Exam jokes and live-action adaptations (1 Comment)


If I joked in our quizzes or exams in college, I bet I would have been in big trouble. XD But in high school I always made fun of our seatworks in Christian class. *lol* I’m bad.


Expand the equation

The hangman equation
Hangman in Calculus

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles FTW!
TMNT! XD


This came from the Top 10 Most Hilarious Test Answers. ^_^ Patapete blogged about it days ago.

Now for the live action series/dramas/movies I wanted to blog about. I’m looking forward to most of these (actually all of them as I am curious!). First off is Mahou Sensei Negima! Live Action. A trailer is out. I found the Mahou Sensei Negima video from this blog. I’m not really impressed and I feel like I got excited for NOTHING. Negi’s hair looks bad. ~_~

Legend of Kamui Good news to Kenichi Matsuyama (L of Death and Shin in Nana) fans! Aside from his upcoming movie, L, look forward to the live-action adaptation of Kamui Gaiden. Kamui Gaiden contains the side stories to the original Legend of Kamui manga. Yōichi Sai will direct the movie. He’s best known for his work Chi to Hone. The shooting will start this November and release will be on 2009. (Source: ANN) I didn’t really like him as Shin in Nana though he was good in the Death Note movies. ^_^ I can’t wait to see him in L and in this movie too. The next movie (I bet some of you will be surprised and won’t be too happy) is Voltron: Defender of the Universe. It’s said that with the success of the Transformers (2007) movie, New Regency Productions’ interest in doing this has increased. Justine Marks is the scriptwriter for this live-action. His plot description — …a post-apocalyptic tale set in New York City and Mexico. Five ragtag survivors of an alien attack band together and end up piloting the five lion-shaped robots that combine and form the massive sword-wielding Voltron that helps battle Earth’s invaders. — I think the movie will be more fun if he stuck with the original plot instead of making up one and just using the lion robots. ~_~

City Hunter, after several adaptations, there will be another but a TV series this time. The main actor will be Jung Woo-sung. I think I have the City Hunter anime and manga. I hope I can get around to watching the anime before the series is shown. A movie adaptation for Higurashi no Naku Koro ni will be shown on 2008. It’s a suspense/thriller story which makes me want to see. There are ‘fans’ though who are against this movie. They even have a petition to stop the movie production.

Mousou Shoujo Otaku Kei will have a live-action adaptation! For those who haven’t heard of this title, based on ANN — The romantic comedy manga series centers around an obsessive fujoshi (female fan of manga and novels featuring male-male relationships) who falls in love with a “normal” classmate in their first year in high school. — This will be a fun watch! I hope it’s a series. ^_^V The news doesn’t say whether this will be a movie or series.

BL FANS! The ff. is major news for you. XD I got excited when I read about two BL titles being made into live action movies. First is Takumi-kun. Since Takumi-kun is a collection of novels, the movie will be based tentatively on its first story. The second is Ai no Kotodama by Konno Keiko. Here’s a short description of the 2-volume story:

After graduating from high school, Tachibana and Otani have finally confessed their love for each other and are living together. However, their co-habitation is totally ruined when they run into an old high school buddy, Yuki. Otani has always been suspicious of the friendship between Tachibana and Yuki. And honestly, his suspicions may not be that far off… –B-U Manga


Hopefully when they’re released, they’ll be ripped and subbed right away unlike Boys Love. ^_^V For old news (I say old because I bet I’m the last to know of this among my LJ friends who are fellow fans), China will create a live-action TV series of THE PRINCE OF TENNIS. O_o (Source: ANN)

Other series and movies I want to mention, but won’t go to details anymore are Hataraki Man, Robotech, and Speed Racer (yes, there’s finally news on this!)

Sources aside from ANN are this, this, and this. ^_^

Fire, fake phones, and your hair (1 Comment)


Transformer on fire This happened one night last month. The transformer on an electrical post across the street was suddenly on fire. At first I wasn’t aware, but Allie was barking and barking, our neighbors were noisy, and there was even a loud engine (that was actually from a firetruck). I peeked outside and saw what was all the commotion about. I didn’t see the flames right away. It was only smoking as the firemen tried to put the fire out. Meralco was already called for, but with all the traffic, they didn’t arrive here as quickly as they should have. (Read more)

