What if...

Feeling very down these days. So little time left yet so many things undone. This was not the feeling that I've been anticipating, 2 weeks before leaving.

What if the VISA takes more than a week to process?

What if my financial supporting document is not recognised?

What if there is any hiccups?

I can't afford any of that right now. Gonna pay for the flight payment tomorrow, yet I'm not eligible to make the appointment for interview for VISA now. I-20 still hasn't arrive.

I'm not very well-to-do.

God, You have put me through so many situations thus far, why not bring me across this time as well?

"God, what should I do now?"

I really need all your support. I hasn't prepare myself to differ.

Lying on the bed, I’m feeling a little nostalgia. Tonight will be the last night that I will spend at my hostel unit, Casa Subang. This place had given me a lot of memories in this short 1 and a half years. Initial from a room of emptiness-nothing, to now a houseful of laughters. Coming to think about the friendly housemates that I have all these while, I will really miss them in the near future.

Those were the time we chatted over teh tarik at the Mydin mamak. Those were the time we celebrate our friends’ and neighbor’s birthdays. Those were the time we quarrel and those were the time we pat on each other.

May God bless all of you! All the best in your future undertakings!

Weekend post

Yesterday I conducted the Arts, Crafts & Hobbies presentation for the Boys who are undertaking it for March semester. This time round not many turned up, even though I have around 20 on the sign-up list, only 8 turned up.

However, not too bad I think.

Some did models, some did drawings..

But, since I conducted the presentation from the first time, there's always people doing cooking as a hobby, this time as well.

Yew Ten, concentrating in his work.

Tada! The final work done. Very creative I would say. He puts chickens into the ice-cream cones. Surprisingly, it tastes nice.

Today, after Mufti Sunday, the officers brought the mime boys and those who didn't really get to eat during the 55th anniversary dinner to have a 'revenge'. So, we went makan buffet at Checkers restaurant, Dosen Hotel.

Not forgetting our Captain's Junior, Samuel. He's enjoying himself too.

Look! Is the chocolate nice?

Then, since boys are always boys, we did something ridiculous. Shi Ern brought us some oysters. Then I decided to challenge everyone to eat this funny-taste-yet-delicious oysters. Frankly, I have never tried it before. I almost vomited when I first ate it, haha!

I did a trick actually, I squeezed 2 slices of lemons into it to remove the weird taste.

Nah, a closer look. Look disgusting right? They are raw and cold!

I would definitely wanna try it again, of course with the lemon! Yea!

Alright, after such relaxing weekend, will be going back to college hostel tonight. Back to my never ending assignments and projects. Gambateh~!

Everybody cheers!

Home sweet...home!

Wao! It shocks me when I stepped into the house today, the floor tiles in the living hall are new!

Ya, I knew my dad would have done this. Now, I know it is good to have a cool-renovation-man-daddy. The previous floor tiles "pop" up, mum said it is because those are "China tiles". Alright, now I don't know what tiles are these...

*The side ones, those in yellowish white (under the cabinet), big tiles, were the old ones, the middle is the part that's changed - the border, the middle "lane", etc.*

Not bad I think, dare to be different, Haha!

Psst, my hostel tiles are "popped" up too, but the condo management seems to be ignorant. =.="

Vampire Knight Manga Anime Series

The art is attractive, but something seems slightly off about the facial proportions for the characters. Everyone has too much space between their nose and upper lip. The storyline skips around a little bit. At some points I was a little confused about what was going on because the characters changed locations so much without very much transition.

Vampire Knight (Vanpaia Naito?) is a shōjo manga and anime series written by Matsuri Hino. The series premiered in the January 2005 issue of LaLa magazine and is still on-going.

Two drama CDs were created for the series, as well as a twenty-six episode anime adaptation. Produced by Studio Deen, the anime series' first season aired in Japan on TV Tokyo between April 8, 2008 and July 1, 2008. The second season, titled Vampire Knight Guilty aired on the same station from October 7, 2008 and December 30, 2008. The anime uses many of the same voice actors as were used for the drama CDs.

Trinity Blood popular Manga and Anime Series

Trinity Blood (Toriniti Buraddo?) is a series of Japanese light novels written by Sunao Yoshida with illustrations by Thores Shibamoto and originally serialized in The Sneaker. Set 900 years after an apocalyptic war between humans and vampires, the series focuses on the on-going cold war between the Vatican and the Empire. Fighting on the Vatican's side is Abel Nightroad, a Crusnik which feeds on vampires. A blend of sci-fi, fantasy, and political intrigue, as some in the Vatican and the Empire strive for peace, other factions will do anything to stop it.

Trinity Blood has been adapted into both manga and anime series, with continuity differences between the three versions. After Yoshida's untimely death on July 15, 2004, Kentaro Yasui, his friend and the author of Ragnarok novels, stepped in to complete the remaining novels. Yasui also aided in completing the manga, with illustrations by Kiyo Kujō. The anime series, spanning 24 episodes, was produced by Gonzo and originally aired on WOWOW network.

The humans once attempted to colonize Mars after a massive population explosion. While on Mars, they discovered the Bacillus and Crusnik nanomachines. When the Bacillus nanomachines were embedded in humans, they were infected with a virus that changed them into vampires who had to feed on blood to survive. While this was happening on Mars, on Earth, continuing wars resulted in Armageddon, the apocalyptic war that nearly destroyed humanity. The vampires—who now call themselves Methuselahs—and the humans ended up in a war against each other when the Methuselah returned to Earth. 900 years later the surviving humans are still trying to recover from the war's devastating effects while trying to find ways to co-exist with the Methuselah despite the distrust and hatred still evident on both sides. The Vatican serves as the primary leader for the people in the on-going struggle for peace with the Methuselah, and in dealing with rogue factions from both sides that would like the war to continue. The Methuselah refer to humans as "Terrans", the Short-Lived Race.

Gunslinger Girl Popular Anime Series

Gunslinger Girl ( Gansuringā Gāru?) is an ongoing manga by Yu Aida. It first premiered in the November 2002 issue of the monthly shōnen magazine Dengeki Daioh. The chapters are also being published in collected volumes by MediaWorks. Nine volumes have been released in Japan as of April 2008. The manga series is licensed for an English language release in North America by ADV Manga. A thirteen-episode anime adaptation produced by Madhouse aired in Japan on Animax and Fuji Television from October 8, 2003, to February 19, 2004. A sequel created by Artland premiered in Japan on Tokyo MX TV on January 7, 2008. Titled Gunslinger Girl -Il Teatrino-, this sequel spanned thirteen episodes, concluding on March 31, 2008. Two additional episodes were released on DVD in Japan on October 24, 2008.

The core characters of Gunslinger Girl are the fratelli. To date, all of the fratelli shown consist of male handlers (usually in their mid 20s to 40s) with female cyborgs (usually in their early to mid teens). The relationship between a handler and a cyborg can be a complex one, and each fratello exhibits a unique dynamic. Most of the handlers have police or military backgrounds and were recruited directly into Section 2. Most handlers also chose their own cyborgs, though there is evidence that some had specific cyborgs assigned to them. Supporting the fratelli is the rest of Special Operations, Section 2. This includes the medical staff who both created the cyborgs and maintain them, other human operatives, and administrative and support staff. Arrayed against the fratelli are the members of the Five Republics Faction, also known as the Padania Republic Faction or PRF. The faction and its backers seek an independent northern Italy through acts of terrorism and bribery. They operate throughout Italy, though they are strongest in the northern regions.

Tsubasa Funimation Popular Manga Series

The name Clamp may sound odd and unfamiliar to Western ears, but this four-woman studio ranks among the most successful creators of manga, or graphic novels, in Japan and the United States. Over the last 17 years these women — Satsuki Igarashi, Apapa Mokona, Tsubaki Nekoi and Ageha Ohkawa — have produced 22 popular manga series, many of which have been adapted to animation, including “X,” “Chobits” and “Cardcaptor Sakura,” all available on DVD in the United States.

The lovely princess has the ability to move between different dimensions but this time, some evil forces are at work. They interfere and Sakura's soul is scattered, each piece of her drifting through the Universe. To save his love, Syaoran volunteers to gather her memories and restore her soul. In fact, he loves her so much, he's willing to sacrifice her memory of her love for him in order to bring her back.

Syaoran Tsubasa Manga Anime Pictures

Syaoran, a boy who wants to become an archeologist, and Sakura, a princess from the Clow Kingdom, are childhood friends with a close relationship. On a fateful night, Sakura lost all her memories as a result of a conspiracy to obtain her powers. In order to regain her memory, Syaoran seeks help from the witch, Yuuko. Yuuko tells Syaoran that he has to travel from one alternate reality to another to collect fragments of Sakura`s memory. However, even if Sakura regains her memory, she will have no recollection of Syaoran.

Syaoran, the son of "Syaoran" and "Sakura" (Note: not the ones in Cardcaptor Sakura), is sent into the shop of the Dimensional Witch, Yūko, by his parents because of a vision his mother had seen. Yūko sends him to Clow Country (The Country of the Eternal Tower) for seven days, where he arrives seven days before the birthday of that dimension's Sakura who looks like a younger version of his mother. Over the seven days, the two begin to fall in love with each other. On Syaoran's final day in Clow Country, the day of Sakura's birthday, Fei Wong Reed appears and, in spite of Syaoran's efforts to stop him, places a seal of death on Sakura that will eventually kill her. Syaoran tells Yūko that he chooses to remain in Clow Country at the price of never seeing his family and friends back in Japan again. He spends years searching for a way to remove the seal, but his searches are to no avail. When the seal is about to consume Sakura, Syaoran asks Yūko to turn time back to the day Fei Wong Reed placed the seal of death on Sakura in exchange for being Fei Wong Reed's prisoner until Syoaran reaches his current age.

The series starts several years after Syaoran wound back time, and it follows the clone of Sakura and of Syaoran, both creations of Fei Wong Reed. This Syaoran is a young archaeologist investigating a nearby ruin. Sakura has a vision of a mysterious symbol Syaoran found in the ruins. When she visits Syaoran in the ruins the next day, she stands on the symbol opening a secret room and disappears into it. Syaoran chases after and finds her with a pair of ghostly wings being pulled into the wall. He rescues her, but then her wings disintegrate into feathers that scatter across dimensions. The High Priest of Clow Kingdom, Yukito, immediately realizes that Sakura's "feathers" were the manifestation of her soul; without them, she will die.
