Whoa, I haven't been all that active art-wise for a while. As I mentioned on Twitter a while back, I put Blue Starlight comics on hold -- at first due to a bad cold of some sort, and later to catch up with things around home while I have the month-and-a-half of summer break away from campus. I plan to resume regularly-scheduled comic updates as soon as I'm settled back into college, as well as continue work on a few other pieces. Apologies for the lack of art and updates this summer!

I started watching The Office since I've recently subscribed to Netflix, and have been watching through the series with my sister these past few months, though we're not quite caught up to current episodes just yet. I'm not much of a fan of live-action TV series for some reason (Burn Notice, Eureka, and Warehouse 13 the only other series still in production that have my interest), but The Office has been enjoyable

Also, I'll come right out and say it (if it hasn't been apparent yet) -- I'm a brony I've watched through all episodes of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (twice in fact), and enjoyed each one. I blame Youtube and Memebase for getting me interested, and Lauren Faust for making ponies 20,000% cooler. For those who haven't seen the show, it's hard to define what exactly makes the series so appealing to a young adult male; it might be the combination of expressive animation style, superb voice acting, solid cast of characters/personalities, and great writing. Not like those old girly MLP series. And for any fellow bronies out there, Apple Jack would have to be my favorite mane character, Apple Bloom my favorite CMC, and of course Derpy my favorite background character

I haven't been watching as much anime as I used to, though I still keep up with Nichijou at the very least. Aside from that, the only anime I've finished from last season so far was Ano Hana, which had its flaws, but was ultimately an excellent drama. World God Only Knows 2 wasn't quite as good as the first season, but still enjoyable nonetheless.

Played through some of the more recent DLCs for Mass Effect 2 and Dragon Age 2 on the 360, which were pretty good. Also got Banjo-Tooie off Xbox Live and finished that; loved it when it first came out, and still love it today And I recently found a good deal on Psychonauts, which I've heard good things about, though I'm not too far into the game just yet. Been playing a bunch of games on Steam as well, though it's getting to be that I have too many games to write about (thank the big winter and summer sales for that), so I'll just leave the Gameplay Stats of this page for anyone curious of what I've been playing on PC

Comiket 80 happened last weekend, welcoming the release of Touhou 13! Haven't played a ton of it yet, but so far I've managed to beat the game on Easy, make it to level 4 without dying on Normal (then proceeding to get butchered by those later bosses), and make it to the start of level 6 on Normal. Lots of awesome Touhou music came out that weekend too, such as from Yuuhei-Satellite, Xi-on, K-Waves Lab, and Silver Forest. Not to mention this video -- possibly one of the most emotional Touhou videos ever made, and a great summary of the backstory behind Touhou 12.

Other than the above, not a whole lot had changed with me since the last blog I posted; just heading back to more classes after the weekend. Oh, and here's a journal-tag thing I filled out:
