Soul Eater

I recently finished watching Soul Eater. It was by no means a great anime, but it did have what it takes for me to keep watching it. It had some interesting characters, and the plot actually came together quite nicely. The ending was pretty predictable, but that can be forgiven because there were a few interesting surprises.

It was basically an action anime, with some comedy, and some excessive fan service in the beginning arc. The world was well set up, with the exception of the death scythes that fought on their own. Why not just partner up with someone, wouldn't that just be better? But anyway, if you are looking for something pretty mindless to pass the time, and can suffer through Excalibur(you will know when you first see it), then its a good choice.

Musical Tolerence

I have been living with two of my friends for a while now, and I don't share either of their tastes in music. This has lead to an increase in my threshold for listening to music I don't like. I can tolerate it for quite a while. But ever since the new My Chemical Romance album came out, one of them has been playing the CD basically non-stop. I can't understand how someone can enjoy listening to the same album at least 3 times every day. I don't think I have ever listened to any album more than twice in one day, or even more than 5 times in a week.

So, I am stuck listening to an album that I don't enjoy at all at this point, every day. I think I am reaching my limit, and I have never reached my limit, not even close. The one thing that is saving me is the other roommate also hates the fact it is being constantly played, so I have someone to share my pain, and complain to.

Phone calls

At this point in my life I don't get a lot of phone calls(and my phone cannot text). My main means of non face-to-face communication is Instant Messaging and email. This makes getting phone calls awkward. When my phone went off today, I was baffled, as I had no idea why anyone would be calling me. It turned out to be a friend who doesn't use AIM, and wanted to see if I was going to a concert. But my first thoughts were, this could be really important, like someone died, or I got a job interview, or my brother is getting married. I could not fathom any other reasons, so I jumped off the couch and read the caller Id only to be a bit disappointed.
