The Melancholy of Kon's Readers

Absence

2008-08-10T10:18:00.002+08:00

A month of absence, now over. The "I dun wanna blawg" spirit is gone. But its afterburn still remains.

First, I wanna talk about The Dark Knight. IT'S EPIC. It's not really the kind of a superhero film that I want to watch (since TDK is a darker kind of a superhero flick, I like stuff like Spiderman better :P), but the portrayal of The Joker is one of a kind. My favorite scene was the one in the hospital with the Joker and Two-face. Lol. I lol'd when he used the hand sanitizer-thingy. And when he repeatedly pushed the buttons on the bomb-detonation trigger-thingy. Lol. Because of The Dark Knight, I'm now officially a Batman fan. I wasn't.

A lot of epic video games are heading this way. Too Human, Fable 2, LittleBigPlanet, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, Resistance 2, Guitar Hero: World Tour.. Daaamn. And of course I didn't forget Gears of War 2. The sequel to the best video game evar (IMO). In relation to video games, I've started playing over Xbox Live more than a week ago. Getting your 360 online is as crucial as getting your PC online. I knew I should've started online console gaming ever since I've gotten this 360. So yeah, if you have a 360 and ready to rock out with me on Rock Band, rough it out with me on CoD4 or just hang around Liberty City, give me a bump :D

Now Downloading:
Batman - The Killing Joke (graphic novel featuring The Joker as the lead villain)

Has just bought:
Libertad - Velvet Revolver's new album
Batman Chronicles Volume One - A compilation of Batman's first appearances
12 + 1 Months Xbox Live GOLD Subscription - Needed for online play. I can't believe that this is actually cheaper than, like, pRO (PTP servers). For less than P200 a month, you get superior online gaming experience.

Rock that way.

After 35 hours of pure boredom and self-pity, electricity's back on. Whew. Imagine that.

Yes we have no classes today but it isn't fair. There's nothing much you could do without electricity. But oh well.

He's Ricky Bobby and he pisses excellence in the morning, so you better watch out.

Animation made by me using Adobe ImageReady CS2. Thanks to YouTube (and the person who uploaded it) and to the creators of Talladega Nights. Heh.

And whaddya know.

2008-06-19T17:20:00.002+08:00

I went to a dentist yesterday to get my braces adjusted.

But what I got was another miserable extraction of not just one, but two of my teeth.

Holy cow that was scary. On the positive side, I've gotten over the fear of extraction already. Go ahead and extract the remaining hell out of me and I won't mind.

I do enjoy school days, for I'm laughing all day long from the jokes that my seatmates throw. From nutty jokes to green jokes (what the?), I'm sure that you'll lol when you hear 'em.

If this is what you want, then fire at will..

The pain of being a fan

2008-06-14T21:06:00.004+08:00

After the first four days of classes, I'm all burned out.

Knowing that I'm in a section (named Amethyst lolwut) filled with less beasts and harlots (compared to my section last year), it's gonna be a smooth ride this year. I'm aiming for no procrastination of activities/projects/etc. and a complete attendance. Hm.

My life was shattered when I've heard the friggin' announcement of our school a few days ago. "DISMISSAL TIME WOULD BE 5PM". WHAT THE ____!? 5PM?! AS IF THE REGULAR 4:30 WASN'T TOO MUCH ALREADY! That's basically the reason why I can't get online during weekdays. I have no more spare time. Give me back my life, high school. My friends were like "Buong araw na nasa school! YAAAA! Ipapa-Imbestigador ko yang mga yan!". Rrrriiiight.

School's fun so far. My seatmates (which are my friends) are always making me laugh out loud. REALLY OUT LOUD. There was one time I had no air flowing through my lungs because I was laughing for like 15 seconds. There's just one subject I hate, Filipino. Why? Because our Filipino teacher rearranged our seating arrangement and now I'm sitting between a loudmouth and the most beautiful girl in class, so yeah, her beauty left me stunned.

MGS4? We got MGS4! HAH! Right on it's proper release date! And it's a special edition packed with a Blu Ray disc containing behind the scenes footages! WAHAHA! And yes, MGS4 is amazing. It must be the first PS3 game that made my jaw drop. The graphics are very realistic!! WORDS CAN'T EXPRESS IT, YOU NEED TO SEE IT TO BELIEVE IT!

And yes, my Xbox 360's broken. It can't read game discs. It can still play DVD movies and music from my iPod but without games, it's nothing but a 1-ton paperweight. Darn it. Gears of War 2's gonna be released a few months later. I NEED TO GET IT FIXED ASAP. And so, it's a pain of being a fan, seeing your console break down in the front of your eye balls.

That's all for now.

(P.S. title is a reference to the song Bat Country by Avenged Sevenfold)

2008-05-27T20:33:00.002+08:00

Will be gone for a few days.

Don't ask why.

But I have a feeling that you want to know why.

But I won't tell.

Maybe I will.

But then again..

No.

Hah.

Ciao :)

ONE!

2008-05-25T20:41:00.001+08:00

Eat my GH3 skills. At medium. lol.

I phailed at the solo, but heh, it's still pretty good.

Of All The Movies in The World

2008-05-25T19:47:00.002+08:00

"I used to waste my time dreaming of being alive,
now I only waste it dreaming of you."

Reviews! Reviews! What? Movie reviews!

First movie, a fancy dramedy released last year.

It's the movie called Dan in Real Life starring Steve Carell.

What made me watch it was Steve Carell. I didn't really give a damn 'bout it since it's somehow a romantic comedy but, heh, I was bored and had nothing to watch.

So in the film, he's your ordinary single parent, living with 3 daughters and looking for somebody to love. Eventually he met a girl that he likes only to find out that she's actually the girlfriend of his brother. Then he starts to act all weird during their family reunion. (No major spoilers were spoiled)

The acting of Carell was fine, I never thought I'd see him in a romantic film. His daughters act fine as well, one of them's emo (whines and whines throughout the course of the movie), one of them's the regular panganay type and the youngest is.. the most adorable one. The story was nice, it didn't really bore me. It has a well balanced comedy and drama, which is awesome.

I'll give it a rating of 8.5/10, it's good but it somehow needs more, uh, spice.

Next movie, starring Steve Carell again, but this time with Will Ferrell as the leading guy, Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy.

During the era when all the people believed in EVERYTHING that they hear on the news, there's only one group of reporters who reigned. Ron Burgundy (Ferrell) and his crew (which includes Carell). All the news anchors were male back then. Suddenly, Veronica Corningstone pops up and manages to land a job at the station where Ron works and suddenly became the first anchorwoman. (No spoilers to be spoiled!)

What happens when Ferrell and Carell teams up? INSTA-EPICNESS. Although Carell stars as a retarded reporter, he's the best character in the film. Where else can you see somebody throwing a trident into another reporter's torso? Another thing I loved in this film is the all-star cast. I mean, all-star cameos. Jack Black, Ben Stiller and Vince Vaughn suddenly pops out of nowhere! It's really hilarious. Trust me, you ain't gonna go wrong with watching this film. On the downside, it contains sexual content which may disturb other people, especially the ladies (since I've watched this with my brother XD).

I give it a 10/10. That's not an exaggeration. Rly.

Anutha film? Rush Hour 3. Yeeeeah.

As you may have known, I'm a total fan of the series. Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan? A black person and a white? An American and an Asian? A comedy star and an action superstar?! WOW.

So yeah, the two teams up again to destroy the evil (save people and kill bad guys, you've heard of 'em before) along with some twist and turns ONE MORE TIME.

First off, the casting is GREAT. George, the taxi driver is teh best! Chris Tucker and his roflmao quotes are still epic! Jackie Chan's moves are still sharp and flashy! What I don't like about the film is the predictable storyline. It sounds like they recycled something out of an episode of a TV show or something. So yeah, the only thing you'll enjoy in the film is the hyper combination of Tucker and Chan. It has pretty much lost its touch, but you'll still like it for some reason.

I'll rate it 8/10.

The last movie..

*randomly strums a guitar*

*repeatedly steps on the bass pedal in a slow pace*

*strums again*

I...

Am..

IRON

MAN.

*strums ONE MORE TIME*

*does the legendary riff*

So yeah, it's Iron Man. The superhero that faded behind the other Marvel guys such as Spiderman and the X-men.

Robert Downey Jr. I've never heard of that guy before. lol (His appearance on AI shocked me)

So, hmmm, the story is very engaging. It has a great heroic impact that makes you wanna go insane. He's not your usual superhero like "Hey, I wanna save the people for the betterment of this world", more like an accidental superhero. He wants revenge. And he wants to get rid of the big bad ripoff named Iron Monger.

But it lacks something.. WAR MACHINE. But Rhodes did some hints. "Next time, baby!". Remember? When he saw the Mark II suit lying around? :D

Overall, the movie was stunning. The visual effects are amazing, the soundtrack blows your mind (courtesy of Tom Morello! and oh, I've heard Institutionalized playing on the background once!) and the acting is convincing.

I would enjoy my Iron Man experience if the guy beside me at the theater in Trinoma stops on blabbering "UY GAAAGO!" when he sees a huge explosion or.. "He's AAAAALL yourz!" in a gay accent repeating what Tony Stark said. I wanna crush his face and say "STFU, you noisy bastard!"

Heh, I give Iron Man a 9.2/10.

That's all the reviews for now. See ya later, dude/dudette!

Nu look.

2008-05-21T13:51:00.002+08:00

Aha. This blog gained a new look.

