Yay! another year...

Yo its been a long time, well its only been two months but damn has it been a long time. Here I am writing this on the arrival of the year 2017. Yay! sound the trumpets for it has come.The same experiences that I experienced when 2016 came.Let me tell you there really is nothing that different from each New year when you live a mundane life like mine. Sure there are a few good firework displays, but hey're even taking that away from me.So as I sound the trumpets of the arrival of another mundane year, think about how every New year is basically the same every year. For me at least.

Just sounded the horn and I am positively tired of how things have been going recently, so if I start to trail off I have that to blame, not that I don't trail off when I'm not tired. I sense that I'm nearing the 150 word mark, we must now part ways once again. Now one last sentence to end things off. Things are gonna change this year...

Wacky day, Im sensing copious amounts of cringe

The school announced a new kind of event, it would require that students dress in wacky outfits. I,m already reeling at the thought of what the student body would do. My guess is that the majority would skip school that day and the other would put extreme effort into their costumes. This is not an event for the easily cringed. Now if your wondering what I mean by cringe it is the sensation of feeling what an awkward person would be feeling, in lay man terms you feel the awkwardness of another. So to further my concerns for this event our class would be doing a dance number its theme being anime. The slumbering beast inside me is grinning ear to ear anticipating the sheer amount of cringe. Well lets i'll be making an update post as you need to have update posts. This will be on the 27 of October and the beast is still grinning

The eyes are one's way into the soul

September was also the month wherein we would be given the task of having a pretend job interview to prepare us for the upcoming future as adults. they have taught us techniques and trick into mastering it,like maintaining eye contact, but don't stare at them, body language is key, one single move might affect a majority of your results even if it was involuntary, but to truly master it you need to practice.These skills don't develop overnight. The schedule of the interview was posted at the community bulletin board and I was first. Skipping forward a few weeks, wearing my business attire I enter the office. I was greeted with a smiling interviewer and as the interview went on we discussed some things that she did not know about me. Finally we ended it with me calling the next interviewee. Never have I felt anticipation and nervousness. A few days later, we received the results for the interview. I was hired. 

Final Fantasy tactics finished

It at this very month(September) that i finished a game that has got me addicted to it. It was Final Fantasy Tactics for the PSP. It was a game renowned for its revolutionary gameplay, though there were earlier games like it, it was the one that sealed its genre on the gaming world. The tactical RPG. FFT was an arguably hard game, it was unforgiving to newbies like me at the time and was unbalanced. Countless times in the game you'll be pitted against monsters that do a plethora of status ailments and other would simply beat you to death. It was that kind of game, but if you strategize, every battle is basically a cake walk., hence "tactical" RPG. Once I beat it I felt as though I have finished a fifty year war. I recommend it as a pick up for people that plan to buy a PSP(are they even sold now).

I wish people would stop thinking of conventional means to get out of unconventional situations

They way the jail booth works was hat if you get caught you get sent to the booth. Once inside you have freedom, but constrained to a single room. you can bargain, ask for a means to leave, and most of all, beg for your friends to have you freed. In the room there was a door that had big windows that lets you have a conversation outside. You can either beg for you're friends to let you free or have somebody give you money to leave. To me the point of the jail booth was to boost people's abilities to bargain, that there are moments in life that you can't control, you just have to make the most of it. The booth even mimics these kinds of situations, there might be signals of it( someone saying who gets sent to the jail booth) but you might not notice it, you might be taken away against your will (catchers), take too some unfamiliar place physically or mentally( the jail booth) and a door is there but is guarded by someone or something you don't know(the warden), only by yourself you have nothing to fight with, but as others begin to join the same space your in, sharing the same predicament, now you team up and try to think of a way to free yourselves. The only game that wasn't  chance based was the tournament, where they have to collaborate to put on a play, where the best actors get free, just to maintain a sense of a competition. Even then none, NONE, collaborated with anyone. It was a chance to be free yet none took it. Rock paper scissors has elements of mind games, to win you need to anticipate what the opponent would use next. I think I'll be with the game booth next time.

Opportunities are there you just need to approach them...

We had an event wherein it was basically where a select few would be doing booths. There were food booths service booths, but there was one booth that seemingly had the second to the last, hardest thing to do. It was the Jail booth, I and a select few managed it. I think it wasn't even a jail booth per se it was more of a minigame where if you lose you pay money, we needed to generate money somehow, and due to that experience i have successfully learnt how the other grade levels react to being jailed. if there is one truth, nobody likes to act. This is how our jail booth worked.once you get caught you get sent to the booth. There are no time limits, you need to pay to leave, bu there are ways to earn your freedom without the use of under-handed means. I was even courteous enough to have them leave scratch  free if they beat me in rock papers scissors. The student have no sense of fun whatsoever. This is what I don't like from the student body, the fact that none of them have the capacity to try to leave without leaving the place looking like a bomb detonated. They could have bargained for their freedom, they could have asked if there was a way to leave, but none of them even tried.There was one pair that tried to leave, but they left the room in disarray.

