Back to School

So I've decided to go back to school for what I don't know but at least I'm going. I decided to take a speech and a psychology class this term. My classes are only 8 weeks long and two classes are worth 6 credits so this qualifies as full time and so I should get my full GI Bill payment. Which will really help me out. Now I just have to deal with the whole going back to school anxiety of worrying about assignments being due and doing lots of research and also writing papers in the correct format.

Happy New Year!!!

Well 2010 was a pretty interesting year for me...lots of chaos, started off okay with a deployment to Guam, then getting back and dodging bill collectors, but then my baby girl Oriana was born adding the 3rd to my ever growing Smith clan, and things all seemed okay for a bit. Then I went and got a Vasectomy after deciding 3 kiddies is enough for me, and ended up in more pain than I thought possible from a simple procedure that is done every day for thousands if not millions of already happy customers, and then towards the end Dad almost dying from congestive heart failure, getting a stint put in, than getting some random new pain in his right leg (heart unrelated at this point), he went back into the hospital, and now is in a nursing home waiting for other docs to figure out what's wrong with him. So, uh.. yah, it's been busy. (and this is not to mention all the other huge projects I had going on, like staining the deck, building a fort for the kids in the backyard, having the truck break down numerous times, and then moving around at work from office to office, shop to shop, just to get settled into one work environment and then to be up and moved to another, what a pain).

So anyway, resolutions? I thought of a bunch just yesterday after struggling to even care about making any for the last week or so since Christmas....but then I was soon to forget today. I was thinking that one of them would be to try an be more optimistic and get a little back to my creative roots, maybe join a club, form a club, or just get people into anime, or if they're already into anime, get them to watch some with me. Or something like that. Either way I do know I need to come on here and post more updates, especially after I watch more cool anime shows, buy more cool figures, or do anything anime related. I think maybe I'll go back to school as well (but I know if I do that I'll definitely be more absent from my blog or my overall internet presence) seeing as my GI Bill is getting ready to run out, cant believe they only give you 10 yrs to use that damn thing, and I wasted all of but about 14months of it.. good lord I could've had a degree ages ago, but alas I was just fine working at the time. Oh well....enough complaining.. that should be another resolution, haha. Happy New Year!!! I hope this one is fairly uneventful, but who my kidding? Fuck it! Keep Rocking On People!!!

Updates Smupdates

Where in the world have I been? Well you of all people should know. I'm right here, just busy as always. I've been watching Eden of the East and just started Sore No Woto (spelling).. Eden is a pretty intrigueing show and keeps me watching and impatiently awaiting the next episode (which at this point is the last episode) and then after finishing the series I can then move on to the movies as they are released. Its rather odd to here of an anime that only has like 11 episodes and then goes straight into have (I think 3 so far) movies made from it. But oh well, kinda a cool concept if you ask me.

I have realized that I must be some kind of closet shoppaholic, cuz I haven't really bought anything lately..namely electronics, toys, or other anime merch.....AND IT'S FREAKING KILLING ME!!!!!!
I need some more hard drives, cuz I'm running out of room on mine (and the lord knows I hate to delete data for fear that I may need it again someday).. I'd like a new projector (preferably one that's high def with capable 3D compatibility, but mostly just high def)... I really really really want a new smartphone... HTC Evo comes to mind from all my months of nagging leading up to its release and then now months after that looking into other alternatives such as the G2 or the Epic, or Vibrant....I'd also like to get some sort of new media home computer to hook directly up to my living room high def DLP tv.. so that I can stop using my laptop thru HDMI to stream Netflix, Hulu, Crackle, and a wide variety of other online tv (since we've recently had out Satelite TV shut off to save money (and also to keep the kids from getting addicted to silly Nick Jr and Sprout shows 24/7) and the same with out land telephone line which we really didn't need cuz we do have cell phones (even if our current carrier has really sucky coverage in my area (even with the cheesy GPS/Internet cell phone signal boosting device that they gave us for free in hopes of keeping us as customers, which really isn't working too well right now). But anyway, I know that this world is a material one, and that we are not supposed to dwell on such objects, but it's really hard when you have such an affliction as I do. My most recent purchase being a laptop (the one that I'm currently typing all this on) was bought back in Feb this year, and curbed my thirst for a bit (but it was mainly to replace my previous one which had died on me (and of course I was able to revive it about a month ago cuz I'm cool like that) and right before I had deployed to Guam for a few months and needed a skyping tool, so I got one with Bluray capability and the WiFis and the bigger GB's..haha. But now I want more and am being torn to bits by my own self consciousness, my wife, and my overwhelming sense of "gotta do whats right" but still is not that easy..... I really want to just get a new credit card and go crazy on Newegg.com, Tigerdirect, Geeks.com, and some new cell carrier just to quench my hunger for "things".. oh yah and I've got a kegerator for my bar recently and it needs parts too...oh and beer to go in it.. damn I've got issues.. LMAO!!!! fuck off!!!!!!!.. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!! JKJKJKJKJKJKJK

