A'ight. Now, can somebody tell me how: I spent like 45 minutes uploading new icons, thinking to get a larger range of emotions and series (previously everything was SMILES *shudder*) and I somehow forget to add in a Kingdom Hearts icon while I manage to add 2 Hikaru no Go icons?!

Honestly, I don't make sense to myself.

Anyway, I've promised this a million times: fanfiction updates. And, well, I've been writing a certain Kingdom Hearts fic since late July 2008 for my BFF Gwen's birthday. Yet I've only shared maybe 2 chapters? And this was right after I wrote them. Well........I revised them. I've written up to chapter 9 (which is half done). I've refound my love of this story.

Oh, and I've decided that I don't feel like doing work right now. And that I want to upload them. Regardless of Gwen's opinion on that fact. Sooo... I decided that I was going to put them up on LJ.

HEYYYY I'M BACK<333 KINDA. LOOKIE, THOUGH, I HAVE FANFIC!!!

Title: This Love
Author: Britnie
Fandom: Spiral ~suiri no kizuna~
Character/Pairing: Hizumi/Ayumu
Summary: They were Adam and Eve, so why shouldn’t they fall in love?

Warnings: I butcher canon. Sorry about that..
Dedication: To Jessica. Why? Because you suck, I was still sick, and I love Hizumi and Ayumu and you made the bug bite me again ;~; IHU<3

--

 

( They were Adam and Eve, so why shouldn't they fall in love? )

Edit: Okay, so.. LJ hates me. I can't reformat this now because of this. I hope that there isn't much more wrong with it other than the italics (but there probably is...)

 

Um, yeah, as the subject up ther implies, I'm not dead. My computer is just terribly, terribly stupid and horrible and... well, not-wanting-to-work lately. hey, that sounds like me!!

BUT! My internet finally decided to work today!! YAYYYY~ So, as promised, I have some things to share with you all! Yeah, I know, it took a while..

These are only the first two, though. The ones that I've worked on most recently and (I think) the ones that I need the most help/input on. Also two of the least serious XD

Title: It’s not the model who’s the attention whore. It’s the photographer.
Fandom: Katekyo Hitman Reborn!
Pairing: Mukuro/Hibari/Chrome
Dedication: for Nana-san~
Warnings: AU, models, photographers, Hibari, Mukuro, crack?

Status: oneshot, i n c o m p l e t e

 

( The only photographer who Hibari has not bitten to death is Mukuro; the only model that Mukuro has not driven out of the business is Hibari. Unfortunately, they are stuck together. And did I mention that Hibari absolutely hates Mukuro? Didn't think so. )

...and after that, I'm stuck. I don't know where to go from there... I was writing it, and then I had to stop writing it... and then I came back to it a day later and couldn't figure out what I was writing... and I've gone back to it weeks later and added a line and now I go back to it and can't figure out how to continue. D': 

 

Sora the mushroom prince:

NO, I have not given this one up.. for anyone who remembers it lmao. I've actually written in it recently... but, once again, I am stuck.

Title: Prince Sora, of the Mushroom [what kind of name is that?]
Fandom: Kingdom Hearts
Pairing: Riku/Sora?
Warnings: AU-ish, crack, boredom, idk?

Status: undetermined, i n c o m p l e t e

( In which Sora is a prince, Mickey is his father, they live in Mushroom Forest [ie, Wonderland], Sora is Bored, and I think I'm going to make Riku a fairy.. )

So, There's more than there was before. Like, a whole page more. But once again, I'm kind of stuck. And by "kind of," I mean completely and utterly stuck. So much so that I started writing down anything that came into my head. I was pulling things out of my ass and hoping that they worked.


and when I say "I think I'm going to turn Riku into a fairy," I'm not joking. I really think I'm going to do it. I'm not sure why, but it sounds like a fun idea. But...maybe that's just when Sora first sees him. I'm not that mean.


Also, I don't know why I decided to make Sora want to sneak around like he's a super secret spy on a mission or something. It sounded like a fun idea at the time. Sora agreed. Riku said it was stupid. Britnie decided to go with it.

So, there's the first two. @_@ Any comments, critiques, suggestions, random ideas or inspiration sharing would be greatly appreciated!!