The meaning of having a good time is singing while people now your voice is crap

This happened on our retreat, as you know we stayed two night there. These nights were particularly hard to sleep through, but I had fun... I think. You see, my roommates, they would sing some songs before going to bed. Not the kind that lulls people to sleep. It was songs that in the middle of sleep it would jerk your eyes open. I was victim of this for two nights in a row. majority of the male population in our class watches and guess what they would sing. I would be physically jerked from my peaceful slumber to their world of singing, and I joined a bit. As they say "When in Rome do as the Romans do". Their selections are and not limited to: anime theme songs, "wag ka nang umiyak?, and occasional tunes that men would easily identify. I'm never sleeping with these guys again, though singing might be fun...

Discipline is the key to maintaining one's integrity

So at the retreat house there was a swimming pool, and where there's a swimming pool there's bound to be swimmers. Now, here is the thing that seems to not leave my mind, about that pool, that saw a lot of blood. It was the last day, we were given free time to do anything we wanted: strolling around permitted,eating to you hearts content permitted, sleeping till you need to pack up  permitted, swimming permitted. Out of those activities mentioned the majority wanted to go swimming, even though were in a cold climate they braved the frigid air just to have a moment of fun. True frontiersmen. They had their fun, I on the other hand mainly wanted to have a nice stroll around the place, though there weren't many places to visit I found the aura of the place soothing, but every time I went near that forsaken pool I would hear loud screams and crashing waves. It ruined the walk. Now, aside from that, there was one thing my male classmates would say when they went near water. That their Byakugans* would activate. You know why, let me tell you a recipe for it okay? Water + White T-Shirt + Female= Byakugan. This is why I went walking instead of going with them. I forbid myself from using the Byakugan.

Byakugan= a technique used to see beyond something. e.g clothes.

You don't realise it but the pain you've felt in the past is no longer here

On the first week of the month, I encountered a annoying parasite. I contracted Amoebiasis. It's a intestinal parasite and I spent at least 1/3 of that week in the bathroom. It wasn't pleasant and it most certainly wasn't a good experience,but it stuck to me, the pain that is. Every time I go to the bathroom, I'm reminded of my silent pleas of help, while my rectal region is in a state of disarray. Every time I enter, I hear the echoes of silent screams and groans of displeasure. Now I'm better, I can't seem to get it out of my mind the pain of letting something go... feels bad man.

Life gives you a second chance if you're willing

So, we reached our destination, this is a continuation from the last post,I managed to survive the first day and slept soundly the first night. I survived the second day, but the second night got me. So at the place we were staying at it has these ginormous spiders, some were even in arms length. What got me that night was that out of our window was the largest we've ever seen at the place. It was positively enormous, its size was about a grown man's palm. The plan they thought of of catching it( my roommates at the time) was to catch it before it catches you, at the time it was the best plan. Don't question it. So "S" was the one tasked to catch it they said if he managed to catch it it would be his, but sadly "S" didn't have enough confidence in himself and one thing led to another, the spider went up its web into the nearby tree. We were decimated, our prey escaped. But I believed in miracles and the spider went back down! We were excited, the heavens have given us a second chance. "S" caught it. If you're wondering what made this scenario so enjoyable was that we were trying to fit in a 3 by 5 feet window, bear in mind that there were 5 people trying to look out the window, we didn't just looked out the window almost half of our torso's were out. imagine walking by and seeing 5 boys looking out of the window torso deep.

Sitting still in one position is hard to do

It was the morning of our retreat day, well it was fairly morning, since we departed late, i think we were supposed to depart at 6 sharp, but ended up departing 7, due to someone, not attending yet the other day claimed she was going. The vehicle we were riding on was a white van, don't let the imagination run wild, it was a plain van. The class was divided into three for we had only three vans. I was put with the sleepy heads and the one guy with the most the most energy. So while on the trip, it would have been dead silent if it weren't for this guy, enter "L" loud mouth extraordinaire. His act include obnoxious voices, invasion of personal space, and an attitude that can't seem to pick between serious or jolly. He sat beside me. So imagine this picture, a small boy sitting straight in the corner of a moving van with a medium? sized clown in glasses has his arm around the boy and making seductive faces. that was me, the small boy. I did not get sleep for the duration of the ride. To put into perspective how badly I wanted to sleep. I woke up at 5 O'clock in the morning, forced myself to eat and clean myself to go to to school to go to the retreat home which was a 3 hour drive. For those 3 hours I could have slept on, i was sitting straight and constantly being watched by "L". My body got there safe, but I think part of died while on that ride. I'm never getting on the same van, no, the same vehicle with him. This was not exactly the best part, but to me the best parts are things that move the soul, in this case, it didn't just move it it tore it off and flung it off the van I was riding.

