If you’ve read my journal, by now you should all be familiar with my incredibly obsessive personality, as well as my tendency to get overly emotional when certain things strike a chord with me (gets teary-eyed during the final, mind-blowingly awesome race in “Speed Racer”, remember? ). Usually those two facets of my personality [...]

Sex and Violence in the Media
Another political one, though not as controversial as the others. Still, I think it deserves talking about, so here it is.
I won’t name names, but a lot of politicians out there are up in arms about the supposed “evils” of sex and violence in the media. Well, I know where [...]

I’m not sure about you all, but I find stable characters boring. You know, the ones that basically stay the same throughout the entire story? No fun at all. Even the most interesting or funny character losses appeal if they never grow! And I’m not just talking physically. It’s more important that they grow mentally. [...]
Now, normally I don’t go around bashing people. Heck, I never go around bashing people. Even here with this, I’d like to state before hand that I’m sure this man has plenty of admirable qualities.

Well, here’s part two of my insomnia rant! In the first part I went over the most recognized insomnia, in which someone simply has trouble falling asleep. This one is about the second type as I see it, which basically involves having trouble shutting down for the night. Well, here it goes!
This type of insomnia [...]

Well, I’ve now finished the first series of Sailor Moon. That’s nearly 50 episodes, and I’m still honestly not quite sure what I think about it. Still, I’ll try my best to write down my impressions here. Be warned, there may be spoilers!
I’m happy to say, the series did pick up another serious story arc [...]
Anybody who’s seen my room (or who have even talked with me for any length of time) knows that I have a certain weakness for toys. Namely, I love them. Oh, not just any toys of course. I’m actually very picky about which toys I want. Still though, the fact is that I’ve gathered quite [...]
We’ve all grown up “knowing” that boys and girls like different things. Girls like dolls, ponies, and princesses. Boys like action figures, cars, and sports. Well that’s just crap. I don’t believe there’s any real distinction between boys and girls, other than the physical and the way they were raised. I was raised on Godzilla, [...]