ETA: And of course LJ decides to screw everything I copy/paste up.... from a glance through, it looks mostly like it's just the italics (because half of the fic isn't supposed to be in italics, yanno) but I guess I can live with that for now..

❝ what's your genre? ❞

And last night I spent a lot of time coloring some manga pictures. Mainly because I didn't want to do homework. =_=;; Senioritis is hitting me hard. Buuuut I was expecting it, sooo~ yeah.

First, the manga colorings, and then:  icons. Because I felt like making icons too :]
( Manga colorings [3]Nabari no Ou [3]Shugo Chara! )
Now, for the icons! However few there may be..
( [3]Icons )

How sucky is it that I was expecting more? Of both? But, sadly, I didn't finish and I didn't save the few that I was working on before. Or they all sucked. And it took hours of coloring... for all but Tadase. xD He was simple. Iku and Amu? TOOK FOREVERRRRR for both pictures. And Yoite~<33333 I was scared because finding the DAMN COLOR. And I chose pictures where he's hurt, so blood, and and scars, and...yeah. o//o

by the way, sorry about any random "Britnie has uploaded new userpics!" if you get them. XD I like changing out my userpics.
If you want to (though I doubt it) use any of the 3 icons above, go for it! XD It took forever to color them, though, so credit me, kay? /awkward and kind of full of herself moment.

and I just realized that I also have to write my entire speech by tuesday. ;~;

But I'm taking THESE?!?

...some of the answers are just plain creepyyyyyy (in the way that, most of the time, I get involved. As in, kannachan27&kannakitsune are involved in some way, some form. @_@)

















LET IT BE KNOWN THAT I HAVE NEVER LIKED STARWARS. It just looked like fun :3



Oshit, I'm pretty stupid, ain't I? DDD':










And, umm, yeah. No more, please. Seriously. I need to get this fucking homework done ;~;

Okay, so I was gonna post something yesterday, but ugh. By the time I came upstairs, I had a massive headache and I was really really exhausted. So I didn't post anything. :'[

Anyway, my birthday was fun :] Debbie gave me 2 beautiful red roses, and her brother's wife got me some other things. Like Cherry Blossom lotion and shower gel<3 I took a lot of pictures, too. They came out pretty good, so maybe I'll post them later..

My "brother" Johnny stopped by, too<3 He's gonna turn 21 in like, 8 days. But he came over to tell me happy bday and to bother my dad about something. Idk, but dad was working so Johnny stayed anyway. Amanda ended up giving him a massage (on my bed!) and I surfed the 'net some more lol. Then he left a few minutes before my dad got home. Okay, so maybe around half an hour before dad got back.

Yesterday was supposed to be a good day, but it didn't really turn out that way :[ I woke up to my sister and her best friend Liz screaming about something, and then found out that Amanda invited her boytoy Cory over. Damn 15 year old boy >< He kinda really annoys me, but he annoys my sister, too, and she's thinking about breaking up with him. But anyway.

I went downstairs for the first time all day and there they were: Amanda, Liz, Cory and...Johnny? When did he get here? Yes, Johnny somehow apeared and I didn't hear it.

From that point on, my day got worse and worse. Amanda and Johnny made cookies when Cory left and I really really REALLY did not want to eat them, but I ate 2 just to make them happy. They didn't taste too good. >< Apparently they were oatmeal, peanut butter, hershey's kiss and sugar cookies?? All mixed in one.
Then I decided to get in the shower cuz my mood was going wayyyy down. I'd already felt like crying a bit, for some reason. I felt better when I was in the shower and I got out, I smiled and started getting dressed and everything.

Of course, just when I got all dried off and everything, Johnny knocked on the door and I opened it only to get sprayed with a fucking water bottle. That one actually made me cry for some reason. Johnny apologized and left, I read Shugo Chara! and ended up falling asleep.

Today's a better day, though. I'm writing Nana-san's model fic! XD I've got about 2 pages written already and I'm not quite sure where it's going, but I feel bad for Hibari. Chrome has just made her first appearance. I've got no idea if this is turning out like either of us thought it would, so apologies in advance!!

I have to clean my room again -_-;; Between looking for clothes and trying to find my homework, my room has ended up as a mess!! And my party is tomorrow!!

