Added a few more things on Syat's log. ^^ Then I checked it out with my NN 4.5 and everything is screwed. Damn netscape. I think NN 6 should work fine... I better renew my NN. But I was right to put the "IE 5+" bit in the layout ^^ So SYATTT don't open it with a netscape OK? Going to bed now >.<

well it seems Syat's not on tonite to see the layout I made fo her ^^ oh well... Hm, after 3 epis of Outlaw Star, this anime gets more and more interesting. I even found both the opening and ending songs getting more and more enjoyable. It gets funnier too. I watched Kodomo no Omocha epi 1 today, courtesy of my Pub director, David. Real funny and silly, that one ^^ Rei seems quite cool... I want to see him without his sunglasses. David also taught me a real neat CSS thingy and more on graphic stuffs *bleary eyes* I want a Photoshop now *eyes her always full-to-the-limit harddisk* Which programs am I going to ditch now to make space.... hmmmmmmmmmmmm..... I did more work on ZS v2.01 today.... I'm quite proud of myself actually. ^^ I have about 5 more pages to write, add a few more things to the existing files, and double check everything and it'll be ready :) Dendry is back so I made a point dropping by to his room and nagged him to let me use his Cd-R to copy all KareKano episodes to bring home to Jakarta ^^ He's a very nice boy :) hee hee hee hee... *sly laugh* Boyzone Farmies, Leigh was on a few hours ago.... then she disappeared when I was taking my shower. Daddy, where the hell are you? Don't tell me you're studying for finals??????? They're easy! Whaddya need to study for?? -_- Going back to watch Outlaw Star and surf.....!!

been watching Outlaw Star!!!! *happy face* It looks like a cool series, probably the most amazing mixture of everything I've seen so far : western, sci-fi, futuristic, chinese magic..... wow... and Gene is not bad either ^^ Jim reminds me of Omi. ^^ oh hey Syat graciously allowed me to make a layout for her log since I've been complaining to her that I need more layout-making practice. I'll do my best, dear! But err... please expect me using anime pics, ne? I promise it'll be niceee! (I hope so!!!) Mommychas just told me she read my log everyday! Yay! *hugz mommy* Finally, someone who does! :) Hahaha.... me gonna bring you errr... karekano vcds when I go home mommy! Anything you want to order? :) err.... *sweatdrop* I think I need to work on ZS tonite... have been negelcting it so far. But promise, at the latest, it'll be up by Dec 19. Never mind, all day long I was being kept busy with painting banners (they're done now, yay!), BizComm work, and hanging around at the Dance room to help my neighbour with her group's full-dress rehearsal. Aren't I nice? :)

I am so tired and hungryyyyyyyyy! And I didn't really have a good day -_- This is so bad *sigh* Whatever. I'll just work harder this time. So, how do you like the Yuki pic? He's sooooooooooooo drool-worthy, ne? Sarah, I'm only borrowing the scan for a while so it's ok ne? ^_^x Somehow I couldn't help noticing Yuki's ear looks suspiciously like a rat's ^^ Well, he IS a rat... ^^ Oh as for the layout title, it has something to do with the meaning of Yuki's name... I checked out Sarah's page about the name, as well as my trusted Kanji dictionary and found something different about it, so I'll just e-mail Sarah later to tell her about it. Daddy, you are the BEST! *hugz Toshi* Your moral and integrity and sexual orientation are a bit doubted, but you're still the best daddy in the world!!! You're also an idiot but I still love you :) I'm such a nice, loyal, filial daughter... *sigh* ne, it seems I'm going to have a hectic day tomorrow. *frown* Oh I finished a section of ZS yesterday and am having this problem with this script thingy, but I'll get it sorted out tomorrow. The latest day v2.01 will be uploaded is Dec 19th by midnight (or dawn). I promise!!!!

