Last leaves of Greenwood

[eliyes]

Argh, I should be sleeping. Too bad I slept in this morning; getting to bed on time is therefore much, much harder tonight.

I just finished reading Volume 9 of Here is Greenwood, a manga series I became interested in 6 or 7 years ago. Volume 9 was the last volume. I liked it - I loved the series, I reread the books all the time - but now I'm sad that it's over. I guess that's the ephemeral nature of books about youth. Dammit anyway. ;_; *so proud of Suka-chan, so much love for the Mitsuru-Shinobu dynamic*

I guess I'll have to look for the OAVs and/or drama album(s?). But they've been out for a while, so I don't know that I'll find them.

Today was the last day of classes this semester (I wonder if that's affecting my reaction?) so now all that's lest is two sit-in exams, two take-home exams, and two term papers. (One is already dramatically late.) Next year I only really need to take two classes, provided I pass everything this year. And then - onto Japan, I hope.

I am so incredibly nervous.

I had a bit of trouble getting into Here is Greenwood. I'm glad you liked it tho. I always hate the let-down feeling you get when a series you really like ends... So, I solve that by moving onto another title to obsess over ;P (Perhaps thats why my collection is as large as it is...) I can suggest some other titles, if you'd like...

I know where you could buy physical copies of the OAVs et al here in Montreal, but I'm not sure of any places that offer them online...

I'm sure you'll do well on your papers and exams. But, just in case... Ganbatte ne!

I expect you to be curteous enough to post TONS of pictures of Japan, as I have no doubt you will get there.

I think the real reason I love HiG is because they're dorks. Cool dorks, but dorks. I love dorks. :D And while there are other things I am currently trying to get more of (FAKE, Yu Yu Hakusho - although I have the end of that in French, Swan, From Eroica With Love, YuGiOh which is unexpectedly plotful and cracktastic, Saint Seiya) if you want to suggest something to me, feel free!

There are people trying to lure me to Toronto for a visit this summer. Maybe I'd be able to find things there... (I'd say I'd stop at Montreal, but you can't just stop at Montreal when you've never been there. Firstly, I'd have no sweet clue where to find anything...)

I suppse I'll have to find a camera then. ;)