Speaking of which, Daisuke and Nathan are the only ones spending the night >////< Yayy Daisuke<3 But I'll have to figure out something, ne? And hopefully dad won't be so uptight. I mean, I'm not going to do anything with them (as far as I know, anyway lol jk) and, really, it's not unusual to be awake until who-knows-when in the morning and have them fall asleep on my floor. Or for me to make somebody sleep on my bed. Or for Nathan to use me as his own personal pillow/matteres/cuddlebunny.

I haven't gone to apply for the job at the Dollar General yet. >< I don't know when I'mma do that. Maybe Sunday? I'm not sure... and it's hard enough for me to get my homework done as it is. Ah, whatever. Maybe I should just do it and see how things go.

But, umm, yeah. I'm bored and on MSN if ya wanna talk. I'll probably just be writing and stuff for right now, so~ I can talk lol. And maybe I'll post the pictures from Wednesday later on, along with that Riku/Sora oneshot I mentioned and (if I finish) Nana-san's MukuHibaChrome<3

YES, Finally!!!! I think I'm making myself sound more awake than I actually am... ^^; *just woke up* But whatever. I have to remind myself to wait a little while before I start writing anything. then again, the best things I've written have happened at like, 3am when I didn't go to sleep... though, Gwennie says that they're the crackiest, or they're the most angsty.

Speaking of writing and 6918~ What kind of drabble/fic does Nana-san want? Cuz I remember seeing a request for a 6918 drabble on the poll yesterday. I didn't write it yesterday, but I can at least try to start one! and finish the Chrome/Tsuna!!

cuz yesterday I was helping my daddie install the adapter thingy so we can have a home phone. Yes, that's right. Britnie no longer has JUST a cellphone! I used it, too~ even though it was just to see if Nathan and Daisuke were coming to my bday party (which they are, but it's up to Daisuke if they stay the night *crosses fingers*)

I also cleaned my room up a bit~ I've just got to finish the stuff on the sides of my bed (mainly binders, folders, papers, books and, umm, clothing x_X) and it shall at least look clean! After 2 weeks of work, it's getting somewhere!!<3

Hmm.. omg should i say it?! yesterday I found some of my old fics. Well, stuff from 2008. Like, a Zemyx fic I wrote for 6/9 day. I read it, didn't like the first two pages, but the rest was pretty okay. I guess. I dunno if I'm going to type it up, but if I do I know I'm going to have to do some rewriting XD

I also found a WIP Riku/Sora oneshot that hasn't been touched in like...months. Since August, at least. So I think I'll take off the last section and share it cuz I happen to quite like it. And it's closer to my current writing style and ideas.

Random question: Why do I always feel like writing on my birthday??

Gah, I'll post something later~ Debbie wants me downstairs.

And I think I 'm missing like, everything that I wrote before this O_o But whatever, it was somewhat nonsensicle babble. XD

I think this birthday party business is more trouble than it's worth, truthfully... Sighh

Yayyyyy memes~
I remember when I said I would never do any of these, and if I did, I wouldn't post them. HAH. I HAVE MADE A HYPOCRITE OF MYSELF. XDDDD It seems like I post a lot of them now, huh? <33

Both are from snikcidylime~

o1. Reply to this post and I'll assign you a letter.
o2. List (and upload, if you feel like it you better upload) 5 songs that start with that letter.
o3. Post them to your journal with these instructions.
</em>
My letter was "T"
01. The Package - A Perfect Circle
02. Thanx Givin' Day - Miyavi
03. The End - The GazettE
04. The way I loved you - Taylor Swift
05. This is Halloween - Marilyn Manson

...I feel like I cheated... They all start with "the" D:

1. Leave me a comment saying, "Interview me!"
2. I will respond by asking you five questions. I get to pick the questions.
3. You will post the answers to the questions (and the questions themselves) on your blog or journal.
4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the same post.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions. And thus the endless cycle of the meme goes on and on and on and on..

