I neglect this blog. But that’s ok, it’s not like anyone reads it, right?
Anyways, all summer I’ve been working, gaming, and watching anime. Not too bad, eh? Games that I’ve been playing are Counter-Strike: Source, Warcraft III (mostly DotA on US East Battle.net), Quake3, and I have a 30 day planetside trial. Planetside is ok i guess, but it can be boring. You see the same names all the time when playing so you come to realize that, unlike wow or eq2, there are only a handful of active players. It can be very empty late-night as well.
Object manipulation, right. I like flipping stuff around, and whatnot, as many people may notice. I’ve been spinning poi for over a year-and-a-half, and now I got something else that’s good for manipulating. A balisong (butterfly knife). Granted, it’s a cheap-o, I can master the basics. I’ll eventually get myself a nicer knife, since I need a decent knife for use as a tool (the butterfly is appealing vs. a lockblade since you can open and close with one hand quickly, plus play with it when bored!).
The Anime part:
- Lucky Star - One of the best anime’s ever. It is really funny, and the OP is great (I HATED it the first time, but it grows on you really quickly).
- Umisho - Funny ecchi anime about a school swimteam.
- Hayate no Gotoku - Comedy about a kid who gets a massive debt to a rich girl and becomes her butler. Sounds lame until you realize that the girl (Nagi) is voiced by Rie Kugimiya - best voice actress ever - she did Shana and Louise (Zero).
