Bored...

Well, a while back, I started playing Percussion Freaks / Drum Mania. I suddenly got interested in playing the drum. So, I play Percussion Freaks 10th mix at Star Factory, the arcade near my house. I'm not that good at the game though, my max level is around 25/99 with the bass drum on auto... Unfortunately, the latest version of the game isn't available at Star Factory T_T

Another game I'm interested in is Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 3, which came out about a month or two back. It's a highway racing game in which you can tune your car to make it faster. It has quite a few tracks that one can race on. This game, however, is quite expensive, thus, although I want to play it, I can't...

Extra: Just to rub it in, HY. Haha, my 5k Allen deck defeated your 8k Mashirito & 6k Power type Gintoki(it is 6k power type right?) ^_^ To those who're reading this and don't understand, I'm talking about Jump Ultimate Stars which my class play really REALLY frequently ^-^

*Yawn*

It's being boring, not having any good game to play recently... Add the fact that the 2nd semester has started and assignments are coming, I've not in the mood to do anything at all.

Well, today's the usual, playing JUS in school. Man, we've come pretty far. We're all(well, most of us anyway) pretty good. Finding new combos, supports and effects to use, I think we've come quite far. Remembering the days where we seldom used support... Now, after seeing a JUS article on a wiki, ZF thought of creating our own version of a JUS wiki. Hmm... It'll be interesting, if we're really going to do a wiki on JUS... Anyway, if we ever get round to do it, I'll be sure to put the link up here :)

Some anime reviews by me XP

Kaze no Stigma & School Days
I've been watching a few animes in these last few days and I'll be talking about these 2 animes today ^_^

1st up,
Kaze no Stigma
This anime is about Kazuma Kannagi who, although being born in a family of outstanding En-Jutsushis(fire mages), is unable to use En-Jutsu. He loses to Ayano Kannagi in a battle and she gets Enraiha, the family's sacred sword, and he gets kicked out of the family for being so weak. Four years down the road, he returns, changing his name to Kazuma Yagami, as a skilled Fu-Jutsushi(wind mage). As a Fu-Jutsushi, he is really powerful, even being able to defeat his father, Genma Kannagi, the strongest En-Jutsushi in the family. He has entered a contract with the Kaze no Seirei-Ou, the Wind Spirit Lord. Thanks to that, Kazuma is able to draw upon all wind spirits in the atmosphere, which can amplify his powers, and allow him to heal his wounds.

Well, I don't want to spoil the anime for you, so I'm going to stop here.
Overall, not a bad anime to watch. Interesting plot. It starts off interestingly, has comedy episodes in the middle(episode 18 takes the cake) and turns a little darker later on(much later).


School Days
Let me say this first. This is such a wrong anime and I'm NOT recommending people to watch it. I'm recommending people NOT to watch it. Though it starts off normally(I thought it was kind of like Rumbling Hearts at first), it turns extremely wrong. The main character, Makoto Itou, ends up with relationships with about 7 people. The bastard.

Although at first, it was the other characters pushing themselves on him(although its true he didn't resist), he becomes a SM later on and does it with around 7 people. And its not just once in some cases. After one of his first becomes pregnant, he gets shunned when he doesn't want to take responsibility and such. This anime ends as Sekai Saionji, the one who got pregnant, stabs Makoto when he refuses to take responsibility for the child and even makes out with Kotonoha Katsura, his first love but got bored of later on, in front of Sekai. Kotonoha, who went mad for a period after Makoto breaks up with her, after seeing Makoto killed, goes mad again. She calls Sekai out on to the school's rooftop on the same night, after beheading Makoto to keep with her forever =.= , and claims that Sekai's only pretending to be pregnant. The two cross knifes, Sekai using a kitchen knife and Kotonoha using a chopper. Kotonoha "wins" and kills Sekai, and opens her stomach to check if Sekai was indeed pregnant. She says that Sekai was indeed lying about being pregnant... The anime ends with Kotonoha drifting off in her family's boat with Makoto's head in her arms...

