I hope things start looking up for you.

Ahh, server was down this morning so the whole department decided to celebrate K's birthday in advance. We then spent the rest of the morning grilling him about the judges he has dated and bitching about Miss Universe last nite.

Went out for lunch with B and C and server's back up hmmm ... very swamped so I might or might not be online much (depending how lazy I feel). Anyhow, I'm starting on the Saiyuki meets Grimm Brothers doujins.

So tah ... I really should not be blogging after this but knowing me *shrugs* but in the event I'm good for once, just some quick blogging before I disappear into the sunset for the weekend.

Very cool layout and YES, demon Hakkai is hot. Well, send me your mailing addy and I'll go check out stock tonite ^___^

Oh rats ... this is probably not a good time to tell you that Hakkai has to cross dress in one of my doujins ^ ^;;

Happy hols.

*huggles* and *huggles*. Are you safely home?

Reins ... good luck with reining in the bishies *waves*

Thursday

This is the 2nd time I'm getting this.

Bahh ...

Need to work, need to get nice threads too ... great Singapore Sale is on and I've got a little bit to burn. Drat the fact manga shops don't participate in this annual shopping event coz that's what I really would like.

No Gaiden? Serious? This is not good but I heard rumours Gaiden as a tan' didn't sell good coz Saiyuki fans thought it was a doujin rather than the prequel to Saiyuki. But everyone whom I've spoken to so far prefers Gaiden ... myself included.

Heh heh ... another Saiyuki fan.

The insanity is spreading.

Met C & C for lunch. 2 of my good friends from law school. They're getting married soon and want me to play the wedding march for them. Uh, better practice hard from now. Me am very happy for them, they're one of the coolest couples I know.

Really funny, grandma (the one I live with) saw the wedding invites and asked me if I was considering seriously to find "someone" myself. Mhahwhahaha ... I've yet to find someone that garang and crazy yet (garang=daring). But seriously *wipes away tears of insane laughter* it's getting a little funny when everyone around you is getting married and planning for babies while I'm still plotting how to get my hands on a Clow plushie/figurine etc. etc.

Clow - Peter-pan syndrome, that's my diagnosis. Grow up!
Kit - :P so said someone who never married but kept a talking lion and a sulky moon angel ... and who is only interested in playing stupid tricks on everyone.

Wednesday

Yes he is. If you recall, Sanzo once recalled being taught that there are only 3 of them. One had been eaten by the desert demon, one was Sanzo's mentor (position taken over by old shifty eyes now) and the third is him. But guess as much, who else could Kami inherit a toy fetish from?

My eyeballs nearly fell out of their sockets at that one. I wonder how is Kou tho. Know he's been reduced to a mindless slave but want to see how "mindless" mindless is. I remember they did say Yaone was intensely distressed. Girl is sweet but bit too much of a damsel in distress. Sincerely thought they were going to make her angst about being in love with Kou and Hakkai both at the same time but that never happened. Would have been funny.

Kou: Hands of my doctor or or I'll kill you *flushes*
Hakkai: Sumimasen, ano ...
Yaone: Kougaiji sama? Hakkai-san?
Kit : LOL

Kaori-chan, is "Poor Prince" good? I know the manga is great but I am generally not too impressed with Taiwanese dramas adapting manga. But that being said, I'm kinda looking forward to this drama adaptation of a manga about this ugly fat girl who goes thru major surgery to woo the bish of her dreams, staring Phyllis Quek. That one might be funny. Always liked Phyllis' shows but maybe I'm biased ... I prefer the lighting in Jap dramas, the Taiwanese dramas then to used rather washed out lighting and too much melodrama makes it worse.

And get this, the attachee asked me if I was an attachee or a pupil this morning at court ... silly boy thought I was 5 years younger than I really am *LOL* Okay, this isn't as bad as the time someone asked me whether I was in JC or secondary four (that would make me a decade younger than I am ^ ^;;). Gosh, I'm old ... way older than most people *sobs*

Got pay *rubs hand in glee*

*blows kiss* And I love you too. Slam Dunk is quite entertaining but with all due respect, the anime is awful. The manga's artwork was very rough initially but improved by leaps and bounds to the style we now see in the Vagabound. I think he assisted in City Hunter ... was going thru the end credits in the manga last nite when I suddenly yelled "hey, he's in City Hunter" only to earn the irked look of my sis who was trying to sleep *sweatdrops* Ahhh ... Mitsui ...

Clow: *appears behind lazing kitten and drags kitten back to work*
Kit: O_o;; help ... they're taking football bets in the office this week. I want to play too but know nuts about football. If only they were as keen on baskettball ... hey, that hurts ouch!!! Cut it out ... OWW!!! oww!!! Oww!! Aiiiyeee ... X__X;; *dies*

PS: This blog is late coz blogger was down when I first tried to post it (14:15). So I probably have been murdered by Clow the time anyone got to see this.

-----------------------------

Am very very tired. It's been a fun day but I'm totally popped out ... so going to see gran before I drag my carcass home. So much things to do it's nuts but ah well, translations ...

Darn. Manga shop changed its manga importing day again. Sigh, thank goodness uncle and oniichan are around ^___^

I'm so tired I feel like sleeping in my chair and telling dad I won't be home tonite. Gosh, I'm even falling asleep typing ... must go, must go ... but very very tired ... this tends to happen after hearings and it didn't help today that suddenly everything had to move.

Must do timesheets ... ugh ...

Funny thing tho' ... one senior was so stressed today he was plucking his eyebrows until I teased him that if he continued that way, he'll need an eyebrow pencil come next month :P

Blogger is not working, daijoubu blogger-san?

Yeah we both got our Saiyuki crack.

Am watching Meteor Garden now. Strangely entertaining but I don't dig F4. They look good but I'm past that age ... until I look at Saiyuki again.

Now, making Saiyuki into a drama, that's a thought.

Must do Rapuenzel *points to first post of the day below*

Got WK doujin. I dig Youji. If he met Gojyo, they could start a playboy's club. And no, no barbie beds. Never played with barbie much as a kid. Mum decided that there was no reason to buy me and sis more than one if all we saw barbies as mere convenient kidnap victims who would end up falling off a cliff or being dissected. Heheh, I guess she kinda realised that my brain was defective at my tender age of 9 when she saw the barbie with its head in its arms (which were switched) and its legs in the mouth of my stuffed crocodile. I think most girls were using their barbies for tea parties and nicies like that.

Nope, grew up with plushies and my sis' and my version of fright nite plushie style.

Ganbette you!

Hearing tomorrow. Been damn hard work these few days but learnt a lot so that's good. This partner I've been assigned to work under is weird but cool. He swears openly and jovially and is excited about his work. Nice ...

I rather be a practitioner like the guys here. One more month till probation is confirmed. I hope they want me here.

Byes, going to get some dinner or some milk. If Clow was here to take care of my needs I'll be one very happy kitten ^___^ ... we can dream can't we?

Waiii ... that's not me!!! *wails* And no one in life has 36-Gies, not even if they stuffed ... UGH!!! Baahh, I'm Chinese and it's a 99.9% impossibility any Chinese can reach those proportions ^ ^;;

You're a dish
Written by the hands of Clamp
Don't get me wrong cause
This might sound to you a bit odd
But you own the place
Where all my thoughts go hiding
And right under your clothes
Is where I find them.

Underneath your clothes
There's an endless story
You're the bish I chose
So that's my territory
All the things that I deserve
For being such a fangurl honey.

Because of you
I forgot the laun-dry
Because of you
I'm running out of oth' things to buy
When I'm out shopping
When I'm out for luncheons
My wallet and the manga shop belong.

Underneath your clothes
There's an endless story
You're the bish I chose
So that's my territory
All the things that I deserve
For being such a fangurl honey (repeat).

I love you more than all that's on the planet
2D 3D, blonde or blue skinned
You know it's true
Oh baby my mum doesn't think it's funny
No one does believe it
As I plaster my room with your visage
My mobile is hanging with chibi you-s
Like a love crazed fangurl diddy
I'm tied up to this feeling.

Underneath your clothes
There's an endless story
You're the bish I chose
So that's my territory
All the things that I deserve
For being such a fangurl honey.

That's the scene before the 4 of them are expelled from the parade or something.

Hmm, since I've pelted Tenpou with bunnies, what does Kenren get to be plunged into? *thinks*

Heh heh ... they seem to like the new chocolates here save that AA threatened to kill me if I had put any drugs in it. Hehe he ... he's a really funny guy and a great senior. Spent half an hour yakking with him whereby he was telling me all the funny hobbies he and his wife were getting into these days, watercoloring, golf etc. etc.

Bah, work kid work ... *hits self on head*

But seriously, this new chocolate base is very good. The chocolates are not melting like they used to *grins* ... new line of work??? *niko* ... but I'm sure Clow-sama could come up with something better.

Monday

All the best for your law papers. Let me know if you need anything?

My aunt must have guessed what I was up to. As I was leaving, she said she'll drive me home so here is the errant neko, back at home with 2 cans of aloevera with lime juice. Mum's not giving me hell for running out just now. Dad must be responsible for that.

Think I'll just go to bed. My right knee hurts like hell.

*Looks at hits for day*

O_o;; I’ve never crossed the 50 mark before …

Mura chan, HK dubbing is hilarious isn’t it? The url has been sent to you ^__^ don’t laugh at me tho’. Kurot, I love your drawings. Thanks for the compliments but your Chii beats my Clow fanarts anyday. Erjika I'll do the translations over the course of this week and thanks for the compliments ... Clow to me is DAR man. Kim, I’ll keep your pointers in mind … but the Clow/Sirus on my links page has lots of piercings *wink* and I think I have to agree Fuuma does look like Clow’s evil younger brother. Met’, you sound like you had a great time … looking forward to more stories.

To everyone else, sorry I haven’t been reading much blogs today, thanks to someone hogging computer at house … so I’ll social blog tomorrow when I get back to the office.

