currently listening to: nothing

woke up super early today. super early considering it's a saturday. i was so excited to go to the movies with D. but...plans change so we'll do it tomorrow.

thanks to this little falling through, my mom and i had another bonding session. our first this year. it wasn't so bad. except that i got teary-eyed. i'll allow that since this is like the first time all over again.

if you don't know what i'm talking about...it's probably better that way.

i just watched the 2006 version of The Girl Who Leapt Through Time. i learned about it when i was browsing through another person's blog. so off i went to watch it. it's pretty good. very funny at times. the ending was kinda disappointing though. i guess i'm just used to having a feel-good happy ending all the time.

back to the old regime. g'night.

anyway, on to the real reason for this post. i've been watching samurai x/rurouni kenshin with my brother for a while now. and i must say, it was addicting. the dvd that my brother bought included 3 OVAs. my favorite one had to be Samurai X: Trust and Betrayal.

it tells the story of how kenshin got his cross-shaped scar, how he became the hitokiri, and his life as the battosai. i loved it so much. especially the kenshin-tomoe love story.

i got really excited about it so i looked up fanfiction about it.

i was sorely disappointed. i tried looking for kenshin-tomoe stories but they were so limited. mostly one-shots.

most of the stories are about the kenshin-kaoru love story. out of interest, i read some. it seems like people really like it. as for me, i couldn't stomach the pairing. i read one "lemon" and in my mind's eye, i threw up.i guess i just see them as friends. i don't think that what they have is real love. even after watching Samurai X: Reflection.

i have no idea why i feel so strongly about this. i must have been so affected by Trust and Betrayal. ugh.

in other news, can you guess how many posts i've made?

apparently, a lot.
