The Destination

Okay everyone, I'm in Kampar now! Getting to know my new roommate. Can you believe my luck? She's a Christian and like me, she is a banana too! Wow... Hehe... I'm settling down. Finally getting my online connection. There's no time for manga-ing because we'll be going out soon. (Isabelle going out at night... XD) And, my new roommate will be introducing others to me as well. This had been a REAL tiring day. It took us 5 hours to process and get my room key. The admin is really inefficient. My grandparents are so tired standing around. And it has been a SUPER HOT day as well, I'm still sweating after bathing. (>.<) Am I excited? YES I AM! I'll maybe post a pic or two of my room if I ever get things sorted out and tidy up my side. XD Missed you guys bundles! So long~

The Journey

A bunny hopped along an animal track on it's way home. There are so many things on it's mind. During the two years it moved into the burrow, it made a lot of new friends and had a lot of new experiences. However, the bunny has to move again to a new place where there will be new friends to meet, new things to experience. It will be leaving behind a lot of things that can't be brought along. And of course, all the items that are broken or has no use anymore will be left behind since they simply can't be repaired or will only take up space in the new burrow. It seems that it will be quite small, this new place... Although there are things that will be left behind as the bunny move on, the memories of happy times, craziness and laughter will always remain dear and close to heart. And with that in mind giving it strength, this little bunny will start making it's way in the vast and wild jungle carving a niche for itself.

Shutting Out The Real World

Okay, so I have been reading mangas everyday and not doing anything else. I'm that extreme even I am ashamed of myself... *nods* And because I have become such a nocturnal creature and a recluse, I'm even considering not meeting up with others like I planned to do before I go off. I'm terribly selfish I know but since everyone is busy...I'm sure they won't mind. XP That won't happen though no matter how selfish I want to be. *sighs*

Well, I went through a few mangas in this past week. First would be Immortal Rain. I started reading it in form 4 and it was not finished yet and so was left hanging like Hana Yori Dango. I am so disappointed that it still has not finished its run yet and is wondering what happened to volume 9. I guess it would be left like that for a very long time... Well, at least Rain is still alive although his heart was supposedly crushed in front of Machika and they got back together. I still remember the sentence Machika said in the ending of volume 4 and it seems so sad that time. Rain is SO innocent and cute... I remembered how much I was gushing over him last time. Hehe... ((If Nuri, Shaf and Mich read this, I know how their expressions are gonna look like... XD))

The second one I read would be Hikaru no Go. At least this series was finished although the ending is not much to my liking. Sai is so absolutely cute he reminds me of Gunter but in a way that he is obsessed about Go as Gunter is with Yuuri. XD I bought this manga during form 4 too till volume 4 but my parents confiscated it and I still did not get it back till now. But, the Internet is really a great place! :hearts: I wonder if anyone I know actually plays Go... It's quite a fun game to play.


Next, I went back to a series I love. MARS. Not the planet, but the God of War. I quite forgot the storyline because it's been such a long time but after I read it, I fell in love with Rei Kashino all over again! Hehe... It is truly a sickening and heartbreaking manga. In a world where darkness exists in everyone's heart, two people overcame their past and built a great future together. Absurdly wonderful and it doesn't hurt that Rei is a heartthrob. I was so into him last time that everyone from SBS science know who Rei is although they did not read the manga or even laid eyes on the cover before. ((And again, those 3 will be telling me : Oh, God. Not Rei. AGAIN!? My reply would be : And SO???))


And so, with those 3 from my past, I decide to read another old manga that I wanted to read since long ago. Marmalade Boy. To tell the truth, I was expecting a too romantic and girly manga but boy am I wrong. The first few pages got me laughing so hard I could not even stop for some time. Two married couples, each with their own son and daughter, decided to switch partners and get married and stay together in a big mansion. It was hilarious that the parents are so...weird? I'm not sure that is the word to describe them but they do lack common sense in a way. And I realised it's a really refreshing manga indeed. Sweet in every way. A very happy ending! I knew it would be something like this...

