Mmm, nostaglia....

Now this song is a blast from the past. When the computer was still on Windows 98, I had to give up most of the songs I had because it ran too slow with them. But I've hung on to this one all through the years. I'm not entirely sure what the attraction is, since I never really even got into Yu Yu Hakusho despite liking Kurama. Could be the awesome ( Read more... )

Heeeeey, does that mean your computer is working well enough to play music again? :D

Nostalgia is a wonderful, horrible, powerful thing...it feels great to recapture moments sometimes, but when you realize you can't have those moments again, sometimes it just hurts.

Changing style is a good thing, especially when it means improvement!

...I like Valentine's Day just because all the candy gets clearanced afterwards. XD OOOH! Maybe they'll have more Milkyway Midnights! I need more Milkyways! FOUR-HUNDRED MILKYWAYS! I've never, ever had a boyfriend on Valentine's Day, and never really suffered for it...a bunch of friends and I would exchange cards and stuff.

Well, it never worked bad enough to not play it. XD The problem was that playing it could no longer keep it from crashing.... And that's still the case. -.-

Yeeep. Sometimes I just wonder where the heck those seven years went.

I do think it was good to rely more on inferred things, but there are times when detail is still needed, and I just feel like I'm not delivering. XD;

Sounds fun! And yum, clearanced candy. X3 Yes, four hundred Milkyways! And Butterfingers!

I never got into Yu Yu Hakusho, so I know nothing except of the premise of a spirit detective. XD ( ... )

It was an interesting show, from what I saw. **is still amused by the female Grim Reaper, wearing pink and riding an oar.** XD And Kurama was, if I remember right, a fox spirit who ended up being born into the world as a human (loooong story that I probably wouldn't tell right). I think he was kind of bad, but when he became human he learned human emotions and feelings and became better? Gah, I used to remember his backstory.... I actually wanted the figure of him during the time they were available. For one reason or another, I never had the money.

You've definitely improved on details. There were barely any at all in the first things you put up.

LOL.

**looks at picture.** LOL! She definitely knows what's really important about the day. XD

Awesome! ^^ Hope you have a good one! What is the day a commemoration of?

**snarks and the pink-clad Mrs. Reaper** And ooh, interesting about Kurama...

X3

XD

Thanks! X3 It's most comparable to Thanksgiving-- there's a celebration of harvest, but there's an added aspect that on this day, your ancestors send their blessings. X3

**nods.** I'll have to read up on that again.... I think the Reaper was single, though. XD

Oh neat! X3

This year, Valentine's Day actually falls on the same day as Chinese New Year so I'll probably be celebrating that instead. XD Never cared much about romance either.

Re: Man, it's just Long Comment Day, isn't it? insaneladybug January 15 2010, 05:10:50 UTC
XD

Definitely. X3 Sharing old memories with the other person(s) involved is much more fun than just musing on them yourself.

Yeah, that was partially it. XD But mainly, I just could not grasp the point of view she was expressing. I could not understand how someone could feel the way she described. I'd never heard of such a thing before and I was quite naive. I'm more jaded and cynical now and I think that's why I get it.

I love my YGO verses. X3 **hugs them.**

LOL. Well, thank you! I am mostly happy with how they go, but then sometimes there's those nagging frustrations.

LOL! Your family is born right around holidays. XD Awesome.

I've got one plushie coming, but that's plenty. X3 It was a long, frustrating struggle, but I finally realized which one I really wanted most. ♥

Aww, I love listening to old anime songs, or old songs in general. Definitely a rush of nostalgia associated with it.

I know what you mean about learning more about characters as you go. Like, the stuff I wrote when I was first discovering FF7, I'll go back and read it and be like, "THAT'S NOT CLOUD!"

Bleh, that stinks about your frustration with details. :/

Hee, I remember Valentine's Day being really fun in elementary school, when everybody brought in Valentines for the whole class. I haven't done much at all for it for a while, though.

Ooh, that's so exciting about your plushie! Fingers crossed that it gets there for Valentine's Day. ^^

Totally. X3 **listening to the theme for Oh! My Goddess (the newer show, I think) now.** Funny, how I have some songs I just adore from anime I'm not even into much. LOL. Though I've actually been wanting to see the new Oh! My Goddess, mainly because of my interest in Norse mythology due to Siegfried. XD

LOL. Yep. Reading some of my early YGO fics is headdesk-worthy. XD; Especially with Seto.

Totally. -.-

**nods.** I think the last time I had a really interesting Valentine's was the one with running errands, etc.

I totally hope so! X3 I calculated exactly eight weeks from the time of sending payment through PayPal would be the 26th. If they're punctual, then it's possible it could be ready to mail by the end of that week. If they gauge by the more common "eight weeks = exactly two months = February 1st" then there could be that extra week. But either way, it should arrive in time.
