Sunday:

Church. After, we visited our grandma and then had dim sum at Fortune (in Oakridge). Then drove home. I forgot to do some Christmas browsing at my dad's store... now I might not get the shoes I want. -_-; And the rest of the day was a blur.



Monday:

Jo called again. Her call woke me up. I thought I'd be able to drive her because the car was available but I said I'd tell her later. My mom came back a bit later with lunch (a late lunch -- @ 2) from Parker Place. Relaxed for the rest of the day and completely forgot about the dinner that night. A bit before 6, Eleanor calls me to comfirm. I realize my dad's not back from work and my mom's still here = no available car. However, we somehow planned a way for all of us to go at the end. My mom dropped me off at Eleanor's place, greeted by Dubi/Duby/Dooby/Doobi (I can't remember how to spell his name ;D) barking his head off at me. Didn't realize how scary he his, considering I haven't seen him in ages. I find Jo inside at Elie's computer. Soon later Helen comes with her ride and changes before we leave. We arrive at Cactus Club to find Angus at the door, waiting for people to get there. We all went in to find more people we don't know (at least for Jo and me). We took our seats and I sat across Mainland China-looking girl that sat beside Helen, which sat across from Jo. Throughout the dinner, Jo and I talked with each other, listening to the other conversations going on with the other people. The girl that sat across from me started to get really annoying as the night went on. She first asked Helen was school we went to. And the next thing you know, she tries to make conversation by asking where we were born but I pretend I'm busy eating... which I actually was. Instead she goes and asks Elie. It's more irritating than it seems. Is she trying to say she's smarter than us AND she's a friggin self-proclaimed 'honger' and believes we don't know any other language besides English? Then she thinks she knows Taiwanese but doesn't know how to utter a single word. We watched hockey and wresting and was kept amused by the chiefs in the kitchen. Ah, too much detail. After dinner, we went to Gelatos and found crappy parking. No one bought anything, which was stupid. Then we headed off to e-spot. Once again the self-proclaimed 'honger' in the other car claimed she knew where it was but then ended up having Gibson lead the way. We played a few games when we got there, (the best had to be Jo playing Fist of the North Star punching game), while the other crew played pool. We headed off to the airport afterwards to pick up some friend of Gibson's from Ottawa at 11:30pm. Jo and I wandered around the dead airport most of the time by ourselves.



Tuesday:

I forced myself to stay home.



Wednesday:

Silent Night. Was hoping I'd say home all day. Was playing ffxi until Mike /tell's me there to watch a honger movie at his place. Soon after, Jo calls to tell me the same thing. I agreed to come out and watch it, considering they said it was a good movie. After a delicious roast beef dinner (Christmas style) at home, they come pick me up. We got ourselves some bbtea before we watched the movie. It turns out the movie was Internal Affairs(!!) the first and the second. They should have told me earlier what the chinese name was so I could bring them a better version on VCD/DVD instead of VHS. Anyways, the first movie was great. The second one was so-so. The only thing good about the second one was Shawn Yue (pictures at Jo's page. He's awfully cute. ;)



Today I woke up to the sound of loud chatter outside my bedroom door. It was my parents talking with my bro. My mom gave me her present, to find a fleece Old Navy bag. O_O Somewhat surprising but quite the nice bag though. And that's pretty much all the presents for now. ;D Oh, from my bro the HDD a while back. And good stuff tonight?

Busy, busy day.



My cellphone woke me up. Jo called to tell me that Eleanor just picked her up. That would mean I had about 10 mins to get ready. So I did, after I don't know how long, she called again to tell me they arrived. I last minute dug around for my bag and phone and then realized it might be that time of the month, so I had to get stuff for that as well. When I was finally done, we set off to Shabusen. We headed down to park underground to find there was an empty parking space just for us. Blocking the exit was a giant green van. Inside contained a family of ugly and giddy little Taiwanese (I think? :P). When we were trying to park, the girl in the passenger seat couldn't stop laughing for some reason. I was really irritated because: 1) she's laughing (at us) 2) I'd like to see her trying to park in such a tight area 3) she's ugly! Anyways, after we parked they parked into a spot that wasn't a parking spot that blocked the parked cars of some other people. And I purposely loudly said "They're stupid to park there." to see if they'd do anything, and apparently they didn't. We went up and got our seats and ordered lunch boxes. Unluckily, the other family was seated right beside us. Besides the greasy salad, the food was great. However, the old woman and the girl beside us kept glancing at us. We were disturbed throughout the whole meal. Oh yeah, Eleanor owes me money.



