<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('SID1471351616'), this, 'Show &#9660;', 'Hide &#9650;');">Show &#9660;</a></p>
<div id='SID1471351616' 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>

<p>Orz. Title is self explanatory as to why I haven&#8217;t added any posts for a whole week. Again, I apologize&#8230;greatly. Oh and&#8230;I miss doing Blossom Blabber! It&#8217;s already been 3  months since I&#8217;ve done it (time flies so fast~)!</p>
<p>Sooo&#8230;.I have to say that because of that, my planned Kimi ni Todoke and Kobato posts were delayed. And since I think it&#8217;s a little late to post them, I&#8217;ll add them in the Blossom Blabber post. So then, this BB (ahh, I miss BBs&#8230;) will include anime, dramas, music, blog info, news, youtube dump, other.</p>
<p><span id="more-1841"></span></p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Anime</strong></h2>
<div id="attachment_1854" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 490px"><a href="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/BB-KnT.JPG"><img class="size-full wp-image-1854" title="BB-KnT" src="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/BB-KnT.JPG" alt="BB-KnT" width="480" height="273" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Blushing Kazehaya is absolute win. &lt;3</p></div>
<p><strong>Kimi ni Todoke: Episode 4</strong></p>
<p>Aww, a quite sad, maybe bittersweet, episode. It has kept me on a ride of emotions, and I just love how the anime handles each part exquisitely. I loved the beginning though, especially starting it off with the Pin and Kazehaya conversation and adorable Kazehaya blushing. I started giggling like mad when they both looked at each other (lol @ exposed forehead). Ahhh~ Kazehaya is still as awesome as ever~! Unfortunately, the cliche of only hearing half the conversation takes into effect, resulting in a series of HUGE misunderstandings. It&#8217;s really sad, making me hope for it to be all cleared soon. Sigh&#8230;if only Sawako would say her point faster, or not make things sound negative when they really aren&#8217;t. But luckily, it seems that the next episode will have Kazehaya grabbing Sawako&#8217;s hand~ So it seems like things will be cleared up soon~!</p>
<p><strong>Yumeiro Patissiere: Episodes 2-4<br />
</strong></p>
<p>I caught up to episode 4&#8230;even though episode 5 is out, I don&#8217;t plan on watching it raw. Anyways, I have to say that I&#8217;m enjoy the show in all it&#8217;s shoujo cliche-ness. I think that&#8217;s what I like about this series&#8230; Watching the usual jerk-ish guy and the clumsy girl&#8230; xDD</p>
<p>One thing that makes me lol though is the voices. I really do like their seiyuus, but they&#8217;re voices seem a little old for them, especially Kashino. His voice is really deep for a middle schooler (middle school, right?). I just can&#8217;t help but lawl because their voices just don&#8217;t match their height either. Also, theirs heads at some point are disproportionate to the rest of their bodies.</p>
<p>For one though, Hanabusa makes me want to puke sometimes. xDD The <em>too </em>nice guy thing&#8230;and to top it off he&#8217;s narcissistic. xDD Even though Kashino is a jerk sometimes, I still like him because I&#8217;m sure it&#8217;s like the cliche&#8217;d jerk. xDD And I really want to pair him up with Ichigo now that I&#8217;ve seen him in the anime. Lastly, Ichigo hasn&#8217;t failed to make me dislike her because she&#8217;s just like the shoujo heroine. It&#8217;s been a long time since I&#8217;ve seen such a classic shoujo that I like it.</p>
<p>Now&#8230;off to watch episode 5 nonetheless because it&#8217;s Kashino~!</p>
<p><strong>Kobato: Episode 4</strong></p>
<p>Ahh, a pretty good episode. This time, we are officially introduced to Kohaku. The anime portrays Kohaku as a female I guess, since Kohaku is given a very feminine voice. Anyways, I&#8217;m pretty glad that I haven&#8217;t read the manga, so I don&#8217;t have very high expectations, nor am I disappointed so far. Everything seems to flow pretty well in the anime, although I&#8217;d like to see a few more hints of romance between Fujimoto and Kobato. There&#8217;s&#8230;barely anything. Although the ticket scene was quite cute~ And, let&#8217;s see, the Kohaku and Shuichiro scenes were quite cute to watch. :D Although it makes me think the Kohaku should be a girl even more&#8230;</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Drama</strong></h2>
<p><strong><a href="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/BB-LiarGame.JPG"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-1855" title="BB-LiarGame" src="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/BB-LiarGame-480x360.jpg" alt="BB-LiarGame" width="480" height="360" /></a></strong><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Liar Game</strong></p>
<p>Well, I decided to check out the show after hearing much about it from everyone (friends in RL and online). I have to say that I&#8217;m enjoying the series very much so far~ Especially since there&#8217;s the same actress from Nobuta wa Produce (forgot her name&#8230;to lazy to look), and the actor from Hana Yori Dango (forgot his name too). So when I immediately recognized them, I got even more excited to watch the series. I have to say that I love the psychological part of it, and it makes me think! Watching shows like this is always a nice change of routine for me; thus, I enjoy it much more.</p>
<p>I have to say that Akiyama is my favorite character. What can I say? He&#8217;s full of win, pwn, and awesome-ness~ Who cares if he&#8217;s a swindler? xDD Sometimes I want to hit my head when watching Nao though. Let&#8217;s see, and Fukunaga is creepy, period.</p>
<p>Ahh, I really need to finish this series~</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Music</strong></h2>
<div id="attachment_1852" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 490px"><a href="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/BB-America.JPG"><img class="size-large wp-image-1852" title="BB-America" src="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/BB-America-480x339.jpg" alt="BB-America" width="480" height="339" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">America looks hawt in this fanart.</p></div>
<p>Music~! I&#8217;ve been listening to tons of new (well, not really &#8220;new&#8221; but new to me) music than usual. But I guess that came from my Hana Kimi obsession, since most of the actors are singers, and I wanted to check out their songs. So lots of the music featured in this issue will be Taiwanese music (and a bit of American)~</p>
<p>It&#8217;s kind of old news on twitter, but ahh, I&#8217;ve been so into Fahrenheit, S.H.E., and Danson Tang semi-recently. The song that I&#8217;m most addicted to though, is <em>Qing Bao </em>by Danson Tang. I keep replaying it over and over and over again. xDD I just love the catchiness of the song. The only problem is that the rest of his songs aren&#8217;t as fast as that one. The only other one I&#8217;ve listened to that I liked was <em>Ai Wo</em>. And if my Chinese is correct it means &#8220;love me&#8221; which sounds a bit conceited, lawl. Other than that, another catchy song.</p>

