Welcome to my world.

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.

Well, finally got that over with . . .

After having it sitting in the house for almost a month, I finally opened up my Final Fantasy XIII and started playing.

Story could end well. There's promise. Definitely feels like everything's running on autopilot a little more than I'd prefer, and yet it's not so easy that you won't die if you aren't paying attention. Really, I blame the 5-star battle system that grades you based on how quickly you finish your battles (with alleged rewards of better drops). I guess it's one way to keep you focused.

Also, I hate that I'm totally getting a kick out of Vanille. I know that's exactly why she's in there and I feel a little guilty for falling for her/it. That's a shame.

Anyway, yeah, so far so good. Let's see how it plays out for the next couple months, I guess.

Also, I feel like I could smell something burning in the apartment tonight. Couldn't tell where it was coming from. Pretty sure it wasn't from my suite.

I can't afford to have things burning down. It better have been from outside . . .
