30/01/2011 - time to save money

today is so hot, i feel like im about to melt. and it's not even 40C yet, aparently. im allowed to turn my AC on but it shares the same control as my parent's room's AC, so i have to sneak in and steal it, too bothersome, until my comp starts to overheat, then ill do it.

anyway it's time for me to save money. now i figured im going to spend atleast $500 on games this yr, and not to mention the money spent on my bad KFC habit (which is going to KFC every monday on school weeks). which comes down to a guesstimation of $900 for the yr. now that's not a lot of money for someone who has a job and has a steady flow of income, but im not one of those ppl. i dont have a job as of now, i do get $40 a week from my parents but only on school weeks with more than 3 days of school. that's...$40x32weeks...=$1280. so i have, according to my guesstimation, $380left on misc purchases. believe me that's not a lot, when your in australia. so i hav decided on for atleast the first term or 2, im going to bring lunch instead of buying from the school cafeteria canteen.

aside from those FML-leading stories. i have beaten singularity again. i realized there's 3 endings instead of 2, lol. a didnt go replay the game 3 times to see them all, so i youtubed them. and they are the so pathetic i feels like a off-putting part of the game. and i usually dont mind endings too much in games. also the game encourages you to use ride shotguns so much, cuz it pwns everything. and it's weird that you were able to dilate time even without the TMD, but with a sniper rifle, wat da hell, it's like hold breath in COD or MOH, but instead it dilates time. it works since it's a pure single player game, but it just doesnt make sense, if u think about it. but a game is a game, i probably shouldnt take it into reality. meh.

i didnt anime at all, cuz im at the debate with myself that if i should continue to watch darker than black or not. thie first ep was kinda....terrible, almost off-putting. iv stopped after the first ep. instead i spent my time on mythbusters so i can reject reality and substitute my own. sry it had to be said xD.

26/01/2011 - boring title is boring

first of all, i apologize for skipping 2 blogs in a row. i was kinda busy doing other stuff so i didnt get enough time to blog, maybe i should just do a short blog instead if im busy, i think i can still spare 10min on each wedn and sunday even if im busy, i will try to do that.

actually even though i was gone for a week+ i dont think there's that much to blog about. but i did anime and i did game, as usual. i started and finished angel beats, but not until i finished it, only did i realize it's by the same writer as Air, and Clannad (and little buster, which is manga only). but it was much more of a comedy that those too. i actually thought it was predominantly a comedy, but the interview stated that it has a "romance/drama" off-spin to it. all in all, it's a great anime, i recommend it. aside from the fact they kinda failed at drawing firearms. and what the hell, [SPOILER] if u can make stuff outa dirt, stop making pistols [/SPOILER]. i also think they slightly rushed the art a bit, i dont see the art in this anime to be on-par to Clannad's, but slightly better than Air's. first anime i watched written by Maeda Jun with tears, lol.

on the games side from life,  i bought BIA - road to hill30, BIA - earned in blood and frontline - fuel of war, 3 games for $37.95AUD (it's cheap over here, shut up americans). they're old games, i know, but im at a desparation of FPS action, but i cant seem to find one that i havent played recently, which only leaves me to the option of buying more. i was going to play frontlines, but i cant seem to get it to work on my win7_64. iv done most of the normal procedures like compatability mode and admin stuff but i just doesnt do anything when i launch it, i think i should go research it someday, but im just not at the urge to do so, nor do i have the time.

btw, rmb how i said i slept over t my friend's house last blog?, i actually left something there, despite keeping that in mind that i wont do it. i dont rmb taking off my jacket at all tho. i must've been when i was going to sleep. considering i never sleep with a jacket/jumper on, even if it's coldest of winters, let alone it's summer atm. aside from that, i have been wtching mythbusters, the only TVshow i ever got into, i havent gone thru that much. but i must say, it's gotta be the best show on SBS (this is my opinion). aside from the myth busting been interesting, there's parts in it that stirkes some laughter too.

It is currently maintainence time for all Korean MMOs (that i play), this is porbably the reason why im writing this early in the day. i will probably be writing it early even wedn from now on, depending on my mood, but if they change maintainence time, the blog time will change with it.

