origami mania

Princess Mononoke. How it relates to the environment. Wow, interesting GP video to watch nya. =) Anime!!!

I haven't done any handicraft for years, 'fraid my creativity isn't up to the mark. But CNY decoration is here, and you know, I've decided on a twist that's different from other previous decorations. Shan't reveal it - only 07S210 knows. I'm the mastermind behind the noticeboard decoration, and yeah, recycled materials are part of it. ^^

All I can say is, I can do it during lectures if I'm bored. Haha...

Anyone just tell me a good anime to watch? I'm waiting very patiently for Special A, and I'm waiting for Prince of Tennis OVA 18 to come out, not to forget Naruto Shippuuden movie and Bleach movie 2. Tsubasa Chronicles is now shown as OVA entitled 'Tsubasa Tokyo Revelations'. I doubt I'll be watching since I've already read the manga...

my reading preferences

Second entry of the year. I borrowed six books from the library yesterday, all horror and mystery. Don't look at me like I'm nuts - I've switched my genre preference from fantasy to horror, or more precisely, supernatural horror. In my collection are two movie stories: 'Boogeyman' and 'Ju-On'. I must say, 'Ju-On' is kind of complicated. In the end, no one dealt with the antagonist. Maybe I could find the sequel...if I could. =) But I daresay, the cover was spooky somewhat if you look at it in the dark. Coz the face is ghastly white, staring at you with bloodshot eyes, it's the pale features that stand out in the dark. I asked my sis to try it, she refused IMMEDIATELY. I don't get spooked easily, so at least I can stand horror. But I don't like gory horror, like sadistic torture in 'Saw' for example. I don't watch movies, but from the description in the news, well, I believe it's time to cut a line between sadistic horror and supernatural horror. It's not that I can't stomach it (go watch Peacemaker Kurogane or Hellsing Ultimate - they're anime, but try taking the bloody scenes. Or Ghost Hunt, about as good as a ghost story with the music and all.), more like it's disgusting.

Well, I was doing this personality test because of school request: http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/JTypes1.htm

Quite accurate in a way. I'm a INTJ, a scientific type of person. Not very sociable, more introspective, and has little patience for flirting. True...any friend or relative of mine will know that I cannot tolerate flirting on me. Haha...I'm ready to pack a punch anytime.
Does anyone know I write stories? Not for viewing pleasure duh, inspired by the stories I read, the anime/manga I know, my daily life. And all are fantasical fiction. No romance, I can't write sci-fi, normal life is simply too boring unless you count a girl with lots of fiery attitude and ready to fire at anyone whom she finds deserve it....

Year 2008: Back to school

Yo, it's 2008 now.

I haven't changed much, still the same old me. With 'A' Levels coming, I'm kind of trying to find time for revising old stuff. Leisure? Other than reading manga, making handphone themes, reading, I don't think I need more than 2 hours weekly now. I mean, I haven't watched anime for quite some time. Other than waiting for Suteki Tantei Labyrinth, Majin Tantei Nougami Neuro, Prince of Tennis Nationals OVA episode 18, Rosario+Vampire and Special A, nah. Oh ya, still have Naruto Shippuuden movie and Bleach movie upcoming this year...as in, I'm waiting for the subs. And also Hellsing Ultimate episode 4. It's OVA for manga volumes 4 and 5. I've watched 1 to 3. Damn bloody. =) Not for the faint-hearted or people who can't take horror well.

Sweet! Naruto Shippuuden movie 2 is going to be out this year! Go youtube for the short trailer. Think it's between Sasuke and Naruto. Yeah, I still like Naruto even though I'm hankering after Prince of Tennis. Yuck, Jiraiya died, and we don't know Itachi's fate. Not until this week...unless Masashi Kishimoto decides to leave a nice cliffhanger and wander off to film Team 8 and Team Kakashi's battle with Tobi.

Yukimura vs Ryoma final showdown! Whee~ Then again, much as I want Yukimura to win (he's supposed to be very powerful - child of god nya) I want Seigaku to win. Rooting for Yukimura but prefering Seigaku to win the zenkoku taikai...any fan like me is sure to be in a conflict. Luckily it's not Tezuka playing Yukimura -- of course I want Tezuka-buchou to win! ^^

Then I wonder what happens after the zenkoku taikai. It sounds like it's ending this year. Maybe I'll just rewatch everything when I've nothing to do, haha. Konomi Takeshi creating a sequel, lol. High School tennis. Probably in our dreams.
