Sometimes I leave a tab open of Arc Rise Fantasia's website just to listen to the music. ...=u='.
I want that soundtrack bad. I think any soundtrack that Mitsuda-sensei becomes involved with, I'm going to want. But I' also waiting for SMG Platinum soundtrack to show up on Nintendo Club and I really want to buy the Sonic World Adventure soundtrack. But noy only music, there are lots of games I want to buy.
I'm thankful that after Nov., nothing I particularly wanted came out, but now that 09 is around the corner, I have a list;
Ni no Kuni
Monster Hunter 3 tri
Arc Rise Fantasia (iffy, a little)
Harvest Moon Waku Waku Animal march (I want it now!)
Phantasy Star Zero
And then it's a pain to wait, but NMH DS will come out in '10 around my birthday (beautiful).
Cartoons are suddenly sucking up more of me too. I start watching 6teen because of my cousin, TSS is a given, I miss TF:Animated and I'm addicted to TMNT (03) all over again. And lately, there have been a number of nice updates in the manga I love, especially LoveCom and Yankee-kun to Megane-chan. I just hope to get some more One Piece and Fairy Tail soon, the current chapters are amazing. Ah, nice stuff. Well I'll stop nerding out now.
I've done some thinking and talking to my grandma, and I think I want to change my major to English. It's so versatile, and I still have good chances of getting a teaching job in Japan if I want. But I also feel like I want to minor in art, but I guess I had better be more serious about it then. I'm going to give it my all ♥.
Lately, I just want to be sure that in the future, I'll have a job I can enjoy and leave me financially comfortable, but I have this strong yearning to do games and manga too. Who knows. Maybe this new year will bring me answers and a way.
Happy New Year everyone! I hope it's a grand year for us all, and remember, what you do New Years follows you all year.
A great day and wonderful week to everyone.

Inspector Gadget~
For whatever reason, I just can't get the Inspector Gadget theme out of my head although I'm also very tempted to buy the first (two) season(s) when I see them again. That's one of the shows I really adored growing up, and I still love it now, so I think it's worth the buy. I'm glad I could get Samurai Jack and some Batman Beyond, and now I hope to find PPG and Dexter's Lab (and Capt. Planet~?).
And with all the Dragon Ball LiveAct talk (oh lordy it's horrible), I find myself missing Doctor Slump. A lot! I really need to order it again. And it was nice to get my One Piece fill for the week. I'm always excited about it, Oda-sensei can do no wrong. But that also brings me to the point of how most manga-ka are becoming quite bland. I tire of shoujo, except LoveCom (more like it please) and Koukou Debut, which is ending soon for some insane reason. Even the shounen is over done, and it's hard to hunt down jousei and seinen in the mass of shoujo/shounen that exist.
However, I did manage to find Shigofumi. Well, finally get to it. I meant to watch it earlier this year, but I didn't, and I feel ashamed and disappointed. It's so great, but I'm saving half of it to watch beside season 2 of Kaiji. Oh yes ♥.
Also, XSEED is trying to get hold of Riz-Zoawd. Score!! And they want to do NMH DS? I'm in love with them. As long as they don't try any weird censoring or translating. I'm hoping Ni no Kuni gets nabbed pretty fast too, though I'm sure it will.
What a fine night. And now, I'll top it off by rereading W.I.T.C.H. (Dark Summons had a cliffhanger end, dangit) and hoping tomorrow's trip to J-Town goes smoothly.
Nice night, awesome weekend and fantastice upcoming week to everyone!
By the way, does anyone suggest a English major over a Japanese major?

Mukiiii--
I miss playing Zack & Wiki, and I'll probably try and beat it soon. So close ;o;.
Right now, I'm really missing my LoveCom and One Piece, and I hope to see updates soon, and of Shugo Chara, although three chapters came consecutively in like, 2/3 days. I was squealing like a rabid fangirl. Mildly epic chapters too. Now that so much has happened, I have more of an idea for my stuff too. And I hope I can work ut everything in my mind.
I really want to organize myself too ;A;. Since we're going to J-Town this weekend, I'm hitting IchibanKan. And I'll probably pick up some figurines or something. I'll try to stay away from the Korean food too, to make my money last. If anyone can think of something for me to get, please do tell! Fashion mags are one thing, notebooks are another. And maybe an art book.
In other news, I forgot all about Toradora!, but I'll probably wait until a few more episodes come out. And I don't know what'll happen to Kannagi. Since everything that happened with those damn psycho otaku and the manga-ka, I'm hoping the anime and the manga will continue.
Lately, I've been looking at tutorials, gathering inspiration and paying close attention to people's styles. My current style, I don't know how it came to be, and it's kind of too complex. I appreciate it, but it's hard for me to draw, and I never finish anything. I don't know if I should stick to it and try harder, or dumb it down. Gah >3<.
Well, I'll just go party, since finals are finished. I hope I don't have to take math in spring semester. Or it'll be fourth semester in a row, taking what is essentially the same thing... ;u;'

Significant
I started reading After School Nightmare tonight and I'm almost done, I think. I really like it. Some time back, this kind of thing defined me, and I lost that for a while, but I'm picking it back up and finding myself more. I think this is why I enjoy video games and manga so much, they lead me in a way most other media can't, although music does so in an entirely different manner that's equally strong.
More importantly, just now I was talking to my grandma and we thought it was sweet that my mom picks me up and takes me home everyday after my class. Grandma said she probably feels like she's contributing to my education, which I agree with, and then she said, "she's proud of you. Even though it may be insignicant to you, it's significant to us." She said even my grandpa was proud. I felt so touched, and it is important to me, but it's a given to go and sometimes I feel like I'm not accomplishing anything, but that made it worth it and now I feel I can look back on this journal and be inspired and keep pushing. Evrything will build up, my work will take me somewhere. I can take myself somewhere. And everyone gives me their strength, support and input in some way. I just want to make them proud.
I also have to try and remember to love my family. I so angry with more than half of them lately, but I remember that family is what my grandpa was about, so I want to keep family important and support them.
Well, I'm going to get back to trying to finish ASN. I'm in love with Mizushiro-sensei I think.

A la Intro
First journal entry!
I don't know if I'll use this much, but I hope to. It'll definitely relieve everyone on dA of my useless journals, haha. I may use this to keep tabs of my schedule/plans too, and maybe post art once I actually start drawing in my free time.
I can say for sure that when I do use this, it'll probably be full of cartoon and game talk, and probably ranting about my family. Expect much Animal Crossing and Pokemon talk, and Ni no Kuni and such.
edit::
So I was just checking out Ni no Kuni on Wiki and learned that it would reach UK in Nov. 09. That was surprising but hopeful news that it would probably come to US and not too late. And for curiosity sake, I followed the ONM link. What the Heck!?
Why does the UK's ONm give out free gifts!? And they even gave out video games to subscribers!? Why don't we ever get anything!?
We don't even have a Nintendo Club yet! Everyone else beat us! We suck ;n;. Does our Nintendo branch not like us or something...?
