台湾へ 行きます

明日　台湾へ　行きます。　うわ、心が　何か　グルグルですね。

今日は　楽しいですよ。　ありがとうな。＾＾

でわ、みんな、じゃね～

また来週～

CA woes

I wonder if I can get my sister to help me access Facebook - Pet Society and Castle Age mainly - so that I won't worry about my rewards. Damn, why CA rewards have to be collected within 3 days?! I'm not bringing my laptop to Taiwan too. Whatever for? I can survive without the computer/laptop for several days.

Anyway, I'll be sourcing for prop materials later. Tonfas and Hibird, here I come! XD Hmm, maybe I should rewatch Reborn for an idea how to make Vongola box, lol. No way am I making Roll the purple hedgehog - I haven't learnt how to make toys yet, even if I can sew for good measure -.-

Okay, will be out the whole day. *loves Bras Basah* ^^

YOUKO X BOKU SS by Fujiwara Cocoa

Summary The Shirakiin house's daughter, Shirakiin Riricho, who has a complex about being unable to live independently and unprotected, feels the need to move out and live on her own under the condition of residing in the mansion named "Ayakashi Kan." In this mansion, only those who have cleared a very strict examination could reside in it, and for each resident, they are accompanied with one agent of the Secret Service (S.S.). Although Riricho has rejected the company of the S.S., while residing in the mansion she finds out that the agent dedicated to protecting her is actually the Fox Spirit whom she previously rescued.

Interesting art...interesting plot...

fanfics i may read

Fanfics...if I have the time:

They All Fall Down - HPxDGM crossover. I love good, action-packed crossovers with as little romance as possible.

The Muggle with White Hair - BleachxHP crossover. Hitsugaya again. Though I agree, for Bleach and Harry Potter crossovers, the best guy to appear is always Hitsugaya. I'll find it weird if it were Ichigo and co, well, unless you include Hitsugaya, Rangiku, Ikkaku, Yumichika, Renji...ya know, like how their gigai entered Karakura High? XD

Carry Our Burdens - HPxNaruto crossover, one of my favourite crossovers ever. I also like NarutoxBleach crossovers, but I prefer those that involve them working together to defeat combined enemies.

The Tale of Uzumaki Naruto after Death - NarutoxBleach crossover. Naruto dying and becoming shinigami is okay, as long as he doesn't get into any bloody relationship with any female shinigami...nor male for that matter.

Hidden Identites - HpxNaruto crossover. Nothing like a Naruto sent to Hogwarts to protect him story. Better than those Harry is the Uchiha brother, cousin whatever nonsense. How can a British and Japanese be cousins, or brothers for goodness sake??!!!? *mimics Inui* Illogical...

Harry Potter crack ficlets - HPxNaruto ficlets. one of the funniest I've ever read, which explains WHY I love reading such crossovers, besides the fact that they are so similar it should be exploited. XD

=====================

Instincts either work or backfire on me. Usually it's the latter, but the damage is done. I can't do much except wait for the results in a few months, and also study for tomorrow's exam. I must try to get a B...

I just happened to come across a forum about clicheness in most shoujo. Me too - I'm SICK of seeing the same old generic plot appear and appear again. Shoujo manga just means manga targeted at girls. Shounen manga means manga targeted at boys. And all these are in general, because, seriously, I prefer shounen manga for the amount of action I can get. Shounen manga can also be cliche - weak boy turns powerful and all that - but the important thing is that in shounen manga, character development is more pronounced. The weak protagonist didn't achieve his great strength in one night. He does it by training, by all the events happening around him, and heck, look at Naruto and Tsuna! Tsuna's development is pretty good, and Naruto practically inspires us. Anyway, Naruto isn't weak - he was shunned, he was ostracized, he grew up an orphan, but yet he wants to protect his home and he cherishes friendship.

Take that, backstabbers and hypocrites. Anger Naruto and he'll go Kyuubi on you.

On a side note, if you want to read alternate universes, go find those dark Naruto fics. There're plenty out there.

Now I'm moving on to reading josei manga, which are targeted at the older female audience or simply put, girls my age and older. The cliche is less, the art is beautiful, there is a more mature and realistic feel to the story than shoujo. And presenting to you, two new manga that have caught my interest. One is shoujo (but hey, it's mystery, so who cares), the other is josei AND fantasy!!!!!!

KEISHICHOU TOKUHANKA 007 by Kaji Eiri

警視庁特犯課007

SHOUNEN HAKARYUUDO by Kikuta Yui

少年羽狩人

Summary

From Aerandria Scans:

Ciel is a member of the conservation group that protects fairies from hunters who try to hunt for their wings, while Ren is a fairy-wing hunter. The encounter between these two will open up the door to a tale woven with fates.

I LOVE THE ART~!!!

新撰组 PEACE MAKER

I wonder if I should watch this Jdrama which is eerily similar to the anime Peacemaker Kurogane. But Yuuta=Okita? Tomo=Hajime? I don't know who Araki is supposed to be, but he's so cool!!! I was nearly squealing when I saw a Kaidou-like Tomo - KAKKOI!!!! 9 episodes, each 23 minutes or so long...

I want my Kamen Rider W episode 32 NAO!

やああ。。。Found out that Meiden IS coming to Singapore on 21-27 July this year when I visited the MJCSB FB group page. Nurbaya-senpai was asking if any alumni is free to allow homestay for 3 days. I wonder if Tatsuya and Yuuri are coming this time...I REALLY WANT TO GO TO THE CONCERT TO LISTEN TO THE MUSIC AND MEET THEM!!! Thank goodness it falls during my super long holiday break, but this time, none of the NTU undergraduates can go to Nagoya because we'll be having exams.

Whoa, will alumni be able to take part again? I want to see Tatsuya and Yuuri again. When will Cheryl be back? Maybe we can attend the concert together? Choon Rui, are you aware?

I'll spazz over this again after my exams, and after I come back from Taiwan. IS ANY 07 BATCH AWARE OF THIS? I don't know, circulation sucks, even if Facebook is available for us to spam each other's walls with.

Still, I'm not sure if it's correct. After all, ex-buchou posted it 2 months ago. No one bothered to look I guess. How many of us are connected with our current juniors? I don't even know which of my kouhai are now in MJCSB, coz seriously, I haven't visited MJ since the release of A level results.

Hmm...will any MJCSB'07 read my status? I posted this:

名電は　シンガポールへ　来ますか？？！！　本当ですか？！？！

It'll be buried. It'll definitely be buried...I don't know, should I email Tatsuya and Yuuri? I know the last email I received from Tatsuya was on New Year's Eve. It'll be weird if I write something like this:

今年　名電は　シンガポールへ　来ますか。　

Oh well, back to fighting my gold dragon which Richard summoned, and Stifler's Call to Arms regarding Bahamut. I like how they allow us to choose which type you want to be, but I think it'll be uneven. I chose Rogue because I can contribute a lot with my stamina - now I'm building my stats for tackling monsters. Will do quests slowly, haha.

KHR fics:

Teach Me Love

HaruXKyoya...for now. Haha, this author made the characters in character. ^^ It was funny reading this fic, lol.

=============

More ideas for VAS fic - Gender Bend (mostly on my part *SIGH...*)

Chou Kamen Rider Den-O and Decade is totally a crossover!!! I see Kiva's Garuru possessed by Urataros, Basha possessed by Ryutaros and Dogga by Kintaros!!! And omg, wtf, Tsukasa in feather boas (possessed by Sieg)?!!? I was so forcefully reminded of ATOBE in FEATHER BOAS that I couldn't stop laughing. Then it's totally Atobe vs Ryoma (since Dori is Chou Den-O while his jiichan is a 19-year-old kid. I can't say late teen because he looks only 14!)

