It feels like the last couple of weeks have been incredibly mundane. I think that's mainly because I haven't gone anywhere, and all things considered, it's probably a good thing. I've realized that so far this year, I've had at least one major event or trip that I've gone on every single month. THIS IS WHY I'M BROKE BTW.
We did have a little party yesterday for my aunt's birthday. It was a surprise party, and one of the first times I've ever seen a surprise party actually end up unspoiled. She was genuinely shocked that we had thrown it together, it was nice to see her so happy. :D
The party itself was a lot of fun, despite being Twilight-themed (my aunt's a huge Twilight fan), and my mother and I mostly despising Twilight. Bambi came up with some games (Interview with a Vampire, VAMP Bingo, etc. It was pretty lulzy), and gave the whole book series as a gift. It was one of those moments where the gift-receiver is so surprised that they tear up, and so almost everyone in the room ends up crying. It was such a cheesy Kodak moment, it was disgusting. ;)
And since I had nothing else to do, I mainly started to try and catch up on the new dramas this week. Specifically, Orthros no Inu and Buzzer Beat.
If there's one thing I'll always appreciate about Japan, it's their knack for subtlety.
The bad guy is dressed all in white! The good guy is dressed all in black! There's a gigantic, religious seeming painting looming in the background! SHIT, WHERE CAN WE FIT MORE SYMBOLS?
( It might be spoilery, so I'm cutting it )
One piece of good news is that I've sent out an application for a county job this week. With any luck, I'll hear back from them in the next week or two. :D I really need a job, like, yesterday, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed for this one. |

So, we last established that I love Maou, right? Still true. Trying to keep up and actually download the newer ones, even though the files are huge. D: But since I have nothing better to do with my life, and I don't really care about the Olympics much, more reviews!
( Here there be Maou spoilers! )
Today I found two nearly finished fics, and thought about finishing and posting them. Clearly I did not do this. :\ Productivity, what is that again? I might still do it, since it would be nice to have something accomplished. I look for small victories these days, since I feel useless otherwise.
Oh, and I finished reading Watchmen early this week! Only to find out that FOX has fucked the movie over, possibly forever. Woe is me. D: But seriously, that book? Fucking amazing. Once I finished it, I kind of had to absorb the whole thing for awhile, the last few chapters were overwhelming.
I might be meeting with the guy on Sunday. Maybe. If the plans work out. And granted I won't fail and wimp out on it. |
