Hmmm....

Well, I'm still not going to be writing any stories for a long while, but I think I should try somewhat getting these random plotlines for my character out of my head and onto some paper (well, screen, I suppose). I think I'll doing some plot synopsis, intros to stories, and character profiles on this blog for a few stories that I have. Of course, I won't put them ALL down at once; I have a variety of ideas in my head, and chances are even past posts like this one will be edited quite frequently, so check them out. I'll probably indicate if I updated something in a past thread.

Oh, and these as of now don't have titles. Titles and names are possibly one of the major reasons why I'll never write a story outright. No, not really, but titles suck. :P

Thomas's story.

Introduction:

"As we approach the 26th century, it is helpful to reflect upon us the immense developments of technology in our world. Most notably, as everyone has obviously seen, is the integration of the internet into everyone's lives; integrated so much that it has become not just a reality, but a completely alternate reality to us. With the ability to artificially hear, feel, taste, sense, and see a fabrication of data, people have created a world with their most desired dreams, sometimes at the cost of the dwindling interest in reality itself. But that has been the truth up to now: reality still exists, we must apply a device in order to log into the internet, and we must still eat and sleep to maintain our lives.
However, the bridge between reality and internet may finally be completed with the arrival of our newest project, RU-BY, Robotic Unit- Binary Youth (Pending name, RUBY will be kept, its meaning will probably change when I expand my vocabulary :P) . Wolf Industries (also pending name) has generously demonstrated over the last couple of decades its technological capacity on combining electrical impulses in the human nervous system with computational data; though the human system is complex and humans have yet to determine the full mechanisms of the human brain, Wolf Industries has illuminated the world by bringing sensual experiences of the newfound world we know of as the internet. Therefore, the coming of the first biological computer, Ruby, should be expected from the potential of such a innovative and ambitious corporation. The project was conducted using the DNA of a human specimen, altered through genetic manipulation, then was duplicated and placed into many different human oocytes. The project obviously was not an immediate success; despite the major advances in human biotechnology, there were countless failures before the success of the first RUBY. Kept in an isolated, oxygenated chamber, and using delicate mechanical devices, the team managed to implement a variety of microchips for operation on the specimen's brain; this will be explained more in detail later the report.
RUBY is finally in operation and is now in her beta testing period, conducted by the project team leader. As of yet, the project is a huge success; being able to directly connect to the internet with no external devices, to essentially learn, instantly, any procedures assigned to her by downloading templates (this has included, but is not limited to, cooking, cleaning, delivering and picking up packages, athletics, and martial arts) . However, though RUBY is currently a huge success, many obstacles lie ahead, and not merely experimental error; overzealous human rights activists, competitive corporations, and government disapproval may all present a particularly difficult dilemma. Furthermore, as humans themselves still have no true understanding of their own kind, there is an unknown danger that originates from Ruby herself... many precautions have been taken so far, but there is no way to know for sure. Still, this should not discourage us from proceeding with a spectacular project, one that not only presents to the company a new marketing model, but the possible understanding of life, rebirth, and humanity itself."
-Thomas T. Reusbucks, Abstract in a report sent to the head company discussing their project Ruby.

(DAMN that was a long intro! >.<) Synopsis: Thomas wasn't far off when he talked about all the problems he predicts he'll encounter while "testing" Ruby. His generally peaceful lifestyle with Ruby being somewhat of a servant-type character by his side is rudely thrown into chaos when a particularly malicious virus that interferes with her memory storage. Soon, everyone becomes involved, willingly or unwillingly, in the conflict that arises between Ruby and Thomas, as rights activist hackers, greedy corporate owners, government officials, and Thomas's associates all plunge into a chaotic mystery that no one knows the answer to... except for Dr. Reusbucks.

Characters: (Ironic how I don't do Thomas first :p)

Ruby
Age of Appearance: 16 (However, her height is only about 1 foot)
General Description: Long Red Hair, Black Blouse, Purple Skirt, Stocking and Shoes
Ruby is probably one of the most complex characters ever made, considering everything that she must go through. Though initially programmed not to show any human emotion at all, this obviously becomes a failure when mysterious "files" pop up following the elimination of a recent virus that cause Ruby to have "feelings". Eventually, the feelings cause Ruby to disobey Dr. Reusbucks and cause her to inquire as to who is she in reality. Ironically, those exact same feelings prevent her from harming Dr. Reusbucks outright, as if the bond that she had developed with Dr. Reusbucks was mutual... nevertheless, she runs away, and causes a enormous mess with not just Dr. Reusbucks and his associates, but to the entire city. With such an advanced human, no one had the capability to stop her (though obviously there are attempts to do so), except for one man. No one in the same respect had the complete answer to her question, except for one individual. Do I really have to tell you who that person is? :p
"Who am I?"

Jon Wolfe (Pending name)
Age: 24ish
General Description: Rough "Indiana Jones" kinda guy in a lab coat
Mechanical engineering expert, and close friend of Thomas. Well, as close as you can possibly get. In addition to designing computer hardware, he also works on other machinary, including tools and weapons. He has a hobby of designing and constructing weaponry, though he does most of his inventions in secret to prevent government suspicion, though some of his weapons and most of his tools do become marked by Wolf Industries. Jon Wolfe knows more about Thomas than possibly any other person in the city that is alive, well, and talking; he is a highly reliable character, able to take secrets and not stirred by threats in any way. He designs Thomas's weaponry when Thomas needs it for his own protection.
"Both of them... they're more human than you think."

Ken Wolfe (Pending name)
Age: 18ish
General Description: Rebellious guy with spikey hair
Ken has a bit more of a twist with his character. He is, on the surface, the computer engineering expert of the group; he does most of the programming and knows an immense amount of programming languages. However, he also a member of the human rights activists group, and in a way is responsible for some of the viruses that are caused around the net. He is specifically angered at the RUBY project and actually does not have a particular liking to Ruby. His main goals in the story seem to revolve around eliminating Ruby and capturing Thomas (he doesn't want to do anything further because of his brother). This is very likely due to another influencing character of this group, though she does not appear in the plotline a lot except in flashbacks and memories...
"Is life a toy?!?"

Crystal Reusbucks
Age: 16
General Appearance: Light Green Hair like Thomas, kinda wavy... otherwise usually seen sick in bed at hospital
Crystal's condition is that she is hospitalized in bed without consciousness. She is Thomas's sister, and is said to be the key link in Ruby's identity. Much of what is known of her is in the past: she has a relationship with Ken, which is thus attributed to Ken's attitude; she had a very energetic and playful personality, much in contrast to her brother; both brother and sister seemed to have a very good relationship with each other, though the sister seemed to display her affection more obviously than the brother; she was eventually involved in an accident and was placed on life support, unconscious. It was said that no one knew where Thomas went during that time, But Thomas did take trips to the hospital to see her once in a while. Crystal IS still alive; she is in the hospital.
"Don't lose..."

President Janus Roberts (Pending name)
Age: 40ish
General Description: Typical Plump Businessman
Cheif Executive Officer of Wolf Industries. He has a rather prideful personality, confident of himself and his company; nevertheless, he is a fairly amiable person. He has always kept his faith in himself and the company he worked hard to build up, despite failures that have come his way, and in that sense he is strong. This could be seen in the vast technological advances that Wolf Industries has made thanks to Janus's funding and support. Still, he seems rather ambitious about building up his dream, a dream that would reconstruct the past he lost... As seen by his vast wealth, he is most knowledgable about playing the marketing and business game, careful with stocks and sales to continue building up his wealth and funding his company for more research.
"The human mindset is to never accept what is, but to continue living for what will be."

Helice and Plata
Age of Appearance: 21(Helice) and 14(Plata)
General Description: Helice has curly hair split into two parts, and her outfit is similar to that of Sion from Melty Blood except that it is green and her skirt is not frilled and more tight, like a female military officer; Plata has hair similar to Akane from Mai Hime/Mai Otome or that one girl from Shakugan no Shana (forgot her name :p) and is probably in a one-piece dress though I have not figured it out yet :p
Two later models constructed after Ruby, and hence have similar functions. They both operate under Janus, Helix serving as the head security guard for the company, Plata taking the role of the head secretary. Helice and Plata, unlike Ruby, "seem" to have emotional responses, though someone like Thomas may merely indicate that it is in the programming; their emotions correspond to their job position. Helice is aggressive, commanding, and serious, a very leader-type character; Plata is more quiet, shy, and attentive, conducting any task quickly, carefully, and without question. These two characters are actually ressurected forms of Janus's previous family, a daughter and a wife that he had lost in an accident. It's said that Janus's own selfishness was partially the reason for their accident, and ever since Janus has become ever more ambitious, but more supportive and generous to others.
Ruby- "Do you even realize what you are??? Why you were brought into the world???"
Plata- "We know what... or who... we are. And whether we operate as computer or human, we accept our position with full faith."
Helice- "More importantly, have you determined your purpose of existance?"

Director Sylvan (pending name)
Age: 60ish
General Description: Takes the appearance of an old but very knowledgable kind of guy
Chief militant officer of the city, his own occupation is at stake as many have adapted to a life of virtual existance, with very little crime to control except for the ever growing hacking-prevention agency. Nevertheless, Sylvan is fairly appreciative of the seeming tranquility of the city with the growing internet lifestyle... This all changes rapidly when Ruby causes chaos in both the virtual world and reality; the government, now seeing the new models as a threat to society, forbids further construction into the models and orders the elimination of all existing models. Sylvan, understanding the situation, complies without hesitation, but with a inquiring thought lingering in his mind, as to what these new models really are...
"There is no one dream that can realize everyone else's desires. In order to satisfy a majority of the people's wishes, some others' fantasies must be shattered."

Doll Shopkeeper (No name yet)
Age: 22ish
Appearance: Has brown hair with a band to keep it all together... not quite a ponytail, but hopefully someone gets what I mean. >.> Wears Apron, takes the appearance of a motherlike character
This woman is the shopkeeper of a hobbies store that makes doll clothes, and she happens to find Ruby unconscious (perhaps from a previous battle or out of exhaustion). She takes Ruby in and takes care of her, treating her as if she were her child. Ruby, after she comes to her senses, reluctantly accepts her hospitality in exchange for... some particular modelling jobs the shopkeeper asks her to do. The shopkeeper is a rather lively and energetic girl, fairly cordial and often explodes with bursts of "OMG CUTE"ness, especially towards Ruby. She is, however, a very knowledgable character and seems to have some relation with Thomas. She knows what Ruby is and in a way Thomas entrusted Ruby to take care of her, at least for a while.
[i]Dolls, unlike machines, are not tools, but objects of admiration. I think it works the same way in humans. Humans want... not to be used... but to be admired...[/i]

Thomas Reusbucks
Age: 24ish
Appearance: Green (Slightly messy) Hair, Small trapazoidlike glasses, thin body frame build in a semi-formal shirt with slacks and a lab coat.
Well, Most of anyone who knows how I play Thomas Reusbucks will already know how he acts. Stoic, not very expressive, very factual, neither generous nor selfish, he usually just acts what just comes by. He obviously has something deep within him that keeps him motivated to live on and do what he does, though no one really knows exactly what it is. He does, however, throughout the story, appear whenever Ruby seems to be in a jam and help her escape, to the dismay of practically every other person in the city they live in. :p Other than that, he manages to hide away from everyone with the help of his friend Jon, with the occasional character stumbling upon him; when that happens, either a few words are exchanged, or they get into a little spar, which always seems to end up in Thomas running away, whether he was winning or losing. :p

Environment
The City: The city reminds me a lot LA: Gray and smoggy, pretty congested, except that since cars can fly (original concept isn't it :p) the congestion is more in the air around large skyscrapers. Most of the people live and work in these skyscrapers, usually having one room for both their job and home at the same time. Machines in particular dominate the production industry, being responsible for everything the labor union currently covers, such as regulating traffic, cashier, production, enforcement, and even responsible for their own repair and construction. Because robots have become such a dominant workforce in this city, maintaining them has become essential, and hence the major job industry for humans is programming to keep these machines in check. These people take care of viruses, help keep the machines going, and develop new programs for the same machine to make them work more efficiently. There are other jobs, of course (as indicated, head corporate owners, directors of government positions, and scientists), but the majority of the human population are now programmers. Though the world is more efficient in terms of pollution, the atmosphere still seems unhealthy and nonappealing, and most people merely stay in their rooms, never to leave; they let the robots do anything that require outside contact. Note: Jon Wolfe, Sylvan, and Helice have more expertise in this area, meaning that they can navigate, fight, and is just plain more comfortable in the real world city than they are, in contrast to the internet which will be discussed below.

The Internet: The internet is an astonishing place, more impressive than the technology of the current real world (though, without a doubt, the technological advances in the real world are also very impressive). Basically, anyone can "construct" a web page (which is now situated like a house) and build it to their own liking, presuming that they know how to program and create a web page (usually, since most everyone is a programmer now, everyone knows how to do this pretty easily). The internet can appeal to all the senses as it is a virtual device that is inputted through nerve endings, and creates a virtual world from there. The user's appearance is exactly how the user looks like in reality, though they can modify their own appearance with the appropriate programming. Clothes are an additional programming process. However, though the Internet seems like Utopia, there are still troubles, most notably the viruses. People still wish to harm others (this is human nature) and so viruses, something in the shape of a real T9 type virus that infects bacteria (they look like polyhedrons with legs) can "infect" a person... if this happens, serious mental injuries can result, and the person responsible for the virus may be charged with very strict and very severe penalties. Ken Wolfe and Plata are much more keen and comfortable in this Internet world for navigation and battle than the other characters.
umm... more will come later :p

It's been proven!

Cute Anime girls lower my IQ by a helluva lot.

UPDATE: Apparently, my blog looks really funny now since I made a rather short post. I messed around with the template for a while today and still couldn't figure out how to fix it, but I did redesign my blog a bit, mainly by making the font look smaller and replacing a few links and info. Unfortunately, the huge gap still looks dumb. So, from this I can either:

A. Make my post REALLY long, verticalwise, or
B. Waste time by looking up more information on CSS style sheets over the internet or in one of the HTML books I have at home.

I think I'll stick with choice A since it seems to be the easier of the two right now :p.

Test

This will be a random entry about a test I had today. It may somehow go into philosophy of life and happiness, so you have been warned. The details of the test are that I did quite horribly, and as you may expect, I am not enthusiastic about my performance. Seeing how I have not finished two of the five problems on the exam, as well as being confident that I have misinterpreted two of the other problems in the exam, I estimate that I may get less than half correct on the exam. Obviously this brings up an onset of emotional despair, but, I decided that today I will analyze my own stress over the test, the actual importance of the test to me, and many other things that if I want to I'll just BS right now.
You know, tests, along with school itself, isn't more important in the overall picture to life than even something like anime. This is true with money, clothes, social status, anything humans ever value or treasure... it's not that damn important. In fact, when looking at it from a logical perspective, there's no real "purpose" to life; that is, not that I'm going on a depression streak, but life merely just spontaneously appeared on a rock in the middle of nowhere (literally), and it will just as likely spontaneously disappear one day. So in reality, even if things aren't important, it's not going to hurt in worrying about these things. Just, in terms of ranking, nothing is TRULY more important than the other. However, for most people, myself included, there are some things that hold value to them more than other thingss. This is perfectly fine; this is how we pretty much find motivation to live.
So some people like money, some people like clothes, some people like power (political, military, whatever), and some people like anime. While I sometimes may criticize some of these people for caring about such "unimportant" things, I myself wonder about my own attentiveness to school and grades. Why is it that I have become like the person I am, someone who feels such despair when doing bad on a test, that it was similar to, say, a couple breaking up? Perhaps? It might not be a bad analogy, but it gets the idea across, especially for people who regard relationships as something important.
Well, I thought about it a little more, and I realize that in actuality, I don't get disappointed about the grade of the test itself. I have had tests that I have bombed, and I felt... well, not satisfied, but more or less "ok, I got that grade" sort of attitude. Maybe apathetic, but that seems misleading. However, this time when I finished the test, that I knew I was going to bomb, I felt horrible. This is because I knew that the grade I will recieve cannot represent what I think I am and what I "deserve" on the test. Deserve is a sketchy word, since it implies that someone did something wrong, and it is not my fault. No, it was still my result, but it is the result of something not from my knowledge of the subject, but my lack of composure and attentiveness. Perhaps this is what truly upsets me: that I get graded not because of what I know on the subject, but because I ran out of time on a problem that I could have definately without a doubt solved, and that I am mislead in a problem because of my poor reading skills.
Grades are not what make me "happy". When people compliment me on my grades, saying "what a good student you are", I shrug, and I don't really care. Why is that? Well, maybe its because grades I feel aren't something that truly can represent me. Too much of a percentage of my grades are not representative of what I know, but rather of what I did because it was assigned, along with some non-knowledge related mistakes I made as I had indicated earlier. What really makes me feel satisfied and "happy", more so than any game that I could play or any anime that I would watch, is when I help other people, or similarly when I am working on a rather difficult problem that I know I can solve. In both of these situations, I feel that it's not the end result that I'm looking for, but rather that I am using my intelligence, should that be the word. In the first case, I feel immensely satisfied when someone looks at me as smart not because of my grades, but because they watch the process I explain to them in which to solve a particular problem; I am not perfect, and I had many occasions where people correct me in minor details or even give me a different way to think, but the impact that I had on them, that I showed them I could solve a problem or explain this situation to them, gives me a feeling of happiness that matches almost no other. In the other case, the basic thrill of solving a problem is something like exercising the brain; now, before I do the problem, I may groan why I have to solve the problem because of homework, and after the problem, I may forget about it completely and just move on to the next one or whatever I do next. But while doing a problem, and knowing what to do, it's exciting. Only in one case is it not exciting but immensely stressful is if there is a time limit, as there is on a test, and this time limit is almost approaching its end. At this point, its no longer knowledge but more stress, and because of this many times a problem that would not have been difficult to solve (and even enjoyable) would give me a hard time because of the time limit. This is why sometimes I will become frustrated over one test that I bomb, then say "Meh, you idiot, try harder next time" on another.
Well I guess if I'm living in this world I do have to look to the menial work and be more attentive to the time and mistakes that I make; in chemistry, for example, I have significantly reduced the amount of error that I make in my tests and have scored, in the last semester, many grades in the 90s. I don't know, but I guess since this test is done and over with, it doesn't help to mourn over my nervous breakdown during the past problem of this test, along with all the other mistakes I thought up AFTER I turned in the test, but to go on, start on thermodynamics, and when the final comes next week, work quicker, double check the work, and whatever grade I get, will be the one I felt I deserve, whether it be good or bad.

Uta Kata 2: The OVA!!!

OMG THE OVA CAME OUT!! \o/

Ok first off, the OVA certainly retained the enchantedness that it had before, the elusive "what's going on here" for the first part, then the realization of a rather simple concept at the end. While it's not exactly an extremely deep-plotted OVA (come on, only 30 minute sequel of a show that already ended, you can't put much more into it than that), I must say that it still has that empathetic nature.
Mostly I think what the story is trying to emphasize is that the mirror images, Manatsu and Kai, are gone from their lives, like friends seperated by travels or even death. Nevertheless, what's most important is the memories left with these people that they once knew, and because of that they will "never be seperated". The concept of them being the same may have to do something with the memories being retained in Ichika's memories, therefore being a part of her forever. The mirrors disappearing show that this cannot be held in another inanimate object: they exist only within the mind of Ichika, and she forever will retain those memories.
Lying seems to still be an issue here; while the original series emphasizes how lying can hurt people, this one seems to show the opposite: some lies can be okay. This is probably disappointing in a way, but still what can you put into just a 30 minute sequel without a second season?
What was MOST impacting was finally getting to know the meaning of the title "Uta Kata". Like a said before, uta kata meant "a piece of poetry" in Chinese, but when put together, they can actually mean "bubble". This is important, it expresses the fragility of time, time with friends, and events altogether. Everything seems to move rather slow while the event is going on (IE a bubble just steadily floating in the air), but they can disappear in an instant (pop!) and then all that is left is the memory, the rememberance of the beautiful structure of the bubble. Pretty deep, and pretty damn elusive considering they went through the whole series with me stumped on what the hell the title meant.

^-^ Uta Kata will rock, no matter what anyone says! Though, no one watch the OVA, it has some pretty explicit scenes even compared to the original series. :P Still Ecchi, but eeeh.... >.>

Uta Kata!

OMG I'm making a blog post! :o too bad it's really uninteresting for most of whoever would read my blog (considering people still check over here) and at the very most all you'll get out of it is considering myself as a pedophile.

Why? Because Uta Kata is the most loliest anime I've ever seen. I'm also presuming that it must be the most loliest non-hentai anime out there, even more than Negima. (At least in Negima they had "14 year olds" that looked like they were 30. In Uta Kata, they have 14 year old girls that look like... 14 year old girls... and way too much fanservice to go along with it). Therefore, first and formost, I would like to say that I do NOT recommend this anime to ANYONE, unless you have a tolerance for loli. And I'm serious about that. Other than that, the show pretty damn awesome, because the artwork (*coughartworknotfanservicecough*) is very nice, especially since they have a different artist doing a costume design for Ichika in each episode, followed by a special CG pic at the end of each episode. It's amazing: there was the mangaka for FLCL, one from Kannazuki no Miko, Kiddy Grade (I think this artist designed the characters for the whole series), and even one from Ken Atsumatsu (sp?)!!! OMG, the person who did love hina and Negima designed one of the character outfits!!! /omg

Well, that was like a otakuish moment right there. Anyway, onto the commentary!!

Uta Kata, at first glance, seems to serve only as fanservice. But when you really get into the series, you find out that, it's main purpose still seems to stand for fanservice. :p But in seriousness, there is a pretty deep theme and plot going on here. It's very intriguing, and for today's commentary, I'm going to split the major thematic questions in Uta Kata into four groups:
1. What's the purpose of the Djinns and her having super powers anyway?
2. What's with the dream and Manatsu saying she's gonna kill Ichika?
3. Who (or what) the hell is Manatsu anyway? And what's up with the tears?
4. The two decisions Seya-san gives her at the end.

1. Ok, now, when you're first watching the episodes, you're wondering why this schoolgirl gets super powers in the first place. There isn't any horrific terrifying monster killing innocent people along the streets, so why give this 14 year old such a power? After watching the entire anime, it became logical to me. The purpose of the anime is to show the period between "innocence" and "adulthood"; innocence where the child was fragile, ignorant, and blissful, having, in general for most children, barely any worries despite what they may have been through. In adulthood, there is understanding, knowledge, and perhaps corruption in some of the adults; they know the world is not a safe place. Some opt to live to be beneficiary anyway, despite this knowledge; some of them do not bother with the knowledge and live their lives in apathy, more or less (I would be classified in this section); some take advantage and play a part in the corruption of the world. Of course, there has to be a transition phase between innocence and adulthood, and Uta Kata shows exactly that, the pains of suddenly realizing the world isn't as blissful as they may have once thought. The super powers, other than for costume fanservice, shows the progression of the child's mind as it goes into this transition; initially, Ichika tries her best to use the powers to help others, only to find out "truths" behind each Djinn usage and discover some form of corruption within the people she was helping. After a point where she became jealous of Seya and began realizing her own anger at the world (in essence, developing selfishness), she began to change, just like a typical teenager. Unlike a typical teenager, though, she had power, the power of the Djinn; this was purposely given to her so that she can abuse it after she discovered what the world was like, whether she wanted to abuse it willingly or unwillingly. Her own desires were fighting against her consciousness and innocence as the episodes began nearing the end, and thus with the appearance of her "evil" self.
2. The dream's main mystery lies in the phrase "I will kill you". But of course, no one really dies in the end of the episode. So did the dream not live through its legacy? Wrong. It DID kill her, it killed, in particular, her ignorance of the world. Before, she could look at the world as if it were heaven; nothing can go wrong here, because everyone is supposed to be nice. But with the arrival of Manatsu and the powers of the Djinn, she was allowed to see (that's what comes first), hear, taste, smell, etc. all the corruption in the world, until she could not even eat anything without tasting the bitterness of corruption in her mouth; she could hear the tears that were being held back by some of her friends and thus feel their pain when it was meant to be hid. With so much overwhelming her, her innocence truly collapsed, and while she retains the consciousness of her former self, the conscience alone struggled greatly against her developing hatred and desires of the world.
3. Who the heck is Manatsu? At first I thought it might be Ichika, but the more I thought about it, the more I didn't see how it can click. First off, there is barely anything in relation with Manatsu and Ichika other than they are girls; I really cannot see any connection that makes Manatsu the same as Ichika, which would be implied if she was the reflection of Ichika. Rather, I do believe she is a henchman of the Mirror Djinn, only materialized into reality. Now, before getting into detail about Manatsu and my theory about her, let's think about mirrors for a sec. Mirrors show the reflection as it is, but only shows the physical nature of the reflection; inside the mirror itself, there is no consciousness, no feeling, no emotion, though the person in the mirror may seem to express it (however, remember, this is only the reflection of reality). Therefore, when Manatsu first came out of the mirror, she did not have emotional connections because she can only react physically to reality, not mentally. She started off as acting, but slowly began to acquire human ways because she was now in reality and not in a mirror; she can experience emotion and feeling, and while she still was a mirror for most of the series, she began to understand Ichika and "feel" for her. It's like the mirror is an actor behind the glass; it knows nothing of what it's performing, but it just does so, decieving its onlookers into thinking it can actually feel what it is acting. When the mirror shard becomes reality, however, she can suddenly feel and act like a real human, and what was once a straightfoward command that can be easily done (think of her as a machine at first that suddenly gets emotions... like Ruby :o) now becomes a task where she wonders... "is this right?"
4. The final two choices: Kill the rest of the world, or kill yourself. This can be said as the two main choices teenagers make when they reach their point in life where innocence is gone. Do you want to kill the world? If you do, then you become part of it, corrupt, always wanting to decieve others to your advantage. In a sense, to choose that option would mean you were selfish and thought of yourself as higher than others. Killing yourself isn't much better either, but many teenagers do so anyway. They may be under the belief that the world, including themselves, is corrupt, and the only way to end it for them is to end their lives. Or they may begin to blame everything that is corrupt on themselves, which then makes them think that if they kill themselves, they can save the world. However, Ichika makes the right choice (obviously, she's the protagonist -_-;;). She claims that she understands the world is corrupt, and herself may have flaws, but she wants to live anyway. She wants to continue to change. Remember, before she did not want to change and wanted to keep her innocence, therefore, she continued to run away. In the middle of the series, she realizes she cannot keep her innocence and it dies, as stated in #2. For a moment, she becomes eer... "evil" and wants to kill the world, then she begins hating herself because she wants to kill the world, and then in the very end she makes the very smart decision that it's neither hers nor the world's fault, as we are dicussing right now. It's change from not wanting any change to looking foward to it. She moves from wanting to stay innocent and never changing, to becoming "sinned" (stupid religious terms :p) and knowing she is, but hoping that change comes along and either lessens the sin inside her or around her. It's truly a touching anime....

One last note: the one question I could never figure out was what Uta Kata has to do with anything. Because it was like, never mentioned in the show and I have no idea what it means. After looking up some stuff on the internet, I found out that it has something to do with mirror shards and the title of the last episode, so I guess it's shorta like symbolism of the shards in the title. :o Ok that wasn't as deep.
EDIT RE: THE NOTE- Ok, I looked up the kanji in a chinese dictionary, and apparently the two words (in chinese, "Shi Pian") mean something to the extent of "a piece of poetry". Shi has relations with poems and whatnot, and Pian is a unit word for usually thin slices. So it's something like a thin slice of poetry? o_O well... that doesn't help much. -_-;;

UTA KATA IS AN AWESOME ANIME!!! BUT NONE OF YOU EVER WATCH IT!!! BECAUSE YOU GUYS WILL THEN COME AFTER ME WITH A BLOODY KNIFE SAYING THAT YOUR INNOCENCE IS DESTROYED!!! (ironically :p)

PMA's birthday! Happy Birthday!

