It's so much fun to watch and I love the different arcs in the manga. Like every manga, its soo cool to read how different the drawing style has come through. Its quite amazing.

Introducing Me (Fong Pen)

Hi Guys!

My name is Fong Pen, and translated from Chinese signifies "wisdom, intelligence, and peace". Chibiko, an amazing friend of mine, has invited me to post a few things while she is away. Here are a few things you may want to know about me:

• I am a relatively new "mangafreak".

This is all of Chibiko's doing, and I am thankful for it everyday. I love the intricate storylines, the relatable (or completely unrelatable!) characters, and the beautiful art. Throughout the summer I'll post about some of my favorite mangas and characters, and I hope to hear your feedback!

I LOVE Skip Beat!, Akatsuki no Yona, 1/2 Prince, Kamisama Kiss, and the list goes on and on......

• I read. A lot.

From romance, chick-lit, sci-fi, historical fic, YA, Christian, Chicken Soups, retellings of classics, dystopian, spies, supernatural, faerie, and of course..... MANGA!

•  Between sleep, surfing the web, and reading I can be a little active (just a little)

Soccer and wrestling. Need I say more?

• I am hopelessly lost when it comes to gifs. 

When it comes to pics, I will try my best, but don't expect anything too fancy :-)

• I love writing

This is one of the reasons why Chibiko suggested I be a part of this blog. Outside of school, it's hard for me to come up with material, so I am extremely excited to participate in this. If you have suggestions, feel free to comment! This is also the reason why my posts will be so long most of the time. lol. Even most of my emails look like essays.........

• I cannot speak any Chinese. I probably have 10 words in my vocabulary, and most of them are foods.... Not that there is anything wrong with that!

Yeah. It's a little ironic, considering my (Chinese) name, but I actually speak (and write) English really well, and can have a decent conversation in Spanish! Because of manga, I've found my Japanese vocabulary growing every week. It's been really cool to learn all the vocab. I just can't speak it very well! You know that awkward moment when it sounds perfect in your head, but when you say it outloud it turns out the pronunciation was totally wrong? Yeah... Try that in a different language!

Thanks for taking the time to read this; I will try my best to post at least every other week. I am determined!!!

See how determined I am??? 

 

 

And a huge thanks to Ro; this is for you!

Reality T.V Shows

Getting ready for a performance! :) Don't I look sexy? Joke! :P

This month is killing me!!! >:( I have piano festival and a bunch of tests........I'm dying!!! I have two performances for tomorrow and a science fair project to present...........man. I'm so stressed out!

Anyways, that's my month. Here are some T.V shows I love to watch on Netflix that make my life almost stress free. :)

Title: No Oridinary Family

Status: Completed

Summary: This show is about a typical family with a twist. After a tramatizing family vacation, each family member come back from the trip with special powers. Their family feels broken but the discovery of their new powers made them grow closer.



This show makes me extremely happy! I was soooooooooooooo estatic when I found this one Netflix. I was having second thoughts at first because I never usually watch shows on Netflix but thanks to this show, I have been crazy about other shows ever since. I hate how it ended. HOLY COW. I was mad that they didn't make a second season and everything but but but but............they ended with a freaking cliffhanger!!! ARGH! I hate that when that happens! Apparently this show was "underated" and wasn't getting any good views. PEOPLE. This show has rare genres that you never see in regular shows anymore. It has family and fantasy qualities like no other!!! >:( What is wrong with the world?!?! This show was amazing and they shut it down when it was getting better! GRRR.



Title: Robin Hood
Type: American Show
Genres: Romance, Action, Fantasy, Drama, Mystery, Adventure
Status: Completed

Summary: After 5 years of fighting in the crusades, Robin returns to England and leads a band of outlaws to outwit the Sheriff of Nottingham.



