1:36 pm	Back from Reservist. Well technically I was back officially on the 18th itself. Clearing leave yesterday and today was the correct choice. I spent a good part of yesterday unpacking and washing the stinky stuff. For the ICT itself, well, it was actually quite ok. Sure we had live firing and Excercises, but surprisingly things went on pretty smoothly, especially the live firing where we split into two separate sessions for our two platoons and breezed through them without much delay. The outfield excercise's Old Camp Compound was quite bearable too (we even had power and water) and the excercise itself isn't too tough. I guess it could be due to the fact that I was transferred to a different platoon from the last few highkeys and the previous one was definately more shiong. On the personal side, I spent my birthday in camp. Sucks. On my birthday, we have our IPPT. Sucks more. On the IPPT itself, I buang during my Shuttle Run and sprained my ankle. Sucks even more. And MO only gave me Light Duty for 3 days, which meant that I still have to attend most of the shit, and just nice Live Firing is on Friday, the day when the Att B ends. On the flip side, the second IPPT on the last day got cancelled due to a long period of Cat1 lol. Ok, let me just try to adjust back to civilian life before I begin my work next week.

1:50 am	Be gone for reservist in about 3 hours. Feh, spending my birthday in camp. Sounds good enough eh. Well, at least I've finished Commu. It was a good play. I'm satisfied. Ending was also pretty clearcut so I don't have to mull over it like I did with Memoria. The soundtrack is pretty much to my liking with moeru BGM and songs. I hope the OST and also the fan book comes out soon. Current Mood: exhausted Current Music: コミュ -黒い竜と優しい王国 - OP 内なる雨 (Comment on this)

I got my leave cancelled, I come back work on the earliest shift, our system goes down and all my cases are piling up and I have to log manual cases, later I have to input all the shit back into the system when it's up. Great man. Just great. Screw all of you bastards who send emails. Current Mood: angry (Comment on this)

1:16 pm	Again, three months consolidation. Think I better start updating before the things really overflow into 4 months interval basis. ( August ) ( September ) ( October ) Ok, last week was another round of BCP (Business Contigency Plan) which I hated so much since the first time. This time we have 4 days of it where we split our team into two places in preparation for H1N1 or some shit. We have no access to our problem logging system on the second site and thus have to log Manual Case Logs, which in turn has to be transferred to our colleagues in the main site where they have to input the logs into the system. Fucking Double Redundant work. After two days of main site (730am to 7pm) and two days of second site, plus my Saturday duty, I'm ready to kill someone. I don't feel like I have any weekends for that week. That's why I need to enjoy this weekend. Signal Heart seems to be a little lackluster compared to Memoria, so I'm just trying to complete it and go on to the next game. Next week is the release for COMMU - Kuroi Ryu to Yasashii Oukoku, which should be pretty good. (2 Comments |Comment on this)

12:38 am	メモリア　プレイ終了。 I shall type in English this time. I pretty much like the character design and the plot isn't too shabby either. The opening song is one which I had looped for the past month or so. Now, I'm not really capable of processing time travel plots, whats more Memoria also touched on pararell universes. After finishing the True End, I tried to create a flowchart of the events of the plot. Hmm.... there's still a few points which I'm not sure off, like which future did Yukie actually came from that allowed her to pen all the Gate notes, or what exactly happened in Yuuki's finale that triggered the true end "Memoria". Hopefully a fanbook gets published that explains all these. Character-wise, I like all of the heroines, no haters here. But I loved Haruna the most for her forlorn expression as she sees the main character who lost his memories and Kanami for her earnest personality and the ability to fall in love with the main character once more after she loses her memories again and again. Well, what's up next.... I have the World Love Organization fandisk, or I can start on one of the many new games released.

10:43 am	Sunday cats again. Why Sundays? Supposedly this cat (most probably someone elses, since it has a collar) was found in the lift and doesn't want to come out. ( pic ) Quick post. (Comment on this)

11:26 pm	Moonlight Cradle　も終わりました！ これで夜明け前より瑠璃色なの物語が完全に終わりました。 いや、２００５に本編が発売から今に辿り着くのは四年がかかりました。長い旅だったね、“ようやくお終いが来る！”って感じ。ストーリー的には文句はない。とっても満足した。特にフィーナルートの主人公はとっても頑張ってた。恋人の為にそんなに頑張れるのはたいした事だと思う、主人公は本当に強いな。私だったら全然駄目だったかも。尊敬しますよ。 ヒロインたちからのメッセージを読むと本当に寂しくになった。なんかこう、“あ．．．もうないんだ．．．”な感じ。物語が終わって、ついにヒロインたちとお別れの時が来る。胸の奥になんか切ない感じがする。私、情に移りすぎたのだろな。 さよならフィーナたち。お別れが悲しいけど、貴女たちの事を胸に置いて、忘れないように。 貴女たちと過ごした日々は本当に楽しかった。ありがとう。 みんな大好きです！ (Comment on this)
10:13 pm	77 ～And, two stars meet again～ クリアしました Whirlpool作品の世界観がどんどんひろがて、お互いの関係を結んでしまう。面白くなっていくね、次の作品を楽しみにするよ。 でもね．．．改変者って、プレイヤーキャラクターの事じゃないのか？まさか世界観の正式の名称があるとは。かっこいいかも、でもいくらなんでも“インノベイター”とはね．．． レビューはまた今度。 Current Music: 77～And, two stars meet again～ OP- STAR LEGEND (Comment on this)

