Too much usagi drop

or more like too much emo/slice of life anime/manga/comics/book/dramas/movies/tv shows. but really you got to agree with me that rin is BLOODY cute, that makes you want to have kids... okay not now but like to have a kid like her (if possible)

*finally i have a coloured ver of this shot* (screen cap from the anime, all rights goes to production I.G.)

but that is not the point of this post [yap every photo on this blog is like not really related to the topic, but really i dun have much pics in my database that i can really use]

okay but really i just need to think out loud at least once here, (if u read this, i think we really need to hang out more together, cause really, i starting to feel the strain)

I am really those kind of guys that find most shounen mangas/anime are not my thing, (god knows why are they still so popular with some people of my age group) I really follow seinen and josei stuff. (yes i read shoujo mangas if they are nice).   

take example, this season of anime, i only followed USAGI DROP ( am i turning to a lolicon or i just want to have kids.....) and Kami-sama  no memo-chou ( okay alice is a loli, but the story is good and she is a NEET). the other stuff? i dun seem to be interested at all. * i rather download season 1 to 6 of "How I Met Your Mother" than to watch... mhh tiger and bunny..* i will rather read Oyasumi Pun Pun over one piece or even FMA.*

Just look at the manga collection i have at home. Welcome to the NHK, GENSHIKEN, TRINITY BLOOD, PEACEMAKER, alot of asano inio stuff. Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service, MPD, March Comes in Like a Lion, hourou musume, ya it is a gloomy lot of manga. but i like it, i grounds me abit and realised, life is not that sucky...

okay who am i kidding, an average joe in a manga can score a girl, and i think i can do the same... think i can hold on to a relationship thanks to a manga, whose characters get together since first year of uni... who am i kidding.

OH HAPPY CNY.

It is the time of year that i earn money from just visiting relatives... but for this year it is they come visit us.. * coz i stay at my grandma house.*

on another random gear note. I just got a 2nd hand Sigma 18-50 f/2.8. fine it is not that sharp but it does its job.

Have a Happy lunar/chinese new year and a GOOD long weekend!.

Slice of life

Slice of life anime, manga or even movies gets to me... Really. Sometimes I wonder is my life so eventful? Why do all these shit ( in the manga/movies/stories) happens to me too...

In some, I felt like it will happen to be soon.

I created a club like Genshiken. My past few years sound like I copied the script of 500 days of summer. Solanin reminds me of the shit that is going to happen to me... Hourou musuko reminds me of something in the past that I forgot...

Well no wonder they are categorize them as slice of life. Coz it looks like some are a slice of mine... And yours and the author...

Islands

-----------------
I don’t have to leave anymore
What I have is right here
Spent my nights and days before
Searching the world for what’s right here

Underneath and unexplored
Islands and cities I have looked
Here I saw
Something I couldn’t over look

I am yours now
So now I don’t ever have to leave
I’ve been found out
So now I’ll never explore

See what I’ve done
That bridge is on fire
Go back to where I’ve been
I’m froze by desire
No need to leave

Where would I be
If this were to go under
It’s a risk I’d take
I’m froze by desire
As if a choice I'd make

I am yours now
So now I don’t ever have to leave
I’ve been found out
So now I’ll never explore

So now I’ll never explore

something that i got hooked on recently.

i just type into my phone.

and send msg to no where. when i do not want to share it on twitter. it is quite emo for me to do it. but i need to say it to someone but that someone used to be you. having all these shit bottled up in me is stressing me up like in the past. i will just break again, soon. and this time i dunnoe what shit i will do..

i just want to go back. and being my cheerfully self that i long forgotten since i i been moodless. at the end i still need someone to save my soul.

is it too much?

to ask for my dream girl to be like YUI??? not YUI from K-on! but YUI the singer... I am too picky i guess...

also i realised, due to i am twitting too much. my blog post cannot seem to go for more than 140 characters if i am talking about one topic. Paragraphing new post is getting really really hard and i dun think i have much to say. oh wells time to sleep

As real as it fucking gets

You will need a big space to work on a REAL photoshop...



and it is really real -> http://www.flickr.com/photos/18697966@N00/sets/72157608377333404/detail/
go to the high res one and view it. It looks CG when small coz well sharpen image looked CG...

grilled chicken omu rice...

Shokudo's omu rice is nicer than that omu rice stall at taka, but the price is still killer T.T.... ranging from SGD7.80 to SGD14.80 [excluding 10% service charge and 7% GST] but shokudo is like marche, which is firstly self-service, and secondly there is no free water -.-. The idea of market place eateries is that the staff dun need to do any service, they should be manning the food stations. and it is just a up-class/ european hawker centre....

oh wells i had a nice dinner.

why will u rather to watch a pixar film instead of a dreamworks one.

