Sorry!

Hey guys! I'm soooooooo sorry for not posting! I'm kinda grounded but I have my ways around things like this. Anyways, how you guys doing? I've been stressed out latetly but other than that, I think I've been doing well. :)

I have exciting news! I was invited to do a guest post for a fellow blogger named Selena. I met her through my blog and I started to email her and such. It's so cool :D This is my first time doing a guest post and I ended blogging about myself and a bit about Korean Boy bands. I'll make up for the poor guest post.......later. Hopefully you guys check it out! ^_^

Summary: (mangafox.com) An ordinary boy called Sherlock Doyle is captured and forced to put on his twin sister's dress by the Emperor's diplomat to be shipped to a small country called Ehren. His genius sister, Glinda, went missing two days before she's supposed to be sent to Ehren to be an royal tutor for the King's children. The sudden life change is too overwhelming for Sherlock, but he sees no way out. Later, he finds out the disturbing truth about the kingdom's intention with his sister.

I kinda liked this manga. Too be honest, I just started reading it and I was like, "Meh.....". But anyways, the art is awesome but I can't wait for new chapters. I wonder what the storyline has in store for me? :D

Title: Only the Ring Finger Knows
Author: Kannagi Satoru and (Art) Odagiri Hotaru (Uraboku!!)
Genres: Romance, Shonen ai, Comedy, School life, Drama
Reading Direction: Right to Left
Age Rating: 13+ Teen

Summary: (mangafox.com)  At Wataru Fujii's high school, it's all the rage to wear paired rings with the girl you love. Wataru wears one though he is single, and one day inadvertently discovers that his ring pairs up with that of tall, handsome and smart Yuichi Kazuki, the senior classman idolized by the entire school. Though Kazuki has a reputation for being kind to all, when dealing with Wataru, he is strangely harsh. Their paired rings somehow draw them together and the two alternately clash and attract, as they must sort out their budding feelings for each other.

The art is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G~!!!!!!!!!!! Expected from the creator of Uraboku! :D The storyline is so cute and makes my heart burst. You have your typical characters but I still enjoyed the clash of the couples. It's sooo cute~!!!!!

Arigatou~!!

Shugo Chara Challenge Day 25: When you hear Easter do you think of the holiday or Shugo Chara?

Sorry guys! I was totally tired from going to the city last night. Road trips are always fun with friends! I had so much at the mall! My top things that I had to get was books, clothes and food. I got payed on Friday so I was extremely happy about that. I didn't expect that I would be going around with three other people. Man, we went to all sorts of places! My main partner was a makeup freak. The other two were book freaks like me. I'm not much for makeup but my partner made me think about it alot over the weekend. I just started putting eyeliner and mascara this year because well, I have a low self esteem and people always mistake my age. I'm in the third year of highschool and people mistake me for a grade seven, eight or nine kid. Do I seriously look that young?? Sigh...........

The interesting thing was, when I started putting makeup on in front of my younger friends (grades 6-8) they asked me and my main partner to give them makeovers. Being the artistic person I am, I was up for it. Makeup is a type of art! I think its cool! My little friends asked if I have done makeovers before and I said no. They were quite surprised and they were like, "You're like a pro!".

That made me really happy! :) Maybe I should be a makeup artist?

I bought two books: The Betrayal Knows my Name (Uraboku!) Volume 3 and Viewfinder (yaoi....) Volume 2. I was extremely happy when I found that manga in the Comic book store. I was like, "WAHHH!". My shopping buddies were like, 0 _ 0. "Calm down Ro!" (Ro is my nickname in real life...) I was just so happy! Viewfinder is so hot and extremely amazing that I was happy that it is getting published here.

Uraboku!

 

Viewfinder!

I also bought two pairs of jeans (they were on sale!), a cute blue sweater and (my friend made me) powder for my face at the makeup store. The makeup there was beautiful.............but expensive! It wasn't worth it!

Back to the challenge! (Man, I keep talking!) I actually think about the holiday to be perfectly honest. When it comes to the eggs or something, I think about Shugo Chara. It's interesting. I wish I had a shugo chara!

Arigatou~!!

