OTAKU!!

Anime. This word has now become a huge, no, gigantic part of my life. Since I watched my first anime, Dragon Ball, at the age of 13 (?), anime has captured my attention and has since became a big part of my life.

I'm now going to confess here on my blog, not like everyone I know reads this. But I have kept this for so long...

Here it goes... I AM AN OTAKU!!

Phew! I just had to get that out of my system! Not that I've been hiding it, but not everybody knows that I'm actually an otaku. I just love reading manga and watching anime, and often catch up with my favourite anime episodes and manga chapters every day. You will be absolutely shocked to see exactly how many manga and anime I read and watch everyday.

For the past 6 years since I was introduced, manga and anime has since became an addiction to me. I even watched a whole anime series with 203 episodes DURING my SPM exam. DURING!! Not before and not after, but DURING!! The amount of time I spend downloading all the anime music and manga + anime wallpaper is also staggering if you wish to know. For me, their music is very inspiring and very catchy, very suiting to my taste. The lyrics are also very nice and inspiring, so I love their music very much! :) Even my iPod's music playist if all filled with anime music!

Plus, the addition of ANIMAX in Astro just adds on to the addiciton, although now I no longer watch anime on TV. Instead I watch it online, on websites, which are constantly updated. Watching anime also helps me to improve on my Japanese, as listening and reading the English subtitles helps me to understand eventually, after watching so MUCH anime series, what the characters are actually talking about.

So, hope that you guys (or whoever that's reading), still like me and accept me for who I am, despite the fact that I'm an otaku. :)

XOXO,
Audrey Leow
