Daily: You think I’m fine. (2 Comments)
We want things to happen the way we want it, but that rarely happens. It would be if we give our all even if it comes to the point of making a fool of ourselves or even creating enemies. There will be sacrifices, they say, but should it be that way? If there are people to help, guide, strengthen, and be there for us, should we still have to suffer humiliation and regret?
Usually, the first people who are there for us are our family and friends. I have no problems with my family. I love them. Next is Mac who is not only my boyfriend, but is also my SOUL BUDDY. XD We fight oftentimes, but that’s just our opinions clashing. *lol* As for friends… I DON’T HAVE FRIENDS. *ROFLMAO* Online friends are a different matter though. I’m talking about rl friends. ^_^ I guess some of you may already know where I am getting at. If you’re confused, well, just try to understand. Haha~ ^_^
Even with those important people in my heart, I still find myself LONELY. It’s one thing I hate to think about nor even talk about. But I can’t always run away from this feeling.
Back in HS, I had very dear classmates. I don’t believe I had a permanent circle of friends then. I just got to hang out with a lot of people. Some of them are happy-go-lucky, but surprisingly, they seem to be those who are good listeners or who give good advices. I know who make good friends — those who are with you from the start ’til the end — and who are just there when it is already too late for you. :/ My social life didn’t matter to me that time because I was happy. I was satisfied by the simple joy of being with them. There was always someone I could confide in. Not until college came that I felt I was only trying hard to make myself happy.
During first year, the girls in our class became my friends. Well, I thought they were. Either they got tired of me or I just couldn’t cope with them. They left me out of the group, but I tried hard to not to let it get to me. The boys in our class though were nice. I didn’t hang with them at first, but I started to after the not-so-happy times with the girls. It was cool though because we got along pretty well. We ate out, they even met my high school friends… They’re really cool. They still keep in touch with me even after we graduated.
Even though I came from an all-girls school, it’s so odd I was and still able to get along with guys. Aside from them college boys *lol*, there were some of my high school friends who I still keep in touch with. Before I go on, let me tell you about the six basic groups of non-romantic human relationships:
Unknown — people you don’t know. That’s pretty much obvious.
Acquaintance — you know their names and that’s all.
Colleague — people you go to work or school with. They’re like acquaintances.
Friend — you know them, share secrets with, or hang out with them…
Partner in Crime – people you frequently hang out with; probably those you find more important than just your friends. ^_^
Soul Buddy — you do everything with this person or persons. Similar to lovers. *lol* Of course I kid! XD

I used to have a PIC (Partner in Crime), but now they are always MIA. They have a bajillion reasons for not “being there” anymore. Work is one. Others, I dunno. But I know there are. People are good at that anyway. Not everyone has uber long patience for one’s excuses. Work — either in an office or a school work — is sometimes a good excuse. Note the word sometimes. :/
With my ex-PICs, I felt special. But in the end, after so much, I was the one running after them. My invitations were oftentimes ignored or refused. It sometimes crossed my mind that they will only talk to me when they need something or when they’re bored. They are only there AT THE LAST MINUTE after everything has been done. They are hardly or NEVER there during my best and bad times. It takes a lot of poking for them to notice me. It’s so hard to strengthen the bond of the relationship when they do not want to be involved. *sighs* I find myself not knowing what to do anymore, but just… FORGET ABOUT IT.
I don’t want to make a fool of myself anymore.
I’m tired of trying to be the friend.
People will take advantage of who they know are tough, since they know they’ll be able to move on.
Hopefully this is the last time I’m blogging about this matter.
To those who are going to LomoMarketManila later, see you.

Daily: Love cats? Read this (1 Comment)
This news is a bit old, but I suggest you read it in case you haven’t heard about it. To give you an idea what is it about before clicking on the link:
Thousands of pet cats in Beijing are being abandoned by their owners and sent to die in secretive government pounds as China mounts an aggressive drive to clean up the capital in preparation for the Olympic Games.
Some people have already mentioned of boycotting the Olympic games due to this. Man, those poor cats. Couldn’t they do something better than what they’re doing now about controlling the diseases that they say the cats are spreading? XP I’m not too much fond of cats, but I like animals and they’re not supposed to be treated cruelly.

Music: Zock On! and Love Paradox (2 Comments)
I wouldn’t have found out about the new single of Teriyaki Boyz – Zock On! if it weren’t for Arvy. XD Thanks for streaming mv, btw. Hehe~ These are
(There are 3 screenshots, but Imageshack is being weird and won’t show the supposedly first screenshot atm.) Busta Rhymes is missing. He’s not on the video background and he wasn’t mentioned even. I wonder why. :/ It would have been a great live performance if Pharell was actually there. That would be hot. :DDD Pharell and Ilmari!!! ♥ ♥ ♥
Leah Dizon’s coming out with a new single Love Paradox by the end of March. The music video has been out for some time too. Hopefully she’ll do live performances of the song soon. ^_^
It seems very different from her previous music videos. Song-wise, I don’t like it much. Haha~ But thumbs up on her pretty face. XD
Next on my download are Zock On! and Laruku’s Drink It Down (did I get the title right? ^^;;; ).
I want to embed videos here, but I keep getting an error about my xhtml being invalid everytime I do so. Anyone know how to fix that? I don’t know what to put in the header anymore. -_-

Daily: Have you ever heard of ’salmoning’? (0 Comments)
This MonetarySalmon caught me by surprise. Anyone else from my friends list that got “salmoned” before?
[08:17] MonetarySalmon: ’tis sad news indeed.
[08:19] MonetarySalmon: Hahaha.
[08:19] MonetarySalmon: Have you been salmoned before?
[08:20] yuzuriha04: what?
[08:21] MonetarySalmon: “Salmoning”.
[08:21] MonetarySalmon: You’re on Livejournal, right?
[08:21] MonetarySalmon: So’m I.
[08:21] MonetarySalmon: There’s a bot called “Salmon” that looks at recent posters and finds online AIM users in their profiles. What it does then is IM both people.
[08:21] MonetarySalmon: And hook them up through a rerouting IM service, in this case “MonetarySalmon”.
[08:21] yuzuriha04: and this is something through LJ?
[08:22] yuzuriha04: it’s the first time I’ve heard of such. LOL
[08:22] MonetarySalmon: It’s somebody manipulating the information that LJ provides, yes.
[08:22] MonetarySalmon: There’s a community for it, even.
[08:22] MonetarySalmon: http://themissinghat.livejournal.com/
[08:22] MonetarySalmon: I am Fax_Celestis on LJ through past.
[08:23] yuzuriha04: how does manipulating information go about?
[08:24] MonetarySalmon: Whenever someone posts on LJ, which examines salmon, in order to see, if there is a goal handle, which is registered in its profile, and if so, if this user at present on-line its.
[08:24] MonetarySalmon: If it sends on-line ITS, it this person IN and at the same time sends to a person IN, who announced close-simultaneously.
[08:24] MonetarySalmon: It can examine or cannot possibly not against the LJ interests, which registers, to find in order to try, compatible people.
[08:24] MonetarySalmon: I am not really surely the salmon am as intelligent.
[08:24] MonetarySalmon: Still I know the purpose the experiment, but am interesting cursed it.
[08:25] yuzuriha04: where are you from?
[08:25] MonetarySalmon: California.
[08:25] MonetarySalmon: I am a play designer by trade. It?
[08:25] yuzuriha04: It?
[08:26] MonetarySalmon: ?
[08:26] yuzuriha04: what do you mean by It? LOL! sorry, i am quite surprised with this salmon thing
[08:27] MonetarySalmon: It is not that. Did I mean where’re?
[08:27] yuzuriha04: uhh, maybe? haha i dunno
[08:28] MonetarySalmon: In any case. Is your name LJ?
[08:29] yuzuriha04: nope. LJ = LiveJournal
[08:29] MonetarySalmon: Well.
[08:30] yuzuriha04: this is weird and kinda funny LOL
[08:30] yuzuriha04: so your IM nick isn’t really MonetarySalmon?
[08:30] Meebo Message: Could not connect to network.
[08:30] yuzuriha04: so your IM nick isn’t really MonetarySalmon?
[08:30] MonetarySalmon: It is that.
[08:30] yuzuriha04: ah
[08:30] MonetarySalmon: Nope.
[08:30] MonetarySalmon: That is offered.
[08:30] MonetarySalmon: I say FaxCelestis which is ardently.
[08:31] yuzuriha04: ooh
[08:31] MonetarySalmon: ?
[08:31] yuzuriha04: nothing. i was just curious. i was looking thru the LJ comm. trying to understand this salmon thing
[08:32] yuzuriha04: well, you don’t seem as weird as what i’ve read there HAHAHHAHA sorry about that XD;;
[08:32] MonetarySalmon: I see.
[08:33] yuzuriha04: someone made you do this?
[08:33] MonetarySalmon: How so?
[08:34] yuzuriha04: i don’t know. i got the feeling? haha… i hardly get messages via aim
[08:35] MonetarySalmon: Exceeding this community, as for me as for really one receiving many items of information you do not know that it is the place.
[08:36] yuzuriha04: first time i’ve heard of it. i guess i’m the first to be “salmoned” among my LJ friends
[08:36] yuzuriha04: LOL
[08:37] MonetarySalmon: Namely, that of the point which starts.
[08:37] yuzuriha04: ah
[08:41] yuzuriha04: Okay, MonetarySalmon, it was nice chatting with you
[08:46] MonetarySalmon: Is that?
[08:47] yuzuriha04: Is that what?
[08:48] MonetarySalmon: No.
[08:48] yuzuriha04: haha
The English! X_X That was quite hard to undestand.
This salmoning thing is a bit confusing to understand or explain, so for those who couldn’t understand what went on, here’s my explanation — Someone on LJ makes two random people chat with each other on AIM. Usual targets are those who just posted on LJ while they’re also online in their AIM at the same time. MonetarySalmon isn’t really “MonetarySalmon’s” nick. I bet my nick to MonetarySalmon isn’t really yuzuriha04. ^_^ That’s what I understand from this salmoning. The LJ community that MonetarySalmon mentioned would probably give more information on this. This salmoning is pure nonsense, but it’s a bit funny and weird. XD;

Daily: Current popobes I have (0 Comments)
I’m not really into these cellphone straps/keychains. I just happen to like the characters they were adapted/copied from.
Popobe [2008-0316]v2 from http://hyukta.vox.com/
From left to right:
The bear with 3 eyes is probably original. :/
Spiderman is pitifully hanging from my DS Lite. ^_^;;;
Keroro? ^^
Optimus Prime waving his left hand; I use him as a necklace. *lol*
And, lastly, huge ULTRAMAN!!! I used to hang him on my bag before.
I saw a Doraemon popobe before, but the seller wouldn’t offer it to me anymore because it broke (an arm fell off). I hope I find it soon before these popobes become extremely hard to find.
