Bleach

What the heck is happening?? Is the series over? Is there going to be some sort of ridiculous plot twist? To be honest, I haven't really been keeping up or even really reading the manga. I've just been browsing summaries and checking in every now and then to see how it's been progressing. But with what I've seen of the ending, I'm convinced that current events in the storyline are disappointing. After all these years, the artist has the guts to pull this kind of crap, and we're all left feeling like we've got a knife in the back, twisting as each successive chapter comes out. Thanks, Tite Kubo, thanks.

Sick

Being sick sucks. Nothing works properly, and you feel like crap. Screw you, pathogen, screw you. I hope you get torn up by my B cells and T cells and macrophages.

Learning Languages

It's really hard. But when you finally get things right, it feels as if, against all odds, there is some hope for you, and perhaps there is some potential hidden deep, deep, deep inside of you. That's when you're on top of the world. Rock on, language learners, rock on.