<p>As for S.H.E., I really like them now. My favorite member is Ella, I just absolutely love her voice. It&#8217;s so pretty!~ All of them sound great together, but her voice is so surprising. I definitely did not expect that. Anyways, so far, it&#8217;s hard to figure out my favorite song, so I&#8217;ll simply say <em>Zhong Guo Hua, Ring Ring Ring</em>, and<em> Just Be Yourself </em>for my top 3. Even though it&#8217;s surprising yet pretty dizzy to hear some rapping in Zhong Guo Hua, it&#8217;s incredibly catchy to me! Same goes for Ring Ring Ring on being catchy. And Just Be Yourself is song that I love listening to to cheer up. :D</p>

<p>Other Taiwanese music blurbs include&#8230;Confession by Elva Hsiao. The beginning in the PV is so corny and soo weird, and even though I&#8217;m not a big fan of Elva Hsiao, Confession just has a catchy chorus (I overuse that reason way too much) to it. Lots of English in it, but it fits the song I guess. I think the reason I got into this song was watching Ella dance to it in bloopers. xDD Hilarious dance btw. Not into the whole lyrics or PV though&#8230;&gt;.&gt; Another blurb is R. (A.?) Chord&#8217;s songs. Specifically, <em>Ni Ceng Jing Rang Wo Xin Dong</em>. Wahh, that&#8217;s a mouth full. It&#8217;s such a relaxing song. Another person from Hana Kimi (spirit guy!~), with another surprising voice. I love just listening to it, because I want to go to sleep afterwards&#8230;lol. Oh, and in case anyone is wondering, I put both R. and A. because I seriously don&#8217;t know what to call him. R. Chord or A. Chord? Or his real name? O.o</p>
<p>And random music blurbs go here. Let&#8217;s see, Taeyang from Big Bang has released his solo <em>Where You At</em>. Pretty nice MV and song. I love the transition between black and white. Overall, a pretty nice song, and I love the choreography. Also, Hamburger Street preview~ It&#8217;s full of win~! xDD It&#8217;s so dumb it&#8217;s addicting, haha. After hearing America&#8217;s, I decided to listen to France&#8217;s. O.o The second song sounds so wrong. x_x Anywho&#8230;I was looking around for more Bodyslam songs, and I found Believe. I&#8217;m weak for corny inspirational songs (it&#8217;s a song about picking yourself up when you fall), especially with a nice tune, so I really like this song. Especially since I&#8217;ve been so stressed from school, and it helps me feel so much better. :D And lastly, I came across one of my favorite English covers&#8230;ever. It&#8217;s just soo pro and good, ah! I was so surprised when I heard it. When I saw the perosn, I was expecting some random stuff, but it was actually really good. It&#8217;s an English cover of Heartbreaker by G-Dragon. Don&#8217;t let looks fool you.</p>

