Immortality

I believe fervently in the concept of Immortality. Ever since I was 15, I have a particular distaste for the aging process, since aging always leads to death by natural causes. Aging is a blessing for young people at their teens and early adult years, but their later lives as elderly people are cursed with disability...and eventually death.

My obsession with immortality is a struggle for my own survival...and the survival of humanity for that matter. I've been striving to achieve immortality since my teen years and I still strive for it now. The recent death of my maternal grandfather only served to fuel my willingness to gain immortality; since he died at an advanced age, where his body functions are almost completely useless, my fear of dying at said advanced age magnified to the point that I completely resented the aging process as a whole.

My target age group to achieve immortality is the one I'm currently in (my 20s). However, I shouldn't achieve it alone. The women I'm crushing on deserve immortality as well (as they are in their 20s, 30s and 40s respectively), and I fear that once they age beyond those age groups, the beauty and grace they possess would be lost forever, only continuing to exist in mere memory. It would be extended to friends, my children, their children and so on.

I would literally be the pioneer of global immortality, and I'm hoping it would come to pass.

My thoughts on Big O

Big O is the most underrated, yet equally thrilling anime series. The backstory behind Paradigm City and its strange events has caught my eye for two whole months, all the while showing off action in the form of Roger Smith (the negotiator) and his android sidekick R. Dorothy Wayneright, complete with the comic relief of his butler Norman Burg and his old boss from the military police, Major Dan Dastun.

I would give major kudos to the dub done by Kevin Seymour. Steve Blum's performance as Roger and Lia Sargent's performance as Dorothy were absolutely spot on.
