Sand Chronicles



So I spent about an hour today going through my favorite manga, flipping from page to page.
I realized something: Sand Chronicles is probably the manga with the most messed up characters ever.
Ann's mom dies when she's 12 (suicide). She starts going out with Daigo. Her dad comes back for her. She moves to Tokyo. Fuji kisses her. She freaks out. She and Daigo start fighting. Daigo says he wants space. A while later, they break up. Ann goes through depression stage. Fuji and Ann start going out. Daigo and Ayumu start going out, cause she says that Ann and Fuji have been going out for a long time. STUPID IDIOTS!
Anyway, here's a pic of Fuji and Ann (bottom), and Daigo and Ann (top).

Kimi + Boku = Love?



Don't ask about the title. It's the opening for an anime I like. I couldn't think of anything interesting to put as the top.
Adelais (My Secret of the Solstice account) is level 34 now. Takes forever. As soon as I hit level 66, though, I can change my class to a rogue. Yay! What sucks though, is that the assassin (the next stage) is over done in the costume sense. It has claws like Wolverine! Oh well... The only ones with a cool final stage is a mage and an acolyte (Either way you chose to go).
I suppose I could always be a scout, but they're weird and weak.
sigh...
School starts tomorrow, so less time for leveling. I'll do my best!
We have a fasion show in French on Wednesday... T_T. Save me.
Actually, it sounds fun, but it also seems stupid. We dress in outlandish outfits and parade around the theatre room, while our classmates describe our apparell in French... Blah...
So bad news.
The nest I mentioned earlier was abandoned, and completely covered in snow a couple days ago. Something must have happened to the mother. Sad.
The eggs are dead now.
Haven't seen any more birds nests around our property, though the birds have been plentiful.

I have a song stuck in my head : La Vie Boheme, from the movie RENT. Great movie. One of my favorites...

Anyway, sorry I haven't blogged for a couple days, guys! ^.^ Talk to you all tomorrow.
I'm gonna do one more post tonight tho.

YAY FOR SUGAR HIGHS!

Ooooo


Before I say goodnight for the day, I just wanted to mention that I was lighting the fire in teh fireplace, and I found a picture to document that momentous occasion.
Oh, yes. It just doesn't get much better than this...
X3
Fireeeeee......

Don't Let the Cat out of the Bag

I was emailed this link by Dani. Go check it out!
It's the meanings and origins of all the sayings you've ever heard.
The only one I couldn't find was "Let bygones be bygones!" O_O
What is a bygone anyway?
As Eddie Izzard said, "Oh, it's a thing that's gone by, I suppose... Invasion of the bygones!" Dramatic music... "That's a very British invasion isn't it... Invasion of the bygones... 'Look, we don't mean any trouble!'"
X3
Anyway, check it out when you can!
And see Pixar's newest film: "INVASION OF THE BYGONES!" Coming soon to a theatre near you!

Finished


Finally, after three or so days of pulling teeth, Otori-chan finished Model Mayu. FINALLY! You have no idea how many threats I used on her.
"If you don't finish in the next hour, I'm never calling you again!"
or
"You have a deadline! So if you cross the line, you're dead!"
or even
"I know where you sleep."
Needless to say, none of them really worked... T_T... Stupid Sempai...
Anyway, here is the final draft...
And again, I'll say...
FINALLY!

Forget Plots!

I know I promised a plot here, but you know what? I'm just as bad at procrastination as my artist! I'm not good at writing synopsizes (maybe? O_O). I can't shrink three books worth of story into a paragraph. So in short, you're gonna have to wait a while until we can get everything sorted out, and I can figure out how to get the plot into words...


Here's the basic gist of it, though.

Mayu and Yuki are highschool students, brought together through a double date set up by their best friends. They immediately clicked, and snuck away to escape from Meroko and Ryogo's lovey-dovey atmosphere. After a few dates, Yuki suddenly starts to get distant, then avoids Mayu completely. She finds out that he has terminal cancer...

BOO! Did I scare you?

I don't want to give stuff away... So MWAHAHAHA! I shall stop there.
Eventually, I'm gonna put up pictures of Mayu and Yuki together... O_O Eventually...

Modeling Agencies


So, I know I said that I would talk more about Final Snow here, but I dont have time, so I'm just gonna put up the work in progress that dearest Otori-chan, who I love to death right now, sent me. It's one of the two main characters of our manga. She's modeling for the magazine with Yuki, her boyfriend.
The picture isn't complete, so when I get the finished copy, I'll post that one up too.
