 HOME!! SWEET SWEET SMELL OF FREEDOM!
*deep breath* It's good to be home. What a way to spend my birthday and weekend. I ended up in hospital because my clinic's doctor insisted I go to the hospital's A&E department for my second blood test as it is kinda urgent. Before I know it, I am admitted in there for observation and confirmed that I have dengue fever -_-lll
Kai came over for a visit. Whee~~ *sprinkles some petals over Kai* My fever went away on the second day but my platelet count is still low. On monday, it increased and so I am discharged today.
I have MC up to 28th *grins* REVENGE IS MINE~~~~~

I want my blood back...
It's my birthday today and the doctor took some of my blood away. I had stomach flu and the doctor find it weird that I still have fever, so she took my blood for sampling. Turns out my white blood platelets are too low. 78. Supposed to be 100 to 150. So, I have to go back again for them to take more blood. Yadda~~~~~ *sulks*
Went out with Kai to get my blue+white jacket ^^
Headed down to the arcade to kill some time and we got trashed by a Venom user. He even used IK on Kai... That was awful -_-
So we waited for him to leave before taking over the machine.
So sleepy... I want my blood back~ *sulks*

Need to get that teapot song out of my head
Got my arcade controller and GGXX today.
So now I have GGXX and GGXX #Reload~
Was all over the Hougang and Toa Payoh area with Kai. Tired na...
Managed to sneak the controller and game into my room. Playing hide and seek with my mum. ^^;
Now, off to pia my XX and #Reload on my arcade controller~

Fwee~
Got my PS2 finally! *grins widely*
So, why am I not GGXX-ing the night away?
Darn controllers, that's why.
Sure, it has an analog stick, but navigating with your thumb = >_<
It's already very good that I can go all the way to the boss stage.
Revenge shall be mine when I get the arcade controller.
Grawr!

Randomness
Went to Kai's tailor today.
First impression? Sugoi.
Why?
For one, She didn't freak out.
For two, She actually knows the structure (she got most of the parts correct) by looking at the picture, without me filling her in the details. Very very unlike my previous tailor.
The price is alright, in my opinion... Compared to my previous tailor, it is reasonable. If it's my previous tailor, I definately will be fleeced.
Friday.... Looking forward to friday... Whee~ That makes 3 things done~ v^^v

I need sleep
Jotaro is bringing me down to Tampines Mall to get my PS2 this friday. Yay~ So yeah moo-moo cow, sumimasen... *bows*
Lacking in sleep... Darn... I hate school...
Wonder what will happen if I flunk this project... *seriously wonders*

>.<
Nothing much happened except for my starting work on my boots.
Me and Kai brought the ever directionless Siren to Carrefour. After Siren left for her friend's house, me and Kai went to Lavender then to Bugis and back to Lavender before heading home.
Arcade session at Bugis is terrible. After the first stage of GGXX, a daredevil came and challenged me -_-;
I could have won, but I panicked in the 3rd round and there goes me... I never got challenged at the first stage before!! This is too sudden.
After Kai chased him away and I resumed, another daredevil came!! This time, Yukina (who appeared out of no where) chased him away and I resumed the game. Lost to the CPU in the end... Sorta threw off balance...
There was a Millia user whom Kai was fighting and it freakily resembled the incident we had at MS. All the Bad Moons!!!
And after waiting for ages for a GGXX machine, barely finishing my first stage, a daredevil came again!!!!!!
Do I have this "I am Holy, come challenge me!" aura or something?! EVERYwhere I go, I am bound to get challenged.
I WANT A PS2 ASAP!!! *cries a bucketload of tears*
Waited for over a month and still waiting for my PS2...

