I was so incredibly excited for this film to be released that I enjoyed every minute of it ('OMG IT'S SNAPE WALKING! LOOK, RON'S DOING STUFF! OMG THIS IS SO AWESOME!') that I'll probably have to watch it a second time before being able to review it properly, but for the sake of reviewing before the tsunami of amateur reviews after the international ( Read more... )

Well, summer break has pretty much started for me so I finally took the time to finish Resident Evil 4 (PC) and 5 (Xbox 360). I'm completely done with RE4 and was going to finish 5 today, but my controller decided to die on me during a Quicktime Event in the final bossfight (of course resulting in my Game Over) so I decided to take a little break.

I spent all day having the first part of my thesis torn to shreds by my professor and feverishly searching Google Scholar to find Japanese academic articles to back my statements up. It's now almost 2AM and my brain needs a break from all the intelligent smart people stuff (frame analysis! bricolage! サブカルチャーに関係する駄文!) I've been throwing at it for ( Read more... )

As you may have noticed, I'm almost always obsessed with either Silent Hill or Resident Evil. And since Silent Hill has been like a platter of cold french fries for me lately since I finished all the old good games at least 3 or 4 times and got most of the endings and secret weapons/items and the newer games are pretty horrible, I've switched my ( Read more... )

My other rat died yesterday after being very ill for the entire holidays. She was my first rat and an extremely sweet and friendly little creature and I really miss her sitting on my shoulder and watching me type this. I'm on my netbook without any rat pictures on it, so for those who want to see what she looked like I refer to this older post: ( Read more... )

I got my final essay back with a 7/10, which means I'm now officially free to do pleasant stuff! Yeah. My days will be filled with drawing for Neutral and translating for my job, but I'm actually feeling like doing that for a change.
However, since I'll be having so much free time, I'd also love to do some sewing commissions for anyone. So if you ( Read more... )
