Monthly Spending

I know I haven’t been blogging much. I assure you that this is not due to my addiction to WoW but rather the new school term. Ah, school… the single universal constant of pain and sufferings since the dawn of humanity.

I bought most of the stuff I had been waiting for this month over the course of last week. (Three trips to Kinokuniya and one trip to Sunshine Plaza) This should more or less cover my spendings for this month… I hope. (Goddammit, I so want the new Sony Network Walkman)

Stuff

  • Comptiq Feb
  • Newtype Feb
  • Negima Vol.13
  • Kare Kano Vol.21 End
  • Maburaho Vol.2 End

Negima wasn’t very good. But I did take a peak at the latest issue of Shounen Magazine for the current story arc. Although I had no idea wtf was going on based on that single chapter, I can say that the next two volumes will be great.

Kare Kano Vol.21 had the PERFECT ending. I have absolutely no bad things to say about the entire series. Well worth the wait, which by the way was a LOT longer than usual.

In terms of anime, I haven’t been watching much. Fate/Stay Night is still good, Kashimashi is cute and wtf at the same time and Wings of Rean is just ZOMGWTFBBQ period. (You can really see the Yoshiyuki Tomino in it)

Anyway, I’ve been reading quite a bit recently (times otherwise wasted doing nothing of importance at school). Some English titles I’ve recently read or still am reading:

  • The Singapore Story: Memoirs of Lee Kuan Yew
  • 69 by Ryu Murakami
  • Japan: Profile of A Nation from Kodansha International
  • The SAS Fighting Techniques Handbook by Terry White

Yes, I can see many people going WTF at the first item, but I assure you that it is a very enjoyable and intelligent book and that I am looking forward to reading the second volume. No, I am not lying for the benefit of those fine agents from Internal Security who no doubt scrutinize my anti-establishment blog on a regular basis. Fight the power!

Another 180-degree change of topic: I love “WILL” by Chihiro Yonekura!!!

    Imagine that… ;)

    As for me, I’ve entered a belated state of Fate/stay night fanboyism. Currently looking for anything I can get my hands on…
