Throwback #3: ... This Thing
It is I~ Hey what's uppp, brosss?~ ( ・▽・)ノ
So, did you guys know that it is SO awkward to be around a mad friend. I have no idea how to comfort them. And telling them "cheer up" doesn't do much help, either. Like, ugh. Cheer up, man. You've no idea how awkward this makes the situation. >_<
AANYWAYS. ( ^-^)/
Since
I am quite lazy I don't feel like continuing this I'm running low on things to write throwbacks about actually, all of them I can't find the time to consistently blog about this topic, I'll make this one my last about the throwbacks. Yeah.
Today's throwback is about a game we used to play. I also have no idea how to call it, actually xD We play this whenever we had free time, or were bored, or just for no reason at all
Anyways, to play the game, we drew circles at the corners of a paper (that was our "base"), and represented ourselves as symbols. Like one is represented as a circle, a star... You get the gist of it.
Then, we flick (idk how to explain this xD) the pencil from your "base" to somewhere, and try to invade the enemy's base. Simple as that.
It was fun :3 But then, we used to play it on rough surfaces, so it was difficult xD
So... I guess that's it~ I'll make a new entry soon~ I'll make it more interesting, I promise (•̀u•́)و ̑̑
I feel a bit lazy right now, so.... I'M SORREEEHHH (✘Д✘) DON'T KILL ME PLEASE >_<
Oh, and I made a music player for my blog! Most of them are jazz and/or soothing-ish anime/game OSTs, though. I think it suits the atmosphere I'm aiming for (
˘⌣˘)/
Throwback #2: ... These Things, Whatever You Call Them xD
It is I. Hello there everyone ^_^
So... just a little insert for this post.
I just heard that the Robin Williams guy passed away recently.｡･ﾟﾟ･(>д<)･ﾟﾟ･｡
That's sad. I really liked this movie he starred in, entitled "Flubber". It's cool.I love that movie. Flubber is very kawaii
But still... Condolences to the dude's family and friends (.-.)
...Anyways, enough sadness! *awkwardly tries to change the topic* Welcome to my 5-post series of my throwbacks ｡◕‿◕｡
So far, we have one. The "crush gears"
Well then, let's move on to the next one (★^O^★)
Okay! Throwback number two: these things.
Am I the only one that remembers these things? I think we called them "gameboys" (just like those from Nintendo ◠‿◠)
My friends and I made one for each of us, then we'd pretend to play the game together and make random sound effects and stuff like that. Technically, we pretended that they were real consoles (〜￣▽￣)〜 We made only one for each of us and reaaally took care of it. Even if the paper's already crumpled and slightly torn, we'd still keep it (/•ิ‿•ิ)/ (Ahh... We were so imaginative back then xD)
After that, we'd cut out a whole bunch of rectangular papers and label them. Then those will be the game cartridges.
Oh, how creative we were~
... Well... It's either we were so creative and cute, or just plain desperate to play console games in school (๑>◡<๑)
Another thing. My friends and I used to crumple small pieces of used paper, and tie yarn around it. The we'd call it our pet (sometimes, I still do that... when no one's looking, of course >‿<)
So.... Yeah! (／・◡・)／
That's it for today's throwback. The question I'm gonna leave you guys today is: did you guys pretend to play on consoles like we did? xD
Imma end this post here. I've to study for a couple of big tests (which we'll take tomorrow ✖ o ✖)
Pray for me, my brochacos. I need all the help I can get xD
Rest in peace, Mr. Robert Williams *salutes*
Bye, mia amicos! (≧∇≦)/
Have an awesome night/day ♪(๑^◡^๑)♪
Throwback #1: "Crush Gears"
It is I. Hello, everyone~ ( ^-^)/
You thought I was dead? Well, I'm not!.... Yet xD
Hahahaha~ I miss blogging (T__T) I miss you guysss *hugs xD*
Anyways, I'm back! I realized that I should abandon my blog, because I love my blog ^_^
I was randomly pondering upon the past, when I stumbled upon my elementary years. The years when we were all playful and energetic, (more) imaginative and adorable (we still are though. Natch! xD)... So I thought, "hey, why not make a throwback week?".
