I am not proud of my country.

I don't know if I said it before, I am Filipino. And in the other room, there are men and women singing American songs, hey Filipinos, sing your own damn songs. Every Sunday a variety show airs on T.F.C.-- A.S.A.P. "All Star Sunday Afternoon Party." Random Filipino stars come up on stage to sing and dance, when I catch glimpses of this, I am disgusted because, not only is the camera work very shaky and messy, the dancing seems improvised, when they sing, they all sound out-of-breath, when they sing, it's a really crappy rendition of popular songs in the U.S., sometimes, even crappier than various covers on Youtube. They are all television stars in the Philippines, they are all supposedly good singers, they are all supposedly good dancers, some are even talk show hosts elsewhere! Blah!

Now I must admit that there are good singers that do sing on stage, only two though, Sarah Geronimo, and Zsa Zsa Padilla. Here's my words of advice to them, sings songs in Tagalog, only! Don't try to sing some fast-paced song that doesn't match your singing style, it only pisses me off more! Slow songs are your one and only forte.

Don't get me wrong, I would love to go to the Philippines, to enjoy sights and go places and shopping and be with my family, nothing else, if I were invited to go to "Wowowee" I wouldn't go. If I were invited to meet each and every single one of the Filipino stars, maybe. So they can spoil me with things. Haha.

Another rant, Soap Operas! GAH! There are so many soap operas my parents and grandparents love to watch, every time I see them watching, I question them with, "Ugh, why are you watching that?" Only jokingly, I then leave the room.

Music and Halo 3

Today I went to my friends house, he's got a drum set, guitars, bongos, a piano, many instruments! I've only been to his house two times, both times were very fun. We first played Halo 3 and I got better, lol. And then, we wanted to make a cover, I was on the drums, one on the guitar, one singing, it was pretty fun~ it was our second "Jam Session" and I enjoy those kinds of things very much, we all have a great sense of music, and boom, put it together, you've got yourself your own little jam session. I can play the piano by ear, and I guess I have a good sense of rhythm , and so, I can immediately come up with some beats on the drum, I am far from even amateur though!

About Halo 3, I sucked at it the first time I came over, I always was coming in third and stuff, I was sadded. This time, I was coming in second and third with multi-player! Haha! I was happy.

Airsoft Guns

So, there's this great store in Walnut, Airsoft G.I.. I live very close to it! I went there earlier today with the intentions of buying a cheap, 80 dollar sniper rifle, to shoot my friends with, I ended up not buying it, I found out I needed to sign up, to be helped, bleh. I ended up spending about 45 minutes walking around their little shop, until I finally left, It was a waste of my time, on the way home, I wanted to mention to myself, the good things about this trip which was a waste of gas and an embarrassment. Here's what I came up with, I like guns even more now, haha, the guns looked so appealing!!

When I walked in, I wanted to wave around a G36 with a double-drum magazine thingy, I could guarantee I was going to be kicked out if I did. Then there was this guy, who was going on and on about making guns and stuff, he was one of those people, who's voice sounds dorkishly white and high-pitched, who, yes, knew a lot about airsoft guns, but he's one of those people I find annoying, and I sometimes pity people like that.

Reminds me of a time at work, there was a man who wanted a cookie.(a Costco cookie--6.99 for a lot-of-em) He walked up and said, "99 cents for a cookie?"(Resale price) It was at this point I assumed that he was just complaining about the price for this cheap, dry-ish cookie, he still wanted to buy it!

"I will take that cookie, for 99 cents." He said. I replied with, "The cookies are kind of--dry though..." He didn't care, he still wanted one! Meh. I sold him the cookie and sent him off with a prayer.

Final Fantasy Advent Children Complete

I just saw Final Fantasy Advent Children Complete today, I was excited when I heard there was going to be more scenes and stuff, but I'm not so excited that people had to pay the full price for 30 extra minutes, glad I ********** it. The only part I was meekly impressed with, Sephiroth and Cloud's fight, it was great that I got to see some blood as well. Other wise, I just sped through 90% of the movie, only slowing down for the action scenes, blah, I liked Denzel's little move with the fire hydrant, I will do that some day. (Not what Denzel did exactly, but if I want to gather momentum to break something, that's what i'll do.

Dream Big.

I am currently in possession of the Nikon D3000. I love it a lot, and I forgot to mention that I am very materialistic, so, I have a small D-SLR, I want a bigger one. Ha. Seriously, I have my sights set on bigger, more professional-looking cameras! Ken Rockwell said, it doesn't matter what camera you have, you can still take great pictures, I agree with that, but I also am a student with no financial things to worry about...yet... So, that being said, I would like to buy a new camera, be a good man, and sell my old camera to one of my friends or something for a cheap price. This will all take place in like, a year or sumfin.

