OMFG THE UNDERTAKER'S FACE I FINALLY SAW THE UNDERTAKER'S FACE AHHHWHATTHEFUCK I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DEAL SDGARESGJDGFRNSLEGRJDFB MY LIFE.

Ok. Phew. I'm done. I know, I know, I'm a little *a lot* behind, but I finally saw it! And god damn. Is he cool. And twisted! I love twisted characters. Ugh, I'm so curious about him, I can't wait until he shows up again.
But for the meantime, there's a new story arc! Ahhhh, I'm so pleased with myself, I'm finally completely up-to-date with Kuroshitsuji! I originally had this deal with myself that I wasn't going to read it online, that I would wait and read the volumes from the library. But the last one available from my library was volume 9, and there was no way I could wait another month before I could read the next volume! Volume 9 was such a cliffhanger! Then again, do any volumes not end in a cliffhanger... So anyway, I caved, and I ended up reading all of the chapters that have been released so far... up to chapter 72. The only problem is that now I have to wait a whole month for the next chapter to be released! Boooooo! It's getting really intense. I love seeing Ciel in a school boy uniform. It's so fucking sexy. Oh, but I feel like a bit of a cougar/creeper, calling a thirteen year old boy sexy... I can't help it though, he really is. Although, I guess most of the time I think of him as cute or adorable. Sebastian is more consistently the sexy one (and MY GOD is he sexy). It's just for this arc, with Ciel in the uniform and with all hidden evil smirks and ughhh my ovaries. I guess I have a uniform/shota fetish or something. But not in a creepy way! Wait, a fetish is creepy regardless. Oh no, I don't want to be creepy! Please tell me I'm not the only one who turns creepy when it comes to Kuroshitsuji! Umm, uuuuum, gotta say something normal about it. Ah, of course, Yana Toboso's artwork is flawless. I want to say that you can see her improvement as the story progresses, but really, her artwork was perfect from the beginning. It's been consistently and unwaveringly perfect throughout. She's so talented! I can't possibly find the words for it, nothing I can say would do her any justice. She's just, so amazing and fantastic. And her storylines are so creative! She's constantly leaving us guessing, wondering, and dying to know what's really going on, what will happen next. The stories are complex, and at times confusing, but not enough to make it unpleasant or un-enjoyable to read, and she always makes sure that things are explained in the end. Unless she plans on coming back to them later (like with the Undertaker, his character and goals and such weren't really explained to us, but we know that Toboso-san will be coming back to him at some point). I really, really respect and admire her. She's one of the mangaka that I would actually go fangirl-ga-ga over if I were ever lucky enough to meet her. I wouldn't know what to say, I wouldn't be worthy... //craicrai

Wow. Sorry about that lump of poorly written fangirling over Kuroshitsuji. I don't know how that happened, I just started writing about it and then I couldn't stop... Sorry~!

I've been listening to BugLug a lot more lately. They're really fucking fantastic. I'm so bummed that I missed out on getting the type of their new album that I wanted. Of course, I wanted a limited type. I just needed a little longer to save, too, but it's already all sold out on CDJapan. Boooo~ Oh well. I'm considering saving and buying it second hand from Closet Child CD instead. Speaking of music, AYABIE's album Answer is released tomorrow! Whooooo! So yesterday I got the email from CDJapan informing me that my copy (as well as my copy of SID's M&W awwww yissssss) has been shipped! Now I just have to wait a week or so for it to arrive here, then I can welcome and caress my new babies to my family! Oh... that got a little weird there. But I'm just so excited! I haven't had new CDs since I got ACE's Tales for the Abyss. Which is also a perfect album ahhh. So many good feels right now. I can't wait~

Ok, that's all I got for now. There's not a lot going on for me at the moment. Just school, sleeping and eating. And stress. But hey, nothing new there.

Lieutenant Riggs Can Totally Fix It~

Why do I always get the desire to blog when I'm watching Regular Show? I guess all it's random gets my creative juices flowing... Eww, I hate that expression, why did I use it? Creative juices.  Am I the only one who finds it... gross? Well, I suppose I do have a bit of a dirty mind. I swear, my mind can make anything sexual. I don't do it on purpose, it just happens! Don't smite me, I really am a sweet, pure person....! I think. Maybe. I guess not. Whaaaaat?

Oh! I've been meaning to mention this for a while now. My manga collection (the ones I actually ownlol) is up to 99 COPIES. That means the next one I buy will be my 100th manga! Wow~ Ok, so 100 manga may not be all that many to a lot of people. But I'm sorry, it's actually a pretty big deal for me. I just think it's a special milestone in my foreveralonealwaysobsessed life. So I've been trying to think of what I want my 100th manga to be. My dream 100th manga would be the Fullmetal Alchemist or Death Note box set, because they're both some of my all time favourites. But right now I can't afford that, there's no way I can stretch my money like that. So I think I might make it the first volume of Black Butler, because I've been wanting it for a while now, and Black Butler is also one of my absolute favourites. I might hold off buying manga until I can afford the Fullmetal Alchemist or Death Note set though... they're really quite beautiful. *O* And actually pretty good value for money!