I freaking love this show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love it to peices~!!!!!!!!!!!! OH MY GOODNESS!! I cried so bad...............I really hated how it ended but whatever! Anyways, Robin Hood is like the main things I loved when I was a kid. This is just downright amazing. The acting and action was cool and the romance and adventure mixed in it created a legendary story that got me thinking all night. I rewatched this one and it still makes me feel like a kid and how much a I looked up to Robin Hood. I love it~



Title: Numbers
Type: American Show
Genres: Mystery, Comedy, Drama, Action
Status: Completed

Summary: Working for the FBI, a mathematician uses equations to help solve various crimes.



I always wondered how math was ever used in the real world and bam. This show appeared. I was truely amazed with this show and I love it sooo much that I got my family addicted to it. It's utterly fascinating to see how everything works even it doesn't make sense but whatever, I love the storyline! The actors are soooo cool and I just love Charlie and his brother! They make an awesome team.



Title: H20 Just add Water
Type: American Show
Genres: Romance, Fantasy, Drama
Status: Completed

Summary: (imdb.com) When three normal teenage girls stumble upon a ancient cave they undergo a transformation that will change their lives forever. H20 - Just Add Water, sees three very different girls facing everyday teen problems with an added twist - they're mermaids with incredible powers over water.



I remember watching this show when I was just in middle school. I'm still fascinated with all the tails. I love the show even though it is a bit on the cliché side but whatever! I enjoyed the show a lot and I miss all the characters very much.



Title: Terra Nova
Type: American Show
Genres: Sci-fi, Comedy, Drama, Action, Adventure, Romance
Status: Completed (NOO!!)

Summary: (imdb.com) Centers on the Shannons, an ordinary family from 2149 when the planet is dying who are transported back 85 million years to prehistoric Earth where they join Terra Nova, a colony of humans with a second chance to build a civilization.



I just want another season to this show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It just ended with a.......................nevermind. Just watch this show people. It's amazing. I just love the mixture of Family bonding, Romance, Sci-fi and a great adventure. This show has rare qualities just like No Ordinary Family. Why do people hate these kinds of shows?! WHY?! This is just amazing!



Title: The 4400
Type: American Show
Genres: Action, Fantasy, Sci-fi
Status: Completed

Summary: (imdb.com) As the reappearance of 4,400 missing persons on a single day confounds the global community, federal agents on the case slowly discover the ways in which the victims have been changed.



I really liked this show! It's pretty neat! It kinda reminds me of X-Men since everyone doesn't quite understand the 4400 like in X-Men. Also, they discriminate them too. I just got into the t.v show and so far so good!

Arigatou~!!

Valentines Day Surprise

Sigh.................I don't know what to think now! >:( Guess what I found in my locker for Valentines day? Tons of cute stuffed animals and fake flowers stuck on there. The worst part is, there wasn't any chocolate. But other than that, thats the cutest thing someone has done for me. I was embarrassed.............man. No one has done it for me and great.........I was blushing so bad and smiling like an idiot. The bonus thing is, this person is the person I like! >:( I didn't see her (I know, a she. I'll explain things later!) all day though because of "certain circumstances". I was sad because I didn't get her anything for Valentines Day and I didn't get to spend anytime with her at all!

 



Anyways. Yesterday was quite interesting. People kept looking at my locker and reading what was on it because she taped the inside of my locker and wrote a whole bunch of cute pick up lines and poems. I seriously felt like my heart was about to burst. I come to school early but I was expecting to catch them doing stuff to my locker because I knew it was bound to happen. However, I catch a glimpse that my locker looked full and tape sticking out. My first thought was that they stuck garbage in my locker.

Peoples faces when they were walking by............so embarrassing! >:(

I couldn't concentrate for the rest of the day.......so horrible!

You know why she did this to me? It was for the embarrassment and revenge. I won't tell you what I did to her because its just embarrassing. >/////< I won't tell! Anyways, how was everyone's Valentines Day? I know, a day late or so but.....whatever! I'll have some manga recommendations coming up soon~

Arigatou~!!

