pacificpikachuWe are in OCTOBER now and we're getting so so so close to X/Y! I have plans to drive down to Sacramento on the 11th, stay with a fellow Pokémon fan friend and his girlfriend, and I'm picking up my game at midnight! Totally excited!
I am having internal conflicts, though, in regards to spoilers! I'm trying to stay in the middle as far as spoilers go--I don't want to abstain from all spoilers, but I also don't want to know a ton so I can have lots and lots of surprises! Now that the game is officially out and about (thanks Canada and Italy), it's getting more challenging to figure out how to maintain this balance. ;_____; Part of me wants to rush in and see all the spoilers that are posted, another part of me is like, "Noooo, leave it for release date!" So, I dunno what to do. For now, I guess I'm just skimming over the spoilers so I get the gist, but not the details.
Time before release date was crawling by and I got frustrated at how slowly it was moving, so I decided to throw myself into something to pass the time. And that thing is...Breaking Bad! Ohhh man. My brother has been trying to get me to watch it for a while now, but with all the furor over the ending, finally I was like, "You know what? I'm just gonna watch it now." I started it yesterday, I'm on season 2 episode 7, and I gotta say it is quite excellent so far. Those first few episodes, though. And now I'm trying to maintain another balance: Not spending my entire life on Breaking Bad for now.
I also decided to read the Shingeki no Kyojin/Attack on Titan manga because I've read that there was a lot the anime left out or changed. I don't know if I'll get to it before X/Y, but that's my other plan!
I bought a big lot of Japanese Pokémon cards last night. It was too good of a deal to pass up. 1,500+ cards, 500+ holographic. Coro Coro shining Mew included (which will cover probably almost half the cost of the lot by itself), and eleven deck boxes, seven binders along with them. It's been a while since I bought cards... It's going to be really fun to sort through them! I'll probably keep some and sell the rest. I got some other nice small/medium lots of plush and figures, too, in the past week or two. Mostly for things I wanted in the lots, but of course having some things to resell isn't bad either. Last year during the holidays I actually made a decent amount with local sales, and hopefully this year will be similar! Then of course there's anime convention swap meets, and some online sales.
Anyway, back to Breaking Bad I suppose!
