They don't tell you how hard it is to get back into posting on Livejournal after month-long hiatuses (hiatūs?). They should, but they don't. And the fact that I have things like Tumblr, Gaia, Lang-8, Sims, and, of course, schoolwork to take my mind away from it doesn't help matters.
If it makes you feel any better, my life hasn't been all that interesting. I've been in school, studying basically the same things I was studying last year. I'm now a linguistics minor in addition to a Japanese major, so there's that. Also, there is the fact that I will be studying abroad in Japan next year. Which, ngl, is pretty awesome. :D
I haven't really gotten into any new fandoms either. Except ASoIaF/Game of Thrones and Gankutsuou, which both happened this summer... yeesh, it's been that long. (e: OH WAIT I FORGOT LYCHEE LIGHT CLUB wow I suck. Yeah, Lychee Light Club too. Also that reminds me to say hello to my new f!s friending meme friends
astrokittie and
tasogare_n_hime. Hi! c:) I haven't left any of my old fandoms either, and I just got bit bad by the Baccano! bug so if I start posting regularly on here again it will probably involve a lot of squeeing about that show. Just like old times. :D
Which I suppose is as good a segue as any. I'd originally planned to make a post a couple weeks ago to tell y'all to go vote in
animetournament, but then I never did and by now we're down to the top 12 and my boy Jacuzzi got knocked out of the running so it's a bit late to make any exhortations to that effect. You can still vote though if you want to. :B No, the main reason for my post right now is this: who all is going to Anime Boston? Because I know some of you live around here or at least make it here for cons, and let's face it, we need to meet up. The really cool thing is I'll be cohosting a panel this year ("How Is This Con Different From All Other Cons? An Otaku Passover"), so if you want to stop by and say hi, I will be the one up there who doesn't have facial hair. Or if you just see me around the con, I'll probably be cosplaying Graham Specter all three days, and if you don't know who that is, look for the giant wrench. :B
So there is that, and also, I guess, what is going on in your lives even if you are not going to AB. I HAVE FORGOTTEN HOW TO END LJ POSTS

I loves the baccanoes! I wish they'd give it another season of shenanigans (or an Isaac and Miria spinoff OVA? CAN IT HAPPEN!). My best friend cosplayed Graham and she's always tried to get me to be/I've always wanted to be Claire. Someday...
It's cool about LHC/LLC! I think it's kind of funny that they translated it because it's written in plain English in the Japanese version that it's "Litchi Hikari Club", but I think having a totally translated name helps sales? I really don't care though, Vertical did a great job on it. I wish there was more of a fandom that I could stand. I swear I want to punch half of the fans I come by. And the fandom's not really active, except maybe on Tumblr. And I think it's mostly me poking fun at it and being generally obnoxious. Have you read it's sequel/prequel?
... Oh lordy no, Gankutsuou is probably less gay than the novel. I first read it when I was 12... ish and I wasn't even a dirty awful rotten old fujoshi at that point and I was like "... dang. This is gay." It's a really wonderful book, I'd recommend it! Just make sure you don't end up with the abridged version.
It makes no sense to me since... Nobody on DW really posts that much? And Tumblr's so impersonal so I'm losing on both fronts. I stick on LJ for the icon contests, because I'm a laber.
