what’s really fake and what’s real…

new changes since I’ve my last blog post.. first of all in Beatmania, I’m eventually trying to finish all of the level 6 songs (be it Normal or Hyper difficulty) so that I could easily understand the notes whenever I press them on the right time.. what’s really hard on level 6 is that there are moderate amounts of three notes that should be pressed at the same time, which is really tricky.. I finished Melody Life (Hyper), but I still got trouble with some parts of that song and sometimes I can’t finish that song.. The Hyper mode of Wish is really the Level 6 song that I can surely pass no matter what happens (unless if I didn’t allow that auto-scratch to be activated), it’s because it’s probably one of the easiest level 6 songs there.. but there are some level 6 songs which I cannot pass like Mint and Alfarshear.. maybe I should keep playing to further improve my skills in Beatmania..

in DrumMania, things really changed a lot, now that’s Janriy’s have classes, most I play DM when Robert’s around.. I feel anguish, depressed and ashamed of one group in DM.. I noticed the are getting more confident among themselves.. confident in the sense that they can laugh and do jokes which is really not pleasing anymore.. two persons wanted to borrow my drumstick but I got mad at them because they are irresponsible and I just bursted my anger out to them.. nakakalungkot na kasi, at the same time, nakakainis.. nakakainis, in the sense that, they are insensitive at me.. most of the time, akala ko tapos na sila sa mga credits nila.. yun pala meron pa pala.. uupo na sana ako upang maglaro pero meron pa sila.. I am sure that kasunod ko sina Robert and the other guy, but I’m terribly shocked and disappointed that they are still not finished.. eh di siyempre nalungkot ako, pero parang wala silang reaction eh.. I expect that since they are not really my close friends.. I thought if I joined their group, I would become close to them, but it seems not.. napapansin ko rin sa past life ko, I thought some of my friends before na akala ko magiging close ko na, eventually mawawala na rin friendship namin.. I think it’s going to happen again.. clue: it’s a “crew”, basta grupo siya ng DM.. I won’t say the names para hindi halata masyado.. it’s really hard to express my anger to them, better if sa blog or diary na lang..

now with that problem which now my problem now.. things are not going to get well now.. unless they will apologize to me or if they change and they wanted to give me a second chance, I can forgive them.. but they must prove to me first before I could forgive them.. running doesn;t solve anything, but quitting is better than to continue to struggle.. I know I could not please all people, due to the fact that some people notice that I’m very quiet, weird and serious, but I’m just trying to be myself.. note that quiet people cannot speak for no reason at all! >:|

Beatmania IIDX DistorteD favorite songs!

hello! well, I’m always playing Beatmania IIDX DistorteD in the arcades during my break time or after my classes in school! my first favorite song when I first tried this game is Break Out by Orange Lounge. I really love the beat of that song and it sounds really cool! Next is Bloody Tears (because of the video itself featuring a video game which looks really cool! :D) When I tried Standard Mode, I first choose some Level 2 and 3 song and that’s how I discovered the song Think of me by good-cool feat. Sana. It sounded really great and the song is so inspiring and sweet, making it my instant favorite! next is Tell Me More… by Togo-chef feat. Asahina Aki!! the music video of this song really makes me laugh because the girl dances really funny!! nakakatuwa ung girl sumayaw at ang ganda pa niya (even though most people hate this song or the video, or even both the song and the video)!
eventually, I tried the song Love is Orange since it also has the same artist on Break Out which is Orange Lounge. I played with that song every now and then, until I can pass it. Eventually, I tried playing some Level 5 songs, I tried playing Bloody Tears and murmur twins on Standard Mode, but I still couldn’t pass it after a few plays. So I’ve decided to keep on practicing on my favorite songs on Standard Mode, but I still couldn’t get a grade higher than B. I’ve got an A grade once in Break Out (auto-scratch), and on Think of me (auto-scratch). The other songs on my favorites, I usually get a B or a C.

