   300 Hits!

Thank you friends for visiting my page. I enjoy your comments and private messages (which are filling my inbox--lol). Arigatou for 300 hits! The banner was made by Wija-chan. Thanks Wija! I love it. Uh, to answer you question Steph, I've seen at least 1 episode of 46+ animes in my life ^_^. That's alright, right? I do want to beat Wija at this! Raina, MSN chatting is so much fun! ^_^ I had the most fun yesterday, talking to ASH (!!!she's never online, or at the same time as I am) and Wija-chan after having chatted with you and now I'm chatting with Domkippy. Ah... I have other stuff to say but I'll postpone it. And the FMA essay draft? Well, I may have done poorly at it. It was kind of annoying (plus blame MSN). Well, I won't be posting much today because I don't really feel like boring you all so ja ne pals! A question? Okay. 1- Are you tired of my Ion theme? (What? I couldn't think of anything...lol)

   Lija (or shall I say Wija)-chan's Otaku account

Hi friends! This is going to be a very short post 'cuz I don't feel like typing much right now. Yes, I hear some relieved sighs in the audience. Lol. Well, just to let you know, Lija-chan's new account is up and running. Her user name is Wija-chan. Do visit and see her uploaded art. Arigatou. Today Lija-chan and I were writing all the anime we've ever seen and Lija's got 80+! She knows a TON of anime. We're also counting anime which we saw only one episode of *Sticks tongue out in a playful manner*. Oh and one more thing. About the Flamel symbol on the FMA necklace I got that had the cross? Well, some of you said it shouldn't have to do anything with religion/spirituality. It actually does. Religion first, anime later. And it's like that in my religion so...Anyhow, Lija-chan wanted it so badly so I sold it to her. ^_^ Ja ne! ~Lady Fortuna Jewels~

   Fun Night Out, Anime, more on Lija-chan, & Friendship Day

*Squee* Hi buddies! Well...guess what happened last night? You see, where I live, Thursday & Friday are the weekends. So on Wednesday night, I called Lija-chan and we talked a while. She never went to an anime store in this city and didn’t know there were a few. So my brother's friends were supposed to come over and they were going to go to a new anime store that night. So I was thinking about how cool it would be if Lija-chan and I went too. I don't usually go out, heh, and this was like an event I never experienced but my parents decided to let me do it anyhow! I was soo excited/happy!! So we went to 2 anime stores and stayed there like 2 hours just looking and sighing and walking around like three weird girls (my sister came along too) saying, 'Ah--look! Oooh! AAH!'. Posters, wall scrolls, and so much more! It's not half as cool as anime stores in other countries but it was the best we could've gotten. And guess what we bought!!? I have an FMA necklace with this...er...I-don't-know-what-it's-called sign thing on it and my sister got one with the dragon watch symbol...and Lija bought a YYHakusho wallscroll, a Naruto golden key holder-look-alike with little dangling coins with Naruto, Sasuke (whom she dislikes and calls 'Saucegay'), Kakashi, and Garaa faces on them and a Kyo from Samurai Deeper Kyo stuffed toy. She's planning to buy a lot of anime, which is gonna cost her much. We’re a part of an anime trade circle—lol. I lend her anime, she lends me anime, my brother lends his friends our anime and her anime and we lend their anime to her and so on and so forth…^_^ Soon I’ll see Samurai Champloo and much more!! Strange how Lija-chan and I get along so well. She is pretty friendly. I have an English essay in which we have to utilize our interpretive skills and blah blah so the teacher said we had to pick a topic and one was “an episode of a sitcom”. So I asked if I can do an “episode of an anime”. She told me she needed to see the anime for my credibility and stuff so I told her I’d bring it. And guess what I’d doing!? A dramatic episode of FMA, episode 25! I’ll probably choose to speak of Roy Mustang. *Sniff* Maes… Oh *makes an upset face* I’m upset! I saw that the FMA necklace I got last night has a cross on it. The thing is, I’m not supposed to wear crosses and items of religious importance unless they’re of my faith. And the necklace was so COOL! So I’m upset. I’m gonna have to return it. Oh well. I’ll just get another necklace, maybe Bleach or Kingdom Hearts. Spirituality always comes first, ne? Oh, and Lija-chan does have an Otaku account. She just hasn’t updated a long time so she’s going to make a new one. I’ll let you know when she does. I visited the orthodontist (got red-colored chain) today and something happened just before that. It could have happened when I visited Reno_The_Turk’s page and heard that ‘Listen to your Heart’ song. Strange…but I felt like I woke up. I felt as if I was in a haze lately. I just remembered how words can never describe the way someone feels. Saying amazing a million times doesn’t explain the feeling you feel, now does it? Anyhow, I was just remembering some old times… You know, there’s this other thing. Why is it that so many people I meet remind me of ASH Hikari? Lija’s voice reminds me of her. I thought ASH called me and was surprised. ASH, you’re like beside me in different bodies or something? Hmm… Is today National Friendhip Day? I'm not sure but just so you know, I appreciate having you all as friends! *Hugs* Well, I think my “enthusiasm” kind of died off today, sadly. I’m back to Mrs. Glum, but perhaps just until Saturday (when the weekday starts and I see Lija-chan). Homework and stuff still left to do…-_- Well, ja ne buddies! Thanks for reading all this!

