Just a little update :3

Haay everypeoplesh! :3

It's been a few days, right? I mean since my last blog :,) so...I don't really think that needs an apology or anything! n.n I can't blog everyday, so it's okay! <:
I will apologise for being really down and a bit depressed in my last blog...I wasn't having a good day 3: but I'm alright now!
And I'm even better at the current moment because I'm listening to music while writing this blog and music instantly makes me happier :,3 although...it's hard to sing and write at the same time! GYAH! (>m<)

I'm listening to Tommy february6 at the present moment <3 omgg, I just LOVE her! Her music is SO much fun to listen to :,) if I wasn't sitting down right now...I WOULD SO BE DANCING! >3< she's very rad :D

I'm not really sure what to talk about...I never usually write a blog with an idea in mind :,) they are mostly "in-the-moment" things :,) so idk! xD

OH!
I watched the latest episode of Shingeki no Kyojin (Attack on Titan) which was episode 19 :D
OHMYGEEZ! Seriously! :,) every time it gets better and better and BETTER!
As strange as this may sound to some people...I'm developing a bit of a crush on Levi :,) idk why!! xD
And the more I think about it...the more I wouldn't mind a bit of ErenxLevi myself ;D I'm not a yaoi fan in ANY way whatsoever! But for them...I could be ;,3 pahahahhh!! At first, the ship freaked me out...but the more I see them in the episodes together...it's kinda growing on me! xD my first same gender ship...how exciting..! :,)
This Anime is SO good though at leaving each episode with an unbearable
cliffhanger! >A< it actually hurts having to wait for the next episode :,) I mean, I like watching Anime's as they air (I've been doing that a lot recently) but when it ends like Attack on Titan for example...it makes me rethink MY LYFE! ...not related I know, BUT IDC!! Dx
*sighhhh* so yeeaaa.. :,) if you aren't watching Attack on Titan, you really should
start! :D it's amazing!! * w *

What else..? *taps chin*
I brought the Skyrim expansions yesterday if that is at all interesting :,) well...it is to
me! xD
I kinda hadn't been on my PS3 for a while and thus, obviously not Skyrim :p but after getting the expansions, it's totally got me back into it again! :,D
What did I do today..? Not a lot actually!! O:
Bandit raids...giant slaying trips...dealing out dragon deaths, you know...the usual! n.n I also became Thane of Falkreath which was...exciting, I guess :,3
I also haven't been on Tales of Xillia for a few days, so I think I'll play that again
tomorrow :D I love that game SO much! ;3;

(music update; listening to Brave Song - GDM..! God this song makes me cry ; - ; I can relate to it in so many ways) kyaaah! MUSIC! <3

Blaah...this song makes me happy and sad all at once!! D; my mood is changing rapidly at the moment from HAPPY! to saaaaaad...
Hmpf!
And...now I'm writing about nothing! :,D

I think I might stop this blog now as I need to write out an episode review for the latest episode of Free! to film a YouTube video about! ( ^ v ^ )
So...yush! \( ^ 3 ^ )/ I'll be off to do that nao~

BYESIES~! *waves* n.n

How I sort out my mixed up thoughts...

We're only young and naive still
We require certain skills
The mood it changes like the wind
Hard to control when it begins

The bittersweet between my teeth
Trying to find the in betweens
Fall back in love eventually
Yeah yeah yeah yeah~

Can't help myself but count the flaws
Claw my way out through these walls
One temporary escape
Feel it start to permeate

We lie beneath the stars at night
Our hands gripping each other tight
You keep my secrets hope to die
Promises, swear them to the sky
The bittersweet between my teeth
Trying to find the in betweens
Fall back in love eventually
Yeah yeah yeah yeah~

As it withers
Brittle it shakes
Can you whisper
As it crumbles and breaks
As you shiver
Count up all your mistakes
Pair of forgivers
Let go before it's too late
Can you whisper
Can you whisper
Can you whisper
Can you whisper

The bittersweet between my teeth
Trying to find the in betweens
Fall back in love eventually
Yeah yeah yeah YEAH~

The bittersweet between my teeth
Trying to find the in betweens
Fall back in love eventually
Yeah yeah yeah yeah~

This is just me trying to sort out my mixed up thoughts and this song really helps <3
I have those days....I have those moods....I have those moments when I just hate everything around me and everything I do and everything I am...
I do some silly things to deal with this pain and regret it immediately afterwards, but I'll be okay.
I know I will.

