So...

Today I had a day off from work (YAAAAAY -> So evident that work gets on my nerves of late, isn't it?). Ran a lot of errands including:

- Going to the hairdresser to get my hair trimmed.
- Watching BBC Entertainment's Bargain Hunt, Cash in the Attic and Antiques Roadshow (man I've become addict to these programs, partly because of my Victorian addiction).
- Went around shops in the afternoon and bought quite a few things (including a new pair of glasses which I hope mom will approve of XD, will get that on Thursday)
- FMA Vol. 20 and 21 haven't arrived yet, darn it. Sent an email to the owner so that hopefully I have a reply on those.
- What else... I *think* I finished buying my Christmas presents already, now the time to wrap the stuff and all will begin :D
- Christmas is in a month's time OMG!
- Birthday is in a week OMG!
- Mmm... hopefully the FMA stuff I bought from ebay this week will be coming soon :D Plus, I think I'm getting that Roy Play-Arts figure after my birthday... *grins*

PS. What the hell is wrong with the formatting of LJ? o.O
PPS. My hand's getting better at least :)

OH
MY 
GOD

AND THE ROYAI IS SOOOOOOOOOOOO CANOOOOOOOOOOOOOON.

I NEED A  TRANSLATION LIKE... NOW.

HECK YES ISHVAL!

(Should have been a longer ep, maybe spreading 2-3 episodes, but I'm seriously waiting for the subs to see what they actually managed to keep in and keep out of the dialogues...) 

And... finally Bones decided to have the decency of doing these:



ABOUT TIME.

I need a couple of icons from this ep.

Isn't it beautiful? *__*
Thank you Gangan online :D

As much as I liked the ep (and the live-chatting with Kale), I still need to rewatch the RAW ;)  And I bring screenshots from usual source:

http://randomc.animeblogger.net/2009/09/06...brotherhood-22/

Particularly loved:

- Winry's VA
- The Ishval flashback (including the Rockbells and the Amestrian blue eyes)
- The EdWin scene at the end.

Plus, pacing was awesome today, and it seems like it's going to be like that next week too.

And...

And...

Approximately 5 days (maybe less) till Chapter 99!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And... Shonen GanGan has a Roy-tachi poster!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *spazzes*

And... did you see the Ed GanGan cover? Damn doesn't he look older XD

Just a quick reminder that there will be no new FMA episode tomorrow because of the World Atheletics Championships.

Ep. 21 will be on Sunday 30th ;)

Mmmh... not much to say, but I overall liked the ep...

What's bugging me is that the hospital scene is next week and... next week we don't have an ep! Darn just darn... ¬¬

And I'm up to Vol. 11 with the FMA re-reading :)

Thanks to Kasumisty on the FMA forums and the hagaren bbs forums!

Roy and Riza are there! YAY!

Can't wait till the whole chapter is out, hopefully by today! 

Havoc, brother-sister teasing and... saying goodbye to mom!

Might ask a friend of mine to give me a translation of that :) 

PS. Just a few more hours for episode 19 yes yes yes yes!

I am dying of the awesomeness...

I need the RAW and the subs... and next week and new chapter and...

Ok, I shall stop fangirling now.

Aftermath of some bed cuddling, conversations, mornings... and the shower strikes again!

They left me Sleeping Handsome Prince Roy with stubble <3

One thing: Maria Ross incident and Roy vs. Lust is coming up folks!

Hope they don't mess it up...

Will probably write a more decent post when the RAW and the SUBS are out ;) (Guess I'll update this one...)

This is awesome.  I want this as a giant poster to drool upon in my room.

And then... there's this... video... MADE OF NOTHING BUT PURE AWESOMENESS INCARNATE!

Thanks for Kirara on the FMA forums for posting these, just made my day a little more awesome.

PS. I'm so in love with him

</lj-embed>New OP

</lj-embed>New ED

I'm dying of the awesome, particularly due to ROY-TACHI and LUST VS ROY foreshadowing in the OP *____* Animation is awesome <3

Thanks to the people on the fm_alchemist  community who posted the links <3 Much love <3

With a cold, but still, I'm back :D 

And hopefully decent LJ posting will resume tomorrow :D

PS. F-list, I missed ya all <3

PPS. Kale... I'm going to write it here too. Shows how ironic (and with a sense of humour) life is...
Can it be possible that two friends on the opposite side of the planet are missing each other for a week since they are away from their computers, end up being sick at home with the same symptoms? It happened to me and auron_kale  who were missing each other like whoa (thank heavens for emails >D).  Now we're back to normal, sort of... (not physically since we're still both sick, probably him worse off than I am...) and writing like crazy again <3 Had missed this so much.

Speaking of writing, hopefully I'll post new parts of our work next week :) 

Also, managed to catch up with new FMA Chapter 97 (I'm missing a post on it because I haven't read a decent scanlation yet...), FMA Episode 14, an episode of Hetalia, 3 episodes of Pandora Hearts and its first OST (which is amazing). 

I'm happy I'm back, was missing my online life like crazy :) 

Huggles to all, it's good to be back.

The rest of a dinner, bushes and a shower.

That was fast but I still can't manage to panic (even though the rushed through my chess scene...) I'm still with the suspiscion that this has been rushed because it had already been animated.  Plus, yesterday I read through Volumes 6 and 7 again, so... maybe that's why I *really* felt the rush this time round...

Ah well... next week we'llhave the closing down of the Devil's Nest incident (together with the complete departure from the first anime... bye bye dear) and... the start of the new stuff coming up.  In fact, this is what will be coming up in Ep. 15 (12th July!):

http://uk.video.yahoo.com/watch/5391083/14202115

LING IS VOICED BY MAMORU! *gasps*

(And just read today - I had forgotten - that GanGan will be out on the 10th this month... meaning, that I'll be out when I'm away in London most probably... darn... ah well... I'll have loads to see and catch up the weekend I'll be back <3)

Plus, there's a hint of the new OP!

Brother and sister bickering, a life-long promise... and a pair of rings.
