sanity is a figment of the imagination

Oh hay, wasn't that the title of the Bones Finale? ...Anyway, um. Today I go into the city and submit my papers. FLAIL. Then I am heading to Best Buy and buying an S-video cable so I can hook up my laptop to the television in preparation for FRIDAY. :DDD Where I plan to spam my friends with Japanese things--dramas, JE....really, just those two. XD

Really, this post is pointless other than:

THE ANONYMOUS WRITING FEEDBACK MEME

I haven't written anything in a longlonglong time, but still. I could use improvements and criticism and yes.

Also, link to the news clip of Sho's kiss in Beautiful Game. Apparently this clip does not exist on the interwebz anymore because that link is my OWN upload of the video. XD Thank god I had labeled the file "Beautiful Game" because, lol, that just made it so much easier for me. lololol. Also, Triv asked for a link to the fancam of Beautiful Game, so here you go!

And in fandom related stuff as well, a short clip from School Kakumei with Yamada's "excuse" and Chinen's proposal. omg, I never would have taken Chinen to be such a smooth talker. o.o.o.o I mean, really, that was kind of amazing.

AND LASTLY. Himitsu no Arashi-chan's Mario tournament thing was AMAZING last night. a;sdlkfjaslkdfjaskljf I just. ...Nino! Um. Yeah. I wonder if there'll be more next week. If so, YES. If not, sadface. I loved watching them get their gaming on. XD (As I lovingly call it.)

...And it's only 11 A.M. XD I don't think I've woken up after noon all of Spring Break. Go figure. XD

i. First of all, I promised jeneralize that I'd upload the Waratte Iitomo Haru SP for her and since it was a pretty big file, I thought I'd post it up for anyone else to take as well.
2009.04.13 Waratte Iitomo Haru SP
Teams: Konkatsu, Atashinchi no Danshi, Shiroi Haru, BOSS, Majo Saiban, Waratte Iitomo
704x396, 2:07:17, 1.76 GB
Download Links: MU (Split Files: .001-.003 are 500 MB, .004 is 310 MB) [.001][.002][.003][.004]

P.S. I wasn't originally going to pick up BOSS, but for some reason, I found myself on the Wiki page and Toda Erika looks hot. Plus, detective drama~ My thing. :D Here's to hoping it gets subbed though. *sigh*

( Fandom related stuff. My love affair with Final Fantasy X. And more on C. Behind a cut because I started babbling about the videos I linked to. As always. )

God, posting takes me forever. I am such a babble mouth. ~_~;;

I realized that in the span of 20 days, I have only posted 10 times (two of those just being today) and then another one.

ANYWAY, the important point of this post.
tinyangl: how lame can i get?
cynicalism: ....not lamer than me
tinyangl: please. i've gone way past that point
tinyangl: you wish you were my level of lame
cynicalism: IS THAT A CHALLENGE I HEAR?
tinyangl: YOU KNOW WHAT, YES
tinyangl: IT IS
tinyangl: NOW HOW DO WE COMBAT LAMENESS?
cynicalism: I THINK CHALLENGING ABOUT IT IS A START
cynicalism: one point for me.
tinyangl: this is going to be an unfair fight, i think
cynicalism: because of my obvious advantage? why yes
What she neglected to add was that it's unfair because we're awarding ourselves points, and we're biased. I supposed that's why she made a POLL. Which I am now redirecting everyone to - it's over here, guys. Everyone here should know how much fail/lame/completely opposite of awesome that I am. I suddenly feel like I'm campaigning. *headdesk*

(Oh, and j_halo7 asked me to upload the most recent Ganbatta Taisho, I'm putting it in this post too. Might as well.
MU: .001 | .002 | .003 Enjoy.)

You own my soul. XP

i. As expected, all I've been doing is watching television in its various forms today. Well, that and writing. Slowly. I swear I'm going to finish this AU meme. Swearswearswear. Because I want to actually finish a writing meme at a reasonable time. lolol. And yes, you should all hold me to it, because if nobody does, my motivation is shit. >.> ...Well, don't worry. I should be able to do this. *nods nods* *pumps self up*

ii. calixa made a post about Library Wars and well, despite the strange premise (In a slightly different timeline than ours, the explosion of information and misinformation came to be considered a direct threat to society. In a daring decision, it was decided to create a new government agency dedicated solely to information management. Some thirty years later, in 2019, the government still monitors and controls information, suppressing anything they find undesirable, but standing against their abuses of power are the libraries, with their special agents called ‘the book soldiers.’) I found myself completely engulfed by this anime and really loving it. My shipping hat was surprisingly satisfied by the ending. Something I so didn't expect. That said, I was more surprised to find that there actually exists a Library Bill of Rights. Interesting. I wish I'd been following this anime than the other ones I'd been watching. >.> Is Itazura na Kiss over yet? And wtf, I want more Himitsu. T.T
ii-a. Also, random discovery. Where's Waldo was on the top 100 list of challenged books from 1990-2000. Reason why? Because apparently in one of the books, there's a topless lady in the top right-hand corner. Ah. And another discovery. Wrinkle in Time was also on that list. >.> I don't know what to take of that.