   Star struck & lovin' school *__*

HIII! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! Now that I got that squeal out of me... *Hears bells rigning* 'Laa laa!!!!!!' I HAVE ANIME FANS IN THE SCHOOL!!!!!! ^_^_^_^_^_^_^ I am in AWE! Why? Because one of the BEST and most SUPERB anime artists is in my school!!!!! Oh wow...you should see me walk around all weird. You see, she's from the Philippines and learnt how to speak a bit of Japanese and write it too, as well as some Korean from her Korean friend (who's also in my school). I'm gonna learn Korean too! Lija-chan is sooo coool!!! I'm so gonna get her autograph and perhaps she'll join the Otaku! She already has an account in Deviant Art, under the name Lija-chan. I'm so gonna interview her!! And learn from her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *Starstruck* How much fun we should have together... Oh, and I got DSL. Didn't see any new anime yet. Will soon see DN Angel eppy 2. Question: Do you have a special talent? My answer: Lija does...I don't. Waaah! *~* But I'm sooooo glad she has her talent. You should see her Sakura pictures...and her picture with Orichi (her fave Naruto character, lol!). Oh and Hikari-chan & Talhoino (and other Sasuke-lovers) she dislikes Sasuke and labelled him as annoying! But she supports Sasusaku and Saisaku. But later...I'll fill you all in with the interview details. Oh, and I saw Shippuuden eppy 1's beginning and Sasuke--oh! ASH you'd drool so hard! Even I admit he was...something!! =^^= I have other stuff to say but I'll do it another day. Ja ne! (They all rhyme, hehe). ~Lady Fortuna Jewels~

   Greetings & 200 hits!!

Greetings dear buddies ^_^!!! Well, well…I haven’t posted in a while. But I was still around! Hope you didn’t all worry too much *looks at Raina and pats her head* (lol). I really did hate turning my site "off". Anyhow... ~ WARNING: Get ready for babble! ~ Look at my changed intro/profile. I am now royalty—Lady Fortuna Jewels *Big conceited smile* My soon-to-come layout shall suit it all. Thank you all for helping my reach 200 hits by visiting my lackluster of a page. I made the banner myself this time *sticks chest out to boast about it*. What do you think? It’s a start. Used Imageready for both the background and banner as Photoshop still needs to be…installed properly. I got bored of the look I had. I’m still having a few problems but thanks Sam for help you’ve offered on that. Why’d I go for Ion? I would’ve picked another theme (like my SWEETHEART INU! *Big fan attack*) but more people must learn about Ion so…Ion it is again; heh. However, I’ve still not settled with anything so a new layout and look coming up soon *Big smile* (INU!!!?). Noticed the whole “INU!!” thing going on inside me?? ElvesAteMyRamen’s Inuyasha-related fanart (she’s like a pro!) rekindled my INULOVE. Now I have to satisfy that…*thinks of blood* Just kidding! I’ll see what I can do about that. I really tried to cut down on the excitement as it leads to blabber…but I quit! Too hard to do! I currently have a week off school. So glad. I love days without school (not that I do anything). I’ve been doing midterms and I had to do the Calculus one (duh). I had a nice tutor (my dad) who helped me as best he could and I was able to actually write and understand some things. I don’t know what my mark will be but things definitely turned around a bit. I actually got 5/5 on a surprise quiz *Big smile* and I handed in a math project (I know—who ever heard of a math project?) and a worksheet. That’s actually enough from me, the teacher said, even though I didn’t hand in any homework. The exam was terrible though. I always blank out in math. I stink *looks at her feet*. What’s new? Hmm…a lot! But I can’t possibly mention everything as too much blabber may not be pleasant (like I am not doing it already). Anyhow, main stuff! 1- I’m getting high-speed internet cable! Finally. Next best thing to a laptop. Anime…!! 2- I’m going to live with my uncle in Vancouver in…4 months! Problems? I think I’ve gotten a bit selfish, pretty hateful towards any sort of work or chore…I mean, how am I gonna live in the real world? Soon I’m off to Canada and I’ll leave my parents *sniff*. I don’t know how I’ll survive in this cruel world. I worry…My mood and personal issues do affect the way I run things (I never have a routine due to my lack of steadfastness). Add that to my lack of a goal and I’m sure it’ll all affect me negatively, in the workplace and socially. What should I do? I’m not in a terrible mood now (‘cuz Mom’s happy with me ^_^) or have been all day (mostly) but I do feel bad almost every morning. I hate mornings. I never wake up with a good attitude. I just know I have another day of un-productivity waiting. I mean, I sleep at 3 am or something! That’s because all my friends are online/update then. And when do I wake up? Uh…around 1 pm! But it’s fun (even though my VERY perceptive mother found out all my tricks in my not-so-stealthy-internet/computer-usage-sneaking to staying up late -_-). But no need no more! ~Random~ *Dances in her head to current song that’s playing in her head, a favorite of hers, Kasenai Tsumi* La la la… Ah! My friend Lare, a great artist, put up a cute EdXWinry fanart I requested! Check it out! And they’re not in their usual form, those two, but they’re wolves!! So kawaii! A great many good otaku artists around, yup yup *nods head like Steph always does*. Questions! I have a few but let’s just do two, as usual: 1-Name a few really good female Japanese (or Korean) artists/ singers 2-Ever seen an Indian movie? A week back, I watched one called ‘Tahzeeb’ and it was pretty good, intense even. Ahh…different cultures and learning about them… *Smile* Now let’s all try to cheer up. Care for tea anyone? *Laughs*