Hows that for an update!!!

Gimme that Good Ol' Fashioned Anime Untraviolence!

Rin - Daughters of Mnemosyne -

All I can really say is, "Its about Friggin Time!". That we've got some of that ol'skool ultraviolence that attracted soo many of us freaks to the anime subculture. Although there are soo many good anime shows out there today (new and old), there just something that makes those sick and twisted shows draw viewers to them like a moth to a flame. Not to mention that if the storytelling is enthrawling at the same time, its almost guarenteed to be a hit with us horror and pscho-thriller fans.. Well Rin does all that and then some. I just wished that it was longer.. but not really. There's always a nice charm to those gruesome thrillers that leaves you thinking omg I've just watched that, it was screwed up, and I must be just as screwed up for enjoying it.. HAAAHAAAAHAAAA.. Check it out!

And here's just a lil snapshot of what you can expect to see.. but you'll have to watch it to get the true feeling of the jacked-uppedness of this show.. Heh

Swag Bucks!

I'm already almost to 800 SB's, moving right along.. It's freakin easy, just dont fall for any of the little adds in during the surveys.. oh and always click on the daily polls and trusted surveys and you'll get an automatic 1SB just for clicking it. Also if you do any and or all of the Special Offers, those are easy too. If you have to download and install something (for example Real Media player) you can do that totally for free and then just get the swag bucks, and then uninstall whatever it was you installed.. but always save a file to a location on your Hard Drive and then scan it for virus first.. just a precautionary measure but not really needed.
Some of the surveys are long as hell so make sure you've got time to finish them, but the rewards are a lot greater than just searching the web, and also if you go shopping online (like I do at places like Borders and Tigerdirect all the time) make sure to log into Swagbucks first, than follow the shopping links and find your store and click on the link for that shop and then log into that account and shop away. Soon as your done you've just earned some SB's.. it's really that easy.  Pretty fun and addicting too. Do a search for Swagbucks Unwrappings on youtube if you dont believe me, people are trading in their SB's all the time for real shit!.heh heh

OK! As you can tell by the banner I've changed the name of the blog.... I changed it back to what I always used and started as the basis for my interweb presence way back when (probably when most of you so-called otaku weren't even born yet.. and yes I am that old!). Anyway, I opened a little anime fan club site and called it Agent Anime, and that was also the name of my old anime club in St. Louis a long long time ago in a dimension far far away. Anywho..some old skool fans were giving me trouble about all the name changes I had gone through over the years, and dont even recognize me anymore.. (well so what if I am always having an identity crisis.. I cant ever decide on anything!). Oh well, so I've gone back to default.. I started out as Agent Anime, and I figured I'd go out that way.. so here it is. Some may call me Wormhole, some may call me Animehead, some may call me an Otaku, but I'll always be an Agent at heart.. So that's all I wanted to say for now.. thank you and have a nice day.. Heh

School Days.

School Days is a really good anime, and is waaaay more adult than I originally thought.. There are tons of non-visual sex scenes and exploitations.. I had no idea what to think most of the time. And then just when I was thinking of how it could all have a good, nice, happy, conclusive, explanative, logical, and not freaky ending.. It ended!. Overall it was good, and I like really good (meaning freakily weird) anime. Good luck with the ending... hahahaha.. now I got ya wonderin dont I? Well go see it!

And also check out swagbucks.. click on my swidget and lets earn together. We can get all kindsa cool stuff for free! It's real, no big deal, fun, and not a scam! Do it.. LOL