1. When did you get LJ, and why did you start?
According to my profile: Created on 2007-06-03 23:08:28
I started because 1) Dual posted things I couldn't read on ffnet here, and 2) I was reading a Dir en Grey fanfic on LJ and it was so much easier to have an account :3

2. If you've switched usernames, what was your first username?
I haven't switched usernames on LJ, but my first username anywhere was bmw218 (initials and birthday, thanks mom -_-;;)

3. What site do you frequent the most besides LJ?
Yahoo! 'tis my homepage and primary mail function, lol.

4. What is something you're interested in? Talk about it.
Oshit, what am I interested in? Uhmmmmmmmmm... Fairytales.
I love fairytales<33 And rediscovering my childhood<3 Hell, I've even got three YA books that are pretty much fairy tales! "Tithe: a modern faerie tale," "Valiant: a modern tale of faerie," and "Ironside: a modern faery's tale." They're probably some of my favorite books<333
And, really, fairytales can be so innocent, or the most twisted thing imaginable. I think that's what I love the most about them<33333

5. What's your fandom right now? Tell me what you like about it.
Well, I think it's Reborn!, but what do I like about it? Jeeze... Well, I like that it's somewhat small, so I can recognize names and who writes what, draws what, and everything. I have something to connect people to. Umm, I haven't really seen anyone get all up in arms about somebody not liking this person or that person, or pairing. In fact, I've seen people just fall in love with something off the wall!! (Like Destiny's Lambo/Hibari idea, which is totally cyuute~) And everyone's so nice~~<33

Hopefully there will be an update with some substance later, but, umm... yayyyy meme?<33

I am so happy~ I don't have to go to school for the next week!!! Yayyy February break. Though, I don't know why we get this week off... O_o

Anyway, I'm thinking about selling some of my manga... I don't have enough space in my room for it and having some money would be a nice change. I'm only saving maybe 5 series, and they're the longest ones ^^; Fruits Basket, Life, Karin (Chibi Vampire), Loveless and the newly bought Reborn, D.Gray-man, NANA and Lovely Complex..

I figured that I should start trying to get rid of some of my things since I'll be going to college soon... and I don't want to leave my yaoi laying around while I'm gone lol. Speaking of that, I'll have to search my bedroom tomorrow... I remember having like 5 yaoi manga and 2 or 3 yaoi novels and I can only find one of each. Man's Best friend (Inu mo arukeba) by Kazusa Takashima, or so says the cover of the one yaoi manga that I want to save.
My favorite story in the oneshot is the one with the Goldfish~<33 Princess Goldfish is my favorites story, definitely<33 So cuuuuute~

And I've realized something. In a lot of yaoi, for some reason, if there's a boy who thought he was straight and a boy who knew he was gay, or something, for some reason the "straight boy" always seems like he ends up on top. That's not fairrr~ I know a few straight boys that wouldn't be able to dominate a gay boy XD Like Nathan. He can't even dominate me! Little 'ol me!

...in the time that I was writing this,  I also read 2 manga and completely forgot what I was planning on saying lol. But I took a few pictures today, too! :] Daddie got the camera working, so~ Maybe they'll be better pictures than what I can take with my cell phone, na?

Sighh. I haven't talked to Nathan all day not that I really wanted to, so I don't know if Daisuke can come to my party on Saturday~ :'[ I don't really care if Nathan comes or not, because chances are that he'll just sit in the corner on his DS or whatever, watch anime on his iPod, or be whining that he wants to see Kimmie (his girlfriend) the entire time, like always. EVEN THOUGH I've got a dart board, pool table and other things to do in my house and everyone else usually has a fun time.

But daddie said that if Daisuke wants to come, he'd go pick him up. Even if Nathan can't come, if Daisuke wants to, everything will be okay~ Now, to figure out a way to talk to Daisuke/Chris-san (Nathan's mom) without actually talking to Nathan...

I have to figure out if the other people I invited are going to be able to come, too. :[ I've only got one yes; everyone else doesn't know, hasn't asked, or hasn't told me anything.

...wtf, LJ? My journal just got posted :'[  I wasn't done yet!!!

I'm hoping that they get back to me soooon~ and I don't really know if I want my ex to be there or not.. we're not close anymore cuz it's been, what, a year and a half?? since we were together. grr.

Anyway, I'll respond to journals in a little bit. My internet randomly shut off about an hour ago when I was going to comment on something :'[

...any chance of somebody else having the week off and feeling like staying up til whenever, and possibly chatting on MSN? stupid, hopeful questions that I ask...sigh..