^__^
School ended half an hour early and I was bored. Wanted to go out and asked if Kai wanna come along. She skipped school today. (shhhh)
Turns out she's just stepping out of the house and heading for the same destination XD
So off we go. Picked up a few more GG manga while Kai can't find any new titles for herself. So I went to help her place her order as well as mine. Turns out one of the titles I want is available from the shelves. (8 pairs of eyes and we didn't see it?!) I asked if there is another copy and lucky us, we now have a copy of Guilty Gear Xtra, the official manga by Ishiwatari Daisuke, each! *3 cheers* We got the book! But we didn't run... XD

Wheeheehee...
Found and bought GGXX #Reload original Japanese version today while out shopping with Kai. Wheeeeee...
But I haven't got my PS2 yet... *sheepishly scratches head*
Friend not free to bring me to get my PS2 yet na... So doing things in reverse till I get it na...
I am cursed. For both GGXX machines I played on I lost at the 6th round. This is not my day at the arcade na... *pouts* But was rather fun to see Alex suddenly challenging Kai after Alex lost twice to a Baiken/Johnny user.
Harahetta... I just realised I didn't have lunch today... And I promised my mum I'll eat something too. Oops. Guess my mind was too occupied to think of food XD

Sakura~ Sakura~
Owarimashita~ Yay~ *3 cheers*
Everyone did a nice job for Chingay ^^
We were hyper-ly waving to the dumbfounded passengers on public buses on our way back too XD
Spotted Su-chan on the way to our 3rd performing area na. Glomped and took a quick piccy XD
And the obaa-chan that waved to us with a scarf on preview night, she's there too ^^
I hope she managed to catch the Yukata B group's performance coz her seat is quite behind where we are. Nice lady she is. (So I have a soft spot for obaa-chans, sue me)
Bwargh... Back to normal routine of cursing projects and assignments...
*S-Ko mode* CuUuUuUuRsE yOoOoOoOoOoOoU!!!!!!!!

Lecture Monday... Bleeeeah...
Monday is lecture day. Bleeeeeah...
Marina Square GGXX Outing yesterday was fun. Eiji couldn't join us in the last minute. The GGXX machine I played on had an unusable S button. The horror!!!! But managed to get to Sol stage anyway and lost. Bleah... The only usable controller was the GGX 1.5 2nd player one. Lost to Testament. Grah...
On our way out, we saw Yukina DDR-ing away. Seems like we can bump into her at any random arcade. We saw her twice at Bugis and now in Marina Square too. Went to Games Station downstairs to play #Reload. Lost to Sol. Again. *mumble grumble*
Decided to play GGXX then. 2 rounds into the game and this cheap Millia player came and challenged me. Hence proven to everyone that everywhere I go, I'm bound to get challenged. Yukina dropped by and said if I lose, she'll kick that guy's ass for me. Well, this fella didn't play fair. Kai and Yukina pointed to the screen and shouted "CHEEEAAAP!!!" while Chibi went "HEY! Irritating!!!!" when they saw the "Bad Moons" & "Iron Sabers" loop. Well, Kai and Yukina tried to kick that fella's ass but failed. So we just stood around to curse the fella away. Chibi sorta improved, since he mash alot lesser now XD
At least the people at Bugis play fair. Tho I don't like the config there, but guess I'll have to settle for Bugis for good games.

Warm and Dry ^_^
But I was half drenched when I got home. The rain had to turn into a storm before I reach my bus stop. And the mini park in front of my house gets flooded. My poor boots!! *wails*
Speaking of boots, I went out with a friend to custom make my boots while he collect his. Turns out that they made a mistake on his and he has to wait for them to make another pair. I on the other hand prayed hard that I am able to make mine. So the next time he collect his, I hope I am able to start work on mine.
It was raining and I have no where to go. Said friend wants to go to Orchard and ask if I need a lift. Cool with it since it's raining and I need a lift to somewhere I can transport myself elsewhere. Taxi driver refused to go to Orchard as there's a jam there and he can only drop us off at PS. The moment I reach Dhouby Ghaut, I got a message from Kai saying there's a cheap auto Johnny user. And she is at PS too XD
Went up, tried challenging that player and both rounds I managed to kill half his life while he dusted and auto Overdrived away on me -_-
At least Kai killed him in the end with her Anji *3 cheers!*
When the other machine is free, I went to play on it. Hardly finishing a round and a daredevil came and challenged me -_-;
Managed to win him but he continued and used Venom and I got killed -_-;;
Kai once again saved the day with her Anji! *3 cheers!* But that machine was faulty... A very loose joystick and a half dead HS button -_-;;;
Heh, had dinner with Kai and her mum + Grandma. Shouldn't have eaten the fries... Damn potatoes... Don't like them but don't like to waste food either... But I gave up on the fish after biting onto a damn bitter part of it. And it's really bitter. I have no idea what it is but it's BITTER.
GGXX outing tomorrow with Kai, Chibi and Eiji~
I wonder how would Chibi fare after our GG Lectures, Tutorials and Lab sessions. Hmmm....

