FM
After watching the dross that was School Rumble and the great Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, i've been playing loads of FM. Finished my first season sacked by chelsea but employed by tottenham and brought them to 5th of the league. Through some shrewd tactics, out of 8 matches with the big 4, i won 5, lost 2, drew 1. Relatively good result for Tottenham.. Finished 5th in the league... Now midway through my 2nd season, having made plenty of great purchases like Santa Cruz and Arteta, as well as more cheap bargains that i'm going to groom and sell to finance next season.

School Rumble forever? No thanks.
The anime, School Rumble, has a unique quality that no other anime i watch has. Stupid Scriptwriters.
It takes a special level of stupidity to screw up a romance/comedy anime like they have done. In just one episode, they have UFOs and Switching of Souls with cats and the "It's all just a dream" endings. what the hell? And that is just one episode!
Every other episode has some stupid "Oh i love her/him so much that i cant talk to her, and if i do, i screw it up, or she's sleeping and can't hear me" moments. Once or twice every 4 episodes is fine, but not every goddamned episode... -.-
The only subplot worth watching, that had any sort of semblance of a decent anime was the one of their Sports Day, when one class challenged another, and the romance scenes in that subplot was feasible and ROMANTIC.
Every other romance scene in this anime doesn't seem to invoke romance at all, which makes me feel like saying that this is just a comedy anime, not a romance/comedy. Even then, it would be wrong, because its not funny like a comedy should be.
Furthermore, who on this earth would make the lead female character fall for a ugly guy (ugly things in anime are rare) with no personality OR reason whatsoever? i mean, c'mon, that guy has like a 1 word vocab! ("Yeah.") They never did anything together, when they get a chance to talk, they don't. honestly... -.-
He has no spunk, no personality... -.- if guys like him attracted girls like her, i would be a babe magnet. heck, even my deceased grandfather would be a babe magnet.
Also noteworthy, STUPIDEST OPENING THEME EVER. It makes me feel embarassed just listening to it.
And to think that this anime actually has a season 2 when Fate Stay Night(10/10),RAVE (9/10), Ghost Hunt(6/10) or Ouran high school host club (8/10) doesn't. This anime deserves a groundbreaking 0.5/10
I am definitely not even gonna watch Season 2.
It's crappy to the point where i have to blog about it.. you dont see me reviewing other animes i watch, right?
An example of a decent opening theme, unlike School Rumble.
School Rumble could do with learning how to evoke emotions from the FSN writers. The above scene made me feel more in that 2min than in the whole season of school rumble, and this isnt even the best moment in fsn.

Which Fate/Stay Night Servant are you?
That's the question an online personality quiz posed me. Personally, i was hoping to get Lancer, which is my favourite servant out of the seven. (Saber, Rider, Caster, Assassin, Berserker, Archer, Lancer)
But instead, i got...
You Are Saber, an agile but powerful warrior. Saber is loyal, independent, and reserved; she appears cold, but is actually suppressing her emotions to focus on her goals. Her class is considered the "Most Outstanding", with excellent ratings in all categories.
Well, not what i expected, but good anyway. =)
Shortly after, I took another quiz (yes, i am that bored. "Which TSUBASA RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE character are you?"
This time, i was hoping to get Li, my fave anime character of all time.. but alas... i didnt even get a guy... but still, i feel the description fit me rather well...
You are Sakura.
Compassionate and caring, you try to take others under your wing; if someone seems hurt, you do your best to cheer them up.
Yet, you're lonely; not very many people understand you. This pains you deeply, but you take care not to let it show.
After that, i did another quiz again. (hey this is actually fun. =) )
Which clow card are you? For the uninitiated, Clow cards are the cards that come from the cardcaptor sakura anime, where my beloved Li came from, which sad to say, i didnt watch much of. Not having watched much of this anime, i didnt know most of the clow cards, so i just waited to see what i would get and i got........
The Cloud.
The Cloud creates thick clouds all over the sky which it can move however it pleases. It resembles the Rain.
Like Rain, it has a gentle and playful personality and is more mischievous than combative.
Rather poor explaination for this one O.o
And my final one for the day... Which Ouran High School Host Club Character Are You?
Was hoping for Tamaki Senpai Aka Drama King because he rocks |..|
You're Tamaki Suoh the half-Japanese, half-French Ouran High School second-year student and the president of the Host Club. You're a generous and easily moved or distressed by other's problems(you are worry about others). Though you tend to be amused by the silliest things and are a very care free person, though that does not make you dumb.
Stats:
Birthday: April 8th
Age: 17
Zodiac Sign: Aries
Height: 183cm (6'0") Blood Type: A
Strong subjects: English, French, World History
Favorite Foods: Commoner's ramen, commoner's candy (Baby Star)
Type: Prince
YES, finally got something i want...
Okay, i know i said that that was the last one... but this one really caught my eye... Which prison break character are you? I hope its T bag, but i know thats pretty impossible... =/
My Results:
Michael Scofield
You're very smart, and always thinking of others over yourself. You have a knack for getting out of situations easily.
I suppose he will do too... =D

Dry.
After storming through Season 18 of Simpsons, Season 8 of Seinfeld and Season 6 of Whose Line in 2 days, i am out of shows to watch...
Through recommendation, i am downloading 3 anime series.
1) School Rumble
2)Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei
3) Ouran High School Host Club
I already watched number 3 before.. but after talking about it with her, felt a compulsive need to succumb myself to the whims of Drama King Tamaki Senpai again.
What am i to do meanwhile? who knows...

