Dead Greek Philosophers

"And now, Athenians, I am not going to argue for my own sake, as you may think, but for yours, that you may not sin against the God by condemning me, who am as his gift to you."
From the Apology by Plato (as translated by Benjamin Jowett)
Socrates: self-proclaimed Gods' gift to the Athenians.

socchan's Amazing Book Store Adventure

...Rather pretentious title, isn't it?
So I had just logged off when I hear my mom say from the other room, "I'm going to the book store."
I immediately perk up. "Book store?"
Mom: Oh no, she heard me--! Okay, fine you can come.
Me: Yay ^_^!
After a few minutes of organizing stuff, we load in the car and drive to Waldenbooks (if for no other reason than it's convenient). Mom picks out a few books to mail to her brother, and I pick up Fruba (Fruits Basket) volumes three and four. (Yay! I'm all caught up now! Except now that I'm caught up with one thing, a dozen other books will come out and leave me in the dust T-T...)
While we're standing in line and waiting for our stuff to be checked (we took a long time today -_-;) someone comes up and whispers "Team Lime".
I'm kinda freaked out for a second, but I'm already giddy from Fruba supplement, so I turn around and see a young lady standing there. (Blond hair, glasses, college age? I'm not that great at guessing age.) I burst out laughing.
Me: It's the hair tie, isn't it?
See, Team Lime was the Yaoi panel at Anime Iowa for attendees sixteen and over. And, well, I'm kinda semi-constantly wearing one of the FMA hair ties that I made ^^;;...
Anyway! Fruba. I am officially a Fruba-case ^_^. (Yanno, like 'Fruits Basket Case'? Okay, I'll shut up now.) I am such a Momiji fangirl. He's just so cute ^_^ <3~! And he gives me an excuse to learn Fangirl German. But my favorite Fruba character would probably have to be Kyoko. Because Kyoko is the best thing since Pyromaniacs (pyromaniacs being the best thing since sliced bread). ...I wanna be Kyoko when I grow up. Even if it means dying early and living on in a photograph and watching over my only daughter from beyond the grave (which I _REALLY_ hope it doesn't >_<).
Also? I stand by my opinion that Akito is a spoiled brat. And that his being a spoiled brat is a good part of what makes him screwed up. And damnit, someone needs to unspoil that child damn fast >_<.
Also also? _Everyone_ loves Tohru. I mean, _everyone_. (Wow. That's a whole lot of crack pairings you could potentially get out of one series.) Including me ^_^ <3...