---------------------

RANTS … ignore pls I just need to bitch:

Am pissed. Hiding in my cousin’s house now and sulking. Fortunately, my aunt isn’t asking too many questions as to why I suddenly turned up on her doorstep. Next to my folks at home, my aunt and uncle has always been my dearest and nearest.

Cousins are too busy watching Ocean’s 11 to worry too much. For once, I’m happy to be ignored.

Started off as a relatively good day. Colleague called to say I didn’t have to go back to work. Woke up late and went to Holland V for breakfast cum lunch with sis, her bf, mum and dad. Sat in the shade and ate at Sushi Tei. Cost me a bit but didn’t mind. It’s been ages since I used to hang around HV, especially with Bel. WOMAN, COME BACK!!! Unfortunately, the day went down from there.

Went home, made coffee and dessert and chocolates … skipped off for basketball (had prayer for no rain despite sky being darn dark answered). Significantly irritated by kids who arrived 15 minutes later and insisted on playing on the same side of the court as me (a basketball has 2 sides of a court, I don’t understand why they didn’t play on the unoccupied side but chose to play at the same one I was playing at but really lost it when I actually went to the unoccupied one, only to have them follow me … *twitch, twitch …*)

Went home and discovered mum threw away some of my melted chocolate I decided to keep aside and go for basketball first seeing sky was getting really dark, sis refused to wash cups leaving mess for me to find and wash and was just behaving like a spoilt princess … miffed already especially since stupid coffee people pissed me off. Say is it me or is it so difficult to understand that when I want 100 grams WHOLE beans, you don’t ask me how I want them grounded? Anyhow, sis was hogging piano and her bf hogging the computer which keeps hanging everytime I try to visit blogs. Felt very pissed. I am not the maid and at times, I do feel Steve is hanging around house too much which is fine except my mum gets majorly overconcerned when he is around, i.e. like fussing over the fact I swear and leave my things all over my living areas.

Decided to finish work and maybe bring chocolates to aunt … then my mum had to nag about my clothes being all over the place. That really pissed me off. Quarter of my wardrobe is stuffed with her unwanted clothes and I didn’t want to stuff my clothes in since it would only crumple them so left them hanging on chair in living room but she decided that it was “embarassing” with Steve (sis’ bf) being around and all. NAG NAG NAG … then she yelled. And that’s when I lost it. I don’t mind treating everyone usually but I was smarting from last month’s overspending (got my credit card bill day before yesterday) and slightly pissed with sis’ royal attitude today. Grabbed clothes, stuffed into wardrobe to h*ll with crumpleness and ran out of house with travelcard, discman, aunt’s chocolates and home clothes. So here I am at aunt’s house without a single penny. Feel like taking a long long walk except aunt’s neighbourhood is very very quiet … not enuff money in travelcard to go to Boon lay and back else I’ll drop in on oniichan. Sigh … Bel’s gone else I could pop by … fine I’m being childish but if I hadn’t run out of the house, I would have yelled back at my mum. I don't hate her ... it's just that I couldn't stand one more second of her nagging. Just hope I didn’t worry my gran and aunt too much, they were rather shocked I just shot out of house. Aunt was very nice. She got me a big cushion and uncle made me a lime juice drink with aloe vera the minute I arrived … no questions. This is the same aunt and uncle who used to bring me over for weekends as a toddler.

Speaking of oniichan, he’s so sweet. Lent me a DVD of Jen rou or Wolf Man (direct translation) which is a great anime about a man’s conflicts when forced to choose between his beliefs and a woman whom he fell in love with despite the fact she was hired to frame him. In the words of his superior “shoot her … while you are still a wolf. You want to return to society? How can you, you are a wolf … a wolf draped in human skin.” Great anime. Oniichan has absolutely fab tastes in manga and anime. He’s better altho' still slightly flu-ie so that's good!!!

Updated layout a bit with Shakira’s “underneath your clothes” lyrics. I know my adaptation is kinda sick but heh heh …

Maybe I’ll go sit at the drain behind aunt’s house or maybe not … I know my aunt and uncle are a little worried … want to call friends up but left mobile at home. Or I could sit on cousin’s roof and watch the stars, a bit wet tho due to the rain when I first arrived. Aunt’s checking on me every 30 minutes with offer of drinks … maybe I should go but I don’t want to go home until folks are asleep.

So confused. So tired. If tomorrow wasn’t a work day, I have a good mind to wander the whole nite to clear my mind. I nearly lost control and yelled twice today which is not good considering the fact I am rather Tatsumi like when it comes to emotions, save that I wear a smile to hide it most of the time.

Now if only I could get green eyes and a pet white dragon and a much better looking face.

*sigh* I'm being just a brat ain't I? And I'm bloody old as it is already. Looks like it's going to rain ... but I don't want to go home yet.

Sunday

Okay, the layout is alright on imac's netscape save that the webdings are totally off the mark.

Sigh, there must be some acceptable solution.

Am or was somewhat depressed by nice ride home from manga store with a open aired bus and a light drizzle has c heered me up. Getting chronically depressed again. It's about end May that I get insanely depressed (coinciding with exam time :P). I wonder if I can sue the education system for emotional damage - just joking.

Storytime ... according to my mum, it seems I had a close shave yesterday.

I usually take this bus XXX home and it passes thru this street called BM. Now, I was rushing home yesterday from work (starving coz I had forgotten to go for lunch) at about 7 o'clock. I missed my usual bus home and was so desperate to meet my folks for dinner, I took the next bus to Holland V despite the fact I would have to walk 2 bus stops to get to the place I was supposed to meet my folks as opposed to XXX which would stop in front of the said coffeeshop.

Well get this, according to the news, there was an explosion at BM at 7:15 yesterday. I just missed XXX but if I had gotten up that bus, I could have been on the road when it blew yesteday.

I think I missed the adventure of my life *sulks*

I can't claim to be an expert on Clover but I sure haven't seen book 5.

Got a new layout, did it on the bus ride home ^___^ now to find time to put it up *grins* ... actually, I should be working.

Dear Prof Snape, Neville is not so much lost for passwords as he has lost the URL for posting on the HBB. Neville being forgetful uses only 2 passwords for all his computer security. Whoops, shouldn't have told you that.

Anyway, Neville needs directions to the notice board. He remembers the word to unlock the portrait hole tho' (so he thinks). Monday's a public hol too (big religious festival for the Chinese) but I've got a date with 2 lawyers in the office plugging away to fight a case where one of my best friends is on the other side. Hate to have to beat him but would hate to lose to him even more ^___^;;

Erjika my manga is usually in Chinese which I do read without too much difficulty or so I think, so if you want, I'll translate from that. Been doing the same for Saiyuki really. Wild Adaptor I have but only in Jap and my Jap is very very basic still ... so can't translate that.

Mura-chan, WA is darker more bloody and less complete i.e. only vol 1 is out, whilst SS is set in a college and both volumes have been completed. It's a personal view but to me the latter's a better bet if you like light comedy and all. But SS has the 2 guys only pretending to be gay so it's not real yaoi (more like gag yaoi) while WA hints that they could be into it for real now that they're outta school ^ ^;; Vol 1 for WA has been released but haven't seen WA 2 yet so I can't say much about the story except SS is supposed to come first in the chronology of events. Art wise, WA is swankier while SS is clearly an earlier work.

Hmm, me am turning into translation and manga pimp? Heh heh ...

Seriously? You want Seitokai Shikkoubu?

Got translations too.

Kim I AM the manga pimp for various people already so it's no problem. Mail me with your mailing addy. I'll go check out the price and the stock. Kino in Singapore orders manga rather quickly even if they're out of the moment so at the most it's a month's wait. You want both books or just one? If you're into a bit of angst, WA is better. If you just want a good laugh go for SS. Can you have kids for MK? She's a girl you know.

Thanks for the link Kurot. I love your art.

The product of a boring lunch break.

Phhlll ... went drinking last nite. Not very wise on retrospect to gulp cocktails like they were shooters but am fine. Suffice to say, bunch was a little high leaving bar. Friend of mine asked me what kind of guy would I like. My answer? Tall, broad shouldered, Chinese or Jap, glasses, long hair, evil sense of humour and preferrably going by the name of Clow Read. Pity Deeps didn't catch the last bit but he pondered for a while and said the long haired bit was going to be difficult. *niko niko* Anyone seen a Clow Read lookalike?

It's a nice long weekend but am stuck here trying to salvage a lost case. SIGH. Anyone with good research on "anticipatory breach of contract" would be kissed. Masako, thanks for the help with Snape.

Back to work, 90 minutes before I get fried.

*giggles* ... but it looks from the Jap fanarts that Fuji is at the receiving end, rather than dishing it out. And he's who and whose lovechild? MAhahahhawhhaawhahahwa ... oh dear, my brain is smashed *proceeds to pick bits of fallen out brains off floor*

Very drool worthy ... and very sexy ... *grins*. He's taken because he was telling me about why he came from NZ to work in Singapore the other day. The reason was so his wife could be nearer her kin in Malaysia. Oh yes, a Clow look alike would be very very good. *Puts up ad - Good looking Clow lookalike wanted by desperate kitten* How do you write that in Jap? For the heck of it, I wrote a sign on my cubicle that purports to be a checklist for work but I've got some Jap words under all the English words that says "Seen any good looking bish?". I'm bored I know ...

Mura-chan this is fab!!! Absolutely fab. To everyone else: you have to read volumes 4 to get the intricacy of why it's so good. Oh gosh, these Jap artists really crack me up.

Am bored so am ranting despite my in-tray. Hee hee ... am plugging into my walkman and trying to work out an affidavit. Damn, spilt tea on myself ... excuse me ... *trots off to bathroom* Darn, at least the stain came out. I've resorted to buying men's shirts. My shoulders are too wide. I've got to lose some weight too :P

Ahhhh ... must go back to work before something else gets thrown my way.
Clow - *standing behind deliquent kitten and tapping foot* Ahem!
Kit - Heh heh ... hey, they're playing J rock on the radio ... cooolll!!!

