Easy Fortune, Happy Life

2009-11-08T17:26:28Z

I frigging hated this drama! This is the first series I've watched that I wanted the leading lady and the secondary leading guy to be together. This was poorly written and I hated Da Feng.

Summary
The Yan family's company is worth NT$80,000. Grandpa Yan has dropped a bomb on the family, that whoever marries Xu Fu An will inherit the company. Xu Fu An is a country bumpkin living with her grandmother and brother. She is knowledgeable in medicine. Her grandmother's also a medicine woman and when she was young, she fell in love with Grandpa Yan, but grandpa Yan only used her for her medicine recipe and left her with a lie and thus created Bao Bao Company(I think that's the name). Grandpa Yan got sick and started feeling guilty and after learning of Fu An's grandma's death, vowed to protect her and her brother, thus he dropped the bomb on the family. Da Feng is cold and ruthless and only wants the NT$80,000 and hired some guys to go after Fu An and get rid of her. After some devine intervention (grandma you sure are mean) Xu Fu An and Pi Dan (her brother) went to live with they Yan family and thus starts this hateful drama.

Cast
Lan Cheng Long as Yan Da Feng 嚴大風
Chen Qiao En as Xie Fu An 謝福安
Roy Qiu as Han Dong Jie 韓東杰
Jocelyn Wang as Jiang Zhen Zhen 江珍珍
Xiu Jie Kai as Yan Yang 嚴陽

Opinion
As I said before, I hated this drama. Han Dong Jie deserved to be with Fu An. You think that after what Da Feng did to me (Fu An in this case), I'd forgive him? F*CK NO! Han Dong Jie was with her through all her problems, comforted her and just was there. He never grabbed her and lost his chance. I would never forgive (Da Feng) someone for doing that to me. He lied, used her and killed her frigging grandmother (well he didn't commit it, but his action lead her to her death) for crying out loud and for money! He fell in love with her, but does that give him the reason to stay with her? NO! This was poorly written and I watched it till episode 15, cuz I just couldn't take it anymore.

So I rate this one 4/10 (only because Roy was so frigging hot and I just wanted to huggle him and never let go). I hope Roy gets a better role and another drama.

The best part in this whole series came from Roy's character in episode 15

Roy learns whom his grandfather is (the rival of Bao Bao). They have an emotional scene at the hospital in which Dong Jie rips into him. At home he's looking at the picture and there is a date on it, behind the pic there's a note written, where he wishes her daughter a happy b-day. Han Dong Jie meets with him at Lucifer's Restaurant and tells him that his mother left him when he was little and he never knew when her b-day was, so he's happy to have found out and that today the two of them can celebrate her b-day (I cried). It's so touching.

The thing I hated the most (saw the last part of episode 17) they brought in a plain girl whose supposedly is going to be an intern and you see Han Dong Jie looking at her. That's the ending for him... a plain girl! Come on bring him someone whose also a gangster chick style and can match up to him, that suits him! UGH! OK this pissed me off so don't think of watching this series... ever!

Charlie's Bar

2009-11-07T12:40:02Z

Charlie's Bar was founded in 1941 by Charlie and Marie Brouns. It's a unique place unlike any other place. There are tons of memorabilia, autographed pics, dolls, old jackpot slots etc. etc. tons of really cool stuff.

Yesterday a few colleagues of mine went there for Happy Hour. It was fun and it's my kind of place. I took some pics! We drank and ate snack platters (to die for!!!) and we chatted about life in general and the slogan "what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" has been transformed in "What happens in Charlie's Bar stays in Charlie's Bar" LOL!

Those are some pics. We've been informed that every 2 years they take down everything and clean them up.

You're Beautiful episode 7-8

2009-11-01T16:14:52Z

OMG!!! The suspense is killing me! This is by far the best drama I've seen so far (#2 is now Fated to Love you). It has everything in it without being boring, predictable or same storyline as countless other dramas. It's just great ! I will use the short version of Tae-kyung's name and will use Kyung for him.

Spoilers will follow below

Episode 7 was really sweet and I cried and was so freaking funny! I was laughing like mad. The part I like best was when Kyung and Mi Nam were sitting near a tree looking at the stars and moon. The line goes something like this: Mi nam says that Kyung is the sun to her.

