Kami-sama, mou sukoshi dake...
Literally, in English, it is translated as, "God, just a little bit more..."
It's like, the one who said it is asking for a little bit more time to accomplish something—wants God to wait.

So, just recently, I watched this show in Crunchyroll—a site that hosts and broadcasts Asian cartoons (animes) and dramas—and I find it really touching and poignant.

The story revolves around a 17-year old high school student who got infected with the virulent and accursed HIV before finally finding the significant person she'd always wanted to find and see; and a prestigious and crackin' composer who had fallen into a slump due to the death of her wife and child. The girl, Masaki, is a fan of this composer and the musician who sings his songs. That singer was gonna have a concert and Masaki managed to get the pricey tickets but short after, sadly, lost 'em. She then resorted into prostituting herself—tho not initially—to see the singer as well as Keigo, the composer.

Masaki, without knowing, had sex with a guy who's unaware that he was infected with HIV. Not so long after that, due to some heart-raising circumstances, Masaki had a one night stand with Keigo. Note that she's still unaware of her current condition that time.

...and then and there, their heartbreaking journey of love begins.



Anyway, the opening theme of this series, I for You, is just fantastic. It was sang and composed by the Japanese Visual Kei (also known as PARAKISS)—a J-Rock genre that boomed in God knows when—band, Luna Sea. It's very stirring—very much like the series itself. I just love every single note that constitutes it, y'should try it. Well, it's actually my blog's current theme so you chaps have no choice but to listen to it, lol.

Ah! And just so you guys know, he's that guy from the fantastic movie, House of Flying Daggers.

A Hard Cover Book for $2...
The other day, I went to the mall to buy myself a new HP printer. On my way home, I saw this bookstore giving up to 75% discount for their books, then, what I did, since I love cheap stuffs, was go in and look around. While browsing, I saw this hefty hard cover book, The Machiavelli Covenant by Allan Folsom, and I was able to buy it for only $2—which is just bleedin' amazing! By the way, its original price is $25 without the shipping fee, lol.

Bleedin' jammy, huh?