Totally did not forget this existed

Hey, how it going? I haven't done an entry for a while now and this weeks the deadline. I messed up. So to cover the lack of any progress this month I will be sharing the best moments the whole month of September has to offer. Now I know I still have not gone and made the reflections of August but I'm in a dire situation right now. So this is how its gonna plan out. Each entry is gonna be one story, in those stories ill be narrating it like a boss and telling what happened, and I'm totally not gonna lie about stuff *wink. So i guess the amount of entries I still need to do are about 10+ so, I hereby promise that I will tell 9 different stories. The next entry will be all about how painful the ride was to our retreat destination. See you.

Declaration of Fun

Through that experience I have concluded that R-ow can make good personalities from already existing personalities. i guess he excels in making existing characters act lifelike in places other that anime(the same can't be said with his drawing though). Nevertheless I enjoyed with I'm being the storyteller, next time I think I'll be the storyteller next time and I've already have a story in mind, I just have to get him to finish the Re:Zero one. In terms of progress I think were nearing the halfway point. If you're reading this R-ow, you'll be embarking on a grand adventure of hunters, monsters and a hell of a lot of misunderstandings. It will be a story about an aspiring monster hunter and his struggles of finding someone to accompany him in this monster-infested world. I hope to continue this as it brings life to this dull one, let us make more misunderstandings and a whole lot more fun.

We started RP (roleplay) Re:Zero part 2

I'll now be telling the choices I made, if you're interested in what the hell I'm talking about, I suggest you watch the anime or read the light novel, its a damn good anime and I think you can watch it on anime streaming sites. So I started off in a dungeon room complete with all the torturing apparatus that a torturer needs. So I get beaten up, he leaves the room and I manage to unshackle myself from the chains preventing my escape. I hide behind the door and wait for him to return.  He returns and I slide outside and lock him inside with a bar of wood. i was now barraged by the stench of dead bodies shackled and chained on the floor. I go outside to see two paths before me, I try out the two path,but both lead to death. So I wondered what was the correct path so I asked the torturer in the other room. Surprisingly enough he answered that there was a door beneath one of the bodies so I rummaged through the bodies and a found an odd looking door. I grabbed the handle and it whisked me away into a new world...

We started to RP(roleplay) Re:Zero part 1

So recently me and a close friend of mine started watching a certain popular anime called Re: Zero Hakimeru Isekai Seikatsu. It's an anime. So with our boredom from waiting to see the next episodes, we started formulating up off storytelling about how we'd do in the main characters positions. This went on for a few night, sometimes we'd lose ourselves only to see that its late at night. It was fun and he made some pretty fun situations, but where he shone most was giving the characters their personalities. He would make Rem, the so called "best waifu", have a very creepy vibe to her, though that creepiness was outshone by her flawed logic. Let me give an example. While I was sleeping I heard a noise come from the corner of the room, instinctively, i jumped up from the shock only to see the blue-haired maid covering her eyes. I asked what the hell she was doing there and was she staring at me while I sleep. So in a sarcastic tone I  said that I can see her, and her response was and I quote, "You can't see me if I can't see you". We were hysterical when it came to her stalking. once she hid beside a tree, not behind it just beside it. uttering the same line we went mad about.

Houdini frog

I might have told this before, but its in line with what I've been posting so, deal with it. When I was a small boy, every night before dinner we would be visited by a small frog on the side of our sink. At first i paid no heed, it was just a frog after all, but once realisation kicked in that a frog visits us every night is boggling. I have a few theories as to how it gets there. 

1. it goes down the drain and resurfaces every dinner time for the duration of our staying there.
2. it was a magical frog that grants luck and prosperity to those who eat in its presence, simply a magic frog

This has just popped into my mind when I remembered our old home, the distinct feature this frog had was that of a evergreen skin and blood red eyes. Frighteningly enough I remembered we had a statue or a figurine of a frog with evergreen skin and blood red eyes... Freaky.

Cat encounters

This has been going on for some time now, but i didn't see it as much,but there are a ton of cats here. I liking cats down mean them any harm though the other residents don't also, but there has been an increase in cats recently. There are: gray one, black ones , tabbies, and an occasional black orange white patterned one. There were even kittens, bloody kittens , they were cute as all hell. So I guess you can say that its a new addition to the ecosystem. I guess? They don't cause any harm as of now, but I've heard stories from japan that cats have been deemed an invasive species in a certain island. I just searched it and it seems it's Tashirojima. an island that revers cats as lucky charms. tourist don't mind if their stampeded by a glaring of cats( I looked it up, a glaring is a collective term for a multitude of cats). Cats also spread diseases right? So good luck to the tourist that goes there. Back to the cats here though, there is one special cat that's close to my heart and that is a tabby cat that rests at the roof of our old house. I've decided as of now that that cat will be named "Rooftop", because he rests on the roof.

