Me sleepy, cant stay awake long, but i'll try to sum up what happened today...
I woke up early, went into the city, met EB, Josh and Finn came..
We went to Stages time out, I put $2 into a truck driving arcade game, and just as I was about to start, I was told that we had to go now if we wanted to catch the bus >_<
That's $2 down the drain........I wonder if anyone made use of my coin? O_o
Bus was super late, by about 45min or something >_<
Chris got on the same bus as us, quite funny really ^_^;
blablabla, finally got to Howick, had a long walk though from the bus stop and it was already 12pm >_<
Arrived at Edwyn's place at about 12:30pm, Matt was the only person already there though...
Watched some stuff including 'Once upon a time in china' (a little boring for my tastes), 'Operation scorpio' (a lot more entertaining, but not that great), 'The Killer' (awesome! a little predictable, but very good nonetheless).
We also saw some 'Sam and Max', which was good, funny, but not on the same level as the Tick or anything.
And Edwyn showed us the movie scenes from Citizen Kabuto or whatever the name of the game is called...
Was completely different from what I expected it to be like, very very funny and entertaining, and I managed to point out a number of voice actors, weehee ^_^
After 'Operation Scorpio' we headed over to Botany downs (???? correct me if i'm wrong..???) where we wandered around looking for food and stoping off in the EB (you have to know what that is, right?) and the Blockbuster video, where I saw many temoting videos...
I was in a very kicking, kung fu mood after watching Operation Scorpio, just wish I was better at it ^_^
Still one to play round...
Though Finn should really watch out, prancing around and banging into some poor poor woman outside the nacho's place is just bad ^_^ hehe
We didnt leave Edwyn's till about 12:25am or something O_o
and I didnt get back home till 1:15am or so O_o
Thankfully my brother was still awake so he could let me in...
I dont fancy the idea of spending the night outside too much.....
Though it could be quite interesting....the sky was clear and the stars were pretty, I wouldnt mind staying outside abit longer to look at them.
I guess I really need to get a key cut for me so I can get in when I need to, having to depend on my mum or brother is kinda crap.
brrr, hungry >_<

NP: Regurgitator - Fat Cop
Cant write for long, I've gotta get up early to meet EB, Josh and maybe Finn in the city..
We'll catch teh bus to Edwyn's in Howick.
My computer has been very very good these last few days, it hasnt crashed, thats bloody amazing actually ^_^
I hope it keeps it up.
Finished reading all the Blade of the Immortal I borrowed of Josh , It's very very good.
Magatsu is truely an awesome character.....I will need to find some good pics of him and put them on my page ^_^
My brother's friend in america has to draw a poster and t-shirt design for this convention happening soon (for Anime, He-man, that kind of stuff), and anyway she sent my brother a scan of the concept design for the poster and shirt.
The poster has Tallgeese in the middle surrounded by characters like Vegeta, Zechs and a few from He-man.
And wow! She's very good, I already knew that, but her Tallgeese and Vegeta are very well done.
Hmm....I wish I was more tired, cause otherwise I'm going to find it hard to get to sleep...
I dont exactly want to be awake till 3am or something....
leaving with only 4 or so hours of sleep, thats bad.
Anyway, probably should shut down the computer and turn off the light now, Ja Na
Fergus / 01:24 a.m. / Saturday, June 30, 2001
Singing makes me yawn too much ^o^;
Which is bad, cause i'm a very singy person.
NP: Bobby Brown - On our own (Ghostbusters II theme)
*happy sigh* yay! Things have been sorted between Clara and I, thats one helluva big relief!
So yay! It was great talking to you again, Clara-chan! XD XD XD (hahaha, my impersonation of Clara, done quite well in my opnion, even though it's really only the XD's that make it similar ^_^;;;)
I have a problem with writing a fair amount, I can't seem to expand things into long long paragraph's like others can, I'm not too sure why..
Just lazy, lack of interest?
It's probably just I dont know how to.
Maybe it's 'cause I dont do jack each day.