by accident, I tried Expert Mode last Sunday. I chose the DistorteD course since I know most of the DistorteD songs, but I found out that that course is more on electronic or weird sounding songs. On my first try, after 5 songs, my life remains only a 16%. On the following day, I tried that course again and I’ve improved greatly since my life ended at 56%! I’ve got an A grade on the good-cool song (the 5th and last song on this course) and on the song Tonight? My favorite tracks from this course is actually all of them!! Well, seriously yes.. since they are upbeat and club sounding! Yeah! But my most favorite will be TYPE MARS (G-Style Mix) since it sounded like a track on Ragnarok Online. Nexy would be Tonight? by DJ Remo-con and Winning Eleven9 Theme by Sota Fujimori. The other 2 songs sounded okay, I’m not a fan of rockish songs and the Crazy K.I.N.O. songis an okay song for me.

Well, I will keep on practicing by playing Level 4 songs on Standard and playing Expert mode often, until I can pass Level 5 songs. When I can finally pass them, I will try going for Level 6 or higher until I can do it to Level 12.

Well, of course, I’m still am having trouble on the turntable or the scratching skill when the auto-scratch is not turned off. So maybe I must pass Level 4 songs without the auto-scratch on, so I can proceed with Level 5 songs. Since I already played on JamLegend for many months, I expect me to improve and time in on the beats on this game, even with the turntable scratches!

am I just like Emil Castagnier? realizations: change for the better!

this is really a tricky topic for some reason.. but I wanted to tell this to the people whom I know on the places I go nowadays..

first stop, start be more stingy this time.. I know it’s hard kung walang natitirang pera or kung konting pera lang ang natitira everytime I go home from school.. mahirap din kasi kung I’m always being generous and I sort of give a lot of money and tokens to this person whom I always get along to…

unfortunately, this thing didn’t work on my first day of school.. because, he’s still asking to me for money or tokens and he wouldn’t want just to be treated a little for my own benefit! man, how could I do this? I mean, I don’t to scold him for being asking for too much to me.. but I’m running out of thoughts..

I am really struck to what Richter said the game in Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World. He said “Courage is the magic that turns dreams into reality”. He even said that Emil should learn how to stand up for himself and speak like a man or bullies will continue to tease him if he doesn’t change and still likes passive or being quiet all the time. I realized that I’m like Emil Castagnier! Marta Lualdi even said to Emil that “C’mon, you’re a man. Speak up!”. Whoa! I am ABSOLUTELY like Emil. Sometimes I don’t usually speak unless necessary, but sometimes I don’t have to speak anymore so that nothing bad happens. I just wanted to be that way all the time, but it seems it’s really hard for me to change!

Oh no, do I still have the change? Why does most people hate me for who I am! I am not a “plastic” person, I wanted to be quiet because I don’t know what to say, I don’t know what to do and I only speak when it’s only necessary or needed. Yeah sure, I get mad usually, but I just wanted to raise my voice so that people could hear me out and at the same time, they will be aware of my emotions.

congrats to me on Check Mii Out Channel! xD

I’m soo happy, na nanalo ung Leonardo the Vinci Mii na ginawa ko at I entered it on the contest kahit na hindi ako sure sa gawa ko na un! I’m expecting my Mii to be at the 1st level only, dahil ung submitted Mii ko dun sa contest na “The grandmother who enjoys rock music” reached only 1st level (which is kinda low at gulat ako na mababa lang siya).. the voting for the Leonardo the Vinci Contest ended last April 27, 2009 (Monday).. and the results came yesterday (April 30) at 1PM! gulat na lang ako na umabot siya ng 9th level!! wow, it’s a new record! well, I did my best anyway.. sadya na pinataba ko sa da Vinci and patangkadin because he’s supposed to be that way.. and he has a grey moustache and a gray hair w/ wrinkles on his face, kaya un ang pagkagawa ko sa submitted Mii ko.. konti na lang at umabot na sana ako sa Top 50 winning Miis!! maybe he’s got to be at the 10th level para makabilang sa Top 50!! well, if ever na may nagawa akong Mii submission na umabot sa Top 50 or 10th level, I’ll post it here as well!

here’s the picture of my 9th level Leonardo the Vinci Mii..

