Back with lots of good news!

nekosasu | June 30, 2007 | 2:02 pm

Back to my hikikomori days?

Tadaima! Well yeah, I just came back from my rather long week of Spain… Why long? Because it has been a very exhausting week of an average 4-hour sleep pattern with beach at daytime and disco and pubs at nighttime. Not to mention the liters of alcohol that flowed throughout the week, and the hundreds of Euros that I spent on that (I think I did lose a 50eur banknote the first night though…).

But besides the partying decadence of this week at Lloret de Mar, there was one thing that bothered all of us finalists this whole week – The outcome of the finals. The anxiety grew bigger as the days passed by, and then came the fateful day, the 28th, where the results were supposed to be out. As I was trying to recover from yet another hangover, I already heard the screams of joy of relieved people in the hallways of the hotel. I think I already mentioned in my previous entry that I didn’t want to be spoiled on my result while I was in Spain, I wanted to see the result with my own eyes. Well, after a while I gave in to the temptation and asked what it was, since everyone knew theirs and celebrated like mad. I must admit I had a bad feeling back then because I started doubting about maths and chemistry… And thus they said… Read the rest of this entry »

neko’s leaving… for a whole week

nekosasu | June 21, 2007 | 2:18 am

Once again, my procrastination habits got the upper hand. Consequence: sleepless nights.
I need sleep now, because a very tiresome week is awaiting me.

You guessed right. Once again I couldn’t just write a few lines about Claymore 11, and for 2 days have I been pondering on what to write, while watching TV alongside. I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I keep saying, “I’m going to watch this and that anime and maybe blog it” and I can’t even keep a steady schedule for ONE single series. Okay, I’m most productive right after watching the episode and until now I could never write anything because of external factors out of my control, and after that I just lose motivation. Heck, now that I got so much free time at hand I only watch Claymore and Nodame Cantabile. Or I just randomly play games, heh. I really suck at organizing my time right now. And consequently everything backlogs.

Aww, this entry is turning into a personal rant… I didn’t intend to ^^;; Well yeah, so as I had announced over a week ago, I am going to the Spanish coast, more precisely to Lloret de Mar, to celebrate the end of the finals with a lots of classmates and the other finalists. Until anything urgent or sudden happens, I will be away from the 21st in the evening to the 29th in the afternoon. Unless I don’t have internet access there, I won’t be able to write an entry. Not that anyone would care about, I could be away for a month and no one would care but I just felt like updating, just to imitate those blogs where the writer takes a leave for one or two days… “OMG WE ALL MISS YOU!!one WHERE ARE UR HI QUALITY ENTRIEZ heart heart” If a blogger feel spoken to, lol @ you.

I watched too much House tonight. Geez the sarcasm. By the way. My results will be out on the 28th or 29th… Which means I will still be on my way back from Lloret, sitting in the bus, biting my nails off, hoping for a good grade. As long as I pass straight it’s fine. However, god forbid, I will NOT let anyone spoil me on the results. I will turn off my mobile phone, I will not speak to anyone, nor will I let anyone speak to me. Heck, I won’t even look at people at all until I saw the results. Heh, and then it’ll be, I’ll have one or two retakes, and to study all of that for the next few days…
Either way. By the time I will have updated this blog, I will tell you if I passed or not. Hay or Nay…

New poll: If you were to go to Japan for the first time, what would you do first?

nekosasu | June 18, 2007 | 11:27 pm

Because I can’t find any fitting picture, I’ll just show you a picture of what I will be playing in a few minutes: Pangya. BTW, this is Hana when she hits a HIO. Too bad that animation can only be seen in season 3…

Well, I think it’s time for a new poll, the old one already lasted for one entire month, and I am quite surprised that there were so many votes! Wow… I’d never have imagined that 77 (seventy-seven!) people would take their time casting their vote on this. Compared to many other blogs, it’s still a small of a number (of course, brag all you want), but for my standards, it’s already a revolution! (last poll had only 11 votes or so…..) Thanks for voting! May you be as many to vote on the next poll! More after the jump~

Claymore Episode 10

nekosasu | June 18, 2007 | 12:16 am

Omatase shimashita! I already watched the episode right after my Claymore 09 entry, but then I had to leave, and when I came back I started playing Touhou and Pangya… Well, that’s for the best, actually. My immediate reaction being unconditional Caps Locking in some IRC channels, I don’t think I’d have been able to provide you a legible entry then. Well, now that I’m bored playing, I finally found the time to convey my feelings. Enough blabbering already.
So… The tenth episode of Claymore fully lived up to my expectations. Not only because of the massive amount of action, but also because of a very unexpected turn of events. More after the jump~

Claymore Episode 09

nekosasu | June 15, 2007 | 1:23 am

Finally proceeded with episode 9 of Claymore. After the Teresa arc, we finally return to our Clare as we knew her from the beginning. And, to my huge satisfaction, everyone was right: it’s going to be even more awesome from now on. However, I am quite surprised, if not shocked, by all the new information that I got in this episode. As it’s an old episode, I’ll omit the summary. I think this makes this post also more legible and less tl;dr ^^
