The smooth surface,
Almost mirror like,
Watching it unknowingly,
I entered its flow,
Unconsciously submerged by it,
Fighting to grasp the sky,
Before being pulled down again,
Following it’s flow,
Unable to turn back,
The road is set;
I shall head to sea,
Can you see the future?
It’s unpredictable

As of late, so far.. these are the reviews that I've done for Critically Acclaimed.. Be sure to check it out!! :p Sorry, if I sound dry, or whatever....
And that's all for the time being... Not all of these posts have been cross posted here, so you might want to check them out by clicking on the links...
I think that's enough said.. Cause with the net acting like the Chipsmore cookies.. It's so hard to do work, or to even get my usual fix...
Also as of late, besides work... I've been on a Shoujo Manga spree lately... *shrugs* especially those involving supernatural stuff, like ghosts, kyuubi etc... leaning to the supernatural side??
Sigh, also... I really need to find time to complete the list, and well, to organise the files in my computer and external hard drives, and to make some space by burning stuff out... ゲエー.... 時よ、どこえ？Why are those stuff, things that really needs a lot of time... =.=' 何でだろうな。。 はー
Title: Satoshi kun no pai desu/ Satoshi's Pie/ Ccy's pie
Okay, I'm sorry this is really late but better late than never..
Been on a cleaning spree, cleaning my room, toilet, the room I used to study for the exams.. I've actually quite a lot of things to do... I have to sort out pictures of my one year in the UK for developing, do my scrap book/photo album [it's been sitting there for at least 3 years... sobs.. 3 years worth of picture organising... ] But I digress back to the post..
Here are the pictures of the pie I baked for his birthday this year. The juice seemed to have leaked out a bit, guess the apples were to juicy for the pie.. :p
Hmm~ looking at this, I feel like baking one to eat too :p
I cut out letters and arranged it on his pie :p
The birthday boy and his pie :p
Currently listening to this Vampire Knight radio show, featuring non either than Kiryuu Zero :p unfortunately my Japanese is only so-so and he speaks to fast for me to understand the whole thing.. I only get his complaints, cause he says that slowly haha but he sounds so cute.. unwillingly hosting a radio show.. so like him :p tearing up letters as well haha.. since he hates vampires so much.. haha.. he sounds so exasperated since he's forced to do the radio show and talk more than usual, and of all things about vampires that he hates.. :p
Translation for ghost hunt is going along slowly.. Getting quite a lot of kanji that I don't know.. sigh... And i dread the next chapter or so.. that's where they took up a case.. and the amount of words, on the page, sort of puts me off... sigh
Anyway...ccy, here are your long awaited pictures.. and I guess if the connection holds..the next few posts should be pictures posts as well... there are some posts which were delayed even longer than this...
The dreaded exams are over!!! please note that the post, Exam Timetable has been edited with a few new comments, if you are interested..
If there is really no quota as some people claim, then I think my likelihood of passing is okay... Am not sure of civil, But I think, I'll pass that one... well.. I think I should pass all of them.. provided there is no quota...
So Okay exams are over, and instead of catching up on my sleep, I ended up on the phone for almost an hour with Eugene.. and on the long awaited guitar... (well I wanted to play the violin too, but it's impossible to talk on the phone with the violin's squeaky sound?) Thanks to the Chinese Tea at lunch.. sigh.. but yeah.. it was nice talking to Eugene, as I quote Eugene "you are entertaining yourself" so yeah.. talking nonsense.. I was crying tears of mirth at his exasperation... haha what with hair and fur, and ice and water.. [haven't had quite a nonsensical conversation, nor such laughter for quite a while...]
I admit, essentially, the chemical make up is the same, like the structure of the hair/fur, but humans have hair, and animals fur.. that's the way things are haha... my stubbornness, got him exasperated and I broke out in uncontrolled laughter.. :p it's just like, ice is solid, and water is liquid... haha.. they are different! :p
On another note, now that it is summer break, I've noticed a ton of Shounen Ai/ Yaoi Mangas (Boy Love/ Gay Comics) on Livejournal....
Ermm... I don't mind them, besides the fact that it's spamming up my inbox... But isn't that sexist? is there no equality for lesbians? of at least 300 posts of Yaoi Mangas, so far only 2 have been Yuri/shoujo ai (Lesbian/girl love) that's kind of sad.... questions to friends, tells me that girls prefer boy love... (so that means most of the community there are girls? where are the boys??)
Hmm, personally I prefer heterosexual comics, Maybe cause I'm straight and a hopeless romantic at that.. (hence I prefer shoujo, romance mangas..) but I'm okay with boy love, [they are quite interesting, and the guys are quite Hawt... :p though some of them makes you feel like, he might as well be a girl, and the whole manga might as well, be a male-female manga =.=']
I've never looked at any girl love comics.. so maybe I should give it a try? and see why do people like Shounen Ai, more than shoujo ai... ? well after I get my sleep that is haha...
Well, that aside.. we will see what all that prejudice is about, when and if I ever get down to peeking at some girl love manga..
*also, I've gotten myself a new guitar teacher? Eugene has kindly offered to teach me guitar chords and plucking.. since he teaches his church members... hopefully he is as patient a teacher as ccy :p haha.. I'm one hell of a stubborn student, and I'm sure ccy can attest to that hehe..
The next post will be some lame-o poem that I wrote when I couldn't sleep, during the exam period.. Muses just love to come at times like that.. But unlike the usual muse, it wouldn't leave me alone till I did something about it, so I ended up in front of my computer on 17 July at about 2am, writing a freaking poem... Sigh.. the things exams, and procrastination do to muses.. Brings the inner demons out of you...
after that, a few days later, I was struck with a muse to write another poem, but as time was really, and I mean REALLY of the essence then, I managed to shelve that muse.. So now that poem is left hanging =='
I don't know why, and don't ask me.. Whenever I write poems, more often than not, I end up making them sort of rhyme.. (it isn't on purpose..) till I discover it like 2 paragraphs or so later...
a bit of knowledge in literature will help you in the poem which I shall post in the next post..
Ermm, because there are some.. metaphors? well, if you are interested in the poem, and don't understand it, I don't mind explaining it... though I doubt anyone would ask.. because.. well, it's quite simple on it's own.. And its kind of lame, so I don't think anyone would be that interested haha.. Also, some people might get what that poem is all about? or maybe not.. haha...
