Yes sir! Lately, me and my guys have been helplessly addicted to frisbee! It’s a game that you don’t need to be an expert at to enjoy. All you need is a decent stamina and off you go! It’s really fun, you should try it! 
Meanwhile, we have finally started creating a website for our project/competition entry. How was it? F*** it. I can’t believe it’s so damn hard to create a website. OMG please help us. Especially to all ActionScript 3.0 or Adobe Flex (MXML/XML with integrated GSM abilities, SQL/PHP, CSS/HTML), I need your help in coding parts of our website. Please? Thanks in advance. ^^
Consequently therefore, I failed to win at my NaNoWriMo endeavors once again, but that doesn’t disappoint because I actually enjoyed it. I will still keep writing when I have time because I enjoyed writing it. When it’s out, you better read it. ^^
Well, so long for now. Still waiting for that new Jyukai album. n_n

Final Verdict: A must have for Shinkai and Tenmon fans like me. Surely, I gotta have one! ><
*****************************************************************
Also, it seems like Jyukai will FINALLY be releasing their next album, Stairway to the future~. The date that you must mark on your calendars – January 20, 2010. You don’t know the patience that we, Jyukai fans, have endured just to finally listen to their exceptional music once again. *love*
It’s a ”CD-best” album that will feature their all-time greats to brand new songs.
Pre-orders are available now. I really can’t wait! ^^
News anyone? November 10, 2009

I’m in desperate need of Jyukai’s latest updates, especially whether or not they will have a new single released or not. Onegaishimasu! Arigatou ne.
Jyukai all the way! Manami!! <3
In any case, the first two days of the semester is not living up to my expectations – it exceeded them! I thought it’s gonna be real difficult and tiring and all, but guess what, it’s an understatement! Holy crap. Will have to strive harder and build up more patience as soon as possible. Ja ne.

Earlier this day, I went to school to register for the second semester. Lo and behold, it would be one of the worst days of my life since I could remember.
- I arrived early at the enlistment class and just when the personnel printed my assessment form, it ended up an eternity for me. I waited for a VERY VERY long time! Other students have come and go, and yet there’s still no sign of my printed form! It took me more than 15 minutes before finally getting my hands on my form. (Stress O’ Meter: 20%)
- Just when we are about to enlist in our classes, I found out there are actually 3 conflicts in the department class schedules! Not 1, not 2, but 3! Until now, it’s not yet fixed BS! (Stress O’ Meter: 60%)
- I lined up for the payment of tuition TWICE! And it’s not even my fault! FK! (Stress O’ Meter: 85%)
- I lined up for the ID Validation, only to find out that the line was not supposed to be there in the first place. So I had to line up again! (Stress O’ Meter: 90%)
- I had a three game losing streak in FIFA.
(Stress O’ Meter: 95%)
I just hope this sem will be as good, if not better, than the my last semester.
In any case, I also joined NaNoWriMo, and so far, my progress has been great (mainly because there are still no classes YET). I’m writing a little bit of fantasy-reality this time, but still slice-of-life/romance type. When I get the time to publish it again, please do read it. Comments highly appreciated. My last year experience was great, although I did not win. But this time, I’ll make sure it’ll be a WIN.
Anime-wise, I can’t find the motivation to finish Spice and Wolf 2, so yeah, I think I’m on the brink of dropping it. But “motivatedly” I will still watch White Album S2, Kimi ni Todoke, and Kobato. That’s for sure.
Sports-wise, the Phillies are fighting for their lives and I do hope they pull themselves together before the world witnesses another Yankee Championship. I’m getting tired of it. Utley for 3 HR in one inning yeah! Sevilla will have their UCL match later so yah, a win will secure their place in the last 16. Their table position is not so bad too, so I hope they continue it and improve even more. However, Aston Villa and Tottenham are not really performing well. Let’s hope they improve greatly sooner and later. Atlanta Hawks are in good form, but much to my demise, the Hornets aren’t. What a great disappointment. 
Also, I’m currently trying to play Kioku no Kakera in the piano. My goal before the this semester ends is to be able to play Toki wo Kizamu Uta. It’s very difficult, but I hope I get to pull it off. Looks like I’m also interested in playing Chiisana te no Hira, so we’ll see.
FIFA ‘10 and NBA 2k10 are out in the stores now, so I hope I could play them real soon.
Jyukai, where art thou? I’m still waiting for your next singles. :[
Well, I’ll be busy writing my novel now: Princess of the Night. Please do look forward to it. Ja ne!

Onegai!!…
Arigatou gozaimasu!