<p>Well, as in plain sight, I haven&#8217;t been updating much. I&#8217;ve already explained that before. I&#8217;m on an unofficial break. I still am. However, I have a feeling that I&#8217;ll soon get more freetime. Pretty much, the thing that was keeping me down is now over. I still have other things, but that&#8217;ll make things a lot easier now. We have a lot of breaks in the Winter time, so I expect to be able to blog and do more stuff. So&#8230;let&#8217;s hope for the best!~</p>

<p><strong>Eden of the East: King of Eden Trailer 2</strong></p>
<p>The Eden of the East first movie King of Eden&#8217;s second trailer was released yesterday. I have to say that it is really good, and I want to watch the movie. Soo badly! What happened to Akira? The thing that made me a happy fangirl though, was the part when he&#8217;s holding her hand, just like the beginning. It seems that even if he&#8217;s forgotten who she is, he&#8217;s still drawn to her and will always find her. I was sad though to be reminded that he erased his memories. Ahh, it looks so good. But&#8230;.why must it be pushed back to December?! I&#8217;ll continuously remind myself that it&#8217;ll be worth the wait, but I seriously want to see it NAO. xDD *impatient fangirl* Oh and here&#8217;s the trailer:</p>

<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Winter 09/10</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Seems like the chart already came out for the Winter anime season. I&#8217;m pretty disappointed. There isn&#8217;t something that I&#8217;m straight out excited for, but there are quite a few that caught my eye. It seems like a decent season though. :DD Who knows, maybe there&#8217;s something really good hidden there. I haven&#8217;t looked at the chart too closely, so I can&#8217;t be <em>too </em>judgmental yet. Seems like Drrr! (however many R&#8217;s there are), Okamikakushi, and Dance in the Vampire Bund will be there. So-Ra-No-Wo-To looks like some K-On! rip-off though. x_x</p>

<p>Most of the YouTube videos I wanted to add were in the music category, so I just added them there. So here are some extremely lolwut? videos of variety shows. Soooo &#8220;lolwut?&#8221;</p>
<p>Beware if you don&#8217;t want to watch something stupid. I showed my friends, and I immediately burned their eyes. I want to assume gay:</p>

<p><strong>Halloween</strong></p>
<p>(RL ramble) First of all, Happy (late) Halloween!~ Ahh, Halloween on a Saturday is much better for me. Anyways, I hope everyone had a fun Halloween~ I did, since I experienced my first ever trick-or-treating (even though I feel too old to go trick-or-treating, but my shortness makes me feel less so)&#8230;I know, shock~ Well, my family isn&#8217;t into trick-or-treating so I never did it as a kid until now as a teen my friends started getting me into it. Soo&#8230;&gt;.&gt; Feel free to shoot me for being so late into it.</p>
<p>My poor (cruel on Halloween) brother was deprived of his much-wanted experience of robbing children of their candy (pretending to get some from his bag and then dumping it in without any real candy xDD). Anddd&#8230;..let&#8217;s see. My first ever experience was pretty fun. I lawl&#8217;ed at the haunted house, because the guy tried scaring us out in front and I just stared straight-faced. xDD Only one friend actually wanted to go, so I was just dragged in because no one else wanted to. But we never entered it because the guy in the wrinkly mask made us want to turn around and leave. Afterwards, we were told it was a couples thing. O.o Oh! Also, favorite reaction trick-or-treating: the guy at the door simply saying, &#8220;Holy--&#8221; looking at how many people were at his door.</p>
<p>Soo&#8230;yup. It was actually a fun Halloween. :D And no need to explain what my costume was, cause it was lame.</p>
<p><strong>Fundraising</strong></p>
<p>Soon&#8230;soon&#8230;.I&#8217;ll have an online store. Then I&#8217;ll announce it. For now, I guess I could ask everyone ways I could fund-raise. It&#8217;s not possible for me to get a job, so I need to be able to sell things, mainly. So suggestions would be much appreciated! Oh, and I need to include what it&#8217;s for. All in all, it&#8217;s for tuition for a leadership conference I was invited to go to. I&#8217;d like to go, but it&#8217;s really expensive, so I need to earn most of the money myself. But I guess I&#8217;ll explain more when the full post arrives on it. For now, I&#8217;m just asking for suggestions on how I could raise money. :D</p>
<p><strong>Mandarin</strong></p>
<p>I&#8217;m going to try to learn Mandarin!! &gt;:D Well&#8230;I won&#8217;t be able to learn fluently without taking a class most likely, but I&#8217;ll learn as much as I can. At least&#8230;the basics. I&#8217;m pretty tired of saying that I&#8217;m Chinese and can&#8217;t speak it, y&#8217;know? <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">Especially since I&#8217;ve been pressured for awhile to learn.</span> Ever since I started, I&#8217;ve been so thankful of Thai though. xD With Thai&#8217;s 40+ consonants and 20+ vowels, it&#8217;s a smidge easier to replicate sounds. xDD And I&#8217;m thankful of having a parent to turn to. Only problem is, is that they speak a different dialect, and only my mom can speak some Mandarin (isn&#8217;t her native though). *Sigh* I have a long way to go. Pinyin is pretty hard for me though, since I have to hear to replicate the sound. Reading it is a whole lot harder to get the pronunciation correct. Soo, I&#8217;ll be off to learn Pinyin then Chinese soon!~</p>
<p>&#8212;</p>
<p>Well, that&#8217;s it for now~! Had some other stuff I wanted to share, but I wasn&#8217;t sure if I should, so I didn&#8217;t since it seemed pretty long with all of the YouTube videos already.</p>

