For (a rather early) Christmas this year, we went to Disneyland. The coincidental placement of when we found cheap airline tickets put us there on election day, which was able to give us strength — or at least some feeble distraction — against the...

I love Disneyland!! It is one of my favorite places to be! Now I will talk about it. Our flight was at 5:something on Tuesday morning, so I went to bed extra early on Monday evening. Of course Monday night sleep is always excessively poor, and being excited for...

OK, I have to start out by saying that I think these RK movies have appeared in order of best to least best. In less optimistic terms, they’ve gotten worse as they go along — which does not bode terribly well for any future Jinchuu action we may get. I...

It’s difficult to give a coherent overall impression of this movie, since it’s only telling half a story, so this is more a series of thoughts on various scenes and characters than a complete review. But at least let me start out by saying that this is a...

Aight, I wrote this about a million months ago and then kept forgetting to post it. So here it is. Being a vehement Legend of Zelda fan, eventually I broke down and bought Skyward Sword even though it was a Wii-only title. My parents have a Wii, which I believe my mom...

Guys. You guys. I don’t know what. There are no words. The 2012 Rurouni Kenshin movie is FUCKING FANTASTIC. I really was planning on watching it two or three times before I wrote down my thoughts about it, but not only have my parents usurped the TV at the...

I’ve read and been a fangirl of a number of series in my life, and I believe I can safely say that my #1 pet peeve in book series is what in my family has become known as “Mr. Sweeny’s Autobody Shop:” the need series authors seem to feel to...

So I recently finished reading The Lightning Thief, and thought it was freaking adorable. I will definitely read all the other books one of these days, but for now I’m just musing about what was presented in the first one. What interests me is that, in the very...

This is a concept that I see a lot in fandom, especially anime-based fandom, and I have to admit that I find it rather absurd. Admittedly this question is better than some — “most like” is much better than the fangirly “ZOMG, I’m just...

OK… OK… OK… seriously… who, coming upon a beautiful dead girl in a glass coffin, offers to buy her?? What was this prince planning on doing with her? Somehow this aspect of the story has never occurred to me before. THAT IS FUCKED UP.

It turned out that my mom actually had purchased a ticket for me and just not told me. This was a very good thing, because the show was completely sold out. It was an outdoor theater called Tuacahn just outside St. George, Utah (a town we visited solely because this...

11. Your top three favorite bands. Well, my favorite band is Three Days Grace. I love everything about thems. What I’m most routinely amazed by is Adam’s freaking pitch control; he just sings astonishingly well. I mean, sometimes I’ll need to skip to...

All right, it’s long past time for an entry. I’ve been sick for a week and haven’t felt like posting one, but the things to say are piling up, so I’d better get on that. Lessee… what-all do I need to talk about… This is a lame sort...

24. A photo of you that your hair looks nice in. Oh, wait, did that say “nice?” I thought it said “the most spectacular bedhead evar.” Ah, well. Back when I had a mohawk and eartails, my hair used to do the most amazing things in the morning....

12. A photo of you. What, again?? Come on, we all know what I look like by now. I am fairly narcissistic, but not about my outward appearance! How about, instead, a “photo” of an anime character I feel I am something like (assuming that he’s mostly...
