   It's wednesday already

Well yesterday what did I do...? Ummm classes and then I went with the other tahitian guys for lunch, and then we headed to Borders...Why the heck did they change the manga section again?! It's the 3rd time they change the place....Well at least now I think that there are even more manga...maybe that's because of that... I bought myself Hot Gimmick 11, man I can't tell you how long I've waited for it to come out...and also the novel of the video games Devil May Cry...Actually. I didn't know that there was a novel of it, and I was surprised to see it on the shelf too....Well the story takes place after the video game Devil May Cry 3 and before Devil May Cry 1...so it might be interesting to read it....And also, I especially bought that novel because the art is from the awsome artist Miwa Shirou...I just love his artwork....too bad though that there aren't lots of drawing in the novel That's the cover of the novel...It seems like there will be more than one volume....Dang if I knew I wouldn't have bought it....Oh well...that's still so reading to do lol ^_^ Today...some more classes, we learned how to give directions to people....and also, tomorrow the school's activity will be rock climbing....I so want to go, but there isn't anyone who wants to come with me T_T...I kinda convinced Yuko the japanese girl in my class, but she'll see with her other friends if they want to come...I hope they'll accept, or I'll have to go alone...yet again T_T Except from that....oh yeah we were playing a game, where we were asked a question beginning with What would you do... and I landed on the question: What would you do if 2 people fell in love with you.....Ummmm that was a tough one cause I've never been in that situation....and the german guy told me...."You just have to do a threesome" O.o lol...man that was hilarious lol ^_^' Oh and new music today....that's Rie Fu and her song Decay...I just love that song, it's so cool to listen to ^_^ Toilet paper lol...now that's a great prank to do lol Guy pic Now, that I think that's a fanart...and it's Cloud from Final Fantasy VII, but judging from the clothes, it's from Kingdom Hearts....Speaking of Kingdom Hearts...the secong game should be out for us around November I think...Man that's really a long time to wait...I was so looking forward to see it -_-' Well that's about it...I blabbed about lots of things in a weird way..so I hope that you understand it...at least most of it lol ^_^ See ya later ^_^

   Another week has started...

Well I was a bit surprised to see that some of you don't like kiwi fruit...don't you know that they're full of vitamin?! lol...no I'm joking, don't worry ^_^ Anyway...don't worry, you don't have to use kiwifruit on the pavlova, just use whatever fruit you want....So here's the recipe: MARSHMALLOW PAVLOVA You need: 4*60g egg whites 3/4 cup caster sugar 1 teaspoon vinegar 1 teaspoon vanilla essence 300ml whipped cream Fruits(strawberries, grappes...) Method -Lay a sheet of baking paper on a microwave safe tray -Beat the egg whites until stiff -Add sugar gradually beating after each addition -Carefully fold in the vinegar and vanilla and turn mixture onto tray. Heap it onto the tray in a circle about 23cm(9 inches) round in diameter, drawing up the sides of the mixture a little to leave a recess in the centre after cooking -Cook on high for 2-2 1/2 min. Leave undisturbed for 10-15 minutes with the door slightly open. Note here that not all microwaves cook at the same speed. You may find that you pavlova may need a few more seconds or minutes of cooking time. -Place on a serving plate and decorate with whipped cream and fruit. *Note: a microwave pavlova doesn't have the same crisp crust as the conventially baked pavlova.However the time-saving using a microwave in amazing. For those who prefer a firmer surface on their pavlova, then one minute under a heated grill (on moderate heat) will help to achieve this. That's it...that is the recipe for the cake you can see on the previous post ^_^. It's really easy to do it and it's really delicious ^_^ Ummm...other than that...well on saturday, we went to the movies like the usual, and we saw Miami Vice...because my bro wanted to see that movie.....Well it was good so it's ok lol ^_^. Haha it was my brother's turn to get the tickets, and I got to wait for him. However, because that movie was R16, he was asked about how old the other person(me) was before giving him the tickets...He showed me to the cashier and she took some time looking at me and figuring out that I was [much] older than 16 lol...In a way it's annoying, but it's always fun to look younger than your actual age lol ^_^ Well that's about all that I got to say...New music also for the week..It's from the anime Mezzo and the opening song Suki Mami Mai Tai...lol that song is just hilarious ...I always try to sing together at the end of the song, but sometimes I just can't lol...anyway, that song is just funny and hope that you like it too ^_^ Which way to go? Ummm what a tough choice ...lol ^_^' Group pic The gang of the anime/manga Kenshin....I just prefer the art from the manga...Sometimes I think that when they did the anime, they just didn't do a good job....but I don't say that it's all bad either...it's always fun seeing your heros talking lol ^_^ Well that's about it...nothing else to say...See ya later Oh yeah, if you ever try the pavlova cake...don't forget how it turned out for you ^_^