Shugo Chara Challenge Day 4: Favorite Chara

I know I'm such a failure. I have school! School is mandatory! Anyways, it's so weird! Several of my friends my friend group has (or had) a birthday this month! Today is my great friend, Jen's birthday! You probably would know her by her blog, Inside my head. Yesterday was my good buddy, Destiny's birthday. She has a twin so it was quite interesting saying happy birthday to both of them. Also, we have a German exhange student named Jenny. I know, the german exchange students name is similar to Jen's! Jen just decided to change her name to Jen before Jenny came. It's a bit confusing because when I call Jenny (exchange student), Jen would just shift or something.

Anyways, I would just like to say, Happy Birthday to my best friend Jen! :D She's a Big Bang Theory fan! Here's some bloopers just for you! ^_^ BAZINGA! Haha!

The Big Bang Theory Season 4 Bloopers

 



Anyways, my favorite Chara would probably be Miki, Yoru or Kiseki because he is soo funny! Kiseki is like, "My subjects!!! MWAHAH!!" Sigh..............Kiseki is brilliant! I don't know who to pick..............I like Miki because she has a color scheme of blue and an artist. I like Yoru because of his cat-like personality. I like Kiseki because of his interesting personality.

MWAHAHA!!!!

Miki

 

 

Yoru

 

 

Ikuto.............why do you have to be so hot?!? I love his character change with Yoru! So hot!!! :)

 

Kiseki

 



Arigatou~!!

Shugo Chara Challenge Day 2: Favorite Character

Are you serious??? This challenge is making me think! I just finished a whole of math questions/reviews a few hours ago and my head is still hurting from thinking too much! The school day just ended four hours ago (we end at 3:30pm) and I'm still tired! School is so tiring! Today was the first official day! I got to see new first and second years entering our school. Plus, Exchange students! I love being a creeper and welcoming them to our country and friend group. It's fun! I want them to feel welcome. At first its awkward with the langauge barrier but its good for the exchange student for they are learning english. I remember when Amy first brought her cousin who just arrived from Korea. Amy's cousin's name is Elly. I think its soo cool when Koreans have their Korean name but when they come to Canada or something, they get to pick their English name. That is sooo neat! I wish I could do that! :)

Anyways, back to Elly. Elly is slightly older than our friend group but she doesn't look her age. We asians look younger than we look depending who you are talking too. Elly came to Canada to learn and expand her english. That's great for her! I would never be able to leave the comfort of my home in Canada and learn another in Korea or something. My Social teacher discovered my blog and was like, "You should go to South Korea and go to school there! Did you know that we have a sister school there?" Wow, my Social teacher is funny. I love her!

Amu (Left) and Ikuto (Right) Kyyaaa~~!!!! :)

Woah, wayy off topic but I should get going on my challenge! As you have noticed, I like to talk about my life alot. I also like to write so.........................enough about me! On with the Challenge!!

Day 2: Favorite Character

I honestly have no clue. All the characters are great, cute and cool by themselves but together as a group? I'm in love with them!!! I just don't know........I guess I love Amu, Ikuto and Kukai because well, Ikuto and Kukai are hot and have such funny personalities that clash with Amu. I love Tadase because he is utterly adorable but............he will never top Ikuto!!! Sorry Kukai....you will be my third hot guy on my Shugo Chara character list!

Amu

 

 

Ikuto

 

The many hot faces of Ikuto! ////> x </////

 

Kukai

 



Arigatou~!!

Happy Belated Birthday to Ai!

Time: Midnight

Sleepy..............but don't want to sleep! I have this terrible cold. My fever is going away at least but my headache is killing me. (Well, duh, you are staring a bright computer plus its midnight) Here I am drinking lemon tea with lots of sugar. My throat is extremely sore and I can't talk!

Wow, look at how I started this post. Sorry Ai! I didn't want to sound extremely cheesy. You'd hate me! Anyways, I just wanted to dedicate this post to my best friend Ai! Who is Ai you ask? Well, Ai has been my best friend since....................grade six I believe. I can't even remember how we first met. All I remember is that manga has brought us together! :D I'm such a nerd.

Random picture ....... :P Just something to make you smile

I moved away before grade eight happened so I feel extremely bad. Until now, me and her has been exchanging emails and letters. Since I got to see Estelle last week, I gave my birthday present to her to give to Ai. If you are Ai reading this, I hope you like it..................I drew lots of hot guys for you.........I'm sorry if they fail or something!