I like the simple header I made. Thanks a lot, Fall Out Boy and Maroon 5. And thanks to Panic! At The Disco (ehem I Write Sins Not Tragedies ehem)

The background? I made it myself using abstract brushes in Photoshop. I also like its simplicity but it lacks the glow.

Comments plz.

P.S. Thanks to Jio for sharing his comments to me. Heh. Happy now?

The devil's in the house of the rising sun.

2008-05-20T23:21:00.002+08:00

Pick-chur taim! Yeah, whatever.

Note: Links to the pics are scattered throughout this entry. Be sure to hover the arrow around the text. It gets tricky at times. There's at least one pic in every text division or something.

- So yeah, most of this entry will revolve around pictures and things about/involving/regarding me. THAT'S RIGHT. ME.
- Let's start with this: On our way to Baguio last week (or is it last-last week? I can't remember XD), I had to have fuel. Not ltrly fuel as in gasoline, I mean FUEL! CAFFEINE. The gas stops are my best friend and yes, I love my coffee COLD.
- Is Baguio Paradise City? THE GRASS IS REALLY GREEN, LOOK! The girls? Well, they're okay. I don't get it- there are more Koreans in the hotel we're staying in than Filipinos.
- Speaking of our hotel, I had to indulge in this room. The bedroom for two just turned for one. ME.
- Here is my little best friend when I was either too lazy to turn on the TV or too lazy to walk around Camp John Hay. That's right, INTARWEBZ. I can't live without it.
- Enough about Baguio, let's talk about things down here in the lovely place called Bulacan, which is where I live.
- Whoa, the other night, I tried my HDTV set and my Xbox 360, thanks to Jeff for pointing me to where I could buy Component cables! Awesome! At the pic, you could see um.. my HDTV, the cable box-thing, the DVD player (connected to the speakers), my Xbox 360 and the speakers (beside the 360). Plus a truckload of wires. There's a subwoofer underneath all that btw.
- We also watched Rush Hour 3 in our lil' something called Home Theater a.k.a. Family Room. Would you look at that. 4 La Z boy seats and one huge-ass TV with goddamn speakers.
- Of course, no movie is complete without snacks. lol
- Moving on, look! GTAIV ZOMG! And it's kinda heavy, you know what's inside this? HERE. A friggin' map of LC, plus a guidebook.
- RANDOMNESS: We once grabbed refreshments (ICE CREAM AND SHAKES) from Dairy Queen and guess what? Just click me. My name got misspelled. GREAT!
- Hah, I just bought 2 posters earlier. One Bleach and one FFVII: Advent Children. Imma have it framed then hang it on my 1337 room.
- And btw, here's a pic of my FFVII figures.

That's all for this picture-loaded entry of mine. See you soon! (Whoever you are, reading my blog)

I'll take your bet..

2008-05-19T22:25:00.002+08:00

You're gonna regret, 'cause I'm the best that's ever been!

*guitarz*

Well, it has been boring these past few days. Other than occasional buzzes and GTA IV, yeah, it has been boring indeed. Add the fact that the person I've been admiring doesn't care a bit about me.

CUT! CUT! NOW WAIT A MINUTE!

Did I just say (or type or.. whatever) that it has been boring?! SUMMER? BORING? Ugh. (Although it's not that summery anymore, it's already raining and all) I just realized that in two or so weeks, we'd be heading back to the hellhole named you-know-what. SCHOOL. Here comes the neverending homeworks, here comes the freakin' terror teachers, here comes the oh-so-boring flag ceremonies, here comes the delicious canteen food (yeah, the food in our school is not shit), here comes the oral recitations, here comes all that crap. It was just like yesterday when it was my first day as a High School freshman. But now, I'm an incoming junior. I can't believe it. Rly. Time sure flies by quickly, huh? But if I ever had a time-controlling controller (wtf), I would love to hit the fast forward button. I'd LOVE to.

I will try to make the most out of the next few summer days. Hah. Here's a list of goals to achieve before school starts:
1. Finish GTA IV. Seems kinda impossible. But heh, I'll make it.
2. Finish Guitar Hero 3 on Expert. Raining Blood and One stops me from doing so.
3. Learn 3 more songs on my guitar. The fact that my guitar's acoustic makes it a whole lot harder.
4. Download or buy an Eraserheads Anthology album. I sorely miss those tunes.
5. Impress her.
6. Clean out my closet and drawers. It has been a mess. From magazines to cellphone chargers to random stuff. Ugh.
7. Find my Lynyrd Skynyrd Gold album. It has been missing for weeks now. Good thing I ripped it on to my iPod.

Nothing much, but hey, wala na kong magawa eh :P

So, see ya around, people. I might post an entry soon with pictures and all shiznit. MIGHT.

GTAIV Sig

2008-05-13T11:08:00.003+08:00

Niko Bellic for President!

2008-05-07T18:32:00.003+08:00

Yes, I HAVE GTA IV! HAH! FINALLY!

After what I've said about GTA IV in one of my previous entries, it's kinda weird for me to get GTA IV. I said there's nothing much new but hey, scratch all of that! GTA IV's the best damn game I've played (since GoW, that is)! It's the first GTA game that I seriously played (I only free-roamed and killed people and drove like a madman in previous GTA's). The driving of GTA IV is better than previous games and you'll enjoy drifting around with flashy cars. Shooting is more fun with the cover system (ahem), the AI makes good use of it too. The cop chases? Still intense. The cellphone works like a charm whenever you need a date (and eventually grab some "hot coffee".. I bet you didn't get that. Think deeper) and whenever you need to bowl with your cousin. Minigames are loaded in the game too, like billiards or darts. You can go to the comedy bar and watch various acts to keep you entertained, or simply, watch the TV in your apartment.

To sum it all up: Liberty City is definitely kick-ass. The whole place feels so alive! It does a good job of replicating the real world. It truly deserves the 10 that Gamespot gave.

W-whazat? The game was given a M+ rating by ESRB. I'm nowhere near the age of 17. I enjoy playing the game even if I'm a minor. Don't worry, I don't visit the in-game Strip Club. And that's the bottomline, because Chiel said so.

*runs from the authority*

P.S. Pics to come at a later date. Maybe Sunday or Monday. We'll be heading to Baguio tomorrow. And that means I wouldn't be able to play GTA IV. Aaaww.

P.P.S. My teeth still hurts. But I can eat some solid food already. YES!

Teh hurt.

2008-05-06T08:42:00.002+08:00

My teeth are still teh hurt. Aaargh. And the dentist said it would be gone after 3 days.

On a side note, I've made the font size of the blog smaller. It looks better that way.

My DL list for today (and probably tomorrow):
1. The Police - Greatest Hits (DOWNLOAD DONE!)
2. Avenged Sevenfold Discography (Halfway done. The discography I downloaded doesn't include the latest album, but heh, it has the City of Evil!)
3. Sex Pistols - Never Mind the Bollocks (... Well, it's their only album.)
4. Anthrax - Among the Living (I need to find one at thepiratebay.org)

Well, see ya in a while.

On the 2nd day of braces..

2008-05-04T21:28:00.004+08:00

After about 30 hours of having braces attached, it's still teh shit.

Eating is a HELL LOT PAINFUL. Srsly.

Now if you wanna kick me in the face and say "Stop whining!", that's a bad idea. Im'ma smash your head against the wall if you do say that.

I wonder if tomorrow will be different. All I had to eat this day was lugaw. Yes. Lugaw for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Plus, champorado for an afternoon snack. Why? Since it's easy to swallow with no chewing at all.

In other non-pain-related news, my Rock Band vid I uploaded 3 months ago has more than a thousand views. I dunno how it happened, but heh, it happened!

I'm now hooked to watching the show entitled King of Queens. I never gave much attention to it before (I've seen it first at Star World). Now, since season 1 is being aired on Maxxx and is right before X-play, I decided to watch it. And it's definitely funny. Doug is like a real-life Homer Simpson and his father, Arthur, is just like Abe Simpson.

That's all as of now.

Now I have to take some more painkilling medicine. Aaaargh.

I made it.

2008-05-03T21:19:00.002+08:00

Yes, I sure did. I had braces attached and a tooth plucked out.

But as of the moment, I feel like shit.

The pain is killing me.

I can't eat. A bite is a one-way ticket to Hell.

Oh shit.

Nigga'z.

2008-05-02T10:52:00.002+08:00

I'll try to be un-racist.

But I can't help it.

You see, some people say that "Black" people make the worst music. Why? It just talks about sex, money, drugs, women, violence, more women, weed and all the nasty things you can think of. All the rapping's repetitive and monotonous.

These people can do anything to make more money and spend them for drugs. Yeah.

And this brings me to the main topic of this entry, the video game titled 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand.

So let's read the plot of this game:
"50 Cent and G-Unit perform a concert overseas, only to find out that the promoter has stiffed them. Desperate to avoid 50's wrath, the promoter offers the group a diamond-encrusted skull as payment. Before 50 and the gang can bring their prize home, it is stolen by a group of international gangsters. Thus begins G-Unit's globe-trotting, gangster-slaying, havoc-wreaking search for the holy grail of bling."

First of all, why is 50 Cent the subject of a video game? Is he too good that he needs a video game of his own? Who is he? Chuck Norris?

Holy guacamole. Like "We're gonna kick your ass, motherfuckers!" *shoots like there's no tomorrow* "Still alive, eh bitchaz?" *shoots moar*

The pointless, non-existent plot makes me go nuts. "Diamond-encrusted skull". WTF? Like they've dug something out from the cemetery and paste it with diamonds? This is madness! And look, "international gangsters". I'd be happy if that was referring to the Mafia or something, but it's not! I bet it's talking about more niggers!

