Spring Break!
Mar. 19th, 2005 01:15 am::pets pretty computer:: My dad bought a brand new shiny computer just in time for Spring Break. After a tiny rough start with the internet
and installation issues, everything's okay and I'm now enjoying the 19 inch flat screen, 1 GB of memory, and the fancy new video card. So, I'm planning to spend part of spring break glued to the computer (Outdoors, what?) with the Sims 2 and the ever new crack-filled anime series that![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
hecatehatesthat recced/uploaded called Princess Tutu.
I've tried explaining it to some of my friends and they stare at me as if I'm crazy (which I am, but for other reasons) It involves a
ballet, school, a amnesiatic prince with no heart or ability to feel, and a girl (Ahiru) who's also a duck. Her secret power is the ability
to turn into Princess Tutu and dance with/against those who harbor pieces of the Prince's heart. She's in love with him and would just
like to see him smile. It makes more sense when you realize that it sort of a storyteller's world coming alive (because of his death) with
all his stories intermingling. Somehow he's trying to manipulate things to make everything right again. It's really sweet, with Ahiru and her
insecurities. (Is she really a girl or is she just a duck who's temporarily a girl?)
And so that's my new thing.
Other things to look forward to: Road trip! A friend and I have decided to just go somewhere. There's no actual plan, just the idea of heading south: Oregon, California possibly. Camping, sleeping in motels, etc... It should be quite fun. I've never been on a road trip before.
ETA: Bah, LJ...
