Virtuality

I am still alive and kicking!

Heh, I have totally forgotten that I have this blog until one of my friends reminded me about it few days ago. Anyways, now that holiday is over, I am back in school again. Unlike the first semester, I have no motivation to go to school now... it feels like hell to me (actually.. I am the one that is too lazy). I got lots of computer-related subjects this semester... and man, they suck. The one that is going to screw me will be Info116 and Info117... hope I am going to make it this time.

Let's talk about games and anime. I have been playing quite a number of PS2 games these few days (one solid reason: lost my net connection during these times) and I found some good games. First, God of War has to be one of the coolest, exciting and unique action-adventure game to be created. The main character looks like an ogre... but he gives off the aura that he can kill anyone who oppose him. Give it a try and you will be thanking me everyday. Second is Atelier Iris: Eternal Mana, my friend, Gary, recommended this game to me. He was praising it so much... and I ended up borrowing it from him anyway. It is one of your 'cute' 2D RPG game, the story is so-so but what is notable in this game is the alchemist ability, give it a try and you will understand what I mean, oh and btw, this game allows you to choose either Japanese or English voice acting, so it will be pleasing for those anime watchers eh. Finally, this is where Shadow Hearts 2 comes in. In my opinion, it is one of the best RPG on the PS2. The graphics may not be spectacular (the music sucks btw), but the good overcomes the bad. Try the battle system and you will know what I mean. The combo system and the battle ring are just pure genius!

I have watched some anime as well.. will post it next time since I am too lazy to write more now -.-

I think that's all for now... ja~

Result is out!

2005-06-15T15:27:00.000+10:00

The results of the first semester exam are finally out! Surprisingly, I did pretty good, getting 3 distinctions and 1 credit. Something's wrong with my Academic (English) result though. I got 47/100... but when I checked the result breakdown, I got a 0 for my final report. So my guess is that they have not added the marks into the total... Stupid Insearch, it is their mistake and I am the one that have to fix it. I will be going on Saturday to get my result fixed... so hope everything goes well.

Also, I just finished watching Grenadier. It is a kick ass anime with lots of cool shooting actions. If you watch it, be impressed with Rushuna's reloading sequence. It is the coolest thing I have ever seen in an anime, she kicks ass (although she is a bit stupid...)! I have also been reading quite a number of manga... some recommendation for you who actually read this blog.

- I's (Best Romance Manga)
- Beck
- Imadoki!
- Lilim Kiss
- Death Note
- Midori no Hibi (Nice stuff...)
- Parallel
- GTO (Still downloading...)

One more thing is I have been playing Phantom Brave on PS2. It is good for those of you who love to level up, since the game is DIFFICULT and it requires you to level up pretty much all the time (outside the main story). I played it for a while... stuck in some levels.. and decided to give up since it will take too much of my time to level up again. It is a SRPG btw, and the battle system is really unique.

Before I end the post, just wanna tell you that Prince of Tennis anime is completed. As expected, Ryoma became the best tennis player at the end of the day. But the thing that really makes me excited is the match between Tezuka (prime condition) and Fuji. Both of them are serious and are giving everything they have to win the match. Tezuka with combination of Tezuka zone + Zero shiki dropshot against Fuji with his triple counters. Who will win? Watch it yourself. My sister got crazy over Fuji after watching the match btw... and when I say crazy, she is basically nuts over him.

That's all for today... ja~

Usual Stuff... Nothing Much

2005-06-03T10:24:00.000+10:00

Since it is a holiday... I have not been doing much as a human (mostly stayed at home and face the computer screen in my room). Gradually, the stress of the soon-to-come exam result has gone away from my mind (which is good). Other than that, have been playing Ragnarok Online, Halo Trial Multiplayer and some other GBA games (Fire Emblem: Sacred Stones anyone?). Also, have been watching this new anime, "Trinity Blood" and let me tell ya, it is another kick ass anime that is produced today. It is a Vampire type of anime (Castlevania comes into mind :D) and I believe everyone will like it for its complex storyline (not forgetting cool main character and some hot main chick). Also, have been investing most of my adsense (website) money into a new business I am on. If it works, I will be able to make it rich... so pray for me will ya :P I think that's all for now, will write in another time... ja~

Swimming Yada Yada...

2005-05-28T00:03:00.000+10:00

Heh, here comes the second entry. Basically, I have been spending my holiday working on a new site... it will be a pure gaming news site (plan to make lots of money out of it :D). Also, I went to swim today (yeah the pool is just below my house... which basically mean it is inside my apartment). Other than that, watch anime... finished Elfen Lied (it is the best... seriously), plan to watch Last Exile later, since Shi Hui kept on saying good... I mean awesome things about it. One more thing, my sister sent me this song, Katrina by David Tao.... it is awesome peeps, it is really good. He can go head to head with Lin Jun Jie with this song (screw Jay Chou... he can't sing, his voice sucks) xD

P.S: I am still very stress over my statistic exam... hope a miracle is going to happen, hopefully ;_;

Fucked Up Day!

2005-05-25T14:29:00.000+10:00

Hell yeah, this is the first entry and it is already a RANT! I am not really angry... I am just stressed over today statistic exam. I have a serious difficulty dealing with the questions in the paper... but of course, some others found it to be easy. Damn it.. I spent the whole night memorizing those shit formulas etcetcetc... and ended up forgetting pretty much everything when I entered the exam hall. Maybe I have a bad memory? I am not sure either...

On the bright side, my holiday starts today... yeah, the stupid statistic paper is the last paper of this semester, so I will have about 3 weeks of term holiday. At first, I thought of going to Singapore to visit my friends (Boon, Nico etc...), but I don't think I have the mood to go now... not after the stat exam. I am not really sure that I will be able to enjoy this holiday either... Let's hope Xuan Tran is going to be a good guy and give me a pass for the paper... Tran, if you are looking at this (I know you won't...)... please ;_;

P.S: Keith, if you are looking at this, this is what I mean by original design you gong cb! It is not some stupid skin taken fromsome skins site!

Oh if you watch anime, take a look at what I am watching, they are all located under the profile panel. Both Elfen Lied and Erementar Gerad are highly recommended!

That's all for today... Ja~
