Bought new manga! So expensive...

- Oresama Teacher v1-6, 9 (gonna go back for volume 8, I got v7 elsewhere. Couldn't remember whether it was 7 or 8 that I'd gotten...)
- Akagami no Shirayuki Hime v1-4 (I love this series~. Finally caved and bought it!)
- Yankee-kun to Megane-chan v20 (Yoh is on the cover, eee)
- T.R.A.P. v1-2 (mystery + soccer + telepathy... seems interesting?)
- Junai Labyrinth v3 (I love Nakaji Yuki's stuff!)
- Momoyama Kyoudai v1 (cover looked cute! I love the mangaka's other work, Kingyou Sou, so I'm hoping I'll like this too)

Also bought some comic anthologies. GFantasy December features Kimi to Boku as the cover (Yuuki and Yuuta~, eeee!) and also has a KtB alternative cover for v9. It says inside that if you buy v9 at Animate, you get a special drawing. T___T; I wish I were in Japan! There are also new KtB keychains you can order from an order form in the magazine. Of course, you have to be in Japan for this too... D:

I was also thinking of getting Usotsuki Lily (by the mangaka of Mixed Vegetables). I really love how her characters look. Might get it tomorrow. Somehow, it seems the majority of manga I usually purchase are all shoujo series... I think it might be because shounen series are just so long. I don't have the money to buy the whole set. :'D (Or any room to store them...) I've been wanting to buy Bakuman for the longest time... maybe sometime in the far future. I ordered Tenipuri Kanzenban v9 and v10 online, as well as Kimi to Boku v9. My bookstore is faaaar too slow and don't have those in stock.

I also bought some manga last month. One of the series among those was Satou-kun no Juunan Seikatsu v1-2. I bought it for the sole reason that it's by Kaneshiki Swiss (Satoumizu), who draws a lot of Tenipuri crack doujinshi. I have a lot of her doujinshi, and her booth was the only one I specifically visited at Comiket in 2009. This original series of her is very full of... crack, haha. Will post some pics next time. I was expecting BL since I thought that was the genre (and was even thinking to myself, oh, this is my first BL series!)... it's so not BL, haha. It's just very full of crack.

... I'm going to play hermit and disappear for a bit for [livejournal.com profile] yuletide. My main assignment's not quite done yet. I finished reviewing the canon last week, took copious notes this week to make sure I knew all of the characters' names (I charted it all out, haha), but the actual fic still isn't even half done. I have no excuse with not being able to write the prompt because it was one I bookmarked and was confident I could write! Except it's wanting to become something huge. This is not NaNo, and there aren't that many hours left. I have to rein myself in and take this in another direction!! I probably should not have claimed a pinch hit in addition to this assignment, but I did, since that pinch hit was also from someone whose letter I had bookmarked and was hoping to write. :'D I hope what I manage with both of these is presentable. (I've also been checking my AO3 profile to see if my number of gifts have gone up, and OMG, whoever my Yuletide writer and possible treat giver(s) are, you all are so on top of things! I'm super impressed!) I can't wait for Yuletide~! But... gotta write first. XD;

Eeeeee! XDD I guess skim before Madness starts, or start writing now, or get up really early.

XDD I have gotten into fandoms by reading the fanfic first, so it's very much possible. :3

Yeah, it was. Hmm, since I was wrong last time, I think the site will be stalling when Madness hits, and then continue on until, what, the 26th?

I was able to edit the fic that I wasn't pleased about into something I like slightly better! All I needed was an extra three sentences. XDD

When I wake up... the archive might have just gone live. XDD

Yeah, that's probably the best thing to do.

Eeeeeee! 4k+ of rare fic? 8D Awesome. I wish there was more I could write for. Maybe I should go back to the letters I saved and see if I can give them treats as well...
