let's go chasing things called dreams

I just realized that I never formally wrote out a concert/trip report about LA. ...granted, it's 1:24 am so I'm definitely not going to do it now, but I... probably should.

Life's been kind of hectic as usual. MEK had Capture the Flag this weekend so I was outside enjoying the beautiful spring pollen and dog allergies. For the new guys, MEK, Mu Epsilon Kappa, is my college's anime club/co-ed sorority (apparently they chose "sorority" because "fraternity" is so overused), of which I'm Historian and therefore stuck going to all of the events. And holy shit we just have a ton this month. (And here I thought preparing for All-Con was bad).

Friday we had Capture the Flag.
Saturday was the 'Big Event', a giant community service project for all the different school organizations, and we spent two hours in the glorious Texas morning picking up trash and cigarette butts from the side of the road in exchange for a free T-shirt and food.
Then next Friday I'm helping decorate Easter eggs, and Saturday is the Easter Egg Hunt... Nobody actually gave me details except "be there for this".
And then the Friday after that is the Scavenger Hunt. /deadcat

...seriously, what the hell.

ANYWAY.

This post is actually supposed to be about FTIsland. So when I went through the Spring 2012 anime list, I saw something listed under "Ozuma" which was apparently by the man who created Captain Harlock, and the art looked ridiculously old-school, so I put it on my "watch eventually list". I was talking to my roommate later and mentioned it, and she was like "oh, FTIsland's doing an opening for something" and pronounced it oddly, so I was confused at first.

But then I realized she was just pronouncing it without the U, since apparently it's written as OZMA... I think it's just both but the romanization is awkward.

BUT THEY DID THE OPENING and it is fabulous.
