This is my world where I sporadically post about things that happen in my life, surveys, and extremely random things. And oh, I do mean sporadically.
My name is Kasa (well, not really, but it's been my nickname here for so long that it's basically become a part of my identity haha. I also go by Aly, but you can call me whatever you want), I'm 23, and I'm a first year in graduate school studying school psychology.
I tend to hyperfixate on things for long periods of time and then wholly forget about them, and I dabble in the arts of video editing and occasionally drawing and writing.
I'm super lame and kind of unsociable, but if you can look past that, maybe we can be friends?

1. How long have you been an anime fan?
When i was younger, i watched Pokemon, Yugioh, Digimon, and FREAKIN BEYBLADE, Y'ALL.
Of course, i didn't know that those were animes until much later when i discovered 4Kids.
2. What was your first anime?
My first anime that i knew was anime was Mew Mew Power/Tokyo Mew Mew. :D Only i didn't know it immediately... So i guess it was actually Naruto.
OH and i also discovered a channel that showed FUNimation stuff part time and started watching Fruits Basket, Spiral, and Case Closed. Yeah. I miss that channel.. D:
3. What was your first manga?
Again, Tokyo Mew Mew. xD
But i also picked up a volume of Cardcaptor Sakura around the same time. COMMENCE CONFUSION BECAUSE I HAD ACCIDENTLY PICKED UP THE SECOND SERIES INSTEAD OF THE FIRST -sob-
4. What is your favourite anime? Why?
Haha it usually changes once i finish a series. Overall my favorite is probably either Code Geass 'cause IT'S AWESOME AND HAS MECHAS or Higurashi because it's so amazingly violent but heartwarming later on, but i also really love Katekyo Hitman Reborn because it goes from being completely ridiculous to completely epic. And lately i've been taking a liking to Gosick. Victorique (Victorica?) is so adorable. That and i'm awesome at figuring out the mysteries. >:D
5. What is your favourite manga? Why?
KITCHEN PRINCESS. It's adorable. Or Death Note 'cause it's Death Note. :D (i like the manga more than the anime)
And lately i've been reading Liar Game which is so full of mindscrew that it's awesome. And apparently i'm a good judge of people because i've been able to tell who's lying every time now. :D or maybe it's just that obvious
6. What is your favourite manga genre? Why?
Manga genre-wise i like the romantic comedies because it combines the best of both worlds! 8D -shot-
Anime genre-wise i tend to like shounen more because in shounen manga i'm always like "WAIT WHO DID THAT WUT" when there are battles. Oh and I also like drama and (romantic) comedy.
7. How much have your manga tastes changed since you first started watching anime?
Shoujo to Shounen, i guess.
BUT I DUNNO FOR SURE BECAUSE I STILL WATCH A LOT OF SHOUJO...
8. What anime/manga have you been obsessed with over the years? Do you still like it?
Air and Kanon. :D I loved them so much when i first saw them that i went out and bought the DVDs so that i could make amvswatch them whenever i want to. I still love them. xD
I will never get over the fact that they were hentai games beforehand, though. D:
9. Do you prefer more mainstream manga or less popular manga?
I read a bit of both, so i really have no preference.
10. What is your favourite anime/manga character?
;w; don't make me choose.
...I guess if i have to choose i'd have to go with Edward Elric because he's epic. And short.
11. Do you have a anime/manga crush? If so, who?
I used to adore Riku from Kingdom Hearts. LIKE SOSOSO MUCH YOU GUYS DON'T EVEN KNOW.
Like he ended up in my horrible horrible YouTube username. (THE ONLY THING I CAN SAY ABOUT THAT USERNAME IS THAT AT LEAST IT'S MEMORABLE.)
Now i just think he's cool. I've moved on. HELLO VANITAS ♥
I tend to fangirl over video game characters more than anime/manga ones. xD
12. Do you have a favourite anime/manga pairing? If not, make something up (you might suddenly fall in love with it!)
KIRSOR. Ask Den-chan about it. ;D
I also love Namora (Sora/Namine). AND KH HAS A MANGA SO IT COUNTS.
13. Do you like reading/writing fanfics?
I used to attempt to write fanfics.
I regret it.
I do enjoy reading them, though. As long as it's got a decent storyline and good writing i'll usually keep up with it even if it's alternate universe or the characters are completely out of character. xD
I also read TV Tropes. Which apparently makes me super nerdy. BUT THEY'RE ADDICTING -sob- This pretty much explains it all: http://xkcd.com/609/
14. Do you like drawing/looking at fanart? If so, for what manga, or does it not matter?
I like drawing, so yes. xD I don't draw too much fanart though, actually.
And i occassionally look at fanart... only it's kind of hard to do that when you avoid deviantArt at all costs. IT TRIES TO GIVE ME VIRUSES, GUYS.
