A smiling esper,

From the Organization,

Sounds enigmatic.

Hello everybody! No, I'm not dead. I'm extremely sorry for the excessively long delay in my updates, but I'm back in school now and therefore have been in a time crunch. This, coupled with my computer being as stable as a batch of element 117, has prevented me from updating with any semblance of speed. Seriously, I was typing up my latest batch of poems, and took a break in order to eat lunch. When I came back, I found that my computer had crashed, and I lost the next six haiku in this series. Yes, I know I should have saved the bloody things earlier, but we live in 2014, people. Technology should be reliable enough to let me enjoy a ham sandwich without dying on me. Anyways, school has also put a damper on my anime-watching ability, but I have been able to find a more... Constructive outlet for my small obsession. I have been doing anime reviews recently, in addition to my typical movie reviews, although I'm putting the anime ones on a new blog, which you can find on my profile page. The first installment? Space Dandy.

In other news, I haven't been able to pursue my other interest, baduk, due to my damn computer, causing my inactivity on the OGS server. However, while my online rank will undoubtedly continue to slide back, I am undertaking independent studies,typically trying to improve my joseki repertoire. I hope to be around a three kyu by Christmas, but I don't know if I'll have the time to jump up that far.

Once again, I apologize for the absurdly long delay, but I'll try to get back on schedule soon. Also, sorry if you wanted Mikuru's haiku first, but I don't really remember it right now, so she'll be next... Cheers.
