Rangers Vs. Miniskirts

In honor of this post I'm using red as my font. I finally did it! It's way over due! But I finally joined the Risembool Rangers. What is this you ask? Well, if you've ever watched Fullmetal Alchemist, brotherhood OR the first series, you know there is this rivalry between Edward Elric and Colonel Roy Mustang, note the teasing and bickering between me and Rice since those are our nicknames. The three of us met Vic Mignogna (the voice of Edward) at Ikkicon at the beginning of this year. This was when I was just getting into the show, but I already found him extremely awesome! I was telling you in previous posts how I wanted to meet Travis Willingham (the voice of Roy). This is anime's equivalent to the Twilight "Team" thing except in the anime world your either "Team Edward" (The cool Edward, not the sparkly gay one) or "Team Roy". So basically you either join "The Risembool Rangers" (Vic's group) and "The Miniskirt Army" (Travis's group). Now both of these groups are just for fun nothing serious. I am a proud Ranger! Our colors are red and black of course! If your a Miniskirt then you get the Military blue. If your a fan of Fullmetal Alchemist, and want to join one of these groups (coughRANGERScough) that would be awesome! Of course you need to make sure you fallow the rules, and respect all the moderators. Both of these groups are really cool! But the Rangers are awesomer XD Haha Later!

First Non-Izaya related post in forever...

Wait, does this make it Izaya related? Because if it does, then I'm just gonna keep talking about...FINE! Be that way, I'll move on from my current cartoon-crush for awhile. XD

So I got back from a "school retreat" but I'm sure you don't wanna hear about that.

Ok, I got a topic.

CHICKEN EXPRESS SWEET TEA IS AMAZING! Got that? Good. Go get some right now. Or tomorrow. Next time you eat out, go to chicken express JUST for the sweet tea. That's my mission to you. Capice?

Three cups sugar, no cups spice, two pounds of ice makes everything...just plain awesome.

Bye!

AMV Saturday!

I have an obsession with Anime Music Videos and slideshows, as I've mentioned in previous posts, so I'm going to share one of my personal favorites of the week at the end of each week! ^_^

Aka. The one I've been watching over and over. I have a different obsession each month. This month is Durarara!! in case you coudn't already tell. (Yeah, the exclamation points are part of the title.)

And even though he's a creeper....well, Izaya's amazing. Just freaking awesome. And he's MAJOR creeper.

5 Things to Remember When Playing Zelda

Mini thought it would be a good idea if I post something "productive" so I'm going to giveyou some tips that will hopefully help you in your next game of Zelda, or if you havent ever played at all, and want to try it out!

#5 - Use your common sense.
You must be thinking this is an odd piece of advice for a fantasy game, but to be honest its really not. The game is mostly going through dungeons, and fighting monsters right? Well what happends if you walk in the Fire Temple and you still have a wooden shield? For the most part, enemies in a FIRE Temple will use FIRE, and what happends to wood when it catches on fire? It burns, so you might want to switch out your wooden shield for a more flame resistant one. There are things like these all throughout the game, so just use your common sense I say!

#4- Make good use of your partner.
Ok in every game of Zelda you are given a friend at some point to help you a little throughout the game. In Ocarina of Time for example, you were given Navi the fairy, in Twilight Princess, you were given Midna! Now, after you've played the game a few times, these little helpers can become a bit useless, but especially when your playing a game for the first time, USE THEM! They are actually extremely helpful at times, thats what their there for! Theres always a way you can talk to them at anytime if your stuck, they just give you a little hint that could actually help you get out of that room you've been stuck in and cant find the door or help you slay that giant monster trying to eat your face.

#3- Talk to the people around you.
Oddly, you can find REALLY valuable information by just talking to the characters in a village or in Castle Town. They could possibly tell you what you should do next, some give you locations to heart pieces or treasures, some of them can sell you things that you cant find in any of the shops, and some just give you random hints to use later! I would especially go for the characters that seem really, odd, like the odd one out, sometimes you'll see a man sitting on a roof maybe or find a lonely ghost to talk to, either way those odd ones are going to give you the best information most of the time, but dont ignore the people that SEEM normal. Could they be hiding something?

