Chasing After Rainbows

The following Monday, 16 May, came. I went to check out my other house I was living in as a guy along the way. The house now appears to be occupied by someone else for a long time, seeing that the family name plate at the gate looks old and is not of anyone I know. I knew this kind of thing would happen as, my history in this dimension between the time I was born and now is completely different from what I have experienced. In class, I had somehow became the de facto class representative. When the first teacher of the day comes in, I had to give the signal to stand, bow, and then sit back down. How did I become one anyway? Well, I might probably know the answer to that: I had scored one of the highest in the entire school and most of the guys in class appear to have a smile on their faces and then began drifting into their own world when they see me. I headed to my seat, giggling, when I saw their faces. When Nagisa walked into the classroom, she appeared to have a big smile on he

I have been more and more recently wanting to live away from my family lately as our differences increases to the point that I would start to hate the decisions they make and do things my way without caring about what they would think about it. With me all alone at home most of the time and very little interaction with them since I started primary school anyway, whether they are even around won't make a difference to me. When I ask a question on something, they would either be clueless, say it in a negative/one-sided view, or would drag in irreverent/biased traditional/religious/racial things in. Some of the main reasons why I am not moving out yet is that I have very little time to find the time to work, and I am therefore heavily rely on my parents for things like traveling, education, food, mobile phone, everything except what I want. Well, they do give me some money mainly for the above, but the amount I get in a month is very miserable: an amount I would earn if I were to wo

When watching anime, I can't help but notice that there are several familiar-sounding voices. So I took several screenshots of the credits of this year's anime and put them together in the following image and highlighted names that appear more than once: (Note: Various shades of green were used) Sorry for the terrible quality. I wanted to use a larger one in PNG instead of the current JPG, but the file size would be too big for both Imageshack and Photobucket. Come to think of it, besides what was mentioned here , characters that may appear only for a brief moment in the entire series actually look a lot better than the main/supporting characters for some reason. Sometimes, when there is an event in the school that is open to the public or at a public place like a shopping district, the uniform the students from other schools looks better than that of the main character's for some reason. Hmm... After watching an episode or two of the latest Autumn 2008 anime , I h

If you have been paying close attention to one of my blogs , or the "My Drawings"/"自作絵" section of my main and anime blogs, you would notice that for this week I had done a record of 4 vectors. on top of that 3 of them are made the day after one another. Maybe it was out of boredom: I had played the same games a lot of times that I got bored of it, watching anime lacks the interaction element ( visual novel does, but very minimal). I have already done a total of 25 vectors, 4 of which are rejected, and there are another 21 on the waiting list, though I may not use those at all and the ones I use may not even be on the waiting list at all. There may be more for those before July 2008, but I can't seem to locate the originals. Anyways, here they are: (click to enlarge) Note: If you were to look at the 2nd from the right at a distance, it would look like a photo.

As I walked down the street with my bike on my way home, I felt as though someone with an evil intention in mind to harm me was closely following from behind. I continued walking on, pretending as though I was not aware of it. I don't know how to get rid the idiots with as little harm to me as possible, but somehow, I don't even feel scared about it even though my body says otherwise. I reached the dark and quiet part of the route: the lights were dim and the nearest house is some distance away. As expected, two men grabbed a hold of me from behind: one was holding me tightly with one hand covering my mouth, with another holding a kitchen knife. He was also looking for something to rob me of and touched parts my body I forgotten I had that made me feel uncomfortable and scared (though unusually pleasing). Even though I knew that it would be useless, my natural reaction would be to struggle and scream for help. Although I saw this coming, I didn't know how to counter it. I

Apart from new anime , the start of autumn around this time would mean that the end of the year is just about 3 months away. The weather is also colder, but not as cold as winter. Apart from rainy days, the summer weather is almost unfavorable, which makes autumn (and spring) the best time of the year to wear comfortable clothing without freezing or sweating. Looking back, time seemed to have passed by quite fast. It seems that not too long ago, I graduated from primary school (小学校) and now that my teenage years are quickly coming to an end. It's like not long ago, I was a child who knew little about anything and would believe in anything. Now I have suddenly grown big and know a lot more. When looking back at old photos of myself and compare to those taken recently or looking in the mirror, I would say that I would look different now, but I would sometimes ask myself if the person I'm seeing in the mirror really is me as, as I said earlier, time seemed to have flew by in a fla

After a walk down the hill and through the streets, I arrived at the train station and waited patiently for the train to arrive. The platform appears to be as crowded as usual. The people I always see at their usual time and place, but don't really know them, are still there but did not notice the obvious change to me. Did they think that I'm someone else, or always see as what I am now? On board the train, I try to avoid potential gropers and men holding their cameras or mobile phones suspiciously. Why must I do this extra step now? At least I know what men could do on board trains as I have seen photos they had uploaded online. Unlike mornings, the train isn't filled with working adults, but is still filled with some students from other schools that are not having club activities today. I sat at what appears to be a safe safe spot to sit at and started to think what would happen at work now that I'm like this. I took out the work pass that I found this morning: it