Cross Yuuki & Kiryuu Zero [the latter, being my favourite character, in case some of you haven't noticed, on my MSN. This two are also my favourite pairing :p]
Title: Vaanpaia kishi: Vampire Knight..
Usually vampires in Japanese are called kyuuketsuki：きゅうけつき: 吸血鬼. But the Mangaka [manga artist] wanted to use English.. hence the Katakana/カタカナ, and if you've watched the anime or read the manga, the furigana above kishi/騎士, is usually put as naito/ナイト/knight.
Anyway, I'm just going to fangirl a little about the OST [Original sound Track] which I just downloaded. [Cause I need to go study...]
And woah, I have to say.. I love all the tracks in there, especially the ones related to the vampires. It sounds so mysterious and intriguing.. It's like baroque, mixed with a bit of modern? ermm, sorry I can't describe music terminology... [my music theory is only till Grade 6 and I still know nuts..] But it's so cool...
Maybe because I really love the story and all, for more information on Vampire Knight, head here, and here,... hehe.. it's more to the shoujo [girl] story side.. so guys may not understand my fangirling.. since I love Shoujo stories... [I'm a sucker for romance stories, sue me..]
Basic storyline, is, it's about Vampires and the huge conspiracy behind their community, and the human community [well, throw in some angst, self loathing... etc in one of the main characters, incest? romance, loads of mystery.. freaking hot vampires... and you got yourself a story...]
Well, it gets really exciting, I've been reading the manga since last year, the manga came out in January 2005 I heard, I've been reading since November 2006 I think... [it's still ongoing, gyaah the suspense.. the manga is really picking up heat...!! ] the mystery behind it all.. ermm.. I can't really describe it, unless I write an essay here, so please check the links out..
If you are interested in music which has the organ/hapischord [though I think it's an organ], violin, cello, piano, choir, orchestra, baroque style music, mysterious music.. do ask me.. I'll give you the link for download.
*Actually it's here, remove the spaces --> http: // .shareonall .com/Vampire_Knight_-_OST_qlqn_zip.htm* Okay, done fangirling... need to force myself to study.. I'm only half done with the syllabus.. Sobs~ 頑張って！！
I didn't post my translation for page 12 because someone else had already done it.. but I chipped in my 2 cents... the pages mentioned above were translated by me.. or well i have a version of it..
Thanks ccy for helping me with the kanji, that really speeded up my translation process by A LOT!! and i mean a lot!! thanks :) *hugz* *Do not use this translations without permission.. * *Please ask if you wish to post or use them elsewhere*
A Red Moon --> the forum hosting the translations :) Page listing --> this is where the translations are being posted, together with a scan of the translated page..
For those who don't know what is going on.. Well, I don't know what I've gotten myself into, but I've currently volunteered to help translate the latest Ghost Hunt Manga, i.e. volume 10..
For the (my) record: I've translated page 4-10 and will be working on page 11, when i have the time...
EDIT: I've translated page 4-20, but I didn't put up my page 12 because someone else beat me to it :p phew.. finally done.. all that' s left is page 2 & 3, and the proof reading, which I shall leave to the rest.. I need to go study... :)
Don't worry, studies are still my first priority.. Exams are coming anyway, and 10 papers full of memory work... =.='

[Translations removed and placed on the page listing...]
When Rory called me a neat freak, I denied it vigorously, but now i admit, i am a neat freak in some ways.. posting pages of the translations here takes up a lot of space.. and for my mind who loves stuff being organised it was a torture.. so click on the links.. :)
if there are any corrections or add ons which you feel are required for my translations, please do comment here to inform me :) thank you
「サヤカ」--> the name i'm going by on the forum.. well it's my nickname i.e. sayaka...
..Recently I read a manga called The Legend of Nereid, it was drawn by a Korean mangaka, and it was really interesting, if you are into shoujo like me, I bet you will like it too.
The story is based in ancient Greece, before the birth of democracy, and the era of kings (and of nobles and slaves), where oracles were more often than not sought out, and their prophecies followed...
Due to the current Queen, whose son was foretold to fail to ascend the throne, the Queen forced the greatest oracle of the kingdom to tell a lie under duress, which turned out later....
To be the truth... that lie caused the wheel of fate to move....
Thus the life of a 15 year old girl changes, where she is sought of as the warrior of the ocean who will bring the downfall of their kingdom. (She has such a huge bounty on her head, that she even claims she will turn herself in, if it wasn't her.. haha..)
Of course what is a shoujomanga if there are no bishounens (good looking guys) who just had to fall wholly & totally in love with the heroine?.. I guess the reason I really love shoujomanga is the fact that there are bishounens who understands and are so damn, wholly & totally in love with the heroine, (guess that's why I'm still single haha), but I digress ...
Back to the topic.. how is a mere 15 year old girl, going to bring the downfall of the country from it's very roots? Simple, by allowing the enemy to play on their fear of the prophecy.
Whether it was preordained as destiny, or whether it was mere coincidence, the little girl, called Matia, fell into the hands of the prince (named Tyon) from the opposition kingdom, who fell in love with her and took her way. (His initial plan was to just use her...)
Leaving behind a devastated general (called Temmedes) whose love for her (she loved him back, by the way..) was not enough to fight his traditional upbringing of being loyal to his king and country above all else.
The prince, I must say, is one angsty brat with issues (and different sexual preferences, being homosexual is fine with me, but incest as well?? What a story..), but because he fell in love with Matia, he slowly changed. But for a 17 year old boy, he is one ambitious kid, thus using the fear of the prophecy against Matia's country, he waged war. Marching to the battle fields with her by his side, though all she did was sit on the horse, the mere sight of her, caused panic to spread through her country's soldiers.. The warrior of the ocean who will bring their downfall...
Psychological warfare...
It became a battle of the wits, and in the end General Temmedes,(who doesn't believe in prophecies, and whom actually believes that they are the real cause of chaos, in which I couldn't agree more too..) for the sake of his country (actually he was already brandished as a traitor by the king and sent to be a slave.. that's why i didn't type "for the sake of his king and country") decided to slay Matia by his own hands...
