I’ll be missing you. This song came on when I was in the shower. I’ve been given a insight into the words of this song. I’ve always loved this song. I listened to it when I was in the first grade, listening to it as it often came on the bus driver’s radio in the school, going to or coming from summer school. I finally know what this song means.

I’m going to talk just a little or a lot about The Hidden City by Michelle West today. If you’ve browsed my blog before, you might have noticed me talking about the Cast (officially known as the Chronicles of Elantra) series by Michelle Sagara. They’re the same person. Michelle Sagara West is also her. She goes by different names for her different stories, and probably also the different styles of writing she has for each. Not that I can tell what the difference in her styles are any more. When I first read the Cast series, it irritated me so much I often had to put the books down. But then I got used to it and it’s just a natural part of her stories.

Now, I must say, I am so bitter with the events that lead up to the conclusion of this book. It’s the first book as well as the one that Michelle West herself recommends for the introduction into this world that she has placed this story in. For readers of her other series, I think both of them (check her site yourself for more info), they already know what will partially happen to Jewel in her adult years. In this first book in the House Wars series, she’s 10 years old. Jewel never speaks or acts like a 10-year-old throughout the whole book, no matter how much Michelle West keeps on insisting that she is. Even the depth of her sentences astound me, and I will never expect a child to speak so well, even if she is always surrounded by adults. I may be wrong, but until you read the novel yourself, please don’t think that you can convince me otherwise of children who are known to speak eloquently and fluently in an adult’s version of English, since I firmly believe they usually don’t. In any case, because Michelle West insists that Jewel is 10 years old, I’m even more bitter at what happens at the end. I am curious about how Michelle West will resolve this story, and I hope that after what she’s put the characters through I will be able to feel at peace with it.

In another way, I see why Michelle West might want us to read this series first. It’s probably because of Rath. I liked him a lot. Until the end, when he proved himself to be the biggest fool in the world. How the hell could he let himself do that? Yes, I get what the author’s trying to say, but still. Arrgh. I still like Rath. I just hate him for his decisions, and even the fact that he’s suffering the consequences of his actions doesn’t mollify me.

I’m probably going to read her Sundered series next. I feel like I’ve read the first book before.

Play Hotel 626! It’s an online horror game that actually has good graphics, if not the most original plots and stuff. I mean, it’s a short online game! What can you expect in terms of story when there basically is none. What you’re just trying to do is survive, obviously. =P

Anyways, you can only play from 6PM-6AM. But that’s not a big deal. Just change your time zone if you’re playing it during the day! Play Hotel 626! It’s kind of fun. Man, I hate lullabies and kids in horror.

Umm… My internet keeps getting blocked or something. My school hates me. ‘_’ Damn school. Anyways, while I was bored, I decided to scan some more covers. I think there’s five? Mmm… Added to the Manga page, I’ll list the titles below so that you know which ones were added.

Manga Additions:
1.Fuyu no Toika by Kamijou Erina
Umm… this mangaka’s art is ugly. And her stories also look stupid.

2. Heart no Hikigane by Ichikawa Chihiro
It’s okay, I guess.

3. Senobishite Kiss wo Shite by Mizutani Ai
What a cute title. It means something like, “Standing on tiptoes to kiss.” *shrugs*

4. Sono Kuchibiru ni Ai wa Aru no ka by Tomioka Megumi
What a long ass title.

5. Tadashi Renai no Susume by Ichidou Haruka
All of her characters look like children. Nasty. I honestly don’t know why people like kiddies.

6. Toriko by Shiina Chika
Psycho chick and asshole lover who screws her over and messes with her head. Who would want to read this? If you do, I lose a million respect points for you. Utter Fail.

Yeah. I’m tired.

Finally! I have something to post about kure!
Wahahahahahahahaha!!! Wahahahahahahaha!!

me: kure :D
kurenai: kuinni.
me: ahh, lady of the morning
me: she sharpens her tongue on me
me: and calls out in a wintry voice
me: and freezes me in my shoes
me: i think i might wet myself from fear
kurenai: Vat are you accusing me of? Insolence!
kurenai: What rot!
me: :P

Yes~ It’s very stupid. But I swear. Whenever she gets up, or when she replies to me, she uses this cold tone of voice. As they will say, tsumetai! *shivers*
