Doi~!
I've been very busy that's why I couldn't make any updates. The plan for a Pokemon layout this April is already canceled. I searched everywhere but I never found any good pics for a Pokemon layout.

Today
Today, we didn't do anything in class but play Gameboy. That's why I brought mine and my Pokemon Emerald. I tried to save my file and it said "internal baterry has run dry". What do you think happened? Is there any defect in the GBA? Or is it the cartridge?
We ate Australian lambchops for dinner and just like the lamb kebabs we ate in abroad, it tasted awful! There's just something in lamb that I don't like. There's a taste that overpowers the meat.

Yesterday, while I was staring at the sky throught the window, I heard my horny classmates talking about some nasty stuff. And when I turned my head, I saw my classmate's p***s. It was so pinkish. After seeing it, I laughed so hard that my lungs almost bursted out of my mouth.

Phew!

After a week of intensive mind-exploding exams, I'm finally back to update my blog.

I'm already working on the code for the new Pokemon layout but I haven't started on the graphics yet because I have to wait for another week for the Adobe Photoshop CS2 to arrive via courier.

Weh! It seems like it's been centuries since I've been waiting for Pokemon(Anime) to be aired here in the Philippines.

Juu~!

Birthday Blast

2006-03-13T16:28:00.000+08:00

Tomorrow is the day I've been waiting for, my birthday. Tomorrow I'm going to be 14 years old and that means 14 years of suffering? Just joking. I had alot of memories in my 13th year, memories that I wish to erase, keep and bury so deep in the Earth that it would melt in the fiery furnace down below.
On my birthday, I'll be receiving a Pokemon Emerald, which I haven't had the chance to buy last year. An Adobe Photoshop CS2(Yeah! I could make quality graphics now. ^o^), at least it's better than this Corel Paint Shop Pro X that I'm currently using.

It's been quite some time since my last post, ne?!

I might be having Japanese tutorials this April. My purpose for this is so that people who watch anime in japanese could have the comfort of just sitting(or lying) on the couch just watching their show instead of reading and watching at the same time. (Arghh! Stupid subtitles!)

A new layout? What kind of layout do you want? Pop-up? Table? Frame? Pokemon? [Pokemon?!]
Scratch that. ^^

What series?
Naruto, Pokemon, Fruits Basket, Prince of Tennis, Saiyuki, Yakitate! Ja-pan?
What? Hoho ^o^

Please post your answers as comments.

Hai! There are 3 new Pokemon in town.
Their names are:
Tamanta, Perappu and Buizeru.
All of them are very cute, especially the baby Mantine, Tamanta.

Those are the new Pokemon. Nifty, huh?

Nii! The NSAT is nexy week, and here I am, drooling at Pokemon.

Where I've been to awhile ago:

I'm currently working on my Powerpoint presentation on Monday. It's somewhat like our project for T.L.E. I've finisehed 3 slides already and I still have a long way to go.

Books that I've been reading this week:

Kitchen God's Wife by Amy Tan

Strange Highways by Dean Koontz, which is one of my many favorite authors.

There you have it.

I might not be posting the whole week after this because I have to review really hard so that my dad would buy me a laptop.

Totally Absurd!

2006-02-28T12:17:00.000+08:00

Got an expensive taste? Why not try the "Golden Opulence Sundae".

This is the most absurd thing I have ever heard in the entire year.
A sundae for a thousand dollars!

Here's a picture of the "Golden Opulence Sundae", the world's most expensive sundae.

I know. It sounds crazy: $1,000 for an ice cream sundae? But, the sundae is The Grand Opulence Sundae from famed Serendipity of New York City and it's made up of the best of the best. According to the restaurant, they sell approximately one a month, so apparently, quite a few people have some money to indulge in such opulence.
The Golden Opulence Sundae, the "World's most expensive sundae", was created to celebrate Serendipity's 50th Anniversay last year. (If you are paying attention, the 50th anniversary is the "golden" anniversary. Get it?)
Made with "5 scoops of the richest Tahitian vanilla bean ice cream infused with Madagascar vanilla and covered in 23K edible gold leaf, the sundae is drizzled with the world's most expensive chocolate, Amedei Porceleana, and covered with chunks of rare Chuao chocolate, which is from cocoa beans harvested by the Caribbean Sea on Venezuela's coast. The masterpiece is suffused with exotic candied fruits from Paris, gold dragets, truffles and Marzipan Cherries. It is topped with a tiny glass bowl of Grand Passion Caviar, an exclusive dessert caviar, made of salt-free American Golden caviar, known for its sparkling golden color. It's sweetened and infused with fresh passion fruit, orange and Armagnac. The sundae is served in a baccarat Harcourt crystal goblet with an 18K gold spoon to partake in the indulgenceserved with a petite mother of pearl spoon and topped with a gilded sugar flower by Ron Ben-Israel."

Now, how absurd is that?!

The DB Bistro Burger is another incongruous food. Worth a hundred and twenty dollars.

American Idol

If you haven't heard of American Idol, then shame on you. It's one of the best shows on Earth. HarHar. ::joke::

Another Fil-Am Contestant
Jose "Sway" Penala

Jose Penala, a Filipino-American, started singing at the young age of seven.
Over the years he would sing at family gatherings and found he had a passion for music.
As a teenager growing up in the San Francisco Bay Area he put together his first singing group.
Serenading the hallways of their high school, with soulful music and smooth harmonies, they became known as "Simply Smooth."
The group sang together for a few years until they decided to go their separate ways.
Jose realized that he enjoyed performing for audiences and that music was his life.
Jose began writing lyrics and continued to perfect his voice through the years.
In 1996, he partnered with his good friend, Darrell to form the group “DnH” - short for Drop n Harmony.
Friends, Jerome and Lionel, joined the group within the next three years.
The four self-starters worked hard on their craft, practicing constantly to blend their voices into the perfect mix of breathtaking harmonies.
This San Francisco based group, was a favorite in the Bay Area and were likened to a Filipino Boyz II Men.
In 1998, they were signed by a professional label and released their self-titled debut album in 1999.
DnH's first album was a hit among the Asian community but was unfortunately overlooked by mainstream media and did not receive the airplay that it deserved. Popular for their ballads, some of DnH's memorable hits include, "Anything" and "Because I Love You".
At the end of 2001, Jose began a compilation with members of other Asian-American singing groups. During this initial collaboration, the four singers: Jose, Errol, Drey, and Cyrus, realized that they shared the same passion for music and similar visions of success. This led to the creation of a new group, “6th Day”.

Their debut album, "Forever Starts Today" was released to International audiences and received much success in the Philippines.Throughout these chapters of his life, Jose has developed both personally and professionally into a mature and powerful singer. However, this is just the beginning...

The future looks bright for this shining star!

American Idol Rocks the Ratings
February 21st, American Idol soundly won the night in all key measures, outperfoming the nearest competition by an incredible 79% among adults 18-49, 124% among adults 18-34 and 22% in all total viewers . 29.7 million viewers tuned to watch the Top 12 girls perform.

When the Grammy Awards was aired in television more people watched American Idol than the Grammy Awards.

Simon Cowell
Arrgh! That brute! He has some sort of prejudice amongst the contestants, or let's just say he's a racist. If you're not white, then you have a very little chance in joining the Top 12. That's what I see in him. Remember it's only an opinion of mine.

Pride and Prejudice, that's Simon Cowell:

A Tribute to the 1986 Revolution

2006-02-25T12:49:00.000+08:00

20 years after the 1st Edsa revolution in which Marcos stepped down with his post as a dictator. The question is..."Was it worth it?". In my own opinion, it's never did. 20 years ago, Philippines was the 3rd most prosperous country in terms of economy. Now, Philippines is the 2nd most corrupt country. People said that when our late president, Cory Aquino took place as the Philippines political leader, the Church dictated the government's actions. Therefore, fiasco struck the Philippines because the Church ordered to stop using contraception. The sudden fluctuation of the Philippines' population resulted to the mitigation of GDP. Thus, the Philippines' capacity to admisniter the needs of the Filipino grew worse and poor people got abundant.

::Recitation day for T.L.E.::
Our teacher uses a method in recitation in which he draws cards with our names in it and calls upon th person whom he has picked from the deck of cards.
We had 3 rounds for every student.
†First Round†
All went well. Basically, it was easy, Our teacher repeats the question for 2 times, so, we could still view our notes, after he finishes the question then there's the time we will answer.

†Second Round†
Mediocre.

†Third Round†
Err...The worst. Evidently, I was humiliated infront of my clasmates. In this round, we aren't allowed to view our notes. [you could have just imagined how ambiguous the question was]So, when I was called to recite, my teacher asked me the question and I was somewhat deaf at the moment, I said "Huh?".::my classmates laughed::I didn't have any choice but to guess the answer. Voila! It was correct. You know what my teacher said? He said that I could be a good prophet.

/---Friday night---/
Mom came home from a meeting and brought home a gallon of pistachio ice cream(my favorite).
Mom always buys canned goods or frozen meat whenever she comes from work. We ate burger that night. Except for my sister who was in a diet.

----------------------
†Saturday† February 18, 2006/ 土曜日
When I woke up that morning, I suddenly felt that I had a cold. Maybe I got it from eating ice cream.
I had a fun time watching Pokemon even though I had a cold.
I finished my blog layout in approximately two hours. It kinda made me agitated by the fact that I was looking in the monitor of the laptop for 6 hours.

Math
Recently, I've been drenched with delirium by the fact that I had a failing score in our Math quiz. I got 5/20.
The quiz was really confusing but not that complex as Filipino.
An example: (I actually got it right)
m= 2/5 (15,2)
Solution:
[y-2=2/5(x-15)]5
5y-10=2x-30
-2x=5y=-30=10
-2x=5y=-202x-5y=20

English
Nothing much had happened.
Science
Same as English.

----------------------
†Thursday† Yesterday / 昨日
Err....I forgot what happened yesterday.
::sigh::

---------------------
†Today†
The worst day of my entire life as a 7th grade student(1st year).
I was rushing this afternoon because we had a sudden change of class schedule. Normally, I have to go to school at 2:00pm every afternoon but this time we were told to attend our afternoon classes at 12:45 pm. I got there in time but when I reached the rendezvous point no one was there. So, I waited tediously for 15 minutes. Classmates of mine started to come, and our teacher wasn't still there, so, we played for a while.
I was very fond of tripping others. I never thought that my gig would soon turn out to be an unfortunate event in my life. I saw two of my classmates were chasing each other. I felt an urge to trip one of my classmates. I never thought that he would fall in the ground. He was really short, about an inch below my shoulder. He's one of my best friends. I knew that he had a heart problem. As he fell on the ground, I heard a thump. I was really scared. He was then brought to the clinic, and he was lying down in the gurney. I had an awful feeling, as if there was something fluttering in my stomach. I waited impatiently on what happened to him. Then they said that his father is on his way. It made me feel even worse. Ii was trembling with fear by the thought that his father would shout at me. Good thing though, he was somewhat like our neighbor. I prayed fervently. Then, I saw him come back with a smiling face, looking at me.

The End.

Pokemon Gaming Revved Up

2006-02-21T16:06:00.000+08:00

Pokemon Ranger is out in the market by March 23 this year. So, save up! Nintendo DS is a prerequisite because Pokemon Ranger would only be compatible with Nintendo DS. I was quite depressed when I found out about this. That's why I'm saving so that I could a DS.

In this game you start out as a rookie Pokemon ranger and must travel the land(and sea) helping out people and basically, Pokemon.

Watch out for this amazing game!

I find "Oh! Naruto Nippon" cute. I've been listening to it for the past 6 weeks and it thrills to my bone to see those cute characters. The radio drama is in Nihon-go but there's a website that offers a translated script for the listeners.
I find it hard to believe that most of the Otakus don't know a single word in Japanese, well maybe there's some but not that profound.

After an hour of intensive reading...I'm finally near the ending of the book that I'm currently reading, "Hundred Secret Senses".I pity that mentally retarted Kwan.

Things that Happened Today.When my sister woke me up this morning, she wakes me up because using an alarm clock would be useless, it just goes to my dream...I saw that it was already late dawn, and that meant that I was almost late for school. So, I bathed for 10 minutes and hastedly went to my bedroom to wear my uniform. After wearing my uniform, I rushed to the counter and ate together with my mother and sister. While I was eating, my sister suddenly shouted in English. I tend to speak in other languages when I get mad. I think she said; That bastard! He's threatening me! Mom suddenly barged in, saying, what? who? Valerie? Who is that?, I asked mom. Mom said, he's a boy from your sister class. A boy? How come he has a girl's name? I replied. I dunno, mom said. My sister said, he's saying this blah blah blah(I didn't had the chance to hear her). So, that's what happened. So, I just went to the bathroom, and brushed my teeth.~After 5 minutes~I was waiting my sister so that we could go to school, so, I checked her in her bedroom...and I saw that she was still lotioning her feet! I mumured to myself, what the heck is she doing! We're almost late for school, and all she thinks about is lotioning her feet's soles.

::takes a deep breath::

As I entered our classroom, I saw that class has not yet started. I sighed, realizing that my Filipino teacher always gets late. So, what I did was read my book. She gave us a quiz after the lecture, and boy, was I happy, seeing that I passed her quiz. It's the first time I got a passing score in Filipino this 4th quarter.

Science Time

Science this 4th quarter is sooo boring, I even thought that sleeping was a great idea, but I was really determined to finish the book, so, I read it again. And there was a paragraph in the story that made me laugh my lungs out. Figuratively speaking, yes.

Social Studies class

This was the time I got really pissed off. Cause, I didn't listen to the discussion in the previous week. And our teacher gave us a surprise quiz, 35 items in total. I got 16, wasn't even the half of the entire items.

~Afternoon~
Earth Science
I presume that this is the only subject that I'm find of. Maybe because the teacher is my favorite. Let's just put aside that matter. What really makes me happy in this subject is that all of my classmates are silent during this period, maybe not all. I feel that there is serene in this subject. Even though our teacher teaches evolution, which I don't believe it's true.

Ne, I had another nose bleed, and it's really messy.
I'm still figuring out how to erase my blog title, it's really confusing, as if the browser doesn't want to conform with the codes. I'm studying Japanese right now, and it's really frustrating. Especially Kanji lessons. I'm finding it hard to understand Paint Shop Pro. Tutorials anyone? Arrgh! All these windows is making me insane. I have 6 windows opened here in the laptop. Hora! Sore Obito-san desu!

Sayonara.

Yatta! My nose has bleeding for the past 4 days, and it's making my throat sore.
::sigh:: Kaz is leaving KHQ. I'm really dissapointed.
I'm finished working on my blog's layout. The problem is, I don't know where to edit the script. I'm also wondering how to put a shoutbox in my blog.
That's for today.

Yay! No classes today.When I woke up this morning, I saw that all my pillows fell from my bed. ::wonders why I'm using 7 pillows::I noticed that my room was so messy from all those books, encyclopedias and bond papers. Wah! I still haven't worked on my project yet! I wish you could have seen my room, it was horrible! My socks were under my bed, my towel was on the floor, my pencils were scattered on my study table, my slippers was scattered, and what's worst is, my head was hanging! I felt dizzy awhile ago...I'm thinking of buying a new game, even though our ps2 is in inactive mode right now. I wish FFXII is already out, I really can't wait to play it! I've even hallucinated last Saturday afternoon into thinking that I had a ps3 already. One of my Naruto pins got wet and looked like there was stain on it. I think I should buy a new one.I was listening to Glay's concert last Friday, and it was awesome! I really wish I could go to Japan this year.And I'll buy loads of stuff, because it's alot cheaper to buy anime merchandises there.Demise::sigh:: I've been very lonely these past few months, cause I just found out that I was living in demise.I could hardly smile...I could even be in silent mode for the whole year just listening to sad japanese songs.I've been studying CSS(Cascading Style Sheets) for 5 weeks now, and I'm still a 'bit confused.My maniana habit is making me mad! I do my reports the day before the due date, and I furiously make haste when doing it. And the outcome? Terrible. Well, at least I had a 93 for Earth Science.Wah! This BitTorrent is driving me crazy! ::sigh:: I've watched "Parent Trap" for the 12 time since 2000...And boy, I still don't get bored.::sigh:: I wish mom would let me buy on the internet. Specifically on eBay.I'm dying to get that Itachi cosplay robe.::sigh:: I'm having flashbacks...I remember those days when I get to know Anna better in Kulit Palace.I even remember showing Aya what a moogle looks like in FF12.::sigh:: I wish they'll air Bleach here in the Philippines already...Talking about anime, I've watched 3 episodes of Yakittate! Ja-pan, and it's superb! Tsukino is HAWT! How funny their manager is, wearing an afro...Well, that's all for now.