Do they know it's christmas time at all?
Again, it's christmas time. the supposed season to be jolly.
Well, instead of being jolly, christmas is a grumpy old affair. I never celebrated xmas. Never gave nor received a christmas present (heck, i barely even have any birthday presents). Never went out with anyone for xmas.
Yeah, sure, this year some people have asked me out for xmas, but its fairly certain that it was all done out of pity. Please, don't pity me. If you wanna ask me out, do it because you want to, because maybe you somehow enjoy my company, maybe you feel like i'm fun ( i use maybe because i know im not.) not because you're thinking "Oh, poor JM, at home all alone with no one to hang out with.". Not that i do not appreciate the good intentions.
Let's see how i celebrated Xmas today, shall we?
1)Re-read Deception Point by Dan Brown.
2)Re-watch some Whose Line Is It Anyway?
3)Re-watch some Big Bang Theory.
4)Blog this post.
5)Mope.
Oh goodie. Fun.
To me, any school holiday > Christmas. Why is that? it's because at least during school holidays, my parents aren't home. Christmas in my household is essentially just a public holiday that my family doesn't celebrate. Maybe someday, just someday, i will have some one to go out with who really wants me to be with them, yeah? and i'm not even talking about the girl i like at this point. Just any friend, any friend.
The only 2 christmassy thing i did today was... 1) Watch a movie on my laptop by myself called Fred Claus, which i stopped halfway because it was repulsive.
2) listen to a song called "Do they know it's christmas?" By Band Aid 20, which is more of a humanitarian song than actually christmas song.
Woopie doo. such fun.

Catchy
I've been watching this brilliant sitcom called The Big Bang Theory. At first, when i saw the name, i thought it was some documentary but it turned out to be a really funny show, somewhat like and better than Friends. It's great for people who likes wit as opposed to slap stick humour and fart jokes. 10/10 from me! It has this REALLY catchy theme song too.

Holidays now... Nothing to do. i need a long game, not short games like CS. sucks to be me.

Refurnish!
Yeah, got my blog a new background. finally.
Friday was a let down. a big let down, really... but okay...
Finished watching prison break season 3 and south park season 12. Deleted season 1 of heroes without even watching it. Deleted both seasons of Dexter after only watching the first 2 episodes.
1st week of hols are over, 2 more to go...
Gonna play unreal tournament now... Like counterstrike on fast forward.

starting to...
get bored...
Now that The Office is over, been watching Prison Break Season 3, watch till middle, not bad, quite nice, but not as thrilling as first season. I have South park season 12 and heroes season 1 waiting on the side to watch, but can't really find the motivation... i can feel it.. the holidays blues are settling in... and it's only the second day...
On the up side, i managed to push my tottenham to 6th in the league from 10th with a few straight wins in fm09. hope the streak can last.. though i got knocked out from the FA cup by chelsea in a thrilling 5-4 defeat. (Kudos to darren bent for scoring 4 goals.)

Deja Vu
Now, hols have just started and i downloaded the first 3 seasons of this comedy called The Office, of which i have been a long time viewer of (just never found the dedication to sit down every week and wait at the same time). Now that i have the time and i HAVE downloaded them all, i just finished watching the last episode of Season 2 and felt a strong urge to blog. why? Because in the last episode, Jim finally tells Pam about his feelings for her. Now, in my honest opinion, everything that they said in that short clip which i will post, is basically a sumarry of the conversation that i had with my special someone on that friday night. a coincidence? maybe.... Now as im typing this, i realise the guy's name is Jim, not too far from my class nickname Jimmy, is it? Deja vu? hell yes.
In case you can't hear it too well, here's the conversation from wikiquote.
Jim: I was just, um... I'm in love with you.
Pam: What?
Jim: I'm really sorry if that's weird for you to hear, but I needed you to hear it. Probably not good timing, I know that, I just—
Pam: What are you doing? What do you expect me to say to that?
Jim: I just needed you to know. Once.
Pam: Well, I, um—I can't...
Jim: Yeah.
Pam: You have no idea—
Jim: Don't do that.
Pam: —what your friendship means to me.
Jim: Come on. I don't want to do that. I want to be more than that.
Pam: I can't. I'm really sorry - if you misinterpreted things. It's probably my fault.
Jim: Not your fault. I'm sorry I misinterpreted our friendship.

Pam: I can't. I'm really sorry - if you misinterpreted things. It's probably my fault.
Jim: Not your fault. I'm sorry I misinterpreted our friendship.