iii. Now on current dramas. No long over-blown analysis. Mainly because I'm too lazy, and I've only seen two dramas. lol And no, not the two you expect. Well, one of them isn't, at least.
- Code Blue: Fuck, I totally got into this. Mind you, I am a-okay with medical dramas... or really, shows. Because I haven't seen any medical jdramas yet, but I have watched Grey's Anatomy and House. And nihongofrancais compared this to Grey's Anatomy and I totally agree. Especially for the four fellowship guys. Totally see it. Kinda hilarious in a sense, but whatever. I likey. Lots. Yamapi is brooding again. Damn, he's hot. And I love Aragaki Yui here. And then she let her hair down - pretty~ Toda Erika is not one of my favorites, but I could stand her here. Not too bad. And I can so see the comparison to Izzy. And that fourth guy to George. I'm so blanking on names. I'll get it eventually.
- Monster Parent: I know, I know. So not expected right? I picked it up because, lol, I saw a cap of Hiraoka Yuta in it and was like, oh, why not? I'm not sure what to take of this drama. From the first episode, I'm not sure where they're gearing up to go with Takamura's character and the development. Are they trying to make her more human? Because she's all, I'm all about winning. Nothing else matters. Or, she's about the money (who's surprised. Lawyer. Money. Ha.). Of course, it's only the first episode, but still. I really do wonder how this series will go. I can't tell if I'm lukewarm towards it or interested or... whatever. Either ways, I was kinda intrigued and the mother that dominated the first episode? Fucking bitch. I wanted to smack her senseless. That was complete and utter harassment. I felt so bad for the teacher. :\\\\\\ I wanted to ask her if she'd even asked her kid what she thought of the teacher beyond her own interpretation of the teacher's actions. :\\\\\ Am so glad my parents were never like this. I'd be not only embarrassed, but really pissed at them for getting rid of a supposedly good teacher. Isn't there already like shortages in teachers? Wtf.
Anyway, I don't think this has been uploaded so if anyone wants it: On MU: Part 1 (490 MB) | Part 2 (71 MB) | Subs
- Still haven't watched Maou. Will get on that as soon as subs come out.

iv. Yamapi's Popeye Scans. ...wow. So this is how bad his hair can get, huh. I do however like it somewhat in the shot where he's on top of the ladder. Of course, that may also be because I kinda like his outfit there. He just needs to not wet it. It looks like a dead poodle or something on his head. >.>

v. OH. I'd almost forgotten. Silly me. FIC RECS!
1) Waiting by cynicalism. Fuck, guys. Massu is the hardest person in NewS to write about, I think. Seriously, I could go into meta about his characterization (well, Cyn more than me, I'd bet), so for Cyn to write a long fic about him that ranged all the way to nearly 7000 words?? as;ldkfjaslkdjf You know it's gotta be amazing. a;skdjflsdkjf Then again, it's her. And always amazing. No matter what she says. So yes, I recommend like whoa. ♥♥ Tegomass is also there.
2) 30 Day Notice by agirlcalledkil. First of all, PG. Pin. PG. It's lovely. Just. It's sad that that's the most I can say after Cyn's. But really, it's rather soft and sweet, and so much love. Just. Yamapi!fail is love. If only he'd done what was asked first. Just yes, read.

