WTH~~~

Yay, after struggling for 2 days, i finally have some direction as to how to write my 2k essay....phew...hope its not too late, still have a couple of books to digest...zzz... i doubt this essay will be a good one....not that i write good essays aniwae~~ Was stuck in the library the whole day, having to move around and looking for powerpoints to use my laptop...i ended up in the basement sitting pathetically at a corner because the indian security guard forbid us to enter the lvl 8 section with our national library books...i emphasize, national library books... He's jus friggin lazy to check...

After that i tried lvl 9, it was a nice auntie and she said its ok if its national library book... God she saved us man....(*i was wif Med) I wanted to borrow a book from the reference section and found out that its available for loan at Tampines library, so i got my sister to go get it for me... and the person there checked the system and told her its not for loan and only for reference. Knowing the kind of staff the library has, i told my sis to go look for the book herself at the section, and yes...its available for loan...cos i friggin checked the NLB catalogue alr... when my sis told me that its available, i told her to go to the counter and slam the bloody book on her face. WAT'S YOUR PROBLEM?! ARE YOU BLIND?! !@#@#$@T%% Aniwae, although we onli sat in the Lee Kong Chien Reference section for like 1 hours plus, i finally got inspiration as in how to write my final essay...i hope it goes well...

I finally got my hand on the psp version of Spiderman Web of Shadow, and to be honest, i'm friggin disappointed... its no where near the other platform's version, its jus a stupid 2d game... and i was still wondering why is the file size so small...damn it... I researched online and realised that its a different game from the other platforms. Aniwae, Spiderman series of games nv fail to disappoint, i remember buying Spiderman 2 for pc, thinking it was the same as the one on PS2... disastrous.... I felt cheated though, activision should have put some trailer of the psp gameplay on the official site, instead of jus the main platform's.... seems like they are tryin to cheat people into buying the psp version...

So, would anione still support original games if company's like these, produces a game, and tries to mislead people into buying them? Maybe before they starts pointing fingers saying that we're destroyin the rights of the creators... they should start thinking that, they have the responsibility to be honest as well....Well, back to my essay~~~

After the net was up, i started looking for books, and i was searchin the entire lvl 8 for the topic that i want... carrying stack of books... but no.. it jus doesn't have the topic that i want....

Life~~

Yay...i'm finally back in singapore... was away to Malaysia for relative visitin for 2 days... and although i was rather unwilling to go at first...i was glad that i went in the end.... All my little cousins had really grown up...all of them in their secondary schools and all... when the last time i remember seeing them is, they were still little kids...made me feel so old... My godmother is terribly sick, and it is jus heartwrenching to see her like that... a person who is still moving ard...cookin for me and talkin to me...is now wheelchair bound...sigh~ Went to my auntie's old house, where i used to stay there alot....it really brought up a lot of childhood memories.... now tt i realised that, alot of my childhood memories were spent in malaysia.. cos my parents were raised there....so most of my relatives are over there...its really pocket hurtin durin new year when your ang baos get slashed a whopping 50% discount... T______T

Anyway, i had a fruitful trip as well... finally got a replacement for my windbreaker....at a pretty cheap price with a decent design from diadora...ya..i know the brand is abit zzz...but at the price of $30...there's nothin i can hiam animore...plus its onli meant to be used when i'm joggin...The one Med gave me, proved to be too fragile...its torn alr....at the armpits area...think i have booster armpits, when i run..my armpit will spit fire...LOL!

For some reason...this trip back was pretty emo for me...no idea why... and it set me thinking about alot of stuffs....sigh...back to singapore, back to my 2k word essay~~ banzai~~~

Rotting away~~

[REC] promotional poster...

Devil May Cry 4~ Recently i've been playing this game~~
it rocks~~ huuhuuuu~~ i'm glad its on the PC platform as well....

Hmmm...After i watched the movie again, decided to play part 2
of this kinda old game~~~

Hmmm...the review say that this was a very good game...
so i decided to give it a try~~ hope its really fun....


Last night's toll was too much on me...woke up at 130 today by a stupidly lame n scary dream~

Stuck in a multistorey carpark, with some of my classmates and some other extra people, we were trying to escaped thru a bunch of crazy zombies..No matter where we go, we jus couldn't get to the ground floor, although we could see the outside world through some of the opening...We came to a dead end, and the zombies caught up, jus as we tot we were doomed, a group of familiar face appeared and saved us, why r they familiar i hv no idea...but they were jus familiar in the dream...

