Stop wanting to die. It's not healthy you'll live shorter.

I had to stay for last period study hall today because I take a bus now and my inability to get home during Senior release in academics would be the first day today. Low and behold the anime kid I like is in the class. I've 'known' him since school started, but I never had the nerve to talk to him. In a fit of courage I walked over and sat next to the desk he was in and introduced myself (said hello). Unsurprisingly, we replied with a friendly greeting as well and I then asked what he was doing.

I eyed what he doing before but I couldn't tell what series he was drawing. He showed me up close and I still had no idea, oh well. I asked about his reputation of knowing Japanese very well (self taught since 5th grade he says) and I slowly revealed where I was getting at and he seemed to be enjoying it. We talked about the kanji and the kana and etc. and it was really cool. He asked if I knew any phrases and I do know quite a bit. I guess it was surprising for him since he's been around me for 4 years and never knew I had this interest, but he's totally cool and I've liked him from just his personality.

Near the end of the period I mentioned I saw him wearing an 'L' shirt from Death Note one day and I said I've watched the whole series and he looked pretty pleased by that (I'm pretty sure out of our whole class of 2011 we're the only two that actually watch anime), but since time was almost up we couldn't go anywhere with it.

Also this means I'll be able to see him last period every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday now.

I saw Bill Cosby in person yesterday. He's funny.

Awesome.

Umineko no Naku Koro ni is a visual novel, but whatever this thread should be relevant enough for it since there's a manga and anime adaption of it too.

Man it's really cool. After being recommended it by Leafsnail, or should I say curious by my own accord I downloaded the free first episode and have been "playing" it since Friday night and let me tell you, this game is long. Long and time consuming all right, but it's really cool and if you like intricate murder mysteries and ham hands then you'll like this. Definitely worth checking out. I seriously don't know when episode one is going to end after playing over two days worth of it and there's still seven more episodes! That's absolutely insane, but we'll see what happens when I get there.
