YH FINALLY UPLOADED THE 'NEW YORK, NEW YORK' PICCIES <3
*is happy!*
Love her captions xD And I look.. Okay in the pics. Happy with my outfit wahaha.
We (me and YH) did the shoe-design-thing at her house today :DD Because CM's lacks the aesthetic materials capability (i.e. I don't have acrylic paint nor fabric markers). Really grateful to YH and YJ for the input on the design, especially the colour scheme :)) woo!
Top view (I love the little orange critter with the star :3)

The other side viewVery happy with the design :)
Random waste of photobucket hosting space:
... Taken on the sly by YH.

I knew it.
YouTube removed OVA 21 and 22 already.
The decision to watch them last night (cough- early
early this morning) was correct. It was worth sacrificing my sleep (and homework. But that worked out fine in the end :D No KI today! Sat in for GP hehe)
Gah, so sleepy now. Shall attempt to finish my yellow watermelon and knock out zzzzz-
OUCHWTF. MY FOOT JUST CRAMPED UP #^%@^%!#!!
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD:
OMGWTFBBQ.
I FOUND POT OVA 21 AND 22 ON YOUTUBE.LIKE. FINALLY.OMG.OMG.CAN'T.STOP.SMILING.LAUGHING.DYING FROM RIKKAI GOODNESS.
GO SANADA~!
*does banana cheer*

ANIME CLUB BOOTH KILLED ME TODAY.In a good way of course.
I reaffirm how obsessed I am with anime. Particularly Prince of Tennis.
I met my primary school friend on the way home! :D
Today is a happy rainy day.
Thursday, July 24
It's raining now.
Rain at night is nice :)
Went for the stained glass workshop today. Quite fun though my art piece always comes out crappy. Same thing happened for the mosaic workshop too GR>
Really glad YH went with me :D If not I'd be all alone (sooo pathetic) and her stained glass came out real cool :D
Sometimes I wonder about my aesthetic ability *sighs*
GAH! Really really want my faceless-lion-cca-compilation tee-shirts! And rainbow-octopus-faces postcard!!! Don't care if I'm late for lit I want to buy them!
Jack of all trades, master of none.

Woo! Played so many games today :D
First was captain's ball with my class during the house session. GR> L.I.D irritates the hell out of me (but well, he
did contribute to the game so I guess it's alright xD)
We won (yeah!) and got prizes but the important thing was we really played well as a class :D WOO! GO Ao1!!
Next was softball training. Did long hits and gym. Gah! Been so long since we last did long hits. Felt odd standing on the field catching pops and grounders-
But you feel alive :)
Gym was fun too. Got to do leg presses, sit ups (YJ is a strict trainer D:) and lots of other stuff. Woo! I am on my way to getting abs :D I think *cough*
Finally, BASKETBALL! Finally touched one after
soooooo long- as always, totally suck at playing. Shots mostly off though I did manage to pull a little trick/fake move.
Sigh- I miss the days when I played basketball with the bio guys in 4K.
It was so easy then. Not just the playing, the friends, everything.
I guess this is what it means to be growing up.
Or else we'll always stagnate xD haha.
I seem very high. Think it's related to me getting the Rock Night tickets confirmed and ordered :DDD
I am SO the man!
I'm obsessed with efficiency.
Economics is brainwashing my brain---------!!
We all must aim to be productively and allocatively efficient :)

My pool skills are improving :D
My temper is not.

Damn you, damn you!
Not everyone, not
anyone, can destroy me the way that you do.
I hate you for it.
I hate what you can do to me with one simple word.
I hate that I hang on to your every command.
I hate that you can throw me away and I won't even complain.
I hate you so much I can't help but love you.
Please be all right.
Don't kill me like you do.
The dreams are coming back.They've already come back, stupid.