8:59 pm	さあ、今夜のおとぎ話をはじめよう。 実はついさっき“コミュ――　黒い竜と優しい王国”の体験版を済みました。600MBのファイルで、二日をかかりました。最近の体験版、そんなに長い？ま、別に嫌いじゃないんですけどね。 るいトモは好き。ですから同じブランドの暁WORKSからの作品を気になった（作画もさえき北都先生）。ジャンルは意味分りづらいの“新美少女伝奇エンタメADV”。ま、るいトモの時もそうだった。 ジャンルなどほって置いて、内容自体はなかなか面白かったと思う。バトル見たいのですが、まだまだ知られていない部分が沢山あるな感じ。キャラクターたちも十分魅力的なもの。特に気に入ったのは紅緒。その純情さはたまらないくらい萌えるね。あと、カゴメかな？かっこいすぎて、ちょっと怖い。主人公の気持ち、少し分かる気がする。 アバターのデザインもかっこよかったけど、ちょっとバラエティが足りないと思う？バトルシーンは中の上な感じ。 総体感はなんかFate/Stay Nightとペルソナの混ぜ物。でもいいよね、これ。私結構気に入った。10月22日楽しみにするね。 そして、ホームページhttp://www.akatsukiworks.com/product/com/top.html　（実は暁WORKS全体）は海外IPをブロックしているらしい。気に入った方々は日本Proxy（たとえばhttp://www.ijapan.org/red/）を通じて試してみよう。 (Comment on this)

9:34 am	... One episode this morning. While waiting for bus, saw one Indian down there cough and spit onto the bus stop floor. He openly cough and blow his nose and scare a girl in front away. I think I gave him a dirty look because he then went past me and showed middle finger to me as he walked away lol Got guts you _|_ already don't walk away lah. Although if he really did stay I think confirm fight one, in which case I'll run away first =P Current Mood: amused (2 Comments |Comment on this)

8:26 pm	Quarterly thing.... Damn, it's really getting quarterly. Not to mention that my old camera spoilt and I took the pics using my very pitiful Nokia N73 mobilephone camera. After I got my new HV24HD, I didn't want to retake all the pics since they're all over the place. So yah, I'm lazy. Coincidentally, "So yah..." is a favourite phrase among the users who call in. Dunno is it that they feel that this makes them sound like fucking angmors or a cut above other more locally flavoured accent, but it definately makes them sound like a fool. "So after my lotus notes hanged and I tried to restart it, I wasn't able to do so, so yah." Right, "SO YAH WHAT?". Given the context, I would have correctly guessed that you have just describe the problem (not withstanding the fact that you failed to provide any details on the issue) and now is urging me to do my Helpdesk Magic. Fair enough, but it simply irritates the hell out of me when I hear "So Yah.". Sounds like you're just pushing the problem to me and expect me to piece together the situation based on the inadequate information you've just provided like it's our god-given responsibility. You're trying to drive home the fact that we Helpdesk are supposed to be "professional" and tolerate your high and nigh attitude problems while you randomly shoot us for just asking you if you know what is a desktop. Cool. I don't deny the fact that it's our job to act kind and understanding and soothe your temper just so you wouldn't feel too stupid, but that doesn't mean that you should bring your fucked-up attitude problems to us just because you can. Remember, while we may sound courteous to you, you'll never know if we're cursing and raping your dignity behind that mute button. Oh enough ranting. Just on to the (very blurry) pics. ( May ) ( June ) ( Extra purchase in between ) ( July ) Ok, this week my stuff haven come out of the warehouse according to Auntie. I can start taking pics using the new cam when I get the stuff. Well, not that it really matter, since I still take pics while my stuff are still in their boxes anyway. lol On a side note, finishing 天神乱漫 soon with my last heroine Aoi's path already halfway done. Hope to start -SEVENS- ～And, two stars meet again～ soon. This one has Sakakibara Yui back in one of the main character's role after a period of absence, or at least I can't seemed to recall which was the last main role she did before SEVENS. Well, she did voice a sub (and male) character in 天神乱漫, so yah. Hmm, I think I'm starting to understand why the users like using this phrase so much.

