From the impenetratable darkness, it appears!

An update, that is.

It's been more then a month since this place was presented with a new post. During that time, finals came and went away, and I went back to Malaysia for my holidays.

My cousin came back from Australia on the 23rd, and since then, I've been to his house as much as possible. Played endlessly, of course, no question about that. And yes, of course, we soon went to Kino and as expected, brought back bags of books.

My (elder) brother came back to Malaysia, and my mom went to Macau with a few of my aunts and cousins. Good thing for me, I didn't go. A place filled with nothing but casinos would most definitely drive me batshit insane, just from the sheer boredom and lack of things to do.

Met up with my (rather emotionally distressed) friend, who returned the books that I borrowed to her (Shinigami no Ballad, volumes 1 and 2), and sorted a few things out.

Then comes the bad things. Anticipating the horrible net connection in Malaysia, I brought home quite a few books, my PSP, and my PS2 to keep me entertained. I would've had my DS to had it not been for my cousin who borrowed it and told me that I'd see it again in a day or two, got confined and ended not coming back until I went back to Malaysia.

Although there was plenty of things to do, the most that I planned to do was play with my PS2. But as Murphy's Law would have it, it broke down, probably due to old age (4-5 years?). I managed (somehow) to keep myself entertained for the entire time I was in Malaysia, though.

Manga:
-Tegami Bachi - Volumes 3-4 GET!
-Toradora! - Volume 1 GET!
-.hack//XXXX - Volume 1 GET!
-Bartender - Volumes 7-8 GET!
-Ikoku Meiro no Croisee - Volume 1 GET! (Awesome stuff)

Also got another Ryogi Shiki figure.



1/7 scale, S$102.

I must say it was worth the money. Look closely, the details on the kimono are absolutely fantastic.

Or you can look at it here since my camera sucks.