Aaaah the drama of it all, with her death, apparently his soul died with her, and he became cold and heartless, (no longer the kind & compassionate man he was) with his only intention of living on, is so that the people would not suffer, as he is a capable general, the best in the country..
As the king was to tied up protecting the capital, the other nobles sought Temmedes for his help to protect the other parts of the country where the king had abandoned, and thus his domain grew....
Well I really wonder, does everyone get a second chance in love and life? After 3 years, upon an invitation of an acquaintance to visit a harbour, a totally peculiar harbour which was unlike any part of the country, the general followed his friend, only to meet democracy and the woman to whom he lost his soul too...
Apparently Matia has forgotten everything, and is just imparting what she had learnt as a child from her teacher, to the people i.e. don't let others control you, live as you are, respect because you want to, not because you are forced too... (slaves were forced to respect and serve their masters... her teachings go against that.. her teachings say that, respect the nobles because they deserved to be respected, not because they oppress you into respecting them)
Those thoughts are practically considered heresy during that era, (what with nobles and slaves) and would have caused her to be sentenced to death, yet she preached, and in the end met her general again, but because he had "killed" her, he couldn't face her..
aah more drama... in actual fact thanks to her teacher on the island she grew up with, who was a prophet as well, whom had told her not to hate.. she really doesn't hate the general, she actually thanks him for killing her, because then, she is no longer a monster (feared by the people because of the prophecy.. and treated like one... she hates war, and the mindless killings).
But Temmedes will never forgive himself, who wouldn't? Imagine that for the sake of your country's sovereign you had to slay the person you loved the most in the whole world, and the worst part is that, you can't follow her yet, because you can't be selfish as more people need you.
He slayed her for the morality of his country's army, and he couldn't follow her in death as he needed to continue to defend his country... He had to slay one person to save hundreds of thousands, which would you have chose? It's a very difficult decision, my head will say "kill her", while my heart will say "no"....
If I were in his shoes.. I would definitely never forgive myself.. It would be so painful having to live everyday, my only consolation was that, I killed my loved one, not someone else... but can that really be a consolation? It's amazing that the general didn't go mad with grief, being brought up to always think with his head first rather than to listen to his heart.. He is a strong man..
I pity him, really, even the pain is unimaginable for me.... especially so, since this mangaka has made them out to be soul mates, that makes it even more painful don't you think? Even though she understood why he had to kill her, even though she knew that when the time comes, he would choose the country over her, even though she let him kill her, even though she forgives him, the pain is still too much to bear.. I really am an empath to empathise so much with that general... =.=
But it's good that he chose to live, (he gets to meet her again...) the army from the opposing country was going to march into that harbour... Destiny has given him another chance, to lead an army and fight against the opposing army and save the country, or to head to the burning town to save Matia...
What does the general do this time? He finally decides to go against his upbringing, and do something unlike his class, he followed his heart, and abandoned his rationality.. Lucky for him due to a twist of fate, of Matia meeting Prince Tyon again, the troops were drawn out, and all they had to do was fight off the bandits and pirates, and save the burning town...
But as most shoujo manga goes, it had a happy ending, (though the mangaka left it a bit open, but we know they are together again..) another thing that I love about shoujo mangas.
oh, and the prophecy did come true, she destroyed the kingdom from the roots... in a peaceful manner, by teaching people about democracy and voting for their leaders... :p
Due to this manga, I remembered the significance of the psychological state of people's mind... You can tell a lot about another person, from the way they dress, the way they talk, the way they interact, the way they write etc.
[*Actually honestly, this was another topic started due to my chat with my mother.... again over lunch... it started with my dog being manja when he hurt himself last month, and i said there's nothing wrong with that, usually he, like children, only come running when there is something wrong*]
It made me think back to my childhood, I always fell ill as a child, and well when a child is unwell naturally she seeks attention, I mean what do you want a child to do.. This resulted in me being called manja (clingy/spoilt) by my parents...
Please don't ever do that to your child. Your child will turn out like me, (that is, unless your child really is spoilt, then I have nothing to say) I won't voice out if I need help, if I'm really sick and if I need help, I won't voice it... Maybe in the end when I really can't take it any more than I'll voice it, but more often than not, if that was the case, it could have gotten serious.. (Although now I'm learning how/trying to voice it out, like if I really need to see a doctor when I'm ill.. sometimes my parents can be kind of heartless you know...haha)
Just like the case where I fell down the stairs in Taylor's during my Pre-U, it really hurt like hell, though I knew Gene was in the vicinity, I didn't call him for help, I just got up and forced myself to get to the bus stop by myself, (about 100 metres away, and down 2 flight of stairs, and i had to rush to boot as the bus was coming in about 15 minutes time...) and although I showed some pain, I'll say I'm fine, it's only a little pain (that's how I've become, unaccustomed to people showing concern so i brush them off)... it was a torn ligament... go figure... well i even have an uncle lecturing in the same college, and i didn't even think to call him.. i just got up and pushed myself to go...
you know i don't call that manja at all, if my leg hurts and i'm going down the stairs slowly and i wince in pain, I'm not asking for attention. Manja is where with every step, i whimper, or make a sound, or want a person to carry me haha etc. that's what i call manja..
i mean it really does hurt, why don't you try to tear your ligament and walk down the stairs normally without expression! it would be nice, and make me feel loved if you would give me a hand though.. but some people just don't do that (well Michelle did, thank god for friends...) i didn't even mention it to her, or anyone, and only when my family and all saw me limping did they ask what happen, only to be answered by a brusque, "i fell down the stairs" it would have been nice if someone had helped me onto the sofa and got me an ice pack... but i did that all on my own.. these people have no compassion towards me...
When my house got broken into, also in my Pre-U year, I didn't tell anyone, but as my sister had to leave me alone in a house that couldn't be locked anymore to make a police report, she wanted me to stay with a friend, being that scared, it's amazing i could still think, and i started to eliminate those who were unavailable and whom had no cars.. Gene was out, because he was in class (I know that one for a fact), ccy... well he was in the USA, and we weren't close that time.. I wasn't close to Rowan, all i had was yee sin and yew meng.. i called yee sin since he is the nearest, but he was busy, with his girlfriend no doubt =.=
so all that was left was to call meng, who, amazingly, walked all the way to my house instead of taking a cab =.=' oh well, at least there was someone there for me.. and after that, i didn't mention it to anyone..
