9 Finished Off By A P22

DISCLAIMER : Pun in title unintended.

Talk about school shootings. It has been quite some time seen Virginia (some guy cracked under social stress and went around “purifying” his school grounds) and now we have the same situation happening in another country.

I think the worst school shooting everyone can remember is the Columbine High School in which 2 schoolboys went around ventilating their schoolmates with assorted firearms. Yes that is quite some time ago but probably one of the worst that ever happened around the world, thus many youths (usually those who are socially inept or handicapped) somehow idolise Harris and Klebold, and quite a number sought to re-enact such happenings in their own school. Actually in my personal opinion,

I give my fullest support for any student in any school who wants to do this.

Go ahead with the WTFs and “You are nuts”.

Go ahead and close this page if you want. Go ahead and condemn me.

Before you “X” this page take a _l_ from me up your arse as you climb back to your moral high ground.

As for those of you who are interested in knowing why, you are welcome to read the rest of my “hubris”.

Time To Blog

I am seriously running out of time I have, and I really need to spend some time studying for my As again.

Stupid military service. What a waste of time.

Anyway I took a personality test and this is what came out……

Your view on yourself:

You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you will commit to the relationship.

The seriousness of your love:

You like to flirt and behave seductively. The opposite sex finds this very attractive, and that’s why you’ll always have admirers hanging off your arms. But how serious are you about choosing someone to be in a relationship with?

Your views on education

Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.

The right job for you:

You’re a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you’ll be set for life.

How do you view success:

You are confident that you will be successful in your chosen career and nothing will stop you from trying.

What are you most afraid of:

You are afraid of things that you cannot control. Sometimes you show your anger to cover up how you feel.

Who is your true self:

You are full of energy and confidence. You are unpredictable, with moods changing as quickly as an ocean. You might occasionally be calm and still, but never for long.

Sound quite true. So why don’t you take it at http://www.quizbox.com/personality/test82.aspx?

COSFEST 08 Day 1

P.S I don’t have time to do a write up or go to the second day of the event, so I will just upload the photos I took and you peeps can leave a comment if you want the original photos. I need to book in soon and I don’t have time to wait for sendspace or mediafire to finish uploading them (no idea why they are SO SLOW at this moment, screw it man).

http://s206.photobucket.com/albums/bb247/SaintessRisa/Cosfest%2008/

I need to go out now to book in. Leave a comment and I will get back to you by next Friday night or Saturday morning.

See you at EOY08!

Short Post + New Song For PINKBEATZ

Right now I wouldn’t really have anything much to say and I am dead tired from being out the whole day. I still have not watched Da Capo SS’s latest episodes yet (I missed 11 and 12!!!!)

I need to be more open and post more often if I want site traffic. But somehow I am lacking in something called time.

Miharu has a new song named Ticket to the Wonderland ( I am sure it missed out 3 words at the back, namely “where Alice is”). Click on the PinkBeatz Myspace link on the blogroll, I am too lazy to get to buy some server space and edit this blog. IMO, both the title and the rhythm make it quite fitting for a Macross series fighting theme.

Well! I am going off to sleep now. It is already past midnight here. Cya peeps.

P.S I am addicted to Minori Chihara’s Yuki, Muon, Madobe Nite (雪、無音、窓辺にて。). It is Yuki Nagato’s character song in Suzumiya Haruhi No Yuutsu, which I rediscovered in some obscure location in my old hard drive. Haven’t heard it for a long time though. Lovely, maybe I will get a violin and try to play the string acoustic parts.

P.P.S The reason why I am raving about this old anime (Suzumiya Haruhi No Yuutsu) in the past few days is because COSFEST ‘08 IS COMING!!!!! I went to my first because of this anime (I wasn’t really an anime fan until THIS), and I missed last year’s due to ‘A’s. Hopefully I can get a costume up, it is next week.

3. AYA’s Urgent News

Hellooo everyone…
This is AYA here!

Finally the recording has ended!

However, it is not complete yet as the sound engineer has not finished compiling the sound source.

While singing for the recording, I was curious about how it would turn out like. The atmosphere had made me felt much more excited.

I will do my best for the live! It would be a pleasure to sing the new songs. I would like to hear from everyone about the pack when it dispatches! Everyone is excited after a month of waiting, don’t you think?

This is the end of the report from A-cube today. See you next time!

Well I am off to sleep now. Nights!

