Screw the system, I don't need no title

Bam. didn't expect this did you? Neither did I (Man I love the word "neither"). I was just sitting there on the couch thinking "It sure got late quickly, I've wasted yet another day I could've spent on writing an update". But nay, nay I say! I went to my blog bookmark for some reason and decided to see what would happen if I pressed "new entry". Little did I know this would happen.

(Have you ever noticed how many times the word "I" is used in a blog? Especially mine? Well I sure didn't notice!)

If you thought I would give a detailed explanation as to what I've been up to the last two months (or whatever the hell has been happening the entire spring here in Japan, for that matter), you'd be wrong. I made (had? I can't English anymore) an important realization recently: It's not entertaining to read stuff like "today I - and then I x and then ~ happened, followed by |. It was all very interesting and fun until * occurred, so embarrassing!"

Instead I shall do my best to write from my soul, that thing people make jokes about having sold to the devil and stuff, a bad name for pets and also part of what makes Soul Eater so awesome (also I've yet to try out God Eater, despite having had the game in my possession for quite a while).

So yeah today I got this cool idea for a character and I just have to tell somebody about it, not that it's great or anything but you know. Aaaaanyways it's probably based upon Princess Mononoke, an Eon character I once made and a tint of Discworld.
So there's this guy and no way, no damn way am I going to start a description that way. That would be so... Average!

So anyways imagine an academy for magicians and sorcerers (oh ho ho so original) where the character in question would be a talented student (yes, this is all very unique and inspiring I assure you) with just a bit too much curiosity. He befriends one of the teachers (adoptive father?) and asks an intriguing question: Why do the teachers have extremely powerful spells despite no such spells being described in any of the books at the academy? (he's obviously read them all, being the genius he is).
The answer is revealed to be a secret tome hidden somewhere in the dungeons (there has to be dungeons!) from which the magicians learn fascinating things.
After Harry Potter-esque investigations, the prodigy learns of the tome's location and finds a way to break into its vault. He then finds the tome and opens it.
That's where things go horribly wrong.
You see, it's by no means a normal book. Inside of it is a sealed demon, holder of immeasurable power and even more evil. Normally a fully educated mage would carefully put several layers of his most powerful protection spells on himself and then proceed to barely touch the book with his finger, hoping to only let a single fragment of a spell from the demon seep into him. All under careful supervision by at least 4 seniors.
Our hero (the poor bastard) instead opens the book wide, without any protective spells, all alone.

His inhuman scream of pain and terror is enough to alert the attention of the entire staff, the wizards teleport to the room instantly and manage to halt the demon's process to completely possess our poor guy.
While they do manage to save his life and psyche, his body is another story. Both of his arms that touched the book were completely covered in dark magic symbols, leaving the spellcasters no choice but to amputate them before they would start strangling everyone within reach due to the demon's influence. The rest of his body was only partially covered in symbols (and with covered I mean burned into his flesh), each containing powerful spells some people could only wish to hear about once in a lifetime. While there was no risk for the demon to take control over the character anymore, the warlocks were obviously reluctant to let someone with such immense power roam free. So he is virtually imprisoned inside the academy for a good portion of his life, rarely having anyone else to talk to but his own thoughts (slight insanity is cool I hear).

The adventure obviously kicks off once he makes his escape. (whaddya think?)


Alright so that took more time to write than I expected (ideas always do) but now that I've got that out of my mind for a while I feel like I can actually talk a little bit about what I've been up to, no details though (or rather, details without the big picture).

I've gone to karaoke recently, for a grand total of 4 times during this year (sad, I know). After the latest one I made the amazing discovery of finding out that I'm actually kind of good at it. I managed to sing Hito Toshite Jiku Ga Bureteiru, PAPERMOON, Zankoku Na Tenshi No Teese, Haruka Kanata and many others without great problems (and apparently my Japanese sounds solid when I sing songs). It's enough to make me go "Yay!" a few times.

Oh yeah, the end is getting near. I got my flight information in the (virtual) mail the other day. It looks like I'll be arriving at Arlanda around 19.35 on the 12th of June (that's like totally soon man).

It being so near to my return. I've decided to do something fun and go to school dressed in all those fancy clothes I brought but ended up never using. Today I took my fanciest clothes of all, including my dear glasses, and proceeded to go to school.
I ended up being called Ikemen (it kind of means "good looking guy") or Kakkoii more times than during the entire year. I'm not sure if I should be happy for the praise or frown over the Japanese girls' shallowness (I just wore different clothes, how does that suddenly make my physical appearance more attractive?)
I'm half tempted to cut my hair and dye it blonde just to go all the way on this ゼクシい track. We'll see about it.

Well, it looks like this will have to be it for today. Do remember though that I still intend to make at least one of those fancy things called a "Vlog" before I return.

Ooh, just got a cellphone mail.
