Yesterday afternoon, I was over at my friend Mari's house, enjoying myself at a very interesting sushi party.
There was Mari, Myself, Akiko and about 10-12 other friends/acquaintances from my Japanese class who came to enjoy making sushi and getting full on rice and fish.
Everyone had to bring a sushi ingredient, and since I cannot eat raw anything without getting violently ill, I brought fake imitation crab, avocado and a 24 pack of cream soda.
We all had a good time, I was one of the oldest people there aside from Mari and Akiko, so I felt really old...even though I am only 21.
We talked about everything from anime to C-Pop, and hey, I think I may have made another TVXQ fan!
By the end of the night I was so full of sushi and other delights that my poor stomach was near to bursting! ^-^
Though there was a moment there when I had to fight the good fight. Some girl brought up that she thought Twilight was better than Harry Potter.
No people. Just no. Harry Potter was and always will be EPIC. I am sorry, there is a big difference between a fantasy series with thought and brilliance behind it, and a fantasy series with almost no thought and a crapper as the writer who was most likely some form of emo in high school.
J.K. Rowling is an artist whereas Stephanie Meyer is, while not terrible, still close to sucking major ass in the dialogue department. As my friend Miho would say, "Twilight is like good fan-fiction. It gets the job done but really isn't satisfactory."
So if you were to tell me that Twilight is better reading that Harry Potter, I most likely will kick you in the nads, existent or not.
