My Kare Kano

a slice of life?

Tuesday, February 19, 2008

I just bought a new computer before the end of 2007, exactly afternoon-evening of December 31st. It took a lot of money out of me and I'm still suffering the whiplash. I don't care, I have a new computer.

Anyway, my Parents were wondering how I've been able to save despite my cash drawback.

I wonder too. But I think it's just my urge to buy something that I want that made me save. -- that doesn't make any sense, does it?

In other words, if one want to buy something but doesn't have the money: either get a job and work hard... or get a piggy bank and save hard. I just saved. Simple. However it isn't when there's lot of things one wants to buy.

I bought games. Junk, huh? That's my Parent's opinion. Or maybe yet, an adult's opinion. But they were impressed how I managed my money. I didn't have a job call this January, and my allowance has been cut to $20 a week. Anyway, it's not junk. It's an asset! (Yeah, thank you accounting for the term.) In a time when Videogame studios make tons of money from making games, one cannot say that the junk of before is still the junk of today. Games aren't junks. People make a living by creating games today.

Don't get me wrong, my Parents were just kidding.

I think they meant that I should've bought a variety of things, rather than one kind of merchandise, right?

Oh man, I feel that school work's going to be stiff. Of all that time doing nothing but waiting and studying because there's nothing else to do... well, now that there's something else to do, I wonder if I still have time to study. I should. Or else, my arguments (e.g arguments of skipping class / staying up late) won't become valid with my class card failing to back me up.

Speaking of class card, now that I'm able to blog back in My Kare Kano, I'm not quite sure where to start rebuilding this site. This site have been really really slow for the past 6 months. Inactivity isn't my habit -- not all the time

There's a story why I took a long absence in updating My Kare Kano. I've been doing a multitude number of web projects; my own web projects. These two of my drawings are from my e-novel: "Yuu, Andy, Ai", a pun for You and I, if I will.

I know, I know. An e-novel? Me? BWAHARHARHAR. ye right.

No, it's true. I am writing e-novels. I'm using different multiple mediums of art and writing. It's taking me a long time to build it because I have no outside help creating the platform and writing. And I have work, school, film course, my life, my Playstation, my food, etc. *inhales*

I just pray for the best.

Anyway, tomorrow's going to be the big kahuna for me in Filming. We're going to write our scenes. WAH! I don't even know what I'm going to do. A love story? A horror? A chick flick? A dick flick? A comedy? Erm... a drama? What? I can't even beg for money.

My life's going to get tougher overall.

surveying the 'damage'

Friday, February 08, 2008

You think I'm gone? I'm not.

I don't blame you. There's just a lot of stuff that's happening and, yes, it sounds like your typical + cliche + GASGASnaYAN line, but it's true. BTW, gasgas na yan in English also means cliche (seen it, heard it, boring). So... how redundant can I get?

Wow, I've missed so much action in Blogdrive that I didn't notice the changes Blogdrive took. For example, the google ads below each entry. Bleagh. Oh well, I'm too cheap to subscribe, so I'll just stick with the compromise. Which means, all my blogs in blogdrive will be affected. Yep, google ads everywhere. I'm not complaining. NOooo.

*in time... I will own a website and make it my own of my own* Bwarharharhar.

I'm so happy that people still visit this humble blog + fansite. It's just a pity that I've overlooked all the hardwork that I've spent making this website. It's already two years old. And I remember the early days of creating it. Oh how I spend and burn the midnight oil until 4 am. Then ride a bus to Manila afterwards. Bwarharharhar. Eeeh.... please don't run away from me.

I'm on a new gig this time. My school, Elmwood High, told me to take a course in Basic Filming. It's a ten week program. We're on the fourth week and I don't think I can take it anymore. Don't get me wrong, I like filming and someday I want to shoot my own indie film, but it's really grueling and it's NOT REALLY my interest. I don't even have a videocam. And all the kids in the program are highly inclined in filming. I'm not, and I feel left out.

Wow, I'm such a whiner. But it's the truth. My classmates also know the history of filming, the significance of Quentin Torentino... sorry... Tarantino. And they're like *HOW CAN YOU NOT KNOW QUENTIN TARANTINO?!*

Oh well *shrugs*

Anyway, filming is interesting. I just hope they'd hold the class during spring... or summer... when it's not snowing. Yeah, the weather too! I just want to go home after class. It's cold here in Winnipeg right now. It's hard to wait for the bus for 15 mins, after all the mind exhaustion at school, under a -30C weather. *MMMM! FUN! FUN!*

I had so much paper work to finish.

It's the start of the second semester and I feel like I should go back updating each fansite of mine, right? Right! I hope.

update:
I've added the 'changelog link' at the left sidepanel. the changelog link will give you updates or changes regarding My Kare Kano.

a schedule is deadly.

Wednesday, August 15, 2007

Daaaaaaamn. August 1? My last entry? Where the hell have I been?

And here I am updating just now, August 15. Shame. Oh well, who cares.

Even though it's still quite a while for September to show up on the calendar, I have to find another job that would suit the evening / weekend shifts. Classes start on September, so I can't work on weekday mornings anymore. I just quit my weekday job

and I'll be begging off *yet again* my primary job and primary schedule to satisfy my weekend schedule. AND it doesn't stop there. In order for me to enter college, I have to replace the job I just quit and fill up two weekday evening shifts.

I have to go to college AND buy a Wii, PS3, Xbox 360, a Car... okay, I'm going to shut up.

It all comes down to this:
Job A - Saturday and Sunday.
Job B - Wednesday and Friday evening.
Job C - everyday! You gotta love freelancing!

Anyway, I'm not here to brag about my schedule or what not. Who the hell would brag about this stuff?! Just thinking about it is exhauuusting! Totally for the workaholic!

I'm here to talk about studying and working at the same time. One has to be uncanny to balance both of these two at the same time. But let's not forget guys who study and work and have girlfriends and visa versa...

I mean how do they pull it?!

I know a lot of people who do this much work. I envy them. Wish they could teach me... to have a girlf-- erm I mean... get a decent job and decent grades.

I really want to be efficient with my life.

Anyway, I missed posting on this blog. I was away for personal reason. I just wanted to rest from being an anime enthusiast. I'm working on my own project right now. Not an anime fansite or a political website. It's too early to tell. If you're interested with its development, then stay tuned.

Well, I gotta go. Sleep awaits. Oyasumi!
