New Sailor Moon anime is coming in July 2014! :D

It's gonna be closer to the manga, now we need the original voices for the Senshi, Tux, and kitties, and we've got a perfect anime. :heart:

I'm going to at least be working on art. Writing, music, filmmaking - whatever I'm inspired to do. I'm going to read more books instead of moping around. I'm going to eat better food and exercise regularly, and finally put some damn weight on my tiny frame.

2013 was the worst year of my life, bar none. Nothing happened. Obviously the turning of the year isn't going to magically change everything, but perhaps that symbolic change can be the inspiration for growth... eventually meet someone else. Hopefully by that time I'll be a more attractive person.


I'm sorta new to these forums, and I don't really feel like it's my place to talk to others about personal stuff, BUT I've been checking up on the off-topic section daily, so it bums me out when others here are seriously bummed out too...I've gone through a lot of junk with girls in the past too. I don't like giving examples about bogus situations I've gone through because everyone's different, so I'll just say that, like, 3 years of my life were spent hating myself for not being with whatever girl I really dug at the time. I couldn't sleep, bored my few friends to death pining over them, etc.
And there were times when I met really rad girls, but I was so bummed out about other girls that I didn't try to start a new relationship that might have worked out well for me. So, basically what I'm trying to say is just go forward.
Reading and writing are great to kill time, and doing them make you feel better about yourself. A lot of writers write because they have no one else to talk to but the people who will one day read their work. Writing and reading hard to do, and they're lonely acts, but at the end of the day writing a story or journaling or finishing a book just make you feel good about yourself(at least for me and the people I talk to).
Even though the end of the year doesn't really mean anything, I've found myself cursing the past year as well.
And my frame is tiny too, bro. When I wear a big coat I look like a bean bag chair with stick legs. Oh well. ^_^
I used to work in a factory and I was really happy because I could daydream all day -- I.C.
And thanks to EVA, I've started like myself and that has made me very happy. Mr. Anno, please keep working on EVA a lot more.
and thank you so much for everything!!

It's been a productive day doing things that amount to nothing. I got my tuition paid and I got Ubuntu to run on my Nexus 7 (not Ubuntu Touch, but a proper Ubuntu Desktop Installation for ARMv7). I then spent the next four hours reverse engineering Katawa Shoujo to run on it. It runs really well, too. The downside is that there is no sound and no cutscenes, just skipping over the latter without any input. It's quite the hack, but it works (also no license violations!).

I need a hobby.

New laptop, first smartphone, new game system; all within a span of three days. All this new tech to play with and I'm mostly sitting here going


I haven't even booted up my laptop yet, mostly because I'm not looking forward to properly porting all my files and settings (aka my life for the past two years) from my previous laptop. It'll have to be done within the next couple of weeks though....

Applied for a Job last Friday (4th).
Got called on Monday for a Tuesday Afternoon interview.
Arrived expecting to stay 20 minutes, which ballooned to an hour and a half.

Another position I applied for before that called me on the Wednesday, offering me an interview next Monday. For a position related to something else I did - while at the same time I was familiar with the company from that position I had back in 2008, when they were a vendor to the company I was with. Which meant I'd met the person on the phone....

And finally, I've another one up in Lurgan, on the 17th.

So, that makes a Grand total of Three interviews in the space of a month.

Which makes a surprising turnaround from 'The place I was interning at closed down due to economy'

Applied for an internship on a special needs school a whole couple of months ago, almost forgot about it and after tons and tons of denials from other schools, I finally got the opportunity to be a student teacher. (Luckily I'm not an English teacher :wink: )

Start my first non-internship actual-job-thing on Monday. Took most of yesterday to get down here, actually moved in today. I'm kind of freaking out with the whole "completely independent", making new friends and "not being too lazy to cook" thing. I also don't have a car at present, so I'm worried about coming off as strange needing to bum rides off of people. Finally, there's a Tornado Warning. Bring it on.

Better than being looked down by the world. Actually, I've distanced myself away from anime and -- in certain areas where I disagree -- its fandom.

I have no problem with you folk here, and I finally made my peace as Eva still has relevancy to me, but the anime fandom elsewhere tend to be narrowminded and fight over even the most trivial of issues; it was as if the opinions of a clique would be heard across the ocean, only to be ignored at the Japanese doorstep.

Instead, I found that I was better off and comfortable appreciating real young women who aren't necessarily celebrities but normal.

It's a mystery to me how there can be something as an "anime fandom", since anime is just a label for certain types of animated movies/series and varies extremely from genre to genre and even from work to work. Same is with video-games.

But yes, as always when a huge amount of people praises something, most of them are incredibly ... let's call it puerile.