Here's what happened, from prep time to the backstabbing present Sal2 gave PMA >:P
-----
(6:27:05 PM) You have just entered room "Chat 38591131003023655909."
(6:27:10 PM) Numberonemole has entered the room.
(6:27:35 PM) ProfJbWolf II has entered the room.
TheMysteriousBox (6:27:42 PM): so sos o!
ProfJbWolf II (6:27:43 PM): We make plans in aminute
ProfJbWolf II (6:27:46 PM): I gotta go get dinner!
TheMysteriousBox (6:27:54 PM): ooo, I'm gonna hvae dinner soon too >.>
TheMysteriousBox (6:27:57 PM): NOBODY LEAVE!
ProfJbWolf II (6:28:05 PM): Tell Sal2
Numberonemole (6:28:32 PM): Ello ello
TheMysteriousBox (6:28:50 PM): should we try to go with my previous plans
TheMysteriousBox (6:28:57 PM): or do we think PMA's really too dumb or egotistic to care
TheMysteriousBox (6:29:05 PM): because PMA seems to be more untrusting of us lately
Numberonemole (6:29:26 PM): Ask Prof
Numberonemole (6:29:43 PM): He seems nice enopugh to me
TheMysteriousBox (6:29:43 PM): oh look, an adamant aerodactyl >.>
Numberonemole (6:29:52 PM): Prof prolly has the closest ties to him
TheMysteriousBox (6:30:09 PM): should I keep this one or try for a female :P
Numberonemole (6:30:39 PM): idk
TheMysteriousBox (6:30:46 PM): /sob help me
Numberonemole (6:30:58 PM): How shall we introduce this idea to PA*keep it*
TheMysteriousBox (6:31:10 PM): I'll invite him
TheMysteriousBox (6:31:16 PM): pretend you two are in the middle of an RP melee
TheMysteriousBox (6:31:23 PM): and say we really need your help >.<
TheMysteriousBox (6:31:35 PM): (A lie, but maybe he's egotistical enough to fall for it)
Numberonemole (6:32:04 PM): Alrighty
TheMysteriousBox (6:32:16 PM): ok I need to brb
Numberonemole (6:32:25 PM): How about Exo has kidnapped you Profy or something
TheMysteriousBox (6:32:26 PM): if PJBW comes back before me, start thinking how PJBW got captured
TheMysteriousBox (6:32:34 PM): who's Exo?
TheMysteriousBox (6:32:38 PM): and we need someone to go "get" PMA :p
Numberonemole (6:33:42 PM): A new character
Numberonemole (6:33:45 PM): Exococutio
TheMysteriousBox (6:33:54 PM): sounds like Exeggutor
TheMysteriousBox (6:34:06 PM): well I was thinking of getting a few fight scenes in too but I don't care
TheMysteriousBox (6:34:10 PM): you and PJBW plan it while I go eat
Numberonemole (6:34:20 PM): Alrighty
Numberonemole (6:34:46 PM): PA shows up, me and you in fight, Dnoce grabs up and like, just runs off at extreme speeds?
TheMysteriousBox (6:35:07 PM): hmmm
TheMysteriousBox (6:35:11 PM): well dinner isn't ready yet so
TheMysteriousBox (6:35:22 PM): you could say PJBW got trapped in one of your spells
TheMysteriousBox (6:35:35 PM): then Dnoce ran off and such
TheMysteriousBox (6:36:03 PM): I as always usually sit to the side
Numberonemole (6:36:13 PM): First we need Prof to wake up
TheMysteriousBox (6:36:17 PM): and while PJBW is being taken away, PJBW makes a pleaing call "PMA!!! HEEEEELP MEEEEEE!!"
TheMysteriousBox (6:36:19 PM): he's eating
TheMysteriousBox (6:36:21 PM): he'll be back
TheMysteriousBox (6:36:39 PM): o yea, you can trap me too, just to make it so I can't move for whatever reason
TheMysteriousBox (6:36:47 PM): and then like, release me for whatever reason after you caught PJBW :P
Numberonemole (6:36:54 PM): Naw, you and PA work together, should be fun
TheMysteriousBox (6:36:59 PM): yea I know
TheMysteriousBox (6:37:10 PM): it'll be like that, but you know I could just rescue PJBW right there ;-)
TheMysteriousBox (6:37:14 PM): just pretend somehow you trapped me :P
Numberonemole (6:37:46 PM): Dnoce wrapped Anti-Magic chains around you
TheMysteriousBox (6:37:53 PM): you can do that :P
TheMysteriousBox (6:38:06 PM): Dnoce and box have equal speeds :-)
TheMysteriousBox (6:38:10 PM): good rivalry indeed
TheMysteriousBox (6:38:48 PM): so we need several things to work
TheMysteriousBox (6:38:51 PM): 1. PMA comes into the chatroom
TheMysteriousBox (6:38:59 PM): 2. PMA responds to us
Numberonemole (6:39:01 PM): Ummm
Numberonemole (6:39:06 PM): He not go super cheap mode
Numberonemole (6:39:09 PM): Make this fun
TheMysteriousBox (6:39:11 PM): 3. PMA doesn't act all high and mighty
TheMysteriousBox (6:39:38 PM): 4. PMA also doesn't refuse, saying PJBW doesn't need help for whatever reason ( hopefully his lacking sense of reality will prevent this o_O)
TheMysteriousBox (6:40:14 PM): ooo ooo
TheMysteriousBox (6:40:18 PM): and then if we ever get this far
TheMysteriousBox (6:40:24 PM): you'll have this "ultimate move"
TheMysteriousBox (6:40:28 PM): in which we all think we're doomed
TheMysteriousBox (6:40:37 PM): and then fireworks come out and we all say happy birthday :-)
Numberonemole (6:40:39 PM): A rip in space time...
Numberonemole (6:40:43 PM): Alrighty then
TheMysteriousBox (6:41:33 PM): see? we're nice people planning for a nice aprty for PMA :D
Numberonemole (6:41:47 PM): Actually I'll enjoy thwartng him
Numberonemole (6:41:55 PM): I may get a chuckle at the happy B-Day thingy
TheMysteriousBox (6:42:00 PM): works for all of us :-)
Numberonemole (6:42:59 PM): Now all we gotta do is wait for the crazy Prof dude
TheMysteriousBox (6:43:13 PM): since you're the big bad guy, you're probably gonna hve to do the most typing
TheMysteriousBox (6:43:26 PM): as you have to still find a way to control PJBW while he's in chains (PJBW's likely to try to break out)
TheMysteriousBox (6:43:33 PM): while fending off us, therefore requiring a lot of typing
TheMysteriousBox (6:43:46 PM): though, on PJBW's part, his own inactivity will be an advantage this time
Numberonemole (6:44:50 PM): Yea
Numberonemole (6:44:58 PM): I'll have Evil Master guard him or some sort
Numberonemole (6:45:17 PM): And slap him around and such
TheMysteriousBox (6:45:31 PM): and if this really doesn't work out, maybe I'll just post something on my blog that would say how it *should have* worked
TheMysteriousBox (6:46:39 PM): and if PMA signs off, that would suck too :P
Numberonemole (6:47:04 PM): lol
Numberonemole (6:47:08 PM): Methinks not happen
TheMysteriousBox (6:47:20 PM): eh, he signs off pretty early, I think
TheMysteriousBox (6:47:23 PM): I dunno we'll see
Numberonemole (6:47:30 PM): For a gift, we give him PA doing the Chicken dance extended version on DVD
TheMysteriousBox (6:47:31 PM): when PJBW and I come back from eating
TheMysteriousBox (6:47:37 PM): Director's cut :o
Numberonemole (6:49:32 PM): With Interviews with the guys behind the scence
Numberonemole (6:49:40 PM): Why did he even do the Chicken box anyway?
Numberonemole (6:49:48 PM): *dance
TheMysteriousBox (6:51:05 PM): there was a note
TheMysteriousBox (6:51:09 PM): I had supposedly a special note
TheMysteriousBox (6:51:14 PM): from the future or something
TheMysteriousBox (6:51:23 PM): and I wouldn't give it to him
Numberonemole (6:51:25 PM): lol
TheMysteriousBox (6:51:26 PM): unless he did the chicken dance
TheMysteriousBox (6:51:50 PM): I actually typed this all up, because I knew PMA would have probably blasted me if I let him had the chance :p
TheMysteriousBox (6:51:59 PM): but everyone accepted it anyway XD
Numberonemole (6:52:02 PM): lol
TheMysteriousBox (6:52:07 PM): probably PMA was the only one against it
TheMysteriousBox (6:52:16 PM): obviously :p
Numberonemole (6:54:48 PM): lol
Numberonemole (6:55:05 PM): You know whats funny
Numberonemole (6:55:16 PM): The beach boys sing *sang* a song by Charlie Mansen