They fended off the zombies, and escorted us to safety, guiding us to the ground floor of the carpark, as we went further.. i saw us go past level 1 and into the basement through this scarily black n dark door..The saviour said that level one is all surrounded and infested by the zombies. Thru the door, shooting and screaming were heard...We came thru this door alot of time and din approach it because instinctively, i thought that it was dangerous.. but they jus told us to move on...as the other team of savior were protectin us...

something was wrong...my friend were behavin strangely... they seem to want to plant something onto me...i kept my eye on them, and jus as we approached this big open carpark space... i saw wat awaited us... One by one, the group that was escaping with me were all turned into the zombies... the group that saved us, were the real zombies... Those who haven become zombies by the time they reached the basement were eliminated one by one as they try to escape thru the buildings gate *i swear the gate look like those mrt ez link gate.

The outside world was in an orange color of a cityscape.. some of the people manage to escaped and were running thru the gate alr... I gather all my strength and dash thru the ezlink gate... and jus as i felt myself being caught up by the zombies...i told myself, this had to be a dream, and i woke up... Right before i woke up, a thought occur to me...so wad if u escaped, u're goin to die in the end someday... saw this image from a friend's blog who saw it on another girl's blog....


The dream somehow reminded me of this image lol.

Taken from, www.stickgal.blogspot.com


Yea, tt's how lame...think i played too much DMC4 alr... lol..I remembered the other time i dreamt that i was chased by Moonkins (WOW characters) in my dreams. But, i always had the ability to wake up from nightmare, like when thing is goin wrong, i'll jus know tt it is too fake to be true and be able to wawke up~ But i guess, this is jus because i'm a light sleeper~~

Woke up feeling extremely tired, so i decided that i'll not do anithin today...I basically rot thru the day playing DMC4 again, and playing max payne 2... Wanted to redo the Yakuza family drawing and Gougou bang fanart, but felt too lazy to do so...Guess i'll jus allow myself to rot today... :P [REC] is finally out on theaters, do catch it, its a spanish zombie movie, not sure if anione will like it, but if u enjoyed Dawn of the Dead, you'll like it.

Tired~

A bad fanart of the Yakuza Grp 1 team done by me in a rush~~ T_T
Dun worry guys.. i'll do u justice... stay tune for a new version~~~


2 of my 3 teaser ad for my magazine...This is the onli 2 that i liked,
I really liked how Atom turned out in this teaser... Hmm...i know its not
very well done~ but... wat can u expect when its done in like 2 hours? Lol...

Finally back~ Not that i went aniwhere~ was busy with my magazine design for the past few days~ and last nite chiong all the way from 7pm to this morning~ I was like shag until i dun even know who i am. Went to Fastprint to get my stuffs printed and luckily, the result wasn't all that bad. The black did not show 2 shades of black... because i used jpeg in Indesign and used the default black color of the program to cover it up. But it worked aniwae~ so i was damn glad.

Well comments by Andri was, my layout is too boring~ and Yea~ i figured after i saw Acel's magazine. Her magazine is sooooo magazine, LOL! I mean, that's the best compliment anione can get ba. Mine is like~ zzz... Jus realised Andri gives everyone the same comments, he asked me to draw comic as well....oh well...his comments can onli be used as reference...its so gonna become an epic fail if you follow his advice closely. I really loved how my magazine turned out though, although it doesn't look like a magazine, but hey~ its the first time i worked so heavily on Indesign. I used to use Illustrator....

Upon the submission of the magazine, we went for breakfast at macdonald...and we jus tok crap until time was up. God was i tired... but it was funny listenin to Gary tok about his Sing-along-song experience as he do his work..LOL. After we received our "comments" *LOL... We went to bugis junction, Yes...lunch...i've been like eatin and eatin since yesterday~~ and because of the magazine...i had to postpone my joggin routine....but i'll be resuming right back tomoro! It was funny at lunch with the guys~~ Vincent, Wenfu, Elle, Gary, Med and i were jus tokin abt random stuffs... and it was so funny~~ commenting about KTV experiences and tokin abt songs...and Gary's favourite...biao high notes...LOL! Cannot help smiling to myself when i imagine his biao high notes and cannot hit the note's expression....

Once i reach home..i basically knocked out...until...now...think i'm gonna grab a double cheeseburger..HAAH!! Hungry~~ Ling's bf is finally back in singapore...and not much of a detail update from her~ but i can tell from her latest update that she is happy..haha....Saw a post from Javier's blog about this TV program.... I remember watchin the commercial once... and it was rather shockin~ but~ here's wat i thought... *i nv watch the show before...wat i'm sayin is personal opinion.