Arina Tanemura is her favorite mangaka ever! Arina Tanemura is amazing~! Ai's birthday is on August 9th same with my other two friends, Elly and Aaryn. I unfortunately missed it because I was camping. Please don't hate me! > x < Haha!

When I was with Estelle, I got her into the Korean drama, You're Beautiful. My mission is to get Ai addicted to this drama too. Especially the songs. They are amazing! Shall I put some here for you? Doesn't matter if you say yes or no, I'm putting them on anyways! MWHAHAHA! I am the master!

....

I'm seriously going crazy. Great, being sick also means going insane. You know what they say, if the world is sane, you just need to be insane just to make life more interesting.

Current Time: sdfjdfsieieijaljsfdilewje (1am)

Please don't get confused. By this time, its probably..................one am. I just quit this post and crashed at this point. What I mean by crashed is, getting a terrible headache and laying my head on this laptop like it was my pillow for half and hour until I realized it wasn't my pillow. Sorry if I'm being confusing but hey, life is confusing!

Current Time: 12:00 Lunch time!

I went to bed at like, 2am. I finally woke up and ate just now so hopefully there isn't anymore distractions. Please forgive me Ai. Now where were we? Ah, yes, the songs! Here they are. Ai, if you are reading this, you better listen to them and watch the drama with Estelle or something!

As Ever

Promise

Without Words



Well, I guess this is the end of this post. Wait! I have another song, the birthday song! Of course its going to be a Japanese song.

권보아(Gwon Boa) - Happy Birthday(Japanese)

I wish I could draw like you...............Love you tons!!! Arigatou~!!

Friends, Food, Cats and Camping

*Sigh* I just finished all of the days that was needed for my manga challenge! I also finished work so I'm sorry if some things don't make sense. Also, I am catching a cold! (NOO!) *Cough* *Cough* I can hardly speak!

Anyways, I have missed a whole week of blogging last week so I just want to pile all of my excuses/adventures in this post. I have lots of pictures and information I will share with you today. If you just want the manga recomendations, I will put them throughout this post because I am extremely lazy to put them in another post. (Man, this post is going to be the longest I have ever written!)

I'm feeling a fever at this point..........on with this post!

Ok, where do I start? Oh, yes, the friends. On Friday August 3rd, I got to see my best friend for the first time since last Christmas. Her name is Estelle (blog name!) and she has quite of blogs. I started blogging before she has and she is doing quite well! :) You can help her out by checking out her blog! She does alot of music recommendations on the one blog.......I can't remember.

I want my pillow......I need sleep!

This blog: http://kiritsuko.blogspot.ca/ or this blog! http://echo-in-the-wind.blogspot.ca/. Whatever seems appealing to you, go ahead and read them!

Anyways, I got to spend three days and two nights (not long enough!) with her. I missed Estelle soooo much! I'm not kidding. It makes my day whenever she emails me. At times, I feel extremely bad because she ALWAYS gets/sends me a whole bunch of manga's and she doesn't want any payment! Thanks to her, my manga collection has grown ALOT since last year.

When I saw Estelle waiting with her Nannie and Grandpa, I was like, "She hasn't changed a bit!". Estelle showed me around her Residence which was extremely cool. She was living on her own for one month? I maybe wrong. If I'm wrong, she'll comment or send me an email! :)

Here are some pictures of food that I ate and stuff I bought while I stayed at her Nannies house! The first night, Grandpa (I just call Estelles grandpa that, I don't have one) treated us to Vietnamese food. At first, I was hestitant but I ended up loving the food. I order this teriyaki meet with vegetables. It was amazing! My tummy was extremely satisfied. The food was delicious~!!

On the first night, me and Estelle talked up a storm until 3 am. We just didn't talk but I successfully got her into the Korean Drama, You're Beautiful. We watched three episdoes? I can't remember. It was like a week ago!



The next morning, we woke up at around 9:30 am. Nannie drove us over to Starbucks for breakfast. Man, I felt like I was being spoiled! Estelle bought me breakfast (DARN YOU! I owe you now!) and we talked with Nannies friend for a bit. My drink is on the left (Hot chocolate-yum!) and Estelles drink is on the right. I forgot what the drink was called...... :)

After about an hour or so, Nannie set us loose at in Chapters. You see, the Starbucks we went to was attached to Chapters. I was getting books for my other best friend because her birthday was on August 9th. I felt bad for not getting her anything last year so I made sure I got her something amazing. Same for Estelle, I didn't get the time to send her birthday persent to her so I got payed for one of her books.