Gross eh? This anime is so wrong. I never thought that this anime would be so W. R. O. N. G. @_@ I am so disgusted by this anime.

P.S. I know my reviewing/summary skills aren't so good.

Edit: Added a music player to my blog and adopted a pet ^_^

Edit2: Added a hit counter as well ^_^

Thailand?

Meh, I didn't feel like posting this past depressing week. With the holidays ending next week, I'm feeling a little desperate. I haven't much this holiday and it's already ending T_T

Well, I said that I would post about my trip to Thailand, but honestly, it was practically shopping most of the time. At most, I could say where I went to shop. Boring stuff to most if not all of you. Thus, my lack of will to post.

Well anyway, I'm finally going to post about my trip now.



Thailand
=====1st day? Or is it night?=====
Leaving at around 12 (which explains why I didn't see Isaac asking me to get him fried mangoes at 1+), my family and I (it's a family trip no duh) took a taxi to the budget terminal. Arriving way too early, we had to wait over 1/2 hour til the counter opened and we could get our tickets. As early as we were, there were actually people who came earlier than us. Well whatever, the plane took around 3/2 hours to reach there. Upon reaching, we took a taxi to the hotel which cost around 300 Baht (about S$13). By the time we finished setting our things down in the hotel, it was pretty late already. We went to a nearby Indian Thai restaurant(don't know if you can call it a restaurant) to eat.

End of 1st day/night.

=====2nd day? Well it's a Friday either way=====
Ok. From this day forward I don't remember where we went, or when we went, so I'll just say whatever I can remember. Went to Platinum, Pratunam and the shops all around them and our hotel. Nothing too interesting...

Yea, and there was this woman who helped us with some directions though she, irritatingly, kept on asking us to go to a jewel shop... =_=

We did go to the four-faced buddha to pray for luck that evening/night.

=====Saturday=====
The weekend. This is when the weekend market starts. Obvious from its name, it opens only on weekends. Before we reached there, while crossing a bridge (yea, people set up shops there too), there was this guy who sold figurines cheap there. I got a Majin Vegeta figurine from him at B 50. I'll put up a picture of it later when I manage to take a decent picture of it with my handphone. The weekend market(due to the length, I'll going to call it WM from here on) is quite big. Well anyway, nothing much to say as we were just shopping all the way there.

Oh yea, and we went to Pantip, a shopping centre dedicated to computer stuff(think Sim Lim or Funan). Obviously, we only window-shopped there(I didn't want to bring computer stuff back [might break or get damaged on the way, plus they might not work]). Ate at the A&W's there. Man, they make the best waffles and ice-cream. NOt to mention the chicken's good too(might even be better than KFC's chicken). The root beer's good too ^_^

=====Sunday=====
Went to MBK(I think that's the name, can't remember clearly though >_<). There was the ONLY arcade out of all the shopping centres we went to T_T Although the arcade wasn't all bad, it wasn't good either. It had quite a few figurine shops as well. The very same Vegeta figurine I saw and got near the weekend market for B 50 was on sale for B 350 there. Anyway, I got a pair of Gundam Seed Destiny characters from there for B 1000(S$45). I don't know if that's cheap, normal or expensive though. The same as above, I'll put up a picture of them once I get a good shot with my handphone.

=====Monday=====
Nothing much on the last day. Some last minute shopping, then off to the airport(the new one) and back to Singapore.


Ah, I've finally posted about my trip to Thailand. Sorry for the wait :P

Monday, October 01, 2007

I'm back!

Haha. I'm back in Singapore :) Just reached home at 7. When to shower and such before coming online. Buggers, all spamming in my tagboard. And don't all ask so late for stuff! One even dare ask me yesterday! I already went for a few days already and going to come back then ask me... @_@

Well, Thailand was interesting. I'm kinda tired tonight so I'll leave talking about Thailand tomorrow if I feel like it XP So don't have your hopes up that there's something to look out or wait for >_<
