Po Pi Po (Again)

Mood:MSN Onion Emoticons


Sung by the Miku Vocaloid. Still a fun song. She's singing about vegetable juice. Onion Icon I'm feeling much better today! MSN Onion IconI also had a good night's sleep. MSN Onion IconThe only problem was, I slept in a lot later than I would have liked. But, I think I seriously needed it. I added a Cbox so people can comment on things, say hello, chat, etc. It's under the Current Manga section. MSN Onion Emoticons I'll see how it is after about a week, and if I don't like it, I'll just delete it. MSN Onion Icons


Earlier, there was something going on next door. There was our cable company's truck and the city's truck parked along our side of the road. If you remember, a few weeks ago we had our cable company's workers working on some pipes there. They left wires sticking out of the ground for a while. MSN Onion Emoticon SetEventually, they covered them up. When my mom asked about the wires before, they had no idea about the project or job. Onion Emoticon SetToday, they seemed to be arguing with the guy from the city truck. Maybe they really weren't supposed to work there or it violates some sort of code. Onion Emoticon SetThen, another cable truck came by. After just a few minutes, they all left. It was all very amusing to watch, at least to me. Onion Icons


I caught up on a few things, since I obviously wasn't going to get everything done today.MSN Onion IconsOne of the things I caught up on was V. I missed last week's. So much happens in one episode, if you miss one you're far behind on everything. Onion Emoticon SetSo, luckily, they had it online. 


Fave deviantART: Tastes Like Fur Wild Within Sweet Need This Is War Canada's Strawberry Avalanche Butterfly 13 Seimei Ketsuno APH- Return to Britain Trying out a 4Koma I didn't make any of these! MSN Onion EmoticonsFirst, reminds me WAY too much of Tasha. She looks very similar when she grooms. Onion IconThe second, I just love the emotion the pic makes. Very beautiful.Onion IconsThird, was too cute of a cat pic to say no. MSN Onion IconsFourth, was an amazing drawing of Spain and England from Hetalia going head to head. Fifth, just seems like a pretty random drawing of Canada from Hetalia. But, was funny and pretty well done. Sixth, is an upclose pic of a butterfly's body. Oddly, looks amazing. I find their bodies are usually not as pretty as their wings, but from this point of view, it seems different. Seventh, is a drawing of Seimei from Gintama. The only part I found a bit odd was how big the bowl is in his hand. It looks like it should be one of those little sipping sake cups, but it's way too big. MSN Onion IconsThe rest is great! Seimei's a very interesting character, so it's nice to see someone draw him. Eighth, ok, this was just too amazing! :wow: It's a painting based on the Hetalia characters England and America. It's England sailing away from America after the American Revolution. Even if you don't like anime, you have to check it out because it's really something. The last one is a comic done by an amazing deviant named Mikeinel. This doesn't show off his best work, but it's still a pretty funny one. Onion IconYes, it's in Tagalog, but he translates it in the artist's comments. His work is very interesting. I think what drew me first to him wasn't on deviantART but on Youtube for his animation Draw With Me. It was amazingly done, creative, and original. Even the music's original. It's a sad story about a girl and a boy separated by an unbreakable glass wall. He apparently does have it on DA here's the link to it: Draw With Me If you haven't seen it, go check it out! 


Here's a couple of links to some videos I found interesting on Yomiuri. (Since I can't embed them.) Sakura A video showing the Sakura trees in bloom. Kind of cool to see. Otter This one was in their animal section, about otters. It's pretty cute.

Aha! (All We Want) (Again)

Mood:MSN Onion Icon


By Love Psychedelico. Still an awesome song about love and freedom! Makes you feel good too. MSN Onion IconsGot up a bit late since my muscles were screaming at me for gardening the other day. MSN Onion Emoticons(Also, for another reason, that seemed to make it worse.) I mostly caught up on things that I usually save for the weekend. 


I looked for online Japanese TV. I wanted something where I could actually pause it and read the text. (Since it goes by so quick on TV Japan, I barely have time to read the first few characters.) Also, it gives me another way to hear what someone said. It's easier that you get to rewind it too. MSN Onion Emoticons


The first one I found was Channel J, which was good, but doesn't give you much. Also, it mostly just had the news. I want a mixture of everything. MSN Onion EmoticonSo, that's a good one for staying a bit informed on what's going on over there, but not something I'd frequent too often. Shrug


Next is FNN News. A much more in depth news site. Might use it more than Channel J. Plus, I think they have more videos. Hmm. Evil plotting in progress.


Third one is Sony Music. This is the official Sony Music site. It has music videos, and music news. It will be a great way to learn more about their music artists, and be exposed to more music in general. Nod


The last one is Yomiuri Online. This site's amazing! La la la la Tons of shows too! Shows on the news, animals, entertainment, 'popstyle', disasters, and the baseball team the Giants. 


They have an extra section called TV G+. This has a lot more shows, and I think I saw that they're going to add more soon. OMG One's actually an interesting news show called News Navigator. They have a few culture shows. One's called Komachi, which literally means town beauty. (It can also mean little town. Sounds better to me. XD) Mostly it's about them visiting towns. Similar, I guess to ふるさと一番! or Furusato Ichiban! on TV Japan. (They called it Live From Your Hometown in English. I like watching it because you get to learn more about the people of Japan. Handshake


Next, they have a show called Do! Culture. It's very interesting. About cultural and popular things. Like, one of the episode's about learning how to cook Italian food, since it's becoming so popular. Also, learning traditional instruments, martial arts and more. Very cool to me! Meow :3


Another is called 青森探偵 or Aomori Tantei. Which is Aomori Dectective or investigator. About a person who 'investigates' various towns in the Aomori prefecture. Showing what their famous for, like special foods, attractions and such. Kind of cool too. Another one is about fitness and health. All of these shows sound really awesome to me! LoveWe're thinking of dropping TV Japan, so I'm glad I might have found a good online TV site. 


Not only that, but Yomiuri has an amazing amount of other stuff on their site. Wow! I could probably spend hours on it. Mwahahahahahahaha!They have in depth weather forecasts for lots of cities, traffic, and maps. In their gourmet section, they have recipes, tips, lists of good wines and non alcoholic drinks, also a lot of info on Japanese foods. Sushi They have a picture section, with pictures from the news, sports, various towns, seasonal pics, and even tips on how to take good pictures. Camera They also have a section on the environment. Earth


Another one is on Tech news, new products and a Q&A part in it. Personal Computer There's a travel section, with famous places and views, international food, events, and helpful info. Relax There's a book section, where you can read reviews, news, and interviews of authors. Reading Another is Home and Garden with news, discussion, home environment, home living tips and skills, world homes, town homes, even picking out gravestones. Rose I read somewhere in this section that someone grew 20,000 tulips in their garden, all because of a competition between neighbors. OMG They have a magazine section, where you can read snippets of them. 


An offshoot site is Yorimo with more stuff. Another one is called yomiDr. It has medical news, an encyclopedia of medical treatment or care, info on hospitals, a medical care discussion 'room', senior living, and more health topics.Strong! On the actual Yomiuri site they also have a database full of more info. Stuff on historic events, photos, and newspapers. I think this site has become a definite fave!Love
