FFFFFUUUUUCCCCKKKKKK!!!!!!!!

*panting*

Now that I've let it all out, I will explain my frustration.

The Naruto series has been lisenced.

As a result, my BitTorrent seeds no longer work, as they have been disabled from my tracker and I accidently deleted the seeds when I installed my newer version of BitTorrent. But it looks like I'll have to wait awhile before those idiots at YTV release a very poorly translated and horribly censored version of it later in the year. That too may take a while, as Cartoon Network will probably get it first. At least I have high quality subs of episodes 1-50 and 101-119. In the mean time, I have to wait a horribly long time for what will inevitably be a craptacular dub on a substandard TV Network.

Anyways, I'll have to live with it. Naruto's so popular with fans, this was bound to happen. Here's some fans suggestions for some voices.

Kirby Morrow as Kakashi? That would rock. Scott McNeil as Shikamaru? Uh, I'm not too sure on that one. Damn, they've got a lot of big names, don't get your hopes up guys. Then again, it's a large company with a lot of resources, and fans have been pretty vocal about what they want, so who knows? It might turn out to be a good dub.

As for other aspects of my life, they're going pretty well. I'm on my reading week right now, so I've managed to get a fair bit of stuff done, going shopping and cleaning my room. I e-mailed a prof at my campus about helping him with his research in the summer as I have a genuine interest in discovering the secrets of Betta Splendens (that's Siamese Fighting Fish for all you untrendy folks). Most of my friends have their reading week next week, but I'll be able to hang out with them on the weekend. Also got the book "Geisha, A Life" by Mineko Iwasaki, it's a great read and I recommend it to anyone with an interest in Japan or Geisha, or who just wants a good story.

I'm starting to think I have way too much stuff in my room. I threw out some of my things, but I still need to go through my Closet of Doom, which I don't feel like doing right now. Also could do some writing or drawing, which I also don't feel like doing at present. I'm going to do some reading a studying though. Finish Geisha, a Life, read my brochures and do my notes for Animal Behaviour.

I feel better now, so bye for now.