<p><strong><a href="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Kobato.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1794" title="Kobato" src="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Kobato.jpg" alt="Kobato" width="480" height="500" /></a></strong></p>
<p>Kyaaa!!!~~ I was so excited to watch Kobato, and the series has not failed me yet! So far, I&#8217;m loving it. It&#8217;s just so insanely cute. There&#8217;s also some humor in it as well. I find the animation a really good adaptation from a manga to an anime. I&#8217;m just enjoying the light-heartedness and cuteness to make me relax while watching it. =u=</p>
<p>Kobato is just love~ She has such an angelic voice, as expected with her seiyuu. I think my favorite thing about Kobato is her innocence. It just is what makes the series so cute and fun~ Ioryogi is an awesome mascot, haha. And, Fujimoto is an awesome guy protagonist as well. He&#8217;s just so cool, and had a huge grin after seeing him save Kobato. ^^&#8221; I am so shipping them together!~ Huhuhu~~</p>
<p>Also, I LOVE the music. It reminds me of the good ol&#8217; classic CLAMP days~ I got reminded of CCS music a bit. :D Probably because of how cheerful and cute it is. Maaya Sakamoto is absolute win, so is Megumi Nakajima. I just love the music. It fits the series so well, and&#8230;yes. <img src='http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/plugins/smilies-themer/Pink-Usagi/Smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> Love it. x)</p>
<p><strong>Kimi ni Todoke</strong></p>
<p><strong><a href="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/KiminiTodoke.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1793" title="KiminiTodoke" src="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/KiminiTodoke.jpg" alt="KiminiTodoke" width="480" height="500" /></a></strong></p>
<p>D&#8217;awww, probably my other favorite show of the season (tied with Kobato). Kimi ni Todoke is just such a sweet and adorable series, I just can&#8217;t help but giggle with the shipping and fangirl over everything. xD The animation is beautiful, especially with the watercolor-esque background. I just love watching it so far for the shipping and how sweet it is. The story is just so heartwarming and fluffy, and&#8230;I can&#8217;t wait for more of it.</p>
<p>Sawako is such a sweet heroine. She&#8217;s just so lovable. It&#8217;s pretty sad how she&#8217;s just trying to make friends but everyone runs away from her. Tbh, I don&#8217;t think she&#8217;s scary at all. In fact, I think she&#8217;s quite pretty. :] She&#8217;s also so cute as a chibi, and when she&#8217;s so happy I feel like I want to be happy too. xDD And, Kazehaya!~ He is just filled with so much man-moe it&#8217;s adorable. He&#8217;s one of the honestly nice bishies that I love. He&#8217;s just so shy and cute! &gt;w&lt; They&#8217;re chemistry is also just soo warm to watch I guess. ^^&#8221; Definitely sweetest OTP for the season (or maybe overall).</p>
<p>The music&#8230;is decent. ^^ The opening is pretty good, and I enjoy it. It&#8217;s quite relaxing to listen to as well. <img src='http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/plugins/smilies-themer/Pink-Usagi/Smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> Now the ending music was okay. I can&#8217;t say I&#8217;m totally into the singer&#8217;s voice, because tbh it can get slightly annoying&#8230;<span style="text-decoration: line-through;">don&#8217;t shoot me!</span>. But the animation is pretty, especially with the flower.</p>
<p><strong>The Sacred Blacksmith</strong></p>
<p><strong><a href="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/SacredBlacksmith.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1796" title="SacredBlacksmith" src="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/SacredBlacksmith.jpg" alt="SacredBlacksmith" width="480" height="500" /></a></strong></p>
<p>Hmm&#8230;.a pretty decent series so far. The action is quite generic, so it isn&#8217;t totally exciting. But I think I&#8217;m enjoying it for the same reason everybody else is&#8211;the shipping and interactions with Luke and Cecily!~ Overall, I think I&#8217;ll follow it if I can, since I want to see more of how their relationship will develop.</p>