Okay. Back to videos and writing. Yay~ My life.

i. a;sldkjfaskdjfalk;sdjf SO. I MANAGED TO GET MORE JIN/AYA!!!!! Thanks to nihongofrancais, she wrote me Jin vs. Ryo for Aya, with a side of Shige/Aya. a;dlkfjaslkdfjalsjdf So fucking awesome, guys. SO AWESOME. *______________________* THANK YOU, PEYTON, FOR ALLOWING ME TO BE S. :DDDDDDD

ii. wantwantwant. Wish List. Just saying. :DDDD

OH! Almost forgot~ One Hour Porn Challenge tmr. Be there or be square? :D

iii. *whine* My grandmother's going fucking bonkers. She threw another random temper tantrum today. I'm still not sure why, except it had something to do with my brother and I think she was trying to get him to eat or take a shower (which he'd already done) and decided to go about it by hitting him. :\\\\ My sister snapped and told her to back off. What is the matter with her lately? The temper tantrums seem to be coming and going much more frequently these days. :\\\\\

iv. Reccing! Vampire Knight's Opening theme: Futatsu no Kodou to Akai Tsumi single was released!!! *________________* MU | MF.
MORE IMPORTANTLY. The cover for it has the two guys dressed in the Vampire Knight uniforms. Talk about flipping awesome. I still think the opening theme is my favorite of all the four songs... but they're not half bad. :DDDDD a;lsdkfjaslkj So good.

v. Am catching up on Supernatural. OHMYGOD SO GOOD. *______________* Just finished season 2. Am starting on Season 3 with a plate of flan by myside. I am uber ready for this. ;alksdjf;laskjflasjdf Writing plans? WTF was that? XPPPP (I've had this series hanging around in my hard drive for lord knows how long. I am finishing it and so finishing it now. After this... :DDDD We'll see what TV series I'm keen on catching up on. Oh summer time~ What a way to spend these days. *laughs*)

i. Last Friends: I hate angsty dramas. Okay, that's a bit of a lie. I am okay with them, but they're not my first choices. I've always been a fan of comedy... romance... detective dramas (what, I adore them.) But for some god-damn reason, I am ridiculously, and I do mean ridiculously, excited for this drama. I can't even understand why. I flinch every time I see the preview of Ryo Ryo's character beating the shit out of Masami's character (I haven't gotten the names down yet, nor will I until the drama starts). So yes. Um. The newest news clips from Mezamashi (available for download over here - each one has something different, by the way) make me seriously yearn for this drama. I really hope, so much hope, that this drama won't disappoint. as;ldfkjaslkdfj I mean, the cast is flipping fabulous. Please to keep going on this route. God, I really want this out already. I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHY I'M SO EXCITED FOR THIS.

iii. My Dad: He went to the hospital today for some type of check-up. Some kind of test. My mom managed to call me in the middle of class (and for some odd reason, my cell phone didn't go silent like I thought I'd set it) to tell me that he's okay. He has a small ulcer (then when I got home, she proceeded to tell me to be careful of getting one as well. ~_~;;). And yes. I was so frantic when she called during Japanese class though. lolol. I'd even opened my phone after it rang and walked out the door, obvious. One of the guys was like, dude, why are you picking it up? And I went, because it's my mom. And then left the room. I tried to, at least, bow to my professor just a little in apology. :\\\\\ I felt bad for doing it, but I just couldn't help it. This phone call could've gone in two different ways, you know. So I'm glad there was nothing to worry about.

Also, at the dinner table...
Dad: I think one of my ribs is moving. *hand under sweater*
*pause*
Mom: So do you think you have a fracture?
*pause*
..... Nothing said after that.
*in thoughts* wtf?! You're a nurse, check it out yourself! Even better, you work in Immediate Care. You'd be able to deal with that kind of thing. ~_~;;
So yeah, it's probably... nothing. ~_~;;;; Otherwise, my mom would've panicked. I'd hope anyway.

That's it from me~ lol I have half tempted not to post today, but those damn previews prompted me to.

Edit: Actually, I just realized that I downloaded the Prodai SP Preview (what I think was played before the actual SP) - by chance too. Anyone interested in it? Because I'm uploading it now. lolol

I know, this is late. I had work earlier and the week was swamped with school work and I literally wrote up this entire thing as soon as I got home... and then a little after because I had to watch all this NewS media. *laughs* Hope everyone enjoyed.

Yes, guys. I am totz watching this and UPLOADING IT WHOLE. So yeah. The links will be here.

Now, considering how it's still uploading now, I thought I'd watch and LIVEBLOG in the meantime. (Nobody's online so my LJ is my only outlet. *laughs*)

Note: Only .001 of MF is up now. The rest of MF should come up quickly because I uploaded the rest in a batch. MU is taking 2 hours just for one part. ~_~;; So that may take a little longer.

Just keep watch of this. It'll be updated SLOWLY. Like MF links should be up before MU because omg is MU being a brat.

Happy Birthday, Kato Shigeaki!
Despite what you think, you have many, many adoring fans.