Mura-chan, I kinda like brooding Angel a little but it gets irritating when he angsts too much ... but I really like rascally bad Angel. Can't say the same for Angel's spin-off tho. Faith is fun but I've been a Michelle Sarah G groupie since episode one of Buffy so ... Anyway ... 20 pages to go before I finish translating the whole of Volume 6 of Saiyuki.

Spike gets his wish for what??? *sweatdrops*

I like Angel but his problem is that he is wayyyy to angsty to learn how to have fun. Kinda like Kamui if he lives beyond his 21st birthday. But Angel kicks more ass. But bad Angel was yum! Too bad he wanted to kill Buffy. Can you imagine if bad Angel made Buffy a vampire instead? Can you imagine what it would be like? Dru and Spike would look like preschoolers beside bad Angel and bad Buffy *grins*

Thanks for the compliments ... drew it last nite on a whim, had to edit it quite a bit but am fairly happy with Clow's "cat got the cream" grin. Sweet? Hee hee ... *wink* ... oh, I think Karenokano could fit the description of the anime you are referring to.

I roughly know what you want, but haven't seen any Bronze or Zet' stuff ... me thinks Reins has. Speaking of which, woman, I still can't access your blog *sigh* Yeah taken, but I don't mind the eye candy ... I can still look right? However, the downside of being surrounded by too many young, good looking and smart lawyers is that I really feel like a DNA reject *shrugs*. Back to work now ^___^ but that accent is gorgeous ...

We even chatted about Saiyuki and they offered to open up the H no Go artbook for me to have a look but I thought the better of it, am broke until pay day which is coming soon ^__^ then again, me thinks the budget totally went out of whack this month ^ ^;;

Mug = studying one's guts out coz (i) you are robbing yourself of a life and/or (b) you usually require a big mug of coffee to accompany you while you study your guts out?

All the best for the common test to you, you, you and you. Also, good luck to you 2 - Lin and grandniece for the upcoming exams.

I think your experience was more horrifying Eve-san ... I did manage to get away with just holding a few eggs covered with maggots and washing the buggers out of the egg basket. Altho that being said, I was strangely extra alert that morning ... knowing my eating habits, I would have usually eaten the first egg without realising the problem ... it wasn't covered with maggots after all and on the frying pan it looked normal and all ... somewhat - just smelt a little strange. But having a worm wave to you from the middle of a guava you just bit into is not a pretty sight. Hope your study arrangements work out for you.

Saiyuki pencilboards? Okies ... hmmm, I need trenchcoat ... Clow san, couldn't you sew one or make one appear magically??? Onegai? *puppy eyes*

Clow - My services will cost ya' you bad kitten.
Kit - Meanie :P

Have an urge to draw ... My sister is back ... perversely we admit to missing quarelling and insulting each other for the last 3 weeks I was gone and the 2 weeks she was in NZ. She's bugging me about the next Harry Potter book and movie. Do I look like I am the powers that be behind Harry Potter?

Sigh ...

----------------------------------------------------

Posted one hour later ... pointless blogging, please don't mind me.

*crawls back to desk and collapses* Pant pant ... a colleague just popped his head into my cubicle with the weirdest request "uhm, could you run me to Court room 22 please?"

3 things that is making me smile -

1. I ran for 15 minutes with a very cute NZ chinese who has the most gorgeous accent to die for (I should know, his cubicle is separated from mine by one cubicle wall). And more importantly wears glasses and has wicked humour - pity he's taken. He was so lost this morning ... told him I'll ditch him if the metal detactor at the courts found a gun on him and he had a panicked look for a moment before grinning,

Ok, so sue me. This new place is crawling with cute (but taken) people so it's pure eye candy working here (not that they're just eye candy ... they're bloody brilliant too ... I feel like some DNA reject being around them).

2. I got some exercise.

Man, I have not run for a while thanks to this chronic flu. It's clearing up but on second thoughts, I don't think this morning's jog helped ... I feel blood in my spit again :P And man is it hot. I was wearing short sleeves and pants and already I feel the heat ... he was in a full woolen suit he told me he brought from NZ ... poor thing. Anyhow, the reason why he had to ask me to run him there was coz the big boss wanted some files urgently and he had to bring it down. Only thing was, being a foreign lawyer, he didn't know where the Courts were, in particular Court 22. We were also 15 minutes late and man, did we run ... before succumbing to the fact it was bloody hot (and I had the flu). He was so panicky that everytime I looked around (coz I have the habit of looking around even when in a rush and running) as he thought that the building I was looking at was the court ... I got bumped into a bit as he kinda turned into my path, thinking I was going to turn into the building (I'm going to charge AC a few hundred dollars for that - injuring the tour guide and making her run on a flu *evil grin*). Anyway, I'm definitely walking on people's right from now on ^___^

Well, I'm back and in one piece. My spit's bloody and I'm feeling like roadkill but the calpis drink on the desk is a lifesaver. Thank goodness, I always keep running shoes in the office. I'm kinda relieved on hindsight I didn't wear that long sleeved blouse I took out of the cupboard last nite ... I would have melted. For some reason I nearly wore the blouse I wore to Shangri-la with Reins and Masako and Lin but switched it last minute for a sensible short sleeved blouse ... much more comfortable for running like a maniac in the hot Singapore sun (not that I wish to repeat this thank you).

I need more Calpis water ... so I might pop by Daimaru tonite after the hospital if there's time. My boss is back in HK ... sigh ... so life's a little boring again altho I've been told to just skive and relax.

Better pretend to look busy.

3. Eriol the sheep - Have I gushed about this little sheep yet? My sis brought me hope a bungee jumping sheep plushie but when she heard about Eriol, she wanted to see him too. No, he's mine *hugs sheep possessively* Hee hee ...

You know the expression a "smelly bad egg". Well, today I finally learnt what it smells like, 20 smelly bad eggs to be exact with maggots as a complimentary gift.

Just woke up and am rushing to basketball (flu or no flu). Took an egg out of the egg bas ket and cracked into pan. Thought to myself, egg smells weird and yolk looks funny (like the salted egg kind).

First thought, salted egg? Checked basket. Picked up another with white seeds all over it. Second thought - sesame covered salted eggs? Co ntinued taking eggs out and throwing away before Mister Brain finally connected - maggots. Spent one hour with dad washing out egg basket and cupboard. Thankfully mum had placed a wad of cardboard under the egg basket ... coz the maggots infected that too, but didn't get to the wood itself. Disgusting way to start a day really ...

Friday

And coz I have a few seconds before my body shuts down ... spent the whole evening sitting outside my flat at the staircase with a big bowl/cup of tea, a few good books and manga and an equally chilled out dad. This time, we moved out a chair for our books and cups, and 2 lazy chairs to flop ourselves on. If only I had brought Eriol home *sigh* I so love that little sheep. We would have taken the hi-fi set out too had my mum not put her foot down. "You 2 look like homeless bums who have set up camp outside my flat!!!" ^___^

My sis returns tomorrow - darn, just when I was getting used to having the room all to myself.

Watching Harry Potter on DVD with mum. First time for her. 5th for me. Still love it. The DVD comes with a special featured disc ^___^

Someone sat on my X 15!!! The front cover is totally ruined >_< ;; but at least Yuuto's visage is safe. Normally I'll just buy a new book but I've been doing that of late too often ... anyway (at the risk of censure from the countless X fans out there) I don't love X as much as I did when books 1 to 3 came out. Trust me, after book 4, as long as the art is good, I don't care anymore. I do hope Clamp's next work bucks up tho'. Karenokano is going to have Saiyuki pencil boards tomorrow ... yipeee!!!

Rather interesting referrer: search for pupillage cover letter template.

Hey look, buddy don't be such a lazy bum. If you're looking for pupillage, write your own letters. There's no such thing as a template for a pupillage application.

And if you're in the same line as me ... here's a piece of advice, don't copy letters. Firms are smart enough to smell it out. Nothing stinks more than an application that shows how little effort the applicant had put into its preparation.

Nope, nothing wrong with Clow’s performance. He’s the world’s greatest magician. No magical performance is going to be too much of a hassle for him. *puts on most innocent, wide eyed doey etc. etc. you get the picture … look* Why should he have any problems? *hugs Eriol the sheep happily*

I agree with you that it looks like the bishies here need some talking to. No dangerous weapons boys, the budget may be comfortable but plastic surgeons don’t come cheap!!!

You love me … that’s sooo sweet but no I don’t need a kidney … I need my very own Hakkai and Gojyo in real life to hang around. I keep getting Sanzo or Hakkai or Gojyo on the various Saiyuki tests I have taken … the only person I haven’t gotten so far is Goku. I like the little guy but I so adore Hakkai and Gojyo. Hmmm, I’m getting evil ideas already about about … no, don’t do this to me brain … it’s it’s … no … *runs off to soak her head in the sink*

*returns dripping* Sorry for that, ahem … guess what? Ruby, I’ve bought Eden. They had books 1 to 5 at the Jap 2nd hand bookstore at a very attractive price *grins* made the cute Jap assistant reserve it for me and picked it up after lunch. The story looks good as you have recommended. Met you got the HNG artbook and it’s good? Hmmm … probably will check out book at Daimaru’s Kino … *checks wallet* or maybe not.

Did my sums today. If I plan to visit Bel in Sept, I better start tightening my budget or finding a way to get my f-d in the bank back without losing too much interest. It’s tempting to live on credit (I’ve suddenly gained 4 new credit cards without doing anything *sweatdrops*) but I don’t plan to get into debt. Reminding myself that being struck off the bar is a possible consequence is more than a sufficient deterrent.

Ahhh, I’ve so gloated about this for the last few weeks but I really really like my new job. The people I worked with here so far are really cool and funny. ^__^ Went back to old firm today representing new firm … was like visiting your grandparent’s home … helped myself to the room, the water and zapped stuffed as I pleased … the lawyer on the other side just gave me his password and told me to help myself which is really trusting of him coz in this industry you don’t let people touch your documents and definitely not out of your presence. Don’t worry, I didn’t abuse his trust … but the aunties on the meeting floor and some of the clerks hadn’t realized I had quit ^__^;;

I do miss my friends but I’m making lots of new ones here too *grins*

Reins, your blog is still not loading … are you blogging anytime soon at the ODFM or where?

