OKAY I'M SAFELY BACK IN YORK ( Read more... )

Today I finished Halo 3!

(What happened to Halo 2, you ask? I finished it yesterday, spent the credits cursing Bungie for the sadists they are, and immediately put in 3 as I patted myself on the back for being smart enough to pick up the cheap copy of it when I saw the chance instead of putting it off till I beat 2.)

( NOW YOU MUST PUT UP WITH MY RAMBLING MWAHAHAHA. )

Sorry for the silence yet again - I have been settling into a house-sitting gig (a very, very cold house-sitting gig), trying to get some actual thesis work done (not very successfully), and reading the first book of the Coldfire trilogy, Black Sun Rising.

( Soul Eater 102! )

Well, I was going to take a day off from Naruto re-reading because there is just too much Danzo, but I'm bored, so here we go!

... but first, I would like to plug a new WSJ series, Assassination Classroom, because it involves a blobby octopus monster who's threatened to destroy the earth becoming a homeroom teacher, and it's adorable. GO READ IT ( Read more... )

Following up from yesterday's reaction posts, a couple of further thoughts:

1. ... actually I forgot what I was going to say here. THANKS, CHAPTER 594. So, how about that Road to Ninja prequel chapter, huh? MOVIE NOW PLEASE.

2. ( Later spoilers. )
