Applied at Chapters... i really want that job...0____0;;
Reading Naruto right now... surprisingly the public library has a decent selection of manga and comic books... I've read up till book 5. I can finally see what the fuss is about~~~ ^___^ It's not the most deep and intellectual series you'll ever read (which is usually my preference), but it's funny (very funny, actually), has plenty of great action, and a decent story line with interesting characters. All in all, it's a good read~~ ^o^
Trying out Fruits basket as well (simply because it was available), i've got issues 3, 4, and 5 in my hands... 1 and 2 weren't here... so yeah... *shrug* i've heard good things about it...
What else...
Nothing really...
ooh~!
I saw Troy yesterday~~!!! (ya, ya i know i was late...) But WOW~~~ It was SO GOOD~! 0____0 I put off watching it for a long time because people had told me that they took pretty much the entire mythological/mystical/Godly element out of it. In the original tale the Gods were involved in the story, but in the movie they were barely mentioned. Also, they didn't include Cassandra... WTF~!!! She's mah fave~ and rather important to the story... so because of these uber irking factors i hadn't watched it till now... But i found that i enjoyed it ~ it was SO well done~!! And i found that i appreciated the 'realistic' telling of it. But i still wished they had included Cassandra *mutters*...
I also saw Runaway Jury (w/ John Cussak and Rachel Weiss) - that was good also ^__^ I thouroughly enjoyed that one... especially the ending ^0^
okay. Now i'm done....

Date: 2005-07-15 02:09 pm (UTC)Lol Naruto ish awesome~~ I've read the volumes about Haku and Zabusa, and also the volume about their first exam (the written one) it's very funny~~ ^___^ and sad (about Zabusa and Haku i mean)
Actually i'm getting along well w/o volumes one and two, the story is easy enough to follow. I LOVE MOMOJI~!! >________< *dies* yeah...*cough* Maybe cuz my sign is rabbit, so i'm a little biased >.>;; I also really like Hatsuharu (the ox) - he's a great character. And i'm practically in love with Kisa T___________T her story was so sad.... i just wanted to grab her and go SQUEEZE~!! ;___;..... Okay... that sounded like a Shigure moment *cough* Yeah... i think i can say that i love that manga now ^___^ Even if it is a little weird... Especially how everyone is hitting on everyone else - wtf~~ aren't they in the same family 0___0 especially Kyo/Kagura... isn't she older than him too~? >___< I don't think i wanna think about that... it's just too gross.... >o<;; (the incest implications, not the age difference)

Date: 2005-07-14 09:40 pm (UTC)I know! I was going, "WTF WHERE'S ATHENA?" But I don't remember a Cassandra in that particular story. I must be confusing her with Cassiopeia. Who's Cassandra again? ^^; And other thing...I find that Orlando Bloom didn't convince me he was Paris. I kept seeing Will Turner and Legolas as ghosts hovering around him. @_@ Yet! I did really enjoy the movie. ^^

Date: 2005-07-15 02:17 pm (UTC)Cassandra was a love interest of Apollo. In order to woo her he gifted her with the gift of prophecy. But still she refused him. He got angry and instead of taking the gift away, he added a curse to it. Her prophecies would ALWAYS be correct ~ but no one would ever be able to believe her. (That sucks, ne~?) Anyways... in Troy, Cassandra spends all her time warning everybody (even about the horse) but nobody listens and therefore they screw themseleves over. *nods* That's Cassandra, dunno if thats the same as Cassiopeia.
*laughs* yeah... i spent the whole movie going "Omg... that's Will Turner." and then we Paris did the bow and arrow sequence i was like "Omg... Revenge of the Legolas"... seriously~ What is he good for besides wielding a bow? Sorry to say but I don't feel that Orlando Bloom is that great of an actor... he seems to have a set of facial expressions that he recycles in all his roles. The part where he was chatting with King Priam in the garden about how much he loved Helen, i was having Will Turner Flashbacks >____< But psssst~!! *whispers* Don't tell Erica ~ she'd skin me alive 0___0;;

Date: 2005-07-15 07:43 pm (UTC)Ah! I know Cassandra! But I didn't know she had anything to do with Troy. I must've forgotten that part. No, Cassiopeia was supposed to be a virgin sacrifice to some sea-dwelling monster thingy, then some hero dude whose name escapes me saves her and they fall in love, blaa blaa blaa.
I really, really need to brush up on my Greek mythology. @___@
I know! You're just jealous of his bow wielding skill XDD *is smacked*
