<p>I&#8217;m back!! *sigh* I&#8217;m extremely sorry about the sudden hiatus. I miss blogging. &gt;.&lt; I&#8217;ve been pretty much banned from doing anything fun on my usual computer, so I&#8217;m using another computer, lol. Anyways, I&#8217;ve gotten to do some stuff over break, so it calls for another Blossom Blabber! <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">I seriously need to do these more often.</span> So this Blossom Blabber includes anime, manga, drama, music, blog info, and other. Not a lot at all this time, but enjoy!</p>
<p><span id="more-2035"></span></p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;">Anime</h2>
<p><a href="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Kaichouwamaidsama_scan.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-2055" title="Kaichouwamaidsama_scan" src="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Kaichouwamaidsama_scan-480x449.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="449" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Kimi ni Todoke</strong></p>
<p>Currently catching up on Kimi ni Todoke. Kimi ni Todoke&#8217;s animation quality though is just&#8230;dropping. Everyone looks so weird now. I guess it was to be expected though. So far though, I <em>really </em>want to slap Kurumi for Sawako, haha. She&#8217;s just so cruel to Sawako. I know can&#8217;t wait to see how she&#8217;ll turn good&#8230;O.o Anyways, Ryuu at the moment is also being pretty epicly awesome, as expected. And, it seems like there&#8217;s a little love triangle forming and Kazehaya is getting a bit jealous. Oh well~ Can&#8217;t wait to see more Kimi ni Todoke. :D</p>
<p><strong>Kaichou wa Maid-sama!</strong></p>
<p>I saw the scan for the Kaichou wa Maid-sama anime and&#8230;blergh. It&#8217;s&#8230;not very good, honestly. But then again, it&#8217;s to be expected. Shoujo is hard to be adapted and it&#8217;s pretty hard to keep Usui&#8217;s hawt-ness in the anime. I&#8217;m still excited but also a little worried about the anime coming up.</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;">Manga</h2>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-2040" title="koukoudebut" src="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/koukoudebut-480x462.jpg" alt="" width="415" height="400" /></p>
<p><strong>Koukou Debut</strong></p>
<p>I had recently went to my local bookstore along with my friends, and we decided to check out the manga section. I had found <em>tons </em>of series, and saw Koukou Debut. It had caught my attention before, but this time I actually got to look at a few chapters. Since we were limited in time, afterwards, I decided to check it out online. Gah! I became addicted to the series immediately. It had that cliche&#8217;d shoujo couple, but maybe that&#8217;s why I loved it so much. I haven&#8217;t finished it, but I&#8217;ve loved all of the chapters I&#8217;ve read. It gets slightly more boring mid-way, but I still would like to read more if I could.</p>
<p><strong>Shugo Chara </strong></p>
<p>So far the preview for chapter 48 looks pretty good and pretty heartwarming. Slightly less confusing, lol. I&#8217;m glad to see Ikuto again, but I&#8217;m also sad to see Yoru go. Not much more to say until the full scanlations come out.</p>
<p>Now onto the actual thoughts for the manga series&#8230;</p>
<p>Click to show fangirl rage: <a href="javascript:void(null);" onclick="s_toggleDisplay(document.getElementById('SID1505999288'), this, 'Show &#9660;', 'Hide &#9650;');">Show &#9660;</a></p>
<div id='SID1505999288' style='display:none;'>
<p>NO. WTH. I expected it, but tried to ignore my expectations. Shugo Chara! Encore?! WTH. I hope it&#8217;ll just end the series, and not create a whole new one. Otherwise&#8230;*disappointed*
</p></div>
<p>Ahem&#8230;yup.</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;">Drama</h2>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-2037" title="BloodyMonday" src="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/BloodyMonday-480x360.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="360" /></p>
<p><em>Dramas are my current addiction~ &gt;.&lt;</em></p>
<p><strong>Bloody Monday</strong></p>
<p>After hearing about the second season from ANN, I decided to go check out Bloody Monday. I&#8217;ve been talking about it on twitter for awhile as well. I have to say that it is strangely addicting. Even though it&#8217;s pretty bloody and usually not my type of drama, it somehow ended up being a drama that I actually finished. Maybe it&#8217;s because of Haruma Miura playing the main actor, lol. It may not be the best drama to some, but I personally liked it. It kept me to the edge of my seat and was full of suspense. There were so many plot twists, unpredictable, and &#8220;OMG NO!&#8221; moments that I found it fun because I couldn&#8217;t tell what would happen next. Usually you can tell what will happen, but it&#8217;s just really hard to for this series. I guess another reason I liked it was because it has the same vibe as Liar Game. Both are pretty similar with suspense and twists. So much detail in both of them. However, there are flaws like most drama. Sometimes it&#8217;s overdramatic and you want to smack the characters back to normal. Overall though, I really enjoyed it, and it was able to take up the majority of my time during vacation.</p>
<p><strong>Koizora</strong></p>
<p>Upon realization that Haruma Miura was in Koizora, and remembering that I never finished the movie, I decided to watch Koizora. I have to say, it&#8217;s so beautiful! TT^TT It&#8217;s definitely a touching, quite sad, movie. It has a few older elements to it like pregnancy and well, rape, but nothing explicit is actually shown. Now if only the novel was translated somewhere&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Devil Beside You</strong></p>