Let's move on to the actual gameplay. Oh look, 50 Cent has a partner throughout his gun-happy journey. Sounds familiar? Army of Two, anyone? And there's a cover system too! Sounds familar too? Gears of War plz? He-he-hey, what do we have here? There's also a helicopter mission where you use large-caliber weaponries! That AWEFULLY sounds familiar. Call of Duty 4 eh?

With the gameplay that we've all seen before, this is not gonna be good. NOT gonna be good.

The graphics are nice though.

You see, I would be happier if they made a game about another random, fictional "rockstar" that goes mad over a bunch of skull-stealing assholes, but 50 Cent? What the?

That concludes my entry today.

And please, watch this:

^ Best racist video ever from Mad TV.

I'm not gonna make it!

2008-05-01T07:40:00.002+08:00

I push my fingers into my eyes.. It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache..

In a state of calamity. That's what I am in. In Saturday I'll have two of my teeth pulled out of my gums and then have braces attached. Yeah. What a weekend it's gonna be. I'm gonna be screaming in pain and agony while the rest of you enjoy sitting around.

In other news, Grand Theft Auto IV was proven a smash hit for Rockstar Games. Another hit. [sarcasm]Like yay! Loop-de-loo![/sarcasm] I quite don't get how GTAIV managed to get a perfect 10. What the? It now outranked Gears of War and The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion! In fact, it owned every single next-gen title that's out now! Other than the bumped-up graphics and the cover system (which is ripped of from another game *ehem*), I don't see any major changes. But since it has a perfect 10 and Gamespot is a reliable site, I am gonna buy it and play it to infinity >:)

I'll give my opinions about Pinoy blogging (or simply blogging). More than a dozen years ago, people enjoy writing about their personal lives in their so-called diaries. Which are oh-so-outdated. To be honest, I tried writing a diary (LOL) and it failed after a week. It's too boring and too plain when compared to what we have these days- Blogging. (Dun-dun-dun-daaa!) You see, blogging is just like a diary, except that it's on the intarwebz and anybody can view it (even your obsessed secret admirer). But that's what you want, PUBLICITY. That's the main difference of blogging with diaries. You do your best to keep your diary away from nasty giggling readers but you show your blog to the people. You even advertise em! It just feels darn great when you can share your opinions about things to the world. The whole world knows what you're up to, what your favorites are and etc. Now the Philippines has more than 120,000 bloggers (based on the show, Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho which inspired me to make this entry). Imagine. More than a hundred thousand Filipinos leaking information about themselves in the internet. We have a strong blogging commmunity, and hopefully, our blogs last a lifetime. It's great for our grandchildren to read what we have written decades ago. But no, apparently, our blogs isn't just for writing our personal experiences. It can also be a source of income (KA-CHING!). Some Filipinos gain more than $300 a month just because of blogging. Holy smoke! I'll be rich! With that amount of money I can get a Wii! Well I'm not really in the appropriate age to apply for income-grabbing service of Google (AdSense) and I don't really desperately need some moolah so I'm gonna wait four more years. Hah.

That wraps it up for this entry. See ya.

Top 5's!!!

2008-04-21T18:00:00.004+08:00

Okay, here's an entry about the top 5's in my life. Let's get it on!

Songs
1. Free Bird - Lynyrd Skynyrd
* All I can say is.. LOL.
2. Anarchy in the U.K. - Sex Pistols
* The anarchists know how to make good music
3. God Save The Queen - Sex Pistols
* They know how to make a strong, bold statement through a song
4. Our Lawyers Made Us Change The Title of This Song So We Won't Get Sued - Fall Out Boy
* Great lyrics which makes sense. "We're only liars but we're the best".
5. Caught in a Mosh - Anthrax
* I love the guitars in this song, especially the bass (listen to the bass after the guitar intro).
Other good mentions: Highway Star (Deep Purple), Beast and the Harlot (Avenged Sevenfold), She Will Be Loved (Maroon 5)

Bands
1. Lynyrd Skynyrd
* These southern boys defined southern rock.
2. Sex Pistols
* The way punks should be.
3. Anthrax
* Trash metal greatness. They constant collaborations with Dimebag (RIP) rule.
4. Fall Out Boy
* They may be emo but these dudes make songs with such great lyrics and all.
5. Linkin Park
* I remember listening to Hybrid Theory and rapping along with Mike Shinoda and screaming my heart out with Chester Bennington. Even if Minutes To Midnight was kinda disappointing, they still rock.
Other good mentions: Iron Maiden, Avenged Sevenfold, Deep Purple

Movies
1. 300
* THIS IS SPARTAAAA! All the gore you want is in here. (Maybe not when compared to Kill Bill)
2. Rush Hour 1 and 2
* A laugh-out-loud movie I used to watch everyday years ago
3. Kung Fu Hustle
* Don't you just love Stephen Chow?
4. Waterboy
* Adam Sandler at his best.
5. Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children
* Cloud and the gang reunites to destroy evil one more time and never looked as good as this.
Other good mentions: White Chicks, Little Nicky, Kung Pow, Star Wars Episodes I-VI, Big Fat Liar

Video Games
1. Gears of War
* I'm a total fanboy. Live with it.
2. Burnout Paradise
* Lovely. Just lovely.
3. Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII
* It patches the "holes" that FFVII and Advent Children has.
4. Bully
* It's actually great to be a highschool student in this game.
5. WWE SvR series
* Beating wrestlers to near-death is epic.
Other good mentions: Call of Duty 4, Guitar Hero series, Metal Gear Solid series

Gaming Moments
1. Doing takedowns in Burnout games
* Takedown animations are so cool. And no takedown is the same as another takedown. They're plain gorgeous in Paradise with all the effects.
2. Finishing Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII
* This is a game where I actually cared about the storyline. It's nice to follow the story of Zack Fair from his 2nd-class days to his dramatic death.
3. Singing in Rock Band
* I'll explain in a sentence: It makes me happy.
4. Playing Guitar Hero games
* They make you feel like a Rock God or something. It's just darn awesome when you can do all those riffs which are impossible in real life.
5. Beating General RAAM in Gears of War

HELP!

I NEED COMPONENT CABLES FOR MY 360!

360 Component Cables look like those. I'm searching for any brand!

So if you have seen this thing around Manila, kindly inform me!

And no, I don't need PSP component cables. (They're everywhere)

Anarchy for the Philippines..

2008-04-17T14:15:00.004+08:00

..is not coming sometime so stop dreaming.

Finally, after weeks of not blogging, I have this blogging spirit again. I was supposed to make an entry about our Hong Kong trip but I'm too lazy. Okay, to summarize:
- Ocean Park is better than HK Disneyland
- The HK International Airport is 100x better than ours. I can't access the "free" WiFi though.
- It's fun roaming around the city even at night.
- I had a great time at the wax museum (the one in HK is smaller than its NY counterpart) and had pictures with Ronaldhino, Eddie Murphy, Jackie Chan and even MICK JAGGER (or should I say.. Sir Mick Jagger)!
- There was one small gaming shop just along the street which is packed with next-gen games, PSP games.. There I got CoD4. What I forgot to check was Component Cables for my 360 since I'm getting an HDTV.. which is sadly, 19 inches. That's like.. 5 inches bigger than our PC's LCD monitor. But what the heck, it's still HD.
- I got a new black Nokia 6500 slide cellphone. It's so sleek.

That's mainly it. Hong Kong is like Paradise City as described in the song. It's where the grass is green and the girls are pretty. And by grass, I don't mean marijuana.

In other news, I've uploaded another epic GH vid:

99% in My Name is Jonas Expert. Hah! I'm getting bored of GH nowadays though. I dunno why.

I'm still getting the hang of my FFVII addiction. And I'm thinking of redoing this blog and make it FFVII-themed. lol.

That's all for now, folks. Enjoy your not-so-summery summer vacation. I'll post more stuff in the next few days so stick around.

The longest 24 hours of my life.

2008-03-18T16:23:00.003+08:00

One more day to go before being free! Yes! Here I come, Hong Kong!

I'm gonna improve my blog ASAP. My widgets are cleaned up (including the bump counter T_T) so I can have a simpler blog.

Traveled back in time.

2008-03-17T18:38:00.000+08:00

I've customized the looks of my blog, changed it back to the very first template. Will fix things soon.

The clock is ticking..

2008-03-17T17:11:00.003+08:00

Yes, the flash animation above says it all. We'll be heading North to Hong Kong in a few days to spend part of the holy week in there.

Wish us a safe, happy trip :)

2008-03-14T16:54:00.001+08:00

Oh yeah! Our "cramming" week in school is finally over! FTW! I've only got to take care of 2 more projects over the weekend and SY 2007-2008 is history! Hah!

Gears of War userbar!

2008-03-09T19:21:00.002+08:00

Please post your comment regarding this userbar I made earlier.

(Hey, I'm getting quite used to this! I might even submit my works to userbar sites! XD)

360- Worst console ever?

2008-03-09T18:28:00.004+08:00

It seems that the Xbox 360 may be the worst console ever thanks to its overheating problems. Well, hello?! My 360 never got any problems ever since I got it last year. Hah. Click me for details.

Say hello to the first userbar I have ever created in history, using Adobe Photoshop CS2 for the main thingy and Adobe ImageReady CS2 for making CBG's face scroll. I'll soon make a Burnout-themed one, a Gears of War-themed one and probably a My Name is Earl-themed one. If you wanna learn how to make one, it's very simple. Click me to get started.