I KNOW why people love Den-O. Momotaros is so hilarious!!! But I like Shotarou better, especially when he wants to punch someone when he's in W form (using left hand), and Philip calmly pushes down the left hand with the right. XDD

Can't wait for the next episode of Kamen Rider W!!!

Anyway, I must try to come up with a VAS fic. Another theme in mind - Castle Age. ^^ But only me, Lizzy, buchou, Stifler and Weiliang are active players =.= Well, I think I might be able to come up with a fic, lol

Inherit the Will of Fire!

Naruto Shippuuden the Movie 3: Inheritors of the Will of Fire is the best Naruto movie ever. The ending is so funny - Kakashi is ***!!! Haha...poor Naruto...Naruto fujoushi will sure complain - SasuNaru or GaaNaru or NejiNaru or whatever pairs...(if I were a fujoushi, I'll go for SasuNaru. Naruto makes such a cute little fox)

Humour fiction for VAS inspiration:

A Meowsy Potion-- for Hiriko-chan

Link and Luigi -- Crazy ideas from this awesome fanfic writer

Workplace? -- read till your eyes bleed

The only thing I will never write is a VAS chatroom. It'll go bonkers, I swear. I might as well CTRL c CTRL v those super long FB threads with 100++ comments.

More ideas, like a VAS radio fm, VAS newscast (I won't attempt that though it's a tempting idea - I don't know what nonsese news I can come up with. Might as well write drabbles and that radio fm XDD). Ah, ideas...*is neglecting her HG801* XD

I just have to link these:

...Owner's Guide and Maintenance Manual

http://www.fanfiction.net/u/560513/Akari_Shinju

http://www.fanfiction.net/u/774073/Expresso-Latte

Owner's Guide and Manual to UZUMAKI NARUTO


Awesome idea! ^^ Too bad, I like my Tenipuri Facebook idea better. I thought of it on a whim, wondering what kind of crazy things I would like to introduce to the world of parody and humour. Konomi-sensei is wacky, more insane ideas won't kill. At least I haven't made them OOC.

If I were to come up with more Facebook ideas for KHR, Bleach I'll never finish my fics.

BACK TO STUDYING!!!!!!!!!!!

Tensou Sentai Goseiger!!

Tensou Sentai Goseiger!!
~~ The cutest super sentai cast!! ~~
Chiba Yudai, Ono Kento & Hamao Kyosuke

I wonder if I should watch this Sentai series...I'm not a fan of sentai because I find the villains really fake, and the megatroids weird, but this sentai cast is so cute!!! Hello, Mao-chan and Ono-kun? Maybe I'll wait till there are about 10 episodes uploaded then I'll see if there's anything interesting. Coz so far, I'm watching Kamen Rider W. Each Kamen Rider series has a unique storyline, but no, I'm not going to watch them all. I started from KIVA because of Setomaru (Kikumaru hoi!), then moved on to Decade because of Inoue and Murai (Atobe oresama and Shishido geki dasa XD), and now W because of Renn (Marui tensai teki).

I haven't laughed so hard in ages, well, besides watching Kamen Rider W WHICH IS JUST AT ITS MOST EXCITING PART! Anyway, here're the fics:

Communication Breakdown

Snapping Point

It's somewhat similar to some other anime genres but is hilarious nonetheless. I'm finding humour fics because I need some idea how to start on my VAS humour fiction. I've several titles in mind. The craziest so far was Hiriko-chan senpai's birthday celebration, and maybe those meetings at Amos' house XD

106を　勉強します！日本語も　勉強します！後は。。。

I've been studying 104 which is seriously difficult - I'm very bad at designing circuits, as I've found out when I looked through the exam paper. Oh well, and playing CA and leveling up at an insane rate. Now I'm level 44. I have to slow down or I won't be able to summon another dragon. I need a gold dragon to get Wall of Fire, then I can wait for Stifler and Weiliang to help me and Lizzy summon Red and Emerald. I want my Helm of Dragon Power too. ^^

That aside, I resumed watching Kamen Rider W simply because it's pretty interesting as the story progresses. It's quite funny too, seeing Marui rap. But Renn was part of Tenimyu. ^^ And seeing Phillip-kun (can't remember the actor's name) IS A TRAP!!! He's so cute in a dress!!! And he looks so feminine too! And Akiko is a bishie in her disguise! My gosh, episode 24 must be one of the craziest ever, and the ending...I nearly thought I was hearing "Tensai teki?" or something, which is Marui's line.