On a side note: GWENNIE-BEAR, I MISS YOU ;~;

...It's still the 14th in my time zone.

Now that that little schpeil is over... WELCOME to my new friends pockypower & snikcidylime! I hope to become good friends with you both!


Now, since I didn't have anything to do today, and it was long overdue, I thought that I'd spend the day beautifying myself. That's right, I was girly all day. I did my nails and spent hours on my makeup, played "dress up" with actual dresses... and I had fun doing it.

I even have a few pictures!!

( Have you ever wondered what I look like? Well, here are some pictures! )( Have you ever wondered what I look like? Well, here are some pictures! )And that's pretty much my day, told by pictures. Though, I wore 2 other outfits: One was a really short black dress that I found in my closet (didn't take any pics, though.) and the other was an adorable tan skirt with a white tanktop and tan/brown scarf... I couldn't get any pics of the whole outfit, though. Dad wouldn't take any.

I also walked around in high heels. It's been forever since I've worn them.

Oh yeah. A meme:

( insert other months here~ )

...I really need to watch the news more often. If I'm not watching, I won't be able to take part in discussions in my Participation in Government [PIG] class. Which, I realized this morning, happens a lot. Like, we talk a lot.

and I have to figure out something for my homework~ what everyday, ordinary items do you have in your house that don't have a clear purpose? My assignment was to bring in three of them and we will classify them as if we were archaeologists of the future, giving the items purpose and such. Whatever that means. =_=;;
I don't like my new creative writing class. I can't talk to people and I like Speech better..!

You know, it seems like I'm finding everything lately. Or, at least, realizing that I didn't post this or that, or that I wanted to write something... And so I come to this realization:

I don't seem to have posted one of the fics that I was so happy with after I wrote it. ANYWHERE. It's not on LJ, but it's on my ffnet and on my dA... and yet, I could have sworn I posted it here. Thus, I shall do it now. (Sorry for the random fic-spam)

Title: Another Test

Fandom: Katekyo Hitman Reborn!

Characters/Pairing: Gokudera, Tsuna

Summary: If I cannot protect you, would you think me a failure?

 

-----------

 

 

( I don’t win this, then there’s one more strike against us, one more chance that he will have to fight and get hurt and be tainted and stained and in pain and I won’t be able to help him because-- )And, there's another one. I wrote it for a 1827_is_love  contest wayyy back. I figured I'd share it here, anyway. <3

Title: Hiding
Pairing: 1827
Prompt: Hide and Seek, First Date
Rating: K
Warning: Abundance of fluff. Hide and seek. Haru-interruptions.

 

( In which Hibari and Tsuna have a first date, there is much fluff, hide and seek, and Haru interrupts a moment. )
And with this posted, I think I may be able to finalize my fanfic archive and post it in a little while (for my use as well as yours, orz) ... It took forever to find all my fanfics on this journal. And, as stated above, a lot of them barely even made it. I think I've got it mostly under control now, so I'll just quickly add in this link and post it. I hope.

I found this fic that I wrote for reborn_quickies in October. Challenge #1 was Tsuna, and one of the prompts was gloves... sooooo, this happened.


Title: Leather Dreams
Rating: R-ish?
Pairing: Mukuro/Tsuna
Prompt: Gloves; Touch
Word Count: 408
Warnings: Sexual content, first 'sex' that I've written in a while.( He wanted to know how it would feel. )
It's certainly better than I remember it being. I think I might have to go searching through the communities that I'm in to find some other stuff. I barely remembered that I had written this!! so, umm, was it okay?

So, I don't really like Tsuna/Kyoko, right? Right. I basically think that one of the few reasons that Tsuna is "in love" with Kyoko is because she's "normal" compared to everyone else he gets involved with (or that gets involvedd with him, to be more accurate).

And a 3-day-long roadtrip is very very long and very very boring. 'specially when the laptop dies so there's no Sims to play, and you're sick of sleeping, and Gwen's playing the DS so you can't... and you don't want to waste her iPod's batteries because you almost made it die again (whoops).