Go Mi Nam: "So I'm like the moon that's always sticking to the sun".
Kyung: "The stars all shine brightly, but the moon is the only thing I see". <- holy shit that just killed me.

Go Mi Nam says that if it's OK for her to like the star and Kyung tells her to ask the star since she's seeing it. Go Mi Nam is looking at him, while he's looking up at the star trying to find the one Go Mi Nam is talking about. That's just the sweetest scene ever!!! I also loved how Jeremy also got some "aww" moment.

In episode 7 Jeremy tells Go Mi Nam that it isn't a sin to love and that to love is a really great thing and lends him/her a book. This is just sweet, without knowing he totally told her that it's OK to love and that it's not a sin. Just loved this moment.

This is in episode 8. After Go Mi Nam sang her song, she left the studio crying and was comforted by Shin Woo. She later is sitting in the park and wants to be invisible, Jeremy pops up and tells him/her he can see her. They hang out the whole day and Jeremy let's Mi Nam ride his secret magic bus. He tells him/her they'll meet again in an hour and he says:

Jeremy: "Since it's all going back to normal in an hour, just for now let me like you". Aww man this is just killing me.

After that it gets cute again with Kyung and Mi Nam, they are shooting the video for her single and they have to act casually and they start throwing leaves at each other and Kyung tackles her and starts cackling like mad (so damn cute) and Go Mi Nam makes a pig nose (you have to watch the episodes to understand why :) )

Now is the sad part.

It's Kyung's B-day (he celebrates his B-day another day, but that day was the day he was born on) and his mom calls him to come meet her. Kyung acts all bratty saying "Oh now she wants to meet with me" but you can see that he's happy about it. Upon arrival he sees she's not alone. She's with producers and what not. You can see he's sad about it and he excuses himself. His mom follows him and is angry at his behavior. She says that she is planning on telling the media that he's her son and that it will help her (career). She wants him to remake that song for her, she wants that legacy. "Is that how much you loved him" and she says "yes". She says that by having him, she lost the love of her life. He angrily tells her that because of him, his world shattered as well. She angrily tells him:

Hwa Ran: "because I had you, I lost it all. You think it was terrible I abandoned you, but because of you, it was horrible for me to have lost him. Since it's your fault, help me keep that memory".

Holy shit that was so frigging horrible thing to say to your child!

At this moment he's all welled up and turns around and tells her:

Kyung: "f you want to take credit for giving birth to me, at least you should remember when that was".

She is all still and says: "was it today" and he just walks away.

Mi Nam heard and saw it all.

Inside Kyung can't stand the pain any longer and collapses against a wall and starts crying and I cry along with him. Mi Nam watches him and says:

Mi Nam: "Mother superior, in the dark my star is crying, what should I do?"

Reviews: New Anime for October 2009

2009-10-18T15:18:55Z

I will start with the crappiest one, I'm even thinking of dropping it.

Hanato Kobato is a girl whom needs to collect broken hearts in order for her wish to be fulfilled. This series is one of many of Clamp's. I really don't like this one. Kobato is really annoying and grates on my nerves. There is the lead guy who puts Kurogane to shame :) He's hot! I also like Loryogi (?), the stuffed dog. Kobato is from another planet (really, she is, I think) and is unacostumed to the human world and she screws up sometimes... that's the annoying part. I know it just started and maybe after a few more episodes, she will become less annoying... I am giving her one more chance.

This anime has 24 episodes.

Miracle Train is centered around a train that only appears to lost girls. If they are troubled by something, the train will appear and find a way to help the girls. On the train there are 6 train stations (6 good looking guys). I'm not sure about this one. I saw the first episode and I just don't know what to make of this... I think it's kinda pointless. The guy characters are hot!

This anime has 12 episodes.

Inuyasha returns after a 5 years hiatus and will continue where it left off and run until the end. So this time it's the last of Inuyasha (thank god! I can't stand Kikyo). One thing I have to say, I am sooooo pissed they killed Kagura. She died looking at Sesshoumaru... I'd like to die that way... Anyways it's really good so far.

This anime has 26 episodes.

