Manga Recommendation #16 - Gosan no Heart

Name: Gosan no Heart
Author: Ogawa  Chise
Genre: Yaoi, School Life

Basic run down:
Miki doesn't take love seriously because if he does it becomes tiresome "he treats love like a game" using girls as he wishes. One day he overhears Udou unsuccessfully trying to reject a girl and steps in declaring that Udou belongs to him " But what starts out as a way to relieve the boredom of daily life quickly becomes serious.."
OHHH!!!

My thoughts:
Firstly with School Life and Yaoi being my favourite genre combination ever I had such high expectations for this manga. and I was not let down!!
The art is wonderful and even though the story line isn't exact original it's still so sweet and definitely one of my favourites~
It's delightfully hot and funny.
Do you guys remember the "Ferris wheel sex" that appeared in Junjou Romanitca and how delicious it was?Well this manga has one tooo! It was so hot I'm not even mad that it's not original ehehe

also yeaaa I know being attracted to a 2d character is socially unacceptable but Udou's brotherrrrr... *drools*

Anyway:
READ IT! please (ω)

So, it seems I'm an adult

What have I been doing with my life these two week I hear no one ask.
OH WHERE DO I BEGIN~!

Nah, I'm just kidding, I haven't really been doing a lot. After receiving my results from the exams that I worked my butt off studying for...I am going to university in just under 2 weeks!
How insane is that...?
Actually thinking about it, it's not that insane: a load of people go off to university/college every year, it's not a big deal, but it feels so strange to me that I will be going away...it's like I've reach a major milestone or something. I always thought I'd go to university but now that it's actually happening...it's a little surreal.

At the moment I have been busy preparing to live away from home, my parents seem more concerned than I am about the whole thing - which is strange because my older brother is studying in a different country (Okay..he's studying in Scotland..) and I'm going to be (depending on traffic) 4 hours away, so it's not like they haven't been through this before.
My mum has been giving me all sorts of food tips, asking me what I'll be cooking ; what I'll have for breakfast, lunch and dinner saying things like "Laina what do you think you'll eat everyday?" like I'm meant to plan every meal I have for the next few months (...assuming I'm going home for Christmas ehehe).
My dad just wants me to learn self-defence. He said to me "I expect you to call us on the first Friday with news that you've joined a self-defence class" to which I responded that there was no need for me to take a self-defence class because the chances of me being attacked are very very low considering how I don't plan on leaving my dorm room. Needless to say he wasn't too impressed with this remark and went all "ohmygod can't you be serious for once" on my ass.

Due to the fact that I won't be living at home, I'm going to have to buy my own crap from now on. No more "I'll just put this in the shopping trolley while my dad is over there getting bread and hope he doesn't notice when we get to the scanny thingy" and that is the story of how my cherry coke addiction started...
ANYWAY, because I have to buy my own food I needed to set up another bank account and sort out internet banking. Unfortunately for me, as someone who hates calling people, all of this needs to be done over the phone. Even though I had to ask the lady to repeat herself many times because I had no idea what she was talking about and I couldn't hear her because my family is too loud, everything is sorted and I have cards that magically give people money in return for food and things.

Something that has recently become painfully clear to me is that: I'm going to have to make friends.
Now, I'm not the least sociable person in the world, in fact I go out with people quite often. The only problem I have is that I find talking to new people such a chore and the awkwardness when you're trying to get to know someone unbearable.
I've had my group of friends for a while now; out of that group the friend I've had the longest I've known for around 9 years, the ones who I was 'closest' with I've known for 5 years. My point is: I've known these people for such a long time 98% don't actually know the real me and now I have to find new people, be nice to them and hope they like me.

Speaking of which the whole "making friends" situation could be quite problematic because I've decided that I'm no longer going to hide my true self which I've been doing for nearing 10 years out of fear that those people would no longer like me. Behaving the way you think people want you to and constantly worrying that if you were to show your true colours they would reject you - it's tiring.
So I will drag myself out of the perverted closet and parade around screaming my love for dramas and BL films, yaoi manga and "foreign" music and hope to god there is someone out there who likes someone like that...if not, maybe now it the time to accept my fate of being alone forever.
Oh wait...I still have my parents.

So, to summarise, what I've been doing these past few weeks: preparing to live and study away from home like a good university student and hoping that once I muster enough courage to be myself people wont hate me (...I've always been watching a hell of a lot of dramas with Haruma Miura in because I love him)

At the end of these long text posts I usually put a few photos...but honestly I haven't taken a photo in a good 3 weeks...oops!~

  • Lemons - they will always be at the top of my list

  • Haruma Miura -  that man is super pretty and has become my current obsession
  • Thranduil (Lee Pace) - from the first moment I saw him on screen back in December 2012 I loved him.

I've had my window open for 2 weeks now xD
  • Did I say Japanese doramas? ehehe

Extra Feelings - Boku no Kareshi wo Shokai Shimasu

Boku no Kareshi wo Shokai Shimasu

(Hii~ For all of those who came over from the original post on [INH] I'll start with the reason behind the rating and for anyone who cares random thought commentary is down below it. )

Why rate it 4/10?!

Well, I mentioned what I liked about the film in the original post. I really like films that are set in a school or university, I'm not sure why but it's my preferred setting ^-^

I have to be honest here, I feel like I reacted very badly to this film - or at least not in the way that I think was intended. It's quite sad because I know that my 15 year old self would totally have got a kick out of this film with its adorable kissing scenes with a little bit of soft core sex thrown in, but right now I can't look past how unrealistic some of those sex scenes look.
I'm going to exclude the 4th story from this statement and to some extent the 1st story, because I really enjoyed the love scene of the 4th story and the 1st story's scene wasn't too bad

But for me the second and third story's sex scenes were a bit...off. The second one wasn't awful, in some parts it was actually alright, but it had that awkward part where they were 69-ing and their heads were in the wrong place and at one point the camera was at an awful angle and I'm pretty sure I saw Taiki sucking fresh air. The 3rd one had the same problem, Shun was meant to be 'servicing' Eiji but his mouth looked like it wasn't doing anything, his hand was there pretending to hold Eiji but it was painfully obvious that he wasn't doing anything like that.
Yes I understand that this is acting and they're not expected to have full on sex with each other blah blah blah but..just changing the angle of the camera could have made these scenes so much better and frankly, just believable.

If those scenes were taken out (or redone) I would definitely have enjoyed this film so much more and I would even rate it 7/10
I think we could have lived with a few kissing scenes, couldn't we? (≧ω≦)

*~.~*

Random Thought Time:

For the record: it get's embarrassingly weird from now on:
Story 1
Okay we've got a student here. Shohei? Shuhei? Shouhei? Someone say this guy's name clearly so I know what he's called PLEASE!
I'm going with Shuhei.
Shuhei hears something through the door. Sensei is having inappropriate fun times with a student, wahey!
Is this Shuhei's girlfriend?
Sensei is pretty and invites him in. SENSEI IS SO PRETTY.
the room is unnecessarily large and empty
massage? Do school doctors give massages?! I should have visited our school doctor more, oh wait...we didn't have one.
Did he just ask him if he has a girlfriend
UWAAAH SENSEI INAPPROPRIATE TOUCHING THIS IT TURNING INTO A JGV
oh, is that it?
NO THAT'S NOT IT!
HENTAI SENSEI!!!!! HENTAI HENTAI HENTAI!!!

