Holidays

Back at Taiping since last Saturday and won't be going back KL anytime soon. Nothing much changed, everyone's still the same and still nothing much we can do in Taiping except Taiping Sentral, hanging around Taman Tasik Restaurant or maybe Webzone? lol. Went to Penang last Sunday with Jason,XY,XA,Kok,KC,Arun,MK,SS and his sister. At first we planned to go Ipoh but then it was cancelled due to majority vote..haha. But Penang wasn't disappointing like we though, at least the trip to Ferringhi Beach was worth it =), hopefully Kok will upload the photo at FB asap.

The trip to Penang was rather smooth, avoided some accidents to be exact, SWT. XY and Jason each drove a car and we all meet up at Seik San's house. I'm the last to be at his house since Jason will be fetching me. They all gather at there and picked me up last cause my house is near to SS's house, only 5 mins by car but they lost their way while using the shortcuts and took them almost half an hour. Went to Prima to have our breakfast and then only started our journey at around 9.30. Reached at 10.30+ and headed to Queensbay, walk around, talk around, nothing much can a bunch of boys do at shopping complex =.=. Had our lunch there before going to Gurney Plaza. As expected again, nothing to do..just walking around, then we decided no more shopping complex since none of us bought anything. We then stopped by Ferringhi Beach but too bad cause most of use is wearing long pants and sportshoe..haha. Hang there for almost 2 hours before going back Taiping. Had dinner again at Prima and then something happened which i don't feel like writting anymore, nothing important though..almost all camped at SS's house and went back the next morning..haha.

Nothing much to do when I'm at home except watching drama/anime, boringla..but I'll still be here for a month before Sem 3 starts. Anyway there are still lots of nice anime that I'm not well aware of last time besides those Naruto, Bleach, One Piece, FMA blah blah blah. The manga are better than the anime..thats what i think cause i dont watch naruto and one piece anymore..just read, lol. Finished 3 animes recently, Spice and Wolf 1/2, To Aru Majutsu no Index and Seto no Hanayome. Although the name sounds weird but they are definatelty worth watching.

To Aru Majutsu no Index



Toaru Majutsu no Index is set in a city of scientifically advanced superhuman students, but in a world where magic is also real. Tōma Kamijō's right hand, the Imagine Breaker, will negate all magic, psychic, or divine powers, as well as his own luck. One day he finds a young girl hanging on his balcony railing named Index. She turns out to be a nun from the Church of England, and her mind has been implanted with the Index Librorum Prohibitorum—all the magical texts the Church has removed from circulation. His encounter with her leads him to meet others from the secret world of science and magic and an adventure with his friends where science and magic collide. Tōma's unusual power places him at the center of conflicts relating magicians and science-based espers in Academy City. As Tōma tries to help and protect his friends, he learns the people he knows are not as they appear and begins to attract the attention of magicians and espers alike as they try to unravel the secrets of Academy City and Index.


Spice And Wolf 1/2



Spice and Wolf's story revolves around Kraft Lawrence, a twenty-five-year-old traveling merchant who peddles various goods from town to town to make a living in a stylized historical setting with European influences. His main goal in life is to gather enough money to start his own shop, and he already has been traveling for seven years while gaining experience in the trade. One night when stopped at the town of Pasroe, he finds in his wagon a pagan wolf-deity girl named Holo who is over six hundred years old. She appears to be a fifteen-year-old girl, except for a wolf's tail and ears. She introduces herself as the town's goddess of harvest, who has kept it blessed with good harvests of wheat for many years. Despite having the responsibility to watch over the town, she wants to go back to her homeland in the north called Yoitsu; she believes the people have already forsaken her and that she has kept her promise to maintain the good harvests. Holo wants also to travel to see how the world has changed while she has remained in one place for years. She manages to bargain her way out of the village by making a deal with Lawrence to take her with him. As they travel, her wisdom helps increase his profits, but at the same time, her true nature draws unwanted attention from the church. Throughout the novels, the two slowly fall in love.

Seto No Hanayome



Seto no Hanayome's story revolves around a young teenage boy named Nagasumi Michishio. One day during his summer vacation, Nagasumi was saved from drowning by a mermaid, Sun Seto, in the Seto Inland Sea. However, under mermaid law, if a mermaid's identity as a mermaid has been revealed, either the mermaid who was involved or the human who saw the mermaid are to be killed. In an attempt to save both Nagasumi and Sun's lives, Sun's family, which is apparently the head of its own mob, reluctantly decides that the two are to be married.

Gōzaburō, Sun's father, however, is enraged about his daughter running off and getting married, especially to a human whom he deems inferior. Between Gōzaburō's attempts on his life and the madcap antics of a whole slew of antagonists — including the daughter of a rival mobster and a rich male transfer student with an attraction for Sun — Nagasumi is not enjoying a very smooth transition into his new lifestyle.



All of the animes I've listed above only has 20+ episodes each. Short but nice. Comparable with those long-winded anime or maybe even better, lol. Each is of different genre. If you wanna laugh your a** off then go for seto no hanayome. For simple light anime go for Spice and Wolf. For those fightings then go for ToAru.

Those in bold italics are quote from Wiki, lazy to write..(can see from my blog updates, after 1 month only update once) haha
