grape_soda: (Haruhi)
Okay, so, fandom rant, alright? I know there are more important things going on right now, but seriously...
So, Peach Girl made me laugh out loud. It was adorable and fun and crazy and I loved it. I read it back in high school (it was actually my first shoujo manga... Gravitation totally doesn't count XD).So I found Peach Girl: A Change of Heart (the second series) at the library and checked out the first three volumes. And... gah. While the original series was lighthearted and amusing, ACoH is just.... ugh. It's just an endless repetitive cycle of attempted rape and relationship problems. Cycle: Momo gets mad at Kiley for something stupid and gets jealous and decides he doesn't love her. Thinks about Toshi for like ten minutes. Momo almost gets raped and Kiley saves her. She forgives him and then they're happy and totally in love for like ten minutes. Then this cycle repeats. Over and over and over. And let's not forget Sae's attempts to sabotage Momo's happiness every five minutes. Wow. NO relationship should be as dramatic and as much trouble as Momo and Kiley's. Honestly she'd probably be happier on her own because she second guesses and overanalyzes everything and causes drama that's not really there when she has a boyfriend.I am so tired of this series /: it's the only manga I've ever read and then wanted to drop altogether. Maybe since I'm used to things like Ouran I'm spoiled and just assume that the heroine is supposed to be sane and there's supposed to be humor. But oh well.

Anyway, on to other matters. On the subject of chapter 81 of Ouran: HOLY SHIT MOE TIME. TamaHaru FTW. Tamaki and Haruhi are super cute when they're actually in a relationship ^^ That chapter kinda completed my life a little bit. Love. Tamaki's still such a damn idiot, though. When he said he didn't love her at first I wanted to kill him. If anyone knows where I can read or download the next chapter when it comes out (since Ouran is suddenly like an illegal drug for scanlation sites), I'd love if you'd tell me! I found a site that still hosts scanlations of the Ouran manga

In other news, financial issues are getting a little better. We paid our house payment and so I'm not so worried anymore. Not going to be able to afford internet any time soon, but I'm surprised to find I don't miss it much anymore. I got online today and found I didn't really have much I wanted to do. I miss everybody, but I guess it's not the hugest deal in the world. Next time I get online I'll probably have a new chapter of Duet to post.

On Saturday we threw my sister a surprise party. It was fun as hell and she was SO surprised. It was super awesome.We played Sims and Clue and Silent Hill: Homecoming (which is extremely scary, by the way. Not as good as Silent Hill 2, but still scary). There also turned out to be enough money in the change jar for us to be able to just barely afford to go to the fair. I gave my parents a lecture about how we should be using that money to pay bills and they were just like "Geez, just go and have fun." I swear, I'm turning into an old woman. But we're going to the fair tomorrow with Kiona, Natalie, and Sammy. It should be fun.

Everything is going alright despite the financial situation, and Brittany and I have been playing a lot of Sims to pass the time. School starts next week and I'm going to be bored sitting around the house. I want to look for a second job but when the cleaning job is in full swing I already work about seven hours a day cleaning and I don't need MORE work. I guess I just have to hope business picks up soon. Maybe there'll be a lot of cleaning around Christmas. I only have $4 left so I hope it happens sooner than later XD

Well, I guess I should go. I hope to talk to you guys soon!
My cell is behind the cut ) if anyone needs to get a hold of me, since I won't be available online much for a while yet <3
