I recommend! This anime doesn't have any explosions or space invaders or hot chicks, but it's got a lot of heart. I especially love the Nyanko Sensei character (the cat)~! It's about a boy who can see spirits, and he finds a notebook full of names kept by his late grandmother, who was also able to see spirits. She picked fights with spirits, and when she won she took their names as a symbol of their allegiance. Now, years later, Natsume finds the notebook and decides to go about returning the names to their rightful owners.

Hawai'i was pretty fun! I can see why people love it so much. I can't imagine living there, but it's nice for a getaway. I enjoyed falling asleep to the sound of waves, stars that are actually visible in the night sky, drinking piña coladas on the beach, etc. I've been back for a couple of weeks but I also seem to have suffered the last six months' worth of sickness in the last several days.. d'oh!

So this was what my legs looked like this morning. Now I've got a bit of a sunburn, but it's weird because my skin is burnt in patches. I tried taking pictures of said splotchiness but it doesn't show up very well. More pictures of Hawaii upon my return!

Before.

I love the new M83, and the cover is great too. I was starving after work tonight but I made a detour into hollywood to pick it up at Amoeba.

I've been working a lot lately, so I've been making money, but now I don't have time to spend it. Or so I thought, until I saw these:

The first two of what will eventually be five! (The third will be out this September.) I'm so excited.

I also made a mixtape, here. Songs that are at least 10 years old.

I saw Ms. Cho on Saturday night and I just could not stop laughing the whole time she was on stage. This was my first time seeing her and I'm kinda sorry it took me so long to get on this bandwagon. She was raunchy and gross and beautiful and so fucking funny. Liam Sullivan opened and I had no idea who he was until he came on as his alter-ego Kelly (of "Let Me Borrow That Top" and "Shoes" fame). There was this couple sitting in front of us who seemed completely out of place. The whole time I didn't see them laugh or clap once. Why where they there?! It must be terrible to go through life without a sense of humor. I kid, I kid.

Easter Sunday

Today was Easter Sunday, though that really doesn't mean anything to me since I'm not religious, and I've long since stopped enjoying hunting for vinegary, technicolor eggs. Oh, I guess there are bunnies, but whatever. Since I had the day off, I wanted to spend most of it lazing about in bed, but my family had other plans and by lunchtime we found ourselves picnicking in a park by the ocean. Seeing the sea is always nice, but spending time outdoors always makes me *yawn* tired. All I really want at this point is a decent night's rest.

So, as I've recently acquired a Felicia Blue PSP, I've been checking out some titles for the PSP and these two caught my eye:

echochrome 無限回廊

The graphics are pretty simple, and it's completely in b&w, and dude look at it! It's like playing in an M.C. Escher drawing!

MyStylist PSP Trailer

It comes with a camera so you can take pictures of your clothes, and it can supposedly keep track of your closet and you can even coordinate outfits. It seems to have a lot of fun little features like finding what colors suit you best, create graphs of your inventory based on color, type and season, and even a love-indicator thing and horoscopes, etc.
