Dona eis requiem. Satoshi Kon, 1963-2010

Satoshi Kon was a Japanese director/animator of some of the best anime films I've seen. Such as Millennium Actress, Memories, and Paprika. One of my absolute favourites of his was one called Tokyo Godfathers. I would really encourage you to watch his works. A few days ago, he passed away because of pancreatic cancer. He also left a final statement in his blog before dying. It was one of the most touching things I've read in awhile. He was only 46 years old. It really breaks my heart. Not only did we lose such a talented person...but just a person in general.

I don't usually make a lot of entries on things like this, but I really felt I should post this.

In other news, college draws ever closer...I'm having to run off to a orientation type thing and then work later. On the plus side of things, I recently got hold of some wonderful green skinny jeans and a Sonic the Hedgehog tshirt (thank you mom for buying me new clothes...I have new outfits instead of wearing hand-me-downs from my three other sisters!). Oh, and free Amazon Prime is quite awesome.

Namaste, everyone.