I'm going to assume that Shuhei was sexually frustrated because he now seems happy with his girlfriend. Thank you Sensei for helping him out *thumbs up*

Story 2
Shinji is quite cute reading the newspaper at breakfast like he's a 40 year old salary man.
EHHHH!??!?! Why is everyone naked?!!?!?!
oh they're not really naked, it's just Shinji being pervy ahaha
all the girls are clothed but all the guys are naked, how delightfully homosexual of you Shinji
he's just waiting for him on the bed. Completely naked. Even though he's not naked. But he's like on the bed naked.
UWAAAH SHINJI IS ATTACKING TAIKIIII
JGV JGV JGV JGV
*moaning from both parties*
TAIKI TAIKI SHNJI  TAIKI!!!!! SHINJI!!!!

Story 3
UWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH SHUN WAS WATCHING BOKURA NO AI NO KANADE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I could recognise that film even if I was blindfolded, tied to a chair with headphones on.
Something about making a film...something about girls....girls are making excuses. Conclusion? Eiji is making a film he needs a girl but they girls don't want to/can't appear in it.
Now Shun is wearing a dress pretending to be a girl. I do love crossdressing, it makes me so happy.
OHH I'VE SEEN THIS SCENE BEFORE - a long time ago!!
Eiji just told Shun he loves him
and bit his cat ear
and then his real ear
OMG HE WAS WATCHING BOKURA NO AI NO KANADE
I'd just like to point out the inconsistency, Shun is watching the film at the start of this story: he's watching the part where Maki is having sex hardcore  BUT at the end of the story when Eiji lifts the laptop screen we see Maki kissing Ruiku....in Bokura no Ai no Kande this scene comes like...5 minutes before hardcore sex time! Which makes me think that either there was some flashback scene I cant remember in BnAnK or the film replayed itself. But to be honest, I think it's safer to assume Shun and Eiji are time travellers.

also...did anyone else laugh a little bit when they found out that Eiji pretty much just filmed himself having sex. AHAHA!!
I feel like a lot of you are going to be staring blankly at your computer screens so I'll just tell you why its funny! Eiji = the name of a JGV actor. 
shh it's funny in my head

Story 4
Souta is worrying about Valentine's day? That's okay bro, I worry too. I worry about all the cards and gifts I'm going to get and how I won't have anywhere to put them all. Jks, no one sends me anything. *sobs*
Kouki is like super popular and Souta is completely in love with him
I think is where Souta and I differ, if Kouki asked me to help him with his bags I would be like "dude, you don't need help! those bags have handles, you could carry 7 in one hand" and then tell him not to be so lazy...of course now I can see why I don't get the guys and Souta does...hm..
Ohhhh I do not like leather sofas, sure they look good but they are so useless. We have leather sofas in our house and these are what's wrong with them 1) in Winter, yo' ass is frozen. 2) in Summer, yo' ass gets stuck. 3) Every other occasion, you move a bit and it starts making fart noises which is just embarrassing. 4) you try to prove that the sofa made to fart noise and not you but the sofa is 100% against you and refuses to cooperate thus making everyone think you farted. 5) Have you ever tried sleeping on those bastards? Yeah it's all rainbows and butterflies as you're going to sleep but you wake up sweating like a beast and then have to peal yourself off it.
Sorry this has turned into a serious rant but nothing is really going on in the film, Kouki only gave Souta a present just now so...we're not missing much
NOOOOOOOOOO NOT THE CAKE!!!!!!!!!
Your uniform is dirty...perhaps you should take it off.
Don't look at me like that, I'm just being practical.

annnnd roll those credits, OHH PICTURES!!! I'm stealing them ehehe xD

It's not 'obsession' it's infatuation mixed with devotion

こんにちは!~

Recently I've been really getting into Japanese doramas. Well, to be more accurate - I'm becoming more and more obsessed with infatuated by Haruma Miura.

It's quite a funny story about how I first came to know about his existence. Actually, it's not that funny...
A while ago I became curious about JGV and it wasn't until January (I think) that I decided to watch some videos - an action that I don't regret at all. One of my favourite actors is called Haruma, he's the cutest most sweetest guy ever, after watching all of the videos of him I could find I went to tumblr and looked at the tag - y'know, reblog some .gifs and all that.

While I was enjoying the  Haruma Tag I noticed that there wasn't just the wonderful JGV actor there was another beautiful man. I became enchanted by his warm bright smile and gorgeous hair and decided to google his fine ass.
I found that he's in a drama called Last Cinderella that was currently on tv in Japan (this is April time btw) So I promised myself that once I complete my exams I would watch this drama.

FAST FORWARD TO 12TH JULY.

I watched the first episode and became one hundred percent devoted to it, and more importantly, Haruma Miura.

Now because of my love for Haruma I decided I would watch EVERYTHING he's ever done...which seems to be quite hard because a lot of the old stuff is damn hard to find. Damn you internet.
But I've seen and fallen in love with the drama Samurai High School. SWEET HONEY GLOWING JAM THAT DRAMA WAS GOOD.
I'm going to watch a film Kimi ni Todoke which....it's quite funny...again, not really...

FLASHBACK TO  JULY 2012
...One of my really good friends (who has now abandoned me to go back to China which I'll probably complain about in a separate blog post) sent me a link to this film and told me to watch it - it was one of those multiple part ones - I watched the first part but because it was quite late and I had to go to school early the next day I didn't watch the rest....it seems I never had the chance to finish it.

FLASH FORWARD TO LAST WEEK
Now I realise that the film my friend sent me was KIMI NI TODOKE(!!!) and  I'm kicking myself because had I watched the film LAST YEAR I would have had more time to love Haruma.

It's like, say that you really like lemons...I mean you REALLY like lemons and you want to show your love to the lemons by eating them everyday. You want to appreciate the sexy sourness of the lemon by licking the fresh, juicy tangy centre for the rest of your life.
Then you came across a time machine hanging around in a street somewhere, you travel back in time to 30th July 2012.
Now you have 1 extra year to devote yourself to this delicious fruit of kings.
Do you guys see where I'm going with this?

Anyway, I love Haruma Miura. He has now become ones of my favourite Japanese actors, tying of course with Ryoma Baba. Speaking of whom, Baba-chan needs to do more dramas and films I'm feeling lonely without his perfect cheekbones to stare at.

