Flawlessly Imperfect

Wprawdzie już wszyscy potencjalnie zainteresowani wiedzą, ale i tak o tym napiszę.

Uniwersytet im. Mikołaja Kopernika w Toruniu przyjął mnie na japonistykę na pozycji 8-mej z punktacją 86,5!

(I Yoku też się tam dostała :D)

Moje inne obecne opcje to kulturoznawstwo dalekowschodnie na Jagiellońskim i koreanistyka na Warszawskim, a plany na następne kilka dni obejmują, co następuje.

> Wyślę dzisiaj oświadczenie o podtrzymaniu chęci studiowania na UAM (bo jakbym mogła, to jednak wolałabym mieć więcej znajomych na studiach i w mieście XD).
> Będę czatować w piątek na wyniki I tury rekrutacji na japonistykę na UW (bo to jednak wciąż mój priorytet).
> Jeśli z UW nie wypali, w sobotę lub poniedziałek (raczej poniedziałek, bo mają dłużej otwarte) zawożę papiery na UMK.
> Do końca lipca wciąż czatuję na UW i UAM (i w sumie UJot też).


W każdym razie mam już zapewnione miejsce na japonistyce! Może nie tej, której chciałam, ale niemniej japonistyce~ ^^
Z koreanistyki i kulturoznawstwa w takim razie pewnie zrezygnuję. Trochę mnie wprawdzie dobija, że wszystkie opcje poza Warszawą zakładają ponad 4-godzinną podróż pociągiem, ale mogło być gorzej. (Bo jednak nie chcę dać się skusić koreanistyce tylko, dlatego że jest blisko domu. Choć jestem pewna, że ten język i te studia też bym ostatecznie polubiła.)

For some time I was meaning to write a long entry - about my half-way point ball, a volley-ball competition, this autumn's series, but I'm not going to do it. XD Too lazy. Or maybe I am? XD

Instead have a meme~ Ganked from arushiraoi



Errrm. XD


Recently I got obsessed with Air Gear - started watching anime last Sunday and now I'm quickly catching up with manga~ I love this series - the characters are great, the plot gripping and the artwork really pretty. Unfortunately, its fandom seems to be a) unbelievably small and b) pretty much dead.
I don't understand it - it's fun, it's pretty, there are lots of subtexts. But, oh yeah, it's ecchi as well, and we can't just have women in our manga, can we? If they were all stupid naked chicks I'd somehow fathom it, but no, most of them are really likable characters with distinct personalities. So why?
I'd love to see some fanfics, fanarts, but with such a small and inactive fandom, it's not likely. (There are some fanworks, but in silly quantity) I even went as far as to actually check ff.net. _^_
Anyway, love the series and love its characters - especially Akito and Agito, Kazu and Spitfire (who's such a dork in manga wherein in anime he seemed to be a rather sedate person XD). And Rika, Benkei, Yoshitsune, Sano <3, Ikki and many many more.


Anime from the new season that I'm:
a) watching
- Gundam00 S2

- Toradora
- Nodame Cantabile Paris Chapter

And few words on the ball. Food was crappy (especially given the money we had paid), music - disco-polo, techno and other shit like that (only few nice songs), but I nevertheless had fun. ^^ (And eventually I worn another dress than I wrote I'd have on. And I borrowed shoes from my mom and only later I realized that in fact they were too small. I don't know how I could have not realized it earlier. XDD Of course, I just had to forget to take my ID and I had to call my dad and have him go fetch it and waste petrol. XD")


All is well on the Earth at school. ^^

And Mokon is getting closer and closer. I can't wait to meet with all of you <3 (And I'm going with my bother and his friend so I'll be relatively safe XD)

Also, be awed by my beautiful icon with Vino and Chane from Baccano! ;)

This Thursday I went on a class trip to Warsaw. I must say I didn’t expect much – not after the previous trip and not with one attraction dropping out and the price staying the same. I was rather pleasantly disappointed (though, it doesn’t change the fact that this whole thing costed way too much). The museum lesson turned out to be interesting – our guide was young, terribly gaudily dressed and talked in an interesting and attention catching way.
Then we went to Arkadia. And that was hard. XD I hate clothes-and-shoes-shopping, but I managed to walk about 3 hours with my classmates, not to die of boredom and not to bore them with my comments as well. XD The last half of hour we spent in empik and I finally bought 2nd part of George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire saga (A Clash of Kings), 7th Saiyuki volume and first volume of Duds Hunt - new manga from Hanami (already read it - quite interesting, although rather brutal also - it costed 24 PLN, but I'll be damned if it's not wonderfully published - the paper *__*). I spent way too much money on those all books and comics and came to conclusion that I really have to start buying used books and mangas. As much as it hurts me, I really plan on doing it, because my wallet won’t endure much more. ;_; There’s only this little detail that I treat term ‘perfect state’ strictly and literally. I love when my books and mangas are beautiful and look as never read – no folded covers, scratches or anything like that. I’ll have hard time getting used to re-sold items, I’m sure of it. But I’m afraid that’s a sad necessity.End of digression. XD

After shopping we went to Buffo to see Romeo and Juliet. The play itself was good, but about half of enjoyment that I could have had from watching it, was destroyed by the building conditions. There was no air conditioning (and the day was rather hot and stuffy). We also got places on the balcony, which means that we didn’t see about half of stage. I couldn’t focus on the play. Maybe I’m shallow or something, but I just can’t enjoy a play if there are bad conditions. The nice thing – Ola’s friend is a journalist, so she and I got to see actors and take several pictures with them.
The return to home was good also. We apparently somehow got drunk from eating jellies and we sang every song that came to our minds. I’ll comment it like that: when you go back home after nice but tiring day, you sure can come up with some interesting ideas….XD


Haha. It’s official now – I was asked and agreed and so I’m going to be a godmother of my cousin. One funny thing is that she’s not my niece or anything, but cousin and the other that I’m still pretty much of a child myself. XDD And I'm not really fond of children... Oh well, I suppose that my parents will take care of everything related with it for the next few years. XD

Currently I’m reading Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray in original. I’ve wanted to read some his book for some time, had rather high expectations and I must say that Wilde’s writng didn’t disappoint me, quite contrary.

As for M&A… I watched Black Lagoon and really liked it.
Oh, and several days ago I’ve noticed that I have nearly no whole series left on the disc, so now I’m downloading like crazy, because I don’t want to run out of my drug. XD Currently dl-ing: Lucky Star, Seirei no Moribito, Mononoke, Macross Frontier.
And today I’m going to have a Gundam 00 marathon with my brother. He promised so now I won’t let him take his word back. XD


EDIT from 18.05.08
While watching G00 I made a little observation that everyone else had probably made a looong time ago XD - Lockon cared for Sestuna as much as to punch him. I think that now we know why he wears gloves nearly all the time, this little detail gains quite a significance.