I'm soo happy!! I have all my favorite classes but I'm going to miss french. :( I loved french! It's sadly my highest mark out of all my other classes. Anyways, shall we get started with answering these questions?

*Hug*

I have been nominated by Estelle and Brogan Sprague. I was nominated by ~River~ but I ended up getting nominated again which I don't mind! Answering these questions are always fun~! :D

1. What is you favourite band? (If you can't decide, please list a few that you love)

Uh..............I have quite a few!! I listen to Korean and Japanese music alot so my list will be quite long but I'll put my recent favorites on here.

- MBLAQ
- Block B
- Orange Range
- C.N Blue
- FT Island
- Shinee

- Big Bang

The list could go on. I just listen to too many songs..........most of them are boy bands!! I just love their voices.....so hot and good looking guys. Why do they live in Korea or Japan?! Come to Canada and preform live just for us fangirls!!

2. What is your favourite Marvel movie? (if you don't know what Marvel is, I will personally kill you)

I love Captain America, The Avengers.............hmmmmmmmmm......what else? I just love any Marvel movie because Marvel makes the best comics and movies EVER! So amazing.......I always fall in love with the story line and it makes me soooo happy~!!

3. Who is your favourite character in Big Bang Theory? (If you don't watch / like it, name your favourite show and tell me your favourite character)

I love Sheldon. He makes me smile every single time with his comments even if I don't understand some of it. He makes the Big Bang Theory complete for me!

4. Which do you prefer and why: Star Trek, Star Wars or Stargate?

I don't know!!!!!!! I love them all!!!! >:( I think I would go with Stargate.....don't ask me why because well.............I CAN'T DECIDE. Why the fudge did you make me decide?!?!? I love them!!! ARGH! This is going to bother me for the rest of my life. Maybe I should just watch those series again and come back to you. For now, I'm undecided. :P

5. Why did you start blogging?

I started blogging because I wanted to spread the word about new manga releases and recommend awesome manga's to people around the world. I want to make everyone an otaku like me! Also for the utter fact that I hate losing so my friend challenged me to see who would get the most followers/views on their blog. Guess who won? :) But anyways, my main purpose was to get the word out and satisfy peoples need to find a great manga/anime to read/watch. I enjoy doing it! So much fun! Also, I used to write every single manga I've read and I always end up losing it so blogging made it easier with tracking things I've read and recommended. Thank god for internet! ^_^

6. Play any sports? (Martial Arts included)

I used to Figure skate! Would playing chess count? I don't really play any physical sports........I like to play basketball or run when I feel like it.

7. What do you prefer and why: listening to music or playing music?



I like both! Playing is fun when you are with friends and just jamming and having fun. Listening to music makes me happy or sad and it makes me feel alot better. There's tons of awesome music out there to listen to and when I want to, I always have this feeling to find the sheet music and physically play it on the piano or flute. It's so much fun!

8. Since Valentine's Day is coming up, I might as well as something related to it: do you have a crush / significant other and what would be your ideal date?



I have a crush. He is from a manga unfortunately. I guess my dreams are over. I don't really like anyone in real life and everyone just seems to be taken or just a jerk so I try to stay away from unecessary feelings because I'm just not ready for them! Anyways, my ideal date would be probably be with a nice and good looking man. He would take me to an expensive restaurant and I would eat and eat and eat! I would be so happy........after that, we would go somewhere and have coffee and just talk then off my or his house to talk some more. I would probably have an anime marathon with him! :) I want to date a hot otaku like me! ^_^

9. What is your favourite Disney movie?

I personally love the Little Mermaid or Cinderella...........I don't know!! I love them all!! Disney makes me extremely happy. I pretty much grew up with Disney movies.

10. What do you plan to do when you're older? (please be a bit more specific than "be alive")

Hmm..............I want to find myself a hot looking boyfriend. Who knows. I want to graduate, pass math (please god!), go to a nice university, graduate and become a nurse or doctor.