ProfJbWolf II (7:21:26 PM): But yea
Numberonemole (7:22:11 PM): Just pretend I attacked
ProfJbWolf II (7:22:22 PM): I need to see the attack
Numberonemole (7:22:23 PM): Go crazy
ProfJbWolf II (7:22:25 PM): Just make something up quick
Numberonemole (7:23:13 PM): Alright, a kick to the lower knee by Exo, followed by a weak Ki blast to the fast and Dnoce putting you in a "Sadness aura"
Numberonemole (7:23:28 PM): So you kinda, idk, not so confident
Numberonemole (7:23:58 PM): Make sure not respond till PA shows up
TheMysteriousBox (7:27:33 PM): hmm
(7:27:55 PM) pokemasterrj has entered the room.
TheMysteriousBox (7:28:13 PM): hi
ProfJbWolf II (7:28:28 PM): *Falls back, coughing up blood, faltering slightly as the Sadness aura starts to come into effect. Gasping he is almost uanble to dodge Exo's next attack, but does so just barely. Ki surrounds his hands like glowing balls
TheMysteriousBox (7:28:46 PM): ah darn they're at it again
ProfJbWolf II (7:28:49 PM): He releases a massive stream of energy at both Exo and Dnoce at the same time.*
Numberonemole (7:29:56 PM): *Exo, not taking a moment to even dodge the attack, takes it head on, rending most of his flesh to ash, but just heads foreward, smashing PRof in the face, and Dnoce grabs the falling Prof and is suddenly gone with him*
Numberonemole (7:30:27 PM): *Exo turns around to greet PA as all his skin is gone*A new arrival...have I met you before?
TheMysteriousBox (7:30:31 PM): Man... PJBW needs me to do everything... *begins forming a circle while holding up an ofuda to prepare for a new spell*
Numberonemole (7:31:11 PM): *Dnoce is back and wraps anti-magic chains around Box, giggling*
Numberonemole (7:31:20 PM): Dnoce@PA, hey I know you...
TheMysteriousBox (7:31:43 PM): hrm...
TheMysteriousBox (7:32:12 PM): oi PMA you think you can give a hand here? :P
pokemasterrj (7:32:26 PM): (Since when was I dragged in?)
TheMysteriousBox (7:32:27 PM): or are you so anti-warish that you won't try and helping your friends out
TheMysteriousBox (7:32:34 PM): well
TheMysteriousBox (7:32:44 PM): ok, one friend (PJBW) and a semi-friend (Me) :P
ProfJbWolf II (7:32:59 PM): (A friend of a friend!)
pokemasterrj (7:33:15 PM): Once again forced into battle... I didn't like it the first time, don't like it now.
Numberonemole (7:33:17 PM): *Exo sneers and walks up to PA, slapping him across the face as Dnoce laughs*
Numberonemole (7:33:31 PM): *Dnoces swings Prof around by the chains*
pokemasterrj (7:33:35 PM): Ash: *blocks* Nice try.
TheMysteriousBox (7:33:37 PM): Because you know, I kinda can't do anything without magic ^-^;;
pokemasterrj (7:34:23 PM): Ash: Exo, you look like you're about to fall apart or something
Numberonemole (7:34:34 PM): *Exo laughs again*So, Dnoce, did you kill that weak excuse for a Saiyan, or is father iteragoting him
Numberonemole (7:35:01 PM): *Exo skins heals* You obviously dont know my power*Exo rips off his own arm and it grows back, and he starts beating PA with his ripped off arm*
Numberonemole (7:35:17 PM): Your weaker than the Siayan...I can't believe I was taught to fear you
pokemasterrj (7:35:41 PM): Ash: *jumps back* Freak... Guess I'll try to end this fast. Kame...hame...HA!!! *nails Exo with the powerful ki attack*
TheMysteriousBox (7:35:58 PM): *whistles* are you even going to give me a hand here? >.>
Numberonemole (7:37:17 PM): *Dnoce runs at super speeds with Box, as the Ki attack rips a hole in Exo, and it heals up just as quickly as formed*You are much weak*Exo spits acid in PA's face and begins to fly off*Lets just kill the Siayan before anything else
Numberonemole (7:37:29 PM): Happens, we dun gotta waste our time on this has been
pokemasterrj (7:37:57 PM): Ash: *wipes the acid away* I may be a tad rusty, but I can still fight...cowards...
TheMysteriousBox (7:38:58 PM): hey hey! *looks back* it helps if you can follow us, ya know :P
Numberonemole (7:38:59 PM): Dnoce:Keep going Exo, father just wants the Saiayan, he doesn't think PA will try to rescue him anyway, he can fend for himself
pokemasterrj (7:39:05 PM): Ash: Let's see you handle this! LifeSword3! *a huge blade of pure energy forms in his hands* AreaSteal! *he warps over to Exo and slices him in two with the attack*
Numberonemole (7:39:08 PM): *Dnoce drops box with a thd on the ground*
TheMysteriousBox (7:39:18 PM): ...well that was convenient
TheMysteriousBox (7:39:46 PM): I know! *whistles, and a bunch of digletts come along and take the chains off of him*
pokemasterrj (7:40:06 PM): Ash: Could a has-been do something like that?
Numberonemole (7:40:12 PM): Dnoce:You hold him back, I'll warn father to fortify the base anyway
TheMysteriousBox (7:40:49 PM): hmm... *watches Dnoce flies off, then follows quickly but silently behind Dnoce to find out where she's heading*
Numberonemole (7:41:21 PM): Exo:*he grows from the bigger chunch of himself, and the other falls down the the ground*Hmm, I've meet better*in a flash, PA find himself wrapped around Exo's tail, feeling dark Ki enter his body*
Numberonemole (7:41:52 PM): *Dnoces slaps more chains around Box, as he falls down to the ground again cursing as Dnoce shakes her fingure*
TheMysteriousBox (7:42:31 PM): *...unfortunately for dnoce, she finds out it is only a piece of paper that she has chained and continues to not know the whearbouts of him*
pokemasterrj (7:42:56 PM): Ash: I've already dealt with darkness enough... *powers up enough to break free*
Numberonemole (7:44:42 PM): *Dnoce is quickly at the "secret base" and doesn't know Box is following him*Exo:A has been and nevr will be again*turns SS1 and his red hair turns purple and his teeth and claws grow as he starts to slash the air, sending Ki slashe
Numberonemole (7:44:44 PM): s at PA*
pokemasterrj (7:45:32 PM): Ash: *pulls out a beamsword and deflects the waves* I still have some skills
TheMysteriousBox (7:46:33 PM): *suddenly, a random diglett with a leaflet on its head pops up and a hologram of box appears.* We welcome you to diglett underground travelling services! This will be anonstop trip to the secret hidden base where PJBW is.*PMA falls*
pokemasterrj (7:46:39 PM): Ash: This one's from Zero's book. *rushes Exo and seems to disappear, reappearing behind him as an energy spike cuts right through him*
TheMysteriousBox (7:46:46 PM): *a split second later, he arrives at the base*
TheMysteriousBox (7:46:54 PM): or that :P
TheMysteriousBox (7:46:59 PM): lag time sucks
Numberonemole (7:47:35 PM): *Exo laughs, and suddenly, falls to the ground, and trembles looking at his injury, seeing most of his body disenergrated*I didn't even..power..up*he falls uncoinces*
TheMysteriousBox (7:48:19 PM): Thank you for travelling Diglett underground travelling services! We hope you use us again!
pokemasterrj (7:48:42 PM): Ash: Now to find Prof. I can sense him somewhere in here...
ProfJbWolf II (7:49:14 PM): *The Saiya-jin's voice cleary heard as he bellows.* OI YOU GET THAT DAMN NEEDLE AWAY FROM ME SAL!
pokemasterrj (7:49:22 PM): Ash: *follows Prof.'s ki signal and voice through the area*
Numberonemole (7:49:33 PM): *evil laughter is heard, and PA bumps into evil master*
pokemasterrj (7:49:58 PM): Ash: *and insert a slash from the beamsword here* I have no time for true has-beens!
TheMysteriousBox (7:50:12 PM): *Box suddenly appears out of nowhere and catches up to PMA* Only one? well that's no fun, I'll just watch PMA
Numberonemole (7:50:17 PM): Evil Master:*sighs*...I should have trained*
pokemasterrj (7:50:44 PM): Ash: *reaches where Prof. is* Prof.?
Numberonemole (7:50:55 PM): *the autmatic defence turrens begin firing at PA as a recording laguhs at him*
Numberonemole (7:51:14 PM): Sal2 from recording"I thought you had retired...oh well, look harder*
TheMysteriousBox (7:51:34 PM): *suddenly all the defenses shut down*
pokemasterrj (7:51:37 PM): Ash: *showing off his sword skills by deflecting the blasts back at the turrets*
TheMysteriousBox (7:51:43 PM): *as an electric surge from a piece of paper
TheMysteriousBox (7:51:52 PM): on a wall short circuits all the connections*
pokemasterrj (7:52:02 PM): Ash: *goes and finds the real Prof.*
Numberonemole (7:52:31 PM): *one by one, the turrents are deroyed, and a giggling laughter is heard as PA find knat like blows to him as Dnoce harrases him*
TheMysteriousBox (7:52:43 PM): No thanks! Hmph! *takes the piece of paper and sips some tea*
pokemasterrj (7:53:08 PM): Ash: Dnoce, I'd rather not hurt you
pokemasterrj (7:53:20 PM): Ash: So just get out of my way and let me find Prof.
pokemasterrj (7:54:01 PM): Ash: In fact... *uses Instant Transmission to get to Prof....well, instantly*
TheMysteriousBox (7:54:22 PM): I dunno... my transmission reciever piece of paper is picking up static...
Numberonemole (7:54:24 PM): *PA find the transmission doesn't work*Reality warping..nop telaportation
Numberonemole (7:54:32 PM): *Dnoce laughs*
Numberonemole (7:54:39 PM): That won't work..only I know where he is...
Numberonemole (7:54:56 PM): You have to catch me first..and your so...SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW, and, well, old
pokemasterrj (7:54:56 PM): Ash: I can sense where he is, you know
Numberonemole (7:55:08 PM): Really
Numberonemole (7:55:18 PM): If that is true
Numberonemole (7:55:24 PM): Then why are you lost
Numberonemole (7:55:31 PM): Your bluff
Numberonemole (7:55:32 PM): ing
TheMysteriousBox (7:55:40 PM): I dunno, I can't sense him, but I think I can draw a map of this place
TheMysteriousBox (7:55:47 PM): *takes out crayons and a larger piece of paper and begins drawing*
Numberonemole (7:55:52 PM): *Dnoce suddenly has PA's laser sword and is playing with it*
Numberonemole (7:56:19 PM): I'd leave if I were you, unless you want to be impaled on this bad boy
pokemasterrj (7:56:25 PM): Ash: And as for being slow... *uses Agility, grabs the sword before Dnoce knows what's happened, and takes off in a flash towards where Prof. is being held*
TheMysteriousBox (7:56:53 PM): SO...ka... he's heading over to the mutations lab
TheMysteriousBox (7:56:58 PM): *shrug*
TheMysteriousBox (7:57:07 PM): Let's see... *walks in the opposite direction*
pokemasterrj (7:58:36 PM): Ash: *winds up doubling back* Geez, this place is annoying...
Numberonemole (7:58:38 PM): *Dnoce cuts him off, and trips him, sending him skidding across the floor*Hehehe
Numberonemole (7:59:05 PM): *PA suddenly finds himself in boxers as Dnoce is wearing all his clothing*
Numberonemole (7:59:08 PM): SO so slow...
pokemasterrj (7:59:11 PM): Ash: ...
pokemasterrj (7:59:23 PM): Ash: *uses AreaSteal to quickly grab his clothes back*
Numberonemole (7:59:33 PM): HEY!!
pokemasterrj (7:59:50 PM): Ash: A moment I actually wish Ash-chan was around
Numberonemole (8:00:07 PM): NEVER TOUCH A GIRL's CLOTHING *she goes super bitch and starts slapping the crap outa him*You'll never find Prof now, *she walks off wistling*
pokemasterrj (8:00:31 PM): Ash: *grabs Dnoce* Oh really?
ProfJbWolf II (8:01:00 PM): *Meanwhile Prof is straining against a bunch of bonds when Box enters.* OI BOXO GET ME OUTTA HERE!
TheMysteriousBox (8:01:08 PM): Ah see! I was right!
TheMysteriousBox (8:01:21 PM): the torture chamber and prisoner's den
Numberonemole (8:02:08 PM): Hey..leggo!!LET GO OF ME*she kicks him at speed he cannot imagine, but they do very little*LET ME GO!!
Numberonemole (8:02:34 PM): *as a dark figure ovettaked boxs in the torture room*
TheMysteriousBox (8:03:23 PM): *gets thrown into the same chamber room as PJBW, while PJBW shakes his head in disappointment* Well, YOU never said anything XP
pokemasterrj (8:04:05 PM): Ash: *eventually reaches the room* Despite Dnoce's interference, I made it
ProfJbWolf II (8:04:36 PM): THEN GET ME OUT OF THESE DAMN BONDS!
ProfJbWolf II (8:04:41 PM): Oh and Box too...
Numberonemole (8:04:43 PM): *Sal2 laughs as he and Ash2 block his path toe Prof*
Numberonemole (8:04:45 PM): *to
Numberonemole (8:04:58 PM): Well, I see you made it, well, good job
pokemasterrj (8:05:15 PM): I've got no time for this
Numberonemole (8:05:20 PM): Meet my newest plane, a rip in time space...
Numberonemole (8:05:35 PM): I've decided if I can't have power...no one can
pokemasterrj (8:05:54 PM): Ash: You've really lost it this time...
Numberonemole (8:06:02 PM): Within minutes, the universe will collapse in on itself...
pokemasterrj (8:06:18 PM): Ash: Not if we have anything to say about it
Numberonemole (8:06:29 PM): *Ash2 steps up to PA, and slams him into the other side of the room, keeping his silet vigil*
pokemasterrj (8:06:53 PM): Ash: *gets back up and fires a shot that misses Sal and Ash2 completely*
pokemasterrj (8:07:15 PM): *however, said blast hits the controls for Prof's and Box's bonds*
TheMysteriousBox (8:07:31 PM): oh goodie, I can drink tea now
Numberonemole (8:08:19 PM): *Sal2 laughs as the rip in time space begins to open, the entire room shaking, and a whirlwind forming*
ProfJbWolf II (8:08:28 PM): Finally!
pokemasterrj (8:08:34 PM): Ash: I won't let you do this
pokemasterrj (8:08:53 PM): Ash: And if Exo and Dnoce knew what you were up to, they'd probably try to stop it too
Numberonemole (8:09:00 PM): *the void opens, in a huge explosion of light and power*
Numberonemole (8:09:16 PM): *and a sign that says "HAPPY BIRTHDAY PA* comes out*
Numberonemole (8:09:32 PM): *a table with cake, refreshments and party favors appears*
pokemasterrj (8:09:34 PM): Ash: *sweatdrops*
ProfJbWolf II (8:09:40 PM): *Laughs* Nicely done
TheMysteriousBox (8:09:41 PM): naa, I think if Dnoce and Exo knew what was going on, they'd still let PMA do this. Me and PJBW as well, eh Prof?
ProfJbWolf II (8:09:54 PM): *Nods*
Numberonemole (8:10:01 PM): *the maze is revealed to be Sal2's spacw staion dinner quarters*
TheMysteriousBox (8:10:15 PM): That was really nice show there PMA! *slaps him on the back*
Numberonemole (8:10:17 PM): *and characters from all over the ASB War show up, along with many others*
pokemasterrj (8:10:48 PM): This was a bit much, though
Numberonemole (8:10:51 PM): PIN THE TAIL ON THE SAIYAN!!
TheMysteriousBox (8:10:59 PM): we knew you could handle it :-)
Numberonemole (8:11:05 PM): *Prof is tied up by Dnoce*
Numberonemole (8:11:11 PM): ME FIRST!!!!!
pokemasterrj (8:11:14 PM): *sighs*
ProfJbWolf II (8:11:24 PM): H-HEHY! *Splits the ropes.* Oi, you ain't pinnin' no tail on me!
pokemasterrj (8:11:44 PM): (And now back to regularly scheduled RP-ing *drags Prof. back*)
Numberonemole (8:11:46 PM): BLOW OUT THE CANDLES AND MAKE A WISH!! NOW!!
ProfJbWolf II (8:11:59 PM): FIRST YOUR WISH!
TheMysteriousBox (8:12:00 PM): eeh
TheMysteriousBox (8:12:03 PM): I don't want him to make a wish
TheMysteriousBox (8:12:05 PM): actually >.>
pokemasterrj (8:12:08 PM): Oh okay. *blows the candles out, keeping a safe distance*
Numberonemole (8:12:24 PM): *the cake explodes*
Numberonemole (8:12:26 PM): Dammit...
Numberonemole (8:12:48 PM): *brings in real cake*Okay, we got, human flavored...Chcocalte, and Vanilla
TheMysteriousBox (8:12:50 PM): So yea! anyway! just ta tell ya, whether friend or foe, whether ya like it or not
TheMysteriousBox (8:12:59 PM): we're always gonna stick ta you PMA :P
Numberonemole (8:13:05 PM): Who wants Human flavored?
TheMysteriousBox (8:13:16 PM): dunno, never tried that
ProfJbWolf II (8:13:24 PM): ...You dind't use real humans did you?
Numberonemole (8:13:33 PM): Uhh..yea
pokemasterrj (8:13:42 PM): ...That right there is enough to make me lose my appetite...
ProfJbWolf II (8:13:43 PM): ...They were HEALTHY right?
TheMysteriousBox (8:13:55 PM): I hear monkeys taste a lot like humans
ProfJbWolf II (8:13:58 PM): ...,
TheMysteriousBox (8:14:10 PM): PRESENT TIME!
ProfJbWolf II (8:14:14 PM): I'll just take the chocolate...*Cuts a slice and then takes the entire cake.*
Numberonemole (8:14:19 PM): Yes, chose which one first?
TheMysteriousBox (8:14:28 PM): mine? Sal2? PJBW's? :D
pokemasterrj (8:14:40 PM): I'll take...well, safest one would probably be Prof.'s
Numberonemole (8:15:08 PM): All of them...
Numberonemole (8:15:12 PM): You have to unwrap all
TheMysteriousBox (8:15:31 PM): so you'll just unwrap PJBW's first right :P
pokemasterrj (8:15:34 PM): Yeah
Numberonemole (8:16:07 PM): *waits for Prof to say what it is*
ProfJbWolf II (8:16:09 PM): *Throws a pair of boxes to him.* One of them has an instant spring of drowned man in it and the other is a pack of condoms.
pokemasterrj (8:16:25 PM): Why either of them?
ProfJbWolf II (8:16:33 PM): Because you seem to have a problem with both
pokemasterrj (8:16:36 PM): I don't mess with Jusenkyo and...I won't even comment
ProfJbWolf II (8:16:42 PM): *Grins before going back to demolishing the cake.*
Numberonemole (8:16:48 PM): LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
Numberonemole (8:16:59 PM): Who next who next who next!!
pokemasterrj (8:17:10 PM): *tries Box's next*
TheMysteriousBox (8:17:40 PM): *throws a piece of paper at PMA, with the only words "Don't worry, you're secret's still safe with me for another year"*
TheMysteriousBox (8:17:55 PM): If you forgot which secret, I'll tell ya over IM :-)
pokemasterrj (8:17:58 PM): *sweatdrops* More no comment...
pokemasterrj (8:18:03 PM): Nevermind
Numberonemole (8:18:08 PM): O_o
Numberonemole (8:18:12 PM): *is confused*