Surprised? one would think that with my character, i would immediately tell people, but that's my true character, when it comes to something serious concerning me, either you be the lucky one i call upon, figure it out, or forever hold your peace..
when it came down to projects, I didn't ask for much help, i only asked my dad to help me do the on-line research, since we didn't have broadband then, and i couldn't print as much as i would like, but i did the rest myself.. i did all my projects by myself and handed them all in, i never consulted my dad unlike my brother...
until my dad complained that i don't let him read my work... i don't need him to, i can do it all by myself... that's one of the reason i get annoyed with others, because if i can do it on my own, i don't see the reason why others need someone to consult in every small little thing, i mean for heaven's sake, draft your own questionnaire!
some may say that it's endurance (忍- endure, a knife in your heart) some may say it's independence, and it's all good, I say it may be good, but it's also bad...
when I was younger, due to the fact that I was called manja so much, that when I didn't feel well, I didn't say a word, and just went to bed, no one even took notice, until the next day when it turned out that I was suffering from a high fever... Then only did it cause an uproar, with the fear that i might have contracted denggi, for a child who falls ill every month, that was indeed a cause for concern, don't you think? haha... luckily or maybe unluckily it wasn't denggi fever...
There were many other instances to mention, all because of that fear, I keep it all in.. As a child, you don't want to be hated, it's natural, you try to please as much as possible, and more often than not, this trait carries on to adult hood...
I guess it really shows independence, but humans were made to depend on each other, people trust each other and depend on each other... *I really didn't want to be hated, being a child which wasn't really wanted to start with... I guess that's why I stuck to her too much, I didn't want her to hate me, I was always trying to be a good girl to please her.. but that's all in the past... at least he wanted me, that's why I'm here...Even though it's in the past, the effects still linger, though thank god I possess a rational mind, and I understand, so I don't hold anything against anyone, but it hurts when I think of it that way, though I do know that I'm loved, but depression just tends to do that to you I guess, no matter how positive things are, if you give in to depression and only look at the negative things, ignoring the positive things, that very well spells your end....* You know, a lot of family and friends of suicide victims always say that they are surprised, they didn't expect it, the victim was always a bright and cheerful child.. But the truth is, it's not like that..
Most people ignore depressed people, so these people wear a mask, they show the world they are happy, but deep inside they are sad, they have thoughts of dying or killing themselves. some go so far as to actually injure themselves...
Trust me, they have tried to tell others about it, but they get cut off by people telling them, don't be silly, don't say such things, i don't want to hear such things etc. till they reach a point where they don't trust anyone anymore, and won't say anything, even if there is finally someone who is willing to listen... the wound would have already been cut to deep to heal...
In the end they just wear their mask and smile and keep it all in till they break one day and finally commit suicide... then all these people who wouldn't listen will come out and say.. but he was always happy... it's a sad revelation, really.. that people don't take depression seriously, it's a very deadly ailment, though some may be strong willed to go on fighting it, (it's like being thrown into a deep pit, and trying to crawl your way out) but there are those who succumb when the trigger is pulled...
all they need is for someone to light the fuse and let it run, till the big explosion comes.. so watch out for friends and families, studies have shown that suicide victims will try to talk, it's just that no one listens or takes them seriously...
-Oracl3-
Don't worry, I'm not about to go commit harakiri or jump off the petronas twin towers...*yet* i'll just go cuddle with my baby in bed :p it's just a thought which i thought was worth mentioning, as this area of the human mind seems to be considered taboo as no one wants to speak about it, but that is the cause of death. there's nothing to be ashamed or scared if you suffer from depression, you should seek help (i know it's soooooo damn easy to say, than do...)
but at least, even if you are alone, don't give up hope... no matter how dark the world seems, the sun will come out from behind the cloud soon enough... *I hope...*
"Everyone is fighting with their inner madness" -Rin Kobayashi-
title means Boku no Chikyū o Mamotte
translated directly it means protect my earth, but putting it in a nicer context, and due to other's translation, it has come to mean Please Save My Earth.
it has a sequel called ボクを包む月の光 Boku o tsutsumu tsuki no hikari, which i will touch about briefly, since i haven't read this manga yet , but am looking for it's scanlations. But from what i can see, the manga for this hasn't really been scanlated...
but from what i can gather, our main chracters in please save my earth, has married and has a child, and the story gather's around the child. i hope that people scanlate it and put up directdownload (i shun sendspace and megaupload) links haha..
so back to the main topic and the reason why i am blogging bout it... the reason that i'm blogging about a manga.. haha.. well let's just say that i was really impressed with the storyline. the drawing initally was crude, but it got better as the manga progresses, and the storyline keeps getting more and more interesting, to the point where it was kind of addictive.
it's a story, about reincarnation, ESP, love, revenge, friendship and fate. a really wonderful story.
basically it talks about 7 aliens (who look human, but have strong ESP powers) who were placed to study earth from their home planet which was then destroyed by war. the main character i would say is a 17 year old girl called Alice, (the reincarnation of Mokuren) and a 8 year old boy called Rin (the reincarnation of Shion). and yes, you guessed it right. those two were lovers in their past life. a disease broke out on their moon base, slowly killing all 7 scientist, leaving only three behind. with only one vaccine, and out of malice to make Shion suffer, Shuukaidou (Haruhiko's past life), gave it to him. the vaccine did its work and Shion was the only one on the moon base for 9 years after everyone has died (thus his age gap with the rest of the group)
flash back to earth, and we have Jinpachi (reincarnation of Gyokuran) and Issei (reincarnation of enju) Alice's new classmates, who claims that they have been having "Moon Dreams" since middle school. it was fate that brought them together, and thus their search for the other remaining scientists.
having been stuck all alone on the moon for 9 years, with the corpses of the woman he loves and his friends, drove Shion insane, and gave him immense hatred. thus once reborn, and remembering his past life he sought revenge on Shuukaidou for making him suffer...
thus the story goes..
what is more interesting to me is the ESP, which they call people who have it, Sarches, and apparently it is a gift from their God Sarjalim. the ESP battles were wonderful, with some added imagination (after all it's all still pictures.) it was a really pleasant read, to learn that they have a special breed of humans called Kirches (mokuran is one of them, she has a symbol on her forehead), who can talk to animals and plants, and their singing encourages the plants to grow.