You know what, you know what?
There's actually a very high possibility that I'd get to go to Taiwan in October to watch Tenimyu. LIVE.
My parents are totally cool with it (my dad even found the official chinese website for it while I didn't D:) and technically, there's nothing 'important' on during the dates. As in, there's still school but my parents are totally cool if I'm just missing lessons.
I'm in total shock right now.
My dream (current life dream even?) actually has a possibility of being
fulfilled. It's kinda overwhelming. I watched Tenimyus on YouTube and now I actually have a tangible chance of watching it LIVE. It's just... mind-boggling.
I really think my parents rock now ha :)
I feel kinda bad 'cos they've been spending so much money on me this year and they don't even like Prince of Tennis.
Gah. I'm seriously touched.
It sounds weird but I'm actually kinda... frightened. Like, if I really get to see this Tenimyu (OMFG I GET TO SEE HYOTEI, ATOBE!!)...
Damn my mind just isn't capable of processing that right now.
I am literally stupified.
Of course, there's the part about actually getting a hold of tickets but STILL.
There IS a very high chance.
And that's the closest I've been to achieving something that..
I wanted to achieve.
My understanding of my life and myself is changing so rapidly- I can barely breathe.
It's scary to find out that cm actually has goals. Or is capable of goals.
So is this what others (who have fulfilled their life dreams) feel like?
Excitement, a little trepidation...
It's just. This is the first time in life I've wanted something so much I call it a 'life dream' (no matter how silly it sounds). And the fact that there may be a chance to achieve it... Well, it excites and terrifies me all at the same time.
I'm just super happy my parents let me do what I want to do, trusting that at least I know what I'm doing (they hardly supervise my studies etc).
Freedom? An Aquarius needs LOTS of it xD And I finally understand why. (didn't get it when I read that in horoscopes last time)
Yeah. I'm just seriously overwhelmed right now.
Too many good little small things in life that are coming together and well, making a big happy picture of life.
Ha, if I don't do it when I'm young, when can I have the chance to do it again? :)
I finally understand what people mean by 'treasure your youth' (or something to that effect).
Gah! cm is understanding too many 'life-sayings' nowadays-
My brain is about to explode. I'm not used to being so happy/appreciative of life xD
The double blisters I got from Softball today aren't even really bothering me.
Seriously, a happy cm is scaring the usually cynical cm.
I wish my friends were all as happy as me-
Sounds stupid but I feel guilty if I seem happy and they come telling me about how studies/committments etc suck out their life.
Maybe they're happy but complain to me thus leading to my (incorrect) conclusions that they're unhappy xD
Bzzzt. I swear my brain just blew a fuse contemplating such things.
For the first time in a very long while, I'm happy with my life.
It feels weird but hey, I'm
truly happy.
I don't get to say that very often. And it feels nice.
Ha, I sound like I'm having a sugar rush or I'm on drugs.
It's just... nice to be able believe in life again :)
I wish he could tell me he was happy too-

Musings at 2.34am. Random thoughts about the Platinum Pair.
Niou is Niou, Yagyuu is Yagyuu.But Niou is also Yagyuu, and Yagyuu is also Niou.After a while, the line isn't just blurred. It disappears entirely.Syncro? Snort. This is what it means to become one in a Doubles pairing.When you become, no, when you are your partner, there can be no greater harmony.There can be no stronger enemy.The best thing is, they will never stop progressing.Because every day, every second, they find out more about each other, about themselves.Niou is the Trickster, Niou is the Gentleman, Yagyuu is the Gentleman, Yagyuu is the Trickster, Niou is Yagyuu, Yagyuu is Niou.They are Rikkai's Doubles One.This is the very reason why they are Doubles One.
SEAH/LIT VA group are dropping by my house this sunday!
For... SEAH VA. Hm. I
do like the fact that we're the same group.
Sometimes it takes very small things to make you feel loved in this world-D: So mushy. I'm missing something.
As always.
I miss him.
Worried. He didn't tell me what's wrong.
I can only wait.
I hate my supposed indifference.Ah, what can I say. I like cats. And egoistic bastards :)
They go together, in a way. Cats have egos. Big. Egos.
Atobe reminds me of a cat. Grimmjow IS a cat. In a way.
The brilliance of an ego D:
GAH!
And the snow fell-Cold, grey, but oddly comforting.It reminded me of him.'His hair's the same shade', I mused.His eyes too, they shone, brilliant as sapphires.He was brilliant.I sighed.We never did finish that match.

*DESPAIR*
Finally got info on the Tenimyu shows in Taiwan (YES THEY'RE BRINGING IT OVERSEAS FOR THE FIRST TIME GODDAMNIT!) And the Myu their performing is The Imperial Presence
Hyotei Gakuen Feat. Higa Chuu.
HYOTEI GAKUEN.
HYOTEI.ATOBE.What's more, after some serious drama about the actors playing Atobe, they FINALLY got Katou Kazuki back in the October shows! D: Even the original Oshitari.
Point being: Here's the run for the Taiwan shows: 10 Oct 2008 (Fri) ~ 12 Oct 2008 (Sun)
Obviously Kazuki and orig. Oshitari are going to perform in the Taiwan shows!!!
The first time I have a remote chance of even watching Tenimyu live ):
But the dates... -sigh-
Technically, there seems to be nothing (crucially important) on during school so if my family was crazy enough, they'd take me to watch (Promos are over- supposedly.)
But *GLOOMS* there's just.. no way.
I can hear my dreams going *poof*.
The fact that I actually
dreamed (as in at night) about actually watching a Myu 2 days ago doesn't help.
*SHOOTS*
At least the fangirls are happy, Kazuki's coming back :)

