Lucky!

Lately, I've been 'not so lucky'. I've broken my toenail, slammed my finger in a car door, cut my ankle shaving and have a random cut on the palm of my hand. Most people would call that 'unlucky' but lately, I feal as if I am the luckiest person in the world!

Latley, it seems like I have a lot of new friends, and have gotten over all of the bad things in my mind (like keeping grudges). But at the same time I am also so, so sad.

My best friend in the world (I've known her since I was probably 2 or 3) is in Texas and I have not went to see her, even once. All of these years. There's not much I can do about that at the moment, though.

I still haven't replied to a letter that Rakko (My friend's nickname) sent me (It only took 4 days to ship from Texas to California! New record!). I feal really bad. I want to get some stationary to wright on. Or I could always make some with some sharpies...

My wallet has the most money in it for over 3 months (currently $5). You wouldn't believe how many birthdays can fin into a few months! So, I have been sewing, crocheting, and drawing like crazy!

I love getting to know people! It's nice being able to be there for a friend when they're down, crazy, or just wanting to go somewhere and have fun! Getting to know people is like piecing a puzzle together, then you step back and say "Woah!" and look at all the fun times you had. I don't like to let fun times go, so I seem to space-out a lot. Just thinking about last summer when we all went to the beach, or last semester when everyone was talking before and after class. I also like to think stuff like "What would my friends do right now, if they were here?".

I need to start planning stuff to get all of my new friends together, for one crazy epic party! I would invite all of my park day friends, my Japanese Class friends, my Otaku friends, and my old friends (the ones that are still in California, or that can make it).

I must admit, my 'priorities' are kind of off.

1. Friends & Family (that includes my pets, too)
2. Friends of friends
3. Chores/cleaning
4. Me

I think the way it was supposed to go is this, but I'm not sure.

1. Family
2. Friends
3. Me
4. Chores/cleaning
5. Friends of friends

Or maybe it was Family, Me, Friends... I don't know. To me, my friends are family. That's just my way of looking at things. Okay now I'm going to get all mushy and look like the first page in a book:

Thanks everyone for making me the luckiest person in the world! (I would make a list of all of the names but I'm afraid I might forget someone. I wouldn't want anyone to be left out!)

Fullmetal Alchemist (FMA): Episodes 1-51

I just finished the series FMA and am now depressed (also to the fact that I had a frightening phone call earlier from a friend, I won't get into that though). Back to the main subject, FMA IS THE BEST ANIME I HAVE EVER WATCHED IN THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE OF THE WORLD!!!! I haven't seen the OVAs*, yet ... This has to be the best written anime ever,unlike most anime, the manga actually has way less episodes/chapters than the anime itself! And also, unlike most anime I've watched, I decided to watch the dubbed version (English voices). I just couldn't bear even hearing Edward because he sounded so much like Maller (Maaraa, a female deamon from Oh! My Goddess! Her name's Maaraa because there are no l's in Japanese). I wonder where I can find the OVAs? Hmm, They'll probably all be in Japanese anyways *sigh*. Oh well...

Did you know they're airing season 2 RIGHT NOW?!?!? It'll just take another couple years though before they're in English, and that, my friend is another reason I want to be fluent in Japanese (I'm on class 2/4 right now...). So I can speed up the raw form into fan-subs and then once they get popular enough they'll finally get dubbed (which is usually a bad thing, since shows like Fruits Basket cut out so much when they switch it over...). I only got 3 hours of sleep and at the rate I'm going I'm not going to get ANY tonight. Weeee, Zzzzz.... I can see why Rachel (Morocco) and Kaleb basically treat this anime like a god, because it kind of is. It makes you think really deep about things and the way the story line went was crazy! It sucked you in but then at the end it just kept getting darker and darker.... Okay, NOW I'm getting sleepy...

*OVA stands for Original Video Animation. Which usually never is translated into English, sorry dubb fans.

HAPPY!!!

I feal soooo happy!!! I finally know how to play stuff on the guitar!!! I don't even have to read the TAB's anymore!!!! In just two days, I've learned beginner songs like 'Whinnie the Pooh' and 'Indiana Jones'!!! I'm still working on 'Whipeout' by The Beach Boys... It's pretty difficult, the tempo is CRAZY! I also won $10 from a scratch lottery game. Oh! And my manga books finally arrived too! Now I can lend them to my friend. Hopefully she's still into the Miki Falls series... I now own books 1-3 I still need to get the last one (book 4). It's been awesome actually owning manga instead of borrowing them from the library. I cleverly decided to start with the Miki Falls series because it was such a small series, so I don't have to spend a bunch (I'm working on just allowance so, I have to start small.).

