Death, doom, distruction and chaos!!! >:-3 Or things of the sort.....

Well it would appear that as of today, my time is no longer occupied by the dread of what we all know of as school.  Finals are done, classes ended last week, and for about three and a half weeks I've got nothing to do but go around causing all sorts of trouble!! >:-3 Or at least I'd like to think so anyways......

Other than the obvious holidays I don't really have much on tap for the break, which is pretty typical for most any times I have off of school.  Mostly just sleep, messing around on the computer, hanging out with friends when invited to do such, and lots of anime I need to watch.  Which is where I suppose I'll start off.  Amongst the truckload of anime and manga my friend dumped on my head just before leaving to join the military, a series i've been meaning to watch for some time now called Ergo Proxy is one of them.  I've actually had enough time this week to get through about 8 episodes of it so far, and I'm already quite impressed.  You'll probably hear more about my thoughts on it over on ArizUtaku sometime after I finish it, and probably even on Facebook with what I've decided is going to be my traditional note on the best of anime for the year.  I've also decided to start up on yet another series I've been wanting to watch for some time now via bit torrent download (for now of course, until I decide to purchase it legally) called Planets.  From what I've heard of it, it really sounds like something I'd just fall head over heals for.  Also on tap, if I have enough time that is, is probably going to be me working on finally seeing past episode one of Eve no Jikan, which should be easy enough considering it's only 6 episodes long at 15 minutes each.  Finishing the last 5 episodes of Monster is also something I've been meaning to do for a while now (yeah, my status on that series hasn't changed from the last time I mentioned it in this blog unfortunately.... ;_; ) but we'll see.  In some ways, considering it's licensed now, I've actually thought about just finishing it via DVDs or it's airtime on SyFy, but we'll see.

The holiday season is probably going to be one of the more humbling ones this year though.  Christmas and New Years is always my favorite holidays/general time of the year, just simply because it's a time which seems to have this really great feeling about it like no other.  It's just a really relaxing time of the year where there are all sorts of beautiful decorations and lights, peacful and relaxing music, and just all around good feelings.  There are those parts that I don't like about if of course, mostly because this time of year also tends to bring out the worst in people as much as it does bring out the best in them.  It's also very stressful to have to go through all the trouble getting all those pretty decorations and lights up, as well as budget out certain finances for the much less important gift giving aspects of it.  This year I think I might enjoy more than most years though simply based off the fact that I am going to pretty much have to focus on all those more positive aspects of it that make me love it so much.  I unfortunately never have enough money any year of Christmas to get into the more gift giving part of it, which is something I think is such a terrible travesty that I don't get that opportunity very much.  But even in the gift recieving department, not quite as important to me as to participate in giving them but still somewhat enjoyable in it's own right, will be very, very humble this year, seeing as how our family is pretty dry on the finances as well.  That and I've decided that this year I'm kind of not really seeming nearly as much into the season as I typically tend to be, which has left me not really having much of a desire to go and put up all of our pretty Christmas stuff.  Which pretty much means that if I don't do it, it at least will not get put up for a while, and even then we probably won't have any roof lights this year.  But as I've said, none of that really matters as much as it sometimes is made out to be believed to be.  I always enjoy the part of Christmas that I enjoy so much no matter what, and this year I'll have mostly that to just sit back and enjoy.

So that pretty much wraps most of what my break will be like.  Everything else in the life of BroEl is mostly pretty much similar to what I've posted about before, and grades are yet to come out, so I'll probably be around with another post when next semester starts up again to talk more about all of that.  But for now I am off to thrive in the grandness of doing absolutely nothing. 8-)
