I had gotten off of school, driven home, and was having dinner when I thought I would just check the listings for movies. Much to my surprise there was a diamond in the rough. A Hayao Miyazaki film! The theater is a 10 minute drive and it starts in 15 minutes, so [...]

I found this video rental store about a ten minute walk away. As far as I can tell, it is the closest video store to me. It is on the edge of the college campus and that seems to shine through at this place. They have all of the main stream movies that “everyone” is [...]

Today I checked out some cd’s from the local library and among them is “Hairspray”.

At this time I already know German, but am quite rusty at speaking it, so I currently plan on brushing up on my German skills. After that I would really like to learn another language, but I am not sure which one. To be honest, the language that I would enjoy learning the [...]

I just got done watching Blean after hearing many great things about it, and I really enjoyed it (possibly even better than Naruto). As you’d guess, at this time I am in super Bleach obsession. I just happened to run across this cosplay picture from japan on flickr titled “eiji [...]