Today was cooking the pavlova, a kiwi cake mainly made with egg whites, sugar, whipped cream and fruits....If you're interested, just tell me and I can write the recipe for you on my next post lol ^_^ That's what the pavlova look like...*drools* man isn't that just wonderfull lol...and not only to the eye, but also into the mouth lol... that cake was just so great, and now I'm just full lol...I think I won't need to eat tonight lol ^_^' Love Well I like that gif, and it's really true what it says...but sometimes it's kinda annoying to have someone stuck to your brains lol ^_^' Girl pic Well this anime is Kanazuki no miko...I don't really know what it's about, but I heard that is was good....a mix of different styles in there also : romance, mecha, love triangle, bishies...^_^ Sounds great isn't it?

   Same usual days....

Well nothing much to say about my days at English school...it's always the same....but at least I'm not wasting my time, and that's in these situations that I enjoy having homework to do....when I don't have nothing esle to do lol ^_^' Anyway, today there was this japanese girl Yuko in my class and she was asking me about the TV show Prison Break that went on TV last night...because she missed some episodes, she couldn't really understand what was happening...so yeah for once, I had a chat with a classmate during break time lol ^_^...it was pretty cool, then we talked about anime and english dubb of Dragon Ball, which really sucks by the way ...yeah that was pretty fun ^_^ After class today, I went to Borders and spent my afternoon reading Land of Blindfolded 6-7 and Ouran High Host Club 6 I think...pretty funny stuff, really cool...So you can say that I had a good day right ? lol ^_^ New music today, it's Sukima Switch with their song Rasen...I kinda like the song's rythm and I almost completely forgot about that song lol...anyway hope you like it too ^_^ Last roll of New Zealand's pic for you..because well, our last destination was Auckland again and so for the whole week, we went to different places, but the most important ones were the Kelly Tarlton's aquarium and the Zoo.... Maybe the most impressive pic that I took of my friend at the aquarium....the sting ray there is Phoebe I think and she's the biggest sting ray of the aquarium....I don't remember how tall she is but it's really impressive....I like to touch them they're really soft, like eels lol ^_^' Then, it out to the Zoo...the first stop was the Giraffes....We also got the occasion to feed them, but the funniest pic that I got of them is this one....I always found it funny to see them drink water lol ^_^ Then it was the White Rhino....I was finally able to take a full shot of it while he was peeing lol.... Then, next to them are the Lions...it's not a zoo if you don't have lions.....well, I heard that they sleep 22h a day, so yeah, there'd have a REALLY thin chance that we'd see them do something else than sleeping lol ^_^' Then, finally we got Cheetahs....They are pretty new....only from this year, and they are Osiris and Anubis, 2 brothers aged of only a year....It's the first time I see cheetahs and they're so cute...I want to pet them lol ... Well of course there were many other animals there, but these were my favourite ^_^...Unfortunately, my friend didn't get the chance to see the tiger, because it looked like she wasn't there(the tiger's name is Nisha I think)....oh well better luck next time...I hope ^_^ Parody How do you like Evangelion girls Rei, Asuka and Misato wear Excel Saga girl's suits? (respectively Elgala, Hyatt and Excel) lol...Well I think that it's a pretty well made parody and it DOES suit them lol ^_^ Well that's it for today...Also, I tried to comment on some sites, but it seems like myO is having some troubles...did that happen to you too? Anyway, hope you like the song and the pics ^_^ See ya later ^_^