Alice in her past incarnation ie Mokuren
Mokuren and Shion, in their past incarnation
overall, it is a really lovely manga to read, totally refreshing... with some things which really touches on our life.. should we let the past dictate how we should live the future? that is the main question in the manga. there were some wonderful quotes from the other characters, which i will be using when i post, from now on.
and to my sister, who had crispy cremes...Biatchh.. haha.. well one day if i get my @$$ back to London i will be heading to Harrods myself haha..
and all this while the quotes that you all have seen on my blog.. well the sources are from, myself, books, mangas, shows, anime, from friends..and from surfing the net...
~~
on another note.. maxis is being such a pain... it shows that it is receiving the best frequency yet my connection is slow like hell and not stable.. it took me 5 days to download an episode of twelve kingdoms.. i only had 2 left then.. well....now i have one... but it still irritates me non the less..
the main reason why i seriously have to become a vampire, or at least lead a vampiric life would be due to my internet connection. the site which i download from doesn't allow me to continue downloads if something has happened to the connection. thus at times it takes me eons to download something.
so my solution is to stay up till the wee hours of the morning where there are less people hogging the net, which hopefully means a better and faster connection to start my download before hitting the sack.. sigh the thing one does for anime haha

“I don’t want to reach that wretched answer, that I just wanted a kiss, like when I was a child” -Shion-
Due to the fact, that i was mostly not available at home... (guess some people were fooled by my msn? haha the human isn't there, but the computer was downloading for me..) i have ended up with plenty to blog about, but so little time.. (well i m bad at time management.. or rather lazy at it...)
resolution that is not associated with the new year? to return to normal Malaysian sleeping hours...study????? o_O' ... and to avoid shallow, insincere, jealous, unappreciative, uncaring & inconsiderate people. (the latter is a must.. but i doubt that i can achieve that... sigh.. guess the best i can do is to find better people)
catch up on my anime, manga and some drama..

sigh.. heavy downpours yet again... "nice to be home".... ==
The shipment with my stuff finally arrived from the UK last week... :) yip yip hurray..
After almost 3 months....
wait.. i shipped it on the 11th of august.. and got it last week.. on the 17th.... or was it the 18th...of november.. so technically it isn't a week yet since my stuff came in.. but OMG.. took them that long.. took them 3 months and six days.... sigh... but oh well, it was considered cheap..... i guess.. =='
anyway... after procrastinating, not really procrastinating, but cause i was busy with classes and all.. so i finally have it fully unpacked now..
as i was unpacking, in a way, i felt like a small kid at christmas, seeing what i have in the box... and as i unpacked, memories came running back to me, as some things brought a smile on my face.. hahha
i sound like an old women, and i haven't even parted with those stuff that i shipped back for more than 3 months...
but seriously, now that i am back in malaysia, my time spent in the UK seems like a dream, i am slowly able to cross roads now by myself, though am still a little fearful sometimes.. and well.. i am falling back into the malaysian habits again..
it really felt like i've never left at all.. i sometimes feel like my memory is fake, like nothing of that sort ever really happened.. like i ve never experienced living in a foreign country on my own, never played in the snow, never went where i wanted, never had my freedom..
and then i had to stop myself to think, and to look around.. my room is surrounded with momentos of the past year, little souveniers from london, and europe.. now i know the importance of souveniers and pictures.. it's the proof to ourselves, so that we don't feel like all this is a lie..
but i don't understand why, i feel like everything is so fake.. i long quite a lot of times to go back, and i m sure it is obvious that i do, seeing that i compare this and that, but, in the end, i guess home is still the best place..
during my final months in london, my heart grew heavy, and i didn't, want to regret anything, i hate regretting, so i didn't want to regret leaving london, i therefore went to all the places that i wanted to go, but i still left a regret..
my only regret is leaving my friends behind, though we say it is a broadband world, how often do we chat online? the living person is still better than just staring at the screen..sigh, and it is so much more harder to catch them online.. because of the time difference, because everyone is busy...
but as i said to my sister, the day i left bridges hall; sometimes i feel that it is better if i never came to the UK, never met any of those people, never made friends with them, since leaving them now is so painful, but then again, for all the riches in the world, i would never have given up meeting them and being their friends, the fact that i can feel the pain and sadness of leaving them, means that i am still human, and that i have made some really good friends.
sometimes, things hurt us a lot, but at the same moment it teaches us to hope, from this pain i am learning to hope, though it hurts to be separated by friends who have become so close to you and also family, we hope to meet again someday..
i was once a person without hope, totally dry of hope, and almost without emotion, i only knew how to show my mask, the mask with the smiling face, i left no place for hope, i feel like i'm Aragon's mother.. (read lord of the rings..) where on her death bed she said, onen i-estel edain, u-chebin estel anim, meaning, i have gave hope to the Dunidien, i have kept no hope for myself..
but putting the point of being a mesochist aside, i think being hurt sometimes is good.. why do we fall down? to learn how to stand up again... there will be scars, and they may or may not fade over time, but at least with everything we learn something new, my time in UK was not a waste, i learnt more about myself there.. and for that i am grateful....
and ok.. moving on.. that sounded really angsty... and sorry to people who have been reading this for like the 3rd time? cause i keep editing as new things come to mind, and yes the reason why it seems like, i jumped here and there, is cause there was no intial planning on the writing for this, i just wrote as the thoughts came to my mind, and just added in stuff at places which i felt i missed out hahaha.. so anyway.. back to the point on my time in UK... i miss not only my friends but also.....
the weather there.. how many times have i said it haha, even before i set foot in England, i was always already complaining about the weather here haha.. but that is life.. i don't regret ever going there, and i don't regret coming back.. even if i did, it's pointless to regret things in life...
as the saying goes, there's no point crying over spilt milk, so yes berate yourself, call yourself a coward and that you are stupid, wallow in the self pity, but do your best to stop your regrets..
nothing changes unless we make it change... it's so hard to change and a lot of people get discouraged just at the mere thought of it, it takes a lot of will power to bring about changes.. those who lack the will power just continue on to wallow in their self pity and blame the world, and blame others..
ok.. before you guys start getting funny ideas.. i am not on the brink of suicide ok.. ??