We rushed to 5th Avenue Cinemas to catch the 115 show of Love Actually. When we got in, the movie had already started. The movie didn't turn out as good as we all expected/wanted. Not everyone ended up happy in the movie but the Carl in the movie was hot. :D



There were some ski wear Jo and Elie needed to get, so we headed off to the new Sport Chek where Felicity and Helen worked at. The place was huge and busy. They looked for pants and jackets and ended up buying a few things. Then I had to fly home and get ready for the christmas dinner at church.



I wanted to change into something nice but due to the lack of time, I couldn't do squat. We got there, had really strange food that was handed out to us instead of self-served like last year. I wanted to have some sort of mochi some tables had but there weren't any left at the end. I felt bad for not helping out like the rest of the crew were so I piled up some chairs and tables at the end. The actual program was filled with skits and lots of singing. The old man sitting beside me was creeping me out because he kept looking up and down at me. The old woman behind me kept talking and laughing and omfg I wanted to turn around and shut her up. The little girl in front of me kept screwing around with the little decorations that hung around the benches, mutating some of them. And the mother just watched her mess with them. Grr, anger.



I was surfing around and ended up at a "Naruto Pics" site... that one site linked to another Naruto domain. And that Naruto domain linked to another Naruto domain that looks EXACTLY THE SAME. And then that EXACTLY-THE-SAME Naruto domain linked to ANOTHER EXACTLY-THE-SAME Naruto domain. What's with all the Naruto domains with all the same content and layouts? And what's with all the domains? Is it ever even necessary...? And funny how they all are affiliated with each other.



So much ranting today. I'm done.

I was going to do my chores. Of course I didn't get around to them.



The more I look at the Cagalli figure, the look cute it gets. Man, I really want to buy her a companion... that is, hopefully the next one doesn't turn out to be another girl figure, that's all.



Okay lots of ffxi leveling. An old teammate needed a whm so I joined up. The team changed a few dozen times but it was still cool. I got to 14 and everyone wanted to leave, so did I. Bah, healing sux0rz.



My bro and I decided to order from this Italian place called Gigi's something, rather, my bro seems to like. And so we did. And so we enjoyed it, even though it was rather pricy. Now I got no money to watch a movie tomorrow.. wtf am I going to do.

*tries to go back to blogging frequently*



I was awaken by a call from Mo2 to go Christmas shopping. Considering that I don't have any money in the first place and do not plan to buy anything for anyone, I wasn't too eagar to go. I haven't seen Shi2 or Mo2 for a while so I hesitantly agreed to join them. It took me a half n hour to get out of bed and another half to get ready. Then I get a call from Mo2 that she won't meet me at my place and that I'd go pick up Shi2 myself and meet them there. So we did: picked up Shi2, got to Metro, took forever to park underground and met Mo2 and Boom in the mall. Boom wanted to buy a new cellphone so we went to Cellular Baby first. When we got there, the girl at the counter ignored us. We asked a few questions concerning the cellphone he wanted and she just gave us attitude. After the brief conversation she turned around and continued flirting with the guy she was talking with earlier. That ruined our day completely. We wanted to smack that bitch around a bit. =|



Anyways, we walked around and looked at some stores. Went to the Crystal afterwards. Mo2 and Shi2 both got mango bubble tea. Since I was going to have dinner soon, I leeched off a few gulps sips. We checked out a new novalty shop that sold models, anime-related stuffers, etc. We fell in love with the morbid bear that was covered in blood. I still don't remember its name. We saw lots of good stuff at rather reasonable prices (that we could afford) but didn't get anything. We had to constantly ask for prices for things because they lacked price tags. Next time, I'll get myself a Gundam Seed calender for 04. :E And maybe the bloody bear...



Next, we visited Sakura Media. Nothing special. Sale my ass.



Last but not least we visited our favourite hobby shop. I wanted to waste money so I bought a HaroKapu (Haro Capsule, methinks). To my disappointment I got Cagalli. I'll have to buy another one next time though.. grr, I'm determined to get a character I want. Not saying I don't like Cagalli though... neither do I like her. Her pink gundam. It disturbs me.



