School assignments are in ur life, swallowin ur timez
So I made some Youtube videos, but I guess I’m better at writer blogging, which is what I am better at. Ask Junko! webmanga strips have been drawn, but not inked. It doesn’t help my hobbies when I am stuck with yet another assignment, which I absolutely hate because it’s killing my sanity. I hate school outrageously, I wish I was at University already.
I haven’t watched an anime since last week I’ve been so busy, and the only manga I have read this week is Star Trek: The Manga which I bought at the extended Kinokuniya $5 manga sale. I saw the new Star Trek movie, I liked it better than some critics did. I dunno, maybe I have mixed feelings about it now that I’ve revisited my old Star Trek fandom. The only medium of entertainment I never change my mind on is anime at the moment because everything is so uncertain. With manga it’s easier because you can go back and compare panels to opinions, but with anime you can’t do that.
It’s hard, being stuck at school when all my friends I knew when I was younger have graduated and moved on. They just don’t have time for me anymore. My own brother can only manage to talk to me on the phone for twenty minutes a week.
The only really anime related post I’ve done this week was my Card Captor Sakura Sega Prize Figure Review which was posted on Youtube and The Banzai Effect! Blog. The video review of my Card Captor Sakura figure seems to have been recieved well, and though there are no YouTube comments on the video a slow trickle of comments from the actual target audience of the video, The Banzai Effect! Blog readers, I can’t help but feel pleased I actually finished that video and managed to get at least some response from the anime/manga community towards it.
I was going to do a post on some video games cultural theory but yet again, Leigh Alexander always beats me to the punch in ways that are more informed than my limited video games experience. I’m young and naive, she’s seen a lot more consoles than I have. Sigh. Trying to stay relevant in the blogging scene has never been harder. I feel like one of those tiny green dinosaurs from the Jurassic Park novel, I shouldn’t exist, and yet I do, because mankind has created me to think the way I do. Or God has set some plan up, we don’t know because we can’t see him.