I suppose that's about right, I mean, if I did more, I would have more to write about.
So many things are screaming at me to get a job.
And I know I should, it's just.....I dunno.....
it kinda doesnt feel right at the moment ....? O_o
Maybe it is, wah!
I have no idea...
I guess I should just go out and ask around, and if I get a job, then I get a job, if I dont....I dont O_o
Wha??
I just noticed that a ....small, warty (ew) dead skin thing that was on my left index finger (we're talking very small here....so small that you wouldnt be able to see it unless you looked carefully and under good light) has.....gone..
It's not there anymore O_o
Of course the last time I actually paid attention to it was probably late last year, but....I didnt think it would have gone .... @_@
Thats just weird......good, but very weird.
NP: U2 - Beautiful Day
Apparently U2 is more popular than the Beatles ever were (same with R.E.M.)
My brother was the one that told me this, so I dont know if it's true or not..
They deserve it though, they're very good..
I can lose myself in this song, well...I can do that with a lot of songs, but what I'm trying to say is that this song is good, okay? ^_^
NP: U2 - I still havent found what I'm looking for
(that's one bitch of a long title, no?)
I first heard this one when me, Josh and Finn went to Stages Time out..
I could barely hear the song over the DDR machine, but they kept playing the song, so I managed to get close to the speaker and hear "I still havent found what i'm looking for"
(I love it when a band names a song after the most common line in the song ^_^)
So when I got home I did a search for "I still havent found what i'm looking for", and tada! There is was ^_^
Hmm....I really need to move the songs out of my Napster download directory...
You know you need to move them out when you have 79 songs in there O_o
Yes, I'm a music freak
NP: U2 - She moves in mysterious ways
I think I should download some more U2 songs...
Dont know if I can be bothered tonight though.
Ewwww
My drink of coke tastes like washing up liquid O_o
What the hell???
I guess it was...the glass??
weird weird weird
I'll just have to pretend it doesnt taste like that, or something (thats rather hard to do, the smell is potent and the taste is something not easily forgotten)
I need to scan the pic I drew of Sasuke-kun, when I have I'll put it online.
I'm very proud of it for a first attempt ^_^;
Anyway, I tire of writing, I want something else..... to get me through this..... semi-charmed kind of life, baby, baby, yeah ^_^
(hey, if you've heard 3rd Eye Blind's 'I want something else', then you would find it amusing, okay?
Anyway, Ja
Fergus / 1:17 a.m. / Friday, June 29, 2001
(WAH!!!!!!!! I typed out this entry, but I lost it, then I retyped it and added more (quite long), was about to upload it, and my computer crashed....T_T)
NP: Robert Miles - Children
Wow! I just produced a pretty good pic of Sasuke-kun from Naruto.
My first attempt too, and I did it mostly from memory ^_^
Whenever I draw good pics I get this really nice feeling and...well.....feel great ^_^;;;
I need to draw more fanart, I'm rather good at it (where as my own stuff is harder as I dont have a proper style yet)
NP: Garou - Roch Howard's theme
Rock from SNK's Garou (fighting game) has a BGM that sounds exactly like Robert Miles' 'Children' during the chorus ^_^
He looks so cool too, if I had a jacket like his, I would SO come as him for this year's Cosplay ^_^
I'd need a wig though, hehe.
It just so happens I dont have long straight blond hair ^_^
And the purple wings of flame he creates when he wins a match, SO COOL! T_T
I spent so much of today doing school work *sigh* and I didnt even get much done ~_~;
Maybe I have some weird problem that makes it hard for me to understand questions...
Or maybe it's because I have a computer and TV right next to me ^_^;;
It doesnt help that I'm such a daydreamer too..
NP: Vanessa Mae - Classical Gas
Ah, nice relaxing music..
I'm currently listening to music from the Moods albums.
I think my mum doesnt have the latest, I should buy her it or something.
Moods 1 has my absolute faourite song ever, I'm not sure if I've mentioned it before...