Got home and went out for dinner. Had some expensive dinner at a Hotpot place. Winnie Kam (from elementary)'s mom recognized me and sorta had a convo with me. She constantly asked why I didn't keep in touch with her.. but I didn't know what to say. Not my fault Winnie sees me and doesn't say jack.



Bah, I'm tired. Didn't find any same level ranged guys at La Theine in ffxi... Made me sleepy, running around the lake a few dozen times and finding only tough turds lurking around. Ah, it's tedious leveling up low level jobs.

I return with a new layout.. whee~



The layout looks kinda different from my usual. And you'd ask "Where are all teh Japanese charas?" I don't know... they went for vacation, ya. Enjoy the change. I sure do. Kinda crapped up job though.



So.. stuff.



Stuff like..



- Sally's birthday was hotpot at mike's place. good stuff.

- Registered for Marketing and Psychology next semester. Wooo...

- My marks for this semester really suck... FUCK MY LINGUISTICS AND MY JAPANESE TEACHER TO HELL.

- I STUDIED LINGUISTICS SO DAMN MUCH TOO...!

- Matrix 3 was a disappointment. Silly friends were crying over it though.. boo.

- Went to the States for a one day shopping trip with family. Very good. We rented a mini van (cuz my bro wanted to? :D).. roomy and very enjoyable.

- Got a jumbo box of Gogurt = Good.

- Pat Duong's birthday, on the last day of finals, aka. the gathering was fun. Got to see lots of old faces. Eleanor bumped into a waiter who was actually a CUTE friend. Flirty, flirty~

- Watched the first TeniPuri Musical. I love Inui now, lol. So hot~

- Went to Daiso. Teh greatest 100yen store EVAR! Well $2 here, but great junk stuff that you'd DIE to BUY but its so DAMN USELESS and you KNOW IT XD...

- The Last Samurai was teh BOMB! Our "Japanese Legolas"! Ohohoho~ Made me cry which was quite the rare event.

- Filled out Zeller's application form. Never handed it in. Never will.

- Bro got a shuttle with damn good specs. Envy. Reminds me I have no money and I need money.

- Mike made me a fan out of an old one. Now my computer doesn't kill pigs.

- Bro bought me a 120gig HDD for X'mas. Surprised me. Can't install it yet. I need space. Out of CDs.

- I hate school. A lot.

- KimiNozo is still intense. Mitsuki must win. Die Haruka.

- Hoshi Souichirou doesn't get Joshua's role in Chrno Crusade. Depressing. Neither did Kawasumi Ayako get a part. Pfft. Yippie for Ishida.... I.. guess. PoT's Ryoma/Udeden's Shuugo seiyuu gets Joshua... that's twisted.

- LotR:RotK today. Mom wanted me to drive her to work... couldn't of course because of the movie. Felt bad. Got there, everyone was late. 12 and 1:30 showtimes soldout. Bought 2:30. Had food, went and did a little shopping. IBers are strange. Watched movie. Butt sore. Very good. Had fried chicken for dinner.

- Obsessed with FFXI for the past month. Have no life now. Determined to promote the Unicorn server. My brother is also sadly obsessed. More than me. Does nothing but play.

- Christmas break.

TeniPuri Musical

0 comments

Ah~ just finished watching the first TeniPuri Musical! I LOVED IT!

It followed pretty much the same storyline and ended with Ryoma becoming a regular (how many episodes is that in the anime and how many chapters in the manga? :D)...Most of the characters fit their part, just a few bothered me:

Ryoma was adorable (OF COURSE! XD),
Tezuka had very volumed hair and his voice wasn't deep enough, Oishi looked funny close up (lol@his two strands of hair at the front),
Fuji was just *EEEEE KIMURAAAA <3<3<3* (not to mention he had the biggest fanbase aka. loudest girl screams),
Kaidoh was Kaidoh,Inui was CUTE XD I have a completely different view of him now lol!! *drools over him -- or at least the actor*,
Kikumaru was frickin' chubby,Momo-chan-sempai's voice really sounded like Momo himself,
Taka was hilarious,
I never knew Horio has a unibrow.

(I hope someone goes and rips the second one with Fudomine...)
