World Cyber Games



Last Saturday was the World Cyber Games event and my friends and I decided to attend.
We already anticipated the fact that there weren't that many cosplayers in that convention but we still insisted in coming. We didn't actually stay in the con area all day, we roamed all around the mall of Asia and just took a few pics from the places that we passed and went to. It was still fun, even without the cosplay and anime excitement in the usual conventions that we go to. It feels really nice to get to be with friends after all.

It's been a long time since Umi, I and Aki got together for a con. During the last anime con, Mangaholix, we weren't able to actually enjoy the event as a group because we were all scattered. And during the WCG, it felt like the group was reunited somehow, although Yhuey wasn't present during that day. We spent the whole day chatting, checking on Comic Alley, making friends with the Comic Alley personnel and simply enjoying our little adventure. Aki still has to go home on his own to Cavite, while Umi and I had to traverse back to Laguna. For the whole day, I took three jeepney rides, two bus rides, one multicab ride and one tricycle ride. It was totally exhausting and yet totally fun as well. I look forward to the up coming Lights Out Yaoi Con this coming September.

If we enter the cospetition, it's going to be my very first experience to actually participate on a cosplay. Haha! I'll be crossplaying, Shibuya Yuuri from Kyou Kara Maou! or God(?)Save our King from Animax. He's one of my most favorite characters in all of the anime shows that I've watched. He is the lead character in this show and I really enjoy watching him and his antics. Umi will crossplay as Wolfram, the guy in blue, so we will be crossplay partners. They're both guys, thus the reason why we are entering a Yaoi con. It's going to be exciting! I've also managed to persuade my best friend, Hazel, to come with us and she's considering if she will go as Greta, Shibuya Yuuri's adopted daughter. It fits her character since Greta is also quite petite since she's only a kid.

That's it for now! Ja! Matta Ne!

I Feel Terrible...super terrible...

I had a fight with my parents over certain stuff concerning me going back to K.S.A. and my studies. I don't feel like posting anything too long today but I need to let it all out now. I feel really bad. I don't know what to do. Should I choose my studies or should I go back to Jeddah because it's a once in a lifetime opportunity? Obviously, this concerns me, however, I don't feel like I'm part of the problem. It feels more like I'm the problem itself.

In the past, I don't do well in school. I get failing marks and I often prefer to just sit and do nothing to studying. But now that I enjoy everything, it suddenly feels like my parents want to deprive me the chance to study. Do I really not deserve anything? In the past days that I've felt this way, I even wonder how I go on. I'm not kidding when I say that sometimes, I really feel like I don't want to go on anymore. I don't want to die, because I don't want to be a quitter but I just feel so stupid right now. My feelings aren't that helpful anyway. It doesn't matter to anyone.

Lazy Jane...

After a few weeks since the classes started, my so-called lazy-wave came. Basically, it's my personal term for the times when I start to feel lazy and when I prefer sleeping to actually doing anything productive. It's so unlike me to not do anything at all! I swear! I love to read, draw, write, paint, sing and a lot others, but since my lazy-waves came a bit earlier than I would've expected, I've yet to accomplish anything at all. My blogposts are not even as frequent as they used to be because of this stupid wave. Although, I do try my best to get out from this stature, I guess it would really take some time. It's a battle I must pursue by myself. No one's offering to help me anyways..lolz..
We had our school's annual Binyag Arriba about a week ago. Need I say more? Of course, I participated. Again. For the past three years that I've been studying in Letran-Calamba, I've been participating in all of the binyags that has been happening. The first during my freshman year. The second was on my sophomore year, when I was still the secretary of our program's organization. And the most recent would be this year, actually, a few days ago would be a most suitable term for that. Well, aside from actually getting wet in the morning, I also stayed the whole day in school with my pants extremely wet. Well, you can't blame me, the arriba spirit never fails to mesmerize me each time this event comes. If I'm fortunate enough, I'd join the next one as well. It's really fun!

The Long Awaited Post

bloody hell...

The schedule was yesterday and today. We really wanted to go. But unfortunately, we weren't able to have a costume made. Hence, the reason why I am stuck at home today. I would've gone by myself if I could, but knowing my grandparents, I know they'd prefer it if someone was with me. So in the end, I wasn't able to go. Anyway, at least I went to SM Sta. Rosa and got to buy my new shoes. It's completely adorable! I love it! I didn't expect Hazel, her two other sisters and her mom to be there, but it was fun. At least I was with someone the whole day.

As always, I got hooked into another song. Actually there were a lot of them this week but one of them got to the top of my list this week. It's the song A world to believe in. Originally, it was sang as a solo in Celine Dion's album Taking Chances and then they made another version of the song. This time Celine Dion sang with one of her Japanese friends and one of my favorite Jpop singers, Ito Yuna. She's really great. She's actually Japanese but she looks somewhat American because she grew up in Hawaii. The song is really powerful. It's like Celine Dion is only singing as a back up for Ito Yuna. But hell, they were great. The blending was amazing and the song translations from English to Japanese was absolutely astounding. I really loved the song that I downloaded both the video and the song itself.


Anyway, school started last Thursday, June 12. It's supposed to be a National Holiday, actually, but our president changed the day of the celebration to June 9. Maybe if all our former heroes heard about it, they'd rise of from their graves and run after that midget. That day is a part of our history, she can't just change it that easily. It's somewhat offensive, if you think about it.

Back to the school thingy. Well, the start of the new semester was okay. It's not really as exciting as it used to be. Although I do feel a little uncomfortable seeing that I've been used to having researches done at night then passing it in the morning. Right now, it just seems like the flow of days are so slow. It's like everyone is in lazy mode or something. Anyway, I will still do my best! Gambarimasuyo!! I'll become a dean's lister come what may!

me and my friends.

You just gotta love me...

One and only me

Since summer is almost over (at least the Philippine summer is) me and my friends are trying to savor the last few days before classes start again. We always do mini karaoke competitions at home and sometimes we just lounge around just for the fun of it. We barely have time for relaxing when there's school so we try to consume all our time for resting. We always do silly things and joke around while we have the time.

Imagine a world with camera phones and pictures. Everyone will be sad without us


For today, I got this for my daily horoscope in my friendster account:

"Today, you'll have fun if you give your worries a rest. Focus on all the good stuff."


Sleepy people need cuddly stuff such as Spongebob and Ryoma Echizen

It's kinda real.I'm not much of a horoscope person but I find the ones from Friendster very amusing so I tend to post it sometimes. Maybe you've notic Worries aside, resting is the best choice. I've been stressing myself the whole summer so I really need to have some alone time or some barkada time so I can at least relax a bit. The frustration of not being able to go to Saudi Arabia really got into me since I really worked hard so that I could go there. I wasted a lot of time and effort just so I could fix my papers and still I wasn't able to go. I think it's only right that I get to rest.