I'm starting to go public with my love of these two men. I watched Samurai High School with my little brother and continuously told him that Haruma was the most beautiful being to ever walk this earth whenever he showed up on screen. I also shove my phone in his face and force him to tell me who the man is with a face carved by angels who is currently my background (Baba-chan btw)

Please excuse me while print out a butt load of pictures of these beautiful men and plaster them all over the walls of my bedroom while sobbing quietly about how perfect they are.


[P.S - I dare not imagine what would happen to my heart if these two guys were to appear in a drama/film together...oh sweet monkey balls *hyperventilates*]

A Story of My Childhood

Let me tell you a short story.
10 years ago I was 8 years old. I was in primary school, in the UK when it's summer and you're in primary school you usually spent 1 afternoon a week swimming. We would spend around 3/4 of the time doing skill practices and then the rest of the time playing games (water polo etc.) then at the end we would all line up at the side of the pool so we could get out in an orderly fashion...because this is England yo.

ONE SUNNY SUMMERS DAY IN JULY IN THE YEAR 2003 we were lining up ready to get out of the pool. I was the last one in this line. Because the kids in the pool are primary school children and they range in height, the pool is pretty damn shallow so even at 8 everyone could stand up and the water would only just go past their waist (on average). So I get bored of kinda floating in the water waiting to get out...so I stand up for a bit and I feel this sharp pain in my right foot. I was like "dafuq is that!?!?" so I look down expecting to see some giant jellyfish or something - y'know because I'm 8, but I don't see anything so I resume floating.

When it's my turn to get out of the pool I step up onto the ladder and look down at my feet...I notice A BUTT LOAD OF BLOOD on the steps. So I'm trying to work out where it's coming from...so I lift up my right foot and sure enough...It's pouring out of my foot.
The teacher is pretty concerned, gets my towel from the changing room and then wraps it around me..the pretty cool thing about this part is that I totally got a piggyback from one of the teaching assistants WIN.

The next few hours are a bit of a blur all I remember is that it hurt so badly but I totally took it like a boss and did not cry.

Next thing I know I'm in hospital with my mum while this doctor stabs my foot with a big ass needle and then yanks the huge piece of glass out of my foot, of course at this point I'm thinking is pulling the bones out of my foot it hurts so much (Numbing the area my ass IT HUUUUURT)
So to make a kinda longish story a little bit shorter. I stood on a piece of broken glass in the school swimming pool and my foot hurt like hell.

Why am I telling you this I hear you reluctantly ask.
Well..yesterday I was wandering around my kitchen where my mother dropped a glass earlier in the day.
You guessed it.
I stood on ANOTHER piece of glass.
This time I didn't got to hospital, my mum calmly removed the huge piece of glass (I'm not exaggerating this time...it was pretty big!~) out of the heel of my right foot. Oh sweet mother of god it hurt so much!!

The reason why I'm telling you all about this is that it's  pretty damn weird that the first time I got glass in my foot was 10 years ago in July and the second time THE SAME FOOT (sure a different place...) THE SAME MONTH.
10 YEARS APART.
Which makes me think....
a) Is this just some freaky coincidence as said up there...?
OR B) IS THIS SOME CRAPPY 10 YEAR THING SO WHEN I'M 28 I'M GONNA STAND ON A PIECE OF GLASS AGAIN AND POSSIBLY DIE BECAUSE THAT'S USUALLY HOW THINGS GO??!!

Oh T.T

Now that I've done story time...It's photo sharing time!
Woo!!~
I was reading my driving theory book and this beautiful lady showed up

30degreesC today and I was in town sweating my ass off.
Cloudy but give it 2 hours and that happens //points to next picture//

"I wandered lonely as a cloud..."

I downloaded The Sims on my phone - probably the best decision I ever made.
but anyway, these two sexy bros are totally doing it while this guy watches a movie HOW PERFECT IS THAT~ I laughed a lot longer than is socially acceptable :D

Theme Park AND crappy quality videos!!!

Theme parks are pretty fabulous places, I don't know about you guys but I love roller coasters. On Thursday 3 of my friends and I went to the Theme park called Alton Towers. It took us over 2 hours to drive (my friend drove and we stopped for a break a few times), he picked us up at 7.30/8am and when we got there just past 10am. I rode shotgun..if anyone cares ;)

When we got there it was kinda sunny, 2 of my friends had these voucher things which got them half price but in the end we had to pay something like £98 to enter this theme park. DATS A LOT OF MONEH.

We got a map and wandered around, we saw that the new ride The Smiler had a queuing time of 3 and half hours so we decided to wait until later in the day because the queues would have died down a bit...or so we hoped.

We went on some swingy ride thing...it was kinda cool except these tween girls decided to push in front of us so we had to wait until the next ride, I swear one of my friends was so close to beating the crap out of them. She gave them death glares and hoped that their safety harness thing would loosen a bit...not gonna lie, this concerned me a bit ahaha.

Anyway after we finally got on this ride and got swung around and turned upside down - my hair went crazy by the end - we moved on and joined a queue for another ride...Oblivion I think(?) we were there for around 1 hour and half before it started to rain and we were a long way from getting on the ride.
My friend turned around and saw that one of the cart things was actually stuck...on the track. Moderately freaky.

It got to around 2pm and we were so bored of standing in a line that wasn't going to go anywhere and because the line close at 4pm and the queue time for The Smiler is probably still around 3 hours like before.
Sooooo my friends and I cut out of the line and waltzed towards The Smiler.

We spent a grand total of 3 hours and 42 minutes waiting in the rain before we could go into....y'know that part where you're so close to being able to go on the ride you can taste it? Like you're centimetres away from the cart...waiting until it's empty? IT TOOK US 3 HOURS+ TO GET TO THAT POINT!
We should have been pissed off....but we were actually really excited.
The ride was epic!!!!!

I would say the wait was worth it but...no. No ride is worth waiting over 3 hours for especially if it only lasts a few minutes!~
But after we got off we were all buzzing, we decided to go on another ride!

We saw 1 ride that people were still queuing for so we joined the line.
As we were nearing the front...we saw a lot of people leaving. I asked this guy what was going on and he said that there was a problem and they're waiting for a technician which could take up to an hour.
There was a formal announcement saying that they're trying to get the ride working again. My friends and I discussed whether we should leave and forget about it or wait it out. We decided to wait 20 minutes and see what happens.
Luckily enough in around 15 minutes the ride was up and running again ^^

Things that annoyed me

We went on Thursday. Thursday is a week day. Children go to school on weekdays. WHY WAS THERE SO MANY PRE-PUBESCENT CHILDREN WANDERING AROUND? Go to school!

We spent 7 hours at this theme park and went on 3 roller coasters. I think we spent 10 minutes in total actually ON A RIDE.

SO. EXPENSIVE.


All in all. The road trip there and back was much more fun ;D I rode shotgun on the way there and on the way back I gave my position to my friend so I could sit in the back and talk about dramas, films and drag queens with my other friend.
GOOD TIMES!!!



You know what they say "Photos or it didn't happen"
HOW ABOUT VIDEOS?!!! ;D

Extra Feelings - Eternal Summer

你好 my schmooshy lemons
Today we have the Taiwanese film Eternal Summer..or 盛夏光年, or Shèngxià Guāng Nián
So let's begin.

Reason behind my rating is at the bottom

Eternal Summer

★ out of 10
Commentary
[1.05] Sweet jesus what happened?!
[1.34] In case no one noticed...this is a memory ^^

[2.26] Projectors!! Who remembers those!

[3.12] Jonathan is a good student
[3.30] Way to traumatise a child Shane..good job

[4.10] I know this song?!!! How do I know this song?
[4.48] That's cute.

[5.23] That is also cute. Guardian Angel...naw
[5.47] I still can't get over how smart those things are...to put your bag at the side of your desk, we had to put ours on the floor, THAT IS SO SMART

[7.02] And that...is how to make friends :L
[7.55] Now...I personally don't think this is an effective way of teaching but...whatever :)

[8.49] We're in High School now guys and Jonathan is laaaaaate! Jesus Shane you're so noisy!

[9.46] Kinda wish I went to this type of school because I know for a fact that I would be on of those girls who would hang around watching the guys play basketball...just a little creep :)

[10.24] SO CUTE
but....are you just going to leave that? Seriously?!

[12.26] Can the people at the back even see her?

[13.09] It's sweet that Jonathan is fixing her hair
[13.39] NO skipping school is bad! lol look at me preaching to you and being all hypocritical, like i've never skipped school xD

[14.45] Ear piercing? Okay. Yeah it's kinda cute.

[16.23] Look at that nervous look on his face! I think he knows what she might be insinuating

[17.26] Porn...? Seriously? Way to make everything more awkward Carrie!

[19.40] And at this moment I knew that I loved Jonathan - he's so pure and genuine. He can't fight his true feelings as much as he tried he just doesn't feel anything for Carrie. Now I sympathise for Carrie because she must blame herself or think that something is wrong with her because Jonathan reacted like that and not the way she expected.

[20.28] Is it that easy to sleep in class?! //sobs// I wish!

[24.31] I love Shane but he's such a tit.

[27.28] At the risk of using the same adjective over and over again: CUTE!

[28.49] Straight to the point...love it.

[34.08] Shane's jealousy is quite cute

[36.38] Oh Carrie what are you doing there *sigh* Looking for Jonathan? Good!

[41.06] If this was ANY OTHER situation I would have found it really sweet.

[41.19] Okay...I'm not entirely sure how I feel about this scene. NO Carrie, you know how Jonathan feels about Shane you shouldn't give him hope like that. At the same time, you are giving him something to work for so...I respect you for that.

[47.08] University. And Jonathan still has his shirt...ehhehe

[50.26] Formula 17 anyone?! I love that film xD

[51.54] Shane you're being an ass again, but you're sweet.

[59.36] Carrie is so lovely, getting

[1.00.20] NOOOO please take it well...please take it well.

[1.01.17] I'm happy to hear that he's serious about her, and that he was considerate enough to think about Jonathan's exams...
[1.01.58] My poor Jonathan though :(

[1.02.40] Oh you lovely thing :(

[1.04.06] HOLD UP I don't remember this!?
[1.04.58] Oh you sweet little thiiiing.

[1.07.21] They managed to kinda sort things out. Ahahah all of their friends complain so much!

[1.10.40] Carrie looks super pretty, I'm jealous :P

[1.12.50] Oh Jonathan don't say such cruel things when you don't mean it T.T

[1.13.48] NO. WAIT. NO

[1.14.35] Oh thank god!

[1.15.46] CUUUUUUUUUUTE

[1.16.55] I'm certain he's going to fall off

[1.18.19] annnnnd I just got chills.
Epic sex scene ahead!

[1.20.49] lol Carrie way to sympathise!

[1.22.29] YOU DONT HAVE TO! Shane is so sweet, he doesnt want to lose his best friend or his girlfriend. Having 2 people in your life that you care so much about must be so hard, trying to find
balance between them both

[1.26.04] Road trip with the love triangle (ugh I just had 5 attempts at spelling 'triangle' before I finally got it right that is pretty damn embarrassing)

[1.29.39] Thus my respect for Carrie increases.

[1.30.00+] The emotional climax of the film. Its all too much for me. Jonathan loves Shane, Shane has deep feelings for Jonathan and love for Carrie. Jonathan finally confesses to Shane. Shane then reveals that he knew that Jonathan was forced to be his friend, at first he wanted to get him in trouble too like the other kids but over time be developed real feelings for his friend - a deep love that only friendship holds. What is quite upsetting is that he doesn't share Jonathan's romantic feelings

So, why 7 out of 10?
Firstly I cannot believe how biased I was last time! I mean I really did not like Carrie - I hated her because I felt that even though she knew Jonathan loved Shane she STILL dated him, I felt that was a definite betrayal.
But now I realise like Jonathan, you can't help who you fall in love with.
What I particularly liked about her was she used her position to 'help' Shane get into University. When Shane and Jonathan were fighting she removed herself from the situation allowing them to hash it out.

What I liked about this film was how, even though there is a love triangle, there was no direct jealousy...like, Jonathan and Carrie didn't want to kill each other. THAT was nice to see!
The actors are gorgeous the storyline really pulls on your heartstrings and it didn't make me want to throw myself against a wall and start sobbing! Bonus!

"But like, if you liked it so much why not a higher rating?!"
Well, for a stupid reason really. I didn't really like the ending. I felt like there was too much uncertainty, I found myself wondering 'what's going to happen now? How awkward will that car journey be on the way back?!' After Jonathan confessed and Shane said "You really are my best friend" (or something like that) the film just...stops. I didn't really like that. I would rather know, or have some feeling of hope that the characters will be okay, but...I got nothing. But everything else is really good!

Untitled

Would you like to know something that annoys me about myself?
How sometimes I'm so freaking emotional.

I have a particular memory that evokes so much sadness I cannot stop myself from breaking down whenever it is mentioned. The thing is, it's not even that sad - like nothing particularly horrific happens... no one dies. It's just that remembering it makes me so unbelievably upset, I force myself not to think about it.

Sometimes I have really scary thoughts, thoughts that have literally reduced me to tears.
It was father's day last Sunday and we went out to dinner on the Friday before it. My little brother told us that there was this kid in his class who had lost his father and still made him a father's day card. I thought that was unbearably sweet....but then dark thoughts hit me. What if my dad died?  What would I do?
I literally broke down in the middle of the restaurant. Of course no one had no idea what I was suddenly crying about, I think at first they thought I was fake crying and they kinda brushed it off. I forced myself to stop crying for real and pretended that I was actually faking it like they thought. Stopping thinking about something when it has strongly affected you is a hard thing to do. Trust me.