#2- Look for Heart Pieces.
This may seem like a really tedious task, and I'm not going to lie to you, it is, but it REALLY helps in the long run. For the first 3 dungeons or so you may feel like you dont really need to look for heart pieces, and that your doing fine with your 5 or 6 hearts...well it gets HARDER my friends it really does, there are going to be little things that kill you and your going to be sorry you didn't get those heart pieces, especially your first go around. So take the time to go, and look for a few of them at a time. I would look for at least 2 everytime you complete a dungeon or your sent on an odd task. They can be found in trees, under bridges, even in that huge chandalier hanging from the cieling. Look EVERYWHERE they really do help.

#1 - Use your shield.
And my last piece of advice for now, use your shield. I con not stress this enough....you would not believe how many people have died because they refuse to use the shield! It is not a fashion statement! USE IT! You would be amazed at how many time it has saved my butt! One of the main things I never forget is to switch out my wooden shield to the Hylian shield as soon as I can. In some games you can find the Hylian shield instead of having to save up rupees to buy it, but in other cases, like Twilight Princess, you have to buy it. Trust me it is worth the expense as shown in my first example. Your shield cant protect you from everything, but trust me, you will take 10x less damage buy using it.

Ok well thats all the tips I'm going to give for now! Trust me I have loads more to give later. you might actually find these tips do help, even in the games that are played on the DS or Gameboys. I hope these help you in your quest to save Hyrule!

I wish....

I wish I had something specific to blog about, that way this post didn't look so stupid, just because I FELT like blogging. Oh well, after thinking for twenty minutes, I still have....nothing. Zip. Nada. So this'll probably be one of those aimless ramblings about cereal and books.

Or, in this case, Amvs.

I have an AMV addiction. I only like listening to music if it has an AMV with it. No kidding. I've seen hundreds of 'em. Some people need illustrations with their books...apparently I need them with my music.

And so, I'll leave you with this little parting gift. Gotta love Durarara!! This song so fits Izaya. *ahem*

Can you hear my inner fangirl yet?

So yeah, uuuuuuuuuuuuummmmmmmmmmmmm.....

Durarara!! is awesome. I mean that. I just did an entire rant on how Cartoon Network now sucks. Well, Japan animation doesn't. I can't wait for the English dub of Durarara!! either.

And Izaya is awesome. Who can compete with this face?

Uh, yeah. I thought so. Only Megs: She hates him. Because he's fairly evil. Especially to Shizuo.

But we all think Shizuo is awesome: come on, he throws garbage cans.

After these thoughts, I'm gonna go.

Rain, Rain Dont Go Away!

Its been Raining for like 3 days now, and I am loving it! School was cancelled today because of the rain! eep! The only one not enjoying the rain is our very own Colonel. She's been a little disturbed by the amount of rain we've been getting, she locked herself in a water proof box, and started wearing plastic pants.... Ok I'm kidding, but that would be really funny. So I think I may force myself to clean my room today at least a little bit... I'm missing my Zelda that Mini took and "the Legend of Artemis Fowl" hasnt made any progress as of yet, but by all means Alphonse take your time! No rush! I need to get to work on my Link cosplay. My dad has been helping me, but so far the only thing finished is my Master Sword, which is really awesome! Maybe I'll put some pictures of it up or something. So I went to this gun shop the other day..... (in case I forgot to mention, I have this thing with guns.. I LOVE them, I love going to the range, and me and dad like to go hunting a lot, while I was watching Mini's house I had to bring a 9mm with me...I always have a gun at home just in case...and her family doesnt own one so it just made me feel better to have it with me...anyway!..) and I saw this AMAZING Kimber 45! (if you dont know what it is look it up!) It was amazing! So pretty! Now if only I had an extra 900 bucks laying around... oh well! Maybe I'll get a new gun for my birthday! Haha. Later!
