Today has been, overall, a lovely enough day :D

I know I told [livejournal.com profile] jeva_chan and [livejournal.com profile] strawberrychan that I would probably get back online last night, but fact is that I crashed HARD-CORE around ten-thirty or so and didn't move again until nine o'clock this morning. I woke up feeling refreshed and ready to greet the nice, sunny day...and man oh man this is starting to sound like the beginning of a bad fanfic o.O *smacks self with squeaky mallet* Bad Candy. No pr0n.

Speaking of which, I've been making a TON of posts on the fic-blog, just getting some of my older stuff on there and whatnot--I've been checking the entries as "back-dated" so I'm not flooding anybody's f-lists. But I continually finding myself cringing at some of my older fics (mostly from my *ashamed* DBZ days...), and I sit there and stare and think to myself, "At what point...did I actually think...this was good?" This was also back in the days that I thought writing a one-page chapter constituted unbelievable long-ness -_-;;

But I'm posting them up there anyway, if only as a testament to how far I've come as a writer in my five-almost-six years o' practice, and I'm sure in time I will look at what I'm writing now and think the same thing :D

And I finally started watching Princess Tutu. And I proved myself, once again, a total music nerd when I heard the BG music for the first episode--since it's all about ballet and such, the BG music is from famous ballets. I literally squealed "NUTCRACKER!!!" Duck's theme was the Overture, while Princess Tutu herself appeared to The Waltz of the Flowers.

It's really kind of cheesy, but the animation is beautiful, and I was a dancer for quite a few years (not that you'd know it by looking at me... *hides tummy under big sweater*), so I'm really loving that aspect of it. So far, so good :D

But anyway, I'm scampering off in search of friends and Kingdom Hearts--I thought we were going out to eat tonight, but turns out Mom's working late. So I'm going to go grab the girls (and possibly swing by Subway on the way back, because I haven't had dinner), and camp out in the basement for a few hours :D Later!

What I really liked about them was that they were creative and didn't use the same cliches. You have no idea how many "Gohan and his class go to Capsule Corp" stories I saw....

Well...its an implied orgy, but an orgy none the less!! You want a manga link or an anime link?

Actually, they were at the mall and had already eaten. So they sat with me while I inhaled some Taco John's, and then we went and played, and lo, it was divine ^_^

O.O ...bwuh? What did I do? *confused*

Princess Tutu = LOVE. Beautiful animation, beautiful music, and awesome characters. (But please, Candy-chan - Duck? Ahiru! It's her original, and it's so much nicer than just..."Duck"...[/purist rants])

And I've actually had fun picking through your fic journal. xD Nice and nostalgia-inducing. (And I love the elephant on the top of it. xD Mr. Ele's so cute!)

...I wasn't overly familiar with the series before I started watching. I'd seen two episodes of the dub on a samper disc my friend had, and the dub's not bad, so... ;o; *fails at life emo emo emo*

D'aww, thanks! :D :D :D I'll start friending people back once I get it all set up...which is still quite a ways off, me thinkest ^^;; And yup, Lellyphants! There are four different elephant ones, so I can have one for each season!

*glomps you and scampers off*

xD I know, I know. But you gotta admit, "Ahiru" does sound nicer than just "Duck", doesn't it? (And "Mytho" is better than just plain "Mute"...yeah, ADV aggravated me with their lack of name consistency. They did a better job with pretty much every other show they dubbed than PT.)
