When did Monday get here?
on October 3, 2011 at 3:35 pmI’ve been trying to find a solution to my website problem. I have a ton of old comics I need to upload here. Do I make each series have their own site? It would work, but I want one site that integrates everything. I’ve been trying to figure out what to do… I am not good with code and I don’t care to learn, so I have to rely on others’ work. Unfortunately I am picky. Comicpress is pretty common, but I don’t like it’s base look and I’m not good at editing themes. The Webcomic Plugin was tried too but it had a problem with posting bulk images. I decided to try a sort of gallery plugin…
…and then I found a Taiwanese drama called The Mischievous Princess. 3 days later… I am on episode 24 and had to force myself to stop long enough to tell you this.
Who wants a review? I want a review!
The Mischievous Princess, a Taiwanese drama, 33 episodes long. I found it because I am always looking for series where a girl disguises herself as a boy. It’s more fun that way. If I could write a thousand stories in which a girl disguises herself as a boy, I will. In this show, set in ancient China, the daughter of a great general disguises herself as a boy and roams the street with her over-the-top posse as a gangster. She causes trouble everywhere she goes and can fight or talk her way out of any situation. She generally spends her time being a Robin Hood, stealing from or scamming the rich to buy food and make houses for the poor refugees in the city. Eventually she ends up scamming two important people, the Emperor in disguise, and a powerful Prince, but they all become really close. And of course both men inevitably find out she’s a woman and fall in love with her.
At first it’s a fun comedy, but later it gets more serious. The main character is great, she’s fun and fearless and does whatever she wants. The actress is really animated, it’s great. The Emperor is not really good looking… but he can be funny in how he manipulates the dumb women in his court. The prince is hot and gets hit really hard with the love sickness. I also think he has a posture problem… The show is mostly about politics. Complicated situations surrounding these three people. I get hooked in so easily… once one situation is resolved there’s another one I can’t stop watching… I’m a hopeless addict to these things.
Enough about that, I have other news. Despite being a bum and watching Taiwanese people not make out (my one problem with foreign shows… anime included), I applied for a job at Harris Teeter. I was applying to Gamestop but I think a sales job would be bad for a introvert like me, even though I would love to work with video games. I’ve worked at Harris Teeter before, and at another grocery store before that (it’s a grocery store btw) so it’s comfortable and familiar. I applied as a bagger even though baggers these days are mentally challenged or teenage boys (same thing)… but I was a bagger before, and I am socially retarded so I have every right. Still, I might give in to being a cashier since it may be my only chance of getting a job there.