The fact that March 19 is our last day at school makes me very, very happy. I only have to endure 10 cram-filled nights, including tonight where I have to make my Social Studies crossword project and fix my TLE project. Then, I have to sing tomorrow or the day after tomorrow in front of the class because it is required for our Values Ed. class. Ugh. The shame.

I've played Burnout: Paradise over the weekend and enjoyed my stay in Paradise City. I love the graphics and everything else. I am also playing more PS2 games, such as DMC, DMC3 and God of War. I'd love DMC3 if only it wasn't so hard. God of War is challenging, but accomplishing tasks is fun. I'm now downloading GoW: Chains of Olympus for my PSP through Azureus.

10 days. 10 freakin' days.

I can't get no satisfaction.

2008-03-03T19:19:00.003+08:00

The title of this post is also one of my favorite songs as of the moment, along with Before I Forget (Vermillion is overrated, I tell you! OVERRATED!) and I Ain't The One.

Here's a list of "The Best Things That Have Happened To Me In The Past Few Days"
1. I have finished the PS2 game, Bully, and I am really glad for myself. Since I don't usually finish games that I play, it proves that Bully is one of the greatest video games I have ever played. (But when compared to Gears of War, it's a whole different story)

2. We went to SM Megamall yesterday and I got myself the 2nd issue of Playground mag and Comic Book Guy's Book of Pop Culture. What? You don't know who Comic Book Guy is? He's the dood who runs the comic book shop in The Simpsons. Yeah, the fat long-haired one. And srsly, he's one of my favorite characters.

3. Oh, I forgot to mention. Another thing I got yesterday was..

Yeah, the greatest thing that has ever happened to racing games' newest sequel lands a spot in my collection of 360 games. I have played a few races, a few road rages and tried a bunch of showtimes and was amazed by the fact that the free roaming thingy actually works the way it should work! Not too messy, not too nausea-causing, not too big, not too small. It's just right. The graphics are the bomb and the gameplay is as awesome as its predecessors. The takedown/crash animations are so realistic.

4. After playing a two riffs from the Slayer song, Raining Blood in REAL guitar, my friend and my friend's friends (wtf) were amazed. I'm not Kerry King to do "MOSH1" of course.

SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO!

2008-02-23T12:28:00.005+08:00

Other than holidays, vacations and lots of stuff, there is ONE thing that I am REALLY, REALLY looking forward to this year. Of course, it's a video game.

But not just any other video game, this is a sequel to the best 360 game EVER. AND I DO MEAN EVER! It's the highest-ranked 360 game in Gamespot together with TES3:Oblivion. That game is none other than Gears of War.

Now that a sequel to Gears of War is confirmed to be released in November 2008, I can hardly wait.

Here's the trailer:

And here's the new features that are gonna be implemented to Gears of War 2, thanks to the Unreal Engine (I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU TO WATCH THIS VIDEO!):

The 2nd video is freakin' awesome! It shows that the environment is fully destructible, the water effects are as realistic as hell and hundreds of Locust drones can now appear altogether in one scene!

I'm gonna make this blog Gears of War-themed as soon as possible.

P.S. There are rumors that Gears of War 3 is coming to PS3, since Microsoft only bought the exclusivity rights of the first two GoWs. Click me.

Guess what?

2008-02-14T18:11:00.001+08:00

We have no classes tomorrow! w00t! Thanks to our school's "Valentine Concert" which I may be attending.

Yes! Victory is ours!

When young ones get too cocky..

2008-02-12T17:38:00.000+08:00

.. they make me post a blog entry.

You see, it's all in KHQ.

Aargh. A rubik's cube freak bragging off his insane mind which can solve a cube as fast as 20 seconds. Bragaholic. The last two sentences made me say "WTF?!" Is it just me or is this dude really cocky?! Take note at what he said, "It doesnt come free though". DUH! As of somebody will actually ask or beg for his help in solving the cube!

I checked the profile and saw it was an 11 year old kid. And there's something even more irritating.

In other news, The Pretender (by Foo Fighters) had made such a strong impact to the people.

TAKE A LOOK AT THIS

LOL It's the home page of YouTube, featuring many videos of people playing The Pretender using different instruments (like violins) for a shot to be in the Grammy Awards with the Foo Fighters.

The winners!

2008-02-11T17:48:00.000+08:00

The 50th Grammy Awards had just taken place hours ago at the other side of the globe. w00tness!

Congratulations to Foo Fighters for winning the Best Hard Rock Performance award for their song, The Pretender and for winning the Best Rock Album award for their latest album, "Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace".

Also, congrats to Slayer for grabbing the Best Metal Performance award (again? FTW!) for their song, Final Six and to The White Stripes for grabbing the Best Rock Performance with their song Icky Thump. Congrats to Metallica, Steve Vai, Rush, Shadows Fall and U2 for being nominated, also in the rock genre.

A big round of applause for these hard-rocking heroes.

Trybute.

2008-02-06T17:21:00.000+08:00

And no, I am not a fool for misspelling tribute. You are the fool for not understanding.

Oh yes, I can change!
I love Lynyrd Skynyrd. Though I confess that I never heard of the band since GH2 (what a freakin' shame). Srsly, hearing and playing Free Bird for the first time, I was not easily attracted. Maybe because I was focused on pressing the green, red, yellow, blue and orange buttons instead of listening. But the 2nd time around I had a feeling. This is one perfect song.

Starting with the acoustic guitar intro played by Steve Gaines (Chords: G-2nd fret on top string-E-E-F-C-D, strum them upwards and yes, I memorized it), it already has a big epic feel to it. It somehow sounds dramatic and all. Billy Powell later starts his keyboarding skills with a mellow touch. Artimus Pyle heats things up with the beat of his drums. Leon Wilkenson adds to that with his bass guitar*. When Allen Collins starts playing his part, it blends very, very well to the acoustic guitar. But the showstopper is yet to come, Garry Rossington puts his finger to the 7th fret of the 4th string and slides it toward the 12th making the intro to his ever-amazing slide solo. His slide guitar made the harmony in the early part of the song while the rest of the guys made the rhythm. It was slow and may even sound boring to others (who have a crappy taste in music), but the sound was very, very well-constructed and it has an appeal which no other song can make. Later, Ronnie Van Zant grabs the mic and sings.

"If I leave here tomorrow Would you still remember me? For I must be travelling on, now, cause theres too many places Ive got to see. But, if I stayed here with you, girl, Things just couldnt be the same. cause Im as free as a bird now, And this bird you can not change. Lord knows, I cant change.

Bye, bye, its been a sweet love. Though this feeling I cant change. But please dont take it badly, cause lord knows Im to blame. But, if I stayed here with you girl, Things just couldnt be the same. Cause Im as free as a bird now, And this bird youll never change. And this bird you can not change. Lord knows, I cant change. Lord help me, I cant change."

Death. That was the theme in the beginning of the song. In fact, death was a theme in other LS songs too. I have no idea why. What exactly is in Ronnie's mind? To be free, perhaps. To escape the fate or the clutches of death and be free. As free as a bird.

The song continues with its slow tempo and ballad-ish tunes until the last line of the song. And then comes one of the most famous solos in history. Gary Rossington lets go of the single string and switches to playing chords as Allen Collins shifts his fingers lower, to play the high-tuned solo. And there you have it, perhaps one of the most mind-blowing tune you'll encounter. Sure, it's simple and sounds a little plain when compared to.. say, Jordan, but it has a melody that is truly memorable. The fast, upbeat chain of movements of Allen's fingers were really amazing. That's the solo that defines Southern Rock.

Later, the infamous Ed King joins the pack, making his own solo to counter Allen's solo**. Two lead guitars- both soloing? THE EPITOME OF AWSOME. It is actually like a guitar duel if you ask me. It is just lovely when you hear Allen's solo on the left speaker and Ed's solo on the right. Both are equally great and it never gets chaotic as the two manages to get the job clean. Billy continues his past-faced keyboarding as Gary swings to the jive of the solo with his rhythm guitar. After an astonishingly lengthy solo, the pack ends it by hitting some chords and making the outro solo (which is defined as "end wankery" in GH2) which is also lengthy.

You know what else is with this song? It is once performed in their live concert, and they did not perform it in the main portion of the concert nor the encore, but it is instead played in their 2nd encore! Imagine the crowd going wild- "PLAY FREEEE BIIIIIRD!!!", "WE WANT FREEE BIIIIRD!!!", or "F*CK YOU FOR NOT PLAYING FREEEE BIIIIIRD!"

CLICK ME
One of the fast parts of the FB solo. And heck, I have no idea how I can pull it off on an acoustic guitar.

*In the album version, Ed King was the one who played bass, but I'm based on the live version. Which is an extended version with extended solos.
**In the album version, Allen Collins played both solos (but of course, he recorded them on different times).

Definition
Other songs that defined LS? Well, there's always the oh-so-famous Sweet Home Alabama. If you can remember, this song is actually featured in a Simpsons episode with Marge singing the chorus. The tunes are uh, groovy and still impressive and in fact, this was considered as Lynyrd Skynyrd's best. This time, Ed King plays the lead guitar and made the awesome riff. But no, the rock anthem Free Bird owns it.

Also, try listening to That Smell (which is inspired by Gary's accident), Double Trouble (which is just darn fun) and one of their singles Gimme Three Steps.

The Afterburn
In short, the 70's southern rock group really made history during their era, even before I was born. And if only that plane crash didn't happen, we may still see the old, classic Lynyrd Skynyrd.

So yes, count this entry as a tribute to the fellas who dedicated their life to make such outstanding music.

To the present members of LS, good luck and more power. Prove why Lynyrd Skynyrd was and IS one of the best bands ever.

And the video is uploaded!