Darker Than Black: Ryuusei no Gemini Follows two years after the first season left off. This time the story takes place in Russia and we see a different Hei. We are not sure why, but maybe the death of Yin... This is still so confusing, but damn this series is good. They start off by killing a lot of the contractors from the first season, I liked April, to be bad she died. I am so looking forward to more!

I am not sure, but they have written on ANN that it's 12 episodes?

Lady Castle & You're Beautiful

2009-10-17T16:55:14Z

Take care of the young lady - aka Lady Castle - aka My Fair Lady etc. etc. (They still can't make up their minds on the name).

Stars actress Yoon Eun Hye (Goong, First Shop of Coffee Prince) and Yoon Sang Hyun (Queen of Housewives). Although the drama came to an end a week ago, if you still haven't watched it, I suggest you do.

Kang Hye Na (Yoon Eun Hye) is a spoiled rich brat, whose grandfather owns one of the biggest companies in Korea. Seo Dong Chang (Yoon Sang Hyun) is a retired host, whose mother's death gave him a big debt. He's trying hard to pay the loan sharks. He meets Kang Hye Na when she rams her car in his truck, so ensues a dangerous cat & mouse play between the two, until Seo Dong Chan wins by becoming her personal buttler. They soon become very close and Seo Dong Chan helps her to become a strong person. She meets the love of her life, Lee Tae Yoon (Return of Iljimae actor Jung Il Woo), but she soon starts having feelings for Seo Dong Chan.

It's a cute drama, funny and I love Yoon Sang Hyun (he can sing! He's hot and is adorable when he smiles). Yoon Eun Hye is so pretty in this one, the dyed her hair red (o0).

I give it 8/10 ^^

You're Beautiful

Stars Jang Geun Suk (Baby & I, Beethoven Virus) and Park Shin Hye (Goong S) as members of an Idol Group called A.N. Jell (Angel anyone?)

From L-R; Jung Yong Hwa (Kang Shin Woo), Park Shin Hye (Go Mi Nam/Go Mi Nyu), Hjang Geun Suk (Hwang Tae Kyung), Lee Hong Ki (Jeremy).

Jemma (Park) is a nun in training when one day, a man tells her to pretend to be her twin brother, Go Mi Nam. She refuses, but fates has her deciding to accept. Hwang Tae Kyung is reluctant to accept him and makes her sing. She sings a church hymn that has Kyung accepting him/her in the band. Fate decided to be crueler to her by having her screw up everything that has to do with Kyung. To make things worse, Shin Woo knows she's a girl and now so does Kyung, Jeremy is the only one missing half of his brain (LOL). But Go Mi Nam (er..) has decided she will stay no matter what, because her brothers dream was to find their mother.

This is too funny! It's really cute and Kyung is so freaking hot!!! He gets so paranoid over her, it's too funny to watch. He gets into all kinds of bad situation because of her... so hillarious. You still have a chance to catch this series, as it's still airing.

Not rating this one yet.

All of these series you can find by heading over to Mysoju and for the OST for "Take care of the young Lady" head over My Sugoi

Inuyasha & FMA: Brotherhood

2009-10-05T01:35:58Z

I'm happy to announce that I watched the first episode of the new season of Inuyasha!!! This season hopefully marks the end of Inuyasha. I followed Inuyasha for a long time now and I hope this marks the end.

Also on a very sad note, FMA: Brotherhood episode 26 is out and things are unraveling. I loved the first version of FMA. It was good, this one... I cry too damn much! It's too sad and depressing, but yet I can't stop watching it, it's damn good.

In this episode Ed and Lin are trying to get out of Gluttony and Ed comes with a plan to get them safely through, while traveling back to the door, he sees a lone figure sitting there with long hair... at first I thought that must be Ed, but it wasn't... just thinking about it, I well up. It's Alphonse.

That was one sad moment... that tops all the sad moments in FMA and Hughes death was first. This damn anime better end soon!

Ponyo

2009-09-30T00:02:45Z

Hayao Miyazaki's Ponyo!!!

I saw this movie recently (big Hayao Miyazaki fan) and I must say that Howl's Moving Castle is still his best one (my opinion, Castle in the Sky comes second).

