  Boston and Manga - Awesome Combo

  Its been a while since my last post
  
  Ahh, I am finaly completely up-to-date with the Bleach manga being released by Viz, just waiting for Vol. 24 to come out now I actually completed the collection within a month - pretty fast, pretty sad I feel sorry for the people working at Borders, they have to see me nearly every day.
  Yes, I've developed an addiction to Borders - its really funny, there is this one woman who works there, and whenever she sees me she just starts laughing and says "back again?" Ahh its all fun and games .
  I also bought September's eddition of Shoen Jump - its pretty cool, and I got a free Yu-Gi-Oh! card with it, too!
  And speaking of Borders, while I was in there I was brousing through the Manga section (pfft where else would I be?!) and I wandered 'round to the Yu-Gi-Oh! section and noticed that they had Volume 7 of the Millenium World series - this is the first time that i've ever seen it in stock....so i bought it Its pretty good - I love the Ceremonial duel.
  
  On another note, I need a new game - I haven't got a new game in AGES!!!
  What I have started to do, though, is go over my PS2 games and start playing all of the old ones - i whipped out Digimon Rumble Arena 2 last night...it was mildly entertaining
  
  Thats enough for now - BOSTON LEGAL RUUUUUUUULLLLLLEEEEEESSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!

  Here we go again...

  *Yawn*
  Ahh, so it begins - the second semester of Uni...fun...
  Sort of looking forward to it, but kinda not
  
  I'm making some headway with my Bleach Manga collection, I've got Volumes 1, 2, 5, and 6 as well now - I wanted to get 3 and 4, but apparently they hadn't unpacked them yet - they were in the store...but not on the shelves....so dissapointed - but hopefully getting them today or tomorrow.
  
  Dragon Ball Z Manga has also caught my eye, there is a massive eddition that has the first 3 volumes of Dragon Ball Z - plus it has colour pages - something that is often left out between Japanese and English editions. Its about $40 Australian, which is pretty good considering that the individual volumes are $20 each - which i feel is a bit too much - the US price printed on the back says its $7.95, and while there is a difference in currency value surely its not that big a difference. So, yeah, $40 AU gets you 3 volumes in one with colour pages - much better than paying $60 for 3 volumes all in black and white.
  
  Oh, and why does nearly everyone at the Gotei 13 have pictures of their characters with hats on?!?! Where did they come from?! They look cool - i want one
  
  Anyway, time to go - Uni awaits!!
  *runs....falls down stairs....*
  Uhhhghh....

  Almost Post-Birthday

  OK, well it was my 19th birthday yesterday (Thusday 10th) and i'd thought i'd just write about it for a little bit .
  First off, many thanks to the members of the Gotei 13 Union for all the birthday wishes - thanks so much guys, that was a great way to start the day
  
  Well as my birthday fell on a Thursday, I wasn't to keen to do anything then, mainly because its during the week and people work. However my Uni friends decided to take me out for lunch. We had lunch in the Botanical Gardens - it was actually really fun. One of my friends managed to get her hands on some noise makers ... so the gardens weren't that quiet.
  It was good spending time with them away from Uni.
  While in the city I noticed that EB Games was having a sale so i decided to venture in...something caught my eye but i deceded not to buy it. We then went to Borders (massive book store) and several things there caught my eye...Manga to be presice. Ahh, Yu-Gi-Oh!, DragonBall, DragonBall Z and Bleach...all there...and none of those series complete (damn it!!). But once again, I walked out empty handed.
  
  Our final destination (by now we were down to 3 of us as it was getting on in the afternoon) was Allans Music Store. As music students at Uni, this stop was a no-brainer. Sarah, Josh and I began looking at all of the music books on the second floor - ahh, it was fun. However Josh and I found something that really caught our attention. Music from Star Wars. We flipped through the book and the second piece we see is the Canteena theme. Josh and I looked at each other and we both said "upstairs". The third floor of Allans Music Store is FILLED with pianos for sale...or in our case, for practice. It was fun playing around on a Baby Grand while trying to play the Canteena Theme. After about an hour in Allans we decided to go our separate ways.
  
  By now...I wanted to buy myself a Birthday present (as is my custom)...so what did i do? I stopped over in Borders (the book store) and purchased Bleach Volume 19 (Pretty much Ichigo vs. Byakuya) then went over to EB Games and purchased the game that had caught my eye - Bleach: The Blade of Fate (DS). Ahh, fun.
  
  After that I caught the bus to my sick sister's house and spent some time with her and my brother-in-law.
  When i got home, straight on my DS Its actually a really good game (might review it ).
  
  Anyway, enough about Birthdays. A NEW BLEACH CHAPTER IS COMING OUT!! AHH!!!! Thank goodness i was wrong. Thanks Kubo!!
  All thats left now, is to wait for Saturday night (my friends from church [some of my closest friends] and some family [cousins]) and Sunday night (immediate family) to get some presents .... just kidding Can't wait, though!!!