P.S I will continue referring to Ayako as Miharu, to prevent complications due to the fact that I am a fan of the Seiyuu/Singer Hirano Aya of Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu (2006) fame too. Also, just in case I get a stay-in unit after my course, I might not be able to do the translations on the day of release of the newsletter, but I will try my best to get the translations up once I book out.

PINKBEATZ

After yesterday’s insane rave about a certain puppygirl’s return, it is time to try and sketch a clearer picture of what is actually going on.

There is this girl who joined BeForU NEXT 4 years ago as Arisawa Miharu and turned the world upside down with her powerful voice and crazy personality. She left in 2007 “due to an illness”.

In 2008 she resurfaced as Kobayashi Ayako and caused a temporary blackout lasting an hour on beatrevolution servers on i-revo (only Haruhi can do that……).

Here is the I-revo link to the main site. She is releasing a new album named Super Virgin on 27/7/2008.

Please don’t ask me why it is like that. It is her way of doing things okay?

There will be four songs on the album, I will update later/tomorrow because….

UPDATE : Ignore the picture. It went through already. The four songs are LOVELY GAME, Moonlight Destiny, Super Virgin and Free Falcon. But be prepared to get blackouts from that URL because there are still alot of fans out there who have not heard the news (please spread it for the sake of SOS Dan! Thank you).

Currently what I can say is that the details are still sketchy, but it isn’t going to stop me from getting one of her new albums.

Anyway I figured out the real name of Risa/Alice. It is Asahina Mikuru (朝比奈 みくる) xD

GOOD NEWS ON THE BLOG!!!!

I have very good news today.

Or should I just give you the link?

http://mp.i-revo.jp/comm.php/3792/

Nah I shall……

BLOG ALL ABOUT IT, TALK ALL ABOUT IT, THE ANGELS HAVE RETURNEDDDDDDD…….TADADADADA………

May I present to everyone,

PINKBEATZ!!!!!

May I present the first member, Kobayashi Ayako (小林絢子)…..or should I call her,

ARISAWA MIHARU??????

Evil puppy cheated our feelings. Bad girl!!!<3

Outside that group, we shall introduce…….

小松奈央. Komatsu Nao, but isn’t she….

KOMATSU YOMA??????<3<3

She looks real hot in that new look, but why is there still that scowl of discontent on her face? Must be Miharu……

And now for the sweetest member of the group, 高橋ありさ, or AliCE <3<3<3.

Yep that is still the dreamy wonderland Alice whom used to be known as SOTOHANA RISA <3<3<3.

P.S Right now the links are being cut and overloaded due to the sudden upsurge of news (news sure do travel fast, I just got back from camp a few hours ago). I will upload their recent photos later. But here are the links you can check out if you want to.

UPDATE : The links are back online after severe raping by some fans (I think xD). Your turn now. xD

Kobayashi Ayako AKA Arisawa Miharu

ALiCE AKA Sotohana Risa

Komatsu Nao AKA Komatsu Yoma

There is also something else to check out. It is Orange Range’s Shiawase Neiro (シアワセネイロ) PV. Kinda sweet if you ask me, and the full version is certainly 100x times better than the clipped version in Code Geass R2’s EP.

I am off to do some more stuff, more updates tomorrow!!

POP LOH!!!

Okay this is old news for 4 days but I have passed out!

Been having too much stuff these days to blog.

Anyway I am going to PC Show tomorrow. Get some loot out tomorrow. xD

Nights peeps.

Please Give Me More Time!

FINALLY FIELD CAMP IS OVER!!!

After surviving 6 days in the same clothing and a rusty rifle, I am finally back. But I am booking back in again today. Bliss.

Situational test is up next. I can’t wait to POP in 3 weeks time!

I wish I can get into a unit that allows me time to study for my A levels (as well as watch anime).

Well cya all peeps. I am tired out.

Out Of Time

Finally I have the time to blog!

Goodness me, I have been in and out of camp for the past 3 weeks with absolutely no time to myself. And I have to stay in camp for the next 2 weeks again.

Just a small thing about NS, I realise that I have been excessively self-centred and overly self-sufficient that I hate teamwork the moment I start on it. I wish I can change a little much faster because I am having field camp starting next Saturday. Bliss.

And one more thing about BeForU, from my sources, I heard that the Shinzen are releasing a new album soon. Hopefully I can update this post by tomorrow.

Anyone going to Sayaka’s concert with me? It is on the 29th of June, 2 weeks after I POP.

Hypocrisy is paramount in camp. Beware.
