Rise from the ashes January 3, 2011

Some epic backgroundmusic for the atmosphere: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HGQS5XSoJ4

About a year and four months ago something was born, something that would not change the world of blogging  forever. That someone was oddy555. Somehow he only stayed alive for 4 months and then a whole year and close to a month went by when the earth called again for this being. Rising from the ashes he decided to once again jump into the world of blogging. He had jumped into a new area, an area of moving out and a life at a university and with a stomach that wants more nerdy stuff than ever. A so called fresh start for this being called oddy555…

I guess I should cut it here (was it a bit funny or did it just sound arrogant?).  What I meant with the text above is simply that it’s time for a new start. Even thought my absence is mostly due to laziness, I have also been busy. The spring was full of studying to do since I did my last year in upper secondary school with projects and reports to do. And during the summer I worked alot and during fall I’ve been busy settling down at the university. But I still had time to blog in reality but I was to lazy I guess. And it’s a pity I didn’t blog cause even thought I was pretty busy last year I experienced some really awesome things.

During the last year I opened up another interest and that was toku shows(toku stands for tokusatsu check for more info here ; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tokusatsu ) And my show of choice was one of the Kamen Rider shows. I really started to watch it because it looked really B and funny. But I suprised over how well the characters in the show was and when I watchede trough those 50 eps it was hard to let it go since you got this connection with all of the characters.

I watched some awesome anime to during last year. (For example Kimi ni Todoke and Welcome to the NHK that’s now two of my favorite shows).  I also read trough most of Fukumotos mangas and I really love how he handles the human minds in his works. Legend of the strongest man Kurosawa was an really awesome work that got my mind thinking about of  stuff in life.

And as I stated above I also started my university education. If I remember correctly in english I’m studying to become Master of science in computer engineering and information technology(an engineer education). Had a really wonderfull reception where we played games (the kind of games you did as a child). It was very weird and awkward in the beginning but after a while everyone was on to it and me to.

So what’s the plan for 2011 then. I don’t really have a plan but study well is one goal and I also aim to play more Visual Novels this year and I’m looking forward to that. There’s also Kimi ni Todoke 2 airing soon so I guess I have that to watch for a while to. Other than that I guess I should let the flow of life decide what I’m gonna do.
