Waaiiitt...its dinnertime, but I couldn't help but check on my sweet lil senator's blog...
Re: 'Cafe Journal' link. I won't bother posting the url or linking to it since yes, it is pathetic! What the hell was he/she thinking?!

Better go, dinner. Adrian, just say the word and thus 'it' shall be crushed!
Babbling. Need food. Now. Ehehehe.

Oi, oi~

School has started, so that means less time for me to enlighten you viewers with my ramblings. >P I'll say about school though, and being in the happy little class of Year 11.

-Theory of Knowledge, a.k.a. Philosophy, is taught by a cynical teacher with a sinister smile. He also teaches Hospitality and Business Studies, and is the Year 11 homeroom teacher. My homeroom teacher last year too. He 'loves' us. Oh yes he does.
That last line is not meant to be taken literally. Note the emphasis on love, it's like 'best friend' becoming a 'beast friend'. I do like this teacher though. :D
-My classmates are as rambunctious as before. And it's still 3 girls and 19 guys in class. Oh yes I am serious, 3 GIRLS, 19 GUYS. All of them are my classmates from last year. New students are coming, but not till Monday. I wonder what the ratio of girls and guys will be then...
-I do like my school. Oh yes I do. Drats, that means karma will come college - my two or three years of college may be hell. Waah!
-Year 10 students are a teacher's worst nightmare. Last year, my class (being Year 10) was feared by many teachers. This year, its the new Year 10 batch. Hail!

Thats the highlights so far!

My brain is currently fried, I was too lazy over the holidays. Plus, mom got my sis and I out in the middle of the day from school for immigration issues (renewing our permit for living in Indonesia...forgot what that was called, Ki--something ^^;). It only took five minutes (Mom was surprised, she expected it to be longer...but heck, we werent sent back to school), but the forms and the mind-blowing stench of not-so-nice cigarette smoke does wonders for all our nerves. Government Departments, don't we all love them?

Yesterday afternoon, NJ came over to my house. He generously lent us his playstation and Tekken 3 disc for play - so for a good hour or so, we were all kicking around 3d characters, I drooled over Hwaorang, and got our thumbs sore from play. Dang, I do want a playstation!

Quotable quotes when playing Tekken 3:

When a girl gets knocked out, the final blow being between her legs:
Mica and I: Owww...

When a guy gets knocked out, the final blow at his 'family jewels' (Micaela has tendancy to do this):
Mica: Bwahahahaha! *gleeful*
NJ: *pained look* Will you stop doing that?!

On Jin vs. Hwaorang, NJ on the controls:
Me: *remembers Tin's blog entry, tries to stifle giggles* Ooohhh....Jin and Hwaorang...
NJ: What about them?
Mica: Yes, what about them?
Me: Mica, I'll tell you later after NJ goes. I don't think he'll want to hear it.
NJ: What is it? *prying* Wait, you didnt...you didn't, write anything on them, did you?
Me: Oh no.
NJ: That's good. *relieved*
Me: Someone beat me to it.
NJ: what...?
Me: It got quite explicit too. *snicker*
NJ: *nauseated look as he plays; wins* Don't say anything!
Me: *wide smile* Nu-uh, I won't, I won't...
*Next match: Hwaorang vs. Anna*
Me: *weird mental image, bursts out laughing* Hwaorang says, 'You slept with my husband you bitch!'
Mica and NJ: O_o?

So, Tin - I would like to read it out of sheer, morbid curiosity...but if its not on your hard drive anymore, thats okay. ^^ Thanks muchly, though!
If I do get ahold of that fic, I'll be sorely tempted to send it to NJ...hehehehehe...
Bless you Tin, deleting the fic saved someone's sanity, and my life. ^.~

'Schooldays, schooldays, here and golden rule days...aw dammit!' -- South Park

School starts tommorow. Today is officially my last day of vacation. I just finished cleaning out my schoolbags - old test papers, school papers, announcement, everything must go! So it went - right into my trash bin.

Ick, my Indonesian unit tests...burn, burn, burn! My Mom shouldnt see my test scores!

Siam Shade on the mp3 player, absolute madness at #pinoy_otaku...can you say, blissful Saturday evening?

Fujimiya lollipop snatching, yaoi, mecha, and pimping bishonen. What more can you ask? xD

Selene-san! I'll save you!
If someone can pay my airfare for Singapore though. Can you add a few extra dollars for Manila as well? That'll be muchly appreciated. >;D
Ne, a meet would be nice, Selene...and if you're here from late May onwards, very early June happens to be my birthday...hmn...:)

I know I haven't been in Indonesia long enough if I can only understand, but have only done less than several of the 'You might be Indonesian if...'.
While I don't smoke, I do think some cigarettes here do smell quite nice. ^.^ And yum, a Nasi Goreng breakfast!

I wonder if there's a 'You're probably Filipino if...' forwards somewhere out there, hmn...

Tekken yaoi, eh? *evil grin*
I'm willing to give that a shot. I'm very, very picky with yaoi and yuri (select Duo-Heero, select Kurama-Hiei...) or my preffered pairings are the...uhm, unthinkable (Kurama-Karasu, now! Heero-Wufei, now! Quatre-Duo, now! Draco Malfoy and Harry Potter, now!) - but I am quite intrigued by the Tekken fic Tin-san's ranting about.
I'll just skim the badly-written lemon part though. "Darling angel"? Uhuh. *sweatdrops*

Otherwise, I share the same sentiments with Tin on the fanfiction rant. I've become even more picky over fanfiction lately, and so easily turned off by bad characterization. I've lost count of the recent flood of Gundam Wing fanfics I've tried to read, but couldnt bring myself to for the unsettling relations and developments in the fics. Ergh.

I miss fanfiction, heck, writing in general.
And my muse left for the Bahamas again. *snarl*

Yahoo, for the love of god please don't screw up. I can't log into my pop3 mail, fine. But if I cant log in via the web - I may have to hit something. Hard.

Load, you silly thing...

"There is a problem accessing your mailbox, it may resolve itself in 10 minutes, please try again."

That is NOT when I want to check my mail! Dang ningen crap! *seethes*
I may be slow in answering my mail, but I have this thirst to read and check mail every so often. Heh.

Ne, Selene-san, Bon Voyage! ^^

A pita - its fun and yummy. :D

I'll never forget
Even if we're far I won't give up
I'll live on from today
You gave me kindness and courage
July when the love sprouted
The first kiss
Our little signs
the night we made up
I loved them all
Someday, we'll meet again
Neverending, today's my graduation