11. If you could wish for anything in the world, what would it be? (x-nay on the wishing for more wishes!)

I want..........hmm..........................a boyfriend! >:) HAHA! I'm kidding! I don't know! This is probably the hardest question ever! I don't know what to wish for. I want to travel the world, buy ALOT of manga and have my very own library in my house.........also live in a nice house and have maids and everything! I want to rich and graduate with good grades.....you know, what everyone wants in a good life. :) I wished for alot of things.

Ok! Time for Brogans questions! Hopefully I have satisfied you!! :D

1. Who is your favorite superhero and why? (Don't forget the girl ones!)

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.......................................CAPTAIN AMERICA. I love him!!! I love his personality and the way he fights. I admire his strong will and great strength.........plus, he's quite hot. :) So delicious~! Does the ones from the animes count too? :) I have alot from animes but I probably shouldn't say.....I have wayyyy to many! :D

2. If you could go anywhere in the world, and money was no issue, where would you go and why? (Bonus: who would you take with you?)

I would go travel Asia because its the country I was originally from and I would love to travel around there! Philippines, Korean, Japan or China would be great places to start!

3. There's a huge hurricane coming and you only have room for one more in your car. There's your best friend, who also saved your life, an old woman who needs to get to the hospital and the love of your life. What would you do?

Uh....................save myself, and hope for the best. I'll probably end up staying with them. I don't care. We are all going together. I don't want to leave anyone behind! I'll make something work. Either we die together or survive together, thats how it works. No questions aloud! >:)

4. If you could fly, would you do it Superman style, or would you have wings?

Obviously I'll have wings! I love wings!! Even if they are a hassle, they are just so freaking cool!!! My wings would be white and beautiful! I'll be an angel! :DD

5. What is your guilty pleasure that no one would guess?

 



I don't know............I have a tendency to look at hot men on the internet. Well, everyone knows that. I read tons of Yaoi (gay manga) and I can't help but fantasize about good looking guys. It's just my nature! Don't judge me! >:( Hot men are always nice to look at! :D

6. Where would you rather live? In the city, the woods, the countryside, or suburbia?

I would rather live in a city because there are malls, bookstores (I LOVE BOOKSTORES) and great people. I know that is debatable but I attract friends no matter where I go. I love meeting new people!

7. What was your favorite movie as a kid?

I love wayy to many movies. I love all the Inuyasha movies......any Hayao Miyazaki films or Barbie movies! To be perfectly honest, I still watch Barbie movies. I know, such a loser I am but whatever! I'm still a kid.......I'm sixteen but whatever!

8. What is your favorite, tried and true, cold remedy for when you are sick? I.E.: What do you like to do to make yourself comfortable? Who do you want around?

I always watched t.v or just slept. Sleeping is always a great remedy when one is sick! I would love to have my mother around and take care of me. I'm such a baby still and I love my mama! I would take tons of pillows and create some kind of wall with them and sleep in my fort. I don't get sick very much anymore cause I don't have time! I have to take good care of myself so I don't have to suffer!

9. Have you ever been in love?



>////< Uh................no! *Looks away*


Are you sure?

Ok ok ok. Everyone can define the meaning of love. I think I'm only at the crush stage but still. I don't know what it means to be "in love". So confusing! So to answer your question, yes I have. I don't know if I want to talk about it.......this person is driving me up the wall right now! >:(

10. If you had to choose, would you rather be on Wipeout!, Fear Factor, or Lights Out?!

Wipeout, DUH! It's wayy better than eating gross food on Fear Factor or yeah. Wipeout seems like more fun! Hahaha! :D

11. Would you rather be raised by lions or wolves? Why?

I would rather be raised by wolves because well...............I don't know. They seem cooler to me! Wolves are sweet and they eat rabbits (I think...). Rabbit doesn't taste that bad. :D

Arigatou~!!
