The Host

I see no point in giving out personal details. Just know that I'm usually known as sal. msleah is my alter ego.

I believe if you don't already know who I am, you wouldn't be here in the first place.

A New Look.

Okay, I'll split this post up into different sections so that anyone who wishes not to read about a certain part of the post, may feel free to skip it. See how I treat people, who use their time (probably out of boredom) to visit my blog, nicely?

Layout

Yeah, a new look. Initially I dont really intend to put this up permanently. It's just that while reading the manga, out of the thousand pages that I've seen, the one pic of Kenshin there caught my attention and just screams to be made into a layout. I only edit and photoshop images if I come across the perfect image for it. And that, is one really perfect image. Initially I only wanted to use his picture but then, it looks kind of plain, leaving a whole lot of empty space for the post. (I guess I could've made the whole thing smaller, but.. wasn't thinking about it at that time. Stupid me.) So, what I did was, browse through the manga again, and put images of the two women he's closely attached to; Tomoe and Kaoru. I'm not particularly satisfied with Tomoe's image, but that's as good as I can edit it. The initial scan was really really bad. Really. In the end, after editing the whole image, I take a look and.. hey, its not too bad. Well, granted, its not really that eye-catching, or amazing, but its simple, and I like it. Although I am quite the perfectionist, as seen from the previous layout. Anyway, it looks satisfying in Firefox, but it looks perfect in IE, as much as I hate to admit it better in full window mode. Well, that's just the way it is, I'm too worn out to actually bother about the small details. (Like I said, I'm a perfectionist) Anyway, we'll see how long I'll put this layout for. I wasn't really intending to change the layout till May, because, then, I'd get to celebrate of using the same template for one year! Haha, weird, but Oh well. It doesnt live up till that.

Rurouni Kenshi (Samurai X) Anime/Manga

Yeah! I've finished reading RK manga. And it was really really great. At the beginningI wasn't really too keen of Mangas. I'd prefer Anime over them anytime. But the only reason I read manga now, is to know the storyline. Really, the only Manga I've read are Bleach, School Rumble and this, Rurouni Kenshin. And only after I watch the anime. Its usually because I'm impatient with the anime, that's why I read it (For Sch Rum, I wanted to know what happens after Season 1; for Bleach, I wanted to know the real flow of the story, instead of where the fillers are going at the moment). Anyway, back to the topic. I love RK's manga more than the anime now. It rocks! Well, for the fighting scenes, obviously its much better to watch it animated instead of in paper. Tomoe is actually much much prettier in drawing than in the OVA. I wish they'd animate the whole series according to the Manga, but too bad. Although there is the OVA, it's not quite the same. I only understand the whole series after reading the manga. And Kenshin wasn't as serious as I thought he was in the OVA. There was still a hint of his usual self, and for that, I'm quite glad.

I've actually gone to love almost all of the characters in the series. Even Saitoh. You have got to love his dialogues. It's really hilarious how he makes fun of Sano all the time. And Soujiro is so cute, although he reminds me of Ichimaru Gin from Bleach. I'm not saying that Ichimaru is cute, its the fact that they both smile all the time, rid of emotions. (Although, Soujiro's not an evil smile) Anyway, I think RK's Manga is much much much much better than the anime. Did I mention that already?

Misc/Sch/Boring Life, etc

So now I have to find something to keep me occupied in school (since I've already finished reading the manga) and internet connection at home's really bad, since it's always unstable (only mine though, nothing wrong when using the desktop. heh.) that I can't really get anything to watch now. Ah~ It's about time I start working on my project anyway. It has already been two weeks of slacking, and I should really start to get serious. (The fact that my two other team mates as just about the same as me, doesn't really help)

Exam results will be out this Friday, not really bothered. I don't really expect great results, mediocre is just fine. As long as I get to graduate, and don't really fail anything, then its fine. Are you reading this? (directed to a certain someone, and she should know)

Got an email, congratulating us for finally being third year students. Ah. Graduating soon. Can't really think much about it, since there's still a few more months before that, but its happening soon. Wonder how we all are going to be once we left school.

Anyway, for the first time, I'm already quite sure of what I'm going to do. Well, not really sure sure, just have a brief idea. I'm going to work (not sure about the actual profession area just yet) and help around the house for abit. Let my sisters complete their education, and then, when everyone's comfortably out of secondary school, I'll start thinking about going back to school to study. But I'm definitely not going to continue under the IT field. No.

So that's about it. (Long post again. Sigh. I really should stop writing this much. Must've missed creative writing.) Time for some tv!