the reason that i'm talking about all this change and regret thing, is because i recently read a manga called doubt, the main character in the story, is a girl, who was really plain, and unnoticed by others, so when she entered senior high school, she decided to change, and she really did put in effort and all, and well the other characters in the school got jealous of her beauty, and therefore always found fault with her, thus she snapped and told them off, saying she wasn't always so pretty, she worked hard to get where she was cause she wanted to change her life.. etc basically what i stated above haha..
to continue... it is a nice manga, but yeah, sometimes change is inevitable, and sometimes we have to have the courage to bring it around by ourselves, i for one, am a coward in some aspects, but i do my best to be brave, though when it comes to the matters of the heart, as all of you know i am a failure, cause i am totally clueless, but like the main character of that manga, i am bringing about change, and now, though i am clueless i am not that clueless, rome wasn't built in a day.. so cheer me on, on this road to self discovery, of what i want in life, love, family & friends.. :)
on another note, the other day my cousin randomly asked, cause apparently he was doing a survey, in which i can check the results out later at his blog.. but he asked me, what do i think are the fundamentals of a relationship.. well if you asked me, my direct answer, which is short and sweet is just simple.. two things, love and trust...
but then again this two things don't just fall out of the sky..from reading the christian book, what is my purpose in life.. (haven't finished reading it, cause well, errm.. not motivated to? but i'm halfway through.. i will blog bout it when i'm done reading), from that book, there was a chapter that said that, god placed us on earth to love him and love everyone in his family, his family being all other believers..
but that is not the point here, the point here is how they described what love is.. and to shorten it, and to put it into my own words, i would say that love is time and devotion.. for example, in a family, why do some families don't get along well, it's cause they don't have time for each other, if you don't have the devotion/effort to make time, how do you expect love to nuture?
it's basically the same in all relationships, if you want to get a loved one, you must be willing to devote your time, and yourself, meaning your heart to the other person.. mother's are the best example as they devote all their time, body and spirit to their children.. but, i don't mean that everyone has to be like a mother to others..that's freaky haha, but basically.. love and trust are jsut two simple answers, i wonder how many people will look deeper.. to see what brings about love and trust...
when one is willing to spend (equivalent to devote) their time for another, feelings grow, and if nutured that is what becomes love, that's why the book was saying that the love for god was not born overnight, but more like built over time, and that is the same with all human relationships..
as for trust, that usually comes along naturally with love, but trust also involves time, the more time we spend with the person, the more we understand that person, the more we know whether that person can be trusted or not..
i think everything boils back down to time.. maybe i should message my cousin and tell him that i've decided to change my answer? :p haha
ヒント：every star has its life span, it starts out by shining very bright, but as the years go by, the gasses used to keep it alight are slowly being burnt out, and in the end the star becomes dim.... dimmer, and in the end totally loses its shine, either it just stays there as a floating piece of rock in space (i think, can't remember) or it explodes... forgot what is it called.. nebular? (sigh, when was the last time i read stuff like that... ==') aarghh.. something, and it becomes a black hole sucking all the light and other stuff into it... 私はの意味はわかたかな？もうげんかいかな。。
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ here is something interesting i got off ccy's msn.. sounded interesting to me, and well kind of romantic? haha.. so i copied it here to share.. apparently he got it off a story?? ask him, i don't know, i can't read chinese story books ==' haha but he said that he will translate it and post about it ahha :p so await the link :)
如果我是鱼，而你是水, 我可以游入你的心里吗? [ru guo wo shi yu, er ni shi shui, wo ke yi you ru ni de xin li ma?]
for the bananas.. ie those who don't understand chinese.. this means.. if i were a fish and you are the water, could i swim into your heart?
reminds me of this quote from bleach that i put on my friendster :p
"If I were the rain, could I connect with someone's heart, as the rain can unite the eternally separated earth and sky?" said by orihime..
Kazoku no kaiwa... family's conversation???? everyone who aren't in my family please diregard the conversation....(but if you stil want to read i can't stop you.. i know it's a lame post.. so err unless you somehow found it interesting.. pretend this post doesn't exist ok? :p) this post is more like for my sis to read... but i don't have a blog meant for just family members... and its so troublesome to have so many blogs..... so err.... like tat ler haha
having dinner the other day with my parents... roughly the conversation was like this...
me: mmm.. this is nice... ba, you cooked today...?
dad: who else? your mum sick liao
mum:...... *eating away*
me: hmmm so nice, ba can cook...
dad: yalor, your mom lucky lor, really share the workload in the house... lightens the burden a lot...
mum:...... *still eating away... ignoring the conversation gua.....*
me: haha, so means next time before i marry i must send my boyfriend to train under you, you become the sifu, on cooking and house chores to him haha >:)
mum:.... like that you don't have to marry already...*thought she was ignoring?? :p*
dad: .... *grins..*
me: then ar, before marry must ask can you cook and do housework lor...? *kekeke >:)*
mum: not "can" but must ask "do you like" to do housework and cook....
dad: ..... *wonder what he was thinking, but being the smart man he kept his mouth shut, let the women talk :p is he starting to feel used??? haha does my dad like to do housework and cook???!! hmmm~*
me: hahah... i see, so clever la mum, come to think of it, i also know how to cook and do housework but i don't like to do, so i don't do... haha good one...
mum: ."...." *i think she just realised* after the guy ask you to go marry a maid..... haha
dad:...... *still keeping silent??? *
me: ...... ==' don't marry lor hahah..
mum & dad: ....... *must be thinking "oh no, she will be stuck with us for years to come then...doing nothing in the house but eat & sleep...." well that's what i think they are thinking... :p *
haha but honestly now that i think of it.. i think the better question is can you cook and clean? don't neccessarily have to like it, just like in reading, i didn't like it, but at least i knew how to do it, so i won't die there or whatever.. so at least since you know it's easier, like in this case, when wifey fall sick, at least hubby (and children) won't starve and still get to eat homecooked food... :p and well wifey gets healthy food while she recovers as well hahah
on another note, i just finished watching a japanese drama called hanazakari no kimi tachi e, roughly translated as.. to you in full bloom?? i don't know my japanese sucks... =='
short form for the drama is hana kimi, there is the japanese and the taiwan version, but i watched the japanese version.... really funny, but the ending part was kind of sad, and i could really relate to mizuki... eventhough she spent less than a year with the guys at the school, but leaving is so hard, especially when you are leaving for another country...