I started back at school this week wahhhhhh! So far I have been managing to get up at 7am. But it still sucks. I really hate school. It's such a drag. Ohh, I'm turning into Shikamaru! None of my teachers have been cutting us students any slack, though! They're like, Oh it's the first day back? Have all this new course content and this homework assessment and hey how about an in-class essay this Friday! Oh well. It's Friday tomorrow. Yes, I do actually have to do an essay tomorrow for Literature class. And a topic test for History. But I think I'll manage~

Hmm my writing is really ugly right now... I don't like the way I've written this blog. I think I had more things to say, but I really can't remember. My brain is just mush right now, I'm exhausted. I feel like I have whacked out poo brain. Thank you Adventure Time for the diagnosis~

*EDIT* I just noticed that people from my country have been viewing my blog. That makes me both extremely happy and extremely nervous. It makes me nervous because... what if they're people I know in real life? THEY CAN'T SEE THIS BLOG. But then happy, because it may well not be people I actually know. It might be people from my country who actually have the same interests as me, and that's awesome, because such people are few and far between. I would love to meet more Japan/visual kei fans who live in New Zealand!

Check Out My Steaz~

You know that drink brand, Steaz? Yeah, their raspberry sparkling green tea is like sunshine, lollipops and rainbows in my mouth. Aaaaand now I, and you reading this, have that song in your head! Sorry... At least now I don't have Lumpy Space Princess' song in my head. I've had the lines "These lumps, I know you want some~" in my head for about three days. Oh, but it's not so bad, because sometimes it alternates between that song, and Jake's tropical island song. Oh my glob, that has to be my favourite Adventure Time song. It's my ringtone. It's also my wake-up alarm. But seeing as I'm on break now, I don't get to hear it every morning. So I just play it at random throughout the day. I would talk about what I've done/am doing/will do for my break, but I legitimately haven't done/am not doing/will not do anything. For the past five days I've just been sitting on the sofa, playing Sims, watching Adventure Time and wasting away on the internet. My routine is as follows: Get up at 12pm, sit around in pajamas playing the Sims until 3pm, shower and change into clothes with the equivalent comfort of pajamas, watch Adventure Time (it's on every day at 3.30!), derp on the internet, play more Sims, watch Adventure Time again (it's also on at 7pm every day!), alternate between more internet and more Sims, and also watch whatever trash is on TV until about 3 or 4 am, then go to bed. I haven't watched any of the anime that I want to, or read any manga. I'm so disappointed in myself. I'm too lazy to be lazy! Okay, starting tomorrow, it will be a Naruto marathon! Fighting spirit hoyyyy!

Speaking of anime/manga, I just finished a huge request haul from my library. I'm seriously behind on my manga, so this is way overdue. I actually kind of want to slap myself, I should have requested all these books before the break started. Now I'm not going to get them until about halfway through my break. I'm still super excited, none-the-less. For the majority of them, I'm the only person who has requested them, so I should get them in a few days. Apart from Black Butler, of course, the one I'm most eager to read. Right now I'm at 22 out of 33 holds. I decided I'd also request the next volume too, so I don't have to wait quite as long. Status for that volume is at 60 out of 61. Jesus christ. Just in case you want to know what I'm reading at the moment, here's the list of what I have on requested:
Haruka: Beyond The Stream of Time vol. 10
Nosatsu Junkie vol. 5
The Devil Does Exist vol. 8
Lovely Complex (Love Com) vol. 8
Land of the Blindfolded vol. 9
Hana-Kimi vol. 7
Gakuen Alice vol. 11
B.O.D.Y. vol. 4
Cardcaptor Sakura vol. 5
Naruto vol. 7
Loveless vol. 9
Black Butler vol. 9 + 10

I'm actually reading more series than this, these are just the chosen ones for this haul~ I'm a little worried, though, because it's been a little while since I read these the last volumes of these series, I'm not 100% of which volume I have to read next... I thought I had already read Gakuen Alice 11, but the synopsis didn't sound familiar. And Hana-Kimi, I feel like I've read more than just six volumes of it... Oh well, we'll see how it goes! Oh, also, the other one that I am really desperate to read, Loveless 9, is going to take longer because the library doesn't actually have any copies yet. They have ordered some, and so far only two other people have requested it, so I'll definitely be getting a first copy! Yay! That means I get the smell of new book! That sounds weird... But everyone loves the smell of a new book, right?