Free! Iwatobi Swim Club Anime Review~

Hay buddies~! n.n
This marks 3 blogs in a row! Am I on a roll or what?! xD

So for today's blog, I thought I'd mix it up a bit and talk about a specific Anime I have been watching recently :3
You all know by now that I LOOOOVE Anime, so...what better thing to do than to do a bit of a review, yush? <:
..even though I do Anime Reviews on YouTube, but...details, details! DOO DOO LEE DOO~

And if you haven't already guessed what Anime I'll be reviewing (just look to the title) I'll be reviewing..
Free! Iwatobi Swim Club 
(Still currently airing; episode 5/12)

So without further delay, let's begin~! :D

So, Free! Iwatobi Swim Club (or just Free! for short) is one of the more recent Anime's to be produced by Kyoto Animation.
And, of course, Kyoto Animation has got a brilliant reputation after producing Anime's such as Air TV, Kanon, Lucky Star, CLANNAD, CLANNAD After Story, K-ON!,
K-ON!!, Tamako Market etc etc.
So with them producing a sport themed Anime with definite eye-candy, it's no wonder it's become so popular! :,)

So, the basic plot line for Free! is that it starts with 4 boys before graduating from primary school. Those boys being Makoto, Nagisa, Rin and Haru. They were all part of that schools swimming club and gained a huge victory in a competition but at the end of their primary school years, parted ways.
As it turns out, Haru, Makoto and Nagisa all attend the same high school and are still good friends. Later on, we also find out that Rin, who was thought to still be at a school in Australia, is in Japan and he challenges Haru to a race and coincidently, wins.
Even after winning, Rin's victory means nothing to him as we find out that Haru stopped swimming competitively after him and Rin raced as children and Haru won causing Rin to cry which pained them both.
Rin tells Haru that he won't accept his victory unless he races him for real, to which Haru responds by telling him that that won't happen any time soon.
While at school, Nagisa suggests to Haru and Makoto that they start a swimming club at their high school which, after persuading, Haru finally agrees to.
They enlist the help of Rin's younger sister, Gou (who insists that everyone calls her 'Kou') and later on, Rei joins the swimming team.
They all work hard in making the club a success and they soon apply to enter a swimming tournament that Rin is also entering. He sees this as his chance to get a true victory against Haru.

So, with that basic plot line down...let's introduce the main characters! :D

This is Haruka 'Haru' Nanase!

So, Haru loves swimming and loves being in the water. Even after he stopped swimming competitively he stills loves it (although he regains his passion for swimming after him and Rin race again).
He is very strong and quiet and...will often instantly strip down at the sight of water in order to go swimming :,) ...but HEY! I'm not complaining ;D
He appears quite cold on the surface, but deep down, he is very kind and cares for his friends. This is shown when he teaches Rei how to swim after multiple times of trying :3
He is the vice-captain of the swimming club and his favourite form of swimming is freestyle~! c:

Next we have Makoto Tachibana!

Makoto is Haru's best friend. Unlike him, Makoto is more outgoing and speaks up for Haru on many occasions >w<
Let's all just 'awwhh' in unison, ready?
1, 2, 3..
Awwwhhhhh~! <3
Makoto is also very kind and considerate, but he has a...'weak' heart, let's say. So, he can get scared very easily :,) He is also the captain of the Iwatobi Swim Club!
His favourite form of swimming is backstroke~! c:

Next we have Nagisa Hazuki!

Just...just LOOK at that face?! >3< isn't he just...SO CUUUTE~?!
But don't let that fool you! He is pretty ripped underneath that school uniform.. :,3
Personality wise, he is a bit like Makoto in a sense that he isn't afraid to speak his mind and he is also very strong! :3
He has admired Haru since their primary school years and entered the same high school as him in the hope that he would get to swim with him again and then put forward the idea of starting the swimming club.
Nagisa is the treasurer for the club and his favourite form of swimming is
breaststroke~! c:

Next we have Rei Ryugazaki!

