Feeling a bit lonely



Everyone feels a bit lonely once and a while... but today is a bit different than the usual.
Photography isn't my thing.

Photography by themilktea, using Sony Ericsson's W800i Camera phone.
Props provided by themilktea, bear was a present from a friend, rocks were found in the backyard.
Setting at my bedroom window.
Edited photo using Photoshop and Jasc Paint Shop Pro.

Please note that the only camera I have is W800i c-phone, all my other previous photographs I have taken are all taken by my c-phone. I do not own a professional shutter shot camera, so please don't ask what camera I use, because the only camera I have is w800i c-phone . the Photos were digitally altered to improve the quality... Ah... the power of photoshop.

"Please remember me... "

My Anime "Watching Now" Schedule :)

This post focuses on the previous 'Anime based' post. Like I said I'm watching 5 animes.
( have recently 'stalled' Bleach... It's dragging my anticipation of the Arrancar Arc)

Monday: -
Tuesday: Kimi ni Todoke
Wednesday: -
Thursday: Durarara
Friday: -
Saturday: Katekyo Hitman Reborn, Detective Conan
Sunday: One Piece

This is the actual schedule of when the anime is aired in Japan. I tend to watch with English Subtitles and therefore the sub releases are sometimes delayed (causing me to fall behind the actual aired date). Anyways I'm grateful of the fansub groups that take up subbing all the anime's im watching, even though sometimes they are late in releasing it - I can take up the self discipline to wait patiently for it!

I'm currently working on my Project for school... therefore my time for daily (should I say weekly) blogging will be limited. I announce my hiatus for a couple of weeks (in reality a few days, just said weeks so that I sound like im a studious student)

Uncertainty - Annoyance, Pain

"Love that repeats after and after. In the end it is so trivial.
Believing that these 'whimsical time are forever'
Believing that, the uncertainty is destined.
TEARS - LAUGHTER - LOVE - HATE ...."

"Compare to the immeasurable scale of a lightyear... Perhaps a lifetime is but a mommentary dream."
Sound Horizon : Elysion~ Stardust

Love is a bothersome factor in life, yet so mysteriously can be both sweet but painful

Luffy's ultimate loss

I have come across an awesome AMV? or Video dedication to the famous episode in which Luffy's Straw Hat Crew is seperated. I've actually watched this a couple of times, this incident happened BEFORE the Impel Down Arc. As you can see the desire in which Luffy want's Kuma to stop.
This is one of the moments in which those who are dedicated One Piece fans get emotional...

The unfortunate seperation of the Straw Hat Crew...




The video is by ZarakiZervosKenpachi on YT who collected the clip segment and edited it into a "dramatic" video dedication to this epic scene.

Layout 'Change' once again...

Wow, unexpectedly a new layout change again. I was actually bothered this time of the year when I'm practically busy with my studies, therefore you can see I did a quick job in editing the image; pretty scrappy if you ask me.

Anyways, I have currently put my anime on hold and have been currently re-watching old episodes of Detective Conan, One Piece and Katekyo Hitman Reborn. All I know is that if I end up watching new episodes I'll become addicted again.

For now I'm aiming to concerntrate on my studies this year as it may determine my future career (as of what asian parents most commonly say). But although I say that... I havent given up on anime, it's just that I wont be watching it as frequently as I use to.

So far I'm watching my anime slowly paced...

And here's another of my random anime post's (I am currently watching 6 anime's and here's my thought and rankings of it for now)

6. Bleach - huh?
A last choice of my list, I'm currently catching up on the random filler arc ... Basically I have no interest in watching further on this arc, I mean... now that the "Arrancar" arc has somehow cut off and here comes an insert filler arc, somehow I'm not in the mood; because I want to watch the Arrancar arc. But this -insert filler arc- somehow is extending the anime .... and drifting away from the Arrancar arc.