Rant - I'm not the most patriotic of people. I've always been happy to hang around this little island I call home but I've never felt so pissed off as I did today. Actually this happened a few weeks back but I've forgotten about it until I read the papers this morning.

For those not in the know, someone ... I shall not mentioned names made a public speech to this effect "there are more ways than one to skin Singapore."

What the f***? What have the inhabitants of this little island done to you to deserve such a remark? I mean, you've called us the "irritating red dot" and the "pimple that refuses to go away" and we've never been as rude as to respond to such remarks but the latest is that short of being pompous really - I had more apt remarks but in consideration of the sensitivity it could create, I will do my best to be civil. Look, I know Singapore is not the most popular of countries, our people are kiasu i.e. afraid to lose out, and thus acting in rather less than pleasing manners at times and we are not the most modest of people - happily announcing how happy we are with ourselves at times is irritating I concede but this remark is really uncalled for. DO you want to kill us really just because we're in existence? EXCUSE us for existing. I won't like it but I understand if you say we're irritating like a zit that refuses to die or if you call us a bunch of money minded low class zombies or anything that just stops at criticism ... BUT to hate us so as to begrudge us of the existence is something I cannot understand.

Look I'm not trying to pick a fight with those of you who might support such statements against my home but this island, no matter how irritating and small, not matter how hot and no matter how much garlic it likes to put in its food - it is my home.

On a lighter note, I got an SMS from Bel all the way in Sydney. Hee hee ... I woke up this morning only to spit out blood ... :P The senior lawyer on this file I'm working on is kinda worried. Asked me to take the day off but I'll just finish early and go home. Said he didn't want to be accused of working someone to death ... I'm not too freaked coz it's not the first time I spit blood. I probably having been coughing and wheezing so much these few days, I probably broke a blood vessel or 2. Just pretty disgusting for people around me to have blood coming out of my nose and mouth when I wheeze. In fact, I can't taste or smell anything but blood ... that almost makes me like a real vampire no?

Okay Mura-chan, will start on book 6 soon.

We interrupt your regular sane lives to bring you an unimportant news bulletin:

Kit - I've decided to name my newly acquired sheep cushion ... Eriol!!! Why? Uhm, coz the first episode of CCS that I ever watched was that episode where Eriol tricked Sakura into going down a big hole and rained "sheep plushies" on her. Strange way to get a girl to utilise her "erase" card but hey, it worked. And my sheep is so soft and huggly ...

We now return you to your happy sane little lives.

I just got a cushion that looks like a sheep plushie!!! The cushion has a sheep's head on one end and a sheep boobby little tail on the other. There are 2 clasps on the side of the cushion and when you put the 2 on them on each other you get an adorable sheep plushie standing on 4 little legs ... HEEEE HEE ... and it's sooo soft and silvery!!!

Perhaps they should be changed and perhaps not. Unfortunately, I belong to the fuddy duddy school which believes laws should be changed gradually and not radically.

Anyway, this topic has always been a hotbed for discussion. And I still owe you that article on sexual crimes don't I. Finally made my scanner work on my sis' imac but the imac is screeching away in protest. Either I buy a new comp (which I would like to) or I buy more ram for her imac (which is cheaper). Hmm, decisions, decisions ...

Tuesday

Yes your honor, husbands can't be found guilty of raping their wives. The trick doesn't lie in the manner of penetration. The trick lies in the fact that consent or actually the lack of, is not in issue. If the lack of consent is not in issue, penetration of a woman by her husband can never amount to rape.

You think inserting a few pages is bad? Well beat this ... I use to spend about 2 weeks for every new year of law school updating my statutes by cutting out the inserts and flagging them over the old ones. Some of them are soooo amended, my statute is made more of the flags than the original statute itself. Then about into half the year, we would have to update everything to make sure we were not behind the amendments and gazettes published.

Thank goodness for online statute publications *phew* ... and since you mentioned it, I can also hardly wait for Dec *niko niko* My sources say Sei-chan wants to meet Kamui, Fuuma, Hokuto and Subby-chan soon.

Thanks for the concerns grandniece. Good grief ... low bp and flu prone-ness would seem to run in the "family" except that your granduncle doesn't seem to have any of the problems ... you do know he's being a jerk recently :P Got the same on the vamp test as you. The last time I took one, I turned out Lestat. I like that fellow ^__^

The gran at my house is alright ... she grumbles about her bones but she's cool. According to her, picking up after me and my sis is enuff exercise. The one's that sick is the other gran. I feel quite guilty as I haven't spent enuff time with them both since working. Better rectify that ... although I hope I'm not too late for one of them.

I've lost too many relatives I would have loved to spend more time with. Fortunately, at my new place work is not all consuming, or at least not yet *keeps fingers crossed*

And you love me? *beams*

Hey it's almost 6 ... think I'll go see gran.

Thanks Wingy ... but it's so irritating to get giddy for no good reason ain't it? Ahh well, hopefully this means we won't get high BP when we're older?

Congrats on graduation ...

Well Leareth ... for better or worse, laws are rules society must live with. I don't have problems with most of the laws except the one stating that a man cannot be found guilty of raping his wife. However, that law, however archiac its base is not totally without merit (basis being a wife is her husband's chattel). The possibility of abuse arising from its repeal appears to outweigh any advantage gained. In any case, if excessive force is used (which will be in the case where the wife resists), the husband can nonetheless be charged for hurt.

If homosexuality is going to be legalised? Is your Parliament going to enact a statutory age for consent too? As for textbooks, among all textbooks, I usually find criminal law ones hopelessly outdated. The most recent local text I have for my country was written in 1984 and is still being used in school despite the fact it is soooo out of whack.

I probably am a fuddy duddy but where it comes to laws, I think our forefathers pretty got it much down to pat. The results are not unjust despite how strongly you may feel against the basis. But feel free to disagree.

But on the naughty side, no one has been arrested for sex crimes save for molest and rape really ... I cannot imagine any police in the common law jurisdiction arresting a couple for doing it funny.

NO stupid referrals for this post ok?

Hmm, that is one factor I bet the legislators didn't consider. But the reason why bestiality is criminal in most European and common law jurisdictions could be coz of the fact the laws of these jurisdictions were traditionally built upon biblical dos and donts. In this regard, a thingee with sheeps and whatnots were expressly forbidden.

Doing my best to avoid dubious referrals here :P been having very weird ones recently *thumps referrals*.

Mura-chan, thanks for the offer but for the time being, they can stay there (niko niko). My sis is away on holiday so there's an extra bed in the house ^___^ but I'll tell them that you're more than willing to have them over.

kit - *yells* The 2 of you better not do anything funny on my bedsheets you hear me!!! I've just washed them last week so BEHAVE!!!
Gojyo - But we're only playing.
Hakkai - *smiles* Hai hai.
kit - :P (I know some of you are going to read this in that context but I assure you my intentions are "pure")

Gran's better now ... thanks for the concerns but I do freak out everytime I get a missed call on my handphone and everytime I don't see my dad at home (radar usually prompts me to assume the worst).

Thank you for your concerns too. And NO, please don't read it in that light. But come to think of it, everything in life should be about performance no *winks*?

And this is a great HP gallery. Hats off to her ... she always tracks the good ones down. And with any luck, the fluffy one should make a reappearance in Hogswart.

Rant ahead (you were warned):

Going back to work, trying to finish by 6 today coz flu is killing me. Trying to drink as much water as possible to hasten recovery. Recommended by my aunt too for my BP problems. BP has fallen further since the last time I checked. It's now about 110/65. According to my doc, as long as it doesn't get too low, it's actually good news ... my chances of having high BP at old age is low (pardon the pun). I suppose that's good but I suspect the reason why my BP is low is due to the fact I have a higher hameoglobin count than most people, i.e. thick blood - which is NOT good. Hopefully, drinking more water will help thin it out. Aunt suffers from same problem and is still alive post retirement so I suppose I can live with it. I just hate hypothermia for the giddiness one gets when standing up too fast. The good news tho' is ... I'm the only person in my profession without high BP. Most of my colleagues suffer from high BP within their first year of practice. I guess I can't quit then, for the sake of my health. I mean look, I went on a holiday and my BP fell :P

Sunday

Hi hi

Bored on a Sunday nite. Lots of things to do but am goofing off as usual. Gotta go take medicine and sleep. Watched lots of Saiyuki @_@;; good stuff but now I'm hallucinating that a red hair bishie and a brown haired one are playing cards on my bed.

Attended a wedding yesterday. Have been attending too many recently ... feeling my age. My friends are marrying and having babies and here I am stubbornly refusing to grow up. Anyhow, congrats on the new job Murasaki. Okies, Wingy ... will do so ... *grins evilly at Snape*

Best friend leaving on Wed *sigh* ... had a good lunch together on Sat and were bitching about everything under the sun. Quiet funny. Another pair of good friends are getting married next month and I'm going to play the wedding march for them. Better practice.

Gran's in hospital. Had an infection. The nursing home did quite a bad job but at least they've sent her to a different hospital from their usual choice. Hate the latter hospital. At least at this hospital, they know what they're doing. I guess coz my aunt's a nurse I have rather stringent standards as to hospital care. I like this hospital, partially because my aunt used to work there and I used to drop by for the fun of it.

I would have loved to be a doctor but for the fact they do have that stupid practice of preferring guys to girls in their picks for med' school. At least with my faculty, they don't really bother about your sex, just your performance.