Rei is the final member to join the Iwatobi Swim Club.
He is in the same class as Nagisa and, before the swimming club, was part of the track team because he only cared about sports that involved beauty and calculation.
He is very handsome and intelligent and is quickly targeted by Nagisa to join the swim team after Nagisa observed him during his practice for the track team.
Rei is reluctant to join at first because he believes that swimming is not a beautiful sport, but after seeing Haru swim freestyle (which Rei thought was beautiful) he agreed to join.
We then find out that Rei can't swim, so each member takes a turn in trying to teach him until Haru steps in and offers support.
After trying everything to help him, Rei discovers that after lots of work...the only form of swimming he can do is the butterfly stroke, making it is favourite :,3

Next we have Rin Matsuoka! <333
(my faaavourite) >;3 ...kyaaah~! How I love his shark teeth.. *dreamy sighhh* ^////^

After being Haru's friend in primary school, it soon becomes obvious that they are both rivals now.
He went to a school in Australia, but returns to Japan and becomes estranged to his former friends due to a personality change which happened after he lost to Haru after challenging him to a swimming race in their first year of secondary school.
Rin goes to Samezuka Academy but did not join the swimming team their straight away; but he soon joins as he sees it as a way to finally beat Haru and gain a victory against him.
His favourite form of swimming is freestyle and butterfly~! c:
...how I love you Rin ;3; will you just please marry me~? <333

Next we have Gou 'Kou' Matsuoka!

Gou is Rin's younger sister and the reason I also put Kou as part of her name is because she prefers it when people call her Kou as she feels that Gou is too much of a boyish name.
She joins the swim club as their manager since she only really joined to help the clubs number go up so it wouldn't be disbanded. She also joins the club in the hope that she can help change her brother back to his old self as she really cares about him, even though she rarely hears from him.. 3:
As the picture I chose suggests, she also has the tendency to blush around men while admiring their muscles :,)
(maybe a secret motive to joining the club there..) xD

And finally we have Miho 'Ama-chan' Amakata!

How awesome are Jaffa Cakes?! :D

Haii gaiz! 
woopwoop~! Two blogs in a row! CHECK ME OUT! xD

Can I just say...how great are Jaffa Cakes?! Pretty damn awesome, right~? :,3
I know that's really random, but I had a whole packet of them earlier :,) you just have to keep eating and eating them and before you know it, you've had more than half the packet and you think you might as well eat the rest now! xD
See my problem? :p m-maybe not...well it's not really a problem. More like a...uncontrollable eat attack!! :,D
Aah well :3 what's done...is done! :F
Yay yay JAFFA CAKES~! <3

I know I spoke about this yesterday, but I just have to say how much I'm enjoying Tales of Xillia still~! <3 Something that made me laugh today though is that one of the bosses is a...moth! xD
I mean, yea it was a giant mutant kinda CRAZY WHOA WTH moth :,) but it was still a moth! :,)
And then the second boss I fought today, Milla's housemaid (I think that's right?) Ivar? Well can I just say..
What. An. Idiot. (>_<;)
It took me WAAY longer than it should have to beat him :,) he just throws attacks at you over and OVER hardly giving you any time to get up and recover let alone attack him!!
I swear I nearly cried out of frustration >~<; I managed to beat him though THANK GOD! He was open for a split second and I just went for it throwing in my artes and physical attacks :,) he freaking deserved it!
MILLA IS TRAVELLING WITH JUDE NOT YOU, IVAR!!! NOW GO BACK TO NIA KHERA!!

I think, so far though...my favourite character is probably Millia :3

I really like her personality :3 I like that no matter what happens, she keeps going and keeps trying to achieve her goal! :D
Like, at the moment..
--SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER--
She lost the use of both of her legs while trying to defeat Nachtigal, yet she still keeps telling everyone she wants to continue and won't give up :D I admire her for that c:
--SPOILER OVER SPOILER OVER SPOILER OVER--
And also, the further you get into the game...she becomes a lot better at socialising with everyone because when she first meets Jude, she is...not exactly cold, but maybe slightly rude. But she soon becomes a lot more caring and relaxed when talking with everyone :D

I also really, really, reeeally like Elize :3
She is SO adooorable <: and Teepo, her doll, is so cuute too >w<
Like Milla, she also develops a lot socially as well c: and I like how she becomes more confident and how happy she is when everyone tells her they are all her friends :,3 not gowna lie...I shed a tear <3

I also have a hella crush on Alvin <3
Eeeek~! I reeeeally do like hiiimmmm~ n3n

I think that's all I'm going to say for now heh :,)
The title does NOT match the blog, does it? Hahahaa :p

So...yea! This blog was probably VERY boring, but if you did somehow enjoy it, then yay! :3

Thankiies for reading :,3
BYESIES~! n.n                                              xoxo~

I'm alive! :,)

Well, hay buddies~! :3
..I do this a lot, don't I? ._.

I'm really sorry I leave such huge gaps between blog posts (..I always say that! At least...I think I do?!) but this time I promise that won't happen again <,:
But try not to hold me to that..heh n.n'
SO! What have I been doing? ..not much really :,) my life is boring, I know!
SERAH'S BORING LYFE! (>_<;)

Well, yesterday I got Tales of Xillia the newest edition in the Tales Series :3
I played it all day yesterday and all day today up until now and I love it SO much already~! n.n I can never fully understand how graphics for a video game can be so beautiful ;3;
And especially with the Tales Series c: another aspect of these games that always blows me away is the amazingly detailed story lines; they get you hooked immediatly immediately! :D
For anyone who hasn't played a Tales game, I recommend you do~!
OR failing that, you can watch a Tales game! :D yes, some of them have been made into Anime's! >w<
Ones that I'm aware of are..
~Tales of the Abyss
~Tales of Phantasia
~Tales of Eternia
~Tales of Symphonia
                                                           yay! n.n

Also while I've been away (after watching the film and loving it) my sister was telling me that I needed to read the book of The Perks of Being a Wallflower, so I did :3
Ohmigosh~! No words to explain how great that book is! I wish I had that book going through my teen years :,) it would of helped me...A LOT!
The Tunnel Scene <3
Watching that scene, reading that scene...I can't help but cry :,)
 "And I swear, in that moment, we were infinite."
*cries in a corner*
If you haven't watched the film or read the book....do both! :D
It'll be one of the best choices of your life :3

Last weekend, I went to Nottingham with my mum so we could go and see From Up On Poppy Hill the newest Studio Ghibli film :3
If you aren't already aware, Studio Ghibli means SO much to me ;3; everything they create is perfection in my eyes! Honestly, without their films...I'm not sure how I would be living my life right now, I really don't. Studio Ghibli really did change my life and continues to do so <3
But this film....was so breathtakingly AMAZING~! A gem! Perfectly nostalgic, a joy to watch and visually stunning * w *
I felt such a strong connection with the characters that I could feel their pain, their loss, their understanding and realisation. By the end of the film, I was in tears ; ~ ;
Not just because of the reasons I mentioned, but also because nothing could ever be more perfect :3
I can't wait for it to be released on DVD~! I'm buying it, buying it, SO BUYING IT! >w<

Am I boring you guys yet? n.n No? Then...can I continue? ..yay! xD
I have been doing A LOT of writing lately :3
I love writing stories and one of my dreams is to one day have a book published c:
Are any of you aware of the AMAZING Wii game Another Code: R - A Journey Into Lost Memories? <3 I hope so because it's one of my favourite games ever~!
Anyway :3 after playing Another Code: Two Memories and then the sequel being Another Code: R - A Journey Into Lost Memories, I couldn't stop thinking about what it would be like for Ashley, Matt and Liz to meet again at Lake Juliet ( ^ v ^ )
And because of that, I wrote a sequel sequel :3 well...I am still writing :,) I think at the moment, it's around 30 pages, which I know isn't a lot, but I'm not aiming for it to be a real story, just a short one <:
But I'm really proud of how well it's coming along! Maybe when I'm finished, I'll share it if I can find a way c:
But as for publishing a book, I have the perfect story idea :D I have been writing notes about the characters, the plot...just, everything to make sure it's exact before starting to write :3
I get SO excited thinking about this story because it's even something I would read myself :,)
It's completely fantasy based (which is my LYFE) with a love story also n.n EEK~! I can't wait to start writing this :,)
I feel like Shizuku in Whisper of the Heart, I just CAN'T WAIT for this story to take form on paper! :3

Pheeewf~! n.n
That was a pretty lengthy blog, huh? Well...not really :,3 but yanooee?!! xD
I think I'll stop here for now :)
I will really try and do more regular posts because, like I have said before, I love writing so...I should really do things like this more often :3
As for now? I think I'll pay Floria (my town in Animal Crossing: New Leaf) a visit and bid you all farewell~!
Have a beautiful day and remember...
You are infinite c;
BYESIES my friends~
                                       xoxo :3