   Blah & a flaw

Hi…*cough* I got a bad cold. And I have a little headache right now. Must sleep. But I’ve got work to do. School. *Sigh* My grandfather got a stroke. He is 80+ years and was always healthy. He’s paralyzed from one side and cannot speak too clearly. And he was supposed to move in with us by 20th January. Plans may be delayed now. Most of my aunts and uncles from within Canada and the US went to visit him. I wish I was with him in the hospital right now. I used to prepare his dinners, put on and take off his shoes… Today in literature class we were reading a piece and then the teacher asked us “What are the Seven Deadly Sins?” Then she started naming the Humuncoluis and I wa like “Ee! Full Metal Alchemist! Anime makes its way into learning!’ or something of the sort. I was, for some reason, in awe. It was not like one person in the whole class noticed. No anime fans, unfortunately. Booo! Perhaps you might have known of those Seven Deadly Sins. As I was not a Christian or perhaps because I’m a dimwit, I didn’t know that. Well, now you all know. I think I am not very intelligent -_-. But what can I do but accept it? Must make a “I’m a Dimwit and I Know It” club or something… Question 1: Name 1 of your flaws. My answer: Dimwitted! *Sigh* Can I name two? I love to waste time (not really but I do). Procrastinator. Hate routine. The last one was actually mentioned in my Zodiac sign, Sagittarius, although I don’t believe in astrology). I guess I named a few. But there are a lot more, of course of course. Question 2: What’s your Zodiac Sign & do you believe in astrology/ horoscopes? Ja ne my O pals and hope you’ve had a great day!

   Lil' post 'bout anime 'course

Jan 3—4:08 am (I wrote this offline) This morning I saw Blood + and Death Note, episode 1 of each. Blood + was okay but they obviously cut it short at the best part when the main character Saya (spell?) was going to turn to something…a vampire? Death Note freaked me! I rarely get freaked by anything unreal! Okay, not *thump thump* scared with my heart beating but I am fixed to my ethical side of philosophy so I found it contradictory and challenging my way of thoughts. I was like—whoa. Hoe will it end? Anyhow, I think the main character (Light? Is that his name? Remember, the subtitles weren’t English). In fact, he should be called Dark. Thank God real life isn’t like that *sigh* with all that Death God and Death Note stuff. Oh I forgot to mention something! In the Ripley’s Believe it or Not they mentioned that a lot, like thousands, of children in Japan got epileptic seizures at the SAME TIME after watching the same television program. Guess what it was? Pokémon! From the red flashes and stuff. I always dismissed those warnings on the PS2 controllers and stuff. I did catch some anime related records about how many mangas are subscribed/ read/ bought in Japan a day or soemthing but I forgot the number -_-. Oh and the new book I bought had mentioned some character that liked anime. I was like—woot! R.L.Stine knows anime! Me love anime *smiles*. Who knew Japan was gonna be so popular after WW2? Yey for Japan! ^_^ Sorry about the last long post. I just had a lot to say ^ ^’. One question… Q. Your favorite chocolate bar? Me: TWIX! I don’t know but it never leaves me disappointed. Just the right amount of yummy-ness. I actually thought of making it my O theme once. Heh ^ ^’. Oh and ASH, here's one shot of that "Lacus-look alike". If you want more, let me know.