I found Ponyo very charming and adorable, but sometimes it dragged (no dialogue). The artwork is amazing (duh) and love the characters. Miyazaki is a genius!!! If you haven't watched Ponyo yet, I suggest you do.

If you missed what the story is about... Ponyo is a goldfish who wants freedom, swims ashore and meets a boy. She then longs to become human to be with the little boy. No drama, just a sweet story.

My New Tattoo

2009-09-14T01:50:03Z

I got my second tattoo yesterday. My uncle is a tattoo artist so it's convenient XD

I got it on my wrist... that sucker hurt like mad! My first one didn't hurt, but this one... holy moly! It didn't take long, but when it heals, I have to go to fix some of it.

It's characters from tokidoki, well as close as it could get 'cuz my wrist is tiny, but looks awesome!

Here it is:

San Nicolas Branch

2009-09-02T00:16:23Z

Today was my first day at the Aruba Bank's San Nicolas branch. I had an adventure getting to work (took the wrong bus, so had an extra 15 min. trip... oops). It's a nice place. Customer friendly (so far) and the people there are nice. Had another adventure getting back home (got on the right bus though). It was OK. I can now say I've worked at ALL the branches (wo0o0o0o0). Can't wait for my car to get ready!!!

Also if you want to listen to good music, I advise you to listen to 98 rock on iTunes. Love that station and the presenters (if you call them that) are really cool to listen to and can talk shit.

Anime Line-up DEF!!! gonna watch

2009-08-30T17:49:53Z

OK right now there are no good anime's out there for me to watch. Most are targeted for guys and the girls are left hanging. My fave ones ended or are on a break (damn you FMA!!!) and Bleach has gone to filler mode (AGAIN!).

Anyways the anime line-up that are coming up are so yummy!!!! I can not wait! Hope they get subbed QUICKLY!

Nodame Cantabile OVA

Miracle Train: Ooedo-sen e Youkoso

Darker than Black: Ryuusei no Gemini

Gekijouban Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works

I'm most excited for Darker than Black! WooooooT!!!

Blood: The Last Vampire

2009-08-24T05:03:51Z

I saw this movie last night... OMG!! It SUCKED!!!!

The beginning was good, then she went to the military base and everything went to shit. The girl Alice just pissed me off. She was an annoying pest that could have been left out. Next was the "blood suckers" (holy shit, the special effects sucked!) the "blood suckers" were ugly as hell (that's the point) but really badly done. I think they could have come up with something better had they watched Blood+ (the Chiropterans are better done in the anime). Oh let's not forget to mention the epic battle between Saya and Onigen. Well it sucked. Onigen did the "I am your mother" thing and then Saya just killed her. Easy as 1, 2 & 3. The ending... well we see a buzzed Alice in interrogation. Instead of conjuring up a story, she tells them the truth and she looks like someone on a powerful drug... it was bad.

The fighting scenes were alright and it was gory (fake blood spurting everywhere!) as there were people being blown apart. It was really idiotic.

I think the problem lies with the movie being done in English and having an American cast. I didn't see the anime version of this. I only saw Blood+ and if they did a story similar to Blood+ this would have been a good movie.

Fairy's in my room

2009-08-17T23:13:48Z

OK, it's confirmed. There's a fairy in my room and it steals my things. That's the only possible explanation! I notice that a lot of things are disappearing from my room and I can't find them! I suspect foul play!

So with this, I kindly ask the fairies to please return my missing items back to me.

Thank you.

The Black Dagger Brotherhood

2009-08-09T16:50:48Z

I can't believe I haven't written about this amazing series!!! I'm such a bad fan!

I was first introduced to the Brotherhood last year when I saw a copy of Dark Lover and Lover Awakened at my book store. After reading Dark Lover which is the first in the series, I had to have more. When I went to Miami last year, I bought 2 more books and later ordered the ones I was missing.

The Black Dagger Brotherhood was created by JR Ward (she is such an amazing storyteller) and she's still busy with the arc. Her new book Lover Avenged has been released (but it's in hardcover, I'm waiting for it to be released in paperback).

The brotherhood is about a band of vampire brothers who are at war with Lessers who are trying to extinct their race. The plots are about each brother and their dark secrets, powers, their love and the war. Each book is about a brother. They are eight in total. Wrath, Darius, Rhage, Zsadist, Phury, Vishous, Tohrment and the newly introduced brother Dhestroyer.

