This post is to Rye-chan
Bloody hell!!
Uzuki and Kariya are pissing the hell outta me. Stupid Reapers.
(That is because at the moment, I'm finding it very difficult to defeat them)
I tell you, if we meet and you start playing the game, we'll be sitting in Starbucks till the next millenium or so.
I'm having a good geek laugh now
There is a pain...
No matter what I do, what I eat, what I drink, the pain still remains.
I'm close to losing it.
Bloody painters.
Maiden Rose and it's stupid cliffhangers!!!!!
I can't believe they just stopped right there! Besides, how could they shoot Klaus.. T_T
Noooo...! And Berkut is kinda annoying, the way he keeps referring to Klaus as 'Lycanthrope'. I get the reason but it's so annoying. Klaus is so much easier than Lycanthrope.
(Lycanthrope is another way of saying 'werewolf')
< /nerd >
I bought Doctor Faustus by Christopher Marlowe :)
I initially wanted to buy Inferno, Purgatorio and Paradisio because I remember seeing all three volumes in Borders that have the same cover (unlike Kinokuniya who is always missing ONE book in the set). Unfortunately, they seemed to have changed the location and I couldn't find it. I did find Doctor Faustus, though :)
I've been wanting to read this book since I become unhealthily interested in Mephistopheles (spelled Mephistophilis in the book) a few years ago.
Faustus : Wealth!
Why, the signory of Emden shall be mine!
When Mephistophilis shall stand by me
What power can hurt me? Faustus, thou art safe.
Cast no more doubts. Mephistophilis, come,
And bring glad tidings from great Lucifer.
Is't not midnight? Come, Mephistophilis,
Veni, veni, Mephistophile!
And that's how he conjured up Mephistopheles. I've always preferred the spelling "Mephistopheles" to the other spellings. I think the name Mephistopheles is only mentioned in this book. I don't recall seeing this name in any other book and the Dictionnaire Infernal does not list this dude as one of them demons. Neither does The Lesser Key of Solomon.
"Veni" is come in Latin.
If you listen to Sephiroth's theme song, they say 'veni veni' at the beginning :D
Does anybody know Latin? I kinda wanna know what that song says.
Nut, do you wanna make a date to see G.I. Joe when it comes out? I can't wait.
Urgh, pain.

I found advertisements...
They made Darth Vader such a joke! Lol!
"Get a taste of the dark side"[They have ice cream]
"Now arriving"[The dude waiting for Hoffman looks more like he's thinking "Not again" rather than "WTF"]
"Feel the power of the force"[Yoda travels in style]
[So does R2-D2]
I saved the best for last. Oh, hilarity. Darth might wanna retract his weapon before entering the premises.-Found em all on www.uphaa.com

It felt like the whole day was building up to the GP. Lol.
GP today was somewhat unfortunate.. especially after Massa's freak accident yesterday. A seemingly harmless suspension spring can cause massive damage when you fly down the track at 200 over miles an hour. Such a serious accident hasn't happened in a long time!
I wondered if Alonso would win today (my entire family said the chances were slim) and I was a little sad for him when I saw that tyre bounce away. That was such a silly error!
When Hamilton passed the checkered flag, my brother went "YESSSSSSSSSS!!!!".. his favourite McLaren finally won.
I said "Why doesn't Rosberg move from fifth?!" and my Dad said "For him, that's good". Grr. He was flying around at 3rd place for abit and I was so hopeful for a podium finish for him but oh well... I don't even know what place he got.. fourth or fifth?
I followed my Mum out to pick my sister up from the airport.
She bought me dark chocolate with almonds! Lindt~! :D I already ate some. It was so good T_T
The Nintendo DSi's music player looks super interesting!
And is it me or does the graphics look better than the DSLite?
Temptations!

WHY 2010?
The trailer for Tron Legacy is out!!!
I'm watching it on YouTube! I love the new light cycles! The city's skyline is amazing.. of course, the graphics are way better than the 1982 version. I'm just so taken by the light cycle scene.
That's the new light cycle! I want me one of those now... I just noticed people at the bottom of the picture.Just so you know, the entire trailer shows the light cycles racing and it ends with this dialogue..
"You won, okay... this is just a game!"
"Not anymore"
The light cycles seem so much more flexible now than it did before. I have not thought anything was cooler since... this afternoon when I discovered they remastered Blade Runner! Or a while ago, when I discovered Lego Indy Jones for PC..
Okay, I think alot of things are awesome.
Wait, I just read they are getting Daft Punk to compose the music?
...
Anyway...

Watch!
I'm not posting the video here because the video is too wide for my layout.
[I heard Yasmin Ahmad has passed.. If this is true R.I.P]
I'm finding really interesting objects online.
Raiders of the Lost Ark, Temple of Doom, The Last Crusade and the latest, Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (which I honestly felt was such a disappointment).
The only part I really liked in Crystal Skull was at the beginning, when they shot up the wooden boxes and drove off.. the camera zooms in on a broken box while at the background you see them driving off. The content of that broken box was the Ark from the first movie. :D
All through the last one, I kept telling my brother the many ways they could transform it into a Lego game.. hahaha. I really think they should do it because I wanna play it. I finished Lego Batman and Indiana Jones and I'm so desperate to continue playing a Lego game that I think I'll try out the Star Wars one eventhough everybody tells me it sucks.
They remastered Blade Runner...! (Old news, I just found out)
(I found Lego Indiana Jones for PC! :D)

I love this clock! Nut, you're good at math.. this'll give you something to do. Lol!

I brought Nut in to show her that she could buy old movies...
On the Way to a Smile Final Fantasy VII Episode: Denzel
...Or whatever the actual order of title is supposed to be.
It's too long.
I don't remember how long it was because I sat there mesmerised by how cute Denzel appeared to be in this.. and also, at his flashbacks of Midgar because I have made it my personal goal to recreate Midgar on 3DMax. (Same way I'm one day gonna 3D-ise Hayao Miyazaki's bath house from Spirited Away)
Should be around 30 minutes to an hour.. I don't believe it is an hour though.
I was pleasantly surprised to find that there is some guy named Arkham.I'm not sure if it was bad subbing but the Japanese word sounded like Arkham. This only fueled my desire to own H.P. Lovecraft's books.
Although, this one seemed to be only one episode. I didn't see the episode that talked about Tifa or the episode about the rest of the Avalanche members either. This one was just Denzel talking to Reeve. Damn, I feel like playing the game again. I felt sad for Denzel though.. losing his parents, then Arkham, then.. T_T

Something cool I found
Inspired by the Lewis Carroll classic “Alice through the Looking Glass”, Yasmin Sethi has designed a chess set in which the pieces are opaque cylindrical blocks and hide the identity of the pieces until they are placed on the board. The idea is to show that chess pieces have no intrinsic value and when removed from the board, a pawn and a queen are equal and neither has any value. Embedded within the glass chessboard are LEDs (LightPoints) while the chess pieces are made of clear glass with the shape of a traditional Staunton chess piece enclosed within it.- taken from ODDEE
The Lego chess set is cool too.. and the 3D.
I have this urge to play chess.

Then I read that she's in ICU and is on life support.Oh man. I pray she gets better. I always enjoy her advertisements even though some leave me in tears. (Those are profound, life changing 3-5 minutes, okay)
The most unpredictably stupid thing happened while sending my brother to the driving range.. my car's air conditioning died. I felt like a turkey on Christmas. It was so hot in the car we could've had a barbecue without fire and coals.
I read all ten volumes of Kusatta Kyoshi no Houteishiki in record time.
But the story was nice.. and addictive.. like Totally Captivated.
Although, Totally Captivated was more addictive, I believe.
Just had a very filling sushi supper.
Aaaah~

Doing the holiday thing
"I'm at the bank now. I'll call you when I leave" - Nut
"Mmmhf" - Me
Itallianies for lunch because Nut wanted to eat pasta.. I had pasta last night.
I was about to stuff food into my mouth when she said "Wait wait" and arranged the plates and bowls together. Took her bloody long to get a shot.. that's why my arms are folded. I wanted to eat. The waiter that served us needed some help hearing-wise, I believe.It was a good lunch. The mushroom soup was good.
Minor obsessions.. okay, things I want
What about ESP you ask? What about ESP? BC Rich baby, yeah! (I still love ESP, though)This is The Beast. Hahahahaha~

The type that comes without a CPU. Screw Macbooks. I'm a desktop type person because I'm a hermit type person.
T_T It gets more gorgeous everytime I see it.
This is the Wacom Intuos4. It's pretty, no? Imagine all the shit I can draw up on this thing.
Back to drawing.

I'm beginning to wonder if I should've searched Ars Goetia instead of The Lesser Key of Solomon.
Lego Indiana Jones is beginning to piss me off.
It's so frustrating.
1. The women do not know how to STAY OUT of my way! Stupid females! I save their stupid lives, bring them along on the adventure and all they do is hold their umbrellas and stand in my way when I need to jump.
2. Why does Indiana Jones run on so many conveyor belts?
3. It's unfair how the enemy in Temple of Doom have knives and I only have a whip.
Lego Batman was so much more fun.
Oh man, this blog is so funny!
http://failblog.org
Just check it out. Man, do people fail.
The penguin has a "WTF" face.Hahahahahhahahahaha~! This one really made me laugh.

Pop the champagne!
I was so nervous when I asked her (because the results weren't up as she had said)
Me: Can I have my ID number, please?
Lecturer: Yeah
Me: Um.... Did I pass????
Lecturer: Yes, you did............. (She has this habit of dragging so I was very sure she was going to say 'but you did not pass PTS and therefore, you fail everything else')
Me: ._. BUT?
Lecturer: *blink blink* No but. You passed. See you in Year 3.
The party went off in my head.
It was like Christmas all over again.
It is such a relieve.
I think she laughs at me.. cause every end of term or year, I get all nervous and ask her if I passed. I should start remembering my ID number.
Then I come home and Nut tweets me saying "I think you wrote your ID number on my paper. If I find it, I'll let you know". Here I am thinking, why the eff in the name of all that is holy, would I write MY number on HER paper? I have no idea. Don't ask me things like this. My hands are rebelling against my central control system.
Oh, Leo-chan, while reading the Dictionnaire Infernal, I actually came across your name!
Lemme paste it here...
Leonard or "Master Leonard" is a demon or spirit in the Dictionnaire Infernal, Grand-master of the nocturnal orgies of demons.
Nocturnal orgies, eh? How 'bout that! :D
I was at Borders Gardens just now and I searched out "The Lesser Key of Solomon". The bloody country don't sell books on demons or what? This isn't about religion, it's all in the name of curiosity and research! Gah! I wanna know how to make those vessels of brass that Solomon apparently used to keep the 72 demons. Not that I'm going to try.. trust me, I've read them rules on conjuring up demons, sounds like a bitch in the arse. I have no time for all that.
Anyway, if my Grandma comes home to find me with a silver ring on my middle finger, a circle and triangle with strange writings on the floor and me holding a brass storage thing, she'd throw me into church so fast, you won't be able to see it coming.
I saw the Wacom Intuos4.
If I had the money I would have bought it on the spot.
I do but I'm not gonna spend that money.
I want! They only had the large one.
I don't need a large one (I WANT a large one but my computer area does not have space for a large one... I can't fit a small one as it is)
Argh!! Rye-chan, is your Wacom the Bamboo or the Intuos?
The Bamboo Fun is very cute. I like the white one so much.
After last night, I have a renewed interest in Mephistopheles.
Bad bad bad.
Yes, the history lesson continues.
As you would've noticed, I'm reading up on England's monarchy today.If you are as crazy about Vivienne Westwood as SJ and I are, your eyes would have been immediately drawn to the orb in the image above (those are the crown jewels by the way).
I love that orb. I liked those orb earrings by VW (Vivienne Westwood, not Volkswagon).
While reading, I was drawing.
I realised while scanning through the hundreds of Murmurs that I have drawn, I've never drawn a child Murmur (the demon, not the verbal action) so I did :D
I also drew Murmur as a spirit. A small ball of (blue) fire with a vulture's beak (because it is said that Murmur is a soldier that rides a vulture, he can't get any cooler, can he?) and when I was done, I got this strange urge to rewatch Shaman King. Lol.
Also, I became intrigued with the demon Sitri. Unlike Murmur (Duke, 30 legions), Sitri is the Great Prince of Hell and reigns over 60 legions of demons. He makes men love women and women love men and reveals secrets of women and mocks them. He is said to have the head of a leopard and wings of a griffin but if the conjurer requests, he turns into a beautiful man. Thank you, Wikipedia.
So I drew Sitri too because I like to draw what intrigues me especially if there is no face to look at. (Griffin wings are a pain to draw)
My demons seem to wear robes that are the same (my mind does not do fashion) but in my mind they differ by colour which is determined by rank. If anybody remembers my witch canvas in foundation, I drew that witch's robes according to how I draw my demons' robes... lol! I hate drawing clothes (and hands!!). I rather spend time drawing the eyes and the hair.
The only thing is, I have drawn so many Murmurs but I still can't find one look that I really like. Everytime I draw him, I change his look.
I spent much of the past few years drawing Mephistopheles.. so I decided to change my focus. I've done enough of Mephistopheles.
I really can't sleep.
I didn't really want to think this but...
I'm sorry. I didn't mean to have that side of my brain present when reading history but the moment I saw the picture the thought popped up.(By the way, that's Edward V and Richard of Shrewsbury (The Duke of York, I believe)
Presumably as children?
There is NO WAY a grown man could've looked THAT feminine.. could there?

I did forget but only because I was too busy crying to realise that I am supposed to have other things on my mind.
The one thing I got from the show was that while robots are an amazing feat in modern technology, they can never fully replace us humans love-wise because they aren't human.
Well, poor little android boy froze for 2000 years and then woke up to find that the one person he wanted to love him (his Mum) is long gone and all that journeying was for nothing.
Jude Law was funny.. I got quite sad when they finally caught him.
Rouge City is genius. I love the city. The bridge leading in are female heads with their mouths wide open and their hair pulled back (as the things that suspend bridges, I presume). It kinda reflects the city (being a red-light district) because it looks like the heads are giving someone a blowjob. Anyway, the buildings were epic. The only moment that I really enjoyed was Rouge City. Not saying that I did not enjoy the rest of the movie, it's just too sad for my current state of mind.
Holy shit, I just watched some scary shit. Artists should not be allowed to draw men like that! Aaaaaargh
I believe I sat through three hours of Haydn's The Seasons (I kept calling it Four Seasons.. knowing well enough that Four Seasons is Vivaldi.. I think.. Haha)
It was awesome. Very good.. as expected, my favourite was Winter.
I entered the hall and scanned around me to see who was sitting behind me (cause if you're gonna be sitting through 3 hours of a musical, you'd wanna make sure nobody is kicking your chair/talking/any other shit). I see five girls behind me and go "Hmm".. I look down and I see all their shoes OFF. OFF! They took off ALL their shoes and were sitting cross legged on the chairs before the shit even began! They do realise that in the damn hall, if you are sitting above somebody, your feet are at the person's head's level, don't they?
Anyway, apparently, halfway through my sister turned around to tell them to shut up (cause they were talking the entire time) and she got herself a good view of pink socks. So she got quite mad, I believe.
What I enjoyed most about tonight was the harpsichord.
I don't believe I've ever seen a harpsichord be played live before.
Although, I pitied the tuner who spent the entire 20 minute interval tuning the darn thing cause it's like when you just changed the strings to your classical guitar, you gotta keep tuning it.. that's the harpsichord.
Why isn't the Ai no Kusabi staff blog being updated?
Aaaargh.
I need something to fuel my obsession.
I was rewatching Kirepapa last night.
Hahahahahahahahaha~
I'll continue this when I stop laughing.
[OH MY GOD! I FORGOT TO LOOK OUT FOR H.P. LOVECRAFT~!!!]

Frail, the skin is dry and pale, the pain will never fail and so it goes back to the remedy...
I can sing every word.
I have completed the hero mode of Lego Batman. Now I'm playing the villain mode, so much fun!
I'm continuing Okane ga nai. I stopped at the fourth volume and never got to reading the rest and I finally decided to download the rest of the volumes. Aaah, Kanou is so hot.
Seriously, if I was a gay boy, I'd wish I was Ayase.
:D
The series is so full of epic win!!
Everytime I see Kanou rush in to save Ayase, I swear the little fangirl in me goes "Kyaaa~" even though I would never ever say that word out loud.
Especially this page... I nearly keeled over because the fangirl in me actually just passed out from it's awesomeness.
If anybody has read the pages following up to this, you'd know why I died from awesome overload.Today, I played driver to my brother (I can't wait till he can drive) and servant to a rabbit.

Robin is extremely useless but the game is cute!
I just sent Two-Face and The Riddler back into Arkham Asylum :D
Now to do the same to the Penguin.
(Check out the killer abs painted on Batman)I'm dying to read Lovecraft's work. This Saturday, while I'm at KLCC, I'll check if I can find the books. (I got reminded of this due to Arkham)
MM's Arma-superlongname-Geddon is starting to grow on me.
It's quite addictive.
:D I knew if I listen to the album again some songs will grow on me.
The worlds greatest golfer is dictator Kim Jong Il. North Korean records show he once shot 38 under par. He should be at the British Open.
- read it from Qikipedia on Twitter
I just wanna know if it's possible to shoot 38 under par without terrorising your subordinates into scoring you so.
Wednesday, July 15, 2009
I'm listening to Marilyn Manson's new album The High End of Low.. although it's just half the album.
The first song, Devour left me dumbfounded. I do not know what to make of it. It's like you expect a big juicy turkey on Christmas and all you get is a roasted chicken wing.. You know?
The second song Pretty As A ($) (That's them censoring the word swastika.. for reasons, you know) is pretty okay. It doesn't make me wanna jump up and scream like Anti-Christ Superstar but it's okay.
Next, Leave A Scar.. I like the guitar. That's it. ("What doesn't kill you, will leave a scar".. that's pretty much all I hear from this song)
~[So far, I'm not very impressed, seriously]~
Four Rusted Horses, starts off very slow. I'm expecting it to pick up sometime now... Oh no, it just died down again. What is going on?? Ah-hah! I think it's now... Go go go.. HUH?! Okay, I've actually lost interest already.
Arma-Goddamn-Motherfxckin-Geddon (That IS the name, replace the 'x' with a 'u'). This actually starts better than the others. Compared to the rest, this song is actually GOOD. It reminds me of his older stuff.. stuff that he released before the turn of the millenium. I might hear this one through. (Is he saying 'First you try to fxck it, then you try to eat it'??)
Hmm, I like the instrumental break.
This next one is called Blank and White. "I will choke all of you down" is what I hear at the beginning. Has he turned to cannibalism? Honestly, I feel it's just like it's name. It doesn't sound to me like Marilyn Manson. I can hear the Twiggy influence, though.
~[Still not feeling the way I did when I first heard Mechanical Animals]~
Running To The Edge Of The World has the same impact as A7X's Dear God. Which means I am sitting here with my eyes wide open in shock because like Dear God, it sounds country and totally NOT like what MM and A7X usually does. However, just like Dear God, halfway through the song now, I feel like I might like this. It's a ballad and he's singing not screaming. It is VERY different from the usual stuff that I like from him but it's also, in it's own way, quite good.
And the songs stop at I Want To Kill You Like They Do In The Movies. At this point, I'm kind of at the low end of a high and not the other way round. This actually sounds like one of his older songs that I like with a teeny bit of country shoved in. I'm gonna be stopping now. When I get the rest of the album, I'll continue this.
~[What happened?? I was so excited for this because Twiggy is in it. I was totally expecting something that will blow my socks off. It wasn't bad, honestly, the album was actually pretty decent. It just wasn't what I expected so I'm more shocked than I am disappointed.]~
Hello, it's 4:15AM
And also Remedy.
Shit, I never realised how awesome their music is.
I'm regretting not listening to them earlier.
Not swearing, that's the name of the song.
I updated my IE to IE8, I think.
Everything looks so damn weird now.
The fonts look strangely stretched out and bolded.
It'll take me awhile to get used to it.
The wrist and elbow is better now.
I was lying in bed and heard the rain and I thought "No wonder those shit joints started aching".
I, personally, LOVE rain. My joints, on the other hand, apparently don't share the same love as the less physical me.
I actually fell asleep already.. until my stomach started acting up.
I know people request for organ transplants but has anybody ever requested for a whole body transplant?
I need a new immunity system, new joints and a new stomach.
If I get those, my problems will be over.
And the word "I" was used excessively in the past six sentences, I know.
I got a message during Japanese class that made me remember all the fiasco with the band that time.
You know, I've pretty much given up on that dream.
However, there is still this one part of me that wants it.
I told myself "Screw bands" but that one message made me go "Can I?"
I haven't played the songs I used to jam with her since that fiasco.
That's because I'm trying to NOT feel that rush when I play again.
If I feel it, I know I'll get sucked back into it.
I don't have luck with bands because I never get to play with people who are on the same wavelength as I am. The one person who is on that wavelength is the reason why I'm feeling this way about it all.
I wish I could throw caution into the wind. I wish.
Speaking of that, I wonder if my brother tuned my bass back to standard tuning.
I dropped it to D for a reason, damn.
My fingers want to play Moonlight Sonata on piano now.
I just realised that I downloaded 'Totally Captivated' a long time ago but never read it.
I told my sister to read it and she came out of her room yesterday and said "Totally Captivated is totally captivating".
Yes, it is.
Rye-chan, SJ refuses to buy me Asahi.
Can you? *gives you puppy eyes* :(