WARNING: HEAVY IMAGERY- lots of piccies! (being influenced by JY & YH D: what are shooters doing to me.. HEY I made a pun- shooters like to shoot. As in shooters (guns) like to shoot (guns) and shoot (photography). At least the 2 that I know xD)

Clouds above
Labrador Park- I like rainy days, today! :D

Sepia- reminds me of ye olde fisherman's wharf

Clouds with leaves- the negative version looks spooky

Lamp post- love the light's contrast with the dark clouds (though my positioning is horrid)

Sepia-ed

Lone lamp post- so poetic? xD

My current desktop wall :) again contrast, with better positioning

The holy light that shall save us all- though it came out kinda different from what I saw ):

Crashing waves! Not as dramatic but they'll do :)

NOT taking the couple! Like the redness above the rigs- industrialisation *sigh*

My dad says that island outcrop is part of Sentosa (my mum and I have no idea so we'll believe him) and then we launch into yet another debate: is there anyone staying in the bangalow?
East Coast Park- Sandcastle building competition/lessons going on. Those
extra people in the background were watching the instructor give lessons on how to build a nice sand
castle (not those lumps commoners dump out of their pails)

Sandcastle- Front view!

Sandcastle- Side view!

Footprints- like the damp sand left behind by the receding tide :D

Footprints again- my fav picture!

My shadow! My fav picture too! (NOT 'cos I'm in it)

A little rock's perspective. Yeah.

Colourful- er, didn't ask permission from the family whether I could shoot their slippers xD

My favourite ice-cream shop!! At
Central, the ice-cream's from Hokkaido *_* Soft vanilla ice-cream on a cone- YUM! Though it was too soft on Saturday so I had to eat it in a cup..

The other half of the Clinic restaurant at
Clarke Quay- the restaurant where you eat in hospital-like settings. They haven't opened yet.

Friday- Island Cremery! With ZX, YT and YJ! :D Didn't ask them to pose so alot of air between them.
Gah, the ice cream(s!!) is gonna make me fat!
I feel like a kid again.
Friday, July 4
YJ said something interesting (read: highly amusing) today :D
"Atobe probably
DOES own the road."
xD HA.
Played badminton for PE today! (: Okay it was more like 'attempted to hit shuttlecock with racket' rather than actually play...
But I can see why it's fun :D
Hm, wonder if i can
kidnap persuade anyone to play badminton with me one day...
NB: cm doesn't have rackets and sucks at it. Totally. Shammy (Mr. Sham) is amazed I can hit the shuttlecock with the metal part of the racket rather than the strings part.
It's
that bad.
Oh. I found LT4 today :D I found it before but couldn't remember where it was. HEH. We made up stories about people being tortured in there thus it's never used for lessons. Oh god the bane of overactive imaginations- zx says it's for band to use so the general student population doesn't use it. It's okay. The general student population has Ngee Ann Kongsi -rolls eyes-

Today was NJ's annual (seriously?) Career and Scholarship Talk.
Not being an avid fan of scholarships (I'm sorry if I offend any scholarship-maniacs in sullying what you've made into an art), I approached the event with my usual attitude:
Just Do It. (ahem, of course copyright laws apply.. Wouldn't want Nike to come suing D:)
Anyhows, I signed up for the MINDEF talk 'cos well, I was at least quite interested in military stuff (I have all of Matthew Reilly's books for god's sake). Turned out quite well considering I found the speaker (his name was Jasper xD think his rank was a major? Hmm..) inspiring and super, super funny.
And there were so many freebies :3 *goes into cheapskate mode* See, when the SAF, RSAF and Navy work together, the citizens gain :D
Nice things they gave us hee -glee-
Practised some throwing with YJ after school. Was fun using my black/red glove (: though it gave me a blister on my pinkie GR>
Not that, well, I'm such a pansy and well, it doesn't
hurt...
Our talk-session after that was cool xD whee- I like those kinda talks.
And it rained today.
Yeah, cm feels nice today.
'Cos freebies are always nice.
:D

YESH.
Finally done with my skin (number god-knows-what) Ahhh I feel accomplished :D Doing a new skin always forces me to think of new and different art directions (although they're usually quite minor *shoots*)
Never tried this format for a blog before (personally dislike having to scroll all the way down to read posts but oh well, the Hyotei boys are more important anyhows so they're picture has to be prominently displayed on top *looks above*). Never done the rectangle-shadow/colour-tone for a picture before (didn't have Paint.Net then HAHA) so yeah, I'm kinda pleased :)
Nya~ Orange is a nice colour!
