I have been going to school year round for about 2 years now, working on a Bachelor's degree in Clinical Laboratory Sciences. My summer semester classes have been cancelled, so I find myself with a good deal of free time that Im totally not used to.

I have decided to give myself certain tasks to keep myself busy, and one of them is to watch Avatar the Last Airbender (henceforth referred to as ATLA) and liveblog about it.

I am going into this as a Virgin, the most I have seen about ATLA were some commercials for toys several years ago, and whatever random bits and pieces that have come up on the My Little Pony thread in Western Animation.

A few things about me... Im 32 years old, female, and somewhat disillusioned with television programming. I typically prefer to read or play video games so watching a long running television series is going to be a rather new thing for me. I like Ponies...

Oh, and MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD... just in case you couldn't figure that out on your own :P

So... kick back, relax, and deal with my excessive and improper use of elipses...!

Yeah it was filler, but fun. And loved how they WEREN'T going to just leave Aang, until he got them pissed anyway.

With them leaving him to find their father. I dunno, I think they'd been with Aang long enough to understand why he would do something like that. They are prettymuch ALL the family he has in the world save for Appa, and his fear of them leaving him was in line with his character I think. Im guesing it was just a hot headed moment, and they had to cool off a bit before turning back.

Episode 15 is very memorable for me because it's pretty much (minor spoilers, sort of) Aang and Zuko's last big one on one fight.

Yeah that's what i figured to, they were just mad, even without Zukko finding them once they calmed down they would have gone back.

@Bluespade - Dont worry about spoilers so much, a certain someone on the Pony board already spoiled that particular item for me already. Wish they'd use spoiler tags more when they rant :(