Don't want to watch the CNY programme on TV now...
I am bored. Tomorrow's CNY~ And the only reason why my mum ain't nagging at me now is because I am now doing the custom of Shou Shui to bring blessings for parents. So peace and quiet till MIDNIGHT!
Anyway, came home to see my X Japan and hide posters taken down by my parents, but my anime/GG ones are untouched
What in Hell happened?!
Oh well... *shrugs* Guess I'll put them up again after CNY...
Let's see...
Tomorrow is the usual visit Grandparents, pray at the temple then visit Dad's side relatives (Dad youngest on his side) = Have to be questioned like crazy over academic matters, "why don't you have a BF" matters blah blah blah...
Next day, Chu 2, is the usual rot around at home and mum's side releatives come visit us (Mum's eldest on her side) = Have to defend my home!! NO COUSINS IN MY ROOM OR I SWEAR I WILL KILL! Was ok until this &W%^&*!% cousin climbed on my bed, opened by bedtop cupboard and broke my D-Hell Custom THEN act innocent! And rude cousins demanding to play on MY PS in MY ROOM and demand me to change games for them! Hello, you may be my junior and all but I AM YOUR SENIOR AFTERALL. Didn't school teach you manners?! A few times I resisted the urge to blow up at my uncles/aunts out of respect, but I swear, if they give me the same crap like they usually do, I feel no qualms to give them a piece of my mind.
Then, Chu 3, out to custom make my boots with a friend...
Chu 4... SUNDAY BLARGH... Oh well... Ang Bao unwrapping day nontheless *whistles*
Monday... Start of school... Kai has all the luck of having the day off on Mondays
CNY is a whole 15 days!!! Sure wish they let us have the entire 15 days off...
Gong Xi Gong Xi Gong Xi Ni~ Hey~
..... Ack~ See what lack of sleep did to me?! I am actually humming CNY songs!! THE HORROR!!! NOOOOOooooOOOOoooo!!

=_=
Need more sleep.... Grrr.... Don't like Sundays... Damn restricted... If my dad's working, fine, not too bad. But he isn't today, so bleeeeeeeah....
Yesterday's full day rehearsal was fun~ Lotsa nice colorful costumes here and there. And I like the band performances. All of them. They're all good in their own ways ^^
Argh, am so unhappy that I got woken up at... 8:30am... Yeah, so my bio clock wakes me up 8am max, but I slept at 1am last night can?! Really wished my mum would just let me sleep longer instead of poking at me and ask me what I wanna eat -_-|||
I want sleep, not food! Darn... And I can never fall asleep in the day... Yay for being able to be awake in school, but yucks when I want more sleep -_-||| Must sleep early tonight...

No~~~
All was bright and sunny... Nice and calm.
Then, in the evening, Kai SMSed me.
"They are returning GG Isuka to Japan after today!"
*insert thunder and lightning and storm and wind*
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHY MUST THEY DO THIS?!?!?!?!?!
IT'S ONLY BEEN A WEEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
At least managed to influence Chibi hahaha... Now he wants to play GG too... *smirks*
BUT WHY MUST THEY TAKE AWAY ISUKA?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!