I may have the hots for a robot.
I remember the exact time because I stared at my phone like this ._. until it turned to 10:42AM and because I was so surprised it didn't take a nuclear explosion to wake me up that early.
Then Nut messaged me asking if I wanted to watch Transformers and I said "Hell yes".
At 1PM she called me to let me know she was leaving Subang, unfortunately, I accidently fell back asleep at that time so she called and said "Are you STILL sleeping?!" to which I had to say "Mmmf".
So I met her and we sat down and I was thrilled for the next 2-3 hours.
I swear to God, Ironhide and Optimus Prime has to be THE hottest robots in.. robot world.
I tried to compare Wing Zero and Deathscythe Hell to them but I'm telling you, a robot with a mind of it's own, unlike the Gundams, are hotter.
Story-wise, the first Transformers movie was definitely better. The second one was obviously for the fans of the CG, the robots, the action and Megan Fox.
The way Ironhide took out that Decepticon at the beginning of the movie was actually so amazing :D
Thank God none of 'em died in this movie, unlike Jazz in the first movie (and I really liked that lil one too).
Then, after the movie, Nut and I had dinner and then we left.
I'm sleepy now.
Sunday, July 12, 2009
A few that I found funny:
anonymous: If you fail at first, you're not Chuck Norris.
bigdiler: Chuck Norris can clap with one hand.
LadySarahjane: Chuck Norris didn't sell his soul to the devil, the devil sold his soul to Chuck Norris.
LadySarahjane: Chuck Norris played Russian roulette with a fully loaded gun and won.
LadySarahjane: Chuck Norris can slam a revolving door.
LadySarahjane: Chuck Norris can strangle you with a cordless phone.
Hahahahaha!
As you can tell, I found LadySarahjane's jokes the funniest. (I don't follow her but I just came across her funnies while reading)
Especially the Russian roulette bit. I needa learn to that trick.
FOR ALL THAT'S HOLY!!
"Saa, kore kara doushiyou ka na"
...
SAA KORE KARA DOUSHIYOU KA NA!
(Roughly = "What should be done from here on?")
AAAAAARGGGGGGGGHHHHHH
She put us in a suspense since 1989 and she ends it with a question T_T
*wails endlessly*
*slinks off to read doujinshi*
Very long rant about a certain obsession
My sister told me that she has had a PHYSICAL copy of Bronze Vol. 14 for a long time (which, by the way if you missed my last post, is the final volume that I've been waiting for) and so she passed it to me and now I'm reading it. I cannot believe she has kept it in her bookshelf for so long! (I'm struggling along with the Japanese but my limited knowledge of kanji seems to be prevailing thanks to the god-given furigana)
I have no idea what the HELL is going on. All I know is, Izumi STILL can't walk.
I need to read Vol. 13 to find out what the heck is happening at the beginning of this volume.
Ah, eff.
And 'Kanarazu shiawase ni naru' is slowly taking over 'Dou sureba ii' as the key operative sentence in the manga.
The emotions are DEFINITELY being overplayed by the mangaka but that's what I love about Bronze, the mangaka isn't afraid to write something that is unrealistically realistic (sorry about that).. but I suppose if you read about what has happened to her in her past, this manga is somewhat her way of experimenting with the idea of a love that is too desperate and obsessive to work out. Everytime I read it, I start to question myself about the possibilities of somebody loving somebody like the way Koji loves Izumi.. Hmm.
This can be a psychological undertaking, Rye-chan.
But yet, I'm still smiling reading it because I already know that in Ai ni Obore, Ai ni Shisu, Izumi says 'I love you' and they are together so alls well and ends well. Yay!
Hopefully, this will cure my obsession.
Saturday, July 11, 2009
Yesterday night, while doing my daily check on all the manga sites, I found the ONE manga I've been dying to read, Bad Blood! How I could've missed it all these time is something I cannot tell you.
It's another doujinshi by Minami Ozaki and it was kinda released in between all the drama.. I think.
Anyway, I would like to believe that the Koji and Izumi that I see in Bad Blood is the Koji and Izumi that is after Ai ni Obore, Ai ni Shisu.
Why? Cause they're SO different from Bronze or Zetsuai. There is no drama between them, yay.
I loved the part where they forced Koji to go to Paris for a shoot and he wanted to go home.
Aaaaah~
I feel happy now. The last time I felt this happy and satisfied was when they finally released FF7AC. The next time I'll feel like this is when Ai no Kusabi 2009 is released!
Yay~
The chapters Bad Trip and Bad Blood is good. Zodiac was somewhat like Bronze Vol. 5, just less graphic and less violent and less shouty.
:D

Corpses of cheer
So I arose from my death-like slumber and leaped into the shower (nearly hauling Ivan with me).
Then, I leaped into Nut's car and we were off.
As we were passing a cendol truck, Nut went "Oooh, cendol~" and I said "Oh, this one is nice"... so she made a turn and we stopped for cendol and rojak. Our first meal of the day.
We are not healthy people, as you would've noticed.
Then we sped off to Bangsar cause we needed to unfurry our eyebrows.
This one was quite amazing cause we made it to Bangsar, find a parking, do our brows and come home all within 40 minutes.
The parking was a stroke of incredible, somewhat impossible and unrealistic luck.
I needed to be home by 2PM sharp, according to my brother or he would be late for tuition.
So I come home, right as the minute hand slaps 12 and I go around looking for my brother and I found out he has walked out to KFC for lunch.
And he returns at 2:15 PM. Next time, he should not expect me to be punctual.
After returning from the traffic disaster, my head decided to let the troops invade and I had to take painkillers or I would've died.
I took the minimal-est dosage of painkillers that probably didn't work and decided to just go to sleep. (I have a fear of painkillers... I fear that when the time comes, when I'm old and I need to take painkillers to kill off whatever pain that would've accumulated during the years, it wouldn't work because my body has become immune and I have to take VERY STRONG painkillers)
I had the oddest dream.. it involved many dreams coming true.
Then, I woke up to curry. :D
Torchwood seems to be trending on Twitter very often these days.
Stupid BBC here in this country is delayed.
I have no idea why the hype because I have not watched.
But Cpt. Jack is unbelievably drool worthy.
Nozomi-usagi-hime-chan has pooped on the one person in this house that she has bonded with... my Dad.
Hahahahahahahahahahahaha~!
He was humourously outraged.
I was almost outraged because he tried making me pick up the poop and I always try not to have ANY physical or visual contact with a living thing's / human waste.

Another nerd post
In terms of scanlations, it has a long way to go.
In terms of Japanese release, it has ended a long time ago.
So, I found out that Izumi and Koji have some problems with the Nanjo family (Duh! That flippy-haired brother ran over Izumi!!) and they make a run for it at the end of the final volume, Vol. 14.
And apparently, there is NO closure... until Minami Ozaki decided to release a doujinshi that ended it properly.
Yes, so I read the doujinshi (before all others) and...
...Yessssssss!!!!!!! Izumi FINALLY said "I love you". Koji's face was PRICELESS. Of course it will be priceless, Koji has been saying those three words since 1989! (Technically, the timeline isn't as long as in reality)
(If you wanna know, I'm currently still stuck at Vol. 11. I couldn't help but skip all the way to the end)
I re-read what I wrote about the micro-gnomes and the aliens in my rabbit... and a thought popped up in my head.
What crack am I on?
I guess, we'll never know.
Head for the hills!
Who are they, I don't know but they make little bunnies produce a strange buzzing sound.
My bunny, who has been alive for about 8 months, has NEVER made a sound until today when I heard her do this buzz buzz sound.
I swear, it's the aliens.
Houston, we have a problem.

