   A story, an mini-update, and some awesome art ^^

Note: Most of this post was written yesterday but posted today ^^' Hey minna! ^o^ Posting gets harder every time I delay it. Perhaps I should have a posting schedule… I’m doing alright trying to enjoy my summer and improve the person I am in the mean time :p. We can all be better people, so why not give up a few things? ^-^ *Is trying to say much in least possible grammatically correct sentences* Ah, and on Saturday it was my baby brother’s birthday ^^. He’s now a year old XD. Manga I’ve been reading Kareshi Kanojo no Jijou (a.k.a. Kare Kano). It’s rather enjoyable, although it is long. When I’m done, maybe I’ll go read Lovely Complex :p! Anime I’m downloading Bleach and Naruto now. Need to catch up ^o^. I have been watching Ouran. It’s the kind of anime that leaves you smiling for a while ^-^. It’s refreshing… Hikaru! *Hugs him* Soon, I’ll be done the series! Yey! Anime-related/ Japanese Music ALONES by Aqua Times, the full version, is now out! ^^ I downloaded it. You should check out Aqua Timez Himawari, Ketsui no Asa ni, and Sen no Yoru wo Koete! XD They’re great. UVERworld’s awesome too! The guy doing the vocals (Takuya I believe was his name) is awesome!! You should check out their D-technolife (=love), Colors of The Heart (= love!), Chance, and Endscape. Yui Horie: Life, Rolling Star, and Feel My Soul. XD Yui’s so kawaii! Other songs: Tsumasaki from Bleach (a must-have ^^), Happy Material from Mahou Sensei Negima (thanks Madarame2!), Beck’s Flashback by AKFG ^o^, and One More Chance by Yukie Nakama (Madarame2, this one’s cheerful ^^). Madarame2-chan, Mugen is a cool guy! I never did say Jin isn’t cool…he is! But for some reason…I’m a Mugen fangirl lately ^o^. The “story” I had to tell ya :p Well…it was funnier months back when it actually happened but here it is: I went to go look for Twilight, a book I’ve heard good things about, in a bookstore. We went to a branch of that bookstore we haven’t been to before. I delayed asking the helpers if the book arrived yet. Then I decided to go up to one and ask about the book. He looked like Einstein with his messy curly dark hair (oh and he’s an oldie, for those who wanna know). The man smiled and said, ‘Cana help-pu?’ I said, ‘Yeah. The book “Twilight” was supposed to arrive by now. Do you have it?’ The guy was like, ‘Twi-lid?’ I was like, ‘Er, yeah. Twilight.’ I kept thinking, ‘You better not say you don’t have it…’ He said, ‘Oh okay. It’s downstairs.’ The guy gave me directions to where it was. I nodded, thinking I would just find it on my own later (I do that a LOT and it gets me in trouble :p) I thanked the guy, who replied with ‘You-velcum’ and went to look for it downstairs. I thought, ‘Maybe it’s downstairs because it’s a new arrival?’ since I usually didn’t look for it there. Anyways, I didn’t find it downstairs. I asked another guy for help (he didn’t know about the book) and in the end I went back upstairs. I told the guy I didn’t find it and it turns out he thought I was looking for the TOILET! I couldn’t believe it. Luckily, I didn’t care much. He went on for a minute about how he ‘tod I ment da doilet’ because back in his country (he said he was from Sri Lanka) they refer to it as ‘toilet’ whereas here they said ‘washroom, bathroom, comfort room…etc’. I was like, ‘Thanks for the info’ (in my head). Ah…my family/ friends laughed about it later, lol. Then I went 2 weeks later (I think) to another bookstore (the branch I usually go to) and I told my sister I was going to ask this guy about the book. I told her, ‘He’d better not think toilet again...’ and my sister swore she’d laugh if he did. I told her I would too. And it turns out, he said ‘Downstairs’. I clearly said, ‘I’m looking for Twilight the book’ and he said ‘Yeah, downstairs.’ Great, huh? I laughed and calmly told my brother. *Sigh* I wish I can go back and do that again…maybe I will go up to another Sri Lankan worker and ask him. Heh! And I didn’t even get the book. Order cancelled. Oh well. Here are some Deviant Art art for you to enjoy! (It is so hard to choose a few to show!): -MUGEN! Realistic! By the talented artist Orioto...! -Very pretty CG-art girl by the talented iDNAR -Ed X Winry by CameDorea -Realistic Rock Lee by Orioto! Doesn't he look much better?! XD Hope you liked them! I have 100+ more to share! XD Questions: 1- Do you like honey? Me: Yeah ^^. But I like it best with peanut butter sandwiches. 2- Do you like milk? Me: A must in any household! I love milk! XD (I’m so not Ed, lol) 3- Do you like mustard? Ever tried it with mayo and ketchup i.e. all three in a burger/sandwich? Yum-yum! I like mustard. Of course in a reasonable quantity i.e. just enough to taste it in the sandwich ^^. 4- Harry Potter fan or not? Me: Not really. I haven’t read any of the books or watched the movies much. I may check it out sometime though. *Laughing* Don’t mind me *giggles* I’m just finding some things funny…no no, nothing related to the Otaku…*giggles* Life can be interesting sometimes… Order of the Day: Giggle! ^-^ *Waves* Thanks for the visit! XD ~Lady FJ~
