These weeks have been rather distressing, without any new episode from the few TV shows I was still watching, namely Heroes, Lost, Ghost Whisperer, South Park or Family Guy. Rome was also over a while ago.

Thus, my movie resources are dwindling. I’ve begun reviewing my old collections of Disney animations, but after having seen them several times, they don’t look as appealing as they once did.

I am, however, glad that The 4400 will be reaired beginning with the 17th of this month and it seems we’ll also be having Weeds back on the 31st of July.

I can hardly wait.

I have recently finished watching just about every animation film produced by Studio Ghibli and, as expected, I enjoyed every second of them (thanks again to miahi for the tips).

Not only did they have a captivating story, they also enticed me with the way they were drawn – every colour, every detail, every combination of static and dynamic imagery. And, somehow, a few of them reminded me of the magnificent world of Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura, the RPG that I can no doubt call my favourite game of all times, with the same intriguing combination of emerging technology and powerful yet hidden magic.

Following the same idea from my previous In My Pocket post, today I’ve bumped into another kind of cute pet replicas of sorts.

Perfect PetZzz sells some pretty toy dogs and cats that look quite realistic and even breathe (thanks to a battery, of course).

Sometimes I wonder if – like dogs, for example – knives should be killed when they taste human blood for the first time.

I have a new small and sexy backpack which I’ve begun carrying around with me everywhere I go. That implies, of course, that I always have around tons of useless things, books, a bottle of water (finally!), my mp3 player and my digicam. Oh, and it also has a shiny Ursus Urban Music Party trinket.

I won’t get 10 in the calculus test paper I had last week. But there’s more ahead. Must learn, learn, learn, learn, learn. Yes, I want to finish this year w/o having to go to the exams sessions – for the ARTMania fest, of course.

On the same topic, Jen & I finally managed to go to Diverta Plaza and get ourselves tickets for the Tori Amos concert on the 13th of July. On this occasion, I noticed how pretty that place is – they have painted roads with marks for lanes and crossings, as well as shiny street lanterns.

And talking about Plaza, I also managed to go there with DarkWidow and have a delicious Frappucinno Vanilla and a muffin at Starbucks. Adorable.

While watching some Disney animation on Cartoon Network, I accidentally saw a commercial that simply made me WANT something. Badly.

What exactly? Well, InMyPocket collectibles. The kitties, to be more precise. Kitty families, too.

So, I want friends in more civilised countries, where they sell those little things. Any ideas?

And yes, I absolutely love miniature things, toys or simple decorative replicas of …stuff.