   Anime!!

Take heed—A VERY long post ^_~! I went to the bookstore yesterday. I bought one book by R.L. Stine called Eye Candy. That was after I couldn’t find the book Sam (demon dragon) recommended, Twilight. No fair I didn’t find that book. You know how they say not to judge a book by its cover? I like all the pretty shiny cool covers and I get attracted to them easily—heh. Then I read the synopsis thing and I think, ‘Nah’. I hate books. Not. It’s just that whenever I go to the bookstore I get a neck pain from standing with a book for 25 minutes or more. You know what kind of books do that to me? Stupid Guinness Book of Records, Ripley’s Believe it or Not, and encyclopedias (especially animal ones). I like big books with so much info. Eee!! ANIME SHOWS!! I’ve got good anime news…for me at least. !!^_^!! I got the following anime: 1 Ep. of Wolf’s Rain 1 Ep. of D. Grey Man 1 Ep. Death Note [Non-English subtitles, but I’ll manage] 1 Ep. Blood + [Also non-English subtitles] 1 Ep. Weiss Kreuz 1 Ep. Lodoss 1 Ep. Fruits Basket [Already saw it. Funny. Want it all.] 1 Ep. Kenshin 1 Ep. S-CRYed 1 Ep. Hellising [Also non-English…] 1 Ep. Trigun [Recently got the English subtitled one] Bleach 1-3 [Like it!! Want it!!] Samurai Deeper Kyo 1-14 I also have some Naruto and FMA (!!!!) on the computer, some on CDs. FMA up to the final episode + 1 OAV!! I also had some of Dot Hack Sign but it was such a dreadful dub, that English Dub, that I refused to watch it. Deleted it. Any one wants to recommend this anime to me? If you have any anime to recommend to me please do!! ^_^ See?? Tons of stuff on my computer. And that’s just the anime episodes. My brother keeps telling me that the computer will have “a terminal freeze” if I don’t delete some anime episodes after I’ve watched them. I don’t like to delete things!! I like watching them over or checking something or getting a quote and taking screenshots, etc. of the episodes. I also like the songs! Oh well. It’s not like I believe in the “terminal freeze”. I’ll TRY to keep the computer sane (not really…-_-). Oh, I also have Get Backers 9-13 and Trinity Blood 11-24 [Ion shows up at eppy 11—heh ^_^]. I did delete the first few of these, as well as FMA (although you know I wish I didn’t). I’m trying to get the rest of Wolf’s Rain and Coyote Ragtime Show (some anime I never heard of). Oh and some Prince of Tennis and Ouran Highschool Host Club. I also watched DN Angel and the Advent Children movie (but I didn’t have the chance to watch it). Thanks to 2 of my brother’s friends for their anime CDs which they let me share and copy. I didn’t have to pay a dime! They’re too nice ^_^ Arigatou gozaimasu! Oh and thanks to my bro (for some of Naruto). My scanner’s still broken. I told my dad to fix it. Poor him. He has to fix a lot of things. We (not including me, of course) ruin plenty of things. *Big smile* I can take screenshots of all the anime episodes I have now. Yey!!! I already too plenty (34+) shots of Ion from only 1 eppy of TB. He’s SOOO BEAUTIFUL! AWW! Also a bit of Esther, my other favorite with the gorgeous red hair and blue eyes!! I took some of Abel, who’s’ good-looking with his ice-blue eyes…etc. Yey! Now I can take some of FMA too! ^_^_^_^_^_^_^_^ Feedback on some of the anime I saw and said I will let you know about: ~Wolf’s Rain: Interesting. Wolves disguising themselves as humans. I like Kiba. A cool wolf with nice eyes—yup. The songs are snowy and I like them. I want to see more as I don’t really get much. Why didn’t Tsume save the falling kid? ~D. Grey Man: I never heard or saw this anime before. Oh wow! Cool songs and stuff. I’m excited….There’s this flying gold thingy called Timcanpy. I love the opening already! The song is called ‘Innocent Sorrow’. I wanna memorise it. It’s fun! The music, the OP and the END are eccentric but cool in their own way. The ending is called ‘Snow Kiss’. I really like the opening! I like the animation. Pretty characters. I like Allen. Cute, with cool grey hair and mark under one eye. He’s an exorcist. Oh and Allen really sounds like Al? No…Ed! ~Scryed: First thing I noticed is how similar the animation is to Gundam SEED! One pretty girl looks like Lacus with aquamarine eyes and short blue hair. Her eyes are so pretty! I don’t like it much. I learned a new Japanese word—ossan. It means 40-50 year old man. Heh! It was okay. I want to know what exactly HOLD and Alter are. ~Weiss Kreuz: Uh…I like the red-haired guy named Aya. The animation is okay…Some girl’s boyfriend (who dies) sounds like someone… ~Samurai Deeper Kyo: Pretty Yuya girl. There’s a grey-haired guy named Sasuke. My bro says his full name is Sarutobi Sasuke. Cool eh Naruto fans? Okay animation. Oh! I drew Maximilian from Dark Cloud 2, a video game. He looks okay, though his right-hand weapon isn’t in his right hand -_-. I had to make adjustments as the cover of the game didn’t have his full body. I wanted to fill my page. Last “masterpiece” of 2006. Too bad I can’t scan it -_-. I have a soft spot for that game. I played it over and over and I keep on losing the memory card or the data and I get so upset. Arrgh. It’s more that 50 hours of game play. One long RPG. Zelda: Ocarina of Time and FFX are two of my other favorite videogame experiences. Any of you play video games? I never did mention my fave Naruto opening. I didn’t see much but from the ones I remember I like ‘Haruka Kanata’ and ‘Nami Kaze Satellite’!! Yey for the 2! CurseoftheZodiac liked those too! Yey for a happy start to 2007! It was January here before it was over in Canada and the US, heh. Thanks for your time pals! Ja ne! XD:D Question: Your fave Naruto ending? Mine is ‘Wind’, ‘Yellow Moon’, ‘Parade’, and ‘Soba ni Iru Kara’.

