On a whim I decided its time for an entry. I also decided the journal needs more focus…less relaying of events, after all a journal is supposed to be for..or so I think anyhow.  I will continue my traditional writing style of several dot-dot-dots and you will like it goddamn it.

yoz. first off, in response to your straight A blues -- cry me a liver >_< you're fine. next, allow me to address your literary woes by saying that there is No Such Thing as too much manga reading. And yeah, 9/10ths of all youth lit is totally higamimakuri. I'm reading Kaneshiro Kazuki's "GO" right now, which is dark in the social inequality sense of things, but he has a really interesting/funny narrative style. I'd recommend it, and it goes by pretty quickly ^_^

I don't think I'll ever be able to read 吾輩は猫である。 (Tough I do find 『夢十夜』 and 『文鳥』 really pleasing.