Well, i thought its ok if you're poor...sometimes, shit happens and there's nothin u can do...Well, some people jus dun do anithin and keep complainin...and not believin in making a change....I know how hard it is, to take a risk and all...but that aside... My point is, does being poor means that you can have a house that looks like shit, and is totally dirty and all? With cockroaches and god knows what.... If you're poor, at least dun make urself look even poorer and your house like a garbage dump... Not havin money to do renovations doesn't give you an excuse for a messy house... It starts from all the little things, being tidy, neat and clean... *shrug~ i guess i'm jus a person who is obsessed with cleaniness... Poverty and Messy house jus doesn't tie in together... *Because most of the scenes the TV program shows are basically house of those poor people in extremely chaotic and messy state.

What are you really burning~

Recently, i have been catching movies alot... not sure if u peeps seen this commercial by Mindee Ong, its on Anti piracy~ It goes with her asking What are we really burning? And she gives a short speech and ask again...and then shows a poster being burned~ As the commercial ends, she ask What are we really burning? I remembered jokingly telling Med, we would be burning our pockets if we support the original~~LOL!

I guess for people in the movie line, it is really damaging for them if the public supports downloading of movies online~ That's something i feel, impossible to prevent... I guess, if the movie is really that well made, people wud really go buy it and collect them. I realised, chinese movies here are sometimes not worth watching~ why so? imagine paying $10 on a weekend to catch this chinese movie~ and less den 2 weeks, u see it on vcd @ $6.90? Tt's still not so bad if its a good movie, cos with the surround and big screen and all, its still worth watching at the theater~ wad if its bad? I guess, with internet being like oxygen to us, all this downloading stuffs is hurting the market~~ I still like tt comment, i would be burning my pocket if i support the original~~LOL! I normally watch the movie onli after researching on wiki n watching reviews nowadays~~zz

As usual, while doing research for magazine~ i decided to change 2 of my article into 2 interviews that is more animation related...i guess doing too much of my work is too boring as well...Was researching dragonball, and i found out that the movie version is gonna be released next year april 3rd...starred by Chow Yuan Fatt as the Tortoise uncle~ and the movie was actually co-directed by Stephen Chow as well...yea...shockin~~ When i heard friends toking about it last year, i thought it was kinda lame~~ but i guess we'll see... I also found out that Astroboy will be having a 3d animation movie as well... but it'll be in the late 2009 and its a western production~~ i sure hope its good~~~ :)


Argghhh...i want it too....

This is the cheap version, $30~~ but not as cool..see video below...still hv to pump
yourself one...the fan...zzz



Super cool one that i wan, cost $350~~zzz...its automated and super cool

There is no official belt for V3, onli dx version...the one tt need to
pump yourself...but still not bad....i wud like this though, but cant

Hmm...today i spent my whole day mingering ard my sketched and net, trying to finish planning wad i'm goin to do for my magazine... When i was at Med's hse, her laptop couldn't connect to internet...and i switched on mine...its the same too....ji toot...spent like a few hours still cannot fix... i gave up...think i'll do it when i'm free...if anione know why let me know pls...zzz...our laptop is using vistas....

As i'm doing some research for my magazine...i came across this few Kamen rider belt again...ARRGGHHHH!!! i'm definitely gonna get myself one of those when i work~~its damn cool!...* to me la....

Was randomly surfin when i saw the not so secret 26 techniques of Kamen rider V3...LOL!! Thought it was interesting, cos all this was created like 30 plus years ago or even longer...but look at them, they're maybe the grand father of all those animations or comic ideas for today...

Old V3 in the center~~

New V3....

Double Typhoon
Kamen Rider V3's first and foremost weapon - the Henshin belt "Double Typhoon". Kazami Shiro transforms into V3 by performing the "Henshin", a series of moves which activates the 2 revolving pistons of the Double Typhoon, and then converts the accumulated wind energy to transform Kazami into Kamen Rider V3. Kamen Rider V3 is powered by the right "Kamen Rider No.1 Typhoon" and the left "Kamen Rider No.2 Typhoon". This allows V3 to utilize both the "Skill" of No.1 and the "Strength" of No.2

Super Antenna
The communication device between Kamen Rider V3 and the Double Riders. It can be used to communicate with the Shonen Rider Squad Headquarters and the scouts' individual Pendants.