And so, here we are. Uh.... Ta-daaah~ ♪ \(^_^;)/
That was lame of me LOL
Anywayyyss, let me begiiin!
Throwback number one: Crush Gears
Back in my earlier elementary years (around grade 1-2), these were all in rage. I remember the dudes making a lot of them, and "battling" with each other. Even some of the girls did that. We'd modify them, add colors, designs, and attach some small spikes made of paper to add their "attack power". Then, they'd flick the little things around and hit the other person's crush gear, and try to push them off the table.
I thought it was fun, actually. I used to play the game, too xD Not with the people in school though. I sucked at the game... I just played with myself LOL *forever alone*
Now, it has become a little childhood memory amongst our schoolmates. No one plays this anymore, because it seems childish, now that we're in junior high school (￣O￣;)
Hmmm.... should I try and make this a trend again? *conspicuously strokes chin*
Well, that's it for throwback #1. Chloe's gonna end the post here ☆*:.｡. o(≧▽≦)o .｡.:*☆
So, I guess I'll ask you guys: Did you have these things back then? Maybe something similar?
Hillsong~
Hiiiii everyoneee!!! ( ^-^)/
It's been a while!~ How was everyone? I'm sorry I hadn't posted this. Actually, I was planning to post this entry a week ago, but oh well~ >_<
Anyways, last June 11 I went to the Hillsong concert here in Manila with some of the peeps from my church.
 |
| Seeeee?? Here's my ticket~ (^_^)v |
Anyways, it was SO COOL. No words. Nothing else. All you gotta know that it was super duper awesome. I was totally blown away by that. It. Was. Awesome.
They mostly played the songs from the new album Zion (RELENTLESSSS!! OCEANSSS!!! *\(^o^)/*)
Anyways, it was totally amazing. The place was supeeer crammed with tons of people (I heard that even my teacher went there o.o).
 |
| Look at it! The place is suppeeeer fuull! I was kinda surprised, actually` (O.O) |
See? It's supppeeeeer full. We're lucky to get good seats (=w=)b
Anyways, it was totallyyy awweeessooomeeee!!
No other words~ >u<
Did anyone else go? What did you think?
I think they were totally cooollll ☆*:.｡. o(≧▽≦)o .｡.:*☆
Update! (And some TWEWY love~)
It is I
Hello everyoneeeee!!~ （^人^）
How are you guys?
Me?
My summer has been quite uneventful, I must say....
I WASN'T ABLE TO GO TO OZINE FEST ASDFGHJKL (T^T)
AND MY SUMMER WAS NOT SPENT WISELYYYY
Well anyways, let's forget about that because I don't want to remember that another year of indirect mental torture studying draws near... Σ（ﾟдﾟlll）
So yeah. Recently, a friend introduced me to this game called The World Ends With You (Abbreviated as TWEWY).
AND I AM CURRENTLY VERY ADDICTED TO IT. ( * u * )
 |
| Characters from left to right: Joshua, Neku, Beat (on top), Shiki, Rhyme |
I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THE GAME. LIKE, SERIOUSLY.
The characters, the art, the soundtracks -- I love them all! I love the story line, too (and the fact that Square Enix is one of the game's developers >u< I like most of Square Enix's works~)!
Anyways, TWEWY is set in a Shibuya. Neku Sakuraba (a.k.a. main character, and the one you'll be controlling), an antisocial and emo-ish teenage boy wakes up at Scramble Crossing (a place in Shibuya) without any recollection of any of his memories or of what happened to him (in short, he has an amnesia at a very convenient time. Sigh... main characters... *shakes head*).
He wanders around and a girl (named Shiki) ran to him and suddenly asked him to make a pact with her. Of course, if you had amnesia then it would be troubling, no? Shiki explained to Neku that they were in the Reapers' Game and they have to make a pact if they want to survive, and fight Noise (the "monsters" in the game), ect. ect. ect.
Well... that's kinda how it started.