i know cause i felt the same as well when i had to leave my mates, on 30th june... sigh.... and i'm not ashamed to admit it that i cried.. so ya haha this friends are worth my tears.. it really feels so heart wrenching to leave the people that you became so close.. well though the time together was short.. the memories will last a life time, and as nakatsu said in hana kimi.. japan and america are still on the same planet.. so ya the same goes for me, europe and malaysia are sitll on the same planet.. :) one day we can always see each other again haha... till than give thanks to the internet :)
ooh btw hana kimi has a manga too... the manga is well.. kind of long, and in some way i felt that it's better than the drama.. might want to give it a try, disregard the lousy drawing. i was laughing at almost every chapter.. haha :p
Ureshi just means happiness. Another word for happiness is “shiawase”. (which has been explained before, but I forgot which post) Why am I happy? Haha cause on the 17th of January 2006 I finally had my braces removed!! After FOUR bloody years!! All the suffering and the pain, it’s all gone haha, well on the 24th of January I have to go back for the retainers, but I don’t care at least it’s removable haha. And no more hassle when eating!!
Though after four years I am not really used to the sensation of not having the braces, my mouth feels funny. Anyway, thanks to my current doctor it’s off, she’s a rally nice doctor. Patient and gentle. She will answer all my enquires whenever she can. And she always explains the procedures and stuff without me asking, so she makes me feel more comfortable and I let her do whatever she wants. (hence faster treatment) Compared to the old doctor, Dr Kathi. That guy…. Eissh don’t want to say after I get sued. Although it’s true, but it’s a hassle to go to court because of a defamation suit. And a hassle to find evidence and witnesses.. Waste of time and money. Anyway, this doctor, Dr Fatimah. Is nice la.
Hmm! What else to say? Ohya, I actually wanted to type up a post entitled, shinjirarenai demo honto da, which means, I don’t believe it, but it’s the truth. Well the reason for that was I wanted to write about my weird relationship with Meng. Well, don’t get me wrong what we have is just friendship, but we’ve known each other for like this… is the 8th year? Haha been close for 3years, counting form one.. Anyway our weird relationship.
Guess he and I are just weird people. We like to pull each other’s leg you see. So the funny thing is, when he pulls my leg i.e. he’s bluffing I believe him fully, when he’s telling me the truth it’s almost 100% that I won’t believe him, and vice versa. You may be thinking, why suddenly only she thought of this.. Well because the other day I called him about scouter stuff and whether he wanted to go out to celebrate Huey’s birthday this Friday night (20th January 2006) and I asked him, so how are things with Jo, any improvements? Then he said yes. I guess you understand? (Hahah well, I was asking whether he and her are a couple, and he said yes. Well although the sentence doesn’t look that way, it means that. Back to the topic.)
I didn’t believe him, and he kept insisting it was true, so in the end I said, well I guess it’s true cause.. Well, I don’t’ believe you.. hahah.. Anyway, this is kind of lame, and only he and I will most likely get the joke, but as this blog is meant for myself so I thought that I would just type it down. Hahhah
So anyway tomorrow, which is the 19th, my cousin yen ling’s birthday, we (Meng and I) are going out to get Huey another present hahah, we actually bought one on the day I went out to buy Mel’s and Mich, (it’s posted already…) but come to think of it, we didn’t like our choice, so see la, if he remembers to call me by 9am tomorrow, then we will go shopping again la… and if he brings Jo, so as not to be a lamp post, I will drag Ai kun along hehehe she’s so nice, she agreed to be dragged along when needed. Arigatou Ai kun.
Ermmm… nothing else to type? Oh yes, I finished watching Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles. Finally, for 9 or was it 8 discs? It took me more than a week? Well a week and a day to finish, (I bought it on the 11th remember?) for those who know my anime habits you guys must be like “wah!! So slow” anyway, I finished it. Gene wants to borrow it. Hope I remember to pass to him hahah.
The anime was quite ok la, as I’ve read the manga so I found it ok? Anyway the first few episodes are boring, cause its like the manga, although a bit different. Slight difference only. But one has to be patient, as you go on, it gets more interesting, may be it’s due to the fact that I have only read the manga till the second book, but after that I was like, Fai wa kakoi. Kuro rin mo hahha.. Syaoron wa kakoi.. I was like wah not bad la the fight scenes and all. The soundtrack was also nice, there was only one song I didn’t like, it started with a saxophone, either than that I loved all the songs. The storyline gets better along the way, and there are a lot of surprising things!! READ SPOILER!! The next paragraph is a spoiler so if you don’t want to read it just skip. It’s only one paragraph to skip.. hahha knowing Gene he sure will read wan hahha
Syaoran in Tsubasa is actually blind in the right eye, he wears a glass eye, I was quite surprised about that fact. And also, there’s another Syaoran. This Syaoran hasn’t made his debut, but we had glimpses of him in the end, and this one doesn’t have a left eye. Haha the mystery behind the Syaoran in Tsubasa. Leaves me tingling, as I love mysteries. But I will have to wait for the 2nd season to find out what happens next. Fai is so damn cool when he’s serious, and there was a point when Fai died, I was like “what??!! No way!!” but in actual fact he wasn’t. Haha seems like they got themselves in a RPG game, except this one is much better than Hack Sign. I suspected that they were in a Virtual world. Just look at the receptionist, so game like.
Actually the storyline for this is quite similar to Cardcaptor Sakura, only that instead of collecting cards by her own, she is collecting feathers with 3 companions. And Sakura seems really quite useless here, but she’s trying her best to not be in the way. The characteristic of the original Syaoran and Sakura that we know are still there, but they are “the same and different” as Yuuko would say. And well lots of Clamp X characters like Arashi and Sorata made their debut twice. There were others, which looked familiar but I forgot their names. They are from Clamp X though. All in all, actually to be honest, so far I prefer Cardcaptor Sakura to Tsubasa, but Tsubasa makes for a good watch for me too. Maybe the second season will be better? It sure looks like the prospects will be good for the 2nd season, when they come out with it. THEY HAD BETTER!! So crappy to be left hanging..
So anyway, that’s all for now, have to look for cases for E&T tutorial next week, the only problem is that Mel is holding the paper which contains my Athens ID and Password. I remember the password but the ID….
