Demoted to back-up, beeyatch!!
I started watching Koutetsu Sangokushi, and it took me about 2 episodes and the assistance of Wikipedia to find out that its characters are based off of the historical novel, Romance of the Three Kingdoms. The anime is pretty interesting, which was a surprise to me since I wasn't really expecting anything. The fact that it reminds me of Dynasty Warriors is also a plus (which reminds me, I need to catch up on those Sengoku Basara episodes...) I'll update more about it after I finish the series though.
All I really wanted to say was that I despise technology. And you ask, why would I, a new media student who is currently studying web development, ever hate the very thing that comprises not only my future career but also my current internship, especially since I spend most of my waking hours on a computer? Well, let me tell you. I just spent $70 because online shopping is so fucking easy that it's ridiculous. At least with the books I bought I saved some money, especially the last group of volumes; I saved about $25, but still. I need to save money and the easiness that comes with today's technology just makes it that much harder. I hate you, online shopping. I really do.
But I suppose something good came out of it. I do really need to get back into reading books. I haven't fully enjoyed a book since middle school, and I'm already supposed to be a senior in college (erm, yeah, according to the credits I currently have, that's not happening). My use of vocabulary and my way of speech is really shitty compared to what it should be like as a university student. I'm going to try and read better material, sans the 2/3 of the previously mentioned order I placed consisting of books that are meant to entertain rather than heighten my intellect :P
