My inner child wears a pocket protector.

Back in my day, we had no tags! We had to use 'Memories'!
So I've changed my layout to accommodate for tags. Have begun the lengthy process of tagging my entries, but am nowhere close to done. Because I enjoy organizing (but not cleaning or tidying up, for some reason), I like watching my tag cloud grow as I do so.

Okay, kids:



YOU READ THEM. YOU TOTALLY READ THEM, ADMIT IT.

The bookstore was having a sale and they had a shitload of Animorphs books for the equivalent of US$1 each. How could I resist? Now I have like 9, which is good because I forget how they only take an hour to read. And they're dark too. The darkness of the series has always been a factor of attraction, but I'm rereading and am pleasantly surprised to rediscover cannibalism, junior high kids who rejoice in killing (just Rachel, actually), gory details of slaughter, and contemplations on the impersonal cruelty of nature. And the spoilers on the Wikipedia entry tell of more! I want. I want all 50-whatever volumes! I can't believe the series went into 50-whatever volumes. I gave up in the early 30s.

And also relying on payphones and using chatrooms that have a character limit BAHAHAHAHAHAHAilovethenineties.

Apparently quite a number of them were ghostwritten, which -- I guess -- doesn't surprise me, and doesn't really bother me either.

WHO WAS YOUR FAVORITE?

Back then I liked Tobias because he was angsty and had the hots for Rachel, and Marco because I thought he was funny. Now though, I like Ax and I just want to slap Marco, except when he's being practical. I love how Ax is a mouthpiece for contemplations on the human race, offering insights into anything from animal rights to TV commercials to, of course, the cinnamon bun.

You know what I also love? THE SOUND EFFECTS.
TSEW! TSEW!
TSEEEEEEEEEER!
RRROOOOOAAAAAARRRR!
They're like one step away from multiple exclamation marks.

Who was yours?