At times there isn't something in particular that triggers these morbid thoughts. One time I was in my sociology class and I just looked at the students in my class and wondered what it would be like if I just wasn't there, if I just didn't exist. I didn't have a physical reaction to this..but I felt a strong sadness inside me that just felt like it was weighing itself on my shoulders. I don't know why I allow my mind to wander like this.
Things that usually wouldn't make me upset have brought me to tears. I listened to a song that I've heard and seen the music video of so many times without shedding one single tear, but suddenly it made me cry so much. Today, I accidentally stepped on a snail and sobbed for a good 5 minutes.

These things haven't just started happening, it's been going on for a while now. I haven't told anyone - there isn't much of  need to, they're just irrational thoughts and feelings.But somehow I feel better sharing this part of me with a group of people who don't know me in person, even if you guys now think of me as some emotional wreck.

I need to be clear, the majority of the time I am a quite happy, upbeat person that will always try to look on the bright side of everything...
..I just really needed to write this post.

Extra Feelings - Boys Love 2

Scroll to the bottom to see the reasoning behind my rating.

BOYS LOVE - A Schoolboy Crush
(or as I like to call it: Boys Love 2)

★★★★★★ out of 10

Commentary
[0.21] Oh fabulous quotes like the last one...loving the continuity
[0.38] NUDITY ALREADY?! Good start!

[1.21] The first time I saw this I was like "OMG TAISHIN!!!!" But nope...same actor different character - don't get confused!
[1.27] I forgot how beautiful Sora is...ahhh lucky Aoi
[1.59] Aww poor guy :'( But still getting dumped then sleeping with the gorgeous Sora...things could have been a lot worse!

[2.43] AWWWWWWW if Aoi doesn't take him up on that offer I WILL!

[3.23] Burning memories? Your suit is going to smell like smoke
[3.50] Alrighty everyone this is a concrete example of bullying. Poor Ichiyo is being victimised and mistreated by those guys - especially Riku. Putting words in his mouth "yes I wanted to carry it" NOOO AOI DO NOT ALLOW THIS! Guys, if you see anything like this happen you have the obligation as a human being to stand up for that person.

[4.18] I like how they greet their students. More schools should be like this one. Maybe its just because its the start of the year....I don't know.

[5.02] I dont know why but I find it really hard to pronounce 'aoi' 
[5.50] SO PRETTY!!!! SORAAAA

[6.05] Look at that lovely smile, and Aoi is just internally freaking out.
[6.38] Everyone is talking about him because he's so pretty.

[7.15] Strict about private life  A.K.A You're not allowed any!

[9.09] I really don't like rivalry...I find rivalry and jealousy are too closely linked
[9.32] BECAUSE YOU'RE SO PRETTY

[10.02] Eugh Riku I hate you. 
[10.42] YES YOU ARE BEING BULLIED :'((((

[11.58] OMG i really like Ichiyo, he's like "WHAT ARE YOU DOING!!!"

[13.29] I can't sneak to save my life, Sora has a fierce talent.

[14.00] Ah Aoi you're such a kill-joy 

[15.32] I find this scene really cute, the other students wanting to know more about Sora, and Ichiyo being popluar because of it
[16.22] I find this cute as well! Even thought Sora is slightly irritated by his admirers

[17.13] Any excuse to dive on Ichiyo, Riku I know your game.
[17.39] LOVE THIS PART TOO

[18.19] Can you all feel the cuteness radiating from this scene?!?!!?
[18.44] WOO SHOWER SCENE I mean...hygiene is important...Well done guys...

[20.29] ohhh Aoi don't freak out! I love it when Ichiyo says "the theory of evolution" (and when Sora says it later]

[22.28] Drinking with your fellow teachers....love it.

[24.05] More sexy sport times?! YAY

[24.51] I have no idea what that says but I like what's written on the back.

[25.40] I LIKE THIS PART! Aoi is so worried about the teachers finding Sora's phone and seeing his number. He's so cold.

[27.33] I don't like this part...Aoi is clouded by his worry he makes such an awful scene!

[29.30] Okay everyone my favourite part is quickly approaching. Aoi is searching for Sora's phone is his room - he finds a hell of a lot of money.

[31.12] This is my favourite part! Hiding under the bed - Sora...taking total advantage of the situation. And he gives Aoi a book WITH HIS PHONE IN!! Ah the wonderfulness of this scene is just too high to explain. Aoi totally could have stopped all of the problems himself if he had taken the book 

[33.58] I'm sorry Sora but that was too cold.

[36.55] Go away Riku I hate you

[37.45] Dont they close the curtains at night?!

[39.18] Ohhhhh Sora you told him!!! Stupid Riku thinking he can get whatever he wants just because his father is rich

[42.58] Noooo stop fighting! But...continue because Riku is an ass and he deserves everything he gets

[43-44 ] :(((( 

[50.00] Ichiyo NO. what are you doing. Stop! Sora you should have turned off your phone to save the battery...you silly boy :)

[55.20] This scene is lovely, I just adore how happy Sora is. Aoi you have made a beautiful young man super happy.

[57.25] Ichiyo did badly? and has now become depressed.

[59.55] See now Ichiyo that's your first mistake...You should never look at other people's phones without their permission

[1.00.36] Oh you did not just slap Ichiyo! Aw he loves him - but you still didnt have to slap Ichiyo

[1.01.20] OMG ICHIYO YOU'RE INSANE!
[1.01.50] Okay I know Riku is a complete ass but..he totally ran in there and stopped him.

[1.03.55] Well...to be fair Riku, you weren't exactly kind towards Ichiyo. I think Sora made a pretty valid assumption.

[1.06.13] I love English lessons, they make me so happy.
[1.06.56] Is Riku sad because he no longer has Ichiyo to torment, or he actually cares for him and  misses him.

[1.08.06] Sora is so pretty!
[1.08.46] Ichiyo!? You look insane :\

[1.09.32] And this everyone is how you make someone feel like an object - throw money at them and demand they sleep with you. Hell I'm offended on behalf of Sora.
Ichiyo if you really wanted to sleep with Sora you shouldn't have done that.

[1.12.00] This really shows a deeper level to their relationship.
And now I'm having completely mixed emotions towards Riku. Yes he is a complete arrogant bastard (excuse my language) who uses his wealth to manipulate the school systems and his peers. He belittles Ichiyo. But at the same time, Ichiyo revealed that when they were younger Riku used to comfort him whenever he cried showing that this assface wasn't always a dick (sorry again). At Ichiyo's funeral Riku is deeply affected

[1.14.56] again...no idea what this says.

[1.17.20] It's all downhill from here.

[1.23.40] Okay even as I write this I can feel myself about to cry. I have no idea why this affects me so much, but seeing Sora so happy to finally find his little brother only to see that he doesn't remember him just tears me apart.

[1.29.53] Aoi with a biscuit in his mouth is so cute, just a little brightness to an otherwise sad part of the film.