*tries to ignore that email*
One harmless offline message is all I left and I got a loud email with a sentence in all caps to shout back at me. Fine, no more offline messages from me, case closed, the end.
Went out with Chibi today~ Lunch at Yoshinoya, let him select more photos that he want to re-print and went to take puri kura. Konica prints sux... The re-prints seemed washed out...
Then managed to drag him to Bugis to meet up with Kai and Eiji. Heh~ Let him watch us slug it out in GG Isuka. Eiji the first to get killed by us hahaha~ But I lost to Kai anyway. Tho I did won a round :P
Met Yukina aka Bridget cosplayer at the arcade too. She's genki-cute and she really loves Bridget haha... Kawaii na...
Mmmm sleepy... Morning class tomorrow... Sucks na...

School Started
New semester started... Darn... Am now in ELQ... the number of students you can count with one hand and a missing lecturer... What a way to start a new semester...
Went out with Chibi and Jason yesterday. Went to Art Friends to source materials for Chibi's sword. Jason's quite quiet, but he's cute when he speaks. Rotted at Suntec's KFC because Chibi is hungry. Was quite fun actually, except all of us are kinda lacking in sleep. Me and Jason went offline at 12.30am while Chibi went offline at 4/5am *sweatdrop* So everyone is quite lethargic.
I am so hungry... And sleepy... Darn... Jet lagging the first day if school. And I blame it on my super slack time table last semester. Ultamite slack last semester... Break time at 1pm and I am starving... Urgh...

Love? Hate? Utterly Confused...
Yes, that's how I felt after playing Guilty Gear Isuka. The gameplay rocks, but it's damn confusing during the game and thus I am utterly confused. It's either you whack your partner by mistake or vice versa.
Was playing at Bugis with Kai and her sis, Alex. Basically me and Alex hahaha.... And nobody played but us 3. Simply because watching it is stressful enough lol... And the 2 of us were making a ruckus coz we kept whacking each other and kept switching lanes by mistake and got whacked here and there.
Alex used Sol while I used Ky. As in the words of Alex, "Best partners!!"
The 3 of us screamed when the CPU decided to challenge us with a Ky and Sol pairing as well. The game is survival mode when played alone or 2 player team. If 4 players, it will be 2 vs 2 or individual slugfest.
We fought all the way to level 99, the last boss.
Hell, at one round, Alex died and I was battling alone and I was just ONE FREAKING HIT POINT away from completing the game till that stupid idiot of a monster slapped me and I died. I spent 6.50 on the game... Ahaha Kai and Alex took turns to battle with me and they spent 6 and 5 on the game respectively.
They both gave up and I fought a round alone and gave up.
If you see a level 99 Ky with the initials JO! in the ranking, that be me *laughs*
I was ranked number 3 because Kai and Alex quit and so they ranked number 2.

