Music. Food. Family. Friends. And honorable mention to my busy academic and non-academic schedules and assignments. Really, even though they all could be annoying at times, they make me into who I am today.

Today I kind of wanted to write something again, after a long absence. Tomorrow is exam. What, reliving stress, you say? Probably. :P

Nothing much up with my life but the usual routine. Works and assignments are all around the air, but I'm fighting to give some time to go to MangaHelpers, to listen and hunt music, to watch anime, to read manga I've been following, to play, and last but not least to sleep. Sometimes the balance is off, but such is life.

This weekend, November 3rd-4th 2012, Lee Seung Gi -- one of my favorite Korean actors -- came for a fan meeting in Indonesia. I couldn't express how much I wish I could go but the ticket was rather expensive and exam was coming. I must be satisfied with photos and news only. It seemed so cool. Seung Gi is known as a warm, open, and friendly celebrity, loving his fans a lot. Come again to Indonesia, Seung Gi-oppa. Or I'll visit Korea and see you one day. <3

My love with anime is blossoming as usual. I have many series to check, but at this moment decided to stick with those currently airing ones only. Now downloading and watching Kara no Kyoukai when I can, though. It seems to be quite an interesting series, although the first episode was rather... heavy.

I'll try to remember to write some reviews of anime and drama I watched recently, like I did with Mirai Nikki and King2Hearts previously. It was rather fun.

For now, off I go to gather my good luck for tomorrow's exam. Until then! o/

Well, yeah. Hello, world. Exam is over doesn't necessarily mean thinking is over. o/

Lots to come in this week and next week. First and foremost is about my thesis. So after entering a stagnant phase for almost a year, we finally got things rolling up again. As much as we talked about speeding things up, after consulting with our teacher, we were asked to finish four chapters by next week. Very sweet. I had done one chapter so three more to go for the rest of the week. Problem is, this Sunday there is also an event to celebrate World Heart Day by my organization. And we have quite some problems so gonna run around and round like crazy these days.

Obviously, not to mention that I'm trying to use up the rest of my time with anime as much as possible, and sleeping.

I managed to survive somehow, so let's hope for the best in upcoming days. <3

Maybe I need to go on a motivation camp or military training or whatever to keep my spirit and concentration high. One single touch of a distant memory and I get so many distractions in return. What the heck is wrong with me? -___-

Anyway, speaking about distractions...

In the last two days I allowed myself to switch back to J-drama mode for a while; previously I had taken an oath to keep walking in this otaku path only. It began when my friend reminded me that there was a special episode before the Liar Game Reborn, which was about the match of the best devilish players in my opinion: Fukunaga and Yokoya. Watching it brought back my love for the series. Unfortunately the translation for Reborn is not yet out; hopefully soon. But well, after watching the special episode of Liar Game I was somehow reminded of Detective Conan, thus spending the last three days to catch up with all its live action adaptations. I'm not disappointed at all; been a while since I plunged myself into such detective, crime, mystery series.

Aside from that I also have lots of anime series to take care of. Currently watching Fate/stay night and Full Metal Panic! for the sake of old times, oh my... Fate/stay night didn't rise as high as I hoped it would be; after all it was the sequel to the amazing Fate/Zero. Full Metal Panic! is a nice combination of comedy (mainly), action, and romance. A nice ride with both series.

And yet tonight I added more to my drama and anime list. Isn't it just amazing, these distractions?

Not to mention this sweet song from Detective Conan's live action series:
