I'm probably thought of as less of the intellectual type when people actually meet me in an environment other than school. At school, I tended to focus on whatever class I was in, because if I didn't my mind would wander elsewhere. At the same time, it was rather boring staying on one subject, so in my head I'd just constantly think of random stuff (i.e. what are the names of the members of Dir En Grey again?, the history of Egypt, whatever jrock song I was currently into, blah blah blah). I guess that attributed to why I barely talked in school. I was just thinking constantly in my head that I didn't realize it! (<---it took Mr. Cochran's final project, which was about ourselves, to get me to realize this. At one moment, during the presentation, I paused for a second [while in my head it seemed longer] and thought, "Wow, that's why.") So at school, I was pegged as the quiet, almost silent, bookish type (which isn't far off actually) that the teachers could count on to do well in everything. I also had a bit of a photographic memory. At one point, one girl was talking about our valedictorian and saying how she just memorized stuff before the test instead of keeping the knowledge as she went along. I thought, "Hmm....sounds sort of like me. I just memorize my notes down to the doodles I have on each page, but somehow it sticks more with me." (<----yeah, in my head, as I was remembering a certain subject, I was flipping through the papers my notes were on. Its like I had downloaded my notebooks into my brain. Haha, that's rather funny when I think about it.)

But, if I'm somewhere that I am comfortable being at (mainly my room(s), or anywhere that there aren't a lot of people. Yes, I do have slight agoraphobia.), and as long as it with people I'm familiar with, I'm more willing to speak up. At those times you'll see how dorky I can get over a videogame (Devil May Cry baby!), exactly how much I enjoy anime and manga (I have quite a collection, just ask [livejournal.com profile] grod8404 or [livejournal.com profile] coastieangel), how me and my brother have the weirdest sense of humor (and how crazy my mom can act), or even how I treat my cats like part of the family. I'm not used to having particularly deep conversations with anyone. At my home, we usually just have brief, casual talks (Santos nor I are really talkative anyway). So if someone does try to get me into some face to face "deep talk", I'm like a deer in headlights. (<---this is probably why I prefer instant messaging. I can think before I type and not worry about long, awkward pauses.) And unlike some of my friends, I don't have any major drama in my life (really, no drama at all). That's why my LJ is mainly (mad) ramblings of anime/manga/hong kong movies/music/videogames/fanart/etc. . This is probably the most serious post I'll ever make.

(Remember how I said I'd think of other stuff besides the main subject? As I was typing this, I was looking at pics from the Prince of Tennis Musical. Tenimyu cracks me up. Haha, I guess even when I try to be serious I still think of other stuff.)

Phew, glad I got that out of the way (and why I felt the need to say this, I have no idea. This was probably brought about by the fact that some of my relatives make me feel like a nobody). Now then, lets go back to what I usually talk about.

Disclaimer: The following is some rather long notes regarding Paranoia Agent volume 3. There are so many anime/manga that I watch/read that occasionally I have to take notes as I go along to keep track of the details (usually very detail-heavy series). Major Spoiler Alert ahead, so if you don't want to have episodes 8-10 spoiled, or have no interest in PA, skip this post. (They might be a little incoherent, so my apologies.)

Paranoia Agent volume 3: Serial Psychosis )

Next post will be the D.Gray-man fanfic I started writing the other day.

Title: The Unlucky Miranda Lot
Author: [livejournal.com profile] kit_kathy
Fandom: D.Gray-man
Rating: G
Spoilers: none really, unless you haven't read past chapter 19 (since it's set pre- and during chp. 19)

Miranda Lot is unlucky... )

Damn, I had forgotten how tiresome writing can be when I started this fic. But, I'm quite satisfied with the end result.

As always, don't read if you don't want to (I don't think anyone else on my friends list reads D.Gray-man anyway.) If you do read I will be very surprised.

Blargh, I hate onions! Onions are one of the only vegetables that make me gag and feel physically sick (along with celery ::shudders::). Don't believe me? If I even get a whiff of onion smell in what I'm eating, I will not eat it. If I bite into something and there is even the smallest amount of oniony taste in it, I will spit it into a napkin and not touch the food anymore. (That sounds strange doesn't it? And such a waste of food, haha.) Which is what has happened now. Damn you Hot Pocket!! Its funny how I'd rather starve, than eat something with only a smidge of onion taste on it. Bleh...I'm a strange one.

For some odd reason, I'm looking at Beyblade pics. That show is so awful, and yet I love it so much. But I can't help it, Kai and Rei are just so cute.

Random Stuff, i.e. pencilboards and doujinshi pics that make Kathy feel like a pervert. )

And finally, some random meme I've seen floating around:

a. Post a list of 15 fandoms.
b. Have your friends list guess your favourite character from each one.
c. When guessed, bold the line, include the character name, and write a sentence about why you like that character.
I'm not doing that part.

1. Prince of Tennis
2. Fruits Basket
3. Saiyuki (including Gaiden and Reload)
4. Legal Drug
5. Bleach
6. Final Fantasy VII: Vincent Valentine ♥
7. Hana-Kimi
8. R.O.D. The TV (The Read or Die series)
9. Ghost in the Shell: Stand-Alone Complex: Motoko (also Batou, Togusa, and the Tachikomas)
10. Fullmetal Alchemist
11. Gokusen
12. Weiss Kreuz
13. Naruto: Iruka (also like Kakashi and Yondaime)
14. Perfect Girl Evolution (a.k.a. The Wallflower)
15. Peacemaker Kurogane

If ANYONE replies to this and guesses right, I will be surprised (mainly 'cause I don't expect any one to respond. Then why am I doing it? Because I'm in a silly mood). Oh yeah, I have more than one favorite character in all of these.

EDIT: # 6, 9, and 13 guessed correctly by [livejournal.com profile] knukles_