Hmm, so this piece was NOT composed by Tomaso Giovanni Albinoni but by some dude called Remo Giazotto? Then why does it have Albinoni's name in it?
The Codex Sinaiticus is online!
http://www.codexsinaiticus.org/en/
We apparently get to view the original codex (although it's in pieces).. all 800 over pages!
I need to learn me some Greek now.. or it'd be like viewing the symbol chart on Microsoft Word.
I have a very amusing image of scholars hovering over a scanner, slowly placing each parchment over to scan it into the computer, in my mind.
It's over and it's 4 AM
And I really mean cried.
The tissue box is many tissues lighter.
I cried when it started, I cried during the clip montage, I cried during the performances, I cried ESPECIALLY at Brooke Shields' and the family's message.
Very sad. I can't sleep or I'd look REALLY Chinese when I wake up. Stupid eyes.

"Don't let idiots carry guns, it's dangerous"
I have not punched anything so it is strange.
I get this feeling that micro-gnomes are slowly invading my bed. It's a micro-blitzkrieg.
Wounds of unknown origins are popping up more often than it should be.
Perhaps I have slept on a gnome-mound and didn't realise it.
I should do something about the wound now.
I hope the gnomes aren't bothering Mr. Flurries and the Ivans.
Sour - Hibi no Neiro (日々の音色)
Very cute :)
Ended up sending it to Nut (Kacang) who found it cool and tweeted it and apparently, posting it on her blog too.
I love YouTube.
I like the song as well.. it'll leave you smiling at the end :)
Glow sticks = Epic love!

Saw her car at the toll gate and decided to NOT honk to avoid embarassment. Then, I saw her speed past me (way BEYOND the speed limit) so I decided to call her and say "Yo! You just passed me HAHA" and she said "Really? Okay! I'll slow down!". I was about to say "Oy, people will curse and swear if you slow down" but I decided not to.
Saw her slowed down car and tagged all the way into Pavilion.
Then we had tacos :D
It was REALLY good although it was a little messy.
The pancakes at the end were good too. Chicken was a little salty, not my type of chicken. Garlic bread was too soft. Pasta was good, I enjoyed that tons.
After that, we walked around a little, NEARLY lost all sense in Charles and Keith when I saw a clincher that I've been looking for for a long time.. THANK GOD it was too big!
Then, I lost all sense in TopShop and bought the turquoise tights that I was eyed before. Half off :D It's Nut's fault! She wasn't being a good friend, she encouraged me to buy it. (LOL)
Came home, changed my top and sped off to FINALLY do my Japanese exam.
I cracked my head for an hour and a half and nearly committed suicide at one point but I have survived! I passed with a 72% *jumps around*...
Nosedived into some dude's ass and came out unscathed.
Then, I dropped by the neighbourhood photoshop and picked up my prints.
Yes, the prints that I lost the slip to.
I walked in and said "I wanna pick up my prints" and he asked "Do you have the paper?"... so I said "I had it. I lost it but if it helps, I sent the film in last Tuesday" and he then asked the fatal question "What is in the pictures?"...
"Rabbit"
"Rabbit?"
"Yes, rabbit"
"Oh, okay"
"..."
"AH! RABBIT!!! *flips through a little* This one? So cute"
"Yeshowmuch?"
That's pretty much how it went.
I do not understand why he had to yell out 'rabbit' like the old dude in the bath yelled out "eureka". Seriously. Everybody did a little 180 turn and tried to glance at the pictures.
I wouldn't have minded though cause the pictures were adorable!! :D
Wait till I scan 'em in :)
I think I might be heading out around town with Nut tomorrow.
Nut, if you translate 'nut' into Malay, it's 'kacang'.
I'm sorry but I just thought of it and now I'm laughing like a loon in a loon cake.

The net is slow, I can't load them all :)
Then again, my pictures weren't as epic as SeohHun's. Mine was all just US.
Although, the one below (our feet) is quite epic in it's own way.
Do you remember what I told you about the Hokkien nose?Are you Hokkien? If yes, do you see the resemblance between our noses? XD
Did you know the seiyuu for Iason in Ai no Kusabi (the original version) is dead?
Or at least, I believe he is dead because I keep seeing all these 'R.I.P' that follows his name. I'm dying to know who they'll cast for the new Iason.
Are they still gonna use the original seiyuu for Riki?
I'm obsessed and dying to know.
Fall Fall Fall.. I'm waiting for Fall!! :D
Claireeey tagged me in this 16 random facts thing on Facebook.
After doing it, I realised just how voyeuristic we have all become thanks to blogging, twitter and tags on Facebook. You basically answer shit about yourself and people read it.
You tweet what you do EVERY second and people read it... and you want people to read it and KNOW what you're doing.
We blog everyday about our lives and our thoughts and people read it and again, you want people to read it.
Shit! I've unconsciously become a voyeur.
Lol!
Brother and I were discussing our favourite Gundams after he saw my wallpaper.
(My wallpaper is a picture of the back of the lifesize Gundam they're building in Odaiba)
He was impressed with the detail, as was I.
And I told him that my favourite Gundam is the Gundam with wings. (I forgot which one he said was his favourite)
This is the Gundam with wings.