V3 Hopper
The V3 Hopper is a surveillance advancement built into V3 by the Double Riders. Residing in a holster on the left side of V3's Henshin Belt, this mini transmission satellite is rocket-propelled vertically into the air to allow V3 an extensive view of the surrounding terrains, or to track fleeing enemies. The images captured by the V3 Hopper are directed to V3's Matrix Eye.

V3 Centrifugal Kick
Spinning in mid-air, it allows the kick to generate massive centrifugal power.
Special Hardened Muscles
By calling upon the power of Double Typhoon, Special Hardened Muscles form a powerful resistance.

V3 Screw Kick
A special technique that allows a devastating mid-air spinning kick to be dealt to an enemy's body.

Special Spring Muscles
The spring muscles can withstand up to 10 times the force put against them.

V3 Drill Attack
The counter-spinning attack used against opponent.

Red Lamp Power
Red Lamp Power draws in an outside energy directed at V3, and doubles it in return.

Energy Converter
Located in a circuit box on the right the right of V3's Henshin Belt. It allows channeling or conversion of internal or external power sources - such as the Double Rider's pendant.

O Signal
A device which records and analysis enemies' attacks and weapons. The result: V3 learns from his battles and does not lose to a repeated attack/weapon.

Cellular Strength Device
It causes the fusing of metal blades which come into contact with V3's body; best utilized through the crossing of hands, in order to block and damage metal weapons.

Red Bone Power
It concentrates all of V3's energy into the center vertical thorax, or "Red Bone", and then expel all the energy at once.

Scramble Hopper
Special Attachment to the standard V3 Hopper, which creates a sound vibration which disturbs the physical nature of mutants and legionnaires; also can create a limited personal barrier to protect humans from mutant attacks.

V3 Return Kick
Kamen Rider V3's signature move. It allows a repeat kick, via springing off the monster, to the exact point of first contact.

V3 Barrier
1,000,000 volts of electricity are run throughout the surface as an effective deflector.

Reverse Double Typhoon
It expels the energy stored in the belt, causing a power concussion to the target. After performing the Reverse Double Typhoon, Kazami can only re-transform to V3 after a three-hour period.

Oxygen Cylinders
It stores 3 hours of oxygen for marine battle.

Electro Eye
It can trace the undetectable footprints of kaijin.

Matrix Eye
The X-rays can penetrate a mutant's body to locate its weak point.

Gliding Muffler
The mufflers on the back assists in guiding V3 while flying, or gliding to earth.

Propeller Chop
Its special muscles allows arms to spin as a propeller, to deliver powerful blows.

V3 Thunder
A 1,000,000 volts electrical charge fired from V3's antennae.

Freezer Shot
It pulls full internal power to focus a sub-zero effect on an opponent or object, shot from the antennae.

Red Bone Ring
It detaches from V3's body to form a rolling weapon.

Flame Pillar Kick
Nuclear-generated power in transferred into V3's foot to allow a burning and explosive kick.

Haiz, back to my magazine~~~
managed to accomplish my 3 runs this week~~heng ah~ 60% healthy eating still maintaining~~~going strong~~~

Kamen rider 2008 Kiva

Title screen for the TV series
The rider's startin signature move.
The actor who played the rider, Wataru Kurenai in the show.
direct link for a bigger image. http://i392.photobucket.com/albums/pp9/sakuraki2k_blog/setowallpaper02logo.jpg


Hmmm.. nothing much to blog today, so i tot maybe can introduce you guys to the Kamen rider this year~ LOL! Kiva... a vampire typed rider....i jus ripped the sypnosis from wiki~ lazy to type and i hvn finish watchin it~ *Although i'm a Kamen rider fan, but i hvn really finish all the series although i alr bought the dvds~~yes i'm tt lazy....

Twenty-two years after the disappearance of his father, Wataru Kurenai lives in an infamous "haunted house" where he is destined as Kamen rider Kiva to fight life-draining monsters called Fangires, the very race his father fought years ago before his disappearance. Wataru must also deal with Kamen rider IXA who is part of an organization seeking to destroy the Fangire menace, as well as the Fangires' own Rider, Kamen rider Saga. The story is split between the actions of Wataru in the present (2008) and his father Otoya in the past (1986), slowly revealing the link between the Fangire Race and Kiva.

Intending to resume my magazine design routine again~ have been resting for like 2 days alr~~ time to get back to work~~~
