The Semester Break That Does Not Feel Like A Semester Break But Still Has The Essence Of A Semester Break

I've been having my semester break for about three weeks already and it doesn't really feel like a semester break but it still feels like one. Because we still have to work on our short film project and submit it every Wednesday and at the same time I'm playing games and reading manga. Now every night is Dota2 night with Kai and the others. I'm catching up with the manga I haven't been checking on every week and trying to catch up with the anime that I'm in the middle of watching. Still every day I'd face my assignment and stress myself out. When the next semester comes, I have a feeling it's gonna be busy and free at the same time like now.

Last week I attended the Bald On, Wax Off for Cancer and got my hair shaved with Wayne. Yay. End.

RANT

As we know, most anime are adaptions of a manga or novel series.

There are four results that come out of anime adaptions:
1) The anime adaption is good/great.
2) The anime adaption is okay.
3) The anime adaption sucks!
and rarely,
4) The anime adaption is excellent!

In recent time, most of the anime adaptions suck. Directors who take on to make an anime adaption tend to change parts of the original story from the manga or novel to "suit" animation tastes or fit the allocated anime episode time slots. Which destroys it. (Oh and most directors now pick ecchi mangas and novels because there are a lot of hungry insecure teenage boys out there)

One case which caused a lot of anger and hatred in me is my favorite series, Mirai Nikki. I couldn't bother to watch the anime because many years ago when the manga ended, I tried to get other people to read it and spark interest in them but because most people don't read manga, they shun my recommendation and when the anime came out, they became instant fans, which made me really pissed off.

But what am I on to right now? Thing is, there are differences between the Mirai Nikki manga and the Mirai Nikki anime. Out of all the things, one thing pisses me off a lot, and it was the change of Gasai Yuno's character. From the psychopathic murderous girl who loves Yukiteru, the anime portrayed her as a yandere who loves Yukiteru, thought the two characteristics sound the same, they are not.

Probably what pisses me off most is that fans label Yuno as the face of yandere. The anime Yuno's level of yandere is mediocre! Sure she is over-possessive but does not cut to be the face of yandere (I can't believe Wikipedia also used Yuno as a "good example"). In my opinion, Yuno is more psychotic than yandere.

Basically it all comes to me, hating Mirai Nikki anime fans because they treat Yuno as the queen of yandere. There are many others who are better yanderes than Yuno but because there's no anime adaption, they are not known. Bollocks.

Hard Disk Stress

Yeah, it's April Fool's Day but what happened is no joke.

I have a Seagate GoFlex external hard disk. I bought this brand because it was said to be great and works on both Mac and PC. But I once had a problem, a huge portion of files from my Assignments folder was corrupted when I accidentally pulled out the hard disk without ejecting it. I manage to save those files but there are still fragments of the corrupted files lingering in it which is only visible on my Mac and not visible on the PC.

Just today, all my Photoshop files for my final assignment due this coming Wednesday disappeared for no reason. I don't remember having any corrupt files or anything. I tried whatever solutions that does not require downloading some software but to no avail. On my PC, the folder is visible but empty, completely empty, properties show that it's 0KB, no hidden files, nothing. On my Mac, the folder is missing instead, there's a System Volume Information folder. I tried to see what's in it but also, nothing. What the hell happened?

This hard disk is almost full already so the new hard disk I plan to get will be something else. I'm sick of having problems with my hard disk. A hard disk is supposed to back-up your files but when the back-up files need a back-up, then it's pointless. I was so upset and stressed that it felt hard to breath. This is seriously fucked up.
