I know this list is a neverending pain in the ass for you. I
stopped updating it. I will update my other accounts instead, so
this section will stop growing.
I'm not only obsessed with oriental stuff. Everything that has to
do with nature, technologies, science, arts, painting especially,
comics, fantasy and rpgs, psychologies,
culture jamming, maths and
philosophy catches my attention. I'm a true eclectic, meaning i am
curious about everything, but i rarely go deep into a topic. I'm
the typical wikipedia reader, take it or leave it.
BOOKS:
(january 2012:currently reading sex at dawn and it's really
interesting!)
I have this terrible habit: I keep buying and starting books i
never finish. June 2011: I have started to read something like
10-15 books and i still have to finish all of them...i choose what
to read depending on my mood. both fiction and non fiction are
welcome, if the subjects triggers me.
Pain can be a real annoying distraction, so reading has become a
bit more difficult in the last months, but i fight to keep doing
what i love.

As you noticed, i purposely mixed asian manga and anime, and comics
and cartoons. there's no distinction to me, none of them is better
than the other. So if you're some sort of a proud fanatic otaku
that get angry anytime a "prophane" calls "comic" a manga, I'm
definitely not your kinda girl. I know they're different, but hey,
there are more useful ways to spend your time and energies,
dude!