[1.38.09] OMG IT'S TOTALLY A DATE
[1.38.55] I hate this scene. More than any other scene in any film ever. Everything was going so well, Aoi and Sora has a good relationship, Sora was back at school, everything was good!Until Riku makes Sora believe that they are starting again... a fresh start, they would be friend's for Ichiyo's sake. When in actual fact this manipulative little bastard he was just biding his time. He honestly blamed Sora for Ichiyo's death and took it upon himself to 'punish' him. Whatever positive feelings that formed in the past 15 minutes have just been annihilated. Seeing Sora is a comatose state not only affected Aoi, but also nearly made me stop the film and sob for a bit. I'm not the type of person to cry at movies - I hardly ever cry (My friends tell me I am emotionally challenged when it comes to movies) but there is something truly horrific about this film that just rips my heart up into tiny pieces.

[1.46.30] I can't put into words how much hatred I feel towards Riku. Doing something like that to another human is worse enough, but to then brag about it. I'm so happy Aoi kicked his ass.

[1.50.00+] Okay this is the part of the film where I break down - not because I'm sad but because I'm so undeniably happy.
Just when you think that nothing more could possible happen to make you have such a strong emotional reaction, the two main characters share a beautifully pure kiss. My heart leapt out of my chest. That is such a lovely way to end a film.


Why 8 out of 10?!
Well, I was affected so much more by this film than Boys Love - in Boys Love it was only really the end that evoked sadness within me. But in this film, I was left feeling emotionally exhausted at the end! I was sad, I was angry, FURIOUS even, I sympathised with the characters, but in the last few minutes I was so happy. I think it's very hard to capture so many emotions and make the viewer feel so many different things in one film without it being disjointed.
Like I said in the previous post, I really don't like feeling sad. In Boys Love I felt really sad, but this film seemed to affect me more and I have no idea why.
I don't know If I should compare this film and it's predecessor, there were just so many similarities between the story lines and the aspects of both of those films for me not to compare them.

Extra Feelings - Boys Love

Hello!
Welcome to the special area. When I watch a film, Boys Love films in particular, I get very attached to the characters and often become way too emotionally invested in the film. Because I am currently redoing all of the posts made on [InsertNameHere] I decided to create this little series as something "extra" revealing my thoughts and feelings as the film progresses.

Scroll to the bottom to see the reasoning behind my rating.

So, let's start at the beginning!

BOYS LOVE 

★★★★★★ out of 10

Commentary

[0.56] Not a story of tragedy my ass! I've seen this I KNOW WHAT HAPPENS

[2.04] Noeru has such a soothing voice, I wouldn't mind him talking to me every night..only there wouldn't be much talking IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN....sorry It's a bit early to be perverted.
[2.20] Splash is a stupid name for a magazine I don't care what anyone else says, if its not a swimming magazine or anything fish related. No. Although, I do know a few Japanese magazines with weird names - actually most magazines have weird names. I take back my earlier comment :D
[2.46] COULD YOUR LEGS BE ANY WIDER APART - not that I'm complaining

[3.36] So pretty, this man has the face of an angel

[5.37] And the child reveals himself.

[6.20] Noeru looks older than Taishin...just saying. If he wasn't wearing high school uniform he could totally pass as an adult. Lucky for him. People like me who are 18 and can legally buy alcohol constantly get questioned because of our baby faces :\

[8.36] Noeru's casual flirting - he is so relaxed, I wish I was that relaxed when talking to guys...talking to anyone really. I always have this fear that I would say something and the person would have a lasting negative opinion of me. Ah it would be so nice not to care.

[9.23] Taishin feeling the effects of the champagne?

[10.03] This everyone is a prime example of how a Seme seeks his target
[10.25] and this....is how he takes advantage
[10.39] OOHOHOHOHHOOOOO

[11.14] Guys...you're being noisy shhhh those two guys will hear you
[11.49] DAT ASS
[11.54] He should probably buy one of those things to hold the shower head for him...his arm could get tired - I know mine would. But then again he might not take really long showers like I do. OKAY they're not really long showers, at least the length of 4 songs - averaging of 3 minutes each that just under 15 minutes worth of showering funtimes...that's not a long time (is it?!)

for the next 1 minutes I had intense feelings during this flashback.

[12.25] OMG what a devilish smile!

[14.13] EUGH CHIDORI
[14.39] Hold up! Is it that easy to leave class in Japan? "I don't feel well" We have to physically be sick before we're allowed to go to the sick room. In my secondary school we didn't even have a sick room, if we were ill we had to go to the front desk and sit there until we felt better. Must have been nice to walk into the school and be greeted by vomiting children...

[15.34] I really like these two together...shame Chidori is such an ass

[16.40] Noeru's agent is pretty
[17.20] NOERU YOU LIARRRR

[18.55] So much reluctance, poor guy. I cant imagine how he feels, having to go back to see the guy who violated you - not just that, to 'apologise' to him as well...Aw Taishin :(

[20.02] He's looking soooo Roman with that sheet! what are those things called...ugh hang on *googles* Toga! he's wearing what looks like a toga :D
[20.30] Okay....I don't care what point you're trying to make, it's rude to invite someone to your house (in this case blackmail someone to your house) when you already have a guest...ESPECIALLY if that guest was having sex with you!

[21.05] Pissed of Taishin is really pretty.
[21.54] Ohhh I bet you do ;D

[22.03] not used to rejection Noeru? :)
[22.11] DAT ASS!
[22.20] Apparently he's not used to rejection...and has a bit of a temper
[22.44] This must be so embarrassing for Taishin, having to tell his boss that he cannot finish his article - an article that is very important and could possibly improve his career and he must reject it  without being able to give him the REAL reason.

[23.01] It's actually because he's kinda being violated by a high schooler...

[24.22] Bro I think you've had enough..!

[25.46] Yes it's decided, Noeru is a little manipulative. BUT HE'S SO PRETTY!

[26.00] I find it amusing that Taishin boxes so intensely, he says that he enjoys boxing...yet he has such a slender frame.
[26.45] DAMN YOU CHIDORI

[27.48] Nooooo NOERU NUUUU! Ever seen a guy get out of his clothes so quickly before? That's the effect Noeru has on people!

[28.25] He has returned...Eugh Chidori
"right now Noeru is having sex with someone else" lol so casual

[32.01] Chidori has such an in sight into Noeru...shame he's such an ASS!!!
Chidori, bro, he's not going to choose you - let's accept this now so when you are confronted with him feeling happy with someone else YOU DON'T FREAKING KILL THEM! Can I just quickly change the plot? Someone comes along...probably another student at the school, this person takes a deep interest in Chidori who, over time becomes more and more aware of this person, forgetting about his feelings for Noeru. Noeru is allowed to happily live with Taishin while his friend is  Oh spoiler btw

[33.46] I love swimming scenes, does that make me sounds perverted?! Honestly it has nothing to do with the clothing choice I swear! I'm all about the sport ... *cough*
[34.18] lol yeah Noeru is hard work isn't he Taishin?! :L

[35.21] That pool is shallow - why is that pool so shallow?!