Oh, just while I'm here, I'll REALLY quickly talk again about Paradeis' disbandment news. So you know how I said that it hadn't really hit me that day, when I read the news, and I just felt shocked? Well, that afternoon, it hit me like a tidal wave. I was just starting to sort out my room and do some cleaning in there, so I turned my iPod onto shuffle, and about three songs in, LoLli★Lollipop, the first Paradeis song I heard, started playing. Let me just say, I ugly sobbed for a good while. Not a lot of cleaning got done that afternoon. I'm glad that there wasn't really anyone at home, phew. I was sad for the rest of the day, but I eventually got around to cleaning my room that evening. I actually threw myself into tidying as a distraction, and ended up listening to some bands that I'm really starting to love. Like Royz. I know, I'm a little behind on them, but they're really good! Also the LEM, Rivet, 2nd Dyz, FUTURISM・BOYZ, and Crazy shampoo. I already liked these bands, but I'd never really given them a proper listen until now. I know, I'm Captain Slow, but better late than never, right?


Ok, this post was a bit of a mixture. I'm tired. Doing nothing all day is hard work. 
Maybe I should go to sleep earlier today.... Pfffffft.


NP - ONE story by 2nd Dyz

I Forgot How To Breathe~

No, really. I'm not being stupid and soppy and teenagerish. I actually have a breathing pattern disorder. It's called hyperventilation syndrome. Mine isn't quite as bad as it sounds. I don't do the hyperventilating, but that's because my case is only mild at the moment. I'm a chronic mouth breather, so that causes me to yawn and sigh all the time, and often feel like I'm hungry and gasping for air. I've just recently started seeing a specialist, so hopefully I will re-learn how to nose breathe. It feels really unnatural and uncomfortable at the moment, but apparently it can take two to three months to be comfortable with nose breathing again. But I'd rather spend three months trying to fix it than live with the feeling that I'm gonna die if I don't get enough air. I know I won't, but that's just how it feels, so I always find my self trying to breathe in through my mouth as deeply as possible. Not how you're supposed to do it. Also, this disorder isn't weird, it's actually pretty common, and can happen to people of any age. If you think you're having issues with breathing, get it checked out sooner rather than later mmkay~?

On Saturday I went to see a one hour screening of Adventure Time at the cinema! It cost $10, and we were SUPPOSED to get free Finn hats, but the dumbass organizers didn't order enough hats, so only the people under ten years old got one. Me and my friends, and numerous other viewers, were like, bitch please. There were only about ten kids under 10. The rest were teenagers, my age. Because let's be honest, Adventure Time is way more suited towards teenagers, or at least people over the age of ten. So we were all pretty mad about that (and we wrote some strongly worded complaints to the movie theatre when we got home), but seeing Adventure Time on a big screen was actually pretty awesome. I love Adventure Time, so I was just really happy and excited, and it was a fun experience. I wouldn't do it again for $10 though... maybe for $5.

So I've recently found some online stores that sell fake nails that I really love. I'm thinking about buying some soon, because I still have birthday money from my relatives. I think I'm going to buy a Tamiya t-shirt first though, the tell-tale sign of a Golden Bomber fan~ Could also be two-tone hair, face paint and Gachapin and Mukku things. XD

Threeeee moreeeee daaaaaays! And then a two week break. I know it doesn't sound like much, but still. I don't have to deal with people I don't like everyday. I can stay in my pajamas all day. I can catch up on some anime, and read the pile of manga I have waiting for me beside my bed. Which, in case you are curious, includes Fairy Cube, Loveless, Ouran High School Host Club, Shugo Chara!, Sand Chronicles, and others. I've already read all of Ouran, but it is my second favourite series ever, so I'm re-reading it for the millionth time. I actually only own four physical copies of it though. Slowly collecting them! It's such a wonderful series, so balanced and lovely. Tamaki is of course my favourite, but Hikaru is very, VERY close. I'm going to admit this now, I was never as drawn to Kyoya as many people seem to be. Mori was my favourite for a chapter or two. And for my first watching of the anime (yes, I watched the anime first), I adored Honey. But I've actually come to really dislike Honey. I can't be bothered explaining it much further than that right now, though. I've also read Shugo Chara! before, it's also a favourite, but I'm yet to watch the anime. I actually think I've written about Shugo Chara! in this blog before... Hey, maybe I'll spend my break watching the anime! As for Loveless, I'm actually up to volume 9, but I haven't been able to find it anywhere, so I'm re-reading what I've read so far. I'll probably watch the anime for that in the break too. But I really want to read on! It's so good where I've come to a stop, and the suspense is killing me! Must find! I don't really like reading manga online, I prefer to hold the actual book in my hand. Of course, I have to read a lot online, but I always check the library first. It's usually pretty good, my library.

Speaking of the library, I've requested Black Butler volume 9, but at the moment I'm number 28 on the hold list. I'm not going to get it for at least a month. Gahh, so much suspense~ =_=

Damn, now I'm in one of those moods where I really want to talk about anime and manga! But I don't have time right now. I know, I'm nowhere near close to an expert, and I guess in comparison to some others I don't read/watch that many series, but I still love it and love to talk about it none-the-less. Maybe one day I'll do a post purely dedicated to my anime and manga!

Wow, long post today. Cool beans. :3