'Crockett's theme' by Jan Hammer
It's the theme music for Crockett, the main character in Miami Vice.
I dont have much else to say, I've missed a few things I was going to say, as this is the third time i'm typing this ~_~;
Might as well get a slightly more early night than usual O_o
Also must play some FF-IX tomorrow, I've been so slack with it and havent touched it for 4 days now...
I dont feel comfortable taking my time since I'm borrowing it.
Gomen Finn-kun.
Anyway, am turning in for the night now...
Ja
Fergus / 02:52 a.m. / Thursday, June 28, 2001
NP: Pokemon Dance mix
Anime night at the theatre tonight, then Open late..
Dont know if I can bothered talking about it much..
I didnt like it...
I'm not exactly sure why, but I didnt.
Photon wasnt my type of anime, I did laugh a little bit however, but sex humour doesnt really sit too well with me.
'Blood: the last vampire' was....weird....
it was okay, not that great, something I would watch once and probably not again.
I'm feeling really weird...
Like everything that happened tonight, well.....didnt..
I feel blank, not emotionless, but blank....
if that makes sense...? O_o
I dunno, I dunno, I just dont know...
God, the AAC is weird..
I need to get a job, thus getting me a life...
Fergus / 01:59.am. / Wednesday, June 27, 2001
If you were suddenly the last person left in the world...
what would you do?
Would you kill yourself?
To have all your loved ones gone, and never to interact with another person ever again?
Would you not want to have to live the rest of your life without them, and thus take your life?
Or would you choose to live?
Live the rest of your days without any sort of human companionship?
What would you choose and why?
I would decide to live with it, afterall there is a whole world out there that I havent seen (of course getting to other countries raises a few problems, but hell, i'm gonna ignore them).
Of course I would miss everyone, of course my loved ones would sting my heart so much that I wish I were dead too.
But I sometimes wonder......If everyone was gone would you miss loved ones all that much?
I mean when you cant be with loved ones, but other people, it hurts and feels like you're being denied the most important things to you..
But if you knew everyone was gone, then you aren't missing out on anything that goes on.
You're not being denied anything then, and no one is more fortunate than yourself.
Your single being becomes human life itself, you're whats important.
It's selfish in a way that we think like that (*ahem* okay so i'm speaking for everyone here, go along with me, you know you want to..)
But does it really matter..?
Is the life of a stranger that you have the ability to rescue from death, worth the loss of say an arm or a leg?
Or lets take it a step further, how about someone you know?
Maybe a not so good friend..
Would you give up your arm for that person?
Call me a sad git, but I'd say no way.
There are four or five people I would do that for (not counting my mother and brother) and three I would die for.
Those three are very special people to me, I can live without them, as I could anyone if need be, but those three would haunt me till I die.
But even if I had that pain looming inside of me, I would choose to go on...
Taking the easy way out, suicide, is disgusting...
it's for fools and weaklings who think too hard.
You'll die in the future anyway, the outcome will be the same, but you can instead live and experiance things till then.
To experiance things is better than taking your life, even if those experiances are painful..
when you're dead, you're dead..
there are no fluffy clouds in which you sit on in the sky and watch over your loved ones...
there is nothing....
seeking salvation in death?
The wish of a fool becuase they are too weak to accept what they have in life and are too weak to change it.
You want something, get off your lazy ass and get it.
You hate what you're like?
Then change yourself...
"oh, but sir, it isnt that easy"
Of course it's not, lazy idiot!
You have to work hard for something, and afterwards you feel better about yourself.
Wow that kinda strayed off topic somewhere.....O_o
WAY too much Manji for me, his attitude just seems to rub off on me (Blade of the Immortal main character)
I've forgotten my point I was trying to make... ^_^;;
oh well, and I'm sleepy now, so I cant really finish it...
Abrupt ending I guess,
Ja Na
Fergus / 03:33 a.m. / Tuesday, June 26, 2001
NP: Bic Runga - Sway
Back from the '3x3 eyes' marathon at Zeb's.
