I’m supposed to be writing a speak for English, but I am so not in the mood. Eveything just seems… worthless…. Yeah, I know, this sounds like some teen-emo-rant thingy but really. I hate this world. For some reason, more today than for a long time. Though, none of this emo-talk is due to some bad argument with my parents, or whatever normally makes people depressed/emo… I do have all my upcoming exams and assignments, as well as not getting much sleep last night. (By that, I mean 4 hours. Which I cannot live on), but they’re not the reasons either. Believe it or not… it’s all thanks to some Anime and fanfics…

This is bad. This is really bad.
As some of you may know, the Nanoha Movie has just been released on DVD and Blu-ray. It reignited my mild-ish Nanoha obsession, to the point where I think things are getting a little out of hand… Although I’m restraining myself not to see it till early January so that I can watch it with my friends, I’m finding I need to get quick doses of Nanoha without having to re-watch the series.
Now, I love Nanoha. And I love Fate. I also love Nanoha and Fate. In fact. The “Nanofate” ‘couple’… is my favourite Anime pairing… Which lead me to the wonderfully insightful Nanofate.us, a group dedicated to the pairing, and a fansite containing many translated doujins, as well as providing a large-ish dedicated image board, and fanfics. And recently, I became very attached to a fanfic by ‘Satashi‘ titled: “Saved by the Bell“.
I love how it’s an alternative story-line. The young-adult years, in a world where they aren’t searching for Lost Logia, or “Mahou Shoujo” for that matter. Some things kind of shocked me at first, (mainly Precia) but it’s very cute and sweet. (Makes me all warm and fluffy inside. XD) I’m only up to chapter 12 right now, and I don’t like some of the decisions that Nanoha’s making, but it can’t be helped. (Then it wouldn’t be as interesting I guess)
:aww:

I’m still waiting for the Dell Venue Pro. After playing around with a Samsung Omnia 7, I definitely want the Venue Pro. It’s basically the same thing except the Venue Pro has a slider portrait QWERTY, which I don’t necessarily need, and if the Venue Pro doesn’t come out in December, the Omnia may be my option.
Speaking of which, when I was playing with the Omnia at an Optus store, some Indians come in, (not meaning to be offensive or anything) see the Nokia N8 and start yelling loudly in excitement. They start playing around with it, trying to find the camera app, while saying how good it is. Meanwhile, I’m playing with an Omnia 7, whizzing through zune, camera, photos, people etc. And by the time I’m finish…ed. They were still trying to find the camera app… Fail.
In my search for a laptop, I believe I’ve narrowed it down to two: HP Envy 14, and Asus U43JC Bamboo… Not sure which one, am leaning towards the Asus for a number of reasons, but the Envy definitely still has a lot of pull for me.
I find the PV for the Bamboo to be much nicer than the Envy’s…
Anyway, that’s a quick-ish wrap for me… I need to get back to English…
