nothing much today. woke up early, planned to meet up with Ace again on sat. I chatted with my frens during the f&n paper( i take A maths). James was acting crazy again by taking pics of us and acting like a kid. He also showed a pic of me that he took in mother tounge to Shelby(>.< ahh so embarrassing!). During all this craziness we talked abt how to improve our class blog and Winston, Chen sheng and Alan wanted Shelby to join their volley ball team(but of course she denied). After that took physics paper and had to go homeperiod(which was actually science chem). Damn, teacher made us stay back to answer a question, which was easy except that she ask those who did not pay attention or were bad in chem(except me of course;) to explain a question. Even those who knew how to do it were put under so much pressure that they could not say anything!(or thats what i think..). After that i had to rush home as i had to open the door for my grandma as she was coming back( ahh...hell starts again). Got caught in rain as a result.Anyway, here is a nice anime that is based on Venice:ARIA:
Aqua and Aria take place in the early 24th century, starting in 2301 AD, in the city of Neo-Venezia on the planet Aqua—formerly Mars , which was renamed after being terraformed into a habitable planet covered in oceans around 150 years ago.Neo-Venezia, based on Venice in both architecture and atmosphere,is a harbor city of narrow canals instead of streets, traveled by unmotorized gondolas.
At the start of Aqua, a young woman named Akari arrives from Manhome (formerly Earth) to become a trainee gondolier with Aria Company, one of the three most prestigious water-guide companies in the city. Her dream is to become an undine, a gondolier who acts as tour guide. As she trains, Akari befriends her mentor, Alicia, trainees from rival companies, Aika and Alice, and others in the city. Aqua covers her arrival on Aqua and early training as a Pair, or apprentice, while Aria continues her training as a Single, or journeyman, culminating in the graduation of her, Aika, and Alice as full Prima undines.
Each chapter is a slice of life episode of Akari's exploration of the worlds of gondoliering, Neo-Venezia, and Aqua itself.Amano frequently uses several pages of lush art to depict an environment, showing the wonder of both everyday activities as well as one-of-a-kind events. It has been described by reviewers as very similar in tone and effect to Yokohama Kaidashi Kikō.