Kamen Singers? Cursed dolls? O.o

=============

Oh wait, I want to write VAS fics...after exams. Since Weiyang gave me an idea about being an occult society (PARANORMAL) and Shufen with her Visual Arts Shinigami Society (lol, like the Women's Society in Bleach. XD) and MTG VAS, yes, I can play around with these three themes.

I've got a humour theme that suddenly popped in my mind.

[VAS]

chapter title examples:

S is for Soul Society
S is for Shadow Chair
S is for Sunny and Joan <--XDD
S is for Studying <-- I KNOW what kind of nonsense I can throw in for this topic, haha

===========

Now, after the defeat of Genesis, I will NOT participate in anymore Call to Arms. I need to retain my current level (in which I just leveled up AGAIN) so that I can summon another dragon. Hopefully it's a gold dragon...

Hakuouki

I was right. Hakuouki, which follows the Shinsengumi setting in the real story, isn't any normal lovey-dovey otome game. It's dark. There can be bad endings. The endings aren't always happy.

http://otomegamers.blogspot.com/search/label/Hakuouki

Anyway, I'm buying wigs for TYL Hibari and Gin. The white one I have with me looks more Allen Walker than Gin, so I need a better one. Damn, I MUST save up if I want to do cosplay...maybe I'll get my purple shirt in Taiwan if I can't find in Singapore? Hopefully it'll be cheaper in Taiwan, lol. Anyway, it's not as if I'm a spendthrift - the only things I shop for are stationery, books and more books. Okay, sometimes manga and Nihongo no zasshi, but mostly I buy books.

Oh well, gotta study 105. I'm now reading through the exam papers....while replenishing my energy and stamina. Engaging in 4 monster fights is no small feat for a low level character like me. Stamina runs out pretty easily. Well, I'll probably up my energy and stamina first then concentrate on upping attack and defense - need more stamina to fight monsters, and more energy to do quests. Once I finish Land of Earth I'm going to fight Colossus.

And I probably should stop going into battles. It's a waste of my time, though gaining demi points is kinda fun. How do you know whether you'll win or lose anyway? Baka ja nai no ka? I'm happier gaining more XP in fighting monsters and doing quests than battling and losing my cash. Well, I can't help it if some ass keeps making me lose money by repeating the duel. COME FACE ME HEAD-ON, TEME!! *pulls out katana*

Which reminds me of a manga I recently picked up, called, well, Katana. xDD It's interesting to see the sword's true form, and learn about the types of swords and how samurais are supposed to hold them. Very educational. Shishou! XD

New KHR pair to support - FonXI-Pin! XD Besides TsunaXKyoko, CononelloXLal, and maybe GokeXHaru

Okay, I should go sleep now. Have been idly camping at FB, studying trees (will do graphs tomorrow) and battling monsters. I must thank Weiliang and Stifler for their insanely high levels so that they could summon monsters for battles. Helps me level up faster too.

*hugs Stifler-neko for the item I need to forge Goden Hand*

*hugs Lizzy for the items needed to forge Glacial Sword*

Now to make mystic armour...and it's all thanks to Weiliang, Lizzy, Stifler, Richard and John for sending the gifts. Okay, now I'm worshipping Ambrosia. During exam period, I'll worship Azeron...

KAICHOU-SAN NO KONEKO
会長さんちの子ねこ

Cats and megane bishonen = LOVE
Reiichiro without glasses is hot nya. For a moment I thought I was seeing Hiwatari-kun, then Watanuki with neko mimi. Neko mimi moe~ xDD *blames Usui for this* It's going to be an interesting manga nya, though I didn't like the drawing of the kitten. Still, it's such a cute story I want to write a fanfic as inspired by this.