Anyway, Christine sent me a long birthday e-mail full of words of wisdom saying I'm all grown up now. *rolls eyes* Doesn't she realized she's YOUNGER than me? Damn that girl ^_^ Even my (real) mom told me yesterday that I'm 19 and I still act as if I'm 12. *rolls eyes* I don't think I'm growing up in any sense. Oh, ok, I HAVE outgrown my boyband phase ^^ Besides that, nothing else has. Why do I feel like I'm more mature when I was 12 than I am now? I was a very mature and serious child in junior high. (That, or I just had a fatalist point of view of the world) Then in senior high everything just degenerated from then on, NOT that I'm complaining. I like myself now just fine so I shouldn't care about what other people think, ne? On the brighter note, my mom bought me Fruit Basket vol 1-4 HHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Now if she weren't here I'd buy it one by one but she insisted on buying the entire available volumes so to save me the trip back and forth to the store. Now I can use my money to buy other mangas *evil cackles* Sarah, I totally TOTALLY love Yuki!!! *drools* I can't wait to get my hands on vol 5 and 6 now!!! Oh I also like Kyou and Hatsuharu! You were right, it IS full of bishounens!!!! Hyaaaa--! And thanks to my wonderful 3sos1 friends who, like I suspected, swarmed my mailbox with birthday e-mails... you guys are the BEST! Now I have to treat you guys out when I go home hahahaha.... :) I can be very nice when I want to, ne? It seems like no one from 1-6 remembered my birthday :( So sad! Where the hell are you guys!!! Even my mommy and my daddy *sob sob* YOU'RE DEAD!!!!! *pulls out kodachi* I need shower... my mom just called to tell me not to take showers in the middle of the night anymore -_-
Sunday, December 3, 2000, 03:16 p.m.
Well..... I'll be spending several nights at my aunt's place since my mom is here, so I won't be around for my birthday to see what wonderful things you guys will give me *wink, wink* :) So whatever it is you want to send me, just send it and I'll get back to you in one or two days. I reckon the 3sos1 ppl will be swarming my mailbox in no time. Maybe I should set a notice to the pssmukie mailing list as well heh heh heh heh.... nah. However, there are some people out there who MUST give me a real gift -_- PIE, you're one of them. Daddy, are you my daddy or not? PRESENTS! Kay has bought me my precious CCS mangas, so she's off the hook. And the rest of you, well..... *hopeful look* B, thanks for the encouraging e-mail you sent me :) Sarah, have fun in Japan. Syat, PLZ make sure you have internet in the new house!! J, I'll be gone for a few days so don't do anything health-hazarding to yourself until I come back! ^^ Right, I better go now or I'll be late for church.
Sunday, December 3, 2000, 01:25 a.m.
I just finished doing some things for ZS v2.01 again because J e-mailed and told me she can't wait to see it done ^0^ See, the best way to make me work faster is to send me these encouraging messages (or better yet, gifts!)I haven't done much today because I feel very tired. *frown* But hopefully I can get myself to finish it before I go back for holidays on the 19th. J, thanks for the e-mail.... I'm replying you ASAP. And you wish me an early happy birthday, you know!! :) Yin, I just realized you changed things a bit in your log! ^^ I also enjoy reading your logs hee hee hee... the story about your baby brother is really willdddd! ^_^x Myaaahhh... more logs, OK? I want to read them everyday!! (ok, so maybe I'm asking too much......) Syat, how's the moving? everything okay there? :) Hope you're coping well! Sarah, I'll be getting my Fruit Basket either tomorrow or the next day *huge grin* That was quite fast huh? I got a call from Maru in the middle of pinning my friend CK's sleeves in the toilet to tell me it has arrived :) I'll be getting my hands on CCS manga vol 9, 10, & 11 in less than 18 hours! Thanks Kay for buying 'em for me!!!! :))) I'll be a very happy CCS obsessed fan soon hehehehe..... Gonna write some e-mails!

huaaahhh! I just got back from the Miyuki Cosplay!! What a day!!! It was quite cool though.. I think it's the first large cosplay gathering in S'pore, and surprisingly there were more cosplayers than we thought would come. Another surprising thing is that some of the cosplayers were so young. The whole Sakura Taisen gang was so young, the youngest was probably a primary school kid. But they were cool, when I left they were doing this song complete with the movements together outside with people watching and taking pics of them. ANYWAY! I didn't wear a costume, so I was there just to help CK put hers on, took care of the stuffs, and took lots of pics. CK and I finished putting on her costume JUST in time for Cedric to arrive, as Lucifer from Angel Sanctuary. And.... he totally looked cool! He's already a total bishounen in real life, and today he wore black leather pants (I forgot what CK called them ^_^), black shirt, and..... the pair of magnificent black wings he spent several days making. The wings were absolutely amazing! I didn't see how he made the feathers, but I was there wracking havoc when he made the frame (gomen!!^^) The entire wings were made of hangers' wires and sticks and MORE wires, as for the feathers I think he used more sticks and black crepe paper. The moment he appeared, everyone started mobbing him and asked him to take pictures, either alone, with pose, or with them. Daphne, typical Marketing Head she is, remarked to me we should've charge these people $1 per Cedric picture and we would've gotten all the funds we need for the club. Minutes later as we watched more and more people swarmed Cedric, Adeline, who dressed up as Lady Une from GW (and looked great!), told me the same thing. And I bet if Jani, the Treasurer were there, she would've absolutely INSIST on it. I took dozens of Cedric pics and took one with him myself (yeah, just one :P) and as soon as they're developed and scanned, I'll show it to everyone of you ^_^ He is just way too cool. And he won 2nd prize for Best Individual Costume too ^^ I had suspected he should've won something, the way people mobbed him so much -_- The 1st prize went to Escaflowne, the mecha. And the guy had trouble walking, several people had to assist him to the stage to get his prize. Adeline says the suit wasn't exactly propotional, but it def had took a lot of effort to make it. The 3rd prize went to this girl dressing up as Ruby Moon. Quite nice, that one ^^ Afterwards, we went to eat dinner together, and Ced had to carry the wings in his hand all the way in Suntec with the whole mall gawking at him ^_^ He kept insisting people were only looking at his wings, but he didn't know I spotted several girls tailing us from behind all the while whispering to each other about him. Reminds me of my high shcool days with Indri. I swear it, if she were here with me and saw Ced in the mall like that, she'd dragged me to tail him around as well. On the whole, it was a great experience... The costumes were nice and the cosplayers were incredibly great as well. There was a red-headed Kenshin which won the AXN Prize who carried a real sword (but I think his hair is too bright and his hakama wasn't the exact colour and his socks were white). There was a Shishio as well.... The bandages were impressive but the guy's posture didn't exactly fit Shishio haha... I think there should be a Yumi hanging around him... I'd love to dress up as Yumi, it'd be great, wouldn't it, J? And I saw two Misaos but Adeline said there were three. I saw a cactus from FF8 (which was cute), several CCS' Sakuras, an Eriol, Houshin Engi people (who won Best Group), several more Angel Sanctuary people, a Misato with a Penpen doll, and lots of girls dressing up as Weiss Kreuz I couldn't tell who were suppose to be who because the hairstyle weren't there at all, and yeah on don't forget most of the Miyuki Comms were dressing up from You're Under Arrest. Oh! I met Pan, my co-moderator for Action/Adventure category for this year's RK Readers :) Nice to meet you, dear... I didn't know you were a Miyuki member. Hmm, next year I'll probably wear a costume.... Ced wants us all to go down as a group from a particular series but I want to see David, my Pub Head, as a Kero-chan or a Penpen and James, as a Kero-chan or a Suppi-chan. *evil laugh* Shawaa!

Have I ever mention how much I love KareKano soundtrack? After listening to it a few times non-stop I've grown to appreciate some of the slow piano-dominant songs. They're just sooooooo nice, especially coz I've been watching the early episodes (again!). I really have to buy the CD. //me is broke..... plus I just decided I *do* want to give people's Christmas cards this year. So definitely must buy. I had decided not to, since the task seemed quite daunting with all my friends scattered all over the world and I'm not really close to the hall people here, but I thought today, what the heck, it's Christmas! Can always give cards to people you don't even know so well. :) The thrill of Christmas for me is not gift-giving (which I rarely do) but card-giving. I like to take my time buying the cards. I usually give my not-so-close friends a card from one of those packed ones with identical designs. But for my closest friends, I like to pick them up one by one myself (and I'm VERY picky! I can spend hours to shop cards and end up only buying 5 or so.) I've been buying and giving cards since I was 8 years old. Every year I'd compile a neat list on who to give then determine how many cards I must buy that year. My list last year actually reaches over 100 >.< Then I shortened it into 50-something, I guess. Because last year was senior's year, so must give the people in the same class in 1st yr, then the 2nd yr classmates, then the 3rd yr classmates, not to mention those who I'd never been in the same class with but know nonethelessly, lowerclassmen I know, choir people, etc etc.. you get the idea ^^ I also do all the card-writing and sending to relatives abroad. My mom doesn't even do anything :P I keep my own list of addresses and names of relatives I don't even know. The task had fallen on me since I was 10 or so.... This year, my mom'll dig out her list of addresses (coz she doesn't know where I put my addresses and I wouldn't have her rummaging thru my private stuff) and bring them here so *I* can send those cards from here. Nice huh? :P Mmmhh.. since last year I've been getting more and more e-cards, which is OK, but I don't really like 'em.... I AM picky with Christmas cards. I like to get REAL cards which I can put on my shelves or hang them across my room on a string. I like to keep some of the nice ones. I like to get something I can touch, damn it! Oh well anyway, I suspect I'll get lots of e-cards as well this year from my friends who live elsewhere. No matter, it's the thought that counts! :) I thot of buying several of my friends a gift, because I've been finding lots of cool things I know exactly who to give to, but I'm very broke now... *sigh* Miyuki Cosplay tomorrow!!!!!!!! Hope it'll be fun. I ain't ditching Jap class for nuthin'. Hopefully can meet Pan as well :) *yawn* But I don't want to go to bed just yet!

Yuki pic taken from Embracing Solitude. I haven't got the chance to ask Sarah for permission to use the image she has scanned because she's away in Japan (lucky gal!) but you DO allow me to use it momentarily, don't you, Sarah? Don't you? Don't you? Don't you? ^_^ Layout title contains a reference to the meaning of Yuki's name. The bar at the end of each entry is just... a narcissistic (what's the correct spelling anyway!) sentiment on my part ^_^X As for blue and white and black... ^^ they're just the easiest colors. I'm too lazy to change them. I LOVE blue!!!!