[36.47]  I love the playfulness of this :D

must resist saying dat ass again

[37.44] If someone was really drowning would you shake them underwater or would you BRING THEM TO THE SURFACE. Jesus Christ Noeru!!

[38.09] Noeru studying hard - that's what I like to see! Chidori doesn't....

[41.10] I LOVE THIS PART! Cute texting scenes are so...cute! This really shows how their relationship is developing.  I love scenes with Noeru's agent...so pretty :D

[42.10] DID YOU GUYS SEE THAT - MR AGENT TOTALLY LOOKED AT ME!

[43.26] Times like this I wish I didn't watch JGV so religiously...seeing two attractive guys in swimsuits one of them breathing so heavily - My mind is going places.

[44.08] OMG DON'T RUN IN THE POOL! DANGER! Every pool has a sign that says "No Running" If that pool doesn't have this sign then they are seriously breaching health and safety regulations, or Noeru and Taishin could just be ignoring the sign...which is unthinkable. Never. Ignore. A. Sign.

[45.00] Noeru is like "DA FUQ R U DOIN'?!"

[47.19] This is the part where we truly see Chidori's obsession with Noeru and how his jealousy is slowly destructing his mind
[48.30] I start to hate everything
DAMN YOU CHIDORI

[49.48] Stealing a man's painting is the worst thing you could do. Chidori why are you so cruel :(

[51.39] Chidori baring his soul...and after Noeru's heartless yet honest response it's enough to push anyone over the edge.

[53.03] It's not safe to be drunk in the streets at night Noeru! No!
[53.40] I cant stand to watch this part, I hate films with rape scenes - I feel angry and sad at the same time...those are two emotions that I don't like

[55.56] No Mr Sexy Agent don't be angry with him...IT'S NOT HIS FAULT!

[1.05.20] Of course he didn't keep his promise! He died!! Ah but you're too clouded with grief to see that. I forgive you Noeru.

[1.06.37] If you didn't get chills you're dead inside.Nah jks feel what you want it's just that I found this scene when they cried together was so heart breaking.

[1.08.42] Damn you Chidori!!!! *shakes fist*

[1.09.47] It's all downhill from here :(
At least Taishin elected to leave his job

[1.10.49] Now, I'm not one who supports violence, but I can't help but feel Chidori REALLY DESERVED THAT!
The evil smile he gave...I'm sorry Chidori, but I really don't like you.

[1.12.58] Takumi Saito YOU ARE SO ATTRACTIVE OMGGG

[1.13.51] This scene is cute as well :)

[1.14.13] Oh Chidori isn't there? SHAME. SUCH A SHAME

[1.15.01] Painting again!

[1.16.30] So cute Taishin...so cute!

[1.17.00+] I can't bare to comment on this horrific part of the film, everything was going so well: Taishin got offered a new job, Noeru was painting again, Chidori was nowhere to be seen...until he pops up with a freakin knife in his hand. NO CHIDORI NO.

[1.19.04] Does anyone else have a pile of scrunched up tissues and a tear stained face?

Why did I rate is 6 out of 10?
Well, despite the fact that I really liked the film, the story and the actors. I do not like being left feeling sad. Not at all.
I am okay with sadness at points in the film but if the film ends on a really sad note like...let's say, the attractive young model dies at the hand of the jealous childhood friend when the friend accidentally stabs him when he aimed for the man the model loved, I cannot function properly for at least 3 hours after watching sad scenes!

I suppose the film doesn't end on a completely sad note...Taishin carries Noeru into the ocean where they can be together forever. But for me, that is still sad - those characters shouldn't be in that situation, Chidori shouldn't have been such a jealous psychopath.

You know what I wish for? I wish there were more scenes with Noeru's agent. That man was fiiiiiiine. I think he's called Kenji Taniguchi ...??
Kanji is really hard *sigh*

Good Sunny Day Feel

Salut mes amis!~
I'm on such a high right now, I've just finished my 8th exam and it went really well! I'm so happy!!
So.....I'm going to share with you some chats/texts that I've gathered over the last few months, some from friends some are from random people others are just adorable Engrish - because I just love Engrish.

I've removed names and photos...I'm paranoid that if someone I know came across my blog they would recognise the names and realise it's me xD
You also get a small sentence explaining what the hell is going on....ehehe
(I'm pretty much always on the right side of the screen - grey and blue)

My friend is so innocent..and I ruined her

Cute Engrish (^ε^)

(I'm orange)
I hate Facebook so i never go on....i hate Facebook chat the most and here's why
(the 'I already saw it...' is from a previous message)
  
I made the mistake of telling him 'x' meant kiss and 'o' was hug...lol


Friend's status

Turns out he wasn't talking about the funeral...

...!
  
Just everything about this text cracks me up from the 'homosexual butt' to the 'covering up your excessive use of alcohol'

Cute Engrish again (^ε^)

 
...Before my speaking exam I asked my friend if he thought my grade would be good if I had a threesome with the examiner and the lady who sits in the corner...that way I wouldn't have to do the exam. Unfortunately the examiner was a cow so I sent a text to my friend after saying "I wouldn't ever have a threesome with her anyway"...you see the rest.

Just some internet creeps my favourite = Hi you like sex
I'm sorry, statement or question? :P

I had a moment where I could study because I kept thinking about this dude....I had to
(~εO)

He wants my body...He's never seen it, but he wants it

My Spanish teacher didnt kiss me T.T
"Weird and continental"

Manga Recommendation #15 - Koi Shitemasen!

Name: Koi Shitemasen!
Genre: Yaoi, oneshot


Basic Plot Thing:
This series is ongoing and I honestly can't wait for the next update!~

1- Back in university Nakajima was shy and a little nerdy ^^ One day he confesses to his junior Takeuchi who brutally rejects him. Now in the present day, Nakajima has totally reformed hoping to forget his demon junior he created a new Nakajima.
Unfortunately for him...Takeuchi managed to hunt him down

2- Ryoji Tsukano starts working as a personal servant for Yanase-sama TO SEEK REVENGE (!!!) because Yanase made his company go bankrupt...or something.
The 'revenge' plan doesn't go very well when Ryoji falls for Yanase's super sexy body and beautiful faisu.