my Leonardo da Vinci Mii

will this conflict never end?

this is the main problem that I’m trying deal with now.. I won’t say his name here (even though he’s not my friend here).. well, it all started last last Wednesday pagkagaling ko sa COMP03 Lab class.. bumalik ako sa Soul Calibur 2 arcade upang laruin ko ulit ung mga characters ko.. 3 days ko na hindi sila nilaro (Ikey-Poo, Ocean & Genis), so nag-alala na ako sa kanila and I wanted to play them again para makabawi lang sa wins…

pagdating ko sa arcade, this guy na may “Phoenix” Edgemaster, bigla na lang ako hiningian ng token.. tama ba naman un? ayaw niya rin ako palaruin, but I’m pretty sure sinabihan ko siya na ako naman ang maglalaro in a decent way.. of course, nainis na ako and then tumahimik na ako.. deep inside, naiinis na ako sa kanya because marami siya maglaro at ayaw niya ako palaruin.. after a few minutes, nag walk-out na ako.. nainis na ako nun sa kanya.. tumambay muna ako sa drum mania 9th mix, at kinausap ko muna c jhapz.. dumating siya kasama c janriy.. ayun, nagalit na ako sa kanya.. at sinabihan ko na siya, na “masyado na siya nagmamayabang at inuunahan mo na ung character ko, hindi naman akong magaling na Raphael at Taki user” basta something like that.. at umalis na ako pauwi sa bahay… the day after next, hindi na ako dumaan ng tom’s world or storyland…

nakakainis lang siya kasi.. first of all, tama ba naman na parati mag-ask for tokens or ilibre ko siya everytime na nandyan ako? nakakainis na.. tapos, kapag natatalo ako kapag ako ung naglalaro sa Conquest, kung anu-ano ung sinasabi niya.. minsan nakaka-offend na siya… at eto pa, marami siya maglaro sa Soul Calibur 2.. dapat naman isipan niya na palaruin ako, kaso nakakapagod din maghintay.. hindi rin niya napapansin na panay hintay ko sa tabi niya.. at eto pa, he’s very insensitive to me!! kapag nalulungkot ako, parang wala lang siya.. hindi siya magpapayo or i-cocomfort ako.. nakakainiz tlaga!! sa totoo lang, hindi siya tunay na kaibigan.. dahil minsan nakakainis na ung mga ginagawa niya.. kaya tama ko lang na pagalitan siya para lesson na un sa kanya.. of course, I may be wrong in either way pero dapat hindi na siya masyado umaabuso na parati na lang siya ganyan.. d naman ako uber mayaman to treat him always or uber magaling sa SC2, na hindi ako matatalo… d ba? pinabibigyan ko na nga siya eh, kapag nandyan siya sa Soul Calibur 2, hindi na lang ako maglalaro kasi baka magalit pa siya or what!!

at eto pa, yesterday afternoon.. napilitan ako ni Janriy na dumaan sa Tom’s para maglaro ng Soul Calibur 3… sa totoo lang, ayoko kasi alam kong nandyan siya.. pero I have no choice but to obey.. sabi kasi ni Janriy sa akin na “wag ko na lang pansinin siya, kaya mo yan”.. eh di pumunta na kami sa may SC3 arcade.. nandyan sina Jhona May, Brutal Emo at Tobias.. pero parang wala lang sila sa akin kasi ung taong un talaga ung pinoproblema ko ngaun.. naglaro ako ng Snake at Bounce sa cellphone ko para kunyari wala lang ako.. sad talaga ako nung time na un at panay dasal ko (or sign of the cross).. biglang dumating siya.. at sinabihan si Janriy na “go to hell.. blah blah”.. hindi ko na lang pinansin at focused ako sa nilalaro ko sa cp ko.. pero I have an idea or grudge na ako ung sinasabihan niya, even though he’s spitting it out kay Janriy.. eh d aun na, naglaro kami ni Janriy gamit si Raphael sa Legend mode ng SC3.. tapos siya ung naglaro next, gulat na lang ako na ung Raphael na Wen-09 ung nilabanan niya at pinower-up niya.. eh d nainis ako na ako nun (but I didn’t spit it out to him).. chinallenge ni Janriy siya using Nightmare pero talo pa rin siya.. pagkatapos niya maglaro, umalis na kami.. gulat na lang ako na sinisigawan niya yata ako ng kung anu-ano na masasama (like “akala mo naman inuunahan kita ganyan ganyan” “get to hell”) grrr!! nainis na talaga ako.. sabi ni Janriy sa akin na nagpaparinig na siya sa akin dahil lang sa pinagalitan ko siya.. nakaka-bad 3p talaga!!