Aha... I really have turned into an extreme otaku... But university is starting soon. And I'm all nerves so this is the only way I can relax at home for now... It's gonna feel so weird. I'm homesick already... =( And I really do not want to dwell on that so, I'm only gonna have my anime and manga obsessions on my mine till then!

And last but not least : LEN! <3

Violin Romance

Gosh... Who'd knew that after reading the ongoing manga of La Corda I'm even more entranced by Tsukimori Len! It's the eyes! It's the eyes!!! He looks stern but his eyes say otherwise. Warm and gentle they are... Seems like all the guys like Kahoko now... Hihara, Tsuchiura, Yunoki, and now (OBVIOUSLY) Tsukimori! He'll be going abroad to study and from the end of the last chapter that I read, she's decided to cheer him on. I wonder what will happen to those two. Definitely hope she's gonna be with Len. They look so good together! Kyaa! I'll go listen to their duet of Ave Maria from the anime again... One good thing about the anime is that I can actually listen to the pieces they played although I think some are different from the manga. Now I'm going to start collecting different versions of the pieces I like. Ave Maira, Tristesse, Tzigane... Kyaa! Len... <3

The Golden String

Len gets special attention! Doesn't he look good in long sleeved shirts? Sigh... Oh well, I always have been attracted to guys who can pull off a long sleeved shirt. XD Or maybe it's just the thought of a good looking guy like him who plays the violin! And those sad eyes! *swoons*

I know what everyone is thinking, why does almost every post in this blog mentions a manga, an anime or a book, am I right? Truth to be told, I was rarely excited about anything else except for those. My eyes practically lit up when the subject is broached. And so once again, this post is about an anime! La Corda D'Oro or The Golden String to be exact! What exactly attracted me to this anime? The opening song and the queue of utterly good looking guys that’s what! What more can a girl asks for? Hehe... And after watching it, I fell in love with the songs and of course, one of the guy characters! Tsukimori Len! He’s aloof but deep inside he’s a real nice guy. Sensitive and is a talented violinist, he has his own demons as have everyone from the anime. There is vulnerability in his character that attracts me. He is very different from Tsuchiura Ryoutarou who looks more manly and strong. Or the evil and mischievous Yunoki Azuma that reminds me greatly of Ootori Kyouya from Ouran High School Host Club. The junior Shimizu Keiichi is weird but in that sense he is absolutely adorable and is really funny to watch. Hihara Kazuki, the trumpeter is just a plain nice guy but then again, sometimes, it’s the darkness of a person that attracts others don’t you think?

Of Pain Caused Through Selfishness

Arrgh! The anticipation is killing me! Kaoru said that the volume after Septenary will be the end of Helios Eclipse but...I can't stand it! Why must there be a storyline where the main guy/girl character must be with the one they don't love in order to save their family/kingdom and leave the ones they love in despair? Helios is INDEED and IDIOT. I'm sure things will be even better if he rejects Countessa and puts his trust in Mineko. But NO, he has to do things his own way and mess things up, getting all jealous about Louis, ignoring everyone around him and hurting Mineko badly to make her want to leave and return from where she came. If he's still an idiot in the 8th, I'll be tearing the pages apart in frustration. Sigh... Why the ones you love must cause you the most pain...? Poor Mineko. I can’t even begin to understand how she must have felt. >.<

Sonnet 29

My Favourite Sonnet So Far...

When, in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes,

I all alone beweep my outcast state

And trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries

And look upon myself and curse my fate,

Wishing me like to one more rich in hope,

Featured like him, like him with friends possess'd,

Desiring this man's art and that man's scope,

With what I most enjoy contented least;

Yet in these thoughts myself almost despising,

Haply I think on thee, and then my state,

Like to the lark at break of day arising

From sullen earth, sings hymns at heaven's gate;

For thy sweet love remember'd such wealth brings

That then I scorn to change my state with kings.
