Anime Madnezz

I have made several posts for this blog but then I suddenly realized that I forgot to post about certain things that I really would love to share. My favorites, obssessions and the like. And more importantly, things about God. hehe..I am not really that "santa" or should I say....I am never a santa...lol...but then, I really do believe that there's that God who really exist and other things related to that...Anyway, enough of that right now because that will not be my topic for this post.

What's it gonna be?..Oh well, nothing interesting...just some thing called "Anime"... weeeee... :D

Anime. What's so fuzy about this stuff? Why is it that more and more are being enticed to this "magical" world of anime? If you think that anime are for kids...well, think again...It is most likely that anime are for young adults, teens and even "adults" drown themselves with all or most of the fascinating things concerning anime. In fact, adults are the ones who really spend a lot when it comes to having the latest craze in anime...Or maybe it's because anime had been way established that "teens of the pasts" have grown and beoame "adults of the future"..who are still "addicted" to anime.

Honestly, I am one of them. I just find anime so cool whatever other "mature" people would say. My mom would always scold me telling me that it's not one thing that a "girl" should indulge with. Yeah, I am a girl. As they may see it...lol..nevermind.

Anyway, there had been so many issues regarding this fast-spreading and immortal topic - the ANIME. Word-of-mouth is not just the one that keeps it alive just like any other tv shows. Its artistic presentation (colorful wardrobes, impossible characters, twisted storylines, indescribable settings and many more) is the real catch. People or teens/young adults perhaps, just love to fantasized and dream on. Either to amuse themselves or merely to escape this world full of crap. But nevertheless, anime really can take off your troubles away. Maybe there are some times that if you're too addicted with anime, you'd feel more 'wanting" if the episodes are still not up rolling..(juts like me..so pissed when it takes so long to have the upcoming episodes being aired or for the latest manga episodes to be read...:D). I think this also goes with other stuffs that we tend to anticipate. ;)

I have read from so many forums and other websites certain discussions about "anime versus cartoons", "people watching anime dont have a life, immature, hopeless, etc." that are just so endless and keeps on bugging the "anime society". People would fight and curse each other just to defend their side. But for me, there's nothing to argue with. Just mind you own business. If you like cartoons better than anime or vice versa, so be it. Just patronize what you like without spitting unto the likes of others or those who dont like what you like...(kewl?!..yeah!...lol)

"Do unto others what you want others would do unto you." :D
(that's my way of being...a ninja?..lol...just my way of being fair and respectful.. :P)


(additional and more informative post about anime will come just its way...when's it gonna be?..hmmm..that I am not sure of...lol...dont worry..it wont take me a month or so to post again..hopefully...hahahaahah :P)

In Sickness...and In Health... x_x


Aargh!...Sick?..Again?..oh C'mon!

This past two weeks had been a nightmare for me.
I cant totally focus with my work since I was suffering from different types of "disturbances".
Those that I really hate to have or experience. Am I being tested?..Holy Crap!..tsk3!

When I was still working on a nightshift, I barely made absences or never did, if the reason was just "sickness". I had always been able to manage myself even if I feel a little bit sick. Nothing had ever stopped me to go to work..when I was still on that shift. Many people had even noticed that I "ballooned" during nightshift... They said my body system favors the nocturnal effect.

Well, thats something I'm not really sure of whether I'm supposed to be happy hearing that.
I didnt have a "quality" sleep during the day when I was suppose to because it is really tiring working during nightshift. And although I cant sleep at the office during our break or I barely slept in the office during work hours and still can manage, I know its not good especially to my health.

For me, that "ballooning effect" was somehow brought about by stress or fatigue, as I was able to read from a health news/article. It's also like when people eat when they're depressed. It's either I also have eaten too much (Binging on "low-quality or inappropriate" foods) during nightshift or I slept too much to avoid getting sleepy at work. Either ways, being on a nightshift is no longer my problem since I got the chance to transfer back to the dayshift (just the time when I had lose the excitement of transferring..tsk!).

My first two weeks, as I have said were just so disastrous. Toothache!...waaaaa!...I'd rather have flu. Or anything except toothache!...whoah@!

It had always been my problem..having such "not that strong" set of teeth. Although Dentists would tell me that I have a very good tooth formation or alignment, still, cavities could just work out in ways we never think it could.