hayz, now that war na kami dun sa taong un.. maglalaro ako ng Soul Calibur 2 kapag wala siya.. at kapag nandyan siya, hindi ako maglalaro.. period!!

nakakainis lang tlaga siya.. kasi masyado siya mayabang, insensitive at masyado na siya “mouthful” magsalita… hindi naman niya naiisip na nasasaktan na ako lalo na kung panay hintay ko sa turn ko kasi madami tlaga siya maglaro.. I now, marami siyang side comments sa akin.. pero to be honest, siya naman ang mali d ba? nakakainis lang tlaga.. pinabibigyan ko na siya na Phoenix na siya, at hindi na ako maglalaro.. tsk!! I AM 100% ABSOLUTELY sure na siya ang mali, hindi ako… he’s very insensitive to my feelings!! I hate him na talaga.. hindi na ako makikipagsorry sa kanya.. dapat siya ang magsorry.. and kung magsorry siya sa akin (siya ang lalapit for me), I won’t ever accept his apology.. sabihan pa ako ng “go to hell”, eh wala na ako ginagawa.. my goodness! he’s very evil!! nakapasama niyang tao! hindi ako magtatako sa mga salita ba naman na binibitiw niya at ung expressions niya! ugh!! I just don’t like him, honestly!

first timer in Festival Mall! :D

yay! first time kong pumunta ng Festival Mall nung last Saturday (March 7, 2009).. naisipan ko pumunta dun just to relieve all of my stresses.. first stop, naglibot muna ako sa mall.. and then, pumunta ako ng X-Site.. tiniry ko ung Drum mania dun (I think it’s called Percussion Freaks 9th Mix), and I noticed na 3 songs ang siya and 2 tokens ang isang game! whoa!! mas madali din mag game over dun!! waaaa! cguro mga around 7 mistakes or more, ubos agad ang life meter mo or nasa danger zone na… so if you want to play there, kailangan kabisado mo na ung mga pipiliin mong songs or kung magaling ka na talaga! 0.o also, I noticed dun sa Percussion Master nila, 2 songs lang sa isang credit!! waaa! bitin!! tapos, mas shorter ang drumstick nila compared dun sa Southmall! as in pambata talaga! xD

