The Melancholy of Kon's Readers

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?

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)

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.

I made a new sig last night based on GTAIV.



I originally wanted it to have Lola only, without Niko, but it looks plain without him so.. there you go.

P.S. I'll be posting an entry about my short vacation soon.

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!

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.