Aftermath
Yesterday's cosplay... I was at the halls early and saw a few GG cosplayers (I already knew there was a GG team) and SMSed Kai about Anji coz she is an Anji fan.
Then me and Chibi, who was cosplaying a student from Battle Royale, went to register for entry. As I queued, I saw a black Furaiken leaning against the wall.
Kuro Ky~ But no where to be seen... *sighs*
After that, I went in to check out the stuff... And noticed that the 2 machines are GGX and not GGXX. Then I looked at the huge screen. "GGXX Competition cancelled". Figures. Found out from my shifu, Takahan, that the wrong machines were delivered plus there were not enough machines. Oh well... Then decided to get my lunch with Chibi. As we went out, Kai and her sister were in the queue. And as I went out, I got to see the back of Kuro Ky. SMSed Kai to help me check out whether he pass or fail as I went off. Then, as I went back after a quick lunch, I ran into Kuro Ky. So, I SMSed Kai again.
"I want to arbish Kuro Ky"
His uniform is wrong!!! Not in proportion!!! And his Furaiken is like a toy because he is so tall and the sword is so short! *sweatdrop*
Sure, he looks cute but still I wanna arbish him for the above reasons *laughs*
There is a female Akai Ky cosplayer... Well, everything is wrong and she is LOUD and VULGLAR. My god, I so wanna kill her. Be it any character you are cosplaying, this is not the way to behave! And according to Kat, who has a booth outside, she was bitching around loudly -_-#
*Rising FOrce*
Then I went in to check out Kai and her sis kick people's ass at the game. Just then one of my friends used Ky and won a round from Kai and left, so I sat down and continued and won Kai *sweatdrop* I was lucky I guess...
Then this fat kid came and used Sol. This kid is a noob and a masher!! I hate mashers... The controllers are innocent!! It doesn't mean that the harder you pound the buttons you make more damage. You damage the poor machine dammit. Managed to tie the game but lost in the end.
"I shall avenge you!" and Kai used Ky to whack the crap out of that masher kid. I love her!! Perfect life to boot.
After Kai kicked another guy's ass, that masher kid came back. "I want to defeat you" he said and mashed the poor HS button again -_-
Well, he lost anyway XD
Then we went outside for a breather... A little photo taking of the incomplete GG team... Then back in again for the games XD
The solo and pair cosplayers are presenting themselves to the judges.
Kai whacked me upside down 3 times in a row *note to self: Do not offend Kai*
After she went to the bathroom, I played a round with the CPU before these 3 guys appeared and decided to challenge me...
I whooped 3 guys' ass.. Err... Hehe?
But after 3 rounds, I kinda fear for my life coz the 3 guys kept challenging me consecutively. But I think the "curse" of the "max win = 3 rounds" kinda saved my life? lol... Like Kai said "This machine is cursed, after 3 wins, you sure lose" lol... Yeah, the guys got kinda fed up and all, mashing the buttons, whapping the machine after they lost and sat down and whapped on the 1P button to re-challenge me...
That was when Mel just came. And well, they won and I left. Looked around for Kai and just in time for the groups presentation. We sat and waited for GGXX Team lol...
I hate this stupid fangirl. I have a perfect detailed front view of Kuro Ky doing his stance on stage. And she has to JUMP UP AND DOWN AND KNOCK MY ARM! And Kuro Ky shot be gone.
After the presentations, me and Kai went around to continue taking pics of the GG gang. (We used up a roll on them alone, how's that? BWAHA!)
Kai couldn't find where they are, so I pointed to the corner of the hall.
Me: See X'mas Ky? There they are.
Kai: Oh... There they are...
That's how tall Kuro Ky is *sweatdrop* And they're walking around in santa hats because they are X'mas themed.
We followed them outside and approached Kuro Ky to request for individual pose pics. Kuro Ky seem to be in a X'mas mood.
Kuro Ky: *pose with back facing us*
*silence + no flashlights*
Kai: *whispers* eeeh... can take off the hat or not...
*silence*
Kuro Ky: *turns* ???
Me: *points to head*
Kuro Ky: Oh... *takes off hat and resumes*
After that, we still lingered around trying to get him and Sol to do a Rival pose. But... He sorta has this "what now? nooooo~" look on his face *sweatdrop*
Then, we tried to approach Sol but he is so into character that he just walked past us without even looking *multipile sweatdrops*
Ok, so Ky and Sol are rivals but this is ridiculous. When Kuro Ky is around, Sol is nowhere to be found. When Kuro Ky walks off, Sol pops out of nowhere. And this happened so many times, me and Kai were stranded and dunno what to do. Till Eiji appeared and laughed her ass off and helped us approach Sol. Just then someone hijacked his Fuenken as he went to look for Kuro Ky... So... After a while, he came back with both Kuro and Akai Ky -_-'''
Kai: Actually, we need 1 only...
Kuro Ky: Oh ok *walks away*
Me: Nononononono we want this one~ *points to Kuro Ky*
Kuro Ky and Sol: *confused*
But in the end we have 2 Kys VS 1 Sol and in one shot I purposely left out Akai Ky *smirks*
Left the place after the prize presentations.
Kai: 3 cheers for an entire roll of GG pics!
Me: YAY~
Went to Bedok for dinner with Kai, Chibi, Eiji and Kat. Took bus home with Kai and Eiji and ended the day tired but happy...
