While I'm updating my version of Worpress into the rocking 2.5 release, let me introduce you to something I just found out now.
There's this virtual band called Mistula. And as far as virtual bands goes, they're the only one in the Philippines (all according to Wikipedia). Some of you might already know them, but since as I had told you guys that I don't watch TV, I just found out about them. Being a virtual band as they are, they're a bunch of BJDs that formed a band, and of course, in a J-rockish kind of way. I got introduced to this band just now by Kanji, my MySpace mate. He actually commented on a certain image of me, mentioning this band. At first, I didn't get what it meant. I honestly thought it was some kind of an unknown expression to me, but when I asked him, he told me it's actually a band that he thought I was mimicking. Well, I can't say anything about it really, since he doesn't know I wear those type of clothing in a casual basis. And I don't even need to tell him since it's not as important as breathing. Whatever.
Anyway, I haven't actually listened to their music yet (but I'm getting there), but as far as my artistic nonsense goes, I love their concept. Oh, and have I mentioned that I love their website too. You might wanna take a look at it, but I sorta love it, although it's pretty heavy because it's flash-made and all, it's pretty damn interesting. And it got me hooked and surfing it and wasted 10 minutes procrastinating (that's what I'm good at, anyway). ;)
I just dropped by to say that, so I'm off because I'm busy with work.
-edit-
I LOVE THE NEW WORDPRESS! (Yes, in full caps, and yelling!)
I want to run away and set sail
Where the waves would drift me to an unknown land.
Where the waves kisses the shore,
Where the sky embraces the clouds.
A place where I can breathe the air freely
Without suffocating from the cities pollution.
A place where I can drink water peacefully
Without the need for me to cough it out.
A place where I can run as much as I want
Without my legs being bound to the ground.
A place where I can be what I wanted to be,
Naked and unmasked.
I want to run away and set sail
Where the waves would take me to a place unknown.
There I would write my own book
And I would start it from chapter one.

Thank you Flamegod for the title.

It's the 23rd year since my birth as a not-so-quite human. As a celebration of my rebirth, I want a virgin sacrifice! *lol* For additional request, please chain him into a crucifix wearing ancient Greek clothes. *lmao*
Anyway, I would like to take this chance to thank the lovely people who greeted me in advance - my Lord, NecroKael and the beautiful creatures from The Sanctuary, my ever-so-cool workmates (you know who you are), Ran-ni-sama, Vera-onee-sama, Kuya Archie (who's V-cut I always forget), Kuya Myke, Gean (who even especially dropped by), James (who never fail to greet me each year), Scarlet Tears (OMG! Such an honor! ♥), Gabby (my old HS friend), Smoker23, Harumi, Abdee, Tony G and Jeromee (who will give me a Ducan Doll someday :P)!
Thank you so much! ♥
Btw, my birthday wish would be as usual - I want to be taller and fatter. X-P

It's Holy Friday and just like the past years, Jesus Christ was supposed to die today and resurrect 2 days after. Sometimes it makes me wonder if he ever gets tired being beaten up to the point that he could not walk anymore, where his blood are all over as he seemed like crawling on to the floor, and after being treated mercilessly, he'll still be crucified each and every single year like this, by the people. I know it's only some sort of a remembrance thing or whatever you call it, but isn't it just cruel? If he would live like in the ancient Greek myths, this is like he's being thrown down to Tartarus to suffer eternally. It's just like another Prometheus who was chained in Mount Caucasus where his liver is being eaten by a vulture with each passing day as it regenerates only to be eaten again.
Anyway, did you know that here in Pampanga, people are very religious? The first time I came here, it felt like I'm some demon from hell with all the staring and people asking me, "Are you a Satanist?" Then, when I was enrolled in a Catholic university, it's where I learned of all the things religious people do such as prayers, mass, rosary and stuffs. They preserve religious traditions that you'll rarely see these days too, like religious parades. And since holy week is a religious thing, during holy week, you'll see tons of people here walking down the side of the roads beating themselves up to the point of them bathing in their own blood. Of course, taking aside the fact that I love the bloody scene of it, what I love most is that at around 5 pm or so of holy Friday (which is today), all of the people go to this certain place (usually a vacant lot) where it's decorated with leaves and everything just to have themselves crucified. But the thing is, I wasn't able to see them this year. T^T It's because its too hot to leave the house. I don't want to be burned alive just for the sake of watching someone being crucified. It's just too much and the person being crucified is not so important anyway.
If it were Yoshiki being chained all over or Gackt and Miyavi doing S+M, I'm definitely watching despite it being hot and all. I'll bring tons of tissue paper too for my nose bleeds. XD
Last Friday night, I just finished watching 太王四神記 (Tae Wang Sa Shin Gi), which roughly translates to "The First King's Four God Seals" (as far as I remember my Chinese correctly). It's English title is The Legend. It's a Korean TV series that was aired sometime in September last year, I think? I also saw this one on a Chinese channel before too and my dad was watching it and he even said it's good. Anyway, I've been watching it for two weeks after I saw the DVD at home three weeks ago and it ignited my interest. I'm a sucker for these type of mythical stories that involves wars and such with the martial arts and everything, so I took the bait of watching it. And my verdict? It's just plain crap. Taking out the fact of the beautiful graphics, and that Lee Ji Ah in that series is so freaking cute that makes me want to hug her, and of course, Lee Philip is extra hottie for that long hair and that silent yet I-rock-at-fighting type attitude (especially on horseback) that would make you drool over and want to strip him naked and tie him up a pole or something, but in general, taking note of the storyline and all, it's just as plain as a movie who doesn't have much of a plot. when it came to a few episodes before ending, the plot was rising and I went like, "Here it is, here it is! the plot that I've been waiting!" and after that, I fell down the bed where I was sitting. It's as if they drag out the plot from the storyline to portray a feeling of pity to the character, but it was in futile attempt and it seemed pathetic. I've seen tons of mythical war stories and among them this is the crappiest by far. I even prefer HanaKimi (oh, I love that manga, especially Umeda Hokuto) the Taiwan version more, though it's also crappy and OA at some point, over this series. And the ending is so freaking plain that being reminded of it, just makes me wanna cry in despair that I even spent my precious freaking sleepless hours just to watch it! That said, I'm regretfully screaming, give me back my time, damn it!
