Hey guys! So, Remyfool @ The Lily Garden and D @ D Talks Anime nominated me centuries ago for the One Lovely Blog Award. I am inexcusably late in doing this post and I deeply apologise for the delay!
Remy runs a wonderful blog focusing on Yuri anime and manga and is such an awesome person overall.
D has some great anime reviews which are so detailed and precise, you cannot help but admire them.
You should totally check out both the blogs for some amazing anime content. You won’t regret it!

7 Things About Me
1. I can’t stop listening to BTS (it’s a kpop band). They are some really talented individuals and despite being such huge international celebrities, they are so humble! Basically, I’ve found a new obsession. and it’s slowly ruining my life *sobs*
2. English is not my first language. I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this before, but yeah, I have bilingual abilities hehe *winks*.
3. I love singing. I have a decent enough voice which doesn’t shatter glass (yet), so I think my neighbors don’t really mind my 24/7 singing sessions. (yes I don’t stop singing even in my sleep). In fact, I’m still singing right at this moment! *evil laugh*
4. I am a huge procrastinator. I even procrastinate on the things I enjoy! I sometimes procrastinate on writing posts as well, even though I love writing them. (I’m so sorry!)
5. I know I’ve said it a zillion times, but I am incredibly indecisive. And it is VERY annoying. I’ve kind of started to accept it as a part of my identity now.
6. I would love to learn Japanese some day. I’ve heard it’s pretty tough to learn, but who doesn’t want to watch anime without subtitles?! That’s not the only reason though. I think it is a very sweet sounding and beautiful language.
7. I’m running out of things to share. So I guess I’ll stop now.
(You don’t have to do the post if you don’t want to. And I’m sorry if you’ve been nominated before.)

I had heard it takes 2-3 years, but ten years a long time! I just want to be fluent in speaking the language, not so much reading and writing, but if I get a chance to learn both, I definitely will.
Thanks! I do seem to have become more motivated thanks to all the support I get from wonderful bloggers like you. I hope you catch up as well! 🙂

TG excels at cligghangers and dramatics, much like Sherlock. But the second season isn’t terrible, just not as good as the first.
True, but I still think they should have revealed it. It seems so impossible and since the show revolves around logic, these kind of things need to be explained. Unless the creators also don’t have a clue how he did it…
LikeLiked by 1 person
Ah…it’s one of THOSE shows. And yeah, I’m gonna watch season two. I have to now.
You have a good point! Sherlock really is based on logic, and it does need to be explained. Otherwise it feels like magic, rather than something that happened.
…I bet that’s it. I bet Moffat and Gatiss are just as clueless about how he did it as we are.