And, well, that's how I ended up writing this. WAY back in July '08. Well, the first bit of it, anyway. I found this while looking for Cry for You [aka that last fic that I posted<3] and decided to type it up. 'course, I only found the first page, so I don't know what I was planning for the rest of the fic. Either way, I typed it up and finished it<33

Title: Confessions of a Mafia Bride
Fandom: Katekyo Hitman Reborn!
Pairings: implied Tsuna/Kyoko, Gokudera/Haru
Summary: Kyoko knows why Tsuna really loves her, and so she cries.
Note: This was written with the assumption that the only reason Tsuna loves Kyoko is because she is 'normal' and that Tsuna would actually tell her about the mafia-stuff.

 

( She is precious because she is normal. )
Okay. Now that that is out of the way... Today was a boring day. I didn't do anything other than rewrite and type this fic. Blegh. Oh, and I'm watching House. <333 I love that sexy, maniacal doctor.

...Nathan is attempting to debate about my Tsuna-loves-Kyoko-because-she-is-normal theory through text messages. 250-character limit, over cell phone, and not giving me anything other than "Tsuna knew Kyoko before everyone else" as his defence. Which is totally not true, because he's known Hibari-san for either longer or just as long.
I would love to have a discussion with people about that, by the way. Among other pairings and why I think that would/would not work. Just as long as we're both willing, can respect each other's opinions and it doesn't get mean ;~;

Gonna go make myself a sandwich :]

....and now, I really want to write a Hibari/Tsuna. Or a Mukuro/Tsuna... Mukuro/Tsuna/Hibari... Those three, in any way, together. And Chrome, too, maybe. Lovely, lovely Chrome.<33 And I haven't written GokuTsuna in forever....

So. I just finished rewriting that fic that I've given up looking for. Version 2 isn't as good as version 1 was, but meh. I'm okay with this version, too. please excuse errors, I've only briefly glanced over it orz

Title: I cry for you [version 2.0]
Fandom: Katekyo Hitman Reborn!
Pairing: Kyoko/Haru
Summary: Haru cries and she wonders if it’s a curse or a blessing that she is the only one strong enough to comfort them and weak enough to cry for them.
 

( It's all Haru can do not to cry, to be strong, but sometimes she can't take it anymore. The pressure in her chest is too much, she feels like she's going to burst and then her throat is closing up and her eyes are burning and the tears come cascading down. )

 

Concrit would be love. And I feel like I made them seem really weepy ;~; Which, all things considered, I have, but... I dunno. I really wish I could find the first one... ><
I think Haru and Kyoko are out of my comfort zone OxO I'm not confident at all.....

ps. my mom's here now. she, my sister, and my dad are watching a movie downstairs while I hide up in my room writing this.

a meme from yuidirnt !
"Comment and I'll give you a letter; then you have to list 10 things you love that begin with that letter. Afterward, post this in your journal and give out some letters of your own."

My letter: S

( If it was an R, I'd say RANDOM<3 )

Amanda's making fish for dinner~<333 I love fish<33 'xept when it looks like fish. If it's like a fish sandwich or something, I'll eat it. Regular fish just gives me this "ewww" feeling. I dunno why...

Anywho, I filled out my FAFSA today!!! YAYYYY I got that part of the financial aid thing done. My dad's an ass, as usual. He was all like, "You don't know anything, let me do this. Move out of my way. You screwed up my computer again!!" etc etc etc. That was about 6 hours ago, but I'm still pissed >:[
I know what I'm doing, I read the questions, and I read like 20 times faster than he does! The only reason he needed a PIN was so he could sign the damn thing, and the only reason he needed to be involved in the process was to give me his numbers and stuff. GRR.

( Oh shit, talking about my mom.. )

I spent most of yesterday searching for a fic I wrote when I was in Florida. It's a Haru/Kyoko fic, I remember loving it and wanting to share it, but I don't remember if I ever typed it up or shared it or whatever. So I went searching.

I found one page of a different KHR fic that I was writing at the same time, 5 yaoi manga, 2 yaoi novels, clothing, old stories, candles, $2.00, makeup, notebooks, sketchbooks and random other things. I didn't find the Haru/Kyoko.

I started rewriting it, but I couldn't remember how it went... and it didn't have the feel of the original, so I left off in the middle of a sentence. ;~; I really wish I could find it...

