Posts I Made Today but under a Different Date

Just got off first exam. It started at 7pm and it's 3 hours, so you do the math. Seeing I am behind on blogging, I decided to celebrate the end of the first exam by doing a few entries I wanted to write but never had a chance to write earlier (yes, I know, I am just that sad).

I changed the date of these entries so that they would better reflect on the originally intended dates.

Akizuki's Cosplay Magazine Picture Post -- deserve a post of its own because as pitiful as it may sound Akizuki in any context makes me swoon.

David Beckham Game Post -- Well it's not every day that Canadians get to see Davide Beckham in Canada

Way to Kill Sympathy Post -- It's something I feel rather strongly about

First Flurry of the Winter Post -- What can I say? You treasure what you don't get.

Santa Parade Post - I happened to have lots of pictures. So...

Gundam 00 Post - Well this is the only anime I am following really actively this season

Snow Geese Post -- It is a bit worrying.

-- About a series called Beauty Honey

Handsome manga guy I chanced upon

Last summer, finals' stress manifested itself into mad e-mail checking and generally staring out into space. This year finals' stress manifested itself into some mad manga downloading.

During this craze, I happened upon this manga called Beauty Honey... and I think I found one of the most handsome shoujo manga characters in my shoujo manga reading history.

I actually don't know his name, but here are two pictures of him:



Plot wise, I think this series is just like your typical shoujo manga, but who cares when I get to stare at this guy?

Gundam 00

I thought I left Gundam behind me in grade 9 when Gundam Wing aired in North America. You see, I have not actually liked any Gundam series since then (yes, including the infamous Gundam Seed and Seed-Desiny), and I have also been quite successful in convincing myself that Gundam Wing actually sucked -- and had I not been so young and naive I would have never lay eye on that series as well.

But then, Gundam 00 arrived...

And all hell broke lose.

I will leave the long commentary about characters for another day, but let me just post a picture of the two characters I care most of. Now, they are not the most popular of the cast by far, they are not even all that well developed as characters so far, but they have certain qualities that I find endearing (possibly have something to do with the few similarities they share with Arc and Lumeria?).



*meant to post this post before the OP song post too, but didn't get around to it till now just like the other post
