Voice Actors

It comes as no surprise to those of you who know me that I love Anime. And what's the coolest thing about Anime (besides the amazing storylines)? The talented voice actors!
Anime would lose its golden chair if the voice acting sucked! It would be like watching Star Wars with Xena playing in the background!
So, without further ado I wish to give a shout out to 3 of my favorit voice actors! Each of them so well known to me that I can ALWAYS pick them out of a show!
Counting down please :)

3. Yuri Lowenthal



Yuri is probably most known for his part as Sasuke Uchiha in Naruto. Another role he did that I absolutely love is Suzaku Kururugi in Code Geass.
Here's a link for him doing a little spill for Sasuke: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yIbHT23XqcU





2. Johnny Yong Bosch



Johnny does many characters I love. His most well known roles are: Ichigo Kurosaki from Bleach, Vash from Trigun, and Lelouch Lamperouge from Code Geass.
On top of being a voice actor he was also one of the first origional Power Rangers which, less face it, I was a HUGE fan of as a kid :) . . . even though it's a little dorky now lol.
Also, he's a martial artist which I absolutely think is a valid argument to making him a cooler voice actor in my own mind. So here is a link for Johnny being an angry Ichigo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CiNJUhq7DS0


AND NOW FOR #1


Vic Mignogna



Vic *drool* is awesome. He's best known for Edward Elric in Full Metal Alchemist, (my personal favorite) Tamaki Suou from Ouran High School Host Club, and VERY recently Zero Kiryu from Vampire Knight. If you take a look at his rap sheet on Wikipedia you will see that he's done LOADS of stuff!
The reason I really like Vic is because he's seems so friendly with the fans. Do a search on Google and you'll find pictures of him hugging fans. Not just little hugs but full fledge arms around, head to head, huge smile hugs.
On top of having possibly the most adorable voices he's very nice looking, especially since he's nearing 50.
Vic's is really funny and in every video you'll find on Youtube with him he's cracking jokes, teasing/flirting with the fans, and just overall having a good time. I would love to meet him :)
Here is a hilarious link for Vic's favorite line from OHSHC (further proof that he's great with fans): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xN8ZyxkCHE&NR=1
So there you have it! All three of these guys I would love to meet, they each have a special place in my heart for making characters real to me :)
I love you Vic, Johnny, and Yuri!

Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing

I have officially fallen in love with this song. It's beautiful and moving. How true the lyrics are! I hope, on this rainy Sunday, to add to your day.
Posted is a link to the MoTab singing this on youtube and also the lyrics because your soul will want to sing along!

1. Come, Thou Fount of every blessing,
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace;
Streams of mercy, never ceasing,
Call for songs of loudest praise.
Teach me some melodious sonnet,
Sung by flaming tongues above.
Praise the mount! I'm fixed upon it
Mount of Thy redeeming love.

2. Here I raise my Ebenezer;
Hither by Thy help I've come;
And I hope, by Thy good pleasure,
Safely to arrive at home.
Prone to wander, Lord I feel it.
Prone to leave the God I love;
Here's my heart, O take and seal it;
Seal it for Thy courts above.

3. Jesus sought me when a stranger,
Wandering from the fold of God;
He, to rescue me from danger,
Interposed His precious blood.
Prone to wander, Lord I feel it.
Prone to leave the God I love;
Here's my heart, O take and seal it;
Seal it for Thy courts above.

4. O to grace how great a debtor
Daily I'm constrained to be!
Let Thy goodness, like a fetter,
Bind my wandering heart to Thee;
Prone to wander, Lord I feel it,
Prone to leave the God I love;
Here's my heart, O take and seal it;
Seal it for Thy courts above.

*SIGH*
Ahhh, sweet spirit. I hope you felt it too :)

It's been such a long time!


It's funny, when you don't blog for a long time you realize there's so much to say! And yet. . . when you come to do it all the stories have piled up and you realize no one will read that much! So instead you write nothing and hope they will check your facebook instead, which, lets face it, you ALWAYS update!
Why is that?
Anyways.
Things here in life are great! It's amazing how time flies! School will be starting soon and I would be a liar if I said I'm not scared. Maybe nervous is a better word.

I guess I wanted to post something but I really have nothing to say. SO, because of all the fun I've had lately, I will post a shout out to my great friends! You know who you are! Thank you for making me laugh and for always being there for me! I love you all very much and am glad I finally found true friends!

Until further blogs!