Was wondering ... what's a girl's role in life? To marry? Lots of gals seem to think that way. Was evilly bitching over the story of this mean partner who works her associates to death. Apparently, her own child didn't recognise her due to the lack of time she spent with him. Evilness aside, I think people can't have everything, or at least women can't seem to have it all. If you choose to have a kid, be responsible and bring him up properly. If you choose to have a career, you must be prepared to forego the pleasures of bringing up your kid ... well, until they find a way to let the guy get pregnant instead.

Then again, that conjures up strange images in my head ... particularly that of brown headed bishies wearing glasses and behaving like a certain "perverted kappa" *coughs*

Okay, time for medicine and bed, the flu is really killing me. Bad news being, no drawings this week. Ugh, I haven't even watched the DVDs oniichan lent me ...

@___@ ;;

Reading: Night robber
Comments: Good but the author could have kept some suspense as to the "Night Robber's" identity rather than disclose it after the first 5 pages. As much as you like a chick, you don't tell her you're a wanted art thief 3 minutes into meeting her.

I f you want C water, let me know? And I've found your Saiyuki poster (see email). They've got Hakkai and Gojyo figurines too ^ ^. Kino doesn't have anymore Saiyuki 9 but th ey're going to bring it in within the next 3 to 4 weeks. I've taken the liberty of reserving it first but if you don't want it, let me know and I'll cancel. Bad news tho', Kino appears to have raised its prices ... the book will cost you S$17.50 (or ab out US$10). Do you want it by air mail or surface mail (about 1/3 the cost of air mail which could be about S$10 or US$6).

Boy, this has gotta be long posts and ranting week.

Spent morning having breakfast with dad as client's office was very near home, s ay a 5 minute walk away? Now before you think I was skipping work on purpose, there was no way I could have left the office at 9 and arrived at client's before 9:30. Got rather irritated with client's assistant. She was this pissy person who questi o ned everything you told her and had this "who are you" kinda voice :P So in the end, I either spoke to her assistant who was a lot nicer or her boss. I feel bad saying this but I kinda understand why people generally don't like female managers. Femal es te nd to be less focused and generally have problems seeing the big picture. I mean who cares the fact it makes you look bad to ask the other side for documents when you have totally lost yours. Sure, it makes you look bad coz you didn't take care of y ours but like do you have a choice? Sheesshh ... And she had so much "attitude". I mean when you told her something or needed her to make a call, she would either make you feel like you were bothering her, or she will run off and consult someone else d oubl e :P In any case, she didn't know squat.

My second clients for the day were funnier. For some reason, they had their daughter with them. Everytime her parents tried to instruct me, she would wail. So in the end, they told her "darling, hush. we've g ot business to settle." which in itself is not that funny except that the baby did hush. Chances are she got tired and fell asleep but it's still funny :3

Busy morning but the kind of nice busy not the mind boggling busy.

Got a new file ... really interesting ... I'm pretty much enjoying my work again. That in itself is very cool. I was close to quitting the profession for good last year when I decided to give it one more shot by changing firms. On retrospect, I should have taken up B's offer earlier to join this place ... but as they say, better late than never. I miss my old friends back at the old place but that's about it. Heard strange things from them about the state of things they're going thru'.

Missed lunch with Sooks, worked right thru it ... must call to re-arrange. Then again I'm meeting Bel on Sat and YP on Sat nite. Haven't seen YP since we graduated ^ ^;; I'm truly a bad friend.

Itching to draw but guess that can wait for tonite. Feeling very sleepy tho'. Must be the lack of coffee. Want to bring coffee machine to work but hesistant to do so until probation is confirmed. Would feel stupid if things don't work out here and I've got to lug everything back.

Secretaries here very nice to me too so coping quite well. Must pack place tho' ... too messy compared to everyone else in general.

Must draw Hakkai and Gojyo fanarts ... must finish insane crossovers and mad-cap translations. Also thinking of doing Saiyuki translations ... and lots of doujin and original strips to finish ... UGHHH!!! And a smilely magician is demanding me to pay some long overdue attention to his site *sweatdrops* ... meep *runs off*

Well, looks like someone likes being plagued (looking forward to your reply - will confirm manga prices coz going to Kino tomorrow) ^__^ Grandniece I've sent off your parcel. Expect to receive it in about 1 to 3 weeks time? Sent it by surface not air coz too expensive ^ ^;; your granduncle refused to help fly the parcel to you :P

I just hope I get to keep it (still on probation) ^ ^;; Hmm, maybe there's a career to be made in mutilating manga strips and blackmailing people into paying me to stop *evil shrill laughter*

Quite a busy afternoon but appears to have survived it. Boss looks quite testy thru'out the whole day tho' ... *shrugs*, well B did warn me our boss was nice but tends to get fidgy at times. Wolfed down lunch and went about work, managed to finish about 6 so trooped down to see my grandmother. Was trying to tickle her when she opened her eyes for about 15 minutes or so. Don't know if she knew I was there or was it merely a reaction to the tickling.

Have been neglecting my other Grandma, must make it up to her this weekend. Bel's flight is delayed so will be able to meet her on Saturday afternoon ... probably will troop around insulting merchandise like we used to do as law students. Dropped by sushi tei and had lots of sashimi. Yum, love raw fish but there goes my budget. Drooled at the liquor at Cold Storage but decided not to, alcohol is too expensive in Singapore. That's the reason I stock up everytime I'm not in Singapore. Yikes, forgot to get the green tea with lemon for uncle and oniichan ... better remember to do so this Sunday coz I'm going up to get manga stash for the week anyway. Need more molah ... sigh ...

Spent the whole evening sitting at the staircase outside my flat with dad. Love the breeze ... have I mentioned how breezes generally make me "high"? Drank a huge mug of cam' tea. Quite fun coz there was a lovely breeze while we were planning for our next family trip to Scotland, approximately 2 years from now. Hmm, also planning to visit Bel later this year at Sydney and t o get some clothes. Am rather big for an Asian so I either buy guys' clothes :P or shop at non-Asian places. Must find nice Sei-chan trenchcoat and new computer coz I feel like getting 'em ... ugh, must control budget *twitches*.

Going to snooze soon b ut itching to either sketch or play with my photos from Europe. Heck, now that I take stock, I really took a lot of photographs - we're looking at 800 to 850 photos *sweatdrops* ... maybe I'll sleep afterall, the weekend's almost here ... yippeeee!!! Oo h, mustn't forget lunch date with Sooks tomorrow ^__^

Oniichan said he didn't have it, rather than it doesn't exist so I'm hopeful. Ahh, must borrow the old VH D from him. He also thinks D's swordplay is cool.

I love the way he draws his sword, the PS game one is way cool. I kept doing it until my mum asked me why I kept making D draw and sheath his sword. ODFM people, are you around?

... there is a monster ...
... imprisoned within my blood ...






Didn't really have a good start today. Sigh ... sometimes things happen and I feel like the world's dumbest person. Quite funny to play SMS with my sis tho'. She's in NZ, have a nice time Jing *waves* Got back from a meeting in the evening feeling a little better. Quite funny coz my clients were bitching about my old firm without realising one month ago, I was still with them. Couldn't say anything but didn't feel too comfy ... fortunately my colleague realised it and quickly hushed up the topic. Was clearing some work when one of my colleagues dropped by to trade me an apple for a banana ... quite amusing.

Took the metro up to Jurong Point imaging what would happen if I got my hands on a Clow card. For starters, I would make the train go faster. Was in Sanzo mode i.e. bored with everything in life. Bored, bored bored ... you get the picture. Bought a quart of milk and ran to the manga shop. It was a little quiet tonite ... probably coz everyone who popped their head in realised that this week's shipment was not in yet and quickly popped out too. Anyhow, picked up one manga just for the heck of it and happily plonked myself at the counter and started talking to oniichan and uncle. As my feet started hurting (damn high heels) I happily slopped myself onto one of the empty spots on the shelves and sat there yakking with oniichan who sat on the facing shelf. Oniichan was pretty amused by the X and Saiyuki crossover.

Quite fun, we talked about how we were too lazy to draw our strips. Offered to be his assistant so I could see his work. Some of oniichan's ideas are downright hilarious - in the good way. Spent most of the evening laughing and yakking. He likes battle against monsters stuff with lots of humour and SDs. I like comedy which ends in dark tragedy. Anyway, my latest story as developed with oniichan goes like this. There is a police officer who is chasing a very dangerous criminal. He corners the criminal after a brutal shootout. His colleague and the criminal are caught in a standoff. He must kill the criminal to save his colleague. However, as he is about to pull the trigger, the criminal's face mask falls off and before we see the face, the police officer is transported into a time zone where humans and demons live in a lawless society. He finds himself as a halfbreed, shunned and subject to some nasty prejudices. Furthermore, the people around him thinks he's nuts coz he claims to be from another world. He hears of a person who can help him and is introduced to this pub where a hunter named Raven Wolfstar holds the fort. Raven is a bounty hunter who appears to be human. He seeks refuge in the pub and a way to return to his world. After a multitude of adventures with Raven who turns out to be a half human half vampire, the most despised of half-breeds, he and Raven's gang take on Raven's father who is plotting to destroy the world. Raven's dad had gone totally loony after he was separated from Raven's mother who was in turn killed by a prejudiced mob. Throughout the story, no one realises who Raven's dad is ... not even Raven. The only clue given is that Raven actually looks like her dad. And just for laughs, everyone had prior to her dad calling her his precious daughter, thought Raven was a guy. Raven's dad will be a strange villian. Smilely and playful, and always there to advice Raven when she's stuck in another misadventure, you don't realise he is the destroyer of the world until it's too late. I'm still thinking about the resolution but I'm determined Raven will die to save the police officer ... but there's NO lovey dovey thingee going on (for the record, I hate lovey dovey love stories). He will be jolted back into the present by his colleague's urging to shoot the criminal ... the criminal turns out to look like Raven, almost ... and we end with one gunshot. Except the question is, who got shot. Onnichan asked if it was a hallucination or a recollection on the part of the police officer. I'm not telling ...