Swarm encounter, dragonflies

There was once a time when i would hear buzzing noises outside of my window. I am deeply paranoid about buzzing, but when I went to investigate it was a gigantic dragonfly. It was huge, it was large enough to cover two fingers(lengthwise).  I've never heard of  dragonflies migrating, and I willing to make a bet that its true. Yesterday after writing the Glossy starling encounter, I went up to our rooftop again and saw a swarm of dragonflies, though that was not my goal as I went up to search for the starlings. I think some of the dragonflies had a golden tint to them. So yes it seems another species has wandered its way into the vicinity. I'll keep writing about these encounters because its cheap ways of getting stuff written down.

Glossy Starling

Recently while I was retrieving clothes from our rooftop, I saw some unfamiliar birds. It had black feathers and crimson eyes, I looked it up and I guess its an Asian Glossy Starling. I have no idea how it got here, but there's been an increase in animals appearing near here. First there was a monitor lizard(I consulted my classmate about it and this was what he said), and now starlings? I know we have luscious flora, but to think it would attract fauna also. I will be observing the tree-lines more often from now on and see if there are more "new" birds. I would like to catalog it but I'm to lazy to do so, I might just make these the list, so I'll just use the names of the birds as the titles. I am heading out now to see if there are any new ones that wander off into the vicinity.

I've nonstop been reading manga for the past 4 days

Time flies when you're having fun, but I did not expect it to fly this far. I think it has been weeks since my last post so I guess I'll be going for a goal of  5 today. Back to me reading manga. I was so into reading it that I've forgotten that other things exist, I haven't forgotten the essentials like bathing and eating, but it seems I forgotten about school and how good the wind feels. The manga I've read recently were all ongoing titles, ex. Tate no Yuusha and Dungeon( though the anime is released i just wanted to catch up with the story). Manga like Tate no Yuusha really got me craving for more, since the story is about a falsely accused hero. You could say I was having fun from him being deceived all the time. Something about him being wronged and rising above hardships really gets the fire burning.

I now know what I got from my mother

I've always seen myself to have inherited my fathers resourcefulness, Just yesterday, we were having dinner all was fine and dandy until she starts complaining about how we eat, how we do stuff, how we generally live. She nags, most of the time. You don't see this or maybe you have on occasions I would begin mumbling over stuff after I talk to someone. So I have my fathers resourcefulness and my mothers nagging capabilities. I can name some examples for both: Once when I was a child, we would often make castles out of pillows and blankets, I would always have the better castle, as for my mom's I would often mumble stuff under my breath whenever I speak to someone I have some amount of hatred towards( which is almost everyone). This is the first time i saw something inherited from my mom or maybe i'm just really not good at looking for characteristics.

I burned out, burned out bigtime

hell, it is currently day 4 of the suspension of classes(including Sat and Sun) I thought it would've been nice to have a few days off, but sadly that is not the case this time. I'm at the point where I've run out of stuff to do. You would say I should read a book or get in touch with the family. I can't do that because a I do that almost everyday, its tiring. My eyes won't stay open for long, even if I sleep and I always feel this burning sensation behind my neck. It maybe sickness, but I'm blaming it all on the suspension. I just want to go to school now, very hypocritical of e considering once I get back I'll be beggin' for another suspension of classes. I was hoping this would be fun, but it wasn't at all. All I did was study for the exams and lazed around. Period. That's it. For sanity's sake just stop with the suspensions, I can't live like this.

July week 3 Reflection

To be perfectly honest I don't remember what happened  this week. I think we were practicing like crazy for our cultural dance and were making mats from new papers this week. The practices I remember, for the most part I think, that the practices were "divided". Our class had the majority of students in the student council. They were getting a bit fed up with them not practicing as well. Now this is where I had a good laugh about. I've never seen a better representation of hypocrisy. So the student council members left and she was fine with it at firs, but when time passed she slowly got fed up. She would bad-mouth the SC members for not practicing, but she wasn't practicing it either. I was delighted, more than receiving a gift, it felt divine. Also when she thought she was losing the grip of the class(not that she had that much of a grip on us), she would resort to scare tactics, pretending to get angry and sometimes would say  "All you have to do is move your hands, is that so hard to do". Good thing I have a good control on my face or else I would have been grinning like an idiot when she said that. After that whole ordeal, we finished practicing, it went well we made some progress(considering we have a hypocrite as a leader). That concludes my reflection on week 3, if you're wondering what happened with the mat making it was boring. You'll probably not want to hear it

