Shining Wind

[snapdragon76]

I've totally gotten hooked on another series. It's called 'Kaze Hikaru'. It's kinda like 'Kenshin' for girls except it's focused more on the Shinsengumi. I've been reading it in Shojo Beat, actually. I mean, I pretty much like all of the series in there (except for 'Baby and Me,' which I never read). Now, I hadn't been truly focused on one series over another. I just basically read them, enjoy them and move on. I guess it's due to the latest issue. Why you wonder? I think it's because Sei is beginning to have feelings for Okita (in case you're curious, Sei's really a girl disguised as a boy to avenge her murdered family. Only Okita knows the truth). This has the potential for so much cuteness. So far it's just being serialized, but the first graphic novel is due in January. And you just know I'm gonna snatch it up...

I finished my application for Barnes and Noble. I go today to drop it off. I also plan on picking up more boxes. I filled three of them just by packing a few things in my closet. Today, I'm to pack some of my books. I need to get it done before the effects of Wilma come charging toward us.

Speaking of which, it may not hit us directly, but I think we'll definitely be feeling the effects of it. We've been very lucky this year in regards to hurricanes (unlike, say, last year). We have the plywood, but I doubt we'll be putting it up unless it drastically changes course. So I don't know if we'll have power or not. Our power lines can be a bit touchy.

Good luck with Barne's and Noble!

*laughs* I don't read Baby and Me, either. ^^;; Just doesn't interest me at all.

Eeeek! Okita and Sei! Nice!

One of my fellow coworkers subscribes to it, and I mooch it from her. ^_^ Speaking of which, I wonder if she's gotten the latest issue yet . . .

Heh, platonic soul mates are the best! ^^

Hee hee. I snagged a crap load of images from a fansite 'cause they're so cute!! *squeeee*

I have a serious sickness.

The latest issue has Sei on the cover with a yellow background. Actually, it's the one that spawned my current obsession with them...
And I plan on subscribing after this whole housing mess is cleared up.... and I get some money coming in.

Damn straight!!

So are Sei and Okita possibly going to get together? I think that'd be insanely cute. ^^

I share it, you know. ^^

*nod nod* I think the library might actually start to subscribe to Shoujo Beat here, which would be amazing if they did. ^^

[snapdragon76.livejournal.com]

Ohhh, so do I. I squeed mightlily at some of the images I came across, like this one (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v172/snapdragon76/Kaze%20Hikaru/14_sei_okita2.gif).

*squeees more*

Whoo!!! That's be awesome if they did!!

[zelamenomiko.livejournal.com]

*SQUEEEEE!!* Ooooh, soo CUUUUUTE!!!!!!

I'm keeping my fingers crossed. ^^

[snapdragon76.livejournal.com]

*giggles* Yeah, I had the same reaction too. There's quite a few really cute images I came across.

*squee*

And I am too. As well as my toes...

[snapdragon76.livejournal.com]

Thanks. *crosses fingers*

You read Shojo Beat, too? Cool! I just joined a community called shojobeat. I'd like to subscribe sometime. Maybe after all of this crap with the house settles down...

You are so my soul mate!! ^_^

And yeah, Baby and Me just doesn't appeal to me. Maybe it's the art style or something...

*grins* And I can use my new icon...

Good luck with B&N! That would be a fun place to work.

[snapdragon76.livejournal.com]

Thanks! And yes it would, and not just because of the employee discount...

[soleta-nf.livejournal.com]

Exactly! Though the discount is quite tempting too. :)

[snapdragon76.livejournal.com]

Very! Although, I have a feeling I'd just chuck my paycheck back to them...

[soleta-nf.livejournal.com]

I'm doing that a bit where I'm at now!

Good luck with the bookstore job......

[dracschick.livejournal.com]

I would love to work there. Unfortunately, every week, B&N would not give me a paycheck. They'd say "you owe us X" because I would buy so much stuff.LOL

*laughs* Yeah, same here...