16/01/11 - Home sucks

i finally did something worthwhile! w00t. i spent almost 2days out with a friend, just enjoying myself. it's not exactly 2 days but i spent the entire friday and saturday at knox shopping centre then my friends house, which is also had a sleep-over at, met her parents, covered her couch in sweat and laughed my lungs out. it's the best 2 days i had in ages. [sidenote: im not going to ever name any1 in this blog unless u got their full permission, it's the internet afterall] the plan started off as celebrated som1's birthday, which was actuly the 12th, not the 14th, but late the better than never. we ate lunch and did a game of bowling at knox, which was fun. but after that we kinda lost the train of thoughts wat to do, and considering knox is also not the most interesting place in the world. so we decided to go back to my friends house. her house is very interesting, especially with the entire friendship group from moderately to fully into anime, and her house is full of anime (and mangas)...and books. by the time i was planned to leave, which was like 1am at night, i was going to leave cuz i didnt expect them to accept a guy (opposite gender) have a sleep over, i wasnt all that keen on the idea anyway, but i thought it will be fun and we wouldnt get this kinda chance much so i did. anyway, it was 1am, so the house owner and other friend(who's also sleeping over) was paranoid about me getting raped while i walk home, it's a 40min walk afterall. i attempted to contradict theyr concern by saying that my whole walk home is on a large road anyway, no1 rapes ppl in those areas, especially in this boring suburb. i didnt bother argue so much, also in mind afraid of turning it into a argument from a discussion, so i stayed over, as a side effect, i met her parents and let every1 see my messy bed-hair. i didnt go home until around 8pm to next day. when i got home, that's when i realised how much i hate home, how lonely and cold(this word is being metaphoric) it can get.

aside from that, i am totally astounded by the fact that bulletstorm collector's edition is only $88 (this is cheap). i think im going to preorder it soon, it comes with a watergun too. that's from EBgames.au btw. while i wait till games comes out, i am, atm, playing minecraft alot. when around looking for cacti for atleast 2 days ingame. anyway, it took about 3mb of newly generated world for me to see cacti. then i also had trouble finding my way home, cuz o forgot to bring a compass, smart. but i did get back, due to the giant lighthouse i bulit, and rmbed that when i ventured out, i was walking towards dusk, so if i walk towards dawn, i oughta get back, if i dont move perpendicular much. and since i had far distance on, just looking around covers lots of ground if u build a beacon (my lighthouse in this case) even if it's realy far, u should be able to see a outline shape of the watever building or thing.

i got some anime while i was over at my friend's house, i finally watched the disappearance of suzumiya haruhi, it was disapointing to say the least. and watching that made my kinda think kyon is rather lucky, getting 3 girls that clings to him alot, altho he gets dragged around alot my haruhi, he's liked by 2 likeable cute girls(altho 2 different kind of cute), and haruhi, altho she hides it. but it leads a interesting life anyway. all in all the movie, i would say, is not considered bad, but after hearing all the hype and reading forum opinions, i thought it would be better than wat it is now.

i am right now slowly watching 07 ghost, which my friend says it's a worth watching anime. im on ep3, so i cant say much about it, but right now from wat iv seen, im not expecting much from it. anyway, ill say more when im into it more.

hope u guess had a wonderful week like i did.

13/01/11

day come, day go, im starting to lose the track of time again, that's wat the holidays does to me, even if i sleep like normally, i still lose track on time and days. anyway, i finished watch clannad+after story. a wonderful yet impossible story. it's a all time favorite anime, the only complaint about it is the continous reusage of music, im not saying theyr bad music, i mean theyr great music, i love them, but it's just that they use them over and over again. because of that ill probably rate the anime 9.9/10. lol.

i started playing titan quest again, i hav 2 things im doing on it atm. first, im starting a storm+nature person, maining storm/lightning side, and nature for support, plague for debuff alongside squall, then the wolves for a meat shield wall. aside from that im regularly farming for items using my lvl60+ characters, usually with my harbinger, hp regen build, but not entirely, i optimized it so it doesnt secrifice too much DPS or defence. it has 495hp/sec and 1195hp/sec on offhand. anyway i farm on the 4 epic bosses and sometimes typhon, telkines, charon and those less worthy monsters, i somtimes skip the automatoi master too(wat was it called again?)

it's extremely hot atm in melbourne so i apologise from the short blog, time to sleep

09/01/11 - sunday boredom

hey. it's sunday, and sunday means another blog. i actually achieve quite abit this 3days IN TERMS OF gaming. first of all, and the most exciting, i got to lvl120(maple), actually 121 now, but 120 means 4th job and 4th job means the last phase of your character and the time when u get the most powerful skills, for example, for my class we get stuff like this:
-> DPS atk: from strafe lvl30(600%dmg) to ultimate strafe lvl1(~1050%dmg) [1.73x dmg]
-> snipe lvl1: instagib a single target every 20secs, 500kdmg on bosses [OHKO madness]
-> there's more but that's the highhighlight, others include knockback arrow(DB), buffs like MMB and SE, google it if u wana know
aside from that, i did this tedious chain quest inorder to get a better pendant, 5+allstats, 35def, 100hp/mp(dep star) lastly sold a chaos scroll for 30m, now i hav some money to buy shit with. when ur a buying 30m isnt that much, considering how wrecked the economy in this game is, seriously.

aside from games, i finished SHUFFLE!, great anime, atleast wtching chobits beforehand gave me the courage to say that. i thought the making of memories(that recap/shortened version) was kinda a productivity wasted tho. sia's twin soul(or watever u call it) kinda scares me tho, and the first sia seem to have majority control over it, yet she just let her take over to write "molest, molest, cleavage tackle!" all over the screen, and are why does her eyes turn villainy anyway =.=. and i was totally not expecting him to choose asa-san over them all, cuz we wasnt even mentioned that much till....well till they fall in love with each other, basically. the only reason that could have convinced me was the poster had her on it (along with sia, nerine, primula and kaede). oooh btw, nerine somehow reminds me of that demon girl from azura cryin', duno y. search it up, it's not a bad anime, if u like demons and mechas that lurks in ur shadows...and some emotional scenes......and cute naked girls in glass pods. actually forget i mention that, that's not the point of the anime.

after i finished SHUFFLE i actually stopped animeing for a day, then started on Clannad, the most favourite anime of all times, no kidding, i just like it that much. yea im a guy and i like it that much, stop critisizing, u sexist evil person. anyway, i got up to ep18 in a day O_O. [sidenote: the more i like the anime the faster i watch it] holy effing god, this anime wont last 3days at this rate and i was trying to slowlily slowly enjoy it. dam. wasnt there a phases where it goes "good things never last (long)" ? i guess i understand it now xD. not really now stop saying im trying to merge anime and reality. i dont, period.

oooh i forgot to say this for the last few blogs: rate, comment and subsribe follow~

05/01/11 - [insert title here]

hey, it's another wednesday isnt it? wednesday is actually quite a nuisancial day to me, all those maintainence going on, puts my schedules on-hold for atleast 5hrs. yea i set schedules even for games, MMOs, it gives myself a clean goal to achieve and a direction for a ambition to face. but i think only about 80% of all korean MMOs goes on maintainence every weeks, it's usually the smaller companies like SGInteractive(which has a smaller server), companies like Nexon, although so lazy on bugs and glitches, can skip on maintainences once in awhile. to worsen the effect, Australia is on the other side of America/PST time, meaning their night is our day, so maintainence at night actually means afternoon for me, in the country of pies and football(and fat ppl).

anyway, i finished Chobits, di-sa-poin-ting! firstly [[SPOILER ALERT]] chi is suposed to be cute and all, i dont see that, infact i find her a nuisance in some parts of the story, especially in scenes where hideki is having a mind-spin. secondly i find parts of the story insignificant and could be left out, fir instance the ruckus about shinbo and sensei(what was her name again?) eloping, that seemed more like a excuse to make them two disappear from the last part of the story.[[SPOILER END]] meh. all in all it's not a bad anime, but i would say i wont rewatch that for anither few yrs unlike other animes, i could rewatch every yr and wont be bored of it.

im watching SHUFFLE! now cuz ashamefully i find myself in the senario that im afraid to watch an anime series because of the emotional swirl it will inflict upon me. oooh btw, im actually mentally unstable, not the i wanna stab someone out the blue type, but the long-term depressive type, iv been like this since 3 yrs or so ago, probably related to the incident i wrote about last blog, but it's not entirely because of that, i find myself feeling like a stray all the time, i have trouble finding someone i could speak freely to, but most of all, i lack the desire the live, i just dont have the desire to end, if that makes any sense. and long story short, im a conduit of relationship-misfortune, more relationship of ppl i know dont go well, we all intend it to our best but natural or unnatural causes befall us and again, we shatter and scatter. but that story's for another time.

on a happier note, im about to hit lvl120 on maple, considering it's so much more easier to level than before BB update. im a scarian marksman if u were curious. i havent really been playing other games, sadly, making me sound like im all focused on maple, im not, period. remember ppl, as aforementioned on some other vlogger's vlogs on youtube, what u see on the b/vlog is NOT all i do, because stuff like going to the toilet, eating breakfast is uninteresting, so i dont write about it.

2/01/11 - im back!

hey guys, first of all, im sry about skipping last wednesday's blog, because i was too busy to write it, considering it was surrounding by important things like x'mas aftermathing, prep for azn'y new yr shit, and dreaming about the wishfully improbabilities. also continued dragging away my "active time" from "normal", so far it's 24hr away from it which is the same as "normal" lol.

I finally bothered watching expendables, it's....not as good as i thought, despite my sister bugging me on about it's full of old ppl in it. im not saying it's a complete bullshit movie but it's not as good as the hype and expectation put together. other than that, i watched the entire lucky star series in 3 days, w00t (konata ftw, konata ftw :3), also i didnt realize there was so many references to other animes till i watched it, lots of them r from kyoto or bandai, like haruhi, kanon, code geass, etc. oooh i havent watched the OVA yet but i will soon. im watching chobits now, only 1ep into it actually so i cant say too much about it, apart from inexpicably weird looking robot ears on cute androids with the boot button under the v**gi*a. apart from that i think it's gona be alright, it's aparently a romance(kinda) but none in the first ep, not even a shred of atmopsheric romance in it. but meh, it's only the first episode. after that i think im going to watch shuffle!, or im going to rewatch clannad. i slightly regret starting chobits now, instead of shuffle! but meh, ppl say chobits is good so i might as well try it, id all be finish well before the holiday finishes anyway, which is on the 7th feb, btw.

sidenote: for those who was wondering, i download all my anime, yes, not streaming, it saves bandwidth if u'r the rewatching kind.

speaking of holidays, there's holiday homework...that i havent touched, i should get started on them, but now is the time to escape from reality and kill some pirates with floaties.i spent most of my time gaming, and helping my sister set up her computer, now with the new computer of her in action, she will be stealing my games off my shelf soon, she said "first on the list:darksiders" even i havent used the disk yet, i was using a pirated version, i just havent gotten around to reinstalling it with the legit version. btw here's a view on my shelf of games(and my sis's)

it's probably too small to see what games i have but u can see the comparason:

on the left shelf is all my games, the right is my sister's, notice on the right shelf, most of them r books, and on the left, books = error 404. i also have a anime poo plushie, a still-wrapped hannari tofu plushie, a penguin and a baby seal i bought from HK 3yrs back, it was suposed to be a souvenir for a friend when i got back, but too much has happen'ed that time of year and the atmosphere just wasnt right, u'll understand better if u were there. it's kinda like that feeling when everyone's departing towards there own future, where our lives branch off, when we drift away and our friendship rust. yea that feeling, only that it came 3yrs early. and ontop of that, we were not allowed to see each other because of some parent. there i went on a downward spiral for about 4months, falsely fall on love with someone else (this was caused by the loneliness i was put aforth, and she was always there in that 4 months with me at school, i thought i really needed her). ok im dragging on now, if u want the full length, comment below.
