Heh, I will be 22 next month, so I guess Im still 
an old child.  I dont feel a day over 18 
sometimes.  And other days, I feel 60...  

Ahhh, losing interest, this happens eventually.  
It's so easy to get into something when you are 
submerged in it.  I used to be a real otaku at 
one point. Then, I went to art school where the 
teachers and other students all but pooed on 
Anime.  So, for the sake of my grades, I was 
forced to let it go. But, my friend sort of 
reintroduced me to it a year ago, and now I find 
myself loving it again.  There's nothing quite 
like a good story to suck you in!  And, since Im 
an artist, you have this great respect for the 
artwork and animation itself.  

As for cels...I used to collect loads of 
them...now I only collect characters and shows 
that mean something really special to me.  Either 
sentimental value, reminds me of an event or a 
friend, and so forth.  I know that when Im 40 
years old, I most likely wont care about cels.  
But, I still will always remember the shows that 
left an impression on me, and the friends I saw 
them with.