Dark Lover - Book 1
Wrath, the only purebred vampire, the king of the race and leader of the brotherhood has a score to settle with the Lessers after they kill off one of his brothers. Beth, a human who doesn't fit in finds her self tangled with Wrath and the brotherhood and a passion that threatens to consume them both.

Lover Eternal - Book 2
Rhage, the deadliest weapon of the brotherhood who carries a curse cast upon him by the Scribe Virgen gets tangled up with a Mary Luce, a human who doesn't have much long to live.

Lover Awakened - Book 3
Zsadist is a savage, is filled with hatred and dead inside. After rescuing Bella, a vampire aristocrat he is consumed with a need to be with her, but his past is still an open wound.

Lover Reveled - Book 4
Buth O'neal, he's a former cop and now a part of the brotherhood. After rescuing a civilian he falls into a dark power by the hand of the Omega. With a love that can never be Butch is determined to find out what happened to him even if it costs him his life.

Lover Unbound - Book 5
Vishous, ruthless and a genius has the ability to see the future and has cursed hand that destroys anything it touches. After a mortal injury puts him in the care of a human surgeon, his emotions comes awake, but his future is one that can not include her.

Lover Enshrined - Book 6
Phury has sacrificed a lot in his life. After losing Zsadist, his twin all those years ago and later finding him half dead, Phury has gone through an emotional turmoil and now has taken a over the role of the male who will be the one to sire the brotherhood bloodline. Cormia, the chosen not only wants his body, but for him to open his heart to her.

The Black Dagger Brotherhood - An Insider's Guide
It has biography of all the brothers, interviews, deleted scenes etc. (I'm reading this one now).

I was caught of guard with this series. It's much more deep and erotic. Each book shocks you with a discovery and leaves you wanting more. How she keeps up with them beats the hell out of me, but she's a genius. In book 1 we find out about Wrath, he saw his parents getting killed when he was young, he doesn't want anything to do with taking over the throne, only after meeting Beth (daughter of Darieus) does he want to rule, only if she's by his side. Everything ends peachy in this book.

Book 2 we get up close and personal with Rhage and his inner demon (literally). We also see Zsadist battling an attraction to Bella and the introduction of John, he's a descendant of Darius and he has gone through a lot, he's mute. This book is the most tragic of them all. Wellsie, Tohrment's mate gets killed, the lessers abduct Bella and Tohr's nowhere to be found. Even though Rhage and Mary find their happy ending, the book ends with Zsadist desperately trying to find Bella.

Book 3 continues with Zsadist finding Bella. She loves him so much but he keeps turning away and pushes Phury, his twin unto Bella. Zsadist starts bonding with her and he reveals his past and starts moving forward. This book shows how badly Phury is hurt emotionally. He uses drugs, but they are moderate.

Book 4 is what confused me. Butch is abducted by the Lessers and has a part of the Omega put in him. He's feeling the evil all around him. With the help of Vishous's hand, he consumes the evil out of Butch. Butch start sensing Lessers and starts sucking them in (literally) and Vishous and Butch form a much stronger bond. Butch also finds out that's he's a descendant of Wrath and he goes through the transition. Marissa, an aristocrat and part of the glymera falls in love with Butch, but with all going on with Butch, she needs to decide if she want to stay with him. Also John's getting more angry and makes friend with two key friends, Blay and Quinn. In this book Vishous is confused with what he's feeling for Butch. He doesn't know what it is, but he's battling his own inner demon and he can't see the future anymore.

Book 5 is of Vishous finding out some very dark secrets. He's saved from a mortal wound by the hand of a human surgeon. He takes her captive and makes her take care of him. She starts falling for him. John gets targeted at the training center all the time, but this time it has gone to far and Quinn steps in and kills or mortally injures the attacker. Since John is part of Wrath's family and the son of his beloved friend, Wrath makes Quinn and Blaylock John's bodyguards as to protect Quinn. Blay who has gone through the transition in book 4 finds out of the feelings Quinn has for him. Vishous finds out that his mother is none other than the Scribe Virgin (yikes!). Jane finds herself in an accident and mortally wounded. As a gift to his son the Scribe Virgin brings Jane back, but she's kinda like here and not. The Scribe Virgin has sacrificed her birds for Jane. So each day, week or so Vishous brings a bird back to the Scribe Virgin (so touching!)