And thats just killing me... It's as if all the weight of the world is over me...Feeling all its burdens..pfft! I just cant take so much of the pain anymore. And sometimes, from all the pain that I was able to encounter because of this toothache, I started to feel numb and medicines can no longer ease the pain. Imagine having to induce all that "head-wrecking" pain!

Aside from that, due to the very cold atmosphere in the office..or maybe just to where my workstation is located, my toothache had its sidekick!..Another driving force towards destructive pain..waaaaaaa! I am not really prone to coldness. I might die..huhuhu..just cant stand any coldness that's way beyond what my natural temp. could withstand. i am more of a 'heat" or warmness person.. I'd prefer to feel hot...lol...nevermind..hahaha

With all the abnormalities I feel concerning temperature, I system started to react and then again, revived the "sickness mode" thats way deeply buried inside of me. I now have a flu!...Great!..Just what more can i ask for?..lol

Severe cough..with sticky phlegm irritating my throat that also makes my chest and back ache, running nose/colds...arrrgh....haaaayz!...And with all the medz I'm taking..I just cant help but drown myself in a slumber effect...Drowsiness and uneasiness makes me irritated and out of mood to work effectively..

I just keep thinking of my bed...wohooo!..And although I've had several absences, Ouch! I just wish to take a vacation...oh my...tsk3!...if only...

Even if I am sick, I still prefere "self-medication" through water therapy...and of course, rest rest rest...if possible...but my very concerned mom keet on insisting that I go to a clinic and let the doctors check my condition. I really had a hard time arguing with her that I need not to...reason: I am "allergic" to hospitals or clinic, it's costly and I dont want to be late or make absences..anymore. :D

But then, I realized, that if somethings may just get worst, it would even cost me much...so I just agreed, with a less heart...lol

Fortunately, there was nothing to worry with my lungs nor with my blood. Wohoo! But I have to take some "more" medications" to really make it all go away..And the most exciting yet terrifying part for me...is...the tooth extraction...OMG!..not again? I dont have much teeth left...waaaaaaaaaaa...lol

Oh well...i just made this post to "kill the time" and put out my "ill" feelings.. As Mark B. had said unto me.."just post anything, especially something that have connections to your feelings..just pour it out..and Im sure you'll feel good.."..weeee!

"Frank"ly Speaking....

It's been so long since I made a post for this blog.. Whew!...

And this "comeback" post is some sort of a reminiscing act... lol

This happening is something that I am not happy to remember. But I will be sharing this to you as I have learned a lot from this experience and I hope that you will, too. This event was some kind of an "eye-opener" or life and even soul for the most. If people involved in this experience werent able to get anything essential from all that happened, well..Good Luck!..lol

Having to think back again what happened to me and my family and other people during the time that the typhoon "frank" raided our locality or the whole Panay Island, is really something that could break my heart making me wish or pray that somehow, hopefully, it wont happen again... :(

It's been...a month or so (forgot about the date...I am not really good at remembering those :P) since "Frank" striked Philippines-Western Visayas-Panay Island-Iloilo City. But traces of its life-wrecking impacts can still be seen in some parts of the greatly hit places. Although some places have been cleaned, muds removed and damages (from the properties, etc.) have been trashed or made use again if need be, still, the smell of the burden and worry in people's lives are just too much to handle. Many people are still staying in some evacuation centers. Most of the residential properties have been damaged and for the worst have been totally ripped off. Many baranggay from the provinces have been wiped or flashed out of the scene changing most of the geographical features of those places. :( Just imagine how many people have been flushed away by the flood together with their houses. Many people died since this typhoon was not really taken seriously. Especially in our place, Jaro, where people never anticipated that "that kind of tragedy" will occur. But who knows? No one. Nobody could ever predict what's to happen.

The typhoon brought about a terrifying flash flood. Something that had made the great impacts in our lives. Our locality never had the experience of such flash flood ever. That is why the residents were still confident of not leaving their houses as they never thought such a thing was possible to happen. Why such a nightmare? Well, for me, it's not something that we should be shocked about.

