Mid-Week Notes

So I’ve got my finals starting a week from now, and that means major stresses for this blogger. So I apologies I ahead of time if my posts in the week coming up are less then perfect.

I’ve been listening to a lot of anime themes recently. After weeks of searching, I’ve finally found the Dokuro-chan OP. My computer’s been looping “Pi piru piru pi puri pi” so much that I’m starting to think that my has started to beat along to that catchy rhythm. I find myself at random moments in the day bobbing my head back and forth and singing “Boku satsu Te-yen-shi~, chishibuki doku-doku-Dokuro Chan!” and getting very odd looks coming my way. Oh, the power that catchy j-pop can have over you!

And is it just me, or does the begining of the Tenjho Tenge OP “Bomb A Head” sound like it was written by Pootie Tang?

I just got around to listening to Matt’s audio post, and I think it’s one of the coolest ideas I’ve seen yet in the blogging community. It feels like he has his own radio show, lol. So yeah, Matt, I’m interested in being part of your next one. I don’t know how it would work, but it sounds like a lot of fun! :-)

Also, I would like to express a lot of thanks for all your compliments on the pictures of my girlfriend the other day. She was very flattered with all the attention she’s been getting from it. Considering all the time she took prepping herself up for such a thing, she deserves all that praise and then some!

Now don’t expect to see a lot of pictures of myself. I’m defiantly not the prettiest dude in the world, and to find a good picture of me is very rare. So while I’m hesitant on posting this, it really makes me happy to look at it. My trip to Anime Boston was an extremely stressful event, but my baby made those days very fun for me. Every fanboy out there must find himself a fangirl to call his own. There’s nothing better then sharing your hobbies with the person you love the most in the world.

As you can see, this girl sure knows how to make this boy very happy. (^_^)