On the 6th day of sore throat, my doctor gave to me~
4 different medications and told me to rest at home for 3 days minimum. This means.. i'l miss the last day of school as well as the chance to see joyce off to the airport.. sorry joyce =(
Doctor said i have Severe Viral infection of the throat, lucky not tonsillitis or i'll need an op.
One of the meds has a drowsy effect. I came home, had lunch, took it, and went to sleep. 4 hours later, woke up, had dinner, took med again and now i feel sleepy again -.-

On the 6th day of sore throat, my mother said to me...
"Go see the doctor"
Finally... I'm coming to school for UT first and leaving straight after that.
Today, my throat took an even bigger turn for the worse (ive been coughing, bleeding, losing my voice thus far), today, my throat is swollen. till the point where when i drink a mouthful of water, i have to divide it into two... kinda scary... suddenly, the joke about throat cancer doesnt seem so funny anymore...

Spam
My sister told me to spam these Difflam Lozenges which she got from work. she said its supposed to numb the throat. But... when i eat it, it seems to numb the whole mouth EXCEPT the throat -.-
Throats not gotten any better today.. my voice sounding like some kind of weird distant thunder, those low rumble kind. Lucky tomorrow holiday. imagine if i had to go back to school, full air con day, with lots of talking. Confirm will get worse...
For her:
If i can only be your close friend, if that's all that i can get, i'll take the job with honour, i'll be the best one yet.

Shit.
I feel like shit. I sound like shit.
Since young, i was always a hyper-sensitive to the smell of cigarette smoke. so on friday, when that smoker sat next to me for that hour, infecting me with the smell of cigarette smoke, i could feel a sore throat start to develop.
Anyone who knows me or reads this blog knows that out of all illness, i HATE sore throat the most. headaches, just take panadol. fever, just go sleep. cold, just tahan. Sore throat god damns decides to REMIND you you have sore throat every friggin time you swallow. and as the production of saliva is continuous, thats alot of pain in a day. Worse, you might be thinking, just sleep it off. But hey, its not as easy as fever. you go to sleep with a sore throat (which is hard to do anyways), you wake up with an ever sorer and drier throat.
Worse is that, this sore throat im having is the irritating kind, not those kind caused by heaty food. heaty food one, the pain is minor, irritating, but minor. This sore throat is the worse kind. Why? i woke up this morning, my mouth full of saliva (my brain refuses to swallow when i have a sore throat), I went to the toilet to spit it out, and there's blood in it! FUCK!
Hurts like shit. feels like shit. IS shit. urgh.

Believe.
Sometimes, my good friends ask me, "Why, jm, why do u go out of your way to help people even if you won't get anything in return?"
The answer, while it might seem foolish to some, to me is "It is because i believe that someday, these small actions of mine have the potential to change the world."
My motto in life has been "To change the world, one individual at a time." since as long as i can remember and to me it is very much the guiding line for my life. That motto was what made my ambition to become a teacher still alive today. I want to be a teacher, because i like the feeling knowing that i can make a difference in those little children's life, hoping that someday, they can go on to become the outstanding citizens that i have failed to become.
How, some might ask, can doing some small things affect so many people?
I gave my friend, joyce, an example today. Somedays, joyce will ask me to buy a bottle of 100plus for her, and i always do that, even if it means the extra trouble of lugging my heavy ass from the class to 7-11 again. But i do it, because it is my belief that if i buy that bottle of 100plus for her, she will start her day slightly happier and less troubled. This will then permeate through her to people around her in class, she might think "hey, since im in a good mood, let's help so-and-so do so-and-so" which might then proceed on to be a chain effect and make alot of people happier.
Yes, sometimes, i do get tired of giving and would like to receive once in a while, but at the end of the day, i still believe that i am doing the right thing.
Joyce, like me, has a motto in life, which is somewhat opposite to mine.
"If you are everything to everybody, You ended up being nothing to yourself"
That is what i feel sometimes when im sick of giving...
But then, i remember that for me, the act of giving, or caring for people IS being something to myself...
This happens to me even in gaming. I used to play a game called Fiesta Online. and in that game, i was a warrior, a kind of kill-bash character. One day, as i was fighting by myself, this high-level cleric came by and blessed me, giving me 4 times more health for an hour. It was a simple act which required less than a few seconds. But for me, i was so inspired by that act of random kindness that i deleted my warrior and created a cleric as well. I trained hard for a full month (the longest i spent on any MMORPG) before finally achieving the level required to cast that very same blessing. All around me, my friends were training hard and they out-leveled me, simply because of the fact that once i had that spell, training was no longer important to me. I would wander around noob areas, blessing random noobs. I might not get thanked 100% of the time, but deep down, i still feel glad i do it, because i know, i made a difference.
I know that i, as one mere teenager, cannot do enough to change the world in a lifetime, maybe even ten. But for me, that is no reason to be discouraged. I can still try my best.

White.
Laughter is the sound a person makes when they are happy. or at least, that is what most people think...
There is also a, what i call, the self-defense laugh. When one is hurt inside or just not in the mood to actually laugh, they will laugh a forced laugh in order to prevent others from knowing how they really truly feel... Had to do this alot since friday...
its 7:42am now. Joyhan should be here pretty soon... most likely will be changing teams today judging by faci's class comments for last week...