2008-01-27T20:13:00.000+08:00

LOL My Rock Band video is now uploaded

Comments?

Doomed?

2008-01-27T19:48:00.000+08:00

So, it's a cold Sunday night. And heck, our cable is broken. Now I'm pissed off at Home Cable. First, for removing Solar Entertainment channels, now, this? C'mon.

Yesterday, I downloaded Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne since my pirated copy was lost. I burned it to a CD and enjoyed the RTS goodness. Next, I downloaded maps. My favorite "Anime Hero Arena" and the infamous "DotA". Srsly, DotA is a little overrated but it's nice. Anime Arena on the other side is underrated.

As of now, I'm uploading my RB video. I reduced the size from 98MB to 10MB, but I have a feeling that the upload is still gonna fail. What song? Well, you better run to the hills and see for yourself.

I can't wait to go to DataBlitz and get my hands on Burnout: Paradise. The reviews are all positive. At first, I was scared of the free roaming system but it turned out to be fine. You did a really great job, EA Games, and you have once again proven that Burnout is the king of racing games.

RANDOM PICS TIME!
1337 Kills in 99 Nights! LOL
Our cute dachshund dog
Lynyrd Skynyrd Gold Album I have

I can't believe tomorrow is another Monday. I can't believe weekends are that fast. I can't believe that we have something called "school". Sigh.

Betrayed.

2008-01-26T07:37:00.000+08:00

Thank you so much, ____, for betraying us yesterday. You pissed me off real good. You're really pathetic to be considered as one of our friends.

NVM that. I just wanted to express my emotions against my.. "friend" in school.

Anyways, I'm suddenly attracted by one band: Rage Against The Machine. Tom Morello's style of guitar-playing is wicked, thanks to the kill switch.

The past 3 days were our intrams. The battle of the bands was awesome. A friend of mine joined but mah gawd, they played shitty songs - "A Promise" and "Teenagers". How I wanted to get on stage, wreak havoc and play Killing in The Name or the Free Bird slide solo. Our club, Science Club landed on 3rd place with us being Battle of The Bands 1st placer, Volleyball (girls division) champions and Basketball champions.

There, my status in pokemon diamond as of now.

Our Christmas party was awesome, playing games and stuff. First there were these games for the whole school (which includes Maria Went To Market, Trip to Jerusalem and The Boat is Sinking lolzzz) then after that, we headed to our classroom for our own party. We received lots of gifts. And I said LOTS. I received chocolates! (Shouts: Yay! CHOCOLAAAATES!) And t-shirts and pens, etc. After our party, we did not head home, instead we went to the Internet cafe nearby and played WC3.

My, Christmas is getting really, really near and I know you're excited.

XD XD XD

E-o. O-e.

2007-12-14T20:46:00.000+08:00

I haven't been updating my blog. Too busy.

So.. My birthday is on Sunday.. December 16. Yayness. It's the first day of Christmas and of course, the first day/night of "Simbang Gabi".

My Christmas Wishlist:
1. 3rd gen iPod nano - Need. More. Space. Some glitches happen at my 1st gen ipod nano.
2. GH3 Bundle - Need. More. Rock.
3. Wireless Router - Playing MoH:Heroes 2 online is teh best!
4. A 3MBPS Internet connection - No explanation needed.
5. Dimebag Darell Electric Guitar - w00tyeah! I've actually seen one of these in JB Music for about 7k. Not bad for a legendary guitar.
6. Dark chocolate. LOTS of it.
7. An 8GB Memory Stick for my psp - GTA takes more than 50% of my 4GB Memory Stick.
8. A Motorazr - My cp is teh suxxx.
9. Gears of War faceplate for my 360 - :D
10. A T-Shirt that says "Halo 3 sucks" - >:D

I got RPG'd!

2007-11-14T18:16:00.000+08:00

BLUE DRAGON! ONE OF THE GREATEST 360 GAMES EVER! This JRPG (Yes, it's Japanese) definitely underrated and underappreciated. The game was designed by the famous Akira Toriyama (Dragon Ball anyone? Dragon Quest? Hey, why does all his works involve dragon?!) and the one who made the story made the original Final Fantasy game. I was suddenly craving for an RPG game more than a week ago so I got this game last Sunday (on DataBlitz Shangri-la branch) together with Ninety-Nine Nights (N3) which is a game very similar to Dynasty Warriors but a lot better in story and gameplay. So yeah, I'm definitely addicted to BD.

Somehow, I feel depressed. Because of my friend in school. *coughplasticcough*

I'm busy these days, lol. In short, I won't be updating this blog soon.

KTHXBAI!~

Halo phails.

Foo Fighters is really kewl. I like their songs Monkey Wrench and DOA.

Guess who finished GoW? Haha. Me and my brother played on coop mode on the last few parts of act 4 and the whole act 5. Double the players- double the fun. General RAAM (final boss) was a pain. He's a badass locust with a huge-ass gun. But I ended his life with a Boom~ Headshot using a Longshot Sniper Rifle! I did feel the game was somehow short, but really amazing. It was the greatest game I've played evar. If only our graphics card in our pc has about, 512mb vram or 1gb vram, then I would definitely buy the PC version, which would have an extra act. For me, Halo 3 SUCKS. I used to play Halo: Combat Evolved on our PC and Halo 2 on my Xbox but, heck, it's an overrated piece of crap. I have no idea why the hell people think it's awesome. Personally, I think Gears of War is totally better. The storyline, the characters, the monsters, the weapons- everything is better than Halo.

Help. Needed. Adobe. Dreamweaver. Newbie. I. Am.
I phail in using adobe dreamweaver. I need tutorials!

I wanna have GH3 nao. Kinda hated the reviews, though. "8" for the current-gen consoles and "7.5" for the PS2. Better luck next time, Neversoft. =)

Well, that's all for today.

KTHXBAI

So much fun today, so much agony the next.

"Console yourself, you're better alone. Destroy yourself, see who gives a fuck."
- Laid To Rest - Lamb of God

Somehow, this song is connected to my misery a few days ago. Right, Jio?

Anyways, I have already finished Guitar Hero II's Hard Tour! Wootness! Srsly, my left hand fingers are teh hurt up to now (you'll know what I mean if you play it on a guitar controller) The songs "Carry Me Home" and "Free Bird" are BS. I failed so many times, but then I conquered them at the end (three stars though LOL)

Plus, here's a video of me playing Trogdor (Rhythm guitar on Medium) I like playing the part of Meadley, even if Squeadly pwned him. *sings: BUR-NINATING THE COUNTRYSIDE!*

I'll update this blog whenever I can. I still have an ass-load of projects waiting to be done.

Gamer's Guide: Getting The Xbox 360 Controller S To Work On Your PC!

2007-10-20T16:49:00.000+08:00

Do you have the wired version of the 360 controller s, but you have kept it in the depths of your closet since you have a new wireless controller for your 360? Well, you can now put it to good use! Use it as your game controller for your PC!

What you need:
A Wired Controller S for Xbox 360
A Windows XP PC
Games! (For what purpose will you use it with no games?)

Setup:
1. Download the installer software HERE.
2. Install the newly downloaded software. Installation may take up to 5 minutes.
3. Plug your Controller S in the USB slot.
4. Ta-da!! It's now ready to use!

Testing:
Now that my Controller S is functional in the PC, let's test it and see if it really works.
MUGEN
I have tried it and it works fine. But, I could not get the arrow keys to work, so yes, you are stuck with the analog stick. Also, I could not find a way on how to make the "Back" button work, so you are still gonna' use the Esc button on your keyboard. But everything is fine on the main gameplay.
Quake III: Arena
BS. It works but in a real crappy way. You see, the game does not detect the right and left movements of the right analog stick. So aiming for the enemy might give you major headaches. What I did for the config was the left stick was used for walking PLUS aiming left and right as the right stick was only used to aim up and down. Could you imagine how hard that is?! If you want an alternative solution, you could set the ABXY buttons for aiming, but it just doesn't feel right. Then, I used the left trigger to shoot, just the way how shooting games on the xbox work.

I wanna try other shooting games like CS or Red Faction to see if it has the same Quake problem, but that has to go later.

Conclusion:
The controller S works fine for games like MUGEN and probably other games like Prince of Persia, Need For Speed or GTA.. I'll update the guide later on and see if it the right stick really works or not on shooting games.

Note: The rumble feature does not seem to work.

Thanks to:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RIuvh-pL-do
http://techgage.com/article/xbox_360_controller_for_windows/1

To anybody who owns a 360/controller s, please try and test it!

Let's all hum hallelujah!

"That without you is how I disappear,
And live my life alone forever now."
- This Is How I Disappear - MCR

Yay for new blog header! The theme of the header is somehow dark and chaotic. Melancholic, just the way you like it. It's basic Photoshop, people! Thanks to the ever-amazing Sparkle brushes.

Good news: I'm in for the Spelling contest - school level, which means I'll be competing against those junior and senior pains in the neck. The classroom level was easy - I landed in 1st. The year level was a little hard - I landed in 1st, together with a fellow spelling expert WHO WON THE COMPETITION LAST YEAR as a freshman. Damn. Maybe tomorrow will be the day the competition will be held.

I AM craving to record another GH vid. (lol) And these songs are my choices:
1. Dead! - MCR (Medium - I wanna FC it again!)
2. Sweet Child O' Mine - GNR (Hard)
3. Monkey Wrench - Foo Fighters (Hard - A real pain in my right hand..)
4. Hangar 18 - Megadeth (Medium)
5. Six - All That Remains (Medium - As requested by Random lmao)
6. Jordan - Buckethead (Medium - Going for FC!)
7. Psychobilly Freakout - RHH (Medium - This time, I'm gonna land the usage of Star Power right)
8. Woman - Wolfmother (Hard - Real fun.)

So.. This will be the end of my entry today. A pleasant day to you, dear reader.

Psychobilleh' Freakout!

2007-10-13T12:54:00.000+08:00

It's me playing GH2 - Psychobilly Freakout by Reverend Horton Heat on Medium using an xplorer guitar controller. Video quality is okay, I used our digicam but I didn't use our tripod so it's a bit shaky. I screwed up like, 5 or 6 times. My xplorer controller was noisy too, making all those 'clank, clank' sounds. Also, you can see my shadow at the vid (lol) and you can see me removing my guitar controller at the end of the vid. XD

I'm nothing like Ben (you're not familiar with Ben? See the user "beberle2" at youtube) but I will train my fingers to be blazing fast and accurate.

XD

Burninate.

THATCHED-ROOF COTTAGEEEEEEEEEEES!
Like zomg, trogdor is the win.

Anyways, this entry is about.. our FIELD TRIP! *dun-dun-dun-daa!*

More than a week ago, our field trip (TO SUBIC!) happened. More than half of the class joined, so it was awesome. And oh, I received a new nickname from my friends. "Gadget Boy". WTF? It's because I brought my stuff like PSP, iPod and my cellphone.

So, our bus left our school at around 6:30 AM. Off to Subic we go. It was pretty cold inside our bus. And it was also pretty crowded, since there are 2 sections in each bus and we have to share our bus with first year students. Upon entering NLEX, we started praying the rosary. After praying, it's a freakin' parteh! Srsly, PARTY. My classmates brought balloons and stuff (LOL) and they had music all over the bus through their loud mouths. Some were eating junk food while some are just listening to their mp3 players. And oh, some of my retarded, perverted classmates were watching you-know-what videos on their cellphones. On the other side, me and my friend were just chatting. Good times.

Around 7:45 AM

We now bumped to our 1st stopover- A place in Pampanga with local restaurants, a convenient store and restrooms. And good Lord, there was a one peso payment for the usage of the restroom.

Then, we returned to our bus and continued the journey. We were then listening to FOB in my iPod (my friend and I were both hardcore FOB fans) We were also playing with my PSP.. What game? BLEACH! After a long trip, we have entered Subic Bay. Our faces were filled with excitement.

Around 9:00 AM

So, where do we go now? TO OCEAN ADVENTURE! WEEE! (I've been to OA before, so it's not much of a thrill. Still, I'm excited!) So, we are inside OA. The different sections were divided into different groups. Our section, a third year section and a first year section were Group 5. Now, we headed into the.. err.. mini-zoo or something (I forgot the name XD) There were many animals which are real cool, like the bald eagle, the monkeys or that animal whose poop turns to coffee (forgot the name too) After that animal-filled place, the souvenir shop. I bought keychains and the little wooden clown doll (if you pull the string under that doll, it raises its limbs. kinda cute, but hey, don't get me wrong. it's not ghey.) Immediately, we were called because we were gonna watch the Sea Lion show! WEEE! These cute, chubby monsters can be quite adorable. The only problem is their breath. YECH. So, the two sea lions performed, they danced, they did a single handstand, they wiggled their tails. It was very entertaining. They even smiled! (which was like zomg! IT SMILED! IT SMIIILLLED!) After the show, we were headed to the lil' aquarium. The fishes are absolutely amazing. I've seen one that looks like Nemo, one that looks like a monster (really.. an ugly fish was there!), and even some deadly stingrays. From there, we now went to the classroom-like place where the guide discussed about the animals like whales and dolphins. It was kinda boring but it's fun to know more about these animals. And shortly after that, we went to our buses to say farewell to Ocean Adventure.

Around 12:30 PM

But no, we are not ready to go home yet. Heck, we didn't even have our lunch! We are now off to Camayan Beach Resort which seems to be only a a few dozens of meters away from OA. So, we carried our stuff to the beach. And we ended up in the last few cottages, which seems to be at the end of the beach. Then, we would grab our lunch from the center of the resort then we would go back to our cottages so it is really a tiring walk going back-and-forth. After chow, we now went to the shore to.. SWIM. (Well, of course, what would you do in a beach?) Me and my friends enjoyed swimming. The waves range from moderate to strong! Really, the waves blasts us away like Trogdor! But, wtf, the water has seaweeds. Disgusting, but we loved throwing it around to our other friends. (An old friend of mine was even said to throw a pantyliner around! Mah Gawd!) After some time, we sorta' got tired and just sat near the water. Waiting for a huge wave to come. We eventually ended up to covering each other in sand. It was fun! (My other friend did not swim. Instead, he played burnout and wwe the whole time on my psp)

Around 3:00 PM

The lifeguard and some teachers went shouting 'Ahon na!' meaning that we should get the heck out of the water and start taking showers.. And as expected, the [outdoor] showers were filled with tons of people! Grabe, siksikan. Do you know what the teachers did? They grabbed a water hose then water'd the students who can't get in the shower! Kinda fun. After taking a shower and changing clothes (I WORE A DX T-SHIRT! W00T!) we headed to the bus. Most of us were exhausted.

Around 4:00 PM

We left the resort and headed to another place. Duty-free a.k.a. Subic Freeport Exchange. We went down the bus and shopped for goodies! I only bought chocolates. DARK chocolates. We stayed there in Duty-free for about an hour.. The others went in a shopping frenzy.

Around 5:00 PM

Ah, finally. Time to go home. The batteries on my gadgets are running low. We now had some quiet. NOT. Unbelievably, my classmates are still as noisy as ever, like nothing happened. But I don't care. I was noisy too! We just chatted and rested. My other classmates ate watermelon seeds (Butong pakwan) and littered at the bus. Heck, they even played chicosci songs and I wanted to shoot the speakers with a Hammer of Dawn or something. Emo sucks.

Around 8:00 PM

We arrived near the campus and then went home.

The next day..

There were 20 of my classmates absent in the morning. Then 8 of them arrived at lunchtime. Oh well.

THE END

P.S. WILL POST PICS SOON!

I dedicate that song not only to Cher-nee and Rukia-nee, but also to our adviser, who left us for good. The reason? She couldn't handle us anymore. Yeah, our section is that worse. She is gonna be replaced by a new teacher.

"You forced me to do that."

Yesterday, at dismissal time, most of my classmates (especially teh girls) were crying in front of our adviser.

"Talagang ganon. Walang permanente sa buhay."
- Our adviser said with tears in her eyes

I actually lightened the atmosphere and sang "Helena" and "Thnks Fr Th Mmrs" out loud. LOL The songs were related, right? There were also some students who clowned around.

That was like, the loneliest moment of my high-school life. I somehow felt guilty, but really, I blame my stupid classmates for her departure. We tried to make her stay, but nothing happened.

This is how stupid we can get. This is why I hate myself. This is what I thank the venom for. This is how I disappear.

Score one for the losers!

"You do not get caught for lying. You get caught for lying badly."
- Quoted from Reader's Digest

What the hell's with the title of this entry you may ask. I don't know either so nvm.

I already beated GH2 medium! W00t! You may check out my scores at www.gh2chielmedium.tk! The only song I perfected was Dead! by MCR. Must be because I can play it at real guitar (only the rhythm, but most parts are similar to the lead) Okay, okay, I like MCR and hate me if you must. I didn't expect Misirlou to be short, Free Bird was surprising (its a 75% slow song then 25% fast) Who Was In My Room Last Night? and Hangar 18 (woo megadeth!) were really fun and Laid To Rest was simply awesome (LAMB OF GOD FTW!) I suck at Psychobilly Freakout and Carry Me Home. That 8 year old kid in youtube pwnz the heck out of me, and the lil' dude plays on EXPERT. (Search for it!) I plan on 5-starring the songs before heading to Hard, then Expert. (What about easy? It's too boring.)

You noticed the advertisement section above? Yes, I put advertisements in my blog now and you don't care! LOL

I'm still lvl. 42 in ragna. Damn. Monkhood is a looong journey.

*NEWS FLASH* I SAW AN ORIGINAL 300 GRAPHIC NOVEL AT COMIC QUEST IN SM MEGAMALL! AWESOMENESS! BUT.. I FORGOT TO ASK HOW MUCH IT COSTS! I WANNA GET IT SOOO BAD! *NEWS FLASH*

Damn, the d'l speed in reality lapse is at its slowest. I still can't download DMC.

So.. that's all. See ya!

AWESOMENESS

Demonic lyrics, yes.

This day is so freakin' awesome. We have no classes because it's a holiday. We also have no classes tomorrow because of the BULPRISA. So yeah, it rocks to be me.

Now, I'm so addicted to pRO. Here's a pleasant screenshot:
http://i202.photobucket.com/albums/aa4/coolchiel/Others/screenBALDUR002.jpg
Wrestling fan, I am so the guild name and logo is the Rated R! w00t! Also bragging the equips which costs a hell lot of money.

Gears of War is real awesome, I'm on Act III. The game gets really funny sometimes. Like when Cole and Baird are down in the stinky, smelly sewers, Cole says to Fenix, "There's room for one more! It's a fuckin' party down here!" Fenix replies, "No thanks." Srsly, I laughed out loud at that scene.

I wanna get the Life on The Murder Scene DVD! (Don't shoot me if you hate MCR) Thank you for the venom is also an awesome song which you may want to listen to.

Yesterday, I found out that my GH2 already arrived! My dad said that I'll get it over the weekend. *Dreams of the Xplorer controller*

*yawn* See ya later! *yawn*

More rants! Wee!

2007-08-25T18:03:00.000+08:00

Wow. A veteran's rant to caguioa. It's unbelievable that he/she logged in just to do that. Amazing.

Right now, an operation (which does not involve me) is on-going regarding this whole thing. No further details. My mind is still filled with anger.

Faguioa Update: UBERPWNED!

2007-08-25T13:46:00.000+08:00

Caguioa_47 made a new topic in khq called "Rawr Revival!! (peace etc..)" that is made of phail. Read on!

caguioa_47: Hehe. We'll match the greatness of the original rawr thread. But by peaceful means! :D :D :D Can we do it?

scavengerchiel: YOUR STUPIDITY'S TOO MUCH! There's no way a pussy like you could match the epicness of Rawr!

Quote:
@Micael:My apologies. Im only defending myself because their blaming me for the dissapearance of their thread. Now their gone, we can now return the peacefulness of the KHQ.(Or if they're really gone...)
ARE YOU NUTS?! YOU ARE THE REASON WHY RAWR DISAPPEARED! YOU ARE CAUSING THE MADNESS! We were all having fun at Rawr then you screwed it all up because of your stupid posts!

Seriously cag, you make me sick.

Hidden message: I don't care if the mods get angry at me. My friends are gone so I shall end caguioa once and for all.

caguioa_47: ^Peacefulness is important here.....

scavengerchiel: ^ Peacefulness? Come on. You gotta do better than that. You can't just shut me off by typing nonsense.
Srsly, who are you to revive rawr?? Huh? There is no way that you can revive the greatness of rawr, you dumbass. YOU SIMPLY CAN'T.

caguioa_47: ^I dont want to start another war, so shut up if would not say somethin' nice will ya?!

dota_freak: Cag's going to be bashed to kingdom come! [=============]
(O_O)>>>O=============[=============] [=============]
(X_X") <<<>
We'll be watching you.

caguioa_47: ^Hmmm, shift?

scavengerchiel: ^look, faguioa. you just started another war just by starting this crappy thread!"IT IS AN INSULT FOR A PUSSY TO REVIVE SUCH A GREAT THREAD!" Come on. You are really pathetic.
Hidden message: Now I get why you made this thread, you just want to get the attention of kim or other girls so you could bang them too.

@ dota freak - fix your hammer :D

angelhazel: peace here

Then it was moved from No ID No Entry to Kids On The Street. Then, when i was about to type a reply, he deleted it. Owned. It seems that he was scared to be flamed again. Lol.

P.S. dota freak IS skyline and angelhazel is a 9 year old n00b.

Three cheers! I hope cag stfu's now.

Perfect. Just effin' perfect.

2007-08-25T07:05:00.000+08:00

BULLSHIT. FAGUIOA, YOU RUINED KHQ. YOU, A FUCKIN' BASTARD, A N00B, A STINKY PUSSY, A BIG "MOTHAFUCKA" RUINED IT.

*sorry for my language, dear reader"

t(",t)

Everything was perfect in KHQ. We were rejoicing Torta's return (as AngryYoungMan) But then, a n00b suddenly appeared. "Um, what's this about?" Then, it's the start of the flame wars. We all then tried to make caguioa, or i mean, faguioa STFU. Guess what? He just wouldn't because of his idiocracy and his addiction to Kim. The war reached different threads (since caguioa shows up everywhere with his big time stupidity) from Torta's Back to what's your genre (in music) to Rawr. Rawr. THE MOST EPIC THREAD EVER. GONE. AND TRANSFERRED TO A MOD EXCLUSIVE BOARD FOR REVIEWING. That thread was filled with so much memories. How can I forget Dora? And GB Invasion? (I AM THE STARTER OF GB INVASION, YES, I AM FrAnCi$ IF YOU DIDN'T KNOW) We were all having fun. But when cag showed up.. Party hats turned into Military Helmets. Our jokes turned into flames. Our smiles.. vanished. All because of a faggot. A dirty faggot that wants to get in Kim's pants. Then a thread named "w-w-where's rawr?" was made by torta. There, the last stand against caguioa happened. After 11 pages the thread ended too. A mod (Micael) showed up.

"@caguioa_47: *sigh* How many times must I tell you to stay away from these people. I have good reasons why I've been asking you to refrain from talking to your oppressors. I also have asked you to not disclose my recent actions because I'm too busy to read flame messages in my inbox.

@Rawr Group: Your beloved Rawr thread is not yet deleted. I decided to transfer your thread to a secluded mod board for review.

Let me be honest with you guys/gals of the Rawr Group... I want you banned from this forum but I unfortunately cannot do that yet. I will also do all that I can to make that permanent.

Respect. It's all that I'm asking from you guys/gals.

- Micael"

He won the battle. Micael won the battle against us. Then, it lead to the farewell of three forumers. THREE. Skyline, Torta and Prototype. With these pwners gone, what will happen? Well, there's still Cereal Killer, d-generate, Random and me to try to pwn but it wouldn't be the same. Sam's Happy Time is broken. Nothing's gonna be the same. If the others leave too, I may leave as well.

*END OF RANT*

A Shot To Remember

"Sister, I'm not much a poet, but a criminal And you never had a chance.Love it, or leave it, you can't understand A pretty face, but you do so carry on, and on, and on"
-Thank You for The Venom - MCR

No, you are not dreaming. This IS my blog. I just gave it a new look. I changed the header but still,"I only want symphaty in the form of you" remains (Spot it and get a cookie)

I just listened to MCR's Mama, and I was quite impressed. At the "MAMA! MAMA! MAMAAA!" part, the guitar sounds metal. Weird. MCR = METAL?! THIS IS MADNESS!

Also, I tried downloading AniRO. Ani-what? Its a private server for Ragnarok Online. Why dl a private server? Because it's free to play, it's fun to play (up to 60x exp!) and it's.. simply awesome to play! But heck, a 1 gigabyte file download at a speed of 4 kb/s? Gimme a break. I guess I'm stuck with pRO.

That's all. I hope you liked the new look. Bye! ^^

When I die..

2007-08-21T17:23:00.000+08:00

"Give me a shot to remember, so you could take all the pain away from me. A KISS AND I WILL SURRENDER. The sharpest lives are the deadliest to lead."
- The Sharpest Lives - MCR

Again, I repeat, I am NOT emo. Why do I like MCR? It's because.. I like their music. Okay? The Sharpest Lives and Dead! are actually decent songs from the Black Parade album while Helena, Skylines, and some from other albums are gooood.

Speaking of Helena, we kinda talked about it earlier. I told the "history" of the song to my friends. It was actually made for Gerard and Mikey Way's grandma named Elena who passed away. The song's meaning was kinda dramatic. "What's the worst that I could say? Things are better if I'd stay. So long and goodnight. So long and goodnight." And I actually said to my classmate who is also my best friend "'Pag namatay ka, gagawan din kita ng kanta. Hehe. ^^" Well, actually if any of my friends die, I would make him/her a song. Yebah.

Crap, now I'm addicted (again) to Ragnarok Online. I was bored yesterday, I had nothing to do.. BOOM! The first thing that came into my mind were online games. And one of the best online games is Ragna. I used to be a Ragnarok Geek (back in grade 4 or 5 lol) If any of my classmates had a question 'bout it, I would sophisticatedly answer. But now, things have changed in the game. And oh, I can't play since I ran out of game time. BS. (SSSH! I TRIED USING BOTS LONG AGO, WILL I USE IT AGAIN? SSSH!)

Regarding my "rival", things went a little less intense. End of story.

I suppose I shall end this entry. Bye!

Hallelujah! (Did i get the spelling right? huh?)

- Burn In My Light - Mercy Drive

I turned lazy and didn't blog much.. So here's..

A LIST OF THINGS THAT HAPPENED IN MY (AND OTHER'S) LIFE!:
1. I'm actually stuck in Gears Of War. Shit. I'm stuck in Act 2. Lame. In a part where Boomers attack from the front then wretches attack from behind. My God..

2. I am now addicted to M.U.G.E.N.! WEEEEE!!! A fighting game which allows you to customize characters (including randomness like Homer Simpson, Sub Zero, Akuma, Haruhi Suzumiya), stages, etc.. It's the awesomest (is there such a word? lol) game ever! (maybe not, since gears of war still owns!)

3. 2 bands want to recruit me. Goddamnit. A band (which plays mcr songs) wants to get me as a bass guitarist/backup vocals and the other band (which plays 'rap metal') wants me as their rythm guitarist. Why is it a big deal? Because there's an annual "Battle of the Bands" at our school at January. But I have absolutely no plans of joining. End of story.

4. Our 2nd summative exams are over! Weee! Algebra was unexpectedly easy, but Values education was plain hard.

5. In KHQ, there is a topic called Rawr! and it's totally kickass. They even want to surpass "egotistical bastards would..." (which has 3700+ posts! wow!) by the legendary rikku_yunie. Possible? HELL YEAH! =D Here: http://www.kzone.com.ph/khq/index.php?topic=12316.0

6. My classmates are emo. Crap. Crap. Crap. They even said "Ang astig ng picture ko (sa friendster) no? Emo ako dun!" then I simply smiled. But actually, I said in my mind, "GO TO HELL EMO BASTARD!"

7. I got Loco Roco and Me & My Katamari for my psp! The cute-ness of both games is too much! XD

8. I totally want to go to the FOB concert in Manila on Sept. 21! But heck.. I'm sure that I will not. End of the story.

9. I actually scored a 100% in my algebra test (YES THE 4-HOUR EXAM) last month. And I am treated like a king in our class since then.

