All Good Things Come To An End

*sigh*....You know that feeling you get when you just finished a good book/show and you're happy you finished it but you're sad it's over? Yeah, well I just got that feeling after finishing The Get Backers tonight. It's the second time I've watched the anime adaptation in it's entirety and I still got the same feeling after finishing it. It's a nice mixture of feelings. I'm debating just leaving the evening off on that awesome note and going to bed, but I also want to keep watching anime. I think I might actually go to bed though. You see, the downside to an anime like The Get Backers is that it's only an adaptation. They only followed the manga up to a certain point and then went off on their own, like what they did in the original Fullmetal Alchemist anime. I've been on the hunt for a long time now for the manga online, but so far I've had little luck in finding some. The manga that I did find only covers the story up to a certain point. I'll have to keep looking this week and see if I can find anything. It's really an interesting story.

I'm a little on edge about this week. I have an in-class spanish composition tomorrow, a spanish presentation on Friday and a Poetry essay due on Friday. Our group hasn't gotten together yet for the presentation (I'm going to suggest we get together tomorrow night and Thursday night as well to work on it. I also feel that I'm the only one who really knows what he's doing out of the three of us as well. Should be interesting). The poetry paper, which I haven't started yet, shouldn't be too bad. I got a good grade on the last paper, and I'm decent at writing essays, so in actuality I'm not too worried. Just want to get it over with though, if you know what I mean.

I have recently started playing Pokemon Heart Gold, and I'm having a lot of fun with it. My friend Zach got Soul Silver here at Susquehanna, so we've been having some Pokemon sessions here in the dorm. This new Pokewalker gadget is kind of interesting too. Obviously it's an attempt to get video game infested children out and about and walking, but even still it's pretty cool. You can gain EXP for your Pokemon just by walking around with that thing in your pocket. However your Pokemon can only gain one level per visit to the Pokewalker, which I was upset about at first but then I realized that would be pretty cheap if it was able to do so. Hopefully I'll be able to at least semi-commit to this game, cause it's totally worth it.

Andrew still hasn't come back to school. Dunno what to think about that haha. My friend Jake told me he doesn't have class on Tuesdays, so I thought I thought, "Hey, it's cool, no worries". However he still hasn't returned, and it's already very early Wednesday morning. Oh well, guess he knows what he's doing. I had to forge his name on our sign-out sheet for Easter Break. Guess he forgot to do so. I don't think he realized we had a sheet to fill out. He's not around much so I suppose I should have told him about that earlier. All in all though, he's been an awesome roommate. Very nice guy.

Well, I guess it's about time to hit the hay. I might actually read for a bit before bed, since I've decided not to watch anymore anime (I'm leaving it off on a good note XD). Time to rape a Spanish composition in the morning.

Til' Then...