Onnichan then ran thru some of his stories with me. Really good ... I do wish he'll draw them. Also promised to lend me some of his DVDs when I proudly announced I bought a DVD player. Isn't oniichan the best? We were trading a list of our vices. We both buy too much games, too much manga and too much rubbish. He smokes too much and I drink too much and poor uncle was rather aghast as we were challenging each other to prove who was a worse maniac. Hee hee ... decided to scram when it was closing time. Had sat in the shop yakking for an hour and a half. Tried to convince uncle to hire me as a sales assistant at the shop but he refused *sigh*. Took a non air-conditioned bus home and had a whale of a time riding in the bus with the wind thru my hair. The scene of the lake near Jurong Point at night is truly breath-taking. Got cured of my Sanzo boredom by the whole thing ... a session of talking rubbish followed by a ride with lots of nite breeze is a good therapy measure.

I miss my school days when I used to hang with Pet, Aggy and all and talk about art, music and the pranks we could play on people. Used to cut class in high school to go play on the school piano with Aggy. Always hid my prefect badge when I did that *grins* Good grief, come to think of it, I've been a brat my whole life ... hahahaha ...

Really would like to be able to draw better *sigh*. Found my old art works, one of my first attempts at manga strip drawing ^__^ heh heh ...

Really missed my carefree days as a student. For example, tonite's weather is good. In fact, I feel like sitting outside my house on the void deck with a cold beer but should as earlier intended, sleep earlier tonite coz I have work tomorrow. Must try to start work early and end early too. I might as well grow up and behave like a normal adult but the truth is ... don't want to *kicks sofa*

Hahahaha ... oyasumi nasai.

Hi Kim *waves* ... glad the crossover is amusing you but it's all Murasaki's idea really.

That is a good suggestion. Bunny vs say ... darn, there's no mascot animal in X like MKR. Maybe the bunny could crossover into CCS. *imagines child play starring Nii's bunny and Sakura as the innocent unsuspecting kiddie receiving the bunny for Christmas*. Let me refresh myself on the more recent volumes of Saiyuki first tho' coz I've gotten quite rusty ... suggestions Murasaki?

... there is a monster ...
... imprisoned within my blood ...






Someone call a doctor please. I’m pretty insane … and I can confirm this truly coz I just popped into my boss’ room and announced that I had no files :P

Yep, my boss is back (finally) and I’m harassing for work. This and all points to the fact I have been trying to deny *sob* … then again, looking at my posts for today, why denied it … I’m BORED. The only thing is that I’ve been “assured” that this stage of boredom is unlikely to last. Actually, I like my line of work coz it’s pretty good for the mind. I generally don’t mind work as long as it’s proper solid work and no mishy scraps they throw at you. Okay, so I’ve bitched when I’m stressed but perversely, having too much free time on my hand bugs me more (especially when I can’t get my art programmes loaded on this compy). Does this mean I’m actually a masochist or a work snob? *Shudders*

Anyway, I’m pleased to announce that the quality of work at this place is good and the pace is sane. Looking forward to learning more stuff here. And to the poor little law student I’ve been scaring when at my old place, lookies, it was JUST my old place. Anyhow, how long more have you got before you graduate? Have you decided the area you want to practice?

I’m mumbling coz I’m typing this and trying to read a book at the same time. Why am I even doing this? I don’t know. To me blogger is a toy, a ranting tool … and you know I’ve lost it when I don’t even know what I’m saying exactly. But seriously, since I won’t blog overly-personal things on my blog, rubbishic entries are a most unfortunate consequence.

I remember someone once saying that the size of my archives must be scary. I suspect so, all the rants and ravings *sweatdrops*.

Maybe I’ll go plan some new layouts. I need to budget for a compy of my own so I can do some layout work and watch DVDs on it … donations anyone?

Trick of the day:

This is something EK played on KL who is not in the office today. The secretaries are divided between being amused and thinking we’re childish. The associates are amused – very … okay, so maybe we’re childish people.

Anyway, this is one example of the versatility of pink cloth ribbons. These little guys have more use than as handy tools to tie files together. Pink cloth ribbons can be used to seal off a person’s cubicle for an instant prank. Just make sure his secretary doesn’t have to clear his stuff up for him or she won’t be too pleased with you sealing off the cubicle. Prepare a mock notice from the fictitious Minster of cubicle safety with his face printed on the same (obtainable from the data base) declaring the cubicle unsafe and seeking the abovenamed person. Stick notice beside the crisscrossed ribbons over the entrance to the cubicle. Giggle madly and leave. Then again, EK was paying KL back for chopping a copy of her practicing certificate with “draft” and “not approved” last week. I kinda like the attitude here … pretty fun loving ^___^

On a side note, I’ve made friends with my boss’ secretary without realizing she was his secretary ^__^ (my own secretary is amused). And I’ve got to stop walking to my old place. Sometimes when I get off the bus or MRT – metro to you international people, and both the bus and metro stations are in between my old place and this present one – I automatically walk towards my old office :P

Sigh ... 40 minutes to 6 ... I WANT WORK OR SOME FUN AT LEAST!!! *flips Saiyuki poster calendar*

Speaking of Saiyuki ... my boss says he found out I like manga and anime. It's not the calendar coz he doesn't know where I sit yet *sweatdrops*. But he knew the word "anime" so I'm pretty impressed.

I wish YK was here, then we could start a manga club or something ... actually should have in law school. I remember being a cheapskate one year I had to do orientation and hand drew and painted all publicity posters. Of course, as I was learning manga then (from sailormoon to be precise), the whole of law school was bombared with manga pictures ^___^ and manga lovers started popping out here and there. Would have been fun *ponders* but I think there are one or two manga lovers around in the new cohort of pupils being called to the bar this year ... hee hee ...

As usual, this post makes no sense whatsoever, so sue me :P

Thank you Murasaki-san. The only remaining crossovers that I've done are at the Yami No Matsuei site, Reinselft actually stars in a few episodes of the "Ask Tatsumi" show and in the crossover doujin "Demented" (which I need to so finish). Haha, and now you've starred in "Journey to X-land". Actually come to think of it, the Meifu itself is a crossover of sorts. Sei-chan is the gardener in the Meifu, lots of sakura trees there.

Used to have more crossovers and other insane stuff on my trigun and umeda sites but those sites were zipped into nothingness when envy.nu collapsed. Need to restore them *sigh* from scratch ... Maybe I should get a site to archive all these nutty cross-overs; the beauty of scaring unsuspecting people *evil grin* (gosh, that's so Clow Read. Speaking of crossovers, Masako ... are you going to rewrite your cooking show? Send me the receipe again before I forget what we had roughly written the last time with Tom R.)

Now, if only I could get a scanner *kicks compy*. I'll check out the cost of shipping and of the books and revert to you.

Wingy, I couldn't access the HP fanart sites ... but the post on Sirus is amusing ^__^ (actually I think the dense one is Luppy).

I'm really booorreeeddd today.

So Wingy, are you going to be on LJ or blogger? Wanna write some more Snape + crossover fluffy monster stuff? Am bored and willing to mutilate series.

Murasaki, can I quote you for your version of part II of Journey to X-land? Might put it up on my saiyuki site. Used to write all these stupid crossovers and such but stopped for a while ... and I still owe Masako something ^__~

Am so bored today. I wonder if I have a mouth with a death wish but it would be nice if my boss decided to come back soon (no, I'm really insane now ... I need therapy).

Yeah, he will throw a hissy fit along these lines.

Kanoe: *sweeps her hair behind her* Yesss?
Fuuma: How come Sanzo gets a credit card and all I get is this stupid chair?

Kanoe: You didn't get the stupid chair. You took it. But look, all Sanzo gets is 3 stupid guys. You've got a real babe here *struts and sits on Fuuma's lap*

Murasaki I take it you're referring to the glass flask the demon threw at Hakkai before he dug his eye out? Well, Hakkai had, in addition to mass murdering the centipede tribe, also murdered the villagers who had given his sister to them and another tribe of demons serving the centipede tribe. The manga is not entirely clear on what this tribe of demons were but the anime says they are a tribe of crow demons. Anyhow, the demon seeking revenge was a demon from this lesser tribe and the glass flask contains his brother's eye. Hakkai was extremely brutal in his vengence. He killed the demon's brother and dug out his eyes.

Hakkai was injured in one eye when Goyjo had found him and to "placate" the demon seeking revenge, he dug out that eye again ... an eye for an eye theory I guess. The demon was stunned by Hakkai's act, but Hakkai justs smiles and asks him if it is insufficient. He offers the other eye and is about to dig it out when Goku stops him in time.

Sanzo takes Hakkai away and presumably puts the eye back for him. There are 2 views on the success of the treatment tho'. Some say the gouged out eye has limited vision and must be protected by the monicle. It however, is still relatively unstable and its condition may worsen. Some fans take the 2nd theory that the gouged out eye is merely put back for aesthetic reasons and it is effectively blind.

As for your second question, I'll go back and check my books. But while the conversation between Hakkai and Gojyo is charged, there is not actually hint of anything until Gojyo cuts his hair. The bar girls asked him why he had not been visiting lately and he tells them that's coz he has been with a lovely babe with green eyes. LOL ... In the anime, he goes on to call Goku a lively babe and Sanzo a fierce chick with purple eyes but I think the manga only refers to Hakkai - I think they couldn't bear to throw away the line in the anime but wanted to downplay the whole thing by making Goyjo refer to Sanzo and Goku as well so that it sounds like he's joking but it's obvious what the author originally had in mind *wink*.

But I don't know if they opened it together ... they don't need it you know. I could be wrong but doubt anyone is going to give birth 9 months down the road if they're not careful. Besides, they were married in their last life *mhwahahhaa ...*

Grief, I'm really loafing around :P but am having fun ^___^ Do you need a subscription to Saiyuki manga? Can get up to volume 9 here and ship it over if it turns out to be cheaper.

Subaru: *whimpers* Hokuto … sei … why???
Kou: *helps him up* Look, I know you must have been close to em’ … I know what it must feel like. My mother’s encased in stone and my heart breaks each time I see her.

Sub: You must have been close.
Kou: Yeah but that’s NOT the point … she got turned into stone right after she confiscated my credit cards. I can’t find where she hid them … I think they were in her pocket. I’ve got to free her at all costs … how am I supposed to get my boss suits without my cards? Look, I’m the prince of demons and I’m reduced to wearing the same clothes day in day out. Even my lackeys here get more changes of clothes than me *sulks*

Sub: I feel your pain. Say I need to go get clothes too. Someone *glares at Fuuma* stole mine.
Dou: Say Kou, why don’t we go shopping too. The clothes your stepmother hands out for henchman are sooo ugly. Yaone, come along too won’t you?
Yaone: What’s wrong with what I’m wearing?
Dou: You don’t want me to say it in public *grabs Kou, Yaone and Sub and makes for the nearest boutique* thinks to himself (that crazy girl with the cat ears is looking at me funny)

Yuzuriha: He looks like you Kusanagi … I wonder if he can see puppy too *hearts in eyes*
Kusanagi: Hmm, want ice-cream? *Whips out 2 cones*
Yuzuriha: Kusanagi-san …

VOICE (Murasaki’s cameo) – DO NOT COMPARE THAT UGLY EXCUSE OF A DOE WITH KOU’S DOU!!!

Sanzo: I SAID QUIET!!! *fires gun*

[Stray shot hits Yuzuriha who dies on the spot]

Kusanagi: Nooooo … don’t die, the trees feel my pain etc. etc.
Goku and Ririn: *running up* Look mister, if you don’t want the ice-cream anymore …
Kusanagi: Here you go kids *looks at Ririn* say … you are a cute little kid aren’t you?

Kou *rushes back*: Oh NO you don’t … *grabs Ririn and runs off*
Ririn: *waving* Bye mister … thanks for the ice-cream …

Goku: Sanzo, I’m still hungry!!!
Kusanagi: Here, take this … she won’t be eating anymore anyway *hands Goku Yuzu’s pocky*

Goku: I’M HUNGRY!!! I’m going to join Hakkai … *dashes over Beast, toppling it in the process*
Satsuki: O_o;; *walks out of the smouldering heap of Beast and stomps towards cafe*

[Minutes later, we hear something like Yuuto screaming for help and a large catfight … probably involving a certain Soapland miss and a certain cyber-genius]

Sorata *still having his ear pulled*: Miss … can we leave now?
Arashi: *glares*

Sorata: Miss?
Arashi: *glares and drags Sorata off*

Sanzo: *looks at foot* Hey what’s this? Why is there a dog here?
Yuzu: *wakes up – hey this is X where you have to shoot them properly or run your hand through their heart to make sure they’re dead* Mister, you can see him too? I LURVE YOU!!! *glomps Sanzo* You can see him, you can see him too … yipeee … etc. etc.

Sanzo: *insert muscle twitch in forehead*: URUSAI SHI NE!!! *fires 5 rounds in Yuzu who finally dies* This is stupid … I didn’t sign up for this *stalks off to the nearest beer store*

Kusanagi: Nooo … YUZU-CHAN …

Fuuma: This is soo boring … *notices Kamui still angsting away so he grabs and impales Kamui to nearest slab of concrete lying around*
Kamui: What did you do that for?
Fuuma: Habit … Nataku, take care of the remainder and let’s go.

Kusanagi: Oooohh, the pain, the pain … *wails over Yuzu’s body*

Nataku: *sucking on a lollypop Fuuma had given it suddenly looks up* Daddy??? *Notices Kusanagi ranting, romps off happily to kick a wailing Kusanagi and then Yuzu’s corpse into the ocean (we’re by a port or something)*
Fuuma: Good Nataku, come let’s go destroy something …
Nataku: *nods*

[So Fuuma was able to make his schedule for daily destruction and mayhem afterall and SEE, Nataku is useful for something other than entertaining us with ribbons.]

Kamui: Why … angst, angst, mumble mumble …
Sanzo: URUSAI SHI NE!!! *returns, fires 6 rounds in Kamui and stalks off again, finally, there is peace and quiet … for now*

Murasaki has got a very good part II here ^__^ but since I'm bored, here's my version of part II (III will be coming up shortly):

--------------------------

Kamui *wakes up*: Alright … what did I do now … I tell you, it’s not fair. Why does this always have to happen to me … Why *angst, angst* … First my mother gets fried to a crisp and then when I come back to Tokyo, my best friend kills my girlfriend. Subaru-kun likes Seichirou better than he likes me and … uh *sweatdrops* … forget the last sentence … AND now this guy who has prettier eyes than me tries to kill me … *angst, angst* … and …

Everyone: O_o;; hoe? I thought he was dead?

Voice: Gotcha for a moment didn’t we? We are the 4 great gods of this X universe. Kamui will not die for the time being … he will stay and angst and look pretty with feathers flying around him … mahhwhahaha …

Hakkai: But there’s no storyline …
Gods: But it sells … mahwhahahha … gotta go and get more feathers *mad squawking of chickens heard in the background*

Gojyo: What’s going on?
Hakkai: It would appear that we have fallen into an alternative universe where there is no storyline, the characters just angst and look pretty and lots of chickens are sacrificed for their feathers.
Gojyo: How do you know so much?
Hakkai: Nevermind that … question is how do we get out?
Goku: I don’t care. I’m hungry … is there anything to eat? Ehhh? Sanzo, how come Kou and gang are here too?

Gojyo: Never mind food … *saddles up to Kakyou who is lying by the side* … lookie who do we have here … hello miss, it’s dangerous to fall asleep on the road, can I get you to a hotel or something?

Rest of X crew and Hakkai: *sweatdrop*
Hokuto *apparates beside Kakyou*: Uhm … if you don’t mind, this is my BOYfriend?

Gojyo: O_o;; heh? Sorry sorry … I thought he was a girl … oh gosh, your sense of fashion sucks!!!
Hokuto: What??? *takes out mighty hammer – credits to Leareth, and slugs Gojyo on the head* How rude …

Subaru: Hokuto … *runs to meet her but trips on foot* Damn, I’m going to have to get used to having only one eye *sulks* Hokuto, don’t go …
Hokuto – Sorry Subaru, gotta go … fashion shoot in heaven, they’ve got my latest designs on display and … Sei-chan is the model for today *grins, waves and disappears*

[Voice of Sei-chan heard, “NO!!! I’m NOT wearing this!!! Nooooo …

Voice 2: “Shut up soul number 23477, you’re serving time for the murders of 500 persons … you’ve got another 99999 fashion shoots with Miss Hokuto before you go on to community service”

Voice of Sei-chan: nooooooo … help!!!]

Kakyou: (in his mind) Damn, I wish I was dead too … Hokuto can play dress up with me … *cuts off when he realizes the other dreamgazers and Fuuma are looking at him funny and goes back into dreamworld beach sulking*

Kou: Sanzo, is this some trick of yours?
Sanzo: No. Look Hakkai, how do we get out of here.
Hakkai: Hahaha *smiles* … *pause* I have no idea.
Goku: *tugging on Sanzo’s sleeve* Sanzo, I’m hungry!!!

Kamui: and and … hey no one’s paying any attention to me … I tell you life is not fair … *angst*

Hakkai: Is he always like that?
Aoki: ‘Fraid so … poor kid. Watching his mum get fried probably damaged him.

Voice: “It was all foreordained.”
Hakkai: What was that?
Aoki: Don’t worry about it … we get that and the feathers a lot. Have you ever tried to get chicken feathers off your suits? I’m thinking of wearing T-shirts and jeans soon like the rest. My wife is complaining about the washing she has to do thanks to the feathers and all.

Karen: What about my sexy lingerie? My lace and all keeps getting damaged by all these feathers … look *takes off coat to reveal sizzling red teddy* … so Aoki-san *places hand on his arm* shall we continue with our interview?

Aoki *blushes*: Uhm, that’s nice Karen but I think you better put your coat back on … *coughs* there’s a kid around you know … we can continue the interview later *coughs*
Karen: Kamui’s no longer a kid … I caught him going thru Sorata’s porn magazines last nite …

Sorata: *sweatdrops as Arashi pulls his ear* Miss, can we talk about that later? And can you keep your sword first?
Arashi: *glares*
Sorata: Heh heh …

Kamui: *goes red* [Fuuma is seen laughing non-stop]
Karen: Aoki-san … where are you going? I haven’t shown you the damage on my clothes yet, look at this … Aoki-san where are you going???

[Aoki is seen walking Hakkai to the nearest café for tea]

Karen: *stomps foot* He’s always like this … and I specially wore this today … all that talk about being my friend is hogwash!!!
Gojyo *sizzles up to a sizzling Karen – in more ways than one*: How insensitive … soo lady, you were saying the damage caused by …

Karen: Aoki-san *runs after Aoki and Hakkai*
Gojyo: Sigh, the chick is pretty but she’s possessive … ahh weellll *scouts room* … too young, has sword in hand and looks pissy … babe … *walks towards Satsuki but backs off when she scrowls and when accompanying beast flashes sigh “DIE”* … heh heh … maybe I’ll go have tea with Hakkai and that scholarly fellow after all … *runs off to cafe*

Yuuto: Ahh, I better go too, really must protest as to the damage the feathers are causing … oh Karen-san … *runs off in direction of cafe*
Satsuki *scrowls, enters Beast and proceeds to destroy all cables and buildings near cafe*

[Loud screaming heard, more feathers, kekkai raised]

[Suddenly, we see a large sand whirpool or the sort under Jeep, within seconds, the foursome are sucked into the sands below. Kougaji and gang who are following the foursome closely are surprised.]

Kougaiji: What evil magic is this?

[Suddenly he loses his footing and falls into the same sand pit, as does Ririn, Yaone and Doukugakuji.]

All: Ughh …

[Insert feathers, darkness and the sound of bustling city cars … beep beep and the sort. And a voice that says “It was all foreordained …”]

Voice (girl’s, irritatingly genki): Are you okay sir? Oooh, they look so different … and some of them have pointy ears … niko, niko.
Voice 2 (boy’s): They just fell through the kekkai … don’t tell me they’re … but I thought there was only 7 dragons of heaven and 7 for earth?

Voice 3 (boy’s): Can we get back to the fight so I can grant your wish? I’ve got a schedule to keep you know … killing and the sorts after destroying your kekkai and pinning Kamui-kun to the wall and giving him a broken rib or two.

But then again, maybe these guys have a wish for me to grant too huh? Oh look Subaru-san, this one has green eyes just like you … no make that ONE green eye heh heh … and Kamui, look at this one. Purple eyes just like yours but a lot TALLER.

Voice 4 (boy's, extremely angsty and the sorts): Oh shut up Fuuma.
Voice 3: Kamui-kun, you’re not jealous are you? I know what you’re thinking … I can grant it you know.

Voice 4: Oh shut up Fuuma … why must this happen to me … Fuuma, please come back … I, I … oh mother, why did you have to die in that fire? Why … why … *whiny*

Sanzo: SHUT UP!!! I TOLD YOU I DIDN’T WANT ANYMORE BICKERING *shoots twice* … Ahh, my head …*cradles head*

*opens eyes to realize, he is no longer in his world* What the …?

[Camera pans to Kamui who has been shot dead in the accidental fire and Fuuma who is sitting down in surprise while examining a smoking hole in his shoe.]

Everyone: *sweatdrops* O_o;;


End of PART ONE – TO BE CONTINUED … Murasaki, part II?

Tsukineko ... what have I done to you??? Hee hee ... SMSing you is fun, but make sure I don't distract you from your education, feel free to thrwap me on the head if I do. X huh? Kamui dear did you hear that? Okies Sei-kun, get out your black stuff (must get the shades).

Oh, Masako, please read email ... may have to send thingees to you by mail instead of by hand since colleague is stressed to death and may bite my head off if I approach his cubicle ^ ^;; unless I decide to make a trip to KL over the Vesak festival.

"Urusai! Shi ne!" is what Sanzo will say before shooting Kamui and I suspect most if not ALL of the X cast.

The only person who might live might be boring old newspaper editor cum family man coz he would be on the side having tea with Hakkai and talking about domestic affairs while Sanzo shoots everyone who irritates him. Then again, bet you 5 bucks Gojyo would be trying to chat up Karen.

Sent out your little pressie (5 letters, begins with F) ... hope it gets to you soon. Met have fun in Korea.

My sis is flying off to NZ tomorrow, the room will be ALL MINE until the 17th, mahwhahahaha!!! Sinking into depressed mode, must be too much curry rice of late.

Tsu, you're SOOO taking Clow's side *sulk* I think he likes you better than he likes me *wails*. No matter, I've got a great idea - we need to find his dirty dark secrets and blackmail him *evil grin*.

My mum is a joker. I was playing my newly acquired VHD game yesterday, I so love the fight sequences when D draws his sword. Below is an exerpt of a conversation with her.

Me: Wahhh, so cool ... maybe I should have taken fencing rather than photography in JC.
Mum: Whatever *goes back to her game boy, suddenly looks up* Hey, that guy (D) looks like a vampire.
Me: Mum, he's a half vampire ... cool character huh?
Mum: Hey, he's getting injured by the water.
Me: Yeah yeah, vampires are supposed to be hurt by water. But don't you just love the way he glides when he slices and dices demons?
Mum: Oh yeah and if you kept your hair longer, you might just look like him ... where's my coffee?
Me: Very funny mum, hilarious ... *saves game* ... good idea, I'll go make some coffee.
Mum: Not too much milk in mine okies? And a bit of that chocolate liq we brought back hor.

What kind I say, even my own mum calls me a vampire. And the highest hit I get for this page is "garlic intolerance" :P On a side note, the ODFM is in business again ^___^

Sunday

Oooh yeah Murasaki-san, it's 5 letters, begins with F and is constantly being used on your blog ^___~

Masako and Zhin ... guess what, I bought the VH D game *grins* it's wayyyy cool ^___^ I wish I can get my hands on a DVD player ... am so inspired by my new acquisition. Will get PS II *rubs hands in glee*

I'm very happy today, I actually got time to sleep in the afternoon. There's a malay wedding being held in the void deck of my apartments. I fell asleep as it was POURING this afternoon ... it was great weather as far as I was concerned but I can't help feeling a little bad for the couple who probably would have preferred for it not to rain on their big day. Ahhh, better pack my room ^ ^;;

Saturday

Went anime shopping with Aine and Meia. Aine got K Phase manga and Meia bought Time Strangers manga *giggles*

Please don't mind me. Got stuff for my crack customers so you guys (you know who you are), should hopefully get parcels in the mail soon. Grandniece, I'm trying to see if my colleague is going down. I've got all the Malaysian stuff in one bag for him to carry ^ ^;;

There were 2 really cute star ocean key chains, Dias and Ashton ... but they were NOT for sale *face falls* UGGHHH!!! Bought Saiyuki II in DVD. Plan to get a programme that allows me to watch DVDs on the laptop, or maybe I'll get a PS 2. I wanted to wait for the VCD but heck, it's also high time I got a DVD player really.

Broke, am soo broke ... :P

Got your mail Murasaki ... hee hee, I see we're pretty much agreed on that issue. Didn't see the plushie but saw something else that might interest you. Hint, it's 5 words and begins with "F". No Saiyuki crack on sale unfortunately ... the shop ran out of it. But no worries, I'll keep hounding them until I see something good!!!

Back to milling around and watching my life whizz by ... toodalooes!!!

Friday

Don't know where you can get fics like that but have a look at this. There used to be a doujin here depicting the family life of Hakkai, Goyjo and a few little Hakkais and Gojyos ... no prizes for guessing how the kids came about ^ ^;; pity it's sold off already.

I just want to know, who had to deliver the little ones. Most people would place their bets on Hakkai but I have my money on Gojyo ^ ^;;

imoto-san, I watched the new VH D I guess, the same one Zhin is raving about.

Hmmm, doujin huh? If you're going doujin hunting in Korea, let me know if you see anything Clow-related (as unlikely as it be - sigh)?

Must so improve Jap. Have signed up for part II of Jap classes, starts 9 June so better start revising part I before I forget everything ^ ^;; It was raining last nite and I was too lazy to get an umbrella ... walked 20 minutes in the rain from the metro station to the Jap school. Hope I didn't scare the staff too much, imagine: dripping wet person in black suit turning up to sign up for class at about 8 at nite *sweatdrops*

Since she broke your brain too, go see Murasaki's blog again ... more Saiyuki stuff ... Murasaki-san, I've got something to tickle your Saiyuki buds with, if only I can find me scanner. House still in insane mess (Masako can testify to that).

Oh, anyone who knows any Malaysian lawyers out there? I've got a question and would be grateful for some pointers. Masako, what flavour Virgin did you want? I'm sending you the pink one but any other flavours?

Tsu ... you're sooo PRACTICAL :P Hmf, so you have abandoned me to the insane magician? *sulks* Me his fav? His fav is himself ... *mutters about mean, possessive magicians* but I'll get back, never you worry *evil grin* ... starts working on something in the ODFM.

Reins, take care and btw, your page takes heck of a long time to load. 3 minutes in opening your page and it's not even 10% loaded. But do take care of yourself. Snape's mended so if my colleague does go up to KL next week, I'll put Snapee-poo with Masako's orders of drinks (and Lin's earrings too). Any other orders in the meanwhile?

Going to visit my gran tonite and if time permits, the manga shop. Meia, got your SMS ... see ya at Karekano 3:15 tomorrow. Hmm, I should grab more Saiyuki merchandise for one. It's revenge. Murasaki broke my brain, so I'm going to break hers *evil laughter*.

Subby-chan, Hokuto-chan ... so it's set? Except which era is it? TB or X? Sei-chan's got to know whether he should appear as a vet or a sakura tree feeding killer. I know, I know ... I've gotta find out the con date ^__^;; Kamui, you're bringing Fuuma down for the thingee right?

Byes ... got ta go now.

Okies Murasaki-san, send me the email when you can. You want Saiyuki translations? Uhm, no idea but if you can't read something, let me know ... I should be able to translate for you.

GTG, work calls.

Well Murasaki-san, if you trust me, give me an addy to mail the Saiyuki crack too ... pencil boards, postcards stuff. Hakkai plushie huh? Hmm ... Meia-san, did you see any Hakkai plushie at Karekano? Meia, I can meet you there after piano class, say 3:15 this Saturday ... that okay with you? Oh, as Tsu, Leareth and Masako are asking, when is the Miyuki con?

Grandniece Masako, I see Zhin's onto VH D ... must ask him if D's talking hand is as irritating in Jap as in that stupid English dub. Meia has suggested we pick up yours and Rein's crack this weekend. My colleague is going to go to KL next week (silly boy misinformed me and I thought it was this week) unless he can help it ... I hope he can't *evil grin* so I get a free delivery service. Okies, now that you've got a phone, I'll SMS you the details ok?

Feel like scribbling at the ODFM but nah ... just finished work :P Got to sleep, lots of work tomorrow ^___^^

Murasaki-san, your Saiyuki findings have so broke my brain!!! I'm so going to work tomorrow with a queer little smile ...

Saiyuki!!! *runs round apartment madly to grab Saiyuki stuff* You got the poster too?? Hakkai is poster boy for May and June ... Weeeee, btw, it's quite easy to get Saiyuki merchandise in Singapore here, could I tempt you??

I so love your new playground ^___^ me will go disturb it tomorrow.

Zhin me thinks the reason Masako didn't really like VH D was coz the version we watched at my place had strange dubbing and bad graphics ... stupid dubs. The first part of the show was cliched but all in all it's pretty good.

Went out for lunch with friends ... Bel's leaving soon *sniff* Oniichan and uncle liked my photos ... I really need to find my scanner start up disc so I can scan them *sulks*..