Shoryuken.

You don't know. I love Street Fighter IV! I play with most characters, except the four new ones. Ugh. I don't remember when I got Street Fighter IV, but I do know that my skill has increased since then, before, my uncle would beat the crap out of me, now, we're an even match, the first weeks of Street Fighter IV, he'd get perfects on me, he'd do all kinds of things to me, tease me, look-at-me now! Two days ago, I beat him 10 battles in a row, he could only do that when I first started playing. Haha.

I can't wait for Super Street Fighter IV to come out! I'm so excited! I'm gonna buy it! Along with Final Fantasy XIII as well. Haha. Questions?

Mobile Suit Reviews.

Sinanju

Oh the Sinanju. It is a great model. nuff' said. haha.

It's a great model because it's big, it's red, it's got a good looking beam rifle, it's big, hmm...

Although painting the gold on was a pain( the picture is sticker, I later removed stickers and used gold Gundam Marker..FAIL JOB)

Gundam Exia.

It's a great Master Grade model kit. I guess I just don't like my Exia. it's leg peg thingy is loose.(The piece to connect the leg to the lower torso is worn-out) FAIL.

I love its weapons! I'm not too big of a fan of the chrome-plated GN Blades, when not cut correctly, they look like poop. I like the GN Sword, although my fail-cutting really showcased the ugliness of the blade, I tend not to notice it. Otherwise, the Exia is very pose-able, it looks great, very scary and intimidating sometimes, it's great. Questions?

Crossbone Gundam Full Cloth

I know it will be kind of boring because there will not be many pictures to accompany my typing, but, if you want to see more pictures, just go to dalong.net~!

Ahhh, where do I start?

My all-time favorite MG Model kit, ever.

Why? Because it's epic. Why? because not only does the Gundam come with a vast array of armaments, it's super pose-able, it looks great with all its stuff. Although there are many flaws, like, its Peacock Smasher not being able to stay in its hand because it's too heavy! But the other gun, gosh, it looks great when Crossbone is holding it! The two swords are great, the scimitar-looking one is great, it stays in Crossbones hands exceptionally well. The other sword, with spikes and all, it's a bit heavy, but Crossbone can still hold it. I spent a lot of time on this Gundam, modding it and all, but my fun ended when it broke! I guess I posed it way too much, a part on its knee broke. I am sadded now. I want to get another one. Or steal the part. XD

Change of Plans

Remember when I said I was gonna go to Japan? Not this year. Wanna know why?

Why not to go to Japan this year.

There is a group of 5 friends, only three will have money to get to Japan this year, I want to go with everyone.

Priority-wise, yes, Japan is a goal, but I like friends too, and I'm not throwing away Japan, I am definitely going next year, I know it's just going to be more fun and enjoyable next year because I have my friends with me.

Why to go to Japan this year.

There is no reason, I just wanted to fulfill my passion, of going to Japan by myself, I called it sanctuary. (Me by myself)

So yes, but that doesn't mean I'm going to stop saving money! It means I can be more lenient with myself, you know, make saving plans and stuff, take a 20 out of every paycheck, etc. I can do it. ^^

V Gundam

I finished building it.

Katoki Hajime is a great mecha designer, his designs look plausible in the real world.

I have a complaint to file about Bandai's MG V Gundam Ver. Ka.

I love the design and all, I love how it looks, here's what I don't like at all.

The Gundam is a tranforming one, probably the transforming gimmick was its selling point. I should not have bought it. I have realized, that from this Master Grade model kit, I do not like transforming Gunpla. The V Gundam itself is pretty small compared to other UC mobile suits, it's the smallest MG Gundam model kit. so, with that, they have to jam in many mechanisms and moving things so the Gundam can transform.

The Gundam is also mostly plastic to plastic, so that means, in no time, it will lose stiffness. I wanted to buy the Gundam because it was a Ver Ka, I like the V gundam, I thought it was gonna be a good kit, it's not. And now I have been sadded, because I also wasted 45 dollars for the clear parts that I will never use. Bah.

The Pros:

It's a Ver. Ka.

I like the Victory Gundam

The Cons:

Joints are loose.

Leg connection is like crap.

Arm connection is like crap.

Body connection is like crap.

Not a wide variety of weapons.

Original price was 3800 yen(about 42 dollars) I payed 45. ( I payed 15 dollars over) It should have only cost 3000 yen. ( I think)