<p>I&#8217;ve just recently start the Taiwanese drama Devil Beside You. Ah~ I&#8217;m only on episode <strong>5</strong> so far, but I&#8217;ve loving it. It&#8217;s a little more &#8220;dramatic&#8221; and well, over the top, but I still like it. Maybe it&#8217;s because of how cliched it is&#8230;Nonetheless, I&#8217;m loving it. I really want to set Li Xiang&#8217;s hair on fire though, gar. The mother and father are hilarious and suit each other really well though. Especially the father. He&#8217;s acts like a pedo in a hilarious way, even though he isn&#8217;t one, I don&#8217;t think. Oh and I forgot to mention that Mike He is so awesome. &lt;3 Especially in <a href="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/DBY.jpg">this</a> picture and in the bed scene of episode 3. At the moment though, I&#8217;m loving it and MUST go watch more. &gt;:3</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Music</strong></h2>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<div id="attachment_2038" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 490px"><strong><strong><img class="size-large wp-image-2038" title="FFXIII_KgIK" src="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/FFXIII_KgIK-480x280.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="280" /></strong></strong><p class="wp-caption-text">So pretty~ </p></div>
<p><strong> </strong><em>Uwahh&#8230;all the music stuff is old now thanks to the break. Oh well, please excuse it&#8217;s total late&#8230;ness. </em></p>
<p>Listened to America&#8217;s single, and&#8230;as the preview hinted, it&#8217;s epic! America is just so plain adorable in Hamburger Street and the song is definitely catchy. Ah~ Love it! Also, I listened to the Kimi ga Iru Kara single. It&#8217;s such a beautiful song and never gets old. It makes me upset though that they&#8217;re using My Hands for the North American release. The song just doesn&#8217;t&#8230;fit. I mean, I don&#8217;t have anything against Leona Lewis or the song, and it&#8217;s a decent song on it&#8217;s own, but for FFXIII it&#8217;s just not right.</p>
<p>Also decided to listen to more BoA, and her songs are such catchy songs! I don&#8217;t like the lyrics, but the melodies are just&#8230;awesome. I love looping her songs and they&#8217;re such fun songs to dance to. BoA&#8217;s awesome at dancing too. :3 My friend also introduced me to Brown Eyed Girls, and I don&#8217;t care if they all had plastic surgery, I love their music! They&#8217;re dancing is a little&#8230;&#8221;Whoaa O.O&#8221; but the songs are somehow catchy (that&#8217;s seriously all I can say about songs, huh?). Candy Man is one of my favorites and I really don&#8217;t get why, at all. It is though.</p>
<p>Lastly, in American music and albums, I decided to listen to <em>The Fame Monster</em> and <em>For Your Entertainment</em>. I absolutely adore both albums. I am now officially in love with Lady Gaga&#8217;s music. Her songs are uh-mazing. She&#8217;s a little on the eccentric side, but it doesn&#8217;t stop me from loving her songs. As for <em>For Your Entertainment, </em>I&#8217;ll be ignoring all the controversy about Adam Lambert and say that his album was actually pretty good. O.O The songs are catchy and fun to listen to. Easy as that.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Blog Info</strong></h2>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/K-On.png"><strong><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-2043" title="K-On" src="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/K-On-480x118.png" alt="" width="480" height="118" /></strong></a></p>
<p>It&#8217;s pretty obvious already but I was on a sudden hiatus. I&#8217;m back though, but I&#8217;m still trying to catch up so at the moment blogging is somewhat slowed down. I was hoping for tons of holiday posts, but I guess not. I still need to catch up after my return, so things will slowly come back. ^^ I&#8217;ve also added a new K-On! holiday banner. There were tons of cute K-On! scans, so I decided to finally use one as a banner. It&#8217;s pretty average, but still satisfactory I guess&#8230;</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;">Other</h2>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-2054" title="1109092326a" src="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/1109092326a-480x360.jpg" alt="" width="430" height="322" /></p>
<p><strong>Cell Phone Novels</strong></p>
<p>After watching Koizora, I decided to read up a bit on cell phone novels, which is the genre that the original Koizora was from. I&#8217;m so intrigued at the thought of a cell phone novel. It just seems so cool and interesting to me. *A* Only scary part is the number of chapters. It&#8217;s a scary thought to try to catch up. So I started checking out some cell phone novels at textnovel.com, but to be honest I want to read the Japanese cell phone novels, if only they were translated. Anyways, I started checking out a cell phone novel <em>Secondhand Memories,</em> which is pretty close to a typical Japanese cell phone novel. So far it&#8217;s pretty interesting. So many chapters though! 150+ chapters&#8230;.Anyways, cell phone novels are pretty fun to read to pass the time, but they honestly lack some of the depth of actual novels. Nonetheless, they&#8217;re fun and entertaining if you just want something quick to read!</p>
<p><strong>Keychains</strong></p>
<p>Keychain making: my latest addiction. *A* It&#8217;s really addicting to do, and so many keychains look so cute! &gt;u&lt; Anyways, it&#8217;s not hard to make at all (unless you&#8217;re going for a super pretteh one&#8230;then obviously it&#8217;s going to be hard) and you can get the supplies anywhere. I checked out a couple deviantart tutorials and made a few. Probably my favorite thing to make is flan. Flan can be so cute&#8230;and since before I needed to raise money, keychain making was in considering. Only problem is, they only sell for like a buck. O.o</p>
<p>&#8212;-</p>
<p>Okay&#8230;so that really wasn&#8217;t much in the end. It was probably because I forgot so much stuff after my break that I had to delete lots of stuff from the post because of how outdated it was. Anyways, I&#8217;ll start posting more soon. So for now, seeya!</p>