It's THIS! I'm not good with names so I do not know the EXACT model name.
Of course, as everybody knows, my favourite Gundam anime is Gundam Wing (I know it's not everybody's favourite but I liked it the most). Especially the Deathscythe. Oh man, when I saw that Gundam, I wanted SO BAD to pilot it. Then, Deathscythe Hell entered.. hoooo!
I actually really wanted to buy the model above but it was RM999.
On discount, it was RM599. Like hell! (Actually, an almost RM400 discount is actually quite good but still WAY over budget)
(I feel like watching Gundam Wing now....)
(Iason Mink's theme song is Malice Mizer-esque)
I believe there is another MPO event happening this month that I'm going for. When exactly, I forgot. Off to indulge in my obsessions :D
[EDIT: Aaaaaaaaah~!!! The seiyuu for Zechs Marquise is Koyasu Takehito! No wonder I enjoy scenes with him in it so much!]
To everybody who lives with me or walks into my house like it's their own, if you see an orange slip of paper with '7pm' written on it, please return it to me IMMEDIATELY.
Or else I'd have to go to the store looking like a REALLY forgetful person.
Now that I've mentioned that, they might hide it as a good joke.
No jokes, people.
You know, it IS possible to turn someone on just with voice alone.
Really.
Burger Shop, here I come.
I'm hooked again :S

Grr.
No sign of Twiggy, though.
Time to grab ye ol' six string and head off for another finger bending session.
Oh, speaking of strings.
Did I mention Masayo-chan wants to re-start the band with yours truly?
I'm not as psyched as I would have been. Maybe because I know what to expect in terms of surprises and shocks that would always come from her.
Anyway, I haven't given her a definite answer yet.
I have many things to sort out and figure out.
She doesn't realise that she may be only 18.. but I'm 21 this year.
She has a few more years to play around and I only have one year.
If only we would NEVER age.
Ah, the other day someone said, quite harshly in my opinion, "Grow up!".
Hm, I wonder.. grow up and...?
I believe everybody has the right to do things that they want to do. As long as it does not kill or cause another world war, I don't think it is wrong to do things the way I want to or live the way I want to. I know how to make rational decisions for myself and I'm not going to harm myself in the course of me living the way I want.
Everybody should just be who they are.. that's what I always believe. Which is why I've never told anybody to 'grow up' or 'change' because I completely understand what it's like to not be quite like everybody else. People will never understand why some people do things the way they do and I know that there's always a reason behind every action.. conscious or unconscious.
Besides, you had tons of fun as a child, no? Why not bring some of that into your adult life and save yourself from growing old and boring!
I realise that I have way more laughs the way I am now than if I were to change into what the general people call 'grown up' and I treasure my laughs more than that.
Have I not mentioned before, I won't change for the world.
If I haven't, take note now.
[Ivan triggered this particular comment]
Oh, mushrooms!
Forgot the time.
Gonna be late if I don't move my arse.

Life is so much sweeter...
I wonder when should I go...
Favourite Calvin and Hobbes strip is the one where Calvin left Hobbes behind and their house was broken into and he comes home and searches...
Calvin : Hobbes? Hobbes? Where are you?? *searches in cupboard*
Calvin : I told Mom and Dad we left Hobbest behind... I tried to get them to turn around and come back... and now look, Hobbes was all alone when our house was broken into!
Calvin : Mom says Hobbes wouldn't have been stolen because he's not valuable.
Calvin : ... (sniff) Well, I think he's valuable.
I relate to it.
Seriously, I do.
When I read that strip, I held on to Ivan for a day.
I love this Yuhki Kuramoto song titled 美しいものになら... :D
(Utsukushii mono ni nara)... 霧のレイクルイーズ is good too. Perhaps I should print the scores for it.
I was missing from the net-o-sphere yesterday because I was sleeping. Yes all, sleeping.
I woke up at 3PM, studied a little, saw the Chinese doctor, he poked my wrist about, prescribed herbs, came home and conked out.
This sickness is no joke.
And now, I'm awake.
As awake as two awake beings.
However, I do recall waking up shortly last night to adjust Ivan's face and my blanket, sat up to clear my nose and then I faded out again.
Going out abit.
Photo printing is overdue!
I wonder if that store sells black and white film.
Lord knows how much I love black and white and detest colour :S
Yes, detest. Strong word. If I could, I would make all photos sepia or black and white.
Mmmmm.
