Being good on one of DC’s most sweltering days.
I saw an interesting post by a DC Blogger. The post rang like an eerily familiar bell, as I am a big introvert myself.
I just finished watching an anime over the weekend called, Karin (かりん). It was really one of the most amusing animé stories I have seen so far. Most of the cast of characters are pretty quirky and crazy, in particular, Winner Sinclair, the exchange student-cum-vampire hunter. Karin is a high school student who also happens to be a vampire… Not your average blood-sucking one, but a blood producing vampire… As such, she needs to bite people to get rid of her excess blood.
One thing I have noticed for the last three summers is the widespread epidemic of flip flops for fashion in the U.S. I have an absolutely intense dislike of flip flops as everyday wear on the street and find nothing nice about them, considering they seem to carry very minimal hygiene for footwear in such a dirty city (well… people here tend to be dirty too, but that’s up for a completely separate discussion).
I am finally going back to Belgium for a little bit. Yaaaayyyyy!!! 
:D I leave in March and will spend about 15 days there. I haven’t seen my old cronies since the holiday season of 1999-2000. I went to art school with most of them when I lived there. Now it will be interesting to see where they all are in their lives. Also, I will get to use my Belgian passport for the first time in Belgium.
Yeah, I can’t wait for next year’s releases of Kingdom Hearts 2 and Ōkami… :
I happened to be researching some Japanese reference (I can’t recall what it was exactly), which then led me to Jean Snow’s posting who mentioned a book based on a supposed true account that came from a posting on the Japanese popular bulletin called 2ちゃんねる (2 Channel). Along with the book, it was also made into a tv drama and a movie which made it a pretty popular talked about story in Japan.
