Barmy Blue's Bland Blog

Oh, They've changed things around. Honestly, you disappear for three weeks and they change everything, typical .
So I was only away for one week and it’s been three weeks since then. I have no excuse, I couldn’t be bothered to blog. It’s troublesome to note things down only to have to copy/relay them in writing again. It’s troublesome but I decided to do it and I shall. To be honest, I kept leaving it late to make the notes to which I am now referring and the last 3 days aren’t noted either. They’re just strings of words to remind me of the events so I can write them down here. Besides, if I didn’t then I’d forget everything, so it’s in my best interests to get this all down ASAP. Figured I might as well do it now, seeing as it’s nearly 3am and it’s too late to watch my two free hours of anime (well, thereabouts) and I’m not ready to go to bed yet.
Now, the morning of my last entry I neglected to mention that, not wanting to start a new anime series after Ayakashi (that’s Ayakashi not Ayakashi Ayakashi I tell you that caused some confusion when I was looking it up, they’re two different things) anyway, I didn’t want to start watching a new series because I’d on;y see four episodes and then nothing for a week, but I wanted to use up my four free episodes a day, so I decided to watch short ones I watched _Summer OVA (that’s how it was written, I’m not sure if it’s right though) and, seeing as I still had some free videos I watched a compilation of scenes from Final Fantasy 7: Dirge of Cerberus, seeing as I’ haven’t played the game but was curious about the story. It gave me some insight but because it was just the scenes in between game play there are still things I didn’t get. After that I still had some free videos so I finished of by watching the XXXholic movie, then I wrote my blog . In case you’re wondering how I can remember all that, I make a note of the anime and films I watch in a notepad in the order I watch it (the earlier ones may not be exactly right because I started it some time after watching them.) I think I started it round about the time I started watching Vampire Knight and Claymore, but I may be wrong, but I remember that everything after Lucky Star is during the holidays because I was half way through it when I left uni, so that’s Lucky Star, Rozen Maiden, Rozen Maiden Ouverture, Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro – Chan, Venus Versus Virus, D.Gray-man, Rosario+Vampire, Zettai Karen Children, Dragon Half, Girls Bravo, Girls Bravo 2, Bleach: The Sealed Sword Frenzy, Hand Maid May, Ayakashi, _Summer, Rurouni Kenshin (that’s how they were written when I copied the names, but my spelling may not be entirely accurate.) Rurouni Kenshin was started when I got back. I haven’t watched it for a few days because I got to quite a sad part and I’m kind of put off seeing what happens next, but I will. I’ve also found myself some online Manga so I’ll need to add a new list to my notepad, Blood the Last Vampire: 2002, Lilim Kiss, Demon Diary and Call Me Princess. You may or not know, I’m not sure if I told you or not, but Demon Diary, books one and two, were the last Christmas and Birthday presents I bought Tom, the ones Alison’s cousin ended up taking, I bought the first one because there was a baby dragon on the front cover, only when I read it, the night before I gave it to him (We weren’t on very good terms then and I figured why not, it’s not like he’d know and I did buy it myself, I might as well see what I’m actually giving him) only then did I find that there weren’t any dragons in the book (having completed the series now a dragon only appeared once in two of the books , but it was a nice story anyway, so it wasn’t that bad and it didn’t have a gay ending as Tom had predicted (what with the guys looking like girls and the closeness between two of the male characters, which is actually just a close master servant relationship) when he’d suggested that it might have a gay ending I hoped very much that it would, so that if I finished giving him the series, he’d have to read it out of politeness (it’d have been perfectly evil since all of his fantasies involved busty, scantily clad women) but I only got up to the second book). I wouldn’t count it on my proper manga list but Demon Diary was actually the first manga book I read but as I only read it once and as it wasn’t actually for me but a gift for someone else I don’t count it, the first manga I bought for myself was .\\hack legend of the twilight because I’d seen the beginning of the story with .\\hack sign, I’m up to the second book and I’m awaiting the time I need to go down the High Road so I can pop into WHSmith and buy the next one (but I rarely have to go down the High Road.).

Anyway, enough about Manga and anime, You want to know how the holiday went (as you can see I’m still putting it off )