hmm, and then nung naalala ko ung sinabi ng isang guy na naglaro sa Soul Calibur 2.. na naglalaro siya sa Festival Mall at dalawa ang Soul Calibur 2 arcades dun! isa sa X-SIte, which is ung alam ko.. and may isa pa sa babang Tom’s World!! so pumunta ako sa baba, after ko maglaro at magibot sa X-Site.. at nakita ko ung Tom’s World na un! malapit sa escalator at sa Goldilocks.. unang tingin kong arcade is ung Dance Maniax!! aliw!! xD may dmx pala dun!! susubukan ko nga un mamaya! and then, nakita ko na ung Soul Calibur 2 malapit sa Videoke at Tekken Tag arcade.. marami na ding Edge Masters dun! and guess what? engish ang salita dun! unlike sa Southmall, ung SC2 ay Japanese ung language!! so mas maiintindihan mo dun sa Tom’s World sa baba!! nanood ako ng conquest nya at gamit nung player si Cervantes.. ung sa pipili ng color ay soldiers pala un numbers sa un.. tapos kapag i-eenter mo na name at password mo, kpag tama ang entry ang lalabas is “identity confirmed. welcome back “! at least, naintindihan ko na un!! xD after that, tiniry ko ung dance maniax dun!! gulat ako na 3 songs lang kapag center or single!! tapos kapag doubles naman, 2 songs lang!! waaa! bitin ule!! pero kapag naglalaro na ako ng mga songs.. ang ganda ng quality ng music!! as in naririnig mo ung song kasi hindi masyado maingay ang environment.. wow! I love it! xD ayoko ung pwesto nya kasi nasa entrance mismo.. pero okay na rin kasi naririnig mo ng husto ung music, para feel mo sumayaw dun! xD sobrang saya talaga ng laro ko dun! one time, ittry ko ulet mag dmx dun kapag may pera ulit ako.. and baka gumawa ako ng character dun kapag walang naglalaro sa SC2 dun sa babang Tom’s! wala lang, gusto ko lang ma-experience para masaya! and I also noticed na may isang pang Tom’s World sa baba dun, malapit sa grocery naman.. pero walang dmx at SC2 arcade dun.. meron dun parang DDR, I forgot the others.. and my last stop, kumain ako sa NY Fries and Dips! na-mimiss ko kasi ang fries nila!! ang sarap kasi! ang ayaw ko lang dun sa napapaso ang dila ko after ko kumain kasi bagong luto ang fries, tapos mahal pa… so you have to have a huge amount of money kung gusto mo kumain dun and dapat dahan-dahan kumain, at handa ka ng maraming malamig na tumig just in case mapaso ang dila ko! 0.o oh well, I hope in the future makapunta ulit ako sa Festival Mall! xD

Protected: everthing’s changing this February..

Protected: new year, new changes.. again! =)

Ocean - first ever Furies character!

I’ve decided to make another character in Soul Calibur 2 arcade. Her name is Ocean and the character is Taki. Since mas magaling ako kay Taki kaysa kina Raphael at Xianghua, I think siya na ung lagi kong lalaruin! I was really impressed nung nasa beginner ranks pa siya (Newcomer - Infantryman), bihira lang ako matalo at madalas nakaka-perfect pa ako!! nakaabot pa nga sa 71% ang skill ko! wow!! I’m really good at using Taki! sobrang natuwa din ako nung naging Soldier na siya nung naka 144 wins na si Ocean! Mabilis pala maglevel kapag laging nanalo at konti lang ang nababawas sa HP ko! nung naglaro ulit ako nung naging Soldier na siya, naging Furies na siya! wow!! 9 pa lang ang losses ko, kasi ingat na ingat talaga ako at binibilisan ko magcombo.. Ginagawa ko rin madalas ung pandaraya na lumilipad siya at babagsak sa kalaban, malaki kasi ang bawas kapag natamaan siya nun! Aliw kasi! I also do the bomb explosion move, ung lilipad sa air ung klaban, para matamaan ko pa siya ng mga combo na knife and kicks!! I was inspired to make a Taki character dahil naka-record ako sa Time Attack Extreme, pang 4th pa nga ako dun! weee! xD ang dami nga nagchallenge sa akin nung magiging Soldier na si Ocean! grabe nga, buti na lang nanalo ako sa lahat! I hope maging Manticore siya pagdating General, and kapag Edgemaster na - maging Phoenix kung kakayanin! Basta go on using Ocean always at gagalingan ko sa mga Conquest battles! ;))

when Genis’ rank becomes Minotaur! :(

sobrang nagulat na lang ako nung naglaro ako ng Soul Calibur 2 arcade edition last Saturday (December 6).. pag-input ko ng name at password ni Genis, nakita ko agad na may 3 characters na tinira cya, and then, pinakita na naging Minotaur na xa!! aww, I guess Xianghua’s really a though character to level in Conquest! well, opinion ko lang un, kasi hindi naman ako ganun kagaling kay Xianghua.. kay Raphael lang talaga ako magaling.. I guess it takes 40% of your lose sa wins ng character mo para maging Minotaur at dapat nasa half lang ang lose mo sa wins, or may lower ng 50% ang lose mo.. so I guess, kailangan maging careful ako sa paggamit ng characters ko thsi time.. I really have to be fast sa pagcombo at tamang strategy & timing na rin!
