I love Haru-chan.

Free!'s Haruka.

Haru-chan.

He's my favourite character.

It's been a long time since I last have a kuudere in my grasp. Male kuuderes are rare. I like all kinds of kuudere - those that are really cold, and those who are almost expressionless and can also be classified as dandere. Basically, any character with very little facial expression, whose pictures can easily use CTRL C CTRL V, who have more expression in their eyes, that cool gaze of theirs....

*doki*

^ Ok that is a lie.

I'm a kuu. My dere side is almost non-existent unless triggered.

Finally revamped and revived my Wordpress blog! Deleted all my fanfics, ideas and funny shit. Now it is my music database....when I get my arse to upload sheet music, midi, and link them.

Yes I named it after my Mercedes. I associate elves with the power to produce lovely music. Elves and music. Elves and nature. Elves and animals. That's why I like elves and faeries, even though most fantasy novels I read describe them as politically manipulative bastards with otherworldly features. Makes it all the more interesting aye?

So er, wait till I have time to er...arrange music? I need to find (free) software that produces music tracks.

MUSIC. ORCHESTRAL ARRANGEMENTS

I am a huge sucker for orchestral arrangements. Be they official or fanmade, they can be quite epic.

Or maybe it's just me who love the deep sounds, preferably with bass drums, timpani and crash cymbals to make it grand. But hey, no one can argue how epic such music is. Plus, when traditional instruments are also used, excuse me while I wrestle with the crazy fangirl in me.

My favourite Italian word used in music is "maestoso". It means "majestic".

Dude, why else do you think I like the orchestral arrangement of Splash Free!, for instance? Or Guren no Yumiya. Or why I'm still pretty much in love with Phantom's theme song "Release Your Spirit High"? I think, if I ever hear orchestral arrangements of my favourite songs, this Shinigami will have experienced the most number of revivals ever known to the Underworld.

I don't believe how come no one came up with Trust Me orchestral arrangement. Or Sakurane. I'll tackle Kotonoha myself. Senbonzakura used to be one of my favourite vocaloid songs until it got way too popular. I still like it, but to a lesser extent. So far, out of those I've listened, I am pretty much in love with Tsugai Kogarashi.

Boss, please teach me studio engineering. I will learn how to edit songs, arrange songs (besides piano. I can arrange songs for piano, but I want to try orchestral music.), and er, brush up my skills. You ask me what musical talents I have, I really don't know until I put my mind to it and try. Well, unless you count parodying song lyrics....er...... That's just me being lame, trying to lighten up the mood, blah blah.

And some Maple fics I found...

I realise that I lost some FB friends whom I knew in person, and people I'm acquainted. Though right now, I don't really care. My life is not ruled by the internet. Knowing the person in real life is better, besides, I don't actively talk to my FB friends. I don't PM, I rarely comment except when it matters. You can say I'm not even one who MSNs back then (coz I really couldn't be bothered, plus MSN was screwed up on my computer).

I think I'm mellowing out a lot. Going through so much emotional assault from friends and family (not on my part) since the beginning months of the year, even till now, I wonder if I had taken the friendship forged during my 4 years of uni life for granted. Maybe. I never had as many problems as I had during my pre-uni days. Perhaps, it's because I never had that much reason to quarrel with my friends.

Self, it's about time you stop trying to make your presence known. Who cares, really. You aren't that self-centred. No one needs to know everything about you. You have your own closely guarded secrets to keep. You don't have to blast out what you're thinking, what you feel, all the time.

Slowly, you will lose contact with your friends. The distance between us, I can see it widening. Stop clinging on to false hope that everything will be back to normal (if you even do that at all).

When there comes a day in which my thoughts turn a tad too cold for your liking, don't mind me.

This is by no means an exhaustive list because they are always making up silly new ones for each other, but here are some of them!

It's been some time since I last displayed my anger.

My family threw away my Nyanperona cookie box.

I BOUGHT THE COOKIES SO THAT I COULD KEEP THE BOX FOR PHOTOSHOOT. AND THEY THREW IT AWAY. I DIDN'T EVEN OPEN IT. IF THEY HAD OPENED IT AND KEPT THE BOX I WOULDN'T BE SO PISSED OFF. BUT NO, THEY OPENED IT AND THREW THE BOX AWAY.

IT WAS A PRETTY BOX.

IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE FOR YOGI.

THANKS.