And here's the setting and themes of the story, according to the Wiki:
The setting of The World Ends with You is heavily based on the Japanese city of Shibuya, including major landmarks like the Scramble Crossing. It even has the same currency, Yen (¥), which is used in shops. Many elements of the game are also based on Japanese culture, including the food, fashion and artwork in the game.
This game makes me want to go visit Shibuya someday!~ ^_^
Anyways, if I were asked who my favourite character was... I probably can't decide. Each character is really awesome. (But I am a bit into Joshua right now. He's sly and mysterious and Ikindathinkheisabitcoolokdontjudgeme) (>//u//<)
But I'm kinda into Beat as well... He's quite entertaining and he's a bit tsundere~ Oh what to do, what do do...? #fangirlproblems
And! I thought Rhyme was a boy... But she's actually a girl! I was surprised~ >u< She kinda looked boyish... But heck. She's cool.
Oh, and Rhyme is Beat's sister! But Rhyme does not know because her memories are Beat's entrance fee!
^ Spoilerrrr >_< Highlight if you want to see it ^_^
And Neku! Such character growth! He used to be sooooooooooooo emo, but as the game progresses, he becomes a better person <3 (also, I like his outfit)
AND
I kinda like Sho Minamimoto, the second week's game master. (Yes, there was a second week.
... Oops. Spoiler >_<)
I don't know why I even like him. His statements are too vague and cryptic, and he always cracks math jokes (hence his nickname, Pi-Face). And I suck at math >_>
But then again, all the characters in the game are likable.
... Well, Neku might be a bit annoying at first but he gets better ^_^
Also, the battles... Yes, they were very challenging indeed. That's a very steep mountain you'll have climb before you'll be able to be an expert at it. Honestly, they intimidated me at first. Controlling two characters is no easy task. But, you'll get used to it after playing long enough, I guess.
I TOTALLY RECOMMEND THIS GAME
I RATE IT FIVE OUT OF FIVE
Anyways, I do think this game is very very good. It's worth a try~
On a side note, I started watching
Brothers Conflict a couple of days ago (I'm currently on episode 4)...
I can't believe I'm actually jealous of Ema! >.< I kinda like Fuuto, Louis, Yusuke and Subaru... Huehuehuehuehue >_<
So.. I guess that's it for today! Thank you everyone for reading, if you still are~ Sorry for being fangirl-y today >_<
See you guys next time! ( ^-^)/
Just an update ☆
Hello again, everyoneee! ( ^-^)/
It is I!
JGH from youth camp last week!~ It was awesome! The place was so cold and windy though (｀ω´ )
Anyways, Ozine Fest is just around the corner~ Anyone going? I want to, but none of my friends will go... (T ^ T) Ugghhhh... It can't be helped... The venue is kinda far, after all (SM Mall of Asia)
Anyways, how're you all? ^_^
Hi guysss ^_^
Heyyy there everyone ヽ(*^_^)ﾉ♪
It is I
Sorry for lack of posts. Even if it's summer and all and I have a colossal amount of free time. Like, seriously. I don't even have anything share-worthy to tell you guys. Everyday's the same old same old >_<
Anyways, because of that free time, I have stumbled upon what anime fangirls call
otome games.
Apparently, they're like anime-styled dating sims for the female audience.
Ok, so I tried playing one.
AND
OHMYGLOB
THE GUYS
THE GUYS ARE AWESOME
AND HANDSOME \(*u*)/
I never thought that I would ever say to myself "
I hope senpai will notice me"
And this isn't even about a real-life guy >u< So... Just FYI, the otome game I played is called Girlish Love Revolution! (Love Revo for short)
Lately, I also began catching up on my manga reading. I started reading this series called Liar Game. It's very veryyy interesting so far. Akiyama is awesome (he reminds me of
Light Yagami. They look really similar IMO >u<)
I'm also catching up on Skip Beat! It's really cool ^_^ The main girl, Kyoko Mogami, is so funny >u<
She's so clueless that Ren and Corn is the same person LOL Spoiler alert
(You can read Skip Beat!
here, and Liar Game
here)
Hahahahahaha, just sharing my boredom to you guys. Anyways, how are your summer breaks? Did anything interesting happen, or are just as bored as me (or maybe even more?)?
