Daily: Christmas wish list (1 Comment)
December is in a few days! I guess it’s time for this sort of post. I hope I’m not too late. *lol* I also hope that at least one of my online buddies would grant one or some of my wishes. ^.^ Fufufu~ This is supposed to be only for LJ, but I slightly edited it for this blog.
step one: make a post (public, friends-locked, filtered…whatever you’re comfortable with) to your LJ/blog. the post should contain your list of 10 holiday wishes.
the wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fandom-related (”i’d love a ______ icon that’s just for me”) to medium (”i wish for _____ on DVD”) to really big (”all i want for christmas is a new car/computer/house/TV.”). the important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.
if you wish for real life things (not fics or icons), make sure you include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it’s your address or just your email address where santa (or one of his elves) could get in touch with you.
also, make sure you post some version of these guidelines in your LJ/blog or link to this post so that the holiday joy will spread.
step two: surf around your friends list (or friends’ friends, or just random journals) to see who has posted their list.
here’s the important part — if you see a wish you can grant, and it’s in your heart to do so, make someone’s wish come true. sometimes someone’s trash is another’s treasure, and if you have a leather jacket you don’t want or a gift certificate you won’t use — do it.
you need not spend money on these wishes unless you want to. the point isn’t to put people out, it’s to provide everyone a chance to be someone else’s holiday elf — to spread the joy. gifts can be made anonymously or not — it’s your call.
there are no rules with this project, no guarantees, and no strings attached. give, and you might receive. and you’ll have the joy of knowing you made someone’s holiday special.
Here’s my wish list! ^_^
1. VCD/DVD/PC-format copy of M Butterfly.
2. Christmas cards from those who live in other countries XDDD
3. Donations for a 4GB Memory Stick Pro Duo. ^.^
4. Ikuta Toma mood theme!!! :DDD
5. Blast translators (even for just 2 projects is alright)
6. Silver earrings XDDD
7. Liar Game in PC-format video
8. Poppy Z. Brite books (except Lost Souls)
9. Link-back to my blog (exchanging links is good for me ^_^ )
10. Tongue rings/Locks for tongue rings

Daily: It’s cold today (2 Comments)
The temperature indicator on my AC reads 26oC. *coughs* That only happens when my AC is on. O_o The weather is really weird. It’s been raining non-stop since 3 hours ago even.
Is the end of the world near? Typhoons come and go… And come back. Then there’s the earthquake…
Man, I need to sleep already.
I am not making sense anymore. November 27, 2007
Daily, Jdramas, Plugs: Earthquake :P (2 Comments)
There was an earthquake about an hour and a half ago. My room’s in the 3rd floor, so I really felt it. ^_^;;; I thought there was just a huge truck passing by. Then when I felt my room shake for 3 more times I knew it was already an earthquake. XP I think that worsened the headache I’m having now. My monitor suddenly shook while I was reading my LJ flist.
I happen to come across this YouTube user who has a lot of old Pinoy TV commercials. “AnWala akong maisip na old commercial na gusto makita. Haha~ ^_^V
I can’t wait for my download of Nobuta wo Produce Special to finish. I want to burn this series already.

Daily: Blogs + Multiply vs VOX (4 Comments)
I unsubscribed some journals from my Google Reader. Reasons:
1. I’m too busy right now to read them.
2. I found other blogs that are more interesting than theirs.
3. Comments are just one-way.
4. I’m tired of reading entries that aren’t really for or about themselves, but because they blog for others.
5. They didn’t update for months.
Further explanations:
For #3, I comment at some of their posts, but they NEVER do with mine. I’m not expecting people I leave comments with to do the same with mine. I only find that leaving comments and visiting blogs are a way to meet people or make new online buddies. Heh~ I guess my blog’s way below their standards? I know my posts are very uninteresting, but I try. I should firmly believe that not everyone’s like me… Someone who’s very open-minded and would read about various things.
For #4, I think some of you already know what I mean. Those are usually the sort of people have the tendency to stop blogging because they feel no one’s reading their blog/s. *lol* Alright, enough about the blog dramas “and assumptions.” XD Yesterday, my parents and I sorted through some of our cabinets to look for stuff we don’t need anymore. We almost cleared out the whole drawer under my closet. *lol* We’ll have a garage sale this Friday in Merville. I was told it’s the holiday, so it would be great if you guys would check out our stuff. I’m planning on putting most of them online. I’m still debating whether to put them in Multiply or VOX. I also have another ads site, but it’s mostly for my anime, dramas, and other media stuff. I am confused. I don’t have much time to think since the garage sale is this coming Friday already. Let’s see if I can choose among the two if I make a list of their advantages and disadvantages.
Multiply’s advantages:
1. More Philippine-based sellers and buyers tread there.
2. Pictures can be uploaded through email
3. Then pictures can be sorted by album and tags.
4. There are other features than just blogs and photo albums.
5. There are active groups for Philippine-based sellers and buyers.
Multiply’s disadvantages:
1. The pre-made templates aren’t my type.
2. Pictures do not show 95-99% of the time when I embed some in my blog.
3. Non-Multiply users can’t comment.
4. Instead of automatically placing the “description” of the picture, it becomes the “title.” I would have to fix that one by one if that happens. (People who are OC with their pictures might know what I mean. *lol* )
VOX’s advantages:
1. They have more templates choices.
2. Places the description of the picture in the “description” body. I won’t have to edit them one by one anymore. ^_^
3. No problems hotlinking images from there.
4. Albums/Collections and tags are used to group pictures.
VOX’s disadvantages:
1. Filipinos hardly know of VOX.
2. You have to make a blog about new collections/albums for visitors to know of your updates.
3. Non-VOX users can’t comment.
4. Descriptions for albums/collections can’t be added unless you blog about it.
Those are all I can think of now. Multiply wins with having 5 advantages than VOX’s 4. I want to choose Multiply, but I’m keen on pre-made templates. The CSS of Multiply is slightly confusing and hard. I think it’s harder than LJ’s. XP But this is business and not something for personal use like my gallery. I have to keep in mind that there are more Filipino-users in Multiply. Anyway, since I decided to keep for you as a media distro site, Multiply it is then. I will just make a hyukta.net url for it. ^_^
Oh, for you to have an idea what I mean by Multiply disadvantage #2, here are pictures of a dress I’m itching to buy. These are hotlinked from Multiply. If it doesn’t show, then you already know what I mean. *lol* If it does, then Multiply’s buggy on hotlinking then. ^^;

Anime & Manga, Plugs: 2 Code Geass fanarts (2 Comments)
I like these Code Geass fanarts. They’re pretty. *_*
(Fanart by http://iyou-net.com/poppo/)
The fanart of this person would pass for the real deal except
that the all the females’ boobies were bigger than how Clamp draws them. XD