And then there was...

THE DENTIST!!!

I have a sort of dentist/tooth phobia (as my brother well knows, making sure to use every last one of his loose teeth as a way to penetrate my un-penetrable field of toughness...) I FLIP OUT, when I hear to oh-so-frightening noises of teeth wiggling..*shivers* NOT COOL! So no one better get any ideas, kay? I had no cavities (once again, for the 9Th year in a row). I've only had one when I was little. You're probably wondering "Why is she so afraid of the dentist when she's only been under the drill once?"... Almost EVERY time I've been to the dentist is so they can remove a compacted tooth, 2 semi-molars and 2 eye teeth removed WITH Novocaine and 4 semi-molars WITHOUT NOVOCAINE!!! That was the worst pain I've ever felt in my life, so I went straight from the dentist to Disney land to hang out with friends. I still had goz in my mouth though (that's how fast I went from death to cake (Death or cake is a comedy act my friends and I use a lot, meaning that things went from Death to well... better than death)! So just make sure to ALWAYS get Novocaine...

Gunslinger Girl: Part 1

"The Light Before We Land" - The Delgados (opening theme)

In truth there is no better place to be,

then falling out of darkness still to see,

without a premonition, could you tell me where we stand,

Id hate to lose this light before we land,
and when I feel like I can feel once again

let me stay awhile, soak it in awhile

if you can hold on

you can fix what is wrong

by a little time

for this head of mine

heaven for us...

"Dopo Il Sogno" (After the dream) -Opus (ending theme)

Whoa! This is probably the deepest anime I've ever watched! I mean, the uniqueness of this anime is ridiculous! First you've got these sweet little girls that can handle AK-47's and Sub machine guns! I wish I could shoot some of the guns in this show! I can't handle the recoil though... The beginning of the opening theme reminds me of Space Mountain at Disneyland... Well the part before the person starts to sing, when Henrietta is walking with her "violin case" (XD there's actually a sub-machine gun inside, flash bombs, extra ammo and magazines)

I am really disappointed with the drawing of season two. It's so different than season one and looks too Americanized (but it's the Japanese one! No dubs for me, thanks.)! I mean look at this!:

SEE WHAT I MEAN! The one's on the top are from season one, the bottoms are from Gunslinger Girl: Il Teatrino (GG season 2)... But the whole story line of Gunslinger Girl was so well thought out! You know when people make movies and everything looks better? That was the first season, it was so unlike any other anime! It had a sort of sadness to it but, not enough to weigh you down... If you want to learn more about the show you should go to Wikipeida. Or you could check out the Character List and learn more about each individual plot...

You kind of have to watch this anime carefully because the subtitles in both seasons are pretty fast and may need some re-winding. This anime is also based in Italy so it can be very confusing to hear people speaking Japanese in Italy with an English theme song and an Italian ending theme song... All and all it is a defendant 5/5 in my mind! I will do Gunslinger Girl: Part 2 and an anime update when I finish the series (I'm on Season 2: Episode 5 right now...).

(The blond Gunslinger Girl (above) is Rico. There were 6 girls but one died in the first season)

The end of Haruhi...

AHHH! I hate it when a good anime ends... I just finished The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya... The last episode is AWESOME though.. There's 14 episodes in all (that's WAY too short for me). I guess the writer has to cut the series short so the plot stays good but, Bleach is still going strong with 300+ episodes! Hmm....What should I work on next? I have a list that I'll update frequently. Well every time I finish a new anime. I'll probably just update the list right after i finish writing this. Till next time, Sayonara.

The Melacnocholy of Haruhi Suzumiya

The latest anime in my brain (and on the computer) is "The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya"! It's a REALLY awsome anime! Right now i'm on episode 6. By the way if you were wondering what onnoko means, it means girl in Japanese. So my URL and title is Anime Girl! I love anime soo much! I try to draw it but, usually fail....Except for the Ichigo drawing Idid! That was the one exception. I mostly draw anime people. Back to Haruhi this is a funny serious about a girl (Haruhi) that constantally searches for "Aleians, Time-travelers and Espers". She doesn't realize that all 3 of those are in the SOS Bragade. And then there's Kyon but, who cares about him. Gotta Love Breath turned me on to this series. Origato gozaimasu Gotta Love Breath-senpai! (Thank you very much, Gotta Love breath!). I think i'll go wach another episode now! Sayonara!