   Another usual day going on in my life

Well, now that I go to that English class...I do even less than usual for my days... 8.00 wake up 8.30 get out of bed and get ready 9.20 go to school 9.30 arrive in class 11.20 lunch break, that I spend getting bored in class 11.30 back from break 12.30 end of the class And then, depending on the day, I either go home and do nothing or play with the GBA, or I go to the gym, or spend the day at Borders....what lot of fun that is.... Thankfully, I get to talk with my cousin on msn almost everyday, which is really cool...I really miss her and taling to her.... Anyway, I won't bore you more with that...some more pics of New Zealand....Our next stop was Taupo...a pretty cool town...a small one too, but heck!. It gots the biggest lake in New Zealand too....the Lake Taupo...of course lol... Ok...this place is called Crater of the moon...because well obviously there are lots of craters, but it's from the earth's activity....pretty cool place and really nice views ... This is the Huka Falls....New Zealand's most visited attraction...you can see why...these falls are so powerful, they can fill up an olympic pool every 5 seconds! How's that? really impressive... Behind us you can see the Huka Falls, and we're riding the Huka Jet...and really powerfull jetboat where the rider gets us really close to rocks or branches that are underwater....really impressive and awsome....so cool, and sometime you get 360 spins with the boat too...that's just the best...and you get to get wet with the cold water too...how's that lol ^_^ That's us waiting for our tour van....it's just a little funny pic that I wanted to show you...My friend and I are doing the same pose lol...and we didn't even noticed it until we actually saw the picture lol ^_^ That's how tahitian people, so used to hot weather, look like in snow lol...My poor grandpa was so cold, he got his jacket really tight lol ^_^ These are some really impressive carvings that were done on the cliffs of the lake Taupo....12 students and 2 leaders were needed to do all that in 2 years....This is just part of the carvings, there were also some rocks in the surroundings that were carved as well....really impressive I tell you ^_^ Well that's about it for the pics, as you could have guessed, Taupo is also a touristic town, so the shopping isn't that great...Also, because of the lake being that close, it's actually pretty cold out there too... Girl pic Well this is a random pic that I like....hope you like it too Well as you can see, I changed my theme today...I spent all my afternoon doing that, as well as talking to my cousing online...which was kinda hard to do both lol....I rushed a little in it, so the theme may not be that great, but I think I did pretty good lol ^_^ So with that new theme to take care of, I'm a little late for updating, but well I still managed lol...hope you like it too, it changes from Escaflowne huh? Ok the theme is Gunslinger Girl, where girls are used as assassins in Europe. They also get their bodies changed as robots, but in a way, if they didn't, they'd be dead by now...Because they were all victims of really unfortunate fates, so as they were about to die, the organization got them and changed their bodies and then trained them as assassins....I read the manga and it's really great, the art is really awsome....The anime is just as great too...if you can see it, I really recommend it ^_^ Well that's about it for today...I'll be going to watch TV and then, we'll go eat out ^_^ See ya later ^_^