Which reminds me - I want to write VAS humour drabbles with themes for each chapter.

=============

I really want to cosplay Hakuouki, or at least Shinsengumi. Damn...maybe next year or something? For now, I'll concentrate on getting my TYL Hibari stuff like wig, black suit, tie, purple shirt. I'm fine with buying a purple shirt *wonders if I can get one in Taiwan...hmm*

Erm...about the shoes...HMM...though I'm an amateur, I prefer going into details. Meaning, I want to look the character, act the character.

Right, before that, STUDY! BENKYOU SHIMASU!!!

pretty accurate

http://www.quizbox.com/personality/test82.aspx

Your view on yourself:

You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You like serious, smart and determined people. You don't judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren't necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people's eyes.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.

The seriousness of your love:

Your have very sensible tactics when approaching the opposite sex. In many ways people find your straightforwardness attractive, so you will find yourself with plenty of dates.

Your views on education

Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.

The right job for you:

You have plenty of dream jobs but have little chance of doing any of them if you don't focus on something in particular. You need to choose something and go for it to be happy and achieve success.

How do you view success:

You are confident that you will be successful in your chosen career and nothing will stop you from trying.

What are you most afraid of:

You are afraid of having no one to rely on in times of trouble. You don't ever want to be unable to take care of yourself. Independence is important to you.

Who is your true self:

You like privacy very much because you enjoy spending time with your own thoughts. You like to disappear when you cannot find solutions to your own problems, but you would feel better if you learned to share your thoughts with a person you trust.

If your life was a Movie, What Would the Sound Track Be?

So, here's how it works:
1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc)
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
6. Don't lie and try to pretend your cool... and alotof the songs fit with the setting

insanity abound

My 1100th post.

I was reading this insane KHR humour fic [ What the Ballz is that guy Talking about? ] and laughing my ass off at the pure insanity. Too OOC, but nevertheless funny. Now, if only there were humour fics that make the characters in character (like Tenipuri Facebook, duh. Even if I exaggerate some many facts, they happen to be based on their personalities and what others think of them. I didn't make up any of their characters), I'll bombard the author with reviews. XDD

I need to stay away from romance fics and read more humourous ones to stay afloat in this exam season. Forget about yaoi - humour is just more entertaining.

Maybe I can write something like this for VAS. It'll be fun, more fun than writing oneshots which I have to think of a storyline. ^^

===============

Ojousama wa Oyomesama

小姐是新娘/千金小姐新嫁娘

It sounds interesting. I also need ideas for my story anyway. Can't always focus on Kazuko. I need to introduce Yasumi, Miura, Kairyu and perhaps another OC to the story too.

ARRR!!

Changing my Facebook language to Pirates then Japanese is awesome. ARRR!!!

*goes into linguist mode and wonders if it's Norse or Scottish*

Anyway, I finally got my hands on Hakuouki anime! It is a reverse harem, but more focused on Hijikata's storyline (HIJIKATA~!!!!!!!!) so I think Chizuru will end up kissing a blood-soaked Hijikata. But different from other reverse harem in the sense that it's bloodier, it's darker, and I think the romance is toned down. More action please.

Haha, Yukimura Seiichi, your sister's name will be Chizuru. I don't care. I'm introducing your imouto to my story, so be prepared! XDD

Heh, next Monday's listening is going to be tough. I don't mind the speed, since I can understand the gist of the conversation, but I really hate numbers =.= Finally, I managed to remember (and think fast) the days of the month, the months, the time...

