Are Energy Drinks Bad for You?

This is an important issue to me since I consume lots of energy drinks. This article details whether they are or not.

Basic summary of the article:

• Energy drinks aren't necessarily bad for you, but you should be careful if you don't know how sensitive you are to high levels of caffeine.
• Do not drink alcohol and energy drinks together.
• Be sure to keep yourself hydrated while drinking energy drinks since the caffeine they contain is a diuretic.

Best Video Games of 2005

Though we're all excited about the next gen console war, let's not forget the good games from this year.

As far as the PSP goes, the best game was Lumines. This addictive puzzler was one of the few PSP games that wasn't simply a clone of a game that was already popular on one of the consoles.

For the PS2, the best game was God of War. The original fresh gameplay combined gory action and fresh puzzles to make it my favorite game ever.

And as for the Xbox... Well, mine has sort of been collecting dust. ^_^

Tooth Fairy Sesshoumaru

The following just a small story I wrote that I think is really sweet.

"Tooth Fairy Sesshoumaru"

Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha nor any of the associated characters. They are Rumiko Takahashi's characters. I am only borrowing them to tell a story.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Look, Sesshoumaru-sama, look!" Rin said as she ran up to Sesshoumaru.

Sesshoumaru had sitting under a tree meditating. As Rin came running up to him, he was stirred out of his thoughts. When he looked at Rin, he noticed blood coming out of her mouth. He also noticed that she was holding out something white to him.

"Rin lost her first tooth, Sesshoumaru-sama," Rin said with a grin. One of her front teeth could be seen missing. "You know what that means."

"What does that mean, Rin?"

"That means that the tooth fairy will come, take Rin's tooth, and leave her money while she sleeps!"

Sesshoumaru said nothing. He did, however, wonder who this tooth fairy was and why she delivered money in exchange for teeth. I guess I'll find out tonight, he thought.

*****
That night, Rin was excited when it was time to go to sleep. As she laid down by Sesshoumaru, she placed her tooth by her side. She smiled at the tooth until she finally fell asleep.

Sesshoumaru began keeping watch for this 'tooth fairy'. As the night went on, however, no tooth fairy made an appearance.

Hmph, Sesshoumaru thought. This tooth fairy story is just some stupid story told by humans to their pups. How does such a tale survive? Who gives the pups the money? Suddenly, understanding dawned on Sesshoumaru. The parents are the ones who give the money.

Sesshoumaru looked at Rin and then at her little tooth. She had seemed so happy at the thought of getting money for her tooth.

After a moment of contemplation, Sesshoumaru got out some of the coins he had kept from when he killed humans. Reaching over Rin, he picked up her tooth and placed the coins where it had been.

*****

As soon as Rin woke up, she saw the coins laid beside her.

"Sesshoumaru-sama, look!" she said as she tugged on his sleeve and showed him the coins. "The tooth fairy came!"

"Oh, so she did," he said while rising with his back turned to Rin. He was smiling. "So she did."

Hello

Hi! This is just a brief introduction. As the title implies, I plan to post anime fan fiction and a few odds and end here. I should post some stuff soon.
