Kuroki Tomoko looks normal in this picture
(she is actually crazy)

I recently finished watching an anime about a girl being a loner. Although she went to school and had a regular family she was still lonely. A socially awkward numb-skull that took the cake of absurdity and stupidity. When I watched the first few episodes I couldn't hold back my laughter. Even though the anime made her character ridiculous and novel I still felt a connection with her. She was shy, lonely, and bitter (in a comedic way) towards people she didn't know. And she only knew four people in the show. Her father, mother, brother, and one friend. It reminded me of myself so much that in certain scenes of her being alone and mournful I looked upon her with sorrow (yes, I looked upon a screen of pixels with feeling). I too, have experienced those days of complete solitude and wishful thinking. Sympathizing with this animated girl named Kuroki, I couldn't help but love the show. This anime was so unique to others of its archetype. I wont spoil the ending for you because I know you are just dying to watch it now! Yeah right. The show doesn't take the happy route and solve her 'problems' by some cool kid becoming her friend or by getting help from some try-hard teacher that loves his students way too much. This was a story about a girl who was socially awkward and shy. Some people are never 'cured' from the 'illness of solitude.' Some people live with it for their whole lives.

Solituders for life!.... Anyways....

The month is finally coming to a close. October, we are running into your blissful embrace that surrounds us with the falling of the leaves and the billion shades of orange and yellow...... Oh wait, I forgot.

I LIVE IN HAWAII!

So much for that romantic take on the season of Autumn. It is just going to be the same old green, brown, and blue. Another year shall pass without knowing the joys of frolicking in the ocean of amber and crimson that I long for.

You know what? I'll just say it! Even though most of my Dear Readers could care less about it. I am eagerly anticipating the launch of the next generation of video gaming consoles. In particular the Playstation 4(PS4). It has been almost 8 years since the launch of the Playstation 3(PS3) and every gamer around the world shouted out in joy on February 20, 2013 when they finally announced the next generation of gaming. This will be the first console release that I will be actively participating in. I am very excited. I can't wait for November. Unless something big happens between now and the appointed time. Ah well, whatever happens happens. That is my heart Dear Readers, you may now resume your prayers for my wretched soul.

Closing Thought ~

If you haven't listened to it yet Dear Readers I implore you to listen to the music that I have posted this week (and the weeks to come!). It is the main theme for the masterful movie: Howl's Moving Castle. I just found this track recently and took the time to listen to it. Let's just say I love it with every fiber in my being.