10. There's a fucking bastard that irritates me in our class. Now, he is like my rival. I just want him to shut the fuck up and continue his lame life. No further details to be mentioned. He plain sucks and I want him to burn in the depths of Hell.

*sorry for my language btw*

That's all for now.. I guess I'll have to go play MUGEN! hehe. See ya! ^^

A busy week of school is now over. Wee! Monday to Wednesday was our exams.. but I didn't get any trouble. I met some HS juniors (its our school's exam routine, half of the class goes to another classroom, exchanging students, etc.) And a girl named _____

PE class yesterday was f'n tiring! God, from push-ups to sit-ups to running back and forth at the stairs, man we almost passed out.

Now playing.. Burnout Legends (PSP) I think its actually better than dominator (maybe because of the more colorful environment)

Now d'ling.. Bleach episode 52-53..

Gawd my mind is empty for stuff to write.. Dance to the SoD.. Until then,

Oh, my head aches. OH MY GOD, I JUST HAD MY LONGEST SUMMATIVE EXAM EVER! YES, IT'S ALGEBRA. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, 4 STRAIGHT HOURS OF PURE COMPUTATIONS! FROM 1:15PM-4:15PM! A hell lot of other sophomores did not finish the test. Some even cried because they did not finish it. But fortunately, Kon managed to finish it exactly on time! Heck, it almost made our nose bleed. A lot of sophomores are also complaining to our teacher, like "MA'AM! RETEST! PLEEEAAASE!!"

Hmm.. I also wonder why FOB songs are about love.. Most of their songs like Thnks Fr Th Mmrs or Dance, Dance or Sugar We're Going Down or Grand Theft Autumn or Of All The Gin Joints In The World.. Try listening..

Right now, I'm into Starcraft: Brood War. Hell yeah, it's the super-old RTS game from Blizzard, but it rocks! w00tness! (And btw, I did not buy the game nor borrow the game from anyone XD)

And AHA! Someone tied with Rukia-nee in my True Friend Test! It's Gio! Congrats man!

I think I'm obssesed with the song. It's stuck in my head the whole day. Yes, from the moment I wake up until now.

Guess what? The d'l speed of Bleach just got lower. From 10kb/s to 5kb/s. This is pure BS. Damn. Maybe I should just stick to crunchyroll.. Hmm..

Hooray for FOB! Of All The Gin Joints In The World is a great song too, only it didn't go as popular as Dance Dance, Thnks Fr Th Mmrs and others . But still, MORE MISUNDERSTOOD LYRICS. I actually thought that "your makeup stains my pillowcase" is "don't make me change my pillowcase". What the hell is wrong with you, Mr. Patrick Stump?

I got active at watching bleach again! w00t! but i'm still downloading episode 44. and at a rate of 10kb/s. holy crap, 10kb/s.

This ain't a scene it's misunderstood lyrics.

2007-07-09T19:53:00.000+08:00

Patrick Stump (of FOB) should do something with the pronounciation of the words. Let's use TAASIAAR as an example.

"This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race"

Sounds like

"This ain't the sea, it's a gold dare ass-face"

or

"This ain't a city, it's a golf cart our space"

or even

"This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn ass-rape" (lol)

And heck,

"I'm a leading man, and the lies I weave are oh so intricate, oh so intricate"

sounds like

"I'm a little man, and I'm also evil, also into cats, also into cats"

Also

"Prima donnas of the gutter"

sounds like

"Bring the dumbass out the gutter"

Anyways.. In a conversation between me and my classmate, Marvin..

Marvin: "Malungkot sabihin lahat tayo mamamatay."

Chiel: "HA?! Anong pinagsasasabi mo diyan?!" (My reaction was like WTF?!)

M: *laughs* "Talaga naman e."

C: *laughs* "Wow pare, ang deep ng sinabi mo."

Then, when our friends heard of what he said, they are also like, WTF?!

Hmm.. Sure we are gonna die. But I hope its gonna be decades away..

Yesterday, our english teacher asked my classmate (the gay one, see my other post) what would he do if he was Frank, a close friend of Clifton in a certain story.

Teacher: What would you do if you were Frank?

Gay Classmate: I will marry Clifton.

T: Ha? I asked what would you do if you were Frank.

Gay CM: I will marry Clifton.

T: YOU WILL MARRY CLIFTON?! WHAT?! Are you gay?

My *Gay* classmate just smiled and said "No." Our teacher was puzzled. I was puzzled too. Is he gay or what?!

I had fun earlier, when we are about to go home. I was singing "Thnks Fr Th Mmrs" with my friend lol and I was imitating Joe, spinning around like crazy. But know what? Thnks Fr Th Mmrs is really a song with a really dirty meaning which is not meant for kids. Trust me.

School is going well, thank God. But there are MAJOR changes of subject schedules. For example, we used to have Social Studies everyday. Now we got no Social Studies on T/TH/F but get 2 hours of it on M/W. Then we got new teachers replacing other teachers etc. It's a high-school wide chaos.

Weird. Almost all of us sings in our class. When we got nothing to do, we sing. Like you can hear me singing Dance, Dance/Thnks Fr Th Mmrs on our free time.

2 days to go before our recollection. I remembered last grade 6 when we had a recollection, we made the seminarian sing a song for us. Baaad students. Would you believe, he sang a cueshe song. Pfft.

I am obviously a 300 addict at school. You may see my desk with the 300 logo. And when my classmate asks a question 'bout 300, I gladly answer. And I am telling the story of 300 to my classmates.

SPARTAAA!

Damn. The 30-second song preview is now implemented on the Dance, Dance that is on Radio Kon. Damn imeem! If all the Dance, Dance songs on imeem is 30-second'd, I would love to upload an audio file of me playing Dance, Dance on guitars instead of those crappy imeem'd ones.

I wonder when My Name Is Earl season 3 will arrive. It's my favorite TV show.

Finally, I'm home. It feels great. School is so tiring, busy yet fun.

Our teachers for Filipino, English and Values Ed are absent. Good news for us! The sad part is there are substitute teachers. Aww.

Our recollection will be on Friday. Which means there will be religious heart-to-heart talks with a seminarian THE WHOLE DAY from 8 AM to 3 PM.

My seatmate at school, which is also one of my friends, is very freakin' noisy. He was talking the whole day. At a certain time in the afternoon, I can't handle his mouth anymore. And the teacher at the time was VERY STRICT. I don't want to get scolded for being noisy, so I said to my seatmate..

"______ ___ __!!! Pag tayo napagalitan.."

He was quiet for the rest of the afternoon, because maybe he can see that my face is serious. Tapos napamura pa ako.

My classmates signed up for athletic activities. Like basketball, badminton, table tennis, etc. But of course I am restricted to join. If I join any of those sports, I could die at any moment. And I am not joking.

Hmm.. E3 will start in 8 Days..

Finally, this day is almost over. We had classes and it sucks bigtime, but I had a good time. My classmate, Marvin, is so awesome playing the guitars. Of course I didn't want to brag that I play the guitars too, but I sampled them some songs. (Siyempre some OPM and MCR.. Kasi hindi nila alam kung bigla na lang ako tumugtog ng metal diba?)

My fingers freakin' hurt from playing the guitars, since I was learning Cemetery Gates by Pantera. Amazingly, I already mastered the lead guitar parts! w00t! Imagine a 13 year old playing a metal song, how cool is that?!

*plays pokemon crater*

I told you I was influenced by my classmates to play pokemon crater.

And oh, isn't Dance, Dance (the song currently on Radio Kon) an awesome song?? It's about a dude who doesn't get the attention of the girl she likes since she goes with other men, leaving the poor dude alone. "Why don't you show me a little bit of spine? You've been saving for his mattress, love." I like that line, it pours out with emotions. "She says she's no good with words but I'm worse" And I can relate to that line.

Regarding my desk design on school (see my other post!) Here are the..

FINAL THINGS I PUT ON MY DESK:
Pictures of..
1. Kon (of Bleach)
2. Edge (holding the WH Championship and MITB Breifcase)
3. 2 Rated R Superstar Logos

Then I just scribbled some lines, paste my name, cover with plastic covers and poof! My school desk is pimped!

School is kinda okay. My classmates are friggin' noisy (I think i'm noisy too lol) and irritating.
Like, my seatmate is a half-Japanese (lmao) And she's noisy, naughty, and pasaway. But she's very friendly. And a classmate who is (or acts) like an effin GAY. Like, he likes to hug me and my male classmates. Yuck. And some of my friends are PERVERTED. No further explaination needed, they're perverts. And of course, fellow guitar players! w00t! And there are A LOT of Pokemon Crater addicts. Lahat ng klase ng height, weight, katalinuhan, kalokohan, kapangitan, kagandahan (uyy!), kabaliwan, kaastigan nasa mahiwagang classroom namin.

I think i'm addicted to pokemon crater too. DAMN MY FRIGGIN' CLASSMATES! (baaad influence)

And for the love of god, we have classes tomorrow. Great.

That's all for now, and of course, i'll end this post with a line from a song.

DAMNIT! WHY?!

Chris Benoit, one of the greatest professional wrestlers, passed away.

DAMNIT! THE NEWS FREAKIN' SHOCKED ME!

He is one of my wrestling idols. He was and IS a champion, forever.

DAMNIT! IT'S SO SUDDEN!

He will always be remembered, as a champion, as a legend.

Now i'm in a state of shock. DAMN!

pfft.. *inhales* *exhales*..

Okay, i'm a little relieved.

I'm now playing pokemon crater (like most of my friends are freakin addicted to it)