   I'm back

Well sorry for not updating for the last couple of days, it's just that my brother spent all his time on the computer and I didn't have the opportunity to come on it....Or it was so late that I wasn't in the mood anymore to post....But I did visit you guys, well at least those of you who stopped by my site and gave me a comment.... Anyway, it's not that I did anything special in the weekend...so you didnt miss anything lol...just went to the movies on Saturday..We went to see You, me and Dupree with Owen Wilson...Man that actor is just so freaking hilarious...I just like him ^_^ I really recommend that movie if you didn't see it yet, and if you're looking for a funny movie to watch ^_^ Some more pics of New Zealand, from our trip....The next town we hit was Rotorua...this is pretty much a small touristic town, but you got lots of stuff to discover there and activities that you can do....This is the town where most of the maoris, New Zealand's native people, live because there can get hot water from natural hot springs...which is really great ... If you ever visit New Zealand, you just HAVE TO go there... This is the town center...really crowded as you can see lol...Well, Rotorua is just a small town, so there isn't any major traffic going on...it's really a good town to relax...but don't expect the shopping to be good though lol ^_^' I forgot this waterfall's name, but I remember it's height: 30 meters high....This waterfall is found in a museum called Buried Village, because where it stands, there used to be a village which was destroyed years ago (I don't remember precisely) and the whole area was buried under hot ashes that followed I don't remember which mountain's eruption....Pretty cool, better than how it used to be when we last came...really great history place....(that's me, my friend and my bro on the pic) Maybe the best activity you can do there in Rotorua...The Luge...you get to ride on that 3 wheels cart and go down the hill...and you come back up with the chairlift...Pretty cool it's really awsome I can tell you that...Everytime we go to Rotorua, we just HAVE to go there lol ^_^(that's my friend and me behind her trying to get past her lol ^_^) This the view you can see up the hill where the Luge is....if you don't feel like going down the hill by luge, you can just enjoy the view....There's even a restaurant up there....Sounds cool, but we never tried it....we only go there for one thing only lol...you guessed it The luge lol ^_^ If I'm not mistaken, this lake is called the Blue lake...it's just been recently opened to the public...The water is so clear and deep that it reflects the sky's blue colour, and thus it was called the Blue lake....really beautifull scenery isn't it? This is in the middle of a maori village...the water there is called Champagne pool, because of the bubbles created by the hot water...Believe me or not, but the maori use that Champagne pool to cook their food in it....With water of a temperature reaching around the 90's degrees celcius, your foods just cook in a matter of minutes and it just tastes delicious....They cook corn it it for tourists, you just add salt and butter....and you can just drool over that delicious meal lol ^_^' Well that's about it for the New Zealand pics...I tell you it's really a place worth visiting ^_^ The plumber You can really see that this plumer has really lots of humour lol ^_^ Group pic These frogs are there to conquer the Earth, or Pokepon in their language lol....This is the Keroro's Squad from the anime Keroro Guns( or Sergeant Frog): Keroro, Giroro, Kururu, Dororo and Tamama lol...yeah that's their names... Man I read that manga and I can tell you that's it's really hilarious, lots of parody in it and you just can't stop yourself from laughing lol...Also, we saw some parts of the anime on YouTue and it's just as great....Giroro's voice is Jouji Nakata...Alucard from Hellsing's voice....really hilarious lol ^_^ Ummm almost forgot, this is the opening theme of the anime Black Lagoon and it's really cool....hope you like it too ^_^ Well that's about it...hope you enjoy the pics, and the music too.... See ya later ^_^