私の　誕生日は　八月二十一日です。

I will prepare for my oral, of course. On Sunday, haha. It's easy, though I'll most probably be writing in romaji. Easier to read, even though I can read Japanese quite fast now (so fast until I read wrongly, urgh. You can look at the number of akai batsu on my worksheets)

Once I'm done with my oral speech preparation, I'll type it out in nihongo. I hope I don't scare the shit out of the people after me, lol. I'm not trying to show off, but I really practised speaking fluently, or tried to. Naturally, I want A

Semester coming to an end

Because this neko is so kawaii. ^^

• Mistress of the Blade

• Shinigami

• Cat tamer (or animal tamer in general)

• Foodaholic, or whatever you call someone who keeps getting the "first blood" when it comes to food

and my resume is still growing...

Not a Jack of all trades, master of none! I'm already the Mistress of the Blade, haha. The rest are just sub-titles. ^^

Gin-chan, what on earth is your bankai? Messing around with my blades, arn? *dangerous aura*

Well, I finally finished lab8. Kudos to Yanling, Chui Eng, Jun Long and Yi Zhuang for helping me debug and explaining how to do the methods, and for sending me their methods so that I can understand better. Different code, different inspiration, same outcome. Ah, I still hate graphs though. *borrows Gin's katana* Oh wait, Gin is my other half...

I wonder if I can prepare for lab9 - I need at least a B so that I can average out. If my third marker is another strict one...so sorry, Lady Luck, you're going to fall under my blade. But I am generous - please choose which blade you want to die under.

HAKUOUKI ANIME IS OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Alright, now to download it when the subs are out, haha...*was just listening to the dialogue while studying Maths* Er, I'll leave lab8 till later, once I figure out how to do traversal of adjacency matrix. I don't even know

*probably has no time to watch any anime except Kaichou wa Maid-sama on Animax until after 28 April*

List of Spring anime I plan to watch:

1. Hakuouki
2. Kaichou wa Maid-sama
3. Angel Beats
   
4. Black Rock Shooter
5. UraBoku -- shounen ai or not, it's less apparent, so I'm fine with it. I even plan to marathon YnM after exams. I don't like BL in general, honestly speaking. Mild is okay. (YnM manga isn't mild, lol. Sadistic Muraki...) No shotacon please - it's very disturbing.
   

And continue with Nodame Cantabile Finale and Durarara after exams, before I fly to Taiwan.

Anyone wants to cosplay Shinsengumi? ^^ I'll be cosplaying adult Hibari for Cosfest (and Lizzy is current Hibari ^^ How interesting. Omoshiroi XD). Not sure whether to do yukata Hibari (black yukata) or suit Hibari (black suit, black tie, purple shirt) yet. Whichever is more wallet-friendly, I'll do it, lol. Yukata looks easier, but to wear it to piano lesson will be attention-grabbing, especially on the train. Black suit, even worse. Either way, I'll be wearing a wig and contact lenses and binding my chest. Thank goodness I'm flat-chested, so one or two layers is enough. XD

18 days to exams. I need to study hard, because I need a higher GPA than first semester. Stupid econs pulled down my GPA. I MUST get at least a B- for 105 no matter what.

Harutoki 3 special

Harukanaru Toki no Naka de ~Owari Naki Unmei~ and Kaichou wa Maid-sama! anime are out and subbed! How many episodes will HaruToki 3 have? One? It's a special? Damn. I want to know the ending of this otome game... I like HaruToki 1 the most (Akuram is so beautiful...and the Hachiyou Shou are awesome in their own ways), but HaruToki 3 has a more interesting heroine. She, the Hakuryu no Miko, knows how to wield a sword. She can kick ass if she needs to. And her sneakers...! In this Heian era! (based in Kyoto)My favourite guy here is Hakuryuu - he's voiced by Okiayu! Okay, that was part of the reason why I like him, but Hakuryuu is so beautiful!!! Childlike innocence, omg! *glomps a Tezuka who has childlike innocence*

============

Alright, how to approach lab8? Should the matrix be stored with the edges of the connected components or the input elements? "...convert to adjacency matrix representation..." HMM... which means to store as edges? Then how to do traversal and print out the required nodes?