5. Katekyo Hitman Reborn - really now...
Uh, I had a tough decision in putting this in 5th this month. The anime itself is getting interesting, but wierdly twisted. But no matter what I'll somehow watch it, because this anime rocks. In comparison to the daily life filler arcs, this one's interesting in a way, although the animal box weapon ideas are slightly lame.

4. One Piece - Bon-Chan!
I'm loving this current arc... I mean the reunion with the previous enemies as Luffy travels down each level, but now crisis occurs as Luffy is fighting the strong enemy (I'm trying to avoid spoilers). I still don't like the idea of seperating the Straw Hat crew, it would've been hilarious if all the crew members were with Luffy trying to break down to the lowest level of Impel Down. Now I'm curious of the future episodes, whether if the Straw Hat crew mates will ever re-unite, if so how? This im looking forward ot it.

3. Detective Conan - rise of the dead?
Wah? Not really the rise of the dead.. but somehow a character which appears to be dead re-appears at a random robbery crime, so many mysteries surrounding if this guy Akai is actually the dead Akai. Or maybe the dead Akai appears to be somewhere else and this random scar Akai is a person in disguise... Uh, so much confusion... everything's shrouded in mystery in the world of Conan, let's wait until the mystery prevails (Probably in the next 100 episodes).

2. Kimi ni Todoke - the romance blossoms
This could probably be the best shoujo-romance anime I've ever watched. The animation design isn't what I expected it to be, but the storyline itself is genuinely sweet. I'm waiting for the 2 main characters to develop a much deeper relationship, but I do hope there'll be some kind of obstacle. If there's an obstacle in some way, this will become much more interesting.


1. Durarara - wait, wait... what?
This is one hectic anime. So confusing, so many things unfold in the last 5 episodes... this involves the headless rider, a black market doctor? Color gangs, Kida's past, connections between Shizuo and Izaya, a perverted teacher? Slasher, Dollars? The mystery identities revolving the online chat room that Mikado visits often... Many things that I'd like to find out in the future episodes... each episode is like a cliff hanger to me.

Romeo and Cinderella

A bittersweet love song... One of the best songs I've ever heard. This song is also a 'Vocaloid' made song, although the lyrics and sound production itself is awesome.

I recently came across a video which had a "live action" PV of this song.
The video discription states that this was done by students who were doing an activity project, apprently they are 'amateurs' which I think they're more of a professional.

Anyways, this PV is highly reccommended, I even subscribed to their channel because of this PV production. I don't know who produced it, but I'd say a job well done in expressing this vocaloid song. I'm not sure if the person who uplaoded it is the creater/production team who made the video but you can visit 422kaname's channel.

I fell in love with animating... Ok, I know im not a professional just as yet. But I have storyboarded some idea's for the song "*tears* which is my absolute favourite.

Sneak peek of the 1min animation of *tears* storyboard... It will be completed at the end of the year hopefully after my exams.. for now I should be on with my holiday homework instead of the *themilktea:tearsPROJ.*

Spoiler: water and tears and rain....

Konbini - Halyosy (Release) [updated]

Another release, thought I'd triple the release of english subs in the holidays before I enter the war of studies again.

Another Nico Nico Douga based MV, orignally sang by Miku Hatsune (Vocaloid), Halyosy rendered it's upbeat melody to a much soothing ballad or so. An original and classic story about a man's feelings towards a girl who works at a "konbini" store (a.k.a. convenience store). Purely a cute and funny convenience store love story.

Video was removed (Was afraid of the 3rd strike from youtube, meanwhile you can still download it here)

Like I said before, I'm considering releasing downloadable links for the MP3 or eng sub video, that's if I get enough requests.

UPDATED: I got a request to upload the MP3 AND VIDEO for it and here it is...

HQ MP3 (MU)

MQ AVI (MU)



NOTE: PLEASE DO NOT UPLOAD IT ON YT (Except on my account of course) or REDISTRIBUTE :) You may download for your personal entertainment. But please to not upload it onto video streaming sites other than I uploading it via my OWN account. If you are intending to use it as a reference PLEASE LINK BACK AND CREDIT!