   Occurrences/ V-game Characters

On the 28th of November, roughly month ago, a man who was a friend of my father’s died at 2 am my time (or 7pm of Nov. 27th Ottawa time) from what was said to be a heart attack. He was healthy yet had stayed from work that day due to a cold. No one escapes natural death. Simply, his time in this life was over. He was lucky to have spent it with his children, after he tucked them in that night. I visited his family. He left behind 6 children, 2 under the age of 15. Even though I didn’t know him, it was still difficult for me to believe that he was NEVER to walk on his two feet on this Earth in front of my face, again… What do we learn from death? It’s the one thing that is CERTAIN to happen yet do we realize that we could be next and spend our lives well? We forget after a while and go on as if nothing happened, unaware of the passing time… Sorry if I sound…gloomy. I really am not right now. ^_^ I just wanted to remind everyone to think what it is that they wanted to be proud of, to have done, to have others smile about, when they pass away. *Sniff* Hughes… Hey did anyone see that show 8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter?? I don’t watch it always but I find it enjoyable. Sad that the father in the show passed away. So did the actor. Anyways…don’t be so glum people! I’m just getting started. Uh…yeah. Today’s Eid. Eid is an Islamic celebration. So happy Eid to all the Muslims! I do celebrate it. ^_^ Random: The main character in Boston Public’s name is CHI. Chi! Weird. Oh, and no, I don’t watch Boston Public. I was just playing Soul Caliber 3. I’ve played it before. I’m not really good or try hard to memorize the moves but I do have fun (most of the time except when I get SO frustrated after losing to the same person 20 times—heh) and my main goal is to see their individual stories. Anyhow, I just finished Raphael’s. I always misplace the memory card so now I’m using my brother’s and I have to start everything all over. *Sigh* But I don’t care much for that game, enough to worry about playing it over and over. I also like Tekken 5. I’ve finished all of that one except the ‘Devil Within’ part. I’m getting to this post’s questions! Get ready—Okay… 1. Who do you think is the hottest/best-looking guy/ girl in Soul Calibur? 2. Who do you think is the hottest/best-looking guy/ girl in Tekken 5? 3. Who’s your fave girl/guy in SC3 and Tekken 5? Please give 2 answers for each if you know the characters. You can look them up if you want. -_- My answers are: 1) This is hard…but I’ll say Raphael; Ivy (I really don’t like her in the main outfit) 2) Lee Chaolan; Nina Williams 3) SC3: Seong Mi-na; Yun-Seung TEKKEN 5: Hworang, Asuka/Nina (Couldn’t choose!) Oh I didn’t answer my question on the 22nd about what anime character I’m currently obsessed with. There is no anime character I’m currently obsessed with -_-. Does liking Winry work? Hmm…I think I’m sick…heh. I don’t even feel fan-girly lately. Abnormal, isn’t it? Well, this was a long post! Thanks for visiting. Ja ne!