Arrows blocked out the sun

Today I experienced one of the heaviest rainfalls of my life, this is the story of how "Arrows blocked out the sun". It was a normal morning i wok up, to the sound of rain on rooftops. I got up and proceeded to have breakfast, it was champorado, made from cocoa and rice. I finished it without delay, but what bothered me was that the tree branches outside were scattered across the pavement. Paying no heed to my desire to make war with rain, because it tore a few branches out, I made my way back upstairs to brush my teeth. After brushing I turned on the computer and started browsing the internet, I even watched a few anime.  All was fine, I was content with what was happening at the time, but when I realized that it was noon and no ray of light shone on our surroundings,I was shocked. It was high noon and no light would shine down. outside was like early morning, when the sun is just about to rise, after being shocked, i said "Eh, it's just rain blocking out the sun (that's how I made the title).

July Week 2 Reflection part 2

In the last entry I talked about the Puppet show and our long tests,this entry will be all about, chances and first impressions. Also, in this week we were told there would be a Folk dance competition, I wasn't particularly stoked about the idea, but to hell with it, it'll be the source of my wanting to go to school. I just thought of it that it is here that my first impressions would solidify into. So I went with the abled dancer, that had the funny side. You the type of guy anyone can approach. Sadly I think that that conflicts with my other impressions, but that's beside the point. What matter was that I was paired with this small girl. She had thick eyebrows and a knack for making people think she was calm-minded. i thought so at least. When I first saw her in High school, i thought that she must be calm as all hell. I thought she was the type to accept everything with a straight face and not lose face in the times of conflict. I admired for that was what I aspired to be, most of them when I said I had an admiration for her, they thought it was out of love. Sadly they were mistaken, and so was I. You over the course of our practice I thought, "Wow I get to be partners with her, maybe some of that calm mumbo jumbo would rub off on me". It never did. She would some times complain that it was hot as hell, actually it was, but I expected her to accept the fact that it was hot, and that would be it. Of course maybe that was her sign of wanting to break the ice. Instinctively I said,"Yeah, it is". And that might be that last time I talk with her, at least for a while. You see the class can be divided to sections and sub sections, though that's another entry in of itself. The day of the performance is in August or "Buwan ng Wika or Month of the Language", mainly Tagalog. I guess we made quite a leap in progress from where we started and I would say we need only polish it more. That concludes Week 2. Hope to have new experiences.

July Week 2 Reflection part 1

The second week of July started and with it new challenges. Events are spreading left, right and center. This was the week where we will be put to the test, literally. this was the quarterly long test of our school. Needless to say I believe I passed all my subjects, not to brag but I am kind of easy to teach. After that was done, we set out to do the other we were tasked with, namely a puppet show. Everything was fine up until I was tasked with the voices. Teaching a person to talk is quite easy in its own way. What's hard is teaching a person to talk in in another. I had faith in them as they volunteered to voice a puppet, was I disappointed. They did show interest in the matter,but most of the time, they wouldn't focus on it. Ok I can deal whit that, it's fine. I'll just say that when go time you better do your best, and they delivered, though not what I was expecting, but they delivered. So now the voicing was done, It was time to direct the whole thing so that it looks remotely well-made. I had to direct it with my whole soul, one or two would help me, but ultimately I gave up and made backgrounds instead. It was a dark time for me, as that was the first time this year I heated to the max. Furious, I was. That was only half of what happened that week, I'll tell the next part in the next entry. 

Posing Xtreme!

Recently I have gotten the addiction of posing. Yes. Posing. Not the typical "magazine type of posing. I do the Xpressive type of posing( I added the "X"for EXTREME). It is where you channel your emotions and in an instant strike a pose. I picked this upon Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, it influences my daily life now. In completely random instances I would just break into a pose, for example, I was walking in our house I chanced upon a mirror what was my first response, posing. The problem does not seem to arise when i'm at school or at public places. Still this is still a good way to burn stress. I find myself being relieved of it, though it may differ from person to person. Xtreme posing,helps in making me less stressed day after day. I will  support anyone that has the bravado to do it in public.

July Week 1 Reflection

Thus started the month of July or what we call it as Nutrition Month. Were you are supposed to eat healthy stuff and grow real strong! Only a few follow it. My mother and I don't have time to prepare stuff like this everyday. I mean in a week you'll have a different lunch per day. that might sound dandy, but you'll be the one cooking for it. They do sell the food for the day at the canteen, but I don't have money to spend on that stuff so I ditched it and just brought what was the norm. I like to think that once you get one mark you go for all the marks. Meaning once you started, see it to the end. That would be all that happened on that week. (to be honest some were incredibly easy, but as stated above. If I get one, i need to get all of them)

June Week 3 Reflection

This was the last week of June and I forgot most of it. It must have really been a lazy week. I cannot recall a single thing that happened. I guess I started Jojo's Bizarre Adventure? Well I have a asked a semi-reliable informant and he said that he can't recall anything either. Well since I'm here I might as well rant about something. For the past 2 years, none of them matured. This might sound condescending or prideful of me, but come on! It's plain as day. You respect your elders, you treat them nice. You respect a teacher for he/she is toiling in work so you can have a bright future. What part of what I just said did they not pickup? To be fair I didn't say anything, but wasn't it the one value that was pounded into us as a child. Was I the only one? What?! I can think of one solution to this, and that is to not think about. No matter what situation I imagine, I can only think of one ending. They'll forget it happened and it'll revert back  to what is was at the beginning of the argument.

June Week 2 Reflection

This is the part of the school-year that establishes the bonds one has with his/her fellow students.I have personally gone with the equality route. I'm equally indifferent as to what they think of me.if you don't let me give a rundown of what I am. I, a male highschool student, is either extremely nice to you, or passive-aggressive to the extremes. I prefer to be alone than with company and think I get job done while alone best. You could say this is gonna be a hell of a year when I get partnered with, overly-quit types or rowdy bunches of unhindered amounts of joyous youths. This particular week was the easiest by far.Everything was in order(to an extent) and we did not get into trouble. Oh wait, there was that thing with *Ahem* and them that might be of some relevance,bu I'm guessing you already now this.*cough* cant accept what givens to them*cough*. I established good bonds with everyone and would most-likely stay out of radar.

June Week 1 Reflection!

Everything was all fine and dandy until the dreaded feeling that school was about to start again. I could feel anxiety flowing in. What monumental tragedy awaits in this school-year of mine. Nevertheless I puled through all the hardships of anticipating school. All the sleepless nights of wondering what persona to use at school what sort of lessons I will have learned, what incredibly cringeworthy dumb-crap I'll be doing. So school started to my surprise we were joined. Typically grades would be separated to sections. Ether an A or a B. The subject is a bit touchy, but to hell with it. This is my blog I'll say whatever the hell I want.(that's the "DETERMINATION" talking pay no heed). As I was saying, I was shocked, I've never had this situation before. Everytime we merged it would either leave someone crying or someone incredibly pissed off. I was the neutral faction,I acted dumb as all hell to win their trust and not notice me. I've even shut down all connections with them at some point I don't remember all clearly to be exact. So the week rolled on, I was hoping there would be a huge, gaping hole in the middle of everyone, but it seems it's just a crack on the floor. Well there is still other moments to enlarge said crack. That mostly brightens up my day. So the week ended with a lack luster end and a exceedingly pile of assignments.

Brimming with the confidence and determination of Gods

Hello, after watching some deep anime, I've gained really a jump start in my, I guess you could say my psyche. I Fell like I could speak in front of a crowd of pack of wild fans in a lack luster concert of their favorite band. For this to happen I would either I saw someone or something that would make me go full force into going the extra mile, or a life changing thing has affected me in some minuscule way that would unleash this gush of determination and confidence for this time I have watched RE:Zero. If you're wondering what the hell that is is that it basically follows the life of Natsuki Subaru, a self-proclaimed "Hikikimori"(Shut-in), who is wisped away into an unknown world where every-time he dies he must go back that day and relive it like it was his first time there. For some reason that gets my gears going, or it maybe that video of someone realizing to their loneliness after just waking up, either of the two must have jump started something. So for the next couple of entries I will be relaying my experience from the past month. Hope you enjoy!

Remake Vs Remastered

Hello! I was just playing some FF4 and I remembered that there was a PSP remaster for it. So I looked into it and found that (I watched some gameplay videos) It was basically the same, but with better graphics. So i wondered then why? Why would you distribute the same game but the only thing that changed was the graphic, well maybe some bugs and it does look like it runs smoother, though it might just be because of the PSP's  capabilities. While on the topic. I decided to look into what is the difference between a remake and a remaster. To my understanding is that a Remake is when a game is ported to another platform or it gets a new snazzy look. Whereas a remaster is when it basically improves upon the game. Sothat mean sthe FF4 on PSPis a remake. Don't take anything I said here as a 100% truthful source.

Tornado?

Yesterday, my parents said that there was a tornado, in our backyard. I'm not one to to deny that from happening, but wouldn't it do more damage than a few branches torn off? Well I guess it could be that it was just a really strong gust of wind. When I was a kid I did see a whirlwind, though it was small, it picked up dirt and leaves on the ground. The "tornado" did a number on the trees though, but it did light up the place. It wrecked a few branches and let the sunshine through. I have heard from my parents, that my aunt's roof was nearly torn off. I don't know how, but I think it may just be an exaggeration. To tear a roof apart, it must be enough to tear branches... I think it must have actually happened. The tree branches, the "tornado", the almost torn off roof,the unnatural amount of rain afterwards. I need to inquire more about it.