This makes me remember the time when our house almost burned down. :( I barely talked in school and no one hardly believed me when I said about the incident. That also reminds of the Romeo and Juliet drama. Juri wouldn’t believe Hiromichi when he said that his father ran away from home and his mom is terribly sick. The drama is probably too hard to believe. I guess it’s the same way with most of my classmates. They probably think that it’s unlikely to happen to me and my family. -_-

Zalbollae
Zalbollae cigs


This is a Korean cigarette as I see from the text on the bottom of the box. ^^; Its design is similar to that of Marlboro. *lol* There are others of this here. The later part of that post has some pictures of fake cellphones. The Nokia phones could hardly fool you if you aren’t looking properly at the name on its casing. The problem is if its case can easily be changed. X_X

My brother and I watched the PoT Live Action Movie this early, early, early morning/last night. 8) Around 2:30, I think. The movie’s a waste of time. Ugh~ I was happy seeing Buchou and Echizen though. Haha~ I felt the ♥. XD Their drama between each other made me say to my brother, “They’re like boyfriend-boyfriend.” *lol* Anyway, I said this movie’s a waste of time because the storyline wasn’t done properly. The movie started with Ryoma’s arrival from the US and becomes a new member of the team. They shouldn’t have done this as it confuses the story. The events in the movie feel like they happened in a week. My brother said that the movie’s probably low-budget. ^_^V I don’t know about that. I didn’t find out about this movie until a trader offered this to me.

I’ve seen too many movies lately. I haven’t seen Transformers yet. I might as well download it when I don’t get the chance to go out and watch it. My Dad setup four speakers in the living room and I want to try them out while watching a movie. We only had 2 speakers there back then and I use it whenever I play PS2 games. Haha~

I’m going to finish one or two from my to-do list before our band practice later. I only found out about the practice. :/ Oh! Before I finish this, I want to ask… When you get old and you start losing hair, will you get a hair replacement?

I can stop worrying now (0 Comments)



You are The Moon


Hope, expectation, Bright promises.
The Moon is a card of magic and mystery – when prominent you know that nothing is as it seems, particularly when it concerns relationships. All logic is thrown out the window.
The Moon is all about visions and illusions, madness, genius and poetry. This is a card that has to do with sleep, and so with both dreams and nightmares. It is a scary card in that it warns that there might be hidden enemies, tricks and falsehoods. But it should also be remembered that this is a card of great creativity, of powerful magic, primal feelings and intuition. You may be going through a time of emotional and mental trial; if you have any past mental problems, you must be vigilant in taking your medication but avoid drugs or alcohol, as abuse of either will cause them irreparable damage. This time however, can also result in great creativity, psychic powers, visions and insight. You can and should trust your intuition.

What Tarot Card are You?
Take the Test to Find Out.


I finished watching PoT the other day. ^_^ I should have finished watching the series back then. The episodes after the US-Japan tournament has awaken the yaoi-fangirl in me. I haven’t been reading much yaoi lately, you see. Oh, except Junjou Karen. ^^; There are obvious hints of InuixKaidoh, TezuFuji, and (my favorite) TezuRyo in the last 10-ish episodes of the series. :O It’s also good that I finished it when the OAV is already showing. ^_^ I wasn’t too thrilled when Ryoma was to play in the US Open. I know that it’s a great opportunity for a serious tennis player, but nothing beats being with your teammates. When Ryoma got back from the US Open and just in time for the Nationals, it made me happy. I’m loving the OAV. ♥ ♥ Episode 7 is freaking HILARIOUS! *roflmao*

Last Thursday, Mac and I went to NBC Engineering Office is Makati Cinema Square. Engr. Balmori (his wife is a pamangkin of my mom) recommended that office for our OJT. I went there, hurrying, only to get rejected. They preferred that we go there everyday. If we do that, we’ll be done in a week and the OJT requirement for our class will be totally pointless. X_X Our OJT requirements are very different among other schools. Our OJT isn’t even a separate course. It’s only a class requirement. I explained to the lady how our OJT goes, but she didn’t understand (nor even tried to). So I made it somewhat obvious that I don’t care about their office anymore. They should be grateful that we wouldn’t be bothering them everyday. Also, our school doesn’t allow us to go to offices that give allowances. :P We only need their time. I’m bugging my dad to look for construction sites through his contacts. I plan to go to where me, Wally, and Balao can relate to. We’re EnSE students after all. We have’s a groupmate who’s CE student though. I kind of dislike him because he seems arrogant. I guess it’s only the way he looks. It’s too early to tell anyway. :P He asked for my number after we talked with Engr. Balmori. He said he knows of a site we can go to.

High-neck Crop Jacket50s Pinup Rockabilly Polkadot Crop Top
I want these two tops!
(If one of the two pictures isn’t showing up, it’s Imageshack’s fault.)


The High-neck Crop Jacket (the first thumbnail) may seem a bit weird, but I like how it is different among the usual crop jackets. Hehe~ Then, the 50s-style top… Who wouldn’t like that!? It’s sexy. I ain’t sexy. Not only am I wishing for that top, I also wish I’m sexy to wear that! X_X

Classes were shitty yesterday. I was very late for Construction Project Management class. When I got there, my classmates told me that Engr. Balmori will arrive by 2:15PM. *gah* Fortunate of me for not being late. But trying to take that 15-minute walk in 5 minutes, walking under the extreme heat, and carrying a heavy bag almost killed me. ~_~ Then in Irrigation class, our report was doomed when we couldn’t open our Powerpoint presentation. Mark used an OpenOffice program, but I didn’t have that in the laptop. We just showed our MSWord document in fullscreen. ^^; Also I never got to do our assignment. Mark didn’t get to do it either. We were worried over our report. I got pissed off that damn assignment. The teacher said she would check it if we answered it in our notebooks. A sheet of bond paper isn’t a notebook, my oh-so-smart classmates! >_< I was surprised they passed it. Marco, who I even had to bring my very thick and heavy Engineering Wastewater book for some time ago, didn’t even ask me about it. I know we got to worry for our own, but I want to believe that my kindness will not go unrewarded. Be it the same or not. I fear I’m going to fail that subject due to poor class participation even though I worked on that damn report. I doubt our techer knows that’s my share of work.

The sucky thing about Globe DSL is that you have turn it off then on everyday. Unlike pldtDSL, the modem’s off only when electricity is temporarily out.

This summer seems to be the hottest (0 Comments)



O_O What’s with her hair!?
(More pictures from the Spiderman 3 premier in Sweden)


Last April 27, we had a gig in Salts and Spirits Bar with CBI. Hopskatch was supposed to play with them, but they couldn’t make it. We had to fill in. The bar is too far from our place. X_X But worth going to though because the bar is really nice, the stage is spacious, and the equipment isn’t what you’ll mostly find in other bars. The owner is a foreigner. His name’s Andrew. I can’t say if he’s an American or European. Not like it matters anyway. :P The only pictures I have from that night is of the stage. ^^; Not one of the people I invited came, so we couldn’t ask anyone to take pictures of us. *sweatdrop* There were a group of guys there who cheered us on, btw. ^_^ When we went to the owner to say thanks before we left, the guys said, “Idol namin yung naka-pula!” Meaning they idolize the one in red. ^^; The one in red that night was me. *rofl* They might be idolizing my guitar instead. Haha~ Some of them took pictures and videos. I wish I had the chance to ask them for those. I think Andrew took a video of us. I want to ask, but I’m too shy. He might think, “Why the hell would I take a video of your performance!?” ~_~

I finally decided to continue watching PoT. I just got done with the US-Japan tennis tournament. I can’t wait to finish this, so I can start with the Nationals Chapter and other new series. Lovely Complex will be included in my watch list. Maybe I should watch a Japanese drama too. Should choose from my stuff soon.

I did some minor updates with the site. I plan to install FeedWordPress and see if it really does the job I think it does. ^^; I have been posting too much and having fun in my VOX. Btw, the name of my VOX site is Here is No Why. It’s a title to one of Smashing Pumpkins’ songs. I should customize a banner for that soon. ^_^

Diskette handbag (0 Comments)


Diskette handbag from FractalSpin
What a weird bag from FractalSpin. o_O


I think I have everything prepared for finals later except myself. I know the drainage system, but I don’t know about the water supply. Shiet. I was busy talking to whoever’s beside me, texting, or reading about other topics in our notes. ^_^;

As soon as everything’s over, I’ll get back to anime and manga blogging. Even editing PoT doujinshi. Anyway, I have to get ready. I just got the torrent for Inu Yasha which, sadly, I haven’t finished downloading all the episodes. I need episodes 112+. I also need to finish the Ghost Rider megapack from Demonoid, so I could burn it already.

DokiDoki Survival ~Sanroku no Mystic~ (0 Comments)


Damn, this game must be available somewhere in the bootleg shops. XD

Haha~ Sorry, I can’t afford original games at the moment. Besides, I don’t think any store here sells original Japanese PS2 games.