ASB Vets Short Shorts: Act 1- The Drama

Ok, at first I was gonna do an article on death because one of my chickens just died, but I got over it and I figured you guys wouldn't care much for it anyway. So I'll just make this statement before I go on: The death of one hurts most to the people who were close to and cared for him/her/it. Without further ado, let's get on with this whacked idea I came up in chem class today! ( I really should pay attention to class though >.> )
-----
TMB: Hey, PBJW! What do you have there!
PJBW: Oh, this? I'm building something of a surveillence camera of several dimensions, however, it's not working quite the way I want it yet...
TMB: So it's something like the dimension traveller?
PJBW: No no, supposedly we're able to monitor specific dimensions carefully, you know, just in case there's danger, since we've been doing lots of interdimensional travel, I figured we might as well monitor not only this dimension but others as well...
TMB: Ooooooooo... wat does this button do????????
PJBW: NO YOU IDIOT IT'S NOT DONE YE---

Poof.

The scenary suddenly changes to something of a meeting room. In there, a human version of Sal2, in a business suit, stares angrily down onto a report with statistical graphs of some sort. Then Sal2 throws the article on the desk and begins ranting angrily at one of his subordinates at the results.
Sal2: What is this?!? He should be bankrupt by now!!! Why is he still thriving??? Not only that, but he's competing with our company, E.V.I.L.!!! E.G.O. is still a threat to E.V.I.L.!!! Everything I planned a month earlier to gain a monopoly and bankrupt that bastard failed!! Why?!? WHY!!!!
Person1: Well... Sir... there's been a rumor going through that one of the people here have been leaking secrets...
Sal2: Impossible! I developed all my plans at my home, made sure no one outside could access it, our own company workers!! There's no one...
Person1: There IS someone...
Sal2: Eyes Widen. It CAN'T be...
-----
Sal2 arrives back home, slamming the door behind him. He approaches his daughter, Jenna, violently after she greets him.
Jenna: Welcome ho--!??!?
Sal2: Jenna. Recently our company has been doing rather poorly, despite predicted results earlier that we should outcompete our competition in less than a month. Now, this company is thriving with possibly our own productivity and products, while our company is barely keeping up!! Do you know anything about this?!?
Jenna: Well, maybe if you stopped making all those secret plans to try and completely destroy PMA's company and instead paid more attention to me...
Sal2: So you DO know about it! And the plans I had stored in my database!! WHY, Jenna, WHY?!?
Jenna: Oh Daddy, couldn't you just merge and we'd all be a happy corporation together?
Sal2: Are you out of your mind? THE PMA who allegedly blocked me off of business opportunities while in college, making it incredibly difficult for me to climb the corporate ladder? I should find any way possible to crush him, in almost any means! Why do you want me to do such an absurd thing?!?
Jenna: Because... I love him!! *dramatic music*
-----
Stage change. This time, the area is a small cafe containing a bar with several stools. PJBW, dressed in a rather drab business suit and carrying a worn out suitcase, takes a couple of drinks served by Engina, dressed as a cafe waitress, before turning to Box. Box is the bar manager, dressed in the appropriate suit while wiping some glasses before preparing another batch.
PJBW: I don't know... I don't really trust being with him and especially working under him in such a company but... I just don't know...
Box: Why are you still with him? He's selfish, cares the most about himself than anyone else in his company, and would do anything to get what he wants...
PJBW: That's the problem... You see, we're rivalling against another company, E.V.I.L. and we're faring pretty well, but that's because... well...
Box: You want to quit because you guys are doing well?
PJBW: No, it's that... Talks in a lowered voice. He's been seeing the daughter of the manager of E.V.I.L. lately. It seems I've been the only one who noticed her coming in and out of his office. I don't know what he's up do, but...
Box: Drops the glass and breaks it. Takes a step forward and looks into PJBW's eyes. And you're still with him?!? No wonder, I agree with your judgement! You should quit and find a new job immediately!
PJBW: Well, there's a problem...
Box: Yea Yea, childhood friends, eh? I don't know though, PMA really doesn't seem to be the type of person I would trust, but--
PJBW: No, it's not only that...
Box: Raises an eyebrow. No?
PJBW: Well... you see... I kind of feel sorry for... PMA's... mother right now... she's a bit down from the death of PMA's father...
Box: Turns away and begins cleaning up the glass. ...You must be drunk. I think you've had too much to drink for today. You better go home and take a rest, then think over about quitting PMA's company.
PJBW: Yea... yea, I suppose you're right.
As PJBW stumbles out the door, he accidently hits another man who arrives in a trenchcoat and hat. After saying sorry, PJBW steps out of the door. The man in the trenchcoat sits in a stool and orders a couple of drinks. After 2-3 cups, he takes off his hat to reveal himself to be Sal2.
Sal2: ...It's not possible, how could my own daughter...?
Box: Ah, so it's true, your daughter has been seeing the president of E.G.O.
Sal2: It's gotten out already?!?!?
Box: No, an employee of E.G.O. just left. Don't worry, from what I know of him, he won't be leaking out any info against his employer; he's a quiet type, usually, anyway, except when he gets drunk...
Sal2: Eerg... if this gets out, my company is ruined for sure! And I don't know what I can do with Jenna... this is...
Box: Does Jenna know PMA has a wife?
Sal2: He has a wife?
Box: Sure he does! Sabrina... I think was her name... he even has a daughter of his own... yea, PJBW talked about it a couple times, says it gets annoying at times where PMA constantly refers to them, talking how much he loves her and so...
Sal2: Then... then he must be using Jenna!! THAT BASTARD!!
Box: Shrugs. Pretty messed up guy if you asked me.
Sal2: Hmm... So he likes to play this way... Fine, I dislike resorting to such measures, but if it even involves my own daughter... Do you by chance know the address of PMA's house?
Box: Engina?
Engina: Comes over with a piece of paper, acts as if she were to hand it to Sal2, then quickly switches hands with her other hand empty and palm up. Tip please? Giggles.
Sal2: What's this?!?
Box: Shrugs. Well, I did give you a bit of underground info...
Sal2 grumbles, then hands over a twenty dollar bill to the waitress. The waitress gives him the slip with the address, and Sal2 heads off, ready to get his revenge....

