I wonder what happened to my idea of using song lyrics for titles…
Everyone and their mother should listen to the 5th opening from Hitman Reborn. If only there was a way to share it… Ah well. If you’ve “GottaHaveIt” you’ll figure out a way to get it I guess.
Spent the 1/2 the weekend catching up on 2 years of Reborn eps. Surprisingly easy to do when you remember that between the themes, recaps, and omake, you’re lucky to get 15 mins worth of content in your average ep. Dunno why I bother sometimes. I started watching the show for the stuff that’s in the first 20 eps, not to see what it’d have been like if Goku joined the mob.
And if you have the opportunity, never play a game called “Mir II”. Even if you’re bored and have nothing else better to do. You’d be better off sending money to Nigerian princes than playing that game for free. It’s that bad…-_-
edit:
By the way…
That’s only the tip of the iceburg, though, and it turns out to be quite the page turner. But that’s to be expected from Tim Zahn. Almost makes me want to go out and buy everything he’s ever written, sight-unseen, just ’cause I’ve loved the (*counts on fingers*) now 9 other books I’ve read of his.
I guess the library hadn’t been invented yet when I wrote that… Through the wonders of various bookstores and the lovely Brevard County Library system I’ve managed to read quite a bit more since then. I’ve read most of the Blackcollar books, own the Cobra Trilogy (dunno what that Cobra War thing is though…:/), own all the SW books, read the Dragonback books, read all of the Quadrail books and own the first (and fourth when it comes out), own the Icarus Hunt, read the Green and the Grey, and read Manta’s Gift (which bears quite the resemblance to a certain James Cameron movie that came out last week). So in short (I can do that?!) most of his novels and a couple of his short stories. ”…makes me want to go out and buy everything he’s ever written…” still applies.

Aimee B Lyrics
” Future In My Hands “
Standing where I should be
Believing as I’m told to believe
Being who I should be
Doing what I should doDid you hear what I said?
Did you get what I meant?
What you saw is an illusion
You’re living in delusionGoing on and on I have the future in my hands
Getting lose from days I never could get over
Going on and on until I’m finally myself
Getting out of this dishonest world I never wanted
Now is the time
Now is the timeAsk me if you’re anxious
I’ll give you all the answers
Truth or dare – it’s your choice
Your truth is what you wish forWho am I to tell you that the future’s in your hands?
Set me free from lies and cold deceptions, I’m so scared
Going on and on across this land, across the time
Going on to see, to feel, to breathe
I’ve always wantedSleepless nights I’m spending
Counting all the words that broke my heart
I’m leaving all my past here
Then I’ll see the world for sureGoing on and on I have the future in my hands
Getting lose from days I never could get over
Going on and on until I’m finally myself
Getting out of this dishonest world I never wantedNow is the time
Now is the timeChase after time
Chase after time.

Ya know… I watched all of the DMC eps and never heard that song. Then a while back I came across that track and fell in love. It’s right up there with LIFE and Owarinai Yume. Stuff like that’s just inspiring…
I mentioned in my last entry that I’ve been kinda bored (what last entry? The one that the average, untrustworthy peons don’t get to see…:x). I’m cycling through 3 different games and don’t feel like playing any of them more and more often (to be fair, I’m just about done with 2 of them though). I’d go out and buy something new, but I need to not waste money… :/ Le sigh…
Ended up getting a new set of screwdrivers over them though. The battery on my DS can only hold a 30 min charge now, so I decided to buy a new battery and didn’t have anything small enough to actually get the screw on the battery cover loose. If I keep this up, I might one day be able to say I have an actual collection. Whee…
