pour cette raison: l'anglais

yes, the mandatory english task rant... i'm halfway done, and actually like the poem which i have to write about next, but of course, c'est tres difficile pour commencer.
anyhoo, for some happier news, got mail from morisson media yesterday, which is of course the frankie mag publisher... and i got a voucher for one graniph t-shirt!! yayy since i filled out a reader survey a few months ago but i forgot about it until now and so i'm happy now yayyyyyyy :D :D they give quality freebies yes yes.
and since i just typed 'frankie' i remembered i haven't checked if their site has been updated yet yayyy so now i have something to do before i start english!! (even though i woke up at 6.30 to do it, haven't done anything and it's now nearly 10 o'clock. i have a skill.
tata!
and as proof of my english-evading-episodes, i am up to the sixth princess diaries book. ahhhh. i wish meg cabot would make more of the nicola and the viscount or victoria and the rogue type books again, instead of the stories about 10 or 11 year olds which sadly do not apply to me anymore :"(

i'm bored...seems that all the good sites have been lacking in their updates, and there hasn't been any substantial amounts of new comics to read (cc monic T___T)... the scanlators for yakitate are taking a longggg break and also with otomen T___T boooo and beauty pop is kinda frequent, but not frequent enough for my scissors-project need!!
got the new hana to yume and it's got a special one-shot of hana-kimi ahhh nakatsu! but my jap is really bad so i basically don't understand anything :"( where is my manga supply?!?!?! i've been re-reading my princess diaries again from number one... i want number 10!! meg cabot!! push the release date sooner pleaseee

omg just realised a website that i haven't visited!! harry potter fan sites!!!! yayayyyyyyyy i can time waste before i study my chem notes! (have to start practising for my french speaking tomorrow!)
can't wait for the movie! the 6th was my favourite book too since it's got more of the classroom scenes and it was funnier than the rest (i think) yea. i think my end of year plans will be around the release date of the harry potter movie which i have to google and find out!

ok. this is a boring rant.
i need new sources of entertainment! kinda dangerous though next week since so you think you can dance is on tv and the new american project runway is starting again!!!

eh how can?

i watched the end bits of a documentary yesterday on sbs called "HOLIDAYS IN THE DANGER ZONE: PLACES THAT DON'T EXIST" narrated by Simon Reeve (hmmm name sounds familiar...) and it was about Somaliland (not Somalia), a place that had its own government, but it's not recognised as a country by the world.
and the host was talking to the president and asked him what the national budget was and he said "whatever we can get", "this year is 30 million.....last year 2 million".... look here at the BBC site for more info about the program: http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcfour/documentaries/features/places-that-dont-exist.shtml
it's so weird that they aren't recognised, but why? i shall google.

whoa!!

garasu no kamen returns!

saw this on the hana to yume website....

and the explanation from animenewsnetwork.com:

"Manga artist Suzue Miuchi will relaunch her long-running Glass no Kamen (The Glass Mask) theatrical romance epic in Hakusensha's Bessatsu Hana to Yume magazine in its September issue (on sale on July 26). The manga had previously run in the main Hana to Yume magazine, but the 42nd and last compiled volume of the manga was published back in 2004. Bessatsu Hana to Yume's advertisement says that the story will pick up where volume 42 left off and will still feature the rising stage actress Maya Kitajima and her suitors Yū Sakurakōji and Masumi Hayami. The manga first ran in 1976, and it inspired a 1984 television series and a 2005-2006 television remake. There was also a three-part video series that started in 1998."

kinda forgot the whole story already though