I enjoyed it, but since the ending is so confusing I was a bit disappointed at the ending...
In fact after the first OAV it went a bit skew-if (odd).
Ah well, anyway I enjoyed the talk in the lounge.....talks are always fun....and it's so much better to have them in peoples home's then, lessay Open late cafe.
God Zeb has a nice house! the lounge is so cool (it would be better (for us ^_~) if that lovely big bugger of a TV was in the lounge, ne? ^_^)
NP: Tadpole - Alright
Saw Tadpole's new music video which is a parody of Dragonball Z, and wow! It's very very well done, and very funny.
I hope they make more like that...
But it's just pretty amazing that we here in New Zealand produced that!!
Wicked stuff, rad, boss, choice (felt like using some old words from Primary ^_^).
I really feel like watching some 80's cartoons and stuff, I kinda just realised how much stuff I have O_o
Though there are still plenty of things I can think of that I dont have (which I wish I had)
NP: Fur Patrol - Andrew
I'm playing all New Zealand music, btw (yeah, kiwi's! you go! ^_^)
Like Nadea was saying at Zeb's, NZ music has been getting really good these last few years.
Actually sounding like quality stuff with really good tunes.
(even making it onto American movie soundtracks, yeah!)
Not sure what else to say, I feel like I just want to get this done so I can do other stuff, but I have nothing else really to do (I think O_o).
So yeah, but I might as well end it here anyway.
Ja na
Fergus / 01:34 a.m. / Monday, June 25, 2001
NP: Goldfinger - If only
um....forgot what I was going to say...oh well.
Henderson (or most of it) had a powercut today....
Some idiot crashed into a transformer (and we're not talking a transforming robot disguised as a car)
It happened about 11am (I was still asleep ^_^;) and finally we got power back at 2:30pm..
So I had to wait a few hours till I could use the computer, wah!! >_<
I dont wanna have to wait.
NP: The Cure - Just like a dream
Anyway, at 6:30pm tonight, guess what?
Another Idiot crashed into another thingy-me-bob (which wasnt a transformer this time)
It was pitch black....but lo and behold!
I was there to save the day with my trusty Pen Torch!
To the kitchen I went!
There me and my mother got out the candles and matches..and.. *ahem*
"let there be light!!!"
yeah anyway, I was trying to do my school work when it happened (seems like something was trying to stop me ^_^
But I continue working away with two candles by my bedside table (making it seem awfully magical-ish).
Power came back on an hour later...
but what a coincidence, eh? ^_^
Tal Bachman - Romanticide
God this song rocks!
"a victim of romanticide" heheh ^_^
Probably my current favourite song (I get a new one every 4 or 5 days)
Will be an interesting day tomorrow, or maybe not.....I'm not too sure..
Hell, I'm sure it will be ^_^
And contrary to my normal habbit, I will go to bed earlier tonight (this morning).
so, Oyasumi!
Fergus / 02:21 a.m. / Sunday, June 24, 2001
Did I mention that I put up the new design for my site?
(about several weeks ago?)
And how it's got baby pictures of me in the 'about me' section? (do you really think I would put up pictures of me at my current age?... hah!)
I really need to scan my latest artwork, the ones up at the moment are old and sucky.
(I need to update the info for the pics too, for example, for one picture it says I drew 4 months ago, when in fact, it was four months ago from seven months ago ^_^;;;;)
Fergus / 03:35 p.m. / Saturday, June 23, 2001

YAYAYAYAYAYAYAY
Happy Birthday Steve-dono!
You're the best! I hope you have a really good day and I'll try to get you some sort of gift within the next few months O_o
(I've always wondered though, how come someone like Steve, my idol, has such a typical name? ^_^
LOL , oh well, whats a in a name anyway?)
buwhahahaha!
Fergus / 05:46 p.m. / Friday, June 22, 2001
NP: Pocket Monsters (pokemon) - Type Wild
Blade of the immortal is pretty good....in a violent unhappy kind of way ^_^;;;;
Not that I normally go for that kind of stuff.....but I borrowed it off Joshu, so it dont matter much.