15. What is your favourite song in an anime (it can be background music or OP/ED songs)?
"Dear You" - Yuduki. It's actually from the Higurashi game but WHATEVER.
I have no idea what it's saying but it sounds pretty. :D
16. What is your least favourite anime/manga? Why?
Kodocha. I think that's the name. It was one of those animes i discovered on that channel with Fruits Basket.
ALL I REMEMBER IS THAT SHE LIKED TO HIT PEOPLE WITH A GIANT HAMMER AND IT WAS OBNOXIOUS. D:
17. What is your favourite video game? Why?
The World Ends With You. HA YOU THOUGHT I WOULD SAY KINGDOM HEARTS, DIDN'T YOU?
Because it has such an awesome story and i love the battle system. :D
AND THE CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT MAKES ME HAPPY. Yay Neku.
18. What is your favourite kind of videogame? Why?
RPG because i like killing bad guys/monsters. :D
19. What is your favourite anime movie?
Howl's Moving Castle.
And i swear it's not because i was at a friend's house once and we watched the dub version that also had really delayed subtitles.
-Howl's castle appears- A battleship?
20. Was this quiz fun? :D
Yup.
I'M EASY TO PLEASE AND CAN'T PICK FAVORITES, GUYS. D:
I'M SUCH A PROCRASTINATOR YOU GUYS.
I'VE ONLY DONE THE MAPS PACKET AND THE IDS FOR THE FIRST CHAPTER SO FAR.
I might go ahead and do the first essay tomorrow though. Not tonight though since it's like 1 AM whut when did that happen.
Ew and then i still have to do AP English stuff. I'll probably do that after the APUSH work though since i'll have longer. (APUSH stuff is due at the beginning of August while the English stuff isn't due until the first day of school.)
I mean, i probably wouldn't be having a problem with doing it all, but my sister keeps dumping her daughter with me and expecting me to babysit all the time. I'm getting paid, sure, but it's impossible to try and do anything with her around because she's too freakin' adorable. D:
On the plus side, I preordered Falling Up's new album which i should get in the mail in a week or two or three.
SO I AM HOPING THAT THAT WILL BE FABULOUS OR ELSE I WILL HAVE NOTHING TO MAKE ME HAPPY FOR THE REST OF THE SUMMER.
Oh, and there're two things i want to enter on YouTube but i'm not sure if i have a chance at either. BUT I'M NOT GOING TO GO INTO THAT BECAUSE NO ONE PROBABLY CARES. D:
Yay pointless posts. I might do them more often just 'cause.
AND THANKS FOR 88 SUBSCRIBERS, GUYS. IT'S SYMMETRICAL. DEATH THE KID APPROVES. -has started watching Soul Eater-
I'M SURE NO ONE NOTICED MY ABSENCE, BUT I'M GOING TO TALK ABOUT IT ANYWAY.
My house got struck by lightning!
Thankfully, the damage was minimum. It only fried a few things and we're all okay~ The surge protectors kicked in when it happened and saved a lot of stuff.
However, one of the things that did get fried was something that connected to our internet modem... So that's why i haven't been around.
IT WAS AWFUL GUYS. I HAD TO READ BOOKS AND PLAY VIDEOGAMES AND DO HOMEWORK.
-shot-
But yeah. It's all fixed up now, so i have a lot of catching up to do!
Anyway, there's only one week left of school! (Well, technically two, but i'm exempting all of my final exams) -cheers- But summer is kinda gonna suck. I have soooo much summer work to do. WHY AM I TAKING 2 AP CLASSES, AGAIN? oh right. 'cause they're college credits. guuuh.
5 ESSAYS FOR AP US HISTORY AND 2 FOR AP ENGLISH, GUYS.
So if you read the post i made a few days ago(viewable below), you'll know that i did a project in art class with a comic book character yaddah yaddah.
I worked insanely hard on it, got a 100, AND my teacher hung it up on the bulletin board as a focal point for all of the other ones.
WELL GUESS WHAT.
Some fscking jerk scribbled on it. IN PEN.
i mean seriously. what the hell. we're in high school.
I'M SO MAD THAT I ACTUALLY SPELLED 'SERIOUSLY' CORRECTLY.
I mean, once i get it back officially, i can always just photoshop the scribble out (even though it was in a shaded area.. ;w;)... but it's the whole principle of the matter!
kfjdskjdsjdskj i hate people.
My art teacher says she's going to get the principal to go through the security camera footage to figure out who did it. So, JUSTICE WILL BE SERVED! eventually.
... i needed to vent. D:
Anyway, i'm going to go bite the head off of a chocolate bunny and then probably get started on my English project. buhbye guys
