My apartment is weird ~ it traps the cool air inside most of the time. When it's hot outside, it's still somewhat cool inside (at least cooler than outside). When it's cold outside, it's sometimes even colder inside, provided I don't turn the heater on. I don't know if I should be happy. It's nice to be cool inside the house on summer, but it's really a drag on winter. The heater doesn't help that much in the beginning -- the temperature inside the house gets warmer very VERY slowly, which usually leaves me snuggling inside my warm goose down comforter. Anyway, it's 81° F outside and I'm so glad I'm home. I'm finally able to chill out and enjoy the rest of the evening; sheltered from the sun.

I just realized when I took a shower earlier today ~ I can't stand cold water when I take a shower. Despite the outside weather, I always use warm/hot water. It's been a habit since I was born, I think. Even in Indonesia, which is a tropical country and the weather is constantly 90° F (32° C), I rarely use cold water. But after all, the cold water in Indonesia is not as cold as in USA. The cold water in USA is freezing!

Miri ~ I got my yaoi anime collection from Soyokaze Fansubs. They have a lot of yaoi titles ^^ Enjoy them! *wink wink* Oh, Miri, where did you get Kizuna? I've been looking around for them without result.

Ne, it seems that more and more anime titles are licensed lately. What a pity.. I would rather buy fansubs than commercial titles. The quality is very similar, if not almost the same, and most fansubs include background informations & notes that commercial subs never do. And of course, the ever popular and inconsiderably long commercial advertisements are just too annoying -_-
