guided by a new era

Oh God. I'm listening to the opening theme song to Fullmetal Alchemist: Conqueror of Shambala. And it's so fucking nostalgic. I got into the dub fandom a little late (had to wait for mom's permission to watch), but that was a great show. The manga is even better.

I always get this way at the end of series that I love. But I guess this is what I get for being a week late--extra PMSing hormones. ><

And you know what? I'm not even looking forward to the movie. Because I've seen bits and pieces of it, and know what happens. I really don't like the way it sounds. I mean, both of my favorite characters only show up sparsely at best, and my OTP for the show is totally ignored. Not to mention to insertion of a bajillion new characters, so all the main characters from the original series were shoved aside to make way for them.

Then, there's the only cartoon villain I've ever been scared of--GLUTTONY.

CoS comes out on November 12 in theaters. Sweeet. Emily, I'm going to see it with you, mmkay?

I just got through reading chapter 56 of the FMA manga online.

I was crying tears of HAPPINESS with what happened in that chapter.

There was a lot more Roy/Riza hintage in there. I mean a LOT. It was packed, man. Happy happy happy. :B

Yes, I'm a fanatic. Shut up.


Kelt inspired me to try to spiff up my journal some more. I think I'm just going to organize my icons and maybe change my background image. I'm happy with the color scheme.

Um. I was feeling totally awake yesterday. Had no problem getting to sleep, albeit I went to bed at around one after watching FMA and Stand Alone Complex.

I'm addicted to gummies. I swear, I am.

Help. D:

Now my throat is dry. I think I'm getting strep. Ewww. >o<;;

Yargh.

I tried taping last night's episode of Fullmetal Alchemist, but for some reason or another my VCR didn't feel like working. Oh well. I'm not going to cry bloody emo tears of sadness over it.

I am PROUD. I got to my Mythology and Western Civ homework immediately this weekend. Almost done with Western Civ (I have a huge ass textbook; just though I'd add the random note) and Mythology is halfway done. Oh yes. Not procrastinating for once makes me happy.

I keep saying I'm outlining an FMA fic, but really I've just jotted down and detailed (read: written down to the last word) the exposition chapters. Dx And I've written up the OCs.

My Avatar fic is at a standstill. D: Aargh.

Er, I watched Blood: The Last Vampire. It was forty minutes long, and very bloody. It was okay, but it was short and...not deep. Certainly entertaining, but they should have made it longer and given it a better plot. All it was was: Girl kills guy on subway, girl talks to another guy, girl goes to school for a day, girl kills two classmates who are really demons, girl has to protect teacher who witnessed said demons ---> leads to a military warehouse catching fire and girl nearly getting killed by a demon. Girl eventually kills demons and the teacher reflects on how she never saw said girl again. End.

Well. There were more details. But yeah.

Ew. School tomorrow.

We got snow. Which I HATE. I liked being able to eat outside and swing. I like my friends, but I also like being by myself. My friends at Commi can be way more dense than I ever would have thought. I mean, if I tell them that I'm going to "eat outside by myself", and they see me swinging high up in the air with my headphones on (I wear those big headphones that hook onto your ears. They're pretty obvious), they STILL don't get the message. It's not that I don't like them, it's that I need my own alone time when I'm not at home.

They constantly ask me, "Don't you get bored?". No. I don't. And I tell them that. I've told them that I brainstorm for my writing. One would think that brainstorming isn't boring. Yeah.

It's just annoying that they bother me during my alone time, when I've already given sufficient hints that I'm alone because I LIKE it and wish to be left alone.

Hannah and I went Clagueing on Friday at like, 3:30. Nearly an hour after school had ended. xD Mrs. Reiher, Mrs. Pentzien and Mrs. Wible were all very talkative. I didn't know Mrs. Wible, but Hannah and I had a good time talking to all three of them all the same. I dropped by Mr. Lovelace's room, but he was all, "Hi go away." xD All my other teachers had left.

Yup yup. :P

What I call fun: staying up until 11:30 to watch Bend It Like Beckham. Which is like, my favorite [original] movie of all time.

So that's another soundtrack to tack onto my ever growing list.

I cleared one soundtrack out of the way though--I got a song from the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory soundtrack. So that's one down, several to go. xD *is too lazy to count*

I took like...three naps today. Dx I'm going to to be up late tonight. Oh well. May as well tackle the Bend It Like Beckham OST on iTunes. **EDIT:** Fuck you too, iTunes. Doesn't have it. D<

Be proud of me. I almost (but not quite) read a summary of the Fullmetal Alchemist movie. But no, I restrained myself, for I wish to wait until it is subbed to find out what happens.

Well, I sort of already kind of know what'll happen. I don't know the basic plot, only a few basic things. >____>;;

Um. Yesh. That's Sunday's update.

...Because I can. >O

I'm feeling pretty random today.

I wrote some more of my Avatar fic, I bought some items on Gaia and I made another layout for my Gaia profile.

So now I'll amuse all of you with the Paper Clip-Weapon Story referenced in the previous post.

( Paper )

A new episode of Fullmetal Alchemist is on today. Expect much squeeing later tonight.

As you can see, I re-did my layout and am quite happy with it. The petals were cut from a picture of all the Sailor Princesses, from one of Naoko Takeuchi's artbooks. :)