Honto ni ureshi da, braces wa ima wa inai zo hehehhe. Matta ne
I am not sure whether the romanji is correct but this basically means, “ah man” or “jeez”, as in aa mou yada desu. Meaning “jeez, enough already”. Can’t give you the direct translation, as it will make no sense to you as “yada” means “no way” or “don’t want”. The reason, why this post is named so because, it’s really that. I can’t take it anymore!! It’s really “jeez/ah man” here.
This is why: at 0000hours on 15.11.2005, I wanted to print something, but found the desktop of the computer screwed, all the icons are big again instead of small, so since I checked, I figured that it was a virus and definitely not spyware. (As suspected it was a Trojan, blasted things) So when I came home from college, I scanned the computer and it took a blasted 5 hours and 20 minutes. What the heck man.. Jeez.
Even otousan said that the computer could be thrown already, haha. But still, have to wait till he gets me a new computer or something first. Mel told me that the PC fair will be on December 2-4th so I don’t know, maybe otosan will go take a look. Though don’t know whether we have any cash or not. Haha
Anyway, besides the desktop icons, I had to remove my Asuran/Cagali wallpaper. (I don’t know what the bloody Trojan did, but it slowed everything down, so for memory space I decided to turn off the wallpaper) For those of you who don’t know who Asuran and Cagali is, please go watch Gundam SEED or Gundam SEED Destiny. They are the characters of that show, and my favourite pair and the latter is my favourite guy for the time being. Hehe, if you noticed a few posts ago I had stated that I liked Asuran. Too bad I don’t know how to put up any pictures.
Speaking of that, looks like I can’t keep this surprise from Gene, cause it looks like I will be needing his help sooner or later, unless I let him deal with shiraneyo and later just copy that template here. Hehe *evil grin*. Anyway, I haven’t had any feed back about the cookies except from Xian Ai who says that some were hard and some were soft. Well they are actually meant to be soft. But not too soft, I guess you get my drift. Anyway guess the hard ones were baked for too long.
I discovered something new. Namely, guys are suspicious of any self-made foodstuff you give them. They will be the last to eat it; they will let their family/whoever/whatever try it first before they take one. Well Rowan and Eugene have openly admitted that they haven’t tried it yet. Sigh, these guys are horrible, they said stuff like “scared got anthrax” and “scared got poison” am I that evil? Sigh. (I study law, I know what happens if I try to poison you guys, besides, I won’t do it so openly, the cookies are so easy to trace back to me la.. kekeke *evil laugh*) Guys… and these are the same people who are poking my back in front of me saying that I have become more feminine.. Too much man. Was I that bad, (so guy-ish? All I did was smack them) years ago? Well, guess last time they just didn’t know me well enough. I thought I was just fierce not guy-ish.. Don’t know la, they are weird haha
Ohya, regarding my friend, V who was called a thief, (refer to Oi:shii) apparently there are other things missing from the household. Just newly discovered by the friend who was robbed, let’s call this friend R. anyway, R’s family found other stuff missing too, hand phones etc. so now they can’t really blame V. Anyway, they suspect a break in but there is no sign of a break in. I had given my “maid’s boyfriend” theory to R. because when I asked R, was there any sign of a break in? R said “no, but the thief could have used a master key”. So here’s my drift. One, would a thief just take the money and leave the wallet? Two, well I am not entirely sure, which door R said was left hanging open, need to clarify on that, but if the outside gate was open that raises a question as to how does the thief knows how to open the automatic gate? And three, if it’s a master key that was used, how did the thief know which master key to use? And that the door lock should have some scratches there, complimentary of a new key. I didn’t mention three to R though, maybe I should. But then again, I don’t know. He might not notice. And sometimes master keys don’t have to be new. But anyway the maid is the most possible suspect. The maid could be innocent if she had a boyfriend over that night, (who took the stuff without her knowledge) hence that explains the open door. When R got home suddenly, the maid could have ushered her boyfriend into her room and let him out when the coast was clear, as R said the maid was still awake when he got home. But I don’t know its all-mere speculation.
Well, on another note, tutorials are almost over, all that is left is Constitutional & Administrative Law (C&A), on Friday, which should be quite easy as it covers the Human Rights Act (HRA) section 3 & 4. A ll tutorials were okay, besides E&T, which I have complained about before. (It was still horrible even though I prepared and understood this tutorial..
Ms Sandy kept deviating and asking all sorts of questions, and as I didn’t read Lord Wilkinson Browne’s judgement in Tinsley v Miligan it was worse, couldn’t go online to look for it, sigh). Anyway I survived Company ahhaha and Land (this was boring, she was like giving us all the answers instead, don’t mention me, not even the others had much of a chance to talk, she was like Mr Joseph, well its not bad, but when I’m prepared I want to talk.. But anyway that’s done and over with) so that’s all for the week I suppose. Nothing new. Besides the fact, that I will have some un-assessed written work due soon. In another week or two. Sigh
I bought a Detective Conan Comic today; I am collecting, so I bought the book. Meng saw it outside 7-eleven (SJ has one now, just opened a few shops from Tuna Twist) and he said that he thought that I would buy it and he was right haha.. It was really a coincidence, I was walking to the ADP building and he back, and he saw the book and thought that, and we met midway, a few seconds after he thought of that. Haha thinking of the devil haha..
Also that fellow is so blur, must be his exams, he wanted to call Eugene but ended up calling me. Haha, and my otousan answered the phone. Anyway that happened to me before, so who am I to laugh? Last time when I wanted to call Meng I tercall Huey (only the last 3 digits were different..) instead. Hahah I remembered that there was once I wanted to call otosan’s office but tercall kean sheng.(the numbers are quite similar)
Haha lucky I realized and hung up before anyone answered. Anyway, you can’t blame me for my blurness, all those that I mixed up, had very simliar numbers. Meng and Huey’s number are only 3 numbers different. I noticed that this usually happens only when one remembers phone numbers, namely house numbers haha.. Well we are all getting old no?
Anyway, I have been posting quite frequently this pass few days, so I guess that’s all for now. Am quite tired as I can’t take naps due to the noisy neighbours, and I played a bit of “bball” (basketball as Eugene calls it) today. Haha. So am going to bed, will just post this in college tomorrow. Signing off. Matta ne!