The art is really really amazing stuff, I wish I could draw like that.
But then again, I keep changing my mind on what I would like my style to be like.
And I havent played any FF-IX in the last two days!!!!
*gasp* *shock* *horror*
yes, isnt it sad?? ^_^
Must play some more today.
Must do some drawings today.
Must scan the pic I did for Edwyn today.
Must do other things I havent thought of yet, today.
Must go do School work now.
Fergus / 03:12 p.m. / Friday, June 22, 2001
Well, I got rid of the last entry, whoopdeedoo.
bleh bleh bleh
didnt see the Mummy 2 today either.
bleh.
what a bleh day.
Fergus / 12:55 a.m. / Friday, June 22, 2001
NP : Tal Bachman - Romanticide
I really really like this song, it's catchy as hell and is just cool cause I can associate with whats being said.
I wanna be a lonely driver! Well not really, but it sounds cool and the idea is sometimes appealing ^_^
It's confirmed, tomorrow I'm meeting Finn, EB and whoever else outside Borders at 10:30am to see 'The Mummy 2'.
Means I'll have to be up for 8:20am to catch the bus (es) and get there at 9:30am.....O_o;;
I'll be an hour early, dammit...
But there are no other buses that can get me there before 10:30am..
WHY???
Damn you ....evil bus people.... who arrange the bus timetables!!!
Burn in the depths of hell!!
MUWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
*ahem* so yeah.....thats annoying, I'll have to find something to do for an hour *sigh*
ah well....
anyway, since I'm getting up early, it means I'll have to go to bed early...
That also means I havent gotten to play FF-IX at all today O_o
Thats a pisser, yare yare.
Anyway, g'night!
Oyasumi!
Fergus / 11:55 p.m. / Wednesday, June 20, 2001
NP: Beegees - Stayin alive
Woke up very late today, 12:45pm it was....
I'm starting to remind myself of those young guys you would see portrayed in ads and tv shows that sleep in till noon and are lazy etc....
well yeah.....I am like that, but thats cause I stay awake till 3am or 4am playing FF-IX, I feel like a nerdy type person now, damn.
I had the most relaxing sleep though, I awoke feeling the most comfortable that I have been in a long long time.
My legs are little sore, which is good.......means my exercising is working, Haha! No pain no gain (or something)
I'm hopefully going into the city tomorrow to see the Mummy 2 with Finn and whoever else comes along.
Means I'll have to get a bus to New Lynn, then transfer there to get to Downtown....
This would be all fine and dandy if I knew where to wait for the transfer bus at New Lynn bus centre..
I've done it before, but I dont know if they stop at the same place or where ever they feel like..
I suppose there's no reason to worry though O_o
And should I goto Zeb's on Sunday for the 3x3 eyes marathon?
I dont know...
I'll think about it I guess....though I suppose I'll end up going despite my reasons for not wanting to.
Whatever, time to get up I think.
Fergus / 02:53 p.m. / Wednesday, June 20, 2001
NP: Speed Racer (porn remix)
haha, exercising buggers me a bit, but I feel pretty good after each time I do it as well....
LOL
This Speed Racer porn remix is soooooooooo funny!
"here he comes, here comes speed racer!"
Whoever made it is really good.
I'm listening to lots of comedy mp3s at the moment....
*happy sigh* so funny...
I'm getting so distracted......
I think I'll stop here, and do another entry later.
Fergus / 10:41 p.m. / Tuesday, June 19, 2001
NP: Vertical Horizon - We are
Hey! I actually managed to go to bed earlier last night, allbeit only by an hour, but it's better than nothing.
I had a funny dream last night (this morning, whichever) about me holding a group thing at my place, except we weren't watching anime, we were watching 80's cartoons at the request of Nadea.
My room was a lot bigger and kinda looked like the inside of a giant shell O_o
very weird....
And then there were the harem girls @_@
They were dancing in the background.......very very weird..