Doesn't the art look amazing??? Plus, theres hot guys!

There were many manga books there! I was contemplating on what books to get! I had the manga Sakurahime Kaden vol 3 and 4 for my best friend's birthday and Estelles Samurai book...........I needed to get myself a book! I ended up getting vol 2 (no volume one!) of the manga, "The Betrayal Knows My Name" aka, "Uraboku" in Japanese.

After our adventure at the bookstore (I love the bookstore), me and Estelle went to a Heritage Festival that was happening. It was extremely cool! It was like traveling the world in three hours! We went to this Indian stand where people were getting Henna's which are just temporary tattoo's. Estelle told me that the black Henna's can cause cancer so we both got brown ones instead.

Alright. Me and Estelle went to the Taiwanese stand where we both got extremely cool umbrella's. I also got this awesome Pikachu hat! I know I'm such a kid but hey, it was awesome and I couldn't resist its cuteness...... :D

I'm the Blue Umbrella on the left! Cool huh? :D

The cool thing about this Heritage Festival was I got to see dances! For the first time I got to see traditional Filipino dancing. It was really neat! I got to experience my culture!

After a while, me and Estelle found the Japan stand! It was sooo cool!

Me and Estelle got bookmarks with our Japanese name! :)

After that amazing adventure, we went home. We took the bus and it was really cool! I haven't been on the bus for a while! I live in a town so don't judge me!

Anyways, Nannie took us to the store to buy food for dinner. I ended up getting Pocky there.

For dinner, we had amazing hamburgers! We ate outside where it looked pretty bad because there was a storm coming! The lightning was scary....

It got pretty bad after everyone was done so we all went inside to eat desert. It was amazing!! I love you Nannie!

Here are some manga's if you are craving some! :) Time to take a break from reading my life story and take the time to read my manga recommendations!

Contending for a chance at revival, a thrilling buddy action story!

This manga is utterly interesting! It is marked as "new" on mangafox.com so I can't wait for new chapters to come out! The art isn't so bad!

Ok, back to my life story again! If these manga recommendations didn't satisfy your cravings, there is still more to come!

As for the Cat portion of my post, I temporarily had a cat. It was interesting. I met this cat on Thursday August 2nd before I went on my Adventure with Estelle. I looked outside of my house one afternoon, I heard a meowing noise. I'm pretty sure I wrote about this before but whatever.

Anyways, I'll cut to the chase. It died halfway through our camping trip. It was extremely depressing. When I got back from my adventure with Estelle my family was frantically getting ready for the week of camping. Fun. You know me, I hate camping! Actually, it wasn't as bad. I met lots of people such as these crazy Filipino's! They kept stealing my Pikachu hat and blue umbrella!

Back to the cat! I come back home from my awesome adventure and I notice the cat wasn't feeling well. My family discovered this cat on the thursday and after that, it was like our family cat. However, this cat was wild and my family was like, "What's wrong with it?!" after it started to throw up. We figured it drank water from our pond which is extremely unhealthy considering the water looking yellow. I felt so bad for it. My family ended up bringing it with us.

On the way to the camp, we finally came up with the name for the cat. We named him "Lucky" because he/she has to be lucky that we found him/her in our yard. That cat would have been a goner! But it ended up dead anyways.......its so depressing! I cried...........we only knew the cat for.......four days? It was such a young kitten! He/she was pitiful.........

Anyways, sorry for the depressing news. I'll talk about camping! Camping was so bad. As I've said, I enjoyed meeting people and napping. My Pikachu hat attracted people! Ok, time for my last manga recommendations!

The art is AMAZING! I love it to pieces! Just look at it! WOW! There's a sequel to this manga if you have already finished. It's called, "Cavalier of the Abyss". I haven't read it yet since I'm still finishing this manga. The stroyline is downright amazing! Though it kinda reminds me of the manga/anime Busou Renkin. Anyways, it still has it's differences and I enjoyed it so much! I fell in love with the art right away! The action scenes are pretty dark and cool. Shonen lovers out there, this manga is for you!

Arigatou~!!