7:44 pm	Got a new camera... ...because my old Minolta(yes, before the Konica-Minolta merger) Dimage X20 broke down after 4 years. It's a Samsung HV24HD. Recommended by my old man's cousin's shop and since I'm not really particular on the specs and he did quote us an ok price, I took it. Since I Phailed my driving test, I decided to loosen up by testing out the HD video capability of the camera on Xiaohua: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GG_U0Vt0JFs Well, it's ok. And the camera got some nifty manual mode for the shutter speed and aperture size shit which I'm still playing with, but I need a tripod to take any decent non-flash photos Current Mood: lazy (1 Comment |Comment on this)

12:47 pm	One bloody user said I sounded unfriendly and asked a lot of sarcastic questions. All because I asked her if she knows what is the Desktop when she cannot find a folder on the desktop. I guess morons have their ego too. But I guess it's bad choice of words on my part as well ("oh sorry, I guess I sounded like I'm rubbing your ignorance in"), although the other users seemed to be fine when I used that line. Feh. *update* Team lead came over and told me that she spoke to the bitch. Bitch comment was that I made her feel like an idiot with my talking. I really can't help but LOL at this. So like what? Boo hoo, talking to the helpdesk made me feel stupid... T.T Oh poor baby, did the nasty helpdesk make fun of you again? Let me cuddle you in my arms and make you feel better you oversensitive emo prick. *facepalm.jpg* But thinking outside of the box, this kuku IS better than the rest. At least she is enlightened to the fact that she is retarded while the rest are still pretty oblivious to it all. Well heck, an enlightened moron is still.... a moron.

5:26 pm	Someone seemed to be laughing at me... for it is Father's Day today, AND my mother's birthday. So? Just celebrate them together people say. Not so for my case. I thought hard, and the most plausible idea I have is to split the day into two parts. One for each of them. Then my old man can't be reached for some reason (god knows if he's quarantined after his recent trip to China) and mother doesn't want to go out for dinner due to the Father's day crowd and decides to cook. Well, it still turned out well didn't it. No major troubles or anything. *roll eyes* Current Mood: apathetic (Comment on this)

At night while H'ing, I heard some loud meowing coming from outside. Thinking that the lost cat from the morning has came back, I went out of our house.

5:18 pm	Monthly thing for 3 months again .... which I really can't call it a monthly thing anymore. More like quarterly. Oh well, technicalties. ( February ) ( March ) ( April ) Ok, there you have it. I guess I shall wait for a few months before posting up again. Moonlight Cradle again. Still got Feena afterstory to complete. This had better be good. On the other hand, I'm addicted to Midori's theme Skip Heart! and its arrange version. As its namesake, the overall tempo is very upbeat and very umm.. skippy. You can feel your heart laughing and dancing to the beat. Perfect music for me who have to face idiots every work day. Till then.

7:59 pm	アンバークォーツ　プレイ後感想 ようやく終わりました。仕事の後で家に帰ったら、ご飯をもぐもぐ食べ終わらせてアンバークォーツとLike A Butlerを寝る前までにやるその日々はなんだか遠い昔の記憶と思うのやら（笑） 結構良い作品と思います。正直ゲームの紹介を読むと、なんか感情的な学園ものかと思い込んだ（ま、感情的は間違いがないけど）。コットンソフトやるな．．．完全に普通ではない要素を隠れてたな！ま、ストーリーは面白いからいい。 ストーリーといえば、自分は良く書かれたと思う。すべてをプレイヤーに教えず、プレイヤーをゲームの各ルートをやって、途中ちょうどいい所でそれぞれを明かす。ストーリーには、仲間の絆とお互いの信頼を重点とするように見える。それは悪くないと思う、むしろそれは好みかも知りません。七年前の幼馴染だぞ？私はそんなものを持つ方が羨ましいぞ。女の子のならなおさら．．． こほん、本題に戻る。キャラ的、一番気に入ったのはもちろんなゆたちゃんだね。当たり前だろ、こんな自分に尽くしてくれる子がいるなんて。声優が松田理沙のもプラス点。他のヒロインも好きですが、一番のはなゆた！ ランキングをすれば．．． １）なゆた。本当に可愛がりたいな。そして最後の自己犠牲的なことは．．．かっこいいかも。 ２）弥夜子。一番真面目なキャラだが、時に妙な所が抜けるというのもチャームポイント。責任感が強いゆえ、七年前がしたことを罪と意識するのがミコ姉のいい所だと思う。 ３）智。良く頑張ってきたトモは愛らしい。そんなに皆の為に頑張ってたから、思わず背を叩きたい、彼女に“ありがとう”を。 ４）サリナ。嫌いではないけど、他のヒロインに比べば彼女のいい所を見せるチャンスが少ない。所詮お父さんとのやり合いです。 α） キョウと恒河／ジン。野郎どもが、かっこいいところをいっぱい見せてしまいましたから、結構気に入ったかも。特にキョウがなぜ七年前より変化が多いのか、ストーリー内の一つの謎がなゆたルートでようやく知られました。 珠乃／玉藻の前。違う生き物でも、人間に憧れ、人間に恋して、それは多くの物語によくある筋です。彼女が恋する人の為に犠牲できるのは尊敬すべきだと思う。 ま、このゲームは、具体的に、なゆた以外のルートは正しく“Extra Episode”です。すべてはなゆたルートへの準備に過ぎない。七年前は何があったのか、全部なゆたルートで打ち明ける。最後に主人公となゆたはあんなようになったのはココロが少し痛むのだが、きっと仲間たちの言うよう、何とかなるさ。めでたし、めでたし。 伝奇と学園ものが混ぜた作品が好きの方々に、このゲームをお勧めします。 (Comment on this)
