Ahahahaha when it comes to buying things online, especially from sellers on LJ, I have the same problem too as most sellers live in the US and shipping from the US is so freaking expensive. If I factor in shipping costs, I might as well buy a brand new copy from Yesasia or something. Also, thanks to LJ, I've found people who are willing to help me get fanclub editions of some CDs, although shipping is still a bitch.

Maple sugar candy? I'll keep that in mind :) I have a sweet tooth, though my cravings are normally for chocolate. I don't remember seeing them sold anywhere I've been though, hmm.

Thanks for all that info about Canada! All I can think of to say now is man, I really didn't know all that before. I've pretty much lived in capital cities all my life and while I've never been geographically cut off from everything, it's not all about tightly-knitted communities either.

(It's somewhat embarrassing but I've not heard of Canada being similar to Finland until I got into Hetalia /hides)

I've heard of how some types of snow aren't suitable for fooling around with but I have no idea which is which, and I think no one in London cared either at that time :). I trekked to the nearest park on that day and it was full of people throwing snowballs, making snowmen and generally just playing around. Snow is exciting to me just because I've never seen it before at that time. The first time it snowed it took me awhile to realise that the white stuff falling down was snow hahaha.

DO IT. I love love love the manga and I have almost all except for the newest volumes and I'm slowly picking up the artist's other works too and man, I can't shut up when I'm talking about this ;_;
I actually picked up the manga before there was an anime; I bought the first few volumes in Chinese (and probably bootlegged, oops) and then I stopped because I didn't like the art and I couldn't understand much of it back then. Then the anime came along and I was like wow this series is great and wait, don't I have the manga? And then I dug out the manga and fell in love with the story and art and went on a mad hunt for the rest of the series ♥

Exactly! I suppose we're not much different in that case. Either way, we get screwed.

Yesss, maple sugar candy. Most delicious ever. There is a hard candy, but I like the soft one better. You break off a little bit, and let it melt on your tongue, and oh my god is it ever delicious.

As for Canada, no problem. I love talking my country and could babble for hours about it. As for living in places, I've been stuck in relatively small and isolated areas all my life. Now I live in a major city, but even so it's a rather small one compared to others, and it's in the middle of nowhere - about three hours from the next major city, or something like that. So the isolation is still there, in a way. A lot of places in Canada are like this.

And Canada being like Finland - to be honest I didn't really think about it in that way and start making the comparison until a few months ago, when I started reading about Finland more in-depth. Most of the similarities are rather superficial, but even so, they're there. For example, much of it has to do with geography (similar in the northern areas, though Finland is flatter) and isolation - both have small populations compared to their size, and outside the major areas/southern parts, everything seems a bit... cut off. There are other things, but those are the two big ones that I see.
I do so love the thought of us being a bit alike. Maybe it's just because I'm so irrationally obsessed with that country, pffft.

Man. The thought of never seeing snow before, then not knowing what it is at first when you do see it... It just boggles my mind! I can't fathom it at all!

And OKAY FINE I will bug her about it and read it. I do love the parts that I did read very very much, and I like that artist's style (visual) very much, so there we are.
In my case, I watched the anime first, because I obtained it through fansubs. At the time, the manga was either not available in Canada, or it was available but not in my city (like most things, I would have had to drive five hours to get it). I tihnk I have half the volumes, maybe - some day I will get the rest, even if I have to go to EBay to do it, hah.

H-Hi. I, uh, don't really have anything to say, especially when I online come online at night when my brain's half-dead but I thought it would be rude for me to not respond at all to your comment and uh *flails*

ON the subject of snow though, oh god thinking back on my first year in UK there were so many instances of me being a total idiot in matters concerning the weather there. I mean, like, radiators. What is this alien contraption. Something like that anyway.

...I evidently can't write properly when I'm sleepy. And I will not get started on Saiyuki again or this thing will be twice the length it is now.

THAT IS OKAY. I mean, if you're braindead and tired and so on, I certainly understand not being able to formulate a reply. I don't really mind if people write short ones, or if they take a while - really!

Radiators. RADIATORS. Gaaaaahhhhh they confuse me ;~; There is one in my house, and it is ANCIENT, and there is no way to control it. And when it turns on, you can hear the liquid sloshing in it, and it makes REALLY REALLY LOUD AND WEIRD NOISES OMG. ;~; It scares me.

I can't write properly when sleepy - I typo the hell out of everything and my english kind of fails, sob. But anyway. <3 That's all for now.