Cloudy weather

lately, the amount of clouds appearing above have increased and rain seems to be the default weather when it comes to the afternoons. Must be the effect of the South-East Monsoon. Lately the cold started to kick in also, must be the work of a monsoon approaching. I don't like weather like this, Everything appears dreary, and dull. I prefer a blue,cloudless sky. Something about a wide expanse of blue really makes me feel light. That also happens when I look at the ocean. I remember the last time we had weather of this kind was last year. Where almost all of the Philippines was drenched in rain water. I guess in the coming months we'll be receiving days of no classes, which might sound nice, is generally not.I just assures that there will be make up classes on Saturdays. I'd rather have a pleasant Saturday, than a rain drenched school day.

Water slides(not the one you're thinking about) and Overtaking(not the one you're thinking of either)

Yesterday I was planning to return home from my classmates house, but before I could pack my things it suddenly started raining. You could imagine my disappointment, I ended up borrowing an umbrella. As I was on my journey towards home. I encountered, the harshest environment I have walked on. Everything was slippery and at the end of the slippery slopes was a pool of water. It didn't help for the fact I was wearing school shoes at the time. I almost slipped into one at one point. Never going out in the rain again if that is what awaits me. Luckily that was in the middle of the rain, it was at that point where there were only droplets left instead of the metaphorically buckets of water raining down the heavens.  Also when I was nearing the middle point of my journey, every slow student suddenly popped out of nowhere. They were walking like snails, and in groups. I ,personally think i walk more hastily than the normal person, so walking behind them was a pain. To overcome the obstacle that was laid before me I did what any fast paced walker would do at the side of the road. I walked on the road to overtake them. The funny part is I heard them laughing behind me, either I'm paranoid as high hell. I made it safe and sound back home, though one thing has stuck to me on that journey. Never walk in the rain while students are out.

sTREEt lamps

Recently my mother is having negative remarks on the power bill, so she decides to limit our use of electricity. It did cut down the bills, but what made me think of was. How do we make the whole area around our house, energy efficient. What I was thinking was lanterns. They are easy to use,only requiring candles and a match every night, provides a good aesthetic view to the place, though the problem is that everything might catch on fire. We live in a dense, or at least dense enough patch of trees. What I also thought about was that we make the trees themselves glow. I have heard of a vaccine to make trees glow, let me look it up for a sec... Yes they are glowing plants,yes you heard me glowing. plants. Why in God's good world are we not funding this? It's literally a seed. a seed! That could one day replace street lamps and provide a solution to this damnable temperature. Ok I have made in to a life mission of mine, I swear on this day that I will make that plant grow in this place of ours.

Puppet, puppets

This upcoming week our class will be holding a puppet show. The class was divided into groups of three to speed up the process. There was the Story Division, The Voice Division, and the Production Crew. I was appointed head of the Voice Division. I gathered volunteers, as I will not force anyone who does not want to comply. I managed to get a group of 7 or 8. Yesterday, we decided to do our first script reading session, though they showed motivation, at least a tiny bit. I was sure that the voices that volunteered were assigned to the best fitting role, though I wished I got more spirited volunteers. Nevertheless, we continued on, though having a few minor mishaps. We completed the script, the story was a bit rushed in my opinion. Now I think the story is being revised or getting a rewrite to fully flesh out the story. Here is what I think what happened, they wrote the first draft and printed the first draft. Big no-no. To fully flesh out the story one must rewrite until it fits what you imagine it to be. "A sword must be forged over and over to be truly called one". I made that up, don't quote me on that.

Magical oil

Last night i got myself a massage, as my right arm aches when I stretch it. After a good nights rest, I find my skin, smooth as a baby's bum. If you don't know I have the driest skin. So having smooth skin that does not leave marks on my body, that's pretty awesome. At that moment I remembered that some people used to use oil after a bath, I don't know who, but I distinctly remember someone pouring oil on their skin. Actually while we're on the topic, I think it was Elizabeth Báthory, or more known as the blood countess, for bathing in the blood of virgins. I don't know why, but it was the dark ages, almost anyone knew she was losing it. She died in a cell, where she told the guard stationed her hands were cold. Next morning she was found dead, her body is currently missing. 

Cool exterior, even hotter interior

Hello ... ok I won't even bother with the intro let me tell you straight I hate the cold. Why? Well for many reasons. One of those reasons is My body aches from the cold,one time it was cold enough that my big toe started aching. Second, it stretches my clothes out, why you ask? well there's one simple answer I put my arms in them to shield them from getting cold. now you're wondering,but you could just get away from the source your not tied there right? This is probably my own pride making me sit there, but hell will freeze over before I willingly sit in another student's chair. And the last reason I hate it is that everyone in my class has probably the same insulation a whale has. They can withstand a fan blowing wind at them at constants and the air conditioner set to 16 degrees. 16  although refreshing degrees and to top it off  I'm smack dab in the center of the fan, it is at least a foot away from my chair. You could imagine the freezing winds I have to survive through 5-6 hours fro five days. This is an absolute outrage! I cannot cope with the environment I'm in I'm not the type to calmly take everything as if nothing happened. I might look to have a cool exterior, but inside that is a small flame, but when fed you better find some water as I'll burn everything to the ground.

Knowledge nugget 1

I shall now impart some of the knowledge and trivia, I have accumulated over the past week. Though most of it is Biology,let's begin! 

Numero uno is that the difference between alligators and crocodiles are their mouths. Now I want you to picture these two side by side. Surely you would imagine a croc to be big and large, and jaws wide enough to tear meat from any prey, and  an alligator thin and spindly, with a narrow jaw. sadly, it's the other way around. you see Alligators have the bigger jaw while crocs have the longer one. 

This bomb hit me hard, So while we were on topic of animals, he then proceeded to ask me about hedgehogs and scorpions. The answer to the question was pretty simple considering the circumstances. If a scorpion would sting a hedgehog who would die first.

 Having at least a smidgen of common sense I went with the scorpion. I was right. As you may know, hedgehogs are 40%ish immune to poison or at least is resistant to it. By the time the poison to spread to the hedgehog the scorpion would have been digested by then, also there's no guarantee that the hedgehog would be poisoned at all, what a waste of good poison.

Limit point!

        Hello,I will now proceed to tell a story about how I was one the edge of fainting. Most people would fear fainting, I am one of those people, tough there was something that was hindering that fear. I felt exhilarated, I felt alive. I have a saying that the peak of feeling alive is when you're near you're limit. My breathe was heavy and my eyes began playing tricks on me, Everything was starting to go out sync with my brain. I laid down on the ground, grasping my sweat-drenched face. I'll tell you what I did, I smiled, why? Well it's quite simple really. 

          In anime and in shows particularly, A character must not show weakness, and true courage is smiling in the face of fear. I kid you not, my face was fixed, I could not change it. I seriously could not, I swear on my honor( not that I have any). Those moments would stick with me throughout my life. To strengthen the memory the orange sun shone at my face. Definitely one of the best memories I will remember.

In hindsight "Temp. title" probably wasn't a good idea

         If you've read my past post I explicitly don't like half-assing anymore. "Temp. title" most likely says the opposite, well since it's there for all eternity, I'll just roll with it. Then again, It might provide some sort of mystery to the blog. I realize that's basically click-bait ,but then again, when have blogs not used click-bait. 

          If "temp title" ain't a good one, what is a good title for this blog. Since I'm going full force into this maybe, "Full Force F**-", No. NO! I'll probably get in trouble for that. Well since I can't think of any "appropriate" titles that suits this blog maybe "Temp. title", might've been the best choice. Since this is a Experience blog, I'll be sharing life experience, not that I've lived to experience everything.

          Next time, I'll be sharing my experience of tiring myself to the brink of exhaustion. "You'll always feel more alive when closer to death".

Here we go again.

          Well hello there, fancy seeing you here. You might be wondering why I'm back; Yes, yes settle down ladies(if there are any I highly doubt it). I'm here because I need to do this to pass my grade level. Now I know what you're thinking, "This'll be the same as that other lame blog that he made". Well let me tell you a little story

     Once upon a time, I suddenly came to the realization that everything is not permanent and I'm slowly decaying, body and soul, so I thought I wouldn't half-ass anymore. THE END.

       Okay, now that's out of the way, I welcome you to my domain where I post full assed content, most likely everyday. I just realized I'm dooming myself to work 24/7, at least now I'm going to put some variety into the mix. Instead of just some stories, theories that have no scientific back-up, and occasional rants. I'm putting up... Actually all of this is improvised and I'm just typing what my fingers type, so... How about I rarely post some juicy content of what happens in the room. Now to the person that might be the only one reading this, and it's very likely that he IS the only person reading this. This blog has inspired me to pursue a dream of putting content on the web, be it videos, blogs, umm I don't know maybe criticism. Maybe. To summarize everything that I have written on this post alone it would be

• I'm happy to write again.
• I'll gladly go the extra inch to achieve mediocrity.
• I'm still not funny am I? Huh.
• I might be able to persuade my classmates in giving their blog addresses
• I'm not half assing anything anymore.

     One last thing, it still bugs me that I favor Verdana over Arial, I mean Arial is basically the universal font(I can find evidence to back this up so... tough), but Verdana is just so clean and pleasing to the eye for me. It,to me, looks so much better than Arial. Here a test, see which is more pleasing to the eye.