Up next, Act 2- The Mystery in ASB Vets Short Shorts!!

(Yes, I'm bored :P)

Science: Creativity vs. Fundamentalism

On monday, I went to an interesting (optional) lecture on how science is not as fundamentalist as people may think. Science changes all the time, and if you really think about it, it does: how many times even in just my lifetime (18 years) has something that was once thought solid in science change? I mean, new things get discovered all the time... I hope I can change some rules of science as my life progresses as well. It would be fun.

Anyway! some interesting things I learned from the lecture! Top-Down, Down-Top, and Same level theory!
Down-Top Theory: A chemistry experiment goes wrong because there was excess NaOH in the HCl solution, causing the phenopherephelin (sp? the pink thing) to react and cause a bright pink color and thus adjusting the calculations in the final result.
Same Level Theory: A chemisty experiment goes wrong because the student was sleeping and forgot to turn off the titration.
Top-Down Theory: A chemistry experiment goes wrong because the authorities were not strict enough in enforcing the the lab directors to oversee the students, therefore blaming the school for it's unappropriate distribution of it's tution earnings on the school administration. WE SHOULD OVERTHROW THE SCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS!!!

Ok, that was fun.

also, there are four different dimensions (is that right?) in this world:

Materialistic Dimension: Particles and actual, tangible objects.
Socialistic Dimension: Human interaction, social status, generally human emotions goes here too
Orderal Dimension: Laws of Physics and "this is supposed to happen" goes here.
Mathematical Dimension: calculations, numbers and adding them to the laws above, and any other math you've learned in math class goes here

I found these multiple layers (That's a better word!) of the world to be really interesting.


I look look forward to a more variable science foundation in the future. :D

Hmm......

So tomorrow there's a rather large bio exam, the last thing I want to be doing is posting a random post in my blog.

...


So anyway, I just learned that my sister has a xanga, which kinda surprised me, but then again it should have been fairly obvious. Ah well, The anime Girl's Bravo is extremely perverted in a pg-13 sort of way, but quite hilarious. I should play less pokemon, it's taking up most of my study time and I could be doing other work... In fact, I should goto sleep right now. O well. Recap on stuff I have to do!

Biology- Exam tomorrow
Chemistry- Practice homework problems, Web Quiz
Writ- Essay. AGAIN!! -_-
Environmental studies- ESSAY AS WELL!! Well, at least it's only the topic sentence for now.

Koi.

~~No! It's Plasmodium! Which has two different meanings! One's malaria and another is a large coenocytic blob of Myxogastrida cells! AAARRGGHHH!!

ASBW: Breaking News from BTDN (Bored To Death Network)

Box: *pats the microphone a few times* This thing is working now right? Come on the signal can't be THAT bad here... we're only in the middle of outer space... wait, we're on? All right! This is reporter Box from BTDN bringing you live coverage of the latest war going on in the ASBW realm. No, it's not Sal2 blowing up Earth once more or a dimensional rift to a never-before-seen dimension *comments to some sideperson offscreen* that ALWAYS seems to happen in every war, doesn't it? How a new dimension never discovered before suddenly possesses extreme power to rule all dimensional universes...*returns to the screen* Anyway! We're here at Sal2's Space Station in preparation for the greatest (because it's the only) trial ever to have occurred here in our lovely universe. The prosecutor Pokemaster Ash and the defendant Prof. Jb Wolf seemed to have arrived already, as well as the jury, we are now only waiting on the judge... Hey, I think I know some of these people on the Jury! Look! There's RiOrius... Pokemaniacbill... Misagi! Hey Misagi!! Ah, if isn't Ditto Maste... Ah, our Judge Arrives!!
*the doors fling wide open*
Sal2: CHAOS IN THE COURTROOM! *widespread mania from Sal2's warriors begins wrecking the room with PMA and PJBW and everyone else trying to fight them off, when one of Sal2's warriors whispers something into Sal2's ear* whoops! sorry... I meant, order in the court!
PMA: WTF, this guy is our judge? Who the heck chose him as our judge, he should be the last person I'm consulting for this...
PJBW: He did... *points to Box*
Sal2: I SAID ORDER!! OR ELSE!! Now... proceed with the trial. Pokemaster Ash, you declare the defendant, Prof. Jb Wolf, guilty of disregarding previous prominent affairs dealing with the history of this here ASB Universe which I intend to conquer, and therefore providing inappropriate and insufficient information on the history of Destiney's powers, correct?
Box: *in a whispering tone* please note that the spelling and grammer errors were all corrected by BTDN to the convenience of the onwatchers.
Sal2: What's that?!? Guards! Blast him! *guards fire a beam of energy, charcoaling Box a temporary black color* Anyway, proceed with the trial.
Pokemaster Ash: First, I would like to state how utterly apalled at how Prof. Jb Wolf can misinterpret such a significant event! Most of the entire ASB War has been affected by these events and you don't even have a log of them in that huge database of yours?!?
Prof. Jb Wolf: Excuse me, but I DO have a log of these things, I just don't happen to memorize the entire history and every single insiginificant event that occurred. Remember that during your birth I was in another dimension, so it would make perfect sense if I had just happened to leave that out in the origins of my wife.
Pokemaster Ash: Not the origins of my own life, but the origins of this entire universe! The mere fact that you misplaced the exact location of the birth of TPM is extraordinary! Can you imagine what would have happened if one or the other did not happen?
Sal2: *snaps his fingers* if only "the other" didn't happen... say... when WAS the birth of PMA?
Jenna (in an attorney's suit with a pair of spectacles, holding some important evidence): According to PMA's birth certificate, it was at the approximately around the same time as the birth of TPM universe, your honor.
Sal2: That's not very informative. Is there anything else on PMA's records?
Jenna: None, your honor.
Box: *side comment* PMA has a birth ceritificate? o_O
PJBW: I think we'll see how important this birth is in a proper manner.
PMA: I agree. I call forth PJBW's wife and my own mother, Destiney, to the stand.
*murmurs go around in the crowd as Destiney approaches the witness stand, puts her hand over a weird staff like thing*
Jenna: Do you swear to tell the truth and nothing but the truth, lest the gods drain all of your godly powers and banish you as a mortal for the rest of your remaining years?
Destiney: I do.
PMA: Destiney. Do you remember when I was born?
Destiney: I do.
PMA: Is it not a significant event in history?
Destiney: Yes it is.
PMA: Does it not coincide with the creation of TPM, which in turn has allowed for all of us to exist? NOT, I state, after the arrival of Eiolia to this dimension.
Destiney: Yes.
PMA: I am done.
*PMA sits back down, PJBW stands up and begins pacing in front of Destiney*
PJBW: Destiney, do you remember the exact time and date and place of PMA's birth?
Destiney: Yes I do.
*murmurs go through the courtroom*
Sal2: Order! Order! Wow this is fun.
PJBW: However, do you think it is required for every other person in this room-- in this entire universe-- to remember your son's birth?
Destiney: No. I believe PMA's existence is important, but I will not force others to recognize his birth as if he were a god or some significant religious figure.
PJBW: I am through, you may sit down.
PMA: I object!--
Sal2: Objection overruled.
PMA: Wait why?!?
Sal2: Because you didn't address me properly
PMA: THIS COURT IS BIASED!!!
PJBW: PMA, you only need to say "your honor" -_-...
PMA: Ugh... I object... your honor... *hacks and coughs as if he was dying, then recovers* I never said that my birth should be remembered down to the exact time and date, though it would certainly be appreciated. However, the important facts involved with my birth, as well as connect to it, such as the creation of TPM must be taken into account by everyone. PJBW had believed that TPM came after the current dimension we know as Eiolia existed.
Sal2: Objection substained.
PJBW: Very well... I call forth Sabrina PMA's own wife, to the stand.
*Destiney sits down, Sabrina does the whole vow thing and goes to the witness stand*
PJBW: Sabrina, do you think that people who happened to be ignorant or forgetful of events should be punished?
Sabrina: No, I don't think that's right.
PJBW: In fact, I would like to ask you a few questions about... myself, if you would please. Would you happen to know the birth date of myself? How about Salvester2? I'm sure he has been contributing to this dimension for quite a while, whether for good or for evil. Or even Box, who if I'm not mistaken in my ignorant and forgetful mind, started the whole blimey thing by attempting to blow up a tower in ASB Central?
Sabrina: No, I do not remember or know any of these dates.
PJBW: *turns towards Sal2* Then how can PMA expect every one of us to know his birthdate, or even anything remotely close to it? I think PMA should appreciate that I even acknowledged his daughter's 18th birthday by arriving at her party--
PMA: Excuse me, your honor! *coughs and hacks again* But this has nothing to do with the trial at all. I told you it was not about my birthday, it involves it's coincidence with the creation of TPM--
PJBW: I'm getting to that.
Sal2: Objection overruled.
PJBW: So PMA accuses me of mistaking the creation of TPM with the arrival of Eiolia when in actuality is his birthday. How, then, do we know if Eiolia did not arrive at the same time as PMA's birthday? I believe it is uncertain even for you, PMA, to know when Eiolia came to be. How can you directly claim that I am wrong and you are right? Sabrina, how do you know the arrival of Eiolia did not coincide with the arrival of TPM, like I said?
Sabrina: I do not know.
PJBW: I rest my case. *sits down*
Box: *whispers to the camera* Ouch! PJBW's smmokin!
PMA: PJBW, not bad, not bad. Sabrina, you can sit down too, I got this thing covered. *Sabrina gets out of the witness stand* However, your own statement will turn against you. You yourself said that Eiolia is a vague issue that not much, other than the Eiolians, can tell you about. What makes you so sure that Eiolia didn't come into this dimension till much later, after TPM was born? Or that it was in this dimensional space before TPM came to being, only waiting for TPM to arrive?
RiOrius: Hey um... I wanna ask something...
Sal2: Has the jury made their decision? Can I cut off someone's head yet?
pokemaniacbill: Eer... no. We only wanted to know why that, if Eiolia is such a vague planet in history, that there are no Eiolians that know of the history of Eiolia.
Sal2: ... *looks at PJBW*
PJBW: ... *looks at PMA*
PMA: ... *looks at Sabrina*
Sabrina: ... *looks at Destiney*
Destiney: ... *looks at Box*
Box: ...what?
Sal2: Very well, jury, make your decisions, and I apologize for this inconvenience and lack of evidence that we have at the court today. Arrive at your conclusion and I shall arrive at the appropriate... punishment. Hohohohohohoho...
-----
Making a mountain out of a digletthill... my specialty. XD Maybe I'll make a conclusion after a bunch of interviews with the "jury" :P.