It’s already been 4 effin’ weeks.. That’s right! A month! . . . Since I last played my keyboards. I hate it, I hate it, I hate it! Somebody please fix it! Good thing that it is still covered by the warranty, but my parents still won’t have it repaired.. Gosh! I’m missing it badly! I need my eye-hand coordination practiced again. I need to listen to the product of my hardwork, patience, and perseverance. I need to listen to the tunes of my black and white keys! Please.. I want to listen to my music again.. :’[
If I get it back, I am sooooo gonna use it! Will play the Clannad tracks. I (also) miss it badly..
I’m also waiting for the release of the most-awaited anime-movie yet.. Makoto Shinkai’s fourth monumental production. I haven’t got any news yet as to what it’s about nor the date of its release. All I know is that he went to London for a vacation. I suppose he got his inspiration there. (He eventually went back to Japan I think). So, I assume that it’s about distance again.
Either way, anyway, I would love to be one of the thousands who can/may have the privilege to watch it (and understand it). I am so looking forward to it.
Also, I haven’t been watching anime lately, so I’m getting left behind. Well, I do watch FMA: Brotherhood and Tears to Tiara. But what I miss the most are the likes of Clannad, Footprints in the Sand, Myself; Yourself, Sola, A Tale of Memories, etc… Let’s get those emotions pumping!
Anyone got any news from Jyukai? Manami? Dewa? ANYTHING? I’m starving for a new song from them… Really, if you listen to their music, it’s nearly impossible to not like it, and then love it.. Damn.. My soul can’t stop searching for the things I’ve lost… Really, I need them all back!
I’m still here.. Hoping that when I wake up one day, my fate was changed…
And one thing, Don’t let your academics get in the way of your life. Really, when you grow up, people NEVER EVER care what grades did you get while you were still in school. It’s your personality and interests that matter. It’s how YOU shaped your life SO FAR. Start living the dream.

~Hanamuke no Merodii,
Hi. It’s been a while since I’ve written on ya. I just want to say that being on vacation is a blast! Half truth, half lie. Haha. But what matters most is that I got my much needed rest. It was way too quiet in the province than in the city. But I still felt the holidays and the yuletide season. And now? It’s gone.. XD Back to reality… Aaaargh.
Meanwhile, Aston Villa, Sevilla, and Fiorentina remained at the top four of their respective leagues! ^^ (all 4th to be precise, haha) However, I really hope that Ashley Young won’t go to Real Madrid. I also hope that Tottenham, Schalke, Werder Bremen, and Roma all move a little higher in their respective league tables.
In the NBA, the Atlanta Hawks and the New Orleans Hornets are doing quite well in their respective conferences. Mike Bibby has somehow retained his Sacramento days while Chris Paul is still IMO the best PG in the league right now.
I also played Personal 2: Eternal Punishment the whole vacation long. Haha. It’s actually a good PS1 RPG game that is as enjoyable as Suikoden II. I really recommend it to all gamers and RPG enthusiasts. In line with this, I will soon watch Persona [anime].
As for anime, I will ASAP catch up with Clannad: After Story, Chaos;Head, and Ef: A Tale of Melodies. I will also watch Perfect Blue and Paranoia Agent. Argh so many things to watch with so little free time at hand. XD
As for my novel, I will continue writing it, but not as dedicated as before. I will update chapters indefinitely now, because of my hectic schedule. XD Probably a chapter a week, at most 2 or 3. It depends upon the situation really. At least for now, Lonely Road has already reached 16 chapters. I’m very happy for that. ^^
I bought myself the best Christmas present to myself this yuletide season – a new keyboard! ^^ It’s absolutely wonderful and I like it. Though it’s just Casio, I still love it. ^^ I can finally finish playing One More Time, One More Chance and Your Hand in Mine. I think I’ll finish River Flows in You as well. ^^ Yeah! Good luck to me!
Also, I’m still waiting for the next releases of Jyukai and/or Aimmy. ^^ Sigh.. Manami has such a wonderful voice. I just don’t get tired listening to her the whole day!
OMG. She's so beautiful... ^^
The Choice – Nicholas Sparks
A wonderful, heart-melting, touching story written yet again by Nicholas Sparks. In case you don’t know him, he is the writer of Message in A Bottle, The Notebook, and A Walk to Remember – all played in major motion pictures. It answers the ultimate question of “How far would you go in the name of love.”
A story about young love but adult persons, I never thought that I’d enjoy reading it. At first, I thought it was just a plain story-telling adventure of a man in search of love. But as the chapters progress, it amazes me more and more. And I mean, more! It is unbelievably, wonderfully told! Really a page-turner. I couldn’t imagine I could shed a tear by reading a book.
I recommend it to people of all ages. ^^
Merry Christmas! December 18, 2008

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Only a week from now and we’ll be celebrating the birth of Christ. Cheers to all! The day that we’ve been waiting for is finally here. However, 364 days we have waited; 24 hours it will last. ><
In lieu of this, my blogs will be undergoing its much needed rest as well (~Hanamuke no Merodii, Lonely Road) for about two weeks.
As I return back here on January 4, 2009 (weeee, a new year!), I will review the book that I will read + chapter updates of Lonely Road.
Enjoy the holidays! =)
P.S. Listen to the song Winter Song by Jyukai. Obviously, the theme is Christmas. Really cute. ^^
Plus! Here’s a Christmas Emotion for all of you, especially made by the NBA. Enjoy! ^^

I swear the first time I heard the full version of this song, i shed a tear. I missed her song and her voice. Oh Manami, please continue to dazzle us with that unsurpassed resounding voice of yours. ^^
