Wiping My Memory

Friday, February 6th, 2004

The memory will die now. It will die. It must die. It does not exist. It cannot happen. It is impossible. The world is cold and I must follow. No one cares about me. No single person bothers me about my life. Nobody gives an ass about me. Therefore no single individual deserves my attention and care.

She will pass my memory in peace, just as the flowers of the cherry blossom tree falling to the ground in the gentle breeze. All is quiet. Peaceful. Silent. She’s lost in my memory. To forget…to forget. Forgetting is easy but getting over it is harder. She will go. She must go. She has to go.

What is this feeling that I have? I have not felt this way in a long time. Since… 4 years ago. Why? What makes helping out in the open house feel so… good? I vaguely remember helping out because I wanted to see someone… I think. But why now?

FYP vs. Anime, 0-1

Tuesday, January 27th, 2004

Been busy these few days wth FYP and ANIME! LOLz! FYP…can lah, won’t die =) Anime, too many to watch! The current anime shows that I am watching are listed below (in chronological order of when I first watched):

Chrno Crusade - 1920s. God and Order of Magdalene versus Aion and devils. And a bit of comedy too. Cool.

Maria-sama ga Miteru (The Virgin Mary Is Watching You) - Unknown era. Story about a freshie in a Christian (i don’t know if it is Catholic, Anglican, Protestant or what, cause I have no idea at all. I’m not a Christian too) all-girls school. Very peaceful feel to the show.

Diamond Dust Drops - Life of a fishmonger’s daughter. Enough said. Quite emotional and has a unique style of videography portraying emotions.

Cosprayers - Cosplay IS real (which I sincerely hope NOT - fat Yunas and meat wrapped in plastic,latex and rubber can be shown for driver’s education videos instead of the standard blood and gore). Weird concept but nice show.

Daphne in the Brilliant Blue - Girl who thinks she has it all loses it all when she tries out for a government agency job in a city surrounded by the brilliant blue - duh, its the ocean! Sad and funny both at the same time.

Mezzo DSA - Super-human robot girl Mezzo does the dirty work in the Danger Service Agency, a semi-mercenary group of professionals who can do anything.

Gokusen - A (secret) yakuza (mafia/gangster) high-school teacher teaches in an infamous high-school that churns out gangsters instead of scholars, due to bad influence from the community and in school. Quite funny and cool.

Yumeria - A 16-year old boy who has wierd dreams, wakes up with a strange girl beside him who only knows and says one word. He has a female friend who has a crush on him. The three of them have the same dream that the boy has, and they all have special powers in the “dream world”. Half-real and half-fantasy world mixed with comedy. Overall two thumbs up.

Well that’s all the time I have to blog. Gotta go sleep now.

Much Ado About Nothing

Wednesday, December 3rd, 2003

Sigh. Went to school for nothing. Nothing much to say about that.

Anyway, I picked up a copy of CBT Companion on Tuesday and Full Metal Panic Vol. 5 today. Yay! Something to read at last! Chrno Crusade is also a nice show, I just watched episode 2 today. It was much more exciting than episode 1, though I predicted that the plot would turn out this way. Still, it IS exciting to watch. And strangely Full Metal Panic Vol. 5 was very easy to read through compared to You’re Under Arrest. Speaking of which I only have one book left to complete the YUA series - book 2! Luckily I didn’t chase it so much, the book, so far as I know, is still “on order”. LOL! Sigh…and Natsumi reminds me of a person I know…its kind of weird to feel this way but given a chance, I’d be more…”supportive” of her. Still, only time - and fate - can tell.

An Errand For NP

Friday, November 14th, 2003

Wah what a busy day! First I went to BBDC with a friend to register for Basic Theory test, then came back home and ate lunch, but before I could slack at home, my friend ICQed me asking me if I wanna go Sim Lim Square with him to get quotations for the poly, so I went with him. Haha…halfway through the process I came up with the idea of impersonating a poly lecturer to get the quotation, seeing that all the shops don’t trust people much. LOL…but too bad, I wasn’t dressed up in formal attire, with sideparting too and have extra copies of namecards from lecturers. Otherwise it would have been fun!

Sigh…I sometimes wonder is fate toying with us…so many things in common…both of us at the same place at the same time but don’t see each other…

Clue of the day:
