Eleven(th) heaven?

So... 2010 is on its way out. And good riddance to it too, I say, it stuck around too long.

Sorry, 2010, but I found someone new. She's younger and fresher, and she's already treating me a lot better than you ever did. With her, I feel more hope for the future than you gave me.

OK, yes, it's your sister 2011. Don't look at me like that.

Anyway, yeah, last blog post of the year. Didn't think it'd go like that, but with less than thirty minutes to go, I thought I might as well say something. It's just... I don't know what.

It was a long, weird year. It had its ups and downs in all kinds of extremes, but I persevered. I pulled through. I survived. Some things were lost, some things were gained. But that's just life for you. I'm still here, so I guess that means I'm still winning. And 2011 promises a lot of good things already- new Pokemon games in English, a semester in London, all-new Doctor Who, hopefully Anime Iowa in the summer, and I can't help but shake the feeling that my romantic luck may finally turn around.

Well then, 2011. Are you ready for it? The only way to do it is to jump in headfirst, and in keeping with tradition...

GERONIMOOOOOO!!!!

MARCH 6 MARCH 6 MARCH 6

...it's the date that Pokemon Black and White come out in English.

*dusts off blog*

Yeeeaaaahhh, another one of those long hiatuses. Quite a lot has happened- got more stuff ready for London, exploring ideas for things I want to do while there. I gave into weakness and now can play Black and White on my laptop... I'm doing White first, then Black- reverse of my English-language plans, basically. Yeah, I'm playing in Japanese, but Bulbapedia's a big help. It's also a good opportunity to use some of the Pokemon I didn't quite get to choose for my proper playthroughs.

Finished Terry Pratchett's "I Shall Wear Midnight" today. Yet another awesome Discworld novel. I wonder if I can find cool Discworld stuff in the UK. Hopefully...

Being home for break is nice. Got to see the Doctor Who Christmas special a couple days ago- actually on Christmas day! Go BBC America, finally working hard to deliver what the fans deserve.

I see have three followers now. I don't even remember getting the third, so... hi to you! Although I doubt many people will see this post. Hrmm.

Don't really feel like typing much at the moment... perhaps I will be back tomorrow or another time to relate some more. See y'all next time.