DON'T EXPECT ME TO BE ANY LESS OBEDIENT NOW. I'M THROUGH WITH THIS.

I PUT UP WITH YOUR CONSTANT NAGGING. I PUT UP WITH YOUR WHIMS AND FANCY. I PUT UP WITH YOU WHO NEVER FAIL TO NITPICK AT MY JOB AT EVERY OPPORTUNITY YOU CAN GET.

DON'T EXPECT ME TO BE CIVIL NOW.

Ah XD

I'm never the best person to talk to. No one is. Some are better than others, some just annoy the hell out of you. I listen, I respond, but I know I will zone out if the topic bores me.

I am my own person. I'm not going to live up to people's expectations. I can change my behaviour if I feel there is a need to - after all I'm not that unreasonable or self-centred. But, please don't bother trying to change the underlying core of my personality.

It is unfair when two people exhibit the same kind of behaviour, but the treatment differs. I don't even know what to think of that, honestly. I mean, I can accept things if within reason. But, telling me you "have to thread carefully" is NOT an excuse unless said person is suffering, maybe from depression, loss of a loved one, whatever.

But, I will close an eye. And be as calm as the eye of a tornado.

Right now, I'm trying to calm myself and steel my mind. Experiencing the "I'm in a big group but I feel lonely" vertigo, not a good thing. Plus, I was thinking about things. Thinking, planning.

But once I calm down and clear my mind of such unnecessity, things get better.

To keep my mind in a semi-permanent neutral zone.

I suddenly remembered this, dug through my Facebook, saved the picture. Hell yeah I will do them tomorrow XDDDD

Maple patch! Cygnus is back! And we have Red coming soonnnnnnnnn omggggggggggg REDDDDDDDD UPDATE PLEASE COME SOON I WANT MY UPGRADEEEEEEEEEEE

Alas, I have no time to play. I must finish the base of my wings by Saturday so that I can start gluing all the feathers to the wings, and make my harness at the same time.

Yay! My musume are official XD

Plus I now have a full time job with a 3-year contract.

Double celebration! =D

I have less to worry, because it's them. Plus I talked to baka musume. Glad he realised what he's been doing, that idiot. I was almost at my limit this whole time since the Japan trip and Cosfest, namely because so many things happened and my own emotions were tethering on the edge.

I had to rein them in and lock them away to be smothered over time.

I feel like writing toku and Maple fanfics. But I've no inspiration as of yet.

My specialty is crack. No matter what setting.

Hmm, I shall ponder as I go to work. Jot down ideas in a notebook.

=====

I haven't been surfing pixiv in a looooonnngggggg time. Well, besides a brief moment here and there looking at Maple fanart. I think, if there's any time killer, it's surfing pixiv, tumblr, and fanfiction sites.

I used to surf Mangafox to read miscellaneous manga.

I guess, it's time for me to plan what to do when I'm bored at home. Besides Maple. Or watch videos. LIKE MAKE STUFF FOR INSTANCE.

DESIGN, PLAN, MAKE.

ARRANGE MUSIC.

Sorry, writing fanfics isn't my forte.

Training camp of high school boys

I HAVE THIS DOUJIN. EXPENSIVE PIECE OF SHIT BUT IT WAS SO HILARIOUS AND NOPE NO REGRETS

And so, I got a fulltime job, doing something I found fun during my two week part time days.

They offered me after some positive feedback. I know I have much room for improvement - I'm not that good in handling kids yet, because there are always those troublemakers. My rule is: I don't care how rowdy you are, I only want you to play what I want, to give me what I want. Then I allow you to relax a little. I will not hesitate to make you cry if you don't give me what I want. I give and take; I allow small and steady improvements. I will let you run around, as quietly as possible of course, only after you give me what I want to hear from you.

I was a former band member. We were strict with ourselves, largely disciplined, and I learnt a lot about other sections other than my own. I developed my somewhat acute sense of hearing intonation nuances. I can't tell whether you're perfect pitch or what, all I request is one sound. Blend your individuality. Be together.

A band is as good as the weakest member.

Alright, enough with depressing moments. Here's to good maple fics.

The second image, is one of my favourite pictures from his photobook. I think Pudding just looks perfect holding a sword or katana. And no, it's not because he was Joe - his Saitou was fabulous too. And I really love serious Pudding.

Hopeless fangirl, I know. But now, money's tight, so nope, I won't spend on unnecessary things.

Save up, self! ^^ Back to my frugal lifestyle oh yeah
