Cool and Spicy

“Why hello there blog, how are you?”

“Me? I’m not too bad thanks. Sorry I haven’t wrote in a while, been kind of busy”.

That is how a conversation with Kihugs would go seen as I haven’t blogged in nearly a month. As I said in my previous blog, I have been busy with college work. I’ve been writing essays and working on my coursework which unfortunately takes up most of my time. It is all preparation for exams and gaining good grades for university, so I’m not all that sorry that I haven’t had time for much else. College work, in my opinion, takes priority over everything apart from family matters (and Chris!).

In between working non-stop and sleeping I haven’t been up to that much. I’ve been watching anime. I’m really enjoying this particular one called ‘Shugo Chara Doki!’. It’s a continuation of the series ‘Shugo Chara!’ which I finished watching before this new series. I mentioned the anime before in a previous blog but I stopped watching it after a few episodes because I couldn’t find the English subtitled version anywhere.

I managed to find this really good anime website (ask me for the URL!) which has a lot of different Japanese anime uploaded (all of them are subtitled in English). So I managed to watch the whole of Shugo Chara! and all of the latest episodes of Shugo Chara Doki!. I’m really happy because it is such a good series and I prefer original Japanese anime as opposed to the American dubbed versions (this doesn’t mean I rule out all dubbed anime though!).

The anime is more of a magical-girl kind of anime so I would say that if you like love stories, cute voices and lots of pink then this anime would be for you. :)

I would also like to say that I am absolutely addicted to the songs in this anime. In both of the series there are brilliant songs. My favourites are My Boy and Shugo! Shugo!, but there are loads more that I like too.

I might be going to the cinema tomorrow with Chris, I think we are going to see that Wolverine film. So I will blog and tell you if it is any good when I come back. If we decide to go, it’s going to be in this cinema that has sofas you can sit on. I plan to give a review on the whole experience and whether it is really worth going as I have never been in a cinema that has sofas instead of the more traditional style seats. It should be fun! :)

I ordered a necklace a few days ago. It is a personalised one in the shape of a heart which as a scroll across the front of it. I decided to buy the necklace with my name on in the scroll because, as you can imagine, I have difficulty seeing anything that has my name on in the shops. It is being made in a shop in London and then will be sent to me, I can’t wait! I will put a picture up when I get it.

Well I think I’ve pretty much talked your ears off, so I shall be going now. Bye! :)

My question for today is:

What are your plans for this weekend? Going anywhere nice?

Azumanga Daioh

Saturday, November 29, 2008

I started watching another anime, called "Azumanga Daioh", today. I think it's a great anime and pretty addictive. I like the characters because they have at least one that you can relate too. This is a little about the series according to Wikipedia (which sums it up nicely!):

"Azumanga Daioh chronicles everyday life in an unnamed Japanese high school in Tokyo, following the trials and triumphs of six girls: reserved Sakaki's obsession with cute animals, Chiyo's struggle to fit in with girls five years older, Osaka's spacey nature and skewed perspective on the world, Yomi's aggravation at an annoying best friend, Tomo, whose energy is rivaled only by her lack of sense, and Kagura's efforts in sports and school".

This is the opening theme for the anime:



I'm thinking about buying the box set because I'm enjoying it that much.


How cute does it look! :)

So *hint hint* if anyone wants to buy that for me! Don't worry, I'm only joking! I'll probably go and buy it myself seen as I can't wait for Christmas. :)

My question for today is:

What do you think is cute(it can be anything!)?

My answer:

Chris. ^_^;

Shugo Chara

Monday, November 17, 2008

I've been watching this super cute anime called Shugo Chara today; recommended by Rima of School Girls' Blog.

It is about a girl called Amu Hinamori who has a reputation of being "cool and spicy" at her school. However her real personality is that of a shy girl; much like me (haha).

It's a sweet anime that teaches you to be true to yourself. Something I suppose everyone should take note of.

Its easy to watch and not too complicated. So I would recommend it to any person who likes shojo anime or just general "cutesy" anime. Check out the opening theme.

I was in college today for an hour and a half. I like Mondays because I only have one lesson.

It wasn't that good though because I didn't get to have a laugh with Chris. He finishes college before me on a Monday so I don't normally see him. -_-;

Oh well, I'm optimistic for tomorrow. I have no idea why but I've just got a feeling everything will be alright and work out.

Some questions for you:

1) What is your "feel good" song?
2) Do you have a hobby? What is it?
3) What is your favourite kind of food/snack?

My answers:

1) Mine would be "My sweetheart" by Tokyo Mew Mew (J-pop I know!)
2) Reading, gaming and looking after Kihugs!
3) Mine have to be Oreos, I love them. =p