First day of College!! :O

Most of you guys probably don't know that I moved into university dorms last week and started school today. Well, now you guys know. :P I suppose since it's fresh in my mind, I should give a brief account of what happened today, partly for you college-bound high schoolers (I know there are several, come to USC! We'll all be one happy ASB Vets Family!! XD) to show how life is eer... sorta like, and partly just for my own records and since I've learned to BS so much that I need to BS on my first day of school. So anyway! My classes include:

General Organismal Biology: This was my first class, and, in comparison with the other classes I'm taking, perhaps the most "expected" out of my classes. What I mean by expected is that all the rules and syllabus that they went over seemed pretty expected. I knew college was a bit different from high school and raised my expectations, and in general, general bio showed it. (haha, pun :P ) One thing that was kind of surprising, though, was the grading curve they presented. Now, at first it seemed optimistic, except that our lab instructor is a pretty pessemistic person and put it in a more negative view. Generally, its like this: the top 10% of the class, no matter WHAT their score is, gets an A. The rest gets below an A, no matter what their score is. In essence, its a huge promoter of competition in our class, which already pretty huge. This means even if I get 900 points out of 915 poinnts (total amount of points in the class), if 10% of the class has 905 to 915 points, I get a B... or worse, possibly. Period, no questions asked. O.O This is going to be tough.... ;_;

General Chemistry: The first 15 minutes flew over my head, and it took me a while to gather what they said. In general, they told me to get a list of items and this is what we're supposed to do for homework and this is how tests are examed in this form of sentence that I just presented to you really really quickly without me having enough time to process everything in my mind before they went on to the next section.
SO!
But after that, it was... very very surprising. I have a hunch that, besides the hard work and the harder tests, I'm going to like this class. The first day of class we poured liquid nitrogen on carpet floors, broke brittle flowers, and blew up balloons filled with Hydrogen and Oxygen. Wow, much different from my own chem class at High School. It was fun.

Writing: Arg, I STILL have to take writing after all my torture in High School IB English??? AAAAAAAARRRGGGGGG... To make things worse, this class comes at 12 - 12:50, a very inconvenient time, because that's usually lunch time. Plus, from 11 to 12 I have no class, and from 1 to 2 I have no class, so its smack right in the middle of lunchtime. Not only that, this class is FAR from my residential suites (yes, I live in suites :P) so I have to go ALL the way there, and if I want to get something, ALL the way back. Which is bad, especially since today I went to the right building on time, but forgot my registration schedule and had no idea what room to go into. My gosh this was was bad, I had to go ALL the way back to my dorm and get it... luckily, I had a bike so I wouldn't have been as late as I might have been if I didn't, but still... 15 minutes late. I BLAME THIS ALL ON ENGLISH!!! >.<
And the scary thing about it is... I think I might like this class. T_T It seems mostly revolved around debates and opinions and it coincides with my next class I'll talk about, so the essay topics I'm going to be writing about might actually be... interesting. o.o You know what's also weird? The teacher doesn't penalize for late papers. Although after a paper is late for a week you have to talk with him, but still! No Penalties! For late papers!! CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT??? AND I'M IN COLLEGE!!!
*ahem* ok next class, and last "countable" class on my list.
Environmental Studies! Social Impacts based on the environment! And something like that: The teacher of this class is pretty crude and unconventional, and also highly sarcastic and humorous. That's a plus :P However this class requires me to read the newspaper everyday. -_-;; This is an annoyance. But overall the class seems to talk about very interesting issues, and holds debates every week. Though, this lecture class was a lot more huge than I thought it would be... Whatever. I'll see what comes of it.

Now, the last thing I want to be doing is dropping classes. >.< I never had that experience, and I hope I never will. Yes, if you ask my number 1 college fear, its not being able to follow a class. Right now it seems okay, and I feel kinda humbled because I'm not taking any "honors" courses (yes, there are a few honors courses that are said to be better etc.) but, as one of the advisors told me, to take a regular class and get an A is a lot better than to take an honors and get a B. So, right now I'm not asking too much and making much sarcastic comments... I'm just going to try and work hard, balance my time, and hopefully do well in college.

Balance my time, meaning, of course... work and RO.

>.<

RO...so...fun... must control playtime...

But I have no work for today and a whole day off tomorrow, so.... PLAYTIME!!! XP

HI everyone!!! (whoever still reads, probably no one)

ok, lets make this short and simple.

For the past month, where have I been? Well... Ragnarok Online says it all, I suppose. YOu don't see me on the Pokemasters boards anymore, not in mirc chatrooms, nor out "hanging out" (wait... I never did that in the first place). Nope, that's because Ragnarok Online is so... so... animeish that it makes a simple MMORPG game like it so fun. I mean... YOU CAN DO SWEATDROPS!!! HOW MANY GAMES (much less, MMORPGs) CAN YOU BE SO ANIMEISH!!! IT CANNOT BE BEATEN!!!

...

Too bad you have to pay for it. T_T

In any case, I'm going off to China this saturday, so expect another 4 weeks of inactivity. Unless I get bored and type something up in the middle of china with a 56 k modem.

Random information: there are a total of 3 Internet Service Providers in all of China. China has 1/5th the world population. Compare this to like 5000 ISPs in America, which a much smaller population than China. Fun Stuff eh? :D

Ok, random thingy time!

Kimi Ga Nozomu Eien (Anime)

I have come to the conclusion that every main character in this anime is stupid in some shape or form.

Takayuki: A plain idiot before the accident. If he says he's going to do something, he should darn will do it instead of slacking off and making Hakura wait 30 minutes and get involved in an accident. Completely irritated me for the first 2 episodes. After that, he got better; more organized, more reliable. Reliablity is everything. I can understand now (as I just watched the 5th episode) why he went to Mitsuki and kinda "forgot" about Hakura; I would understand 3 years passing by as being hard to move on in life as well.
Hakura: Waaaaay too forgiving. Takayuki hurts her sooo much and she's still like "It's ok, it's my fault". If she knew the truth, she'd probably go "it's ok, it's my fault, you two can be together" as well. -_- Other than that, she's one of the best characters along with her sister.
Akane: She seems to always be the one that's missing information and goes beserk because of it. Apparently she didn't know that her mother and father didn't want Takayuki anymore (this is the Mom and Dad's idiocy) but she also didn't take the hint that Mitsuki was hitting on Takayuki. She should also be more understanding on the issue of moving on in life; 3 years is a long time, and not moving on may very well mean not surviving in life. I agree, they could have done what she did and moved on while occasionally visiting Hakura, but again, the parents. Of course, it was Takayuki's insanity and regret that got him into the position of not being able to see Hakura again in the first place, so... it could be said that in the end it was all Takayuki's fault. >.>
Mitsuki: I kind of agree with Akane on her issue, while Akane doesn't understand moving on very much, Mitsuki seems to be very easy on forgetting her friend and moving onto Takayuki. If I were her I'd stop seeing Takayuki, but I'm not, and never planning to be :P. After all, she was part of the reason why Takayuki was late again, though Takayuki could have stopped stalling earlier and never had met Mitsuki. Mitsuki is evil. But she does look better with short hair. :o Most girls do. :o

~o~ yea, I was kinda bored, and I did the forbidden "commentary on anime" thinking again.
