  1. Monday is such a strangely depressing day.
  2. Absolutely, and you'll get something tangible for your money that will give you enjoyment for a whole lot longer than a drug fix, and won't ruin your health.
  3. From your comments I think you'll like Wedding Peach as it has most of the things you mention. It's called Wedding Peach for a reason. It's rather 'wedding themed' but don't let that put you off it's got a decent storyline which is set against a large backstory that is slowly revealed. Like all Magical Girl series it's made up of a series of battles with the Bad Guys or their agents and the three girls each have their own Transformation sequence and dramatic Special Attacks. The individual plots are a good mix of amusing incidents and quite serious subjects. I spill no spoilers, but some things are not quite what they appear to be.
  4. It's always nice when your birthday cards and presents arrive on your actually birthday rather than the day before or after. Happy Birthday . (for whenever it was)
  5. I can relate to that. My mother was often complaining about how much I spent on buying anime DVDs, merch and going to anime conventions. I pointed out to her that as I didn't smoke or drink my total monthly anime spend was far less than I'd spend in a month on cigarettes and visits to the pub. This muted her protests a bit, but the real issue was that anime was Japanese and she didn't like the Japanese.
  6. A good suggestion, there isn't one locally but I'll check out any I find while I'm out and about.
  7. And while your parents might not approve of what you spend your money on there's not a lot they can do about it because it's your money that you've earned, not pocket money that they've given you.
  8. If you liked the first series you'll probably like the other two. Series 1 & 2 are I think the better ones, series 3 while being a bit repetitive in background story terms does have a lot more in terms of intrigue and scheming on the part of the various factions in the school. The third series gives a lot a insight into her character and why she acts as she does. In the third series we find out a lot more about his background and early life which explains a lot about how he acts. He's quite an interesting person and not quite as nice as he appears and is quite willing to use people for his own ends. This isn't the sort of series I usually watch and while I wouldn't say I enjoyed watching it I'm glad I did because it was an interesting story.
  9. That's so sad, I think the worst thing you can do is rob a child of their childhood. I'll always be grateful to my parents for letting me have a childhood, although once I became a teenager my mother would make the occasional remark that I ought to behave more appropriately for my age, my father on the other hand wasn't too bothered about it. Ah yes, catch-up time - with the added advantage of having money to do the things you wanted to do.
  10. The transition from "teenager" to "adult" can be difficult. People suddenly have expectations of different behaviours and attitudes from you. So just take comfort from this wonderful quote from C.S.Lewis: “When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.”
