Blargh, I just finished some homework from last week. One more blessed week of this, then winter break.
You know what I've been doing most of the week? Playing Vampire Knight DS and giggling my ass off. I like it more than Twilight (three chapters of the audiobook and I cried "Enough!"), but it's still got enough ick factor to it that I haven't finished watching the first season of the show or gotten past one volume of manga. It's so good I squirm, but I squirm too much and it becomes uncomfortable.
But it's anime. It's more palatable to me. I'm too old to be getting my otome on, aren't I?
So why is it so fun?
Riddle me that, why dontcha? I even understand most of it. That's my excuse. I have not been able to flex my feeble Japanese knowledge in a while, and immersing myself in a fun video game is helping me blow off steam. The characters are fully voiced, so I don't have to try and read everything, since that would make the game take weeks instead of days.

Ah, it couldn't come at a worse time. The end of an academic quarter :(
Methinks I'm overly tired and need a break. Finals are next week, then I can lounge...and complete my harem.