The smart thing to do would have been to search my archives on here to see if I posted it, but I still haven't done it. I ended up going through my tags to find it. I also realized that half of every fanfic I've written and shared on here wasn't tagged as "fanfiction," so I spent a good 3 hourts going back and re-tagging. I still don't know if I got everything.

Gotta go clean now, before I completely forget and my dad bitches at me tomorrow... DD':

And even though mom'll be here around 12:30ish in the morning and I can totally be sleeping and avoid her, something tells me I'll be spending my time online til around 2am, at least.

Now, it may come as a surprise, but I don't think I'm ever going to buy Reborn manga ever again @_@

KOROYO?! What the hell?! It's Kokuyo, you fools! It was written in roman letters - on the character pages!! I didn't know that the translations were that bad OxO I think that I seriously prefer the fan-translated scanlations to the "official" translations...

Anywho. Today I went shopping~<333 I picked up 7 new manga and one book, and since I've read most of them already, I have comments. (specifically about translations, and I doubt that I'mma buy the manga once I read the scanlations cuz it's so much worse...)

This is what I bought:
Kyo Kara Maoh! volume 1
D.Gray-Man volume 10
NANA volumes 1 & 2
Love*Com volume 1
Reborn! volumes 7 & 8
The Book Theif by Markus Zusak

Now, I love and adore NANA and have read til the most-recent (or 2nd most recent) chapter, scanlated. I decided that I wanted to buy it... so I did. I open it up, right, and I find that the first page is pretty much the same as the scanlations, which makes me sigh in relief. But then, people start talking. NANA (Komatsu, that is. Hachi) starts speaking and I'm like... "what!?"

"dude," "man," Random nicknames and calling people by their first name. ;_; Either my heart broke, my eyes bled, or a little bit of both. It was the same in the second volume.

In Reborn!, though...! No, "Gokudera-kun" or "Yamamoto"  or "Kurokawa." Tsuna calls them all "Hayato," and "Takeshi" and "Hana." I was prepared for corny things like the "Dethperation Shot," as much as I hate it... I was also prepared for "Chiavarone" and not "Cavallone." Instead of "Kokuyo," as mentioned above, they called it "Koroyo" and everything was just plain weird and made me want to cry. (but I have them and that's the important thing, right? Right??)

I read D.Gray-Man and it wasn't too bad. Nothing really to complain about, 'xept I could only get number 10. And that Allen isn't in 10 very much... but hey. That's okay. I still got it, it was good, and I can always read the rest online or offline..<33 Plus, I read the first volume translated in the manga, so it doesn't make such a big difference as it does starting off reading the scanlations.

Hmm... I haven't really read Kyo Kara Maoh! yet, but I flipped through. Heehee... Yuri's string bikini<33 I always laughed at that part of the anime.

As for Love*Com, I like it. I've meant to go through and read it a few times but I never did... and now that there was a 40% off sale in Waldenbooks (because it closed today TT^TT) I decided to take a chance and buy it. I wish that I'd bought number 2, though. I guess I'll just have to track it down like all the rest lol.

Other manga that I've finished reading within this last week:
W-Juliet
Girl Got Game
*The Wallflower.
*Nabari no Ou

Now I've gotta find room for my new manga lol. I could barely fit my old manga in my room and now I've got 7 more!? God, I'm hopeless. But I love reading ;_; I'll find the space eventually.

It sucks, though... I went looking for a Japanese dictionary or a book or something to help me learn and there was nothing. I found "Italian for Dummies" though. Didn't buy it lol. I didn't have enough money left to buy anything... I even had to put back another book that I wanted (Eragon and Eldest in one book? Hell yeah.) so I could pay!

Yawnnnn. I'm tired now, so I think I'mma go to sleepies. <3333

(Seriously, I don't think I'm ever going to buy NANA or REBORN! manga again. The translations were eye-bleeding-material. Scanlations, please. [Though, it'd be awesome to print out the scanlations lol. Maybe they should be the ones working for these companies?] But I still got my Mukuro!volume of Reborn!, so I'm happy~)

I think I'll go looking for Love*Com tomorrow..ish? That was the only new manga that I got, and I won't be able to get anymore... Damn. I can't believe I spent 47 dollars on books even WITH a 40% off sale...
