The first thing that's happened since I've last posted was that two Sundays ago my family and my aunt and cousin went to go see the movie, 2012. It was very apoctalyptic. It reminded me in a way of the movie, Knowing, but this one was entirely about the Mayan Calender. [or is it Aztec]. It was very actiony and almost everyone died. The main character and his family, as always, lived, and they were able to go to the 'ships' and lived after the end of the world. It had it's funny moments but also a few sad ones. THere was one point were I almost cried and another where I did a little. But all in all, it was a good movie :)
And then last Friday was my school's first of two Renaissance rallies. I think I said earlier that I wasn't sure if I was on it or not, but I was ^_^ I was in last place [5th] and I'm still gald I'm on top ten. [Somewhat related, but yesterday during math we got into groups and the group next to us was talking about the rally. They said somethings but what really got my attention was that they said that none of the teop ten are in sports and they're only in clubs and stuff. I thought [I know people who are in tennis/badminton and one of my friends [who is number one] is in dance/drill. SO yeah--those loser are wrong...]
Anyways, I've added alot to my manga collection. Last Wednesday I went to Franks and unfortunately, the guy wasn't able to bring the box of manga but only a bag of a few and I was [kind of] sad because I wanted to buy a lot of manga, but I was gracious and bought most of what he brought. I got: 3x3 Eyes: Legend of the Gesu, which kind of sucks 'cause I already bought the comics of them. Shadow Star volume 4 which I don't know what it's about. Battle Angel Alita: The Last Order volume 7, which is the second series so it's pretty far down the road. Kekkaishi volume 12--I've read the first few chapters online and it looks fun. And Ninja High School volume 4 which is American and I'm not sure if I want to read since it's not really part of my forte...
Anyways, I also looked through the quarter boxes and found some comics that I got: 3x3 Eyes issues 2-5 and Aquarium issues 1-6. The first is the beginning of 3x3 Eyes story which is pretty good too, although there wasn't volume 1. Then there's the Aquarium series, which is only a oneshot and shoujo and so far it isn't bad.
Then on Saturday last, my dad and I had a little 'daddy-daughter' day again. We went out to Jack in the Box and got dinner after he finished painting the house [my mom and her friend went out which is why we were going to do this but it was a little later than planned]. So yeah, we went out and then we hit up Barnes and I had a coupon so I got Legend of Zelda: Four Swords part 2, which I have yet to read. Then the two of us went out to Best Buy to look for a new microphone 'cause ours from Guitar Hero World Tour got messed up the week earlier. I looked around the games and they had three boxes of clearance games and I well....I organized them :D It wasn't as bad as Circuit City since I didn't organize them by groups of the same game. So yeah, I did it and I met up with my dad who found a microphone for the XBox and I told him about this *shudders* High School Musical sing thing that came with the microphone. We got both in case and the HSM one worked and now we can sing again :)So yeah-- TODAY MY BROTHER CAME HOME FROM COLLEGE AFTER LIKE TWO MONTHS of BEING AWAY AND WE ALL MISSED HIM :) Even though this is his third year up at high school, we all missed him and now he's back even for a short while.
And today was the last day 'cause Thanksgiving is tomorrow--woo! four-day weekend :D
So after school today me and both my brothers went to Franks and I was worried that maybe the guy didn't bring any manga, but he did. And I was kind of disappointed that he didn't have some that I wanted but I was excited that he brought a box.
So I looked through it and on the first run I checked to see what kind of stuff he had brought. I then went on a second pass to get the books that I recognized and kind of wanted and I did another pass to make I got every manga that I thought I might even remotely like. [I think there may have been someone waiting for me but whatever--at least I cleaned it out first. Then I looked through some new boxes and I was thinking of getting some Oh My Goddess comics but there were so many I only got one series.
So here's what I got:
MANGA= Alive volume 2, Arcana volume 1, Bt'X volume 2, Kuchijouji Cafe volume 2, Category Freaks volume 2, Cathedral Child, Destiny's Hand volume 2, The Devil Does Exist volume 1, Forest of Gray City volume 1, Her Majesty's Dog volume 3, Kazan volume 3, Kazan volume 5, Legal Drug volume 2, Pretty Maniacs volume 1, Train+Train volume 3, Walking Butterfly volume 1. Gosh, that was a lot to type. :) I hadn't realized that I got so many volume 2s, which kind of stinks since they're not 1s, but I'm introducing myself with new series and some of these I've been meaning to get into however I could never find them or [as in this case] aren't able to start off from 1. [sigh] But yes--there's 16 books here and I got 'em for a dollar each--$16 for the lot!
COMICS=Video issues 1-4. I've never heard of it but the cover of the first issue intrigued me so I lookedand found all four [at least I think there's only four since those are the only ones I found.] I noticed later that they're all autographed wihich is pretty cool. Now, what is this series about? I honestly have no idea. :) I kind of just flipped through the first issue since there wasn't a blurb at the cover page and it looks good. Plus, I got them for free ^^ I'm not joking: I paid $16 for everything, so it's like I got these four for free instead of coming up with some irrational number for the price of each book I got...So yeah--I think we might go to Franks again this Saturday, which would be very awesome :D