I was waiting for people to turn up and this pirate guy came and start harassing me and the few others that had arrived...
I ended up taking him out to the driveway and beating him up (yay! you'd expect in a dream I would be the one getting beaten up) and then some more members of the AAC turned up..
That's about where it ended.
Funny that........some of the dream I can see came from 'Banjo Kazooie', 'I dream of Jeanie' and of course real life AAC stuff.
What's also funny is that this morning I downloaded another Manga, this one called 'One Piece' a pirate/adventure manga.
I've heard about it before, as it is Weekly Jumps #1 popular manga....
Well it was before 'Naruto' came along....
Anyway the popularity of 'One Piece' was enough to get a anime series and movie made of it...
That's why I'm pretty certain an anime will be made of Naruto.
Now I should really get out of bed and get changed and brush my hair etc etc, as it is 3pm ^_^;
Fergus / 03:00 p.m. / Tuesday, June 19, 2001
NP: Goo Goo Dolls - Black Balloon
Dammit! Stupid Adobe photoshop!
Why wont you save my picture to a .Gif???
Bleh to you!
grrr..
Maybe I'll try asking Michael, he said he does graphics stuff or something...
No, he cant help me, the swine!
I did a bit of school work today........I got the work out in front of me....only to start reading an interview with Mamoru Oshii in my latest Animerica magazine ......
distracted for about two hours I was....
Anyway, the work got done after a while..
I watched Malcolm in the Middle, funny episode.....
I wonder what anime it is that they show a clip of in the opening credits? Nothing I can recognize.
Dark Angel was better than usual...........although I actually wasnt listening to what was going on.......maybe thats why? ^_^
Now I think I'll play some more Final Fantasy IX...
It seems I have nothing better to do, heh
Fergus / 10:32 p.m. / Monday, June 18, 2001
NP: Smile.DK - Middle of the night
Such a catchy tune *taps feat to the beat*
I woke up this morning with a stomach ache again, how not unusual ~_~
Enos saved the day thankfully, thats very good stuff....
Doesnt taste that great, but it works.
NP: Smile.DK - Kissy Kissy
You have to be in the right mood to enjoy Smile.DK music...
Sometimes I cant stand it, thats cause i've been in a bit of a rotten mood the last time I listened to them.
Right now it's almost making me wish to go out and DDR O_o
*shock* *horror* *gasp*
NP: Smile.DK - Butterfly
I'm just way too shy to play it in public...
I wonder if anyone finds that unusual....?
'Cause of my personality and such..
Damn, I'm getting through songs way too quickly, it's because I daydream so much
NP: Smile.DK - Boys
"i want to feel your body", god this song is funny ^_^
Definitely my favourite of the Smile.DK songs I've heard though.
Hmm.....what day is it? Monday?
MAlcolm in the Middle and Dark Angel on tonight...
Hopefully I wont forget or anything.
I think I should get out of bed now....or at least soon....
But it's so nice and warm in bed ^_^
Ah well.
Fergus / 12:52 p.m. / Monday, June 18, 2001
*happy sigh* ahhhh, my school work is done for the day.
So I then made my bed (I cant believe how many people dont make their bed, lazy bums) and I got myself some chocolate ice cream that my brother got earlier.
Now I'm sitting in my nicely made bed, resting against my cushion typing this, listening to music, writing down notes to myself, and getting ready to play more Final Fantasy IX.
A nice new 'the Big O' poster is on my cupboard door, next to the King of Fighters '98 one.
Hey, Steve-dono is online!
awesome awesome awesome!
He's not staying cause he has to pack, but still.....^_^
I'll get him to check this blog out..
Fergus / 08:10 p.m. / Sunday, June 17, 2001
Yayayayayayyyyy!
Basically finished the design now ^_^
So it should be all ready for use.
I kinda wish my entries from my livejournal were in here....but I cant be bothered putting them in here....
Maybe I will sometime, but right now I need to start doing some school work, or else i'm in trouble..
