Whoo! I've updated! >.>

No, I didn't pre-order the last Harry Potter book. I can wait one more month when I go back to college. (No sales-tax in Oregon!! XD) I'm not that much of hard core HP fan. In the meantime, I'm just working at Zippy's, a local food-chain service as well as my Psychology 100 class at the local community college. So far, things have been okay.

So what am I reading/watching since I'm holding off HP?

There's Vampire Hunter D, a series from one of Japan's leading horror masters, Hideyuki Kikuchi with illustrations from Yoshitaka Amano (yes, that Amano who did character designs for Final Fantasy from one to six.). There's seven books out that are translated and the next one comes out in September and the manga version is coming out in November. X3
One of my drawing ideas is a showdown between D and Chase Young. It's super improbable for D to fight someone who's not a vampire unless they're in the way of his mission. >.>''''

BLEACH: I'm keeping up with the manga, since downloading subbed episodes are out of the question. (Damn you, dial-up!) Things are getting pretty heated as Grimmjow and Ichigo continue to duke it out. Plus, we get to take a peek at Grimmjow's backstory before he was Arrancar-ized. X3 Maybe a Grimmjow vs Chase Young drawing sounds good too. XD

Gaming: Bought Mario Kart DS since I needed a break from Pokemon and Animal Crossing. My racing skills are improving, but I have a lot to work on. >.> No, I haven't beaten the league yet, because 99.9% of my time on Pokemon is checking the berries I planted. ^^; Besides, I need to level up and what not.

Korean Soap Operas: Okay, so I started to watch one called "Love and Hate", but I'm not addicted to it. I'm more amused at the some of the lack of logic and over-blowing the drama. =_=''''