Click on pic for full view.

and if u add in monster vs aliens .. really... dreamworks... can't you beat pixar moives, whose idea were written back in 1995???

camwhore the PRO way

*cough* those that use my D40 to camwhore, you dun need to keep checking whether everyone is in... with the new D5000, there is an LCD screen for you!

hahahahha

if you have animax

dun download FMA please..

okay i actually missed the 8.30 timeslot and had to record it via hubstation...

review of animax release of FMA: botherhood.

1. it is SD.
2. Subs sized nicely white with black border
3. dun see any subbing issues... [beat that odex]
4. they sub all the small text too.. which is kinda rare for odex and and older animax subbed shows..
5. armstrong mouth is not moving...

overall. i find that it is kinda confusing for first timer to watch FMA:botherhood. 


For LAMB.

animax asia first orginal production. and sadly speaking. i was very hype up about it when i first got the posters and the concept arts. but now i watching it.

animation: kinda sadly fail... 
background art: nice but not so great
character art: 2D rendered of 3D models??? at like 10fps?
camera action: alot of jump cuts.
voice. the mouth and voice dun match and it is made to be in english, not that it is dubbed for english.
storyline: seems okay... abit confusing at the start. VERY confusing at the ending...

with this and the animation budget. i have to say what kind of animation with that kind of budget can crap up to this point?

the ending is so messy that that i am lost. one moment, jack say he can make a new plant, then next is keiko getting LAMB, then out of no where she is fighting with eve... then jack appear out of no where again... and i tell you LAMB with no dialogs is boring. the sound effects dun match the visual elements.

the story was too rush to fit in to a 1 hr short film slot. it will be better if it was a 3 or 4 part mini series.

rating for LaMB: 2/5
Very dissapointting...

the need to get uniqlo clothes...

You got to admit it. uniqlo knows how to advertise... http://www.uniqlo.com/uniqlo1000/map/

now. I have the urge to go to tampines just to shop at the only local uniqlo shop in singapore.

To that random poster galilea on my cbox

Hi Galilea,

Thank you for your keen interest in me *like really*. as from a google serach *as i find this totally funny* your hotmail account is not used on any sites and your name seem to get hits on google as an mexican actress [ imdb link here -> www.imdb.com/name/nm0600076/ ] ya... so as it looks like... i think you are just a random person *idiot* looking for the wrong guys coz this type of adverting yourself is totally stupid!!!. If you are really a singaporean and FEMALE, all the well please post again then i know you are trully interested...

Regards
Togusa...







LOLZ!!!!!!!!! man the things people do to find love...
come on...

meeting guys online this way = you are going to get screwed...
but well it is the same as meeting idiots in clubs for one night stands...
as it looks like... if the girl is really a real girl in sg and cute... she will not need to do this as come on guys will go after her...

oh well back to normal blogging in the next post... lazy to do editing for this one

i need a break..

it is not even the second week of school, and i am starting to break down...

this kinda of happened at the start of every school term i had since primary school...
after spending weeks alone during the holidays, going back to a class is so unreal. I felt that i am using a different face and personality when i am in school or outside and it is tiring me out fast...

maybe what hector said to me last sem during the one on one discussion section was true... I dun belong anywhere, i create a persona to fit in. that why no 2 different groups of people i know can match up with the other group.

Cosplayers are still weird to many, Including photographers...
Some groups of photographers i know dun match up with other photographers i know...
My classmates in secondary school are different to the people i know in robotics
and my scouts buddies never understand view on robotics, photography and cosplay...

he kinda of guessed that i am alone too much that i try too hard to try to make friends yet at the end of the day, no one is there for me... so hard that it is a burden for me that i cannot take it soon...

maybe i really need to go back to IMH again for depression...

results...

it is 5 days since the release of the results so... here is it...



and yes i did badly...

2D art: i was hoping for a B but i think those works at the start of the term put me down...
design typo : i think i mess up for the final submission as i was the last to submit... *overslept*
IntroCG : well 4 nights of maya paid off.
Socpsyc : i thought i going to fail it from the start. so heck that it is a D.
Storytelling&boarding : for someone that scored B4 for english, YAY!!!! and note i cannot write other than emo crap.

now the joke of IS...
all my last year IS got transfered over as stated in the results... but they want me to retake Sports & wellness and CATS again... -.-

well going to settle it with IS office soon.

on a side note... my flu is still on and i am shooting tmr -.-

laughing man

coming soon to EOY... lolz... dun mind i lazy to invert the photo.