   Pretty good day

Well today, at school we had some exercises as usual...then we talked about why we find learning new language [like english] difficult for us foreign student....there were many reasons like grammar, vocabulary, speaking and I said the accentuation..... Then, when I said that my first language is French, lots of them were like WOW...I wanna learn it....Man you don't know how much it's so difficult....so many tenses, the grammar is awfull and well I've never been that good in French..... The teacher then said that it's kinda romantic to hear English with a frend accent...Blech...I really hate it, sounds really awfull, I'd trade it no problem with a really Englsh accent any time lol....But I guess you can't change what you are lol ^_^' Then, after school (I only go there part time, meaning only the morning), and thought that maybe the maids weren't done with the housework yet (you can't be sure when they'll be working in your room, varies too much lol), I went and spent my time reading mangas at Borders...Aaahhhh it's been a while I didn't go there....I read Land of the blindfolded 3-5...man that manga is just really cool....it's about 3 people....2 of them can see the future when they touch someone else and the otber sees the past....because it's 2 guys and a girl, of course there's a love triangle going there too...and plus the art is really cool to see. Also, because of their gift, they are treated as monsters by other people... Then, went back home....I wanted to resist the temptation of not eating junk food for a while, but I couldn't....bought myself a pack of chips lol.... Oh and Number 5, you asked me how much I weight...I am 62kg...because yeah I'm a bit too fat and mostly cause I'm athletic too...so much for a girl's body lol...oh well...I don't really care anyway...I prefer myself like that rather than only the skin over my bones.....too skinny in my tastes lol...^_^ Other pics of New Zealand.....This is Gisborne...a pretty nice place...but too boring for young people...You can see there as a place to relax during retirement or holidays...not to stay all the time.... Also, this is supposed to be the first place on Earth to see the sun rise. On new year's 2000, there was a big party on the beach there to see the first ray of light of the new millenium...sounds really awsome ^_^ Gisborne was also the place where the Endeavour, Captain Cook's ship discovered New Zealand....This statue above is in memory of Nicholas Young "Young Nic" who first saw it on his mat.... Now this is a statue in memory of James Cook....On it, there were details of his different travels around the globe and the different places he went to... This is the beach...man doesn't really look like beach to me.....I so prefer our beaches back in Tahiti than that lol...and as my friend said: it's the first time we went on the beach dressed with pants, sweats and shoes lol.... Well this a dog made out of ....well don't know how you call it...It's from a company who makes shed and that's the mascot...we used to see it a lot in ads...anyway, just thought that it was kinda cute lol ^_^ So, this is Gisborne....another note...it takes 9 hours of bus from Auckland to arrive there...man I almost got sick in it...almost puked too...that was so not great -_-' Strange watermelon Well now, that's a really strange watermelon...looks like a butt...lol....so is that a siamese watermelon? you can get that with bananas too, but never heard of watermelon ones lol.... Group pic This is the trio Chrno, Rosette Christopher and Azumaria from Chrno Crusade...I think this is around episode 3-4...but man, that's really a cool anime.... Well that's about it...tomorrow, we were asked to do a presentation for 5 minutes about something in our country...oh great...another presentation...I just didn't have enough of them back in the university lol ^_^' Also, I was supposed to change my music today, but I came back home too late and am too lazy to upload the music now anyway lol...maybe tomorrow... Well then, enjoy the pics and See ya later ^_^

   Whoa I spoke in class!

Yes that is a real miracle lol....I don't usually talk that much in class...but it's so much easier than in the university that I can't help but want to talk in class lol ^_^ Today, we heard 4 stories about people and their exploits and we had to determine which story proves to be the best, who showed more courage than the others: - the first story is about a british couple who cross both the north and south poles, against sometimes temperatures lower than -50 degrees celcius. It was to raise money for the Cancer research and children charity..... -the second was about a woman, who immigrated to Britain and then founded a drop out centre for children in trouble famillies. She has to deal with gangsters and dealers all the time, even recruited some ex-thugs to make the children able to recognize themselves in these people -the third story is a bit funny, but also a bit stupid when you really think about it: 3 old ladies were robbed their cars by an armed man, but the old ladies didn't let themselves be robbed...the first one grabbed the gun, the second one punched him in the eye and the last one attacked him until he loses control of the vehicule and crashed on the side on the road...the old ladies are fine .... - the last one was a story about a policeman who heard on his radio about a woman and her 3 children being stuck on a sandbank and threatened by the coming tide....so he went a rescued them by himself... In the end, the last story won by majority and the second one [my favourite] was second lol...For the first time I argued about stuff like that lol... that was pretty fun lol ^_^ Then, after school, I went to the gym....Miracle I practically lost 500 g of the 2kg that I gained during the holidays lol....1.50kg to go lol ^_^ Oh and as promised, some pics of our trip....The first stop is Auckland....of course, that's where the international airport and where we live so, they had to come there first lol...so we stayed there for about 2 days before going to other towns.... That's part of our AUT campus....from left to right, this is my bro, my gramps, my best friend and myself..... Now on to the main street on the city centre of Auckland : Queen St...as you can see, Mc Donalds is everywhere lol ^_^' More to come on later posts Couple pic This is Revy and Rock from the anime Black Lagoon...they really make a nice couple....too bad that they don't really get on very well lol...but that's what makes it more interesting lol ^_^ A big mistake Now I wonder how they'll undo that lol....that's a pretty stupid mistake....lol ^_^ Well that's about it...hope you like the pics and so on... See ya later ^_^