<p>Cecily is a pretty&#8230;average tsundere protagonist to me. She isn&#8217;t bad, especially since her seiyuu is the same as Ayano from Kaze no Stigma <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">lol at seiyuu bias</span>. The only thing that really irks me is that she wears out her family name&#8230;.a lot. And she does barely anything except talk. But I have a feeling like all characters, she&#8217;ll develop and improve later. At least, let&#8217;s just hope. <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">Oh and lol at her breastplates, they&#8217;re so unreal.</span> Luke~! My favorite character in the series. Luke is just made of absolute win~ He&#8217;s so cool, and the pretty tsun-tsun guy but in a totally awesome way. xDD I just wish his character design was as good as the manga. After seeing it, I&#8217;m like, &#8220;They killed him!&#8221; in the anime. But it isn&#8217;t <em>that </em>bad. It&#8217;s probably just his eyes. xDD Lisa is also a cute loli. So cool with the forging and everything~</p>
<p>The opening, <em>Justice of Light, </em>is a pretty average shounen-like opening. It&#8217;s just pretty decent to me. :/ The ending is totally cute with Lisa. xDD As expected of Aki Toyosaki singing&#8211;a totally cute singing. I love Aki Toyosaki, so yay for more of her singing~ :D</p>
<p><strong>Yumeiro Patissiere</strong></p>
<p><strong><a href="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/YumePati.jpg"></a><a href="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/YumePati1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1797" title="YumePati" src="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/YumePati1.jpg" alt="YumePati" width="480" height="466" /></a></strong></p>
<p>Such a cute series!~ It&#8217;s totally aimed for a young audience, but I don&#8217;t care! I like the series because it reminds me of what classic shoujo is about. Raise your hand if it reminds you of your childhood shoujo!~ It has all of those cliche shoujo elements that I like it. xDD I miss having series like those nowadays, so just having a fluffy show like this makes me happy. I mean, seriously, it even has that time thing in the corner like those classic shows. XD All of it&#8230;just all of it, reminds me of the old cute fluffy shoujo that just makes you happy and smile. ^^It&#8217;s a lot like Kitchen Princess, but hey, I love that series, so I can like this series too, no?</p>
<p>The main character, Ichigo, is a pretty cute character so far <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">who looks like Mitsuki.</span> She&#8217;s obviously infatuated with food. xDD She&#8217;s a clumsy, like a typical shoujo heroine, but still cute. So far, I find her likable, but there&#8217;s nothing much to say after that.</p>
<p>The music is so&#8230;classic shoujo!! &gt;w&lt; So I really do like the opening and ending. I just feel a sense of nostalgia listening to it, aha&#8230;The animation for the opening and ending are also really cute, especially with the fairies.</p>
<p><strong>Nyan Koi!</strong></p>
<p><strong><a href="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/NyanKoi.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1795" title="NyanKoi" src="http://blossommedia.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/NyanKoi.jpg" alt="NyanKoi" width="480" height="500" /></a></strong></p>
<p>Lol, I&#8217;ve tried to watch this series like 3 times, but I haven&#8217;t been able to finish it until now. It&#8217;s like I was meant not to finish the first episode, haha. Anyways, a pretty enjoyable show so far. It has nice humor, although the animation is quite funny at times. Like, the head isn&#8217;t shaped right sometimes. So far, a pretty fun series&#8211;but mainly for the adorably cute cats.</p>
<p>The main guy is pretty decent&#8230;pretty average. Lawl at him with his cat allergies though. Poor guy is stuck in such a bizarre crisis. xD And, lawl at Mizuno&#8217;s interest in yakusa comics. ^^ She&#8217;s a pretty cute character, even though I don&#8217;t think her voice fits her entirely. And the old man is funny&#8230;.and weird. O.o</p>
<p>&#8212;</p>
<p>Overall&#8230;I hope to blog either Kobato or Kimi ni Todoke&#8230;or both! I&#8217;m not sure though. I guess we&#8217;ll all find out once I actually get an episodic post out. xDD Anyways, this was a quick post since I have to hurry onto my schedule. Til next time~!</p>