Book 6 is about Phury and his demons. He has an amputated leg after saving Zsadist from the master. He starts using much more and is an emotional disaster. He can't mate with Cormia, even though he has to since he's the one who will sire all the brotherhood's race. He tries to kill himself. John goes through the transition, but can't mate (understandable). They meet an old friend who brings them back Tohrment. It's a very sad moment for John. Finally Phury gets over his turmoil and the chosen gets disbanded.

But there is so much still to come. What's going to happen to Tohr, John. Will we find out what he really is? So much questions!!!! Can't wait!!!!!

This is the longest post I've ever done!

Beauty Tortures

2009-07-29T23:15:28Z

OK so today I spent some more money on beauty supplies. Being a woman sure is hard! Today I bought a foot cream, a foot scrub, a new foundation, a mask, cuticle remover and some nail art stickers. The day before I bought vitamins, advil, a nail strengthener and a product to fix face discoloring. Beauty sure is harsh.

I'm into nail arts, so taking care of my nails is important. I bought a strengthener "esmalte endurecedor" (spanish) and it's a product from Colombia. A friend recommended it to me. It strengthens your nails and make them feel just like gel. The cuticle remover is also a good product. It's from "Sally Hansen" and it's called "Problem Cuticle Remover". You use it twice a week and it gets rid of your cuticle problems.

For my face I use Neutrogena products. I use the facial cleaner, the scrub, the toner and now I bought the mask. Hopefully it will reduce some breakouts from appearing. I don't use the toner anymore. I noticed a break out a lot when I use the toner. I bought some wipes from Nivea.

I have some feet calluses so I need to use a foot cream and stuff. I bought an Avon one but that one's used up, so today I bought one from Sally Hansen. It's a foot creme.

So being a woman sure is though. I'm also swallowing advil like mad (damn periods). So see you later. I'm going to finish doing my nails.

Visit your local drugstore for these products. Not too expensive and not too cheap and good products.

FMA Brotherhood

2009-07-29T01:19:46Z

Well a couple of months back I did review of the new FMA. Today I watched episode 17. I have to say I hate, hate and really really hate Mustang. He's such a dick! Spoilers****

They killed off Hughes early in the season (I always bawled up at the episode or the mention of his name) and Mustang is desperately trying to find the culprit. Lust and envy (or is it wrath?) find out that he's investigating so they throw Maria Ross under the bus so to speak. We all know Lust took Maria's form so now they are accusing her of murdering Hughes. She's in prison and Mustang enlisted the help of Barry the Chopper to bail her out so that he can personally kill her and... he fucking did!!!! He didn't even ask her a reason or a motive of why! He just fucking smoked her!!!! I was so shocked!

I really hate this version (I didn't read the manga so I am guessing they are following the manga) a lot of new faces are popping up and going to drag this story along. Up to episode 14 it was really good, but then episode 15 came out and we have 2 (5 in total if you count the side freaks) faces to add to the damn storyline. I'm not liking this version. Everything was perfectly done in the first FMA (my opinion). Well we'll just have to see what we have in store for the rest of this series.

~~I do hate you Mustang.~~ I wish to apologize to Col. Roy Mustang for the harsh comments I've said. Upon seeing episode 18-19, I know now of what he did and why. I really love you!!!

Buzzer Beat

2009-07-26T20:56:49Z

Yamashita Tomohisa has a new dorama!!!! By pure coincidence I went to mysoju to check out new series and there he was!!! Wo0o0o0T (not a fan of his hair).

Title: ブザー・ビート or Buzzer Beat
Broadcast: Fuji TV
Air time: Mondays at 9:00 PM
Broadcast period: 2009-Jul-13 to 2009-Sep

Sypnosis:
Kamiya Naoki is a salaryman who belongs to his company's basketball team. Despite his appearance, he is completely weak under pressure when it comes to work and romance. Although he has a girlfriend, he falls in love with a spirited and cheerful woman who is unable to be straightforward. --Tokyograph.

Cast:
Yamashita Tomohisa as Kamiya Naoki
Ito Hideaki as Kawasaki Tomoya (head coach)
Aibu Saki as Nanami Natsuki
Kitagawa Keiko as Shirakawa Riko
Kanjiya Shihori as Ebina Mai

Review
First time I'm actually catching a new Japanese series and watching it when it starts! OK this one caught me by surprise. I didn't expect it to be like this, so I'm looking forward to it. Naoki is a good basketball player (JC Arcs) who has some issues when he's under pressure. His girlfriend is on the cheerleading squad and also works for the basketball's team company. She's the good girl that everyone loves and the perfect type... far from it. She's hiding an evil personality that we're still not sure why, but she sure changed from the idiotic in Zettai Kareshi (absolute boyfriend lead actress plays Yamapi's gf). Then we have Riko. She's a violinist with bad luck. She meets the head coach of JC Arcs and he starts pursuing her. Naoki and Riko meet and thus start a triangle which I'm looking forward to.

*rubs hands together - glee* LOL!

Sob

2009-07-12T03:09:28Z

OK today I bought a new laptop. There are tons of back to school deals going on and I took the opportunity and bought one for a good price. I bought an HP Pavilion Entertainment PC (not going into details) and it comes with Vista. My old laptop had XP and I got used to XP. Vista is a whole new world and I can't get used to it. The resolution is what bugs me the most. I change it to my preference but it's so hard to see that I have to revert back to a bigger size where I can't see a damn thing!

Also if my mouse is near a link and I'm typing, it clicks the link and takes me where I don't want to go!

While I'm typing a sentence, it takes me to another line, Why, God only knows. It also highlights words. God I hate this shit.

Anyways I'm adding my backed-up files (mostly yaoi and anime) and I noticed I'm missing some yaoi files. I don't know if maybe I forgot to save them or not, but I want to cry! So I'm not really a fan of this new laptop (I want my old one back *super sob*)

I kinda figured out the typing, but not completely.

If anyone is a Vista God, please help me! *cries desperately*

I've been sick

2009-07-09T14:31:33Z

Right now I'm at home on sick leave. I contracted the flu (not swine flu, thank god) but it hit me pretty hard. I went to work on Friday feeling it. On Monday it got worse and on Tuesday I lost my voice and still my employers didn't send me home. I work as a teller at a local bank and I interact with people all day and it's a risk I might give them the flu too. I went to the doctor yesterday and confirmed I had the flu and prescribed me some medicine. My mom wanted me to stay at home one more day. Getting the flu sucks!!!

There's not much more to say... the coughing hurts *sob*

Updating Anime

2009-06-21T17:52:03Z

Ever since my harddisk died, I fell behind everything. Since I'm using my mom's PC, it's kinda hard to do. Today I said "enough" and started updating anime's I've left behind. So on a Sunday I'm downloading.

Happy Father's day to all the father's out there.

Sick of Twilight crap

2009-06-14T18:30:12Z

I'm sick, ill, dying and about to strangle myself if I see anything that has to do with New Moon/Twilight crap. What is the big deal? It's so lame and all the hype has to do with the main characters and they look like they are both high all the time. No one even heard of the books when the movie came out and then everyone quickly went and bought the book. That's just really lame. The new trailer for the sequel... stupid! Very stupid. I just wanted to vent.

Watch something worthwhile like Toy Story or an even better vampire movie, Underworld. There are tons so much better than that crap.

Finally, a layout I am in love with

2009-06-10T04:10:24Z

Over the years, my lj has gone through so many layout changes and has left me with a bitter taste. I poured through sites and blogs just to find the perfect layout for me. I've played around with so many codings that all I'm seeing at the moment are margins, pixels and padding o0

Anyways finally, thanks to ljlayouts.org I finally found a coding to play with and that I actually love.

The background image belongs to a popular Korean brand or shop (not so sure) called "Fantastyle" by Phil, K and I changed her hair color. She's too blond and I am not (hehe). The words are in Japanese and it means "I love you bear" (I used babelfish translator, so not 100% sure of the translation). I'm trying to fix the subject text so it matches the entry, but I'll play with it tomorrow. I'm sleepy.

So I'm super happy.
