I'm SomeGuy, 29 years old, residing in Vancouver, BC, Canada. I've studied English Literature, Chinese Martial Arts, and am currently pursuing careers in writing - possibly even in the anime industry itself.
And I work for this site.
And you should be watching Beck: Mongolian Chop Squad.
Or watching Ranma 1/2.
Or learning about the Shinsengumi.
Or planning to visit Vancouver, The Best Place On Earth (actual marketing motto).
Here at the "Smallville" page, I have my personal blog where I'll post about anything and everything. If ya need me or otherwise need to know anything from/about me, here's where I'll be.
If you're really looking for my more professional, site-type stuff, you wanna head over my "Metropolis" world.

Yeah. It was gold. Loved it. Everyone can now stop reminding me to "watch carefully" for that pencil scene now.
Ended up watching it with my parents, by the way. Saw that, then had dinner, then grabbed some foodstuffs at Superstore. Made a good day out of it all, I'd say.
While cleaning up the basement earlier in the week, I had the last episodes of Avatar playing on the TV. My brother had no idea what was going on, but I filled him in as best I could as it went on.
Last night, He saw the first four episodes of the first season followed by the very last three of the season.
It's a thing I do with him. I watch stuff on the TV while he's in the room, he'll generally be occupied with his laptop and kinda half-watch whatever I'm watching (if I claim the TV first).
So, I had a craving for Avatar. And like always, he's kinda half-interested, chuckles at certain points, asks me to fill him in on things . . .
After the 4th episode (the one on Kiyoshi Island), he said to me, "go to the episode where they get to the Northern Water Tribe!"
(Snagged.)
So we watched the final episodes. They're gigantic displays of awesome, so he was impressed enough.
Whether this'll make him watch it on his own, we'll have to see . . . but hey, it worked for Evangelion way back when, so never say never . . .
So that was Saturday.
Today, I feel like I might actually just go out and see The Dark Knight. Everyone else I know locally has already seen it, so I'm stuck. And as much as I hate seeing movies by myself, I'm just taking way too long for a movie I really need to see.
Still waiting on news about Anime Evolution and which buildings at UBC are actually booked so we have a better sense of "where" the con will actually be. Other than that . . .
I've been wanting to play with my bullwhip a little lately.
I really want an actual Kangaroo-hide bullwhip even though those cost hundreds of dollars.
Read the newest chapter of Beck finally. Love that series . . . and so should you!
Heard about some other damn dumb stupid thing with people, felt disappointed about it in general all around.
Discussed the topic of nipples in manga and whether Love Hina did or did not show them (it did not).
Thought a little personally on the subject of yukata and cousins.
Started posting in the Shinsengumi thread at the AE forums in rhyming verse for no particular reason.