My Thoughts:
I loooove this manga!
The first story was so cute, I wanted more but...like I said in Manga Recommendation #14 it's always the epic cute ones that are oneshots.
I liked how Takeuchi was all like "Naaaah bro you don't get to manipulate meeee" he's so sassy.
The only problem I had with the first story was that at the end...it's Nakajima's fault for not wanting to hang around and wait for Takeuchi to realise his feelings...This is the guy who harshly rejected him and then proceeded to use him. HELL NO. I'm pretty sure than anyone in Nakajima's situation would have got the hell out of them, or killed Takeuchi, either/or.
I'm sorry Takeuchi, you don't get to blame Nakajima -you're an ass. Hot. But an ass :)
I still love you though

As for the 2nd story -  I really liked it! "Tsukano...you came to attack? You're bolder than I thought *smiles*"  My favourite part!
It made me laugh sooooo hard when Tsukano's plan went belly up BUT THE END WHEN....yeah read it and find out ;)

Manga Recommendation #14 - Koi no Shizuku

Name: Koi no Shizuku
Genre: Yaoi, School life , One shot, SO CUTE



Basic Plot
1 and 2 - Two university students, Maya and Narusawa have a purely physical relationship...but that soon changes :D
3 - Tsukasa live above Miyakawa, he always drops things causing Miyakawa to return them, of course Tsukasa rewards him ;)
4 -  Takase is drawn to Sora (both high school students) his feelings develop..but wanting to protect his friend from himself Takase decides to pull himself.
5 - Kikisui works in a cafe. Recently Miyamamo has been showing up every day. He's just a normal attractive salary man with a huuuuge crush on Kiksui.

My thoughts
So I recently read this super cute manga, there are 5 oneshot stories and they're all pretty lovely ^^
My problem with manga is...when the story is so cute  you find it's only a single stand alone story. The  longer series are good but sometimes I feel like it's kinda run it course y'know....kinda like Junjou Romantica or Viewfinder. Don't get me wrong! I love both of these mangas!! It's just...I find the storylines to be way too long. like 70 chapters?? Not for me sorry (≧◡≦)

Anyways yeah.... I really liked this manga! One shots are too short!~

Little brother is cute

I came home from school to see this on my laptop.
He's super sweet...but damn his handwriting is awful ^o^

Tuesday, 7 May 2013

Gonna have to go on hiatus soon...

I don't like the word 'hiatus' I can never pronounce it properly.."Hi-Ay-tus"? "Hee-a-tus"? "Hay-tus"?(<- I've heard that before...pretty sure that's 100% wrong!)

Anyway...ya
My exams are coming up, earlier than last year. Last year I was on study leave from May until the start of June.
This year I have exams BEFORE the study break. So...that's shit.
I'm gonna try and get my Spanish Speaking exam out of the way before I fully concentrate on studying super hard for a couple of days before my Exam Period starts on May 13th!! That's waaay too soon :(

Babaryo I need encouragement.

"GANBARE!!!"
God I love this .gif <3

I will still be updating this random thing I call a blog...but be warned it may just be me complaining and whining about exams ehehe

Manga Recommendation #13 - Senpai

Title: Senpai
Genre: Shounen-ai, CUTE
Senpai
Basic Plot
Kou's senpai and boyfriend/lover died exactly one year ago in a car accident, he's feeling super depressed and thinks about skipping class. First year Saki sees him and offers him comfort thinking he's ill...he walks him to school. Kou is shocked when he sees Saki because he looks like his senpai. The two bond over the next few days and get closer and closer...!

My Thoughts
OH DEAR GOD THIS IS CUTE
I don't really read Shounen-Ai..I'm more of a yaoi person, but THIS WAS SO ADORABLE! The relationship was so lovely. I had to remind myself constantly that there wouldn't be any hot sexy scenes because...it's not yaoi, but at the end...I just really really wanted the manga to end with insanely steamy sex!!!
Maybe i'm too perverted for Shounen-ai now...Ah, where did my innocence go!?!

Anway...!
Yes, It's good! READ ITTT!!!
And fantasise about the graphic sex scene that should have been included ehehe

Manga Recommendation #12 - Kuroneko Kareshi no Asobikata

Title: Kuroneko Kareshi no Asobikata
Genre: Yaoi, Smut

Basic plot:
Shingo is a werecat, he lives a carefree life doing whatever he wants and whoever he wants. Until one day he meets Kakami, a gorgeous famous actor, takes a liking to Shingo...if you know what I mean ;D

My Thoughts:
This is an ongoing story and I like where it's going!~
The art is wonderful and I like how it's not JUST about sex, even though it is smut, the idea that Shingo has trust issues and Kakami can help him overcome those issues...I like it!

Usually I don't like anything...animal related but I'm not sure what it is, but I really enjoyed the fact that they're both cat/humans...I think I may read more from Aya Sakyo!!

I hate my school.

I study A-Level French, as you know when studying a language there are 4 areas that are assessed: Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking.
Today I had my speaking exam.

I cannot begin to describe how crap my school is.
Firstly, we are all emailed our exam timetables, usually there are some alterations for the written exams but never for the speaking exams. The speaking exams are set in stone.
Or so I thought.

The timetable said my French speaking  exam was on Thursday 18th at 11.00 am. However, during class we have to sign a piece of paper saying that we've received our time and date, the time had changed, so I asked my teacher if this date was the official date, or if my timetable date was correct. She told me that whatever I signed for was the correct date. So, my exam moved from 11.00 am to 9am.

On Sunday evening I receive an email from my French teacher who wished us all (my class) good luck for the exam and she will see us on Wednesday when all the exams are over.
I thought "HOLD UP GURL, mine is on Thursday....??"
So I email the head of French to confirm that my exam WILL be on Thursday 18th at 9am.
No reply.

All I can say is THANK THE LOOOORDD that I saw the head of French Monday morning as I queued for my Spanish class. I asked her about it, she said she didn't receive my email but informed me that my exams was not on Thursday but "Tomorrow at 9am"

I thought "TOMORROW?!?! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?!"
Although I had done preparation over the break, I was in no position to do the exam in under 24 hours time. Especially since I thought I had 2 more days to do be completely ready.
So I spent the ENTIRE EVENING after school locked in my room speaking French to my laptop and recording questions that I had to respond to.

Fortunately, my intense French revision paid off and the exam went well.
But I was so pissed off at my school. You don't change the date of someone's exam AND NOT INFORM THEM.
I am so thankful my teacher emailed the class and put doubt in my mind. Without that I wouldn't have asked the head of French and I would have missed my speaking exam and got a U (fail).

My school sucks.

I couldn't help myself...HIDOKU SHINAIDE HAS BEEN UPDATED FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MILLIONS OF YEARS.
Let's do this!!!

Title: Hidoku Shinaide
Genre: Yaoi, School life, totally sexy

Basic Plot:
Ohhhhh what to say! There are a few stories in this
Nemugasa has good grades...but they've been dropping since he started his second year. He needs to improve his grades to keep his scholarship, he has to get the top mark on his next test or he would have to leave the school.
While studying, Nemugasa over hears Maya talking with his friends, Maya also needs to pass this exam or he'll be kept behind. He isn't worried though, he said he'd just make a cheat sheet....this gives Nemunemu an idea..!
Unfortunately for him, Maya saw him. He offers his silence, for something in return..... *wink*

My Thoughts:
OH SWEET JESUS ON A POGO-STICK, THIS MANGA. THIS MAANGAAA....!!!!