With these days where people are just so annoying taking things for granted especially Mother Nature, any disaster that nature can give us is not that impossible. Global warming, carelessly cutting out trees in the forest with reforestation and the like were just the reasons why that flash flood was triggered. Most of the flood and of course, the nerve-cracking muds were from the forests or mountains from the provinces which had no more or less trees or barriers to hold on to the eroding soil or mudslides.

Imagine having a flash flood were 40% or up was consisted of mud! Many of our clothes, books and other stuffs have been covered with mud especially our house. Well, lucky for us to have minimal damages as compared to other people especially to those who have so many valuable things in their houses (the rich people, that is) that they were not able to save. many thanks to my "girl scout" mom, too. She had always been so prepared. Wohoo! :D But still, we had to leave our house since the water was rising up to the level that people never thought of to have gone that far.

(lawig na bah...lol...cut ko bala anay...sa part2 nlng ang sugpon...haha :P)

Be Just Who You Are and Be Proud ^_^

Have you ever thought of what your life would be like
if you were a different person as you are right now?

Dont you ever wish you were someone else? Did you?

Are you contented with what you are right now?
With what you have and tend to give?

Do you always have thoughts of the future?
Of what you will become, where to go and what to have?

Are you good enough as compared to others?

Do you think you are special? That you can be?

Do you know what to do with your life?

You think you have found your purpose?

In what way do you tend to live your life?
Do you spend the days of your life to the fullest?

Were you happy?..Always or never?

Do you think love is stupid?

People are outageous and pathetic? Obnoxious and fools?

Do you love what you are? Do you care what others think of you?

*************************************************************

Oh well, so many questions. Things that could just
confuse you or rattle your mind of whether these applies to you.
But I do believe that in order to assess yourself,
you should ask. You know, to try to weigh things up.
And to measure how you react to these kind of inquiries.

These questions trouble me sometimes in ways I just
couldnt explain. They would just pop out of my head.
And whether or not I may be able to sort these out,
it doesnt matter. Well, actually, it does matter.
It's just that I dont usually dwell on these kind of things
even if I tend to catch myself getting drowned from all these.

All or most of these questions, things interrelated to it
can just in one way or another either change your life
if you have been moved by thoughts of it...
or bug not only your thoughts but the way you face your life
after realizing if you really found your true meaning.

The prime reason why I thought of having this to post
is the impact (well, not so great impact but there's something that had
just moved me..hehe) that I got and felt from a song
sung by Natasha Bedingfield (her songs are just exceptional..haha
and I am really starting to like her...haha)
It is entitled "Freckles" and hope you like it.

Nevermind the video...they're just bunches of her photos...
Just load it and listen to the song...It's cool...hehe x_x



FRECKLES - Natasha Bedingfield

I used to care so much about what others think about
Almost didn't have a thought of my own
The slightest remark would make me embark
On the journey of self doubt
But that was a while ago
This girl has got stronger
If I knew then what I know now
I would have told myself don't worry any longer it's okay

Cause a face without freckles is like a sky without stars
Why waste a second not loving who you are
Those little imperfections make you beautiful, lovable, valuable,
They show your personality inside your heart
Reflecting who you are

Who you are
Who you are
Who you are

I wondered if I could trade my body with somebody else in magazines
With the whole world full at my feet
I phantom worthy and would blame my failures on the ugliness I could see
When the mirror looked at me
Sometimes I feel like the little girl who doesn't belong in her own world
But I'm getting better
And I'm reminding myself

Cause a face without freckles is a sky without stars
Why waste a second not loving who you are
Those little imperfections make you beautiful, lovable, valuable,
They show your personality inside your heart
Reflecting who you are

Reflecting who you are
Reflecting who you are
Hmmm
Whoooooo whoa hmmmm oooooo

Cause a face without freckles is a sky without stars
Why waste a second not loving who you are
Those little imperfections make you beautiful, lovable, valuable,
They show your personality inside your heart
Reflecting who you are

Against All Odds... x_X

I am sick...so sick...bohooo!...I dont really feel well and yet here I am trying to put up something just to make it up to this long-been-taken-for granted blog... ;)

Right now, my mind's really a blur and I just cant think of anything that's kind of useful to share with.... Something with a substance, that is...My creative juices arent just flowing and I can barely utter a word due to my sorethroat...huhuhu... :(

But there's something that's been bugging me concerning "blogs"...Doing or making up a blog....and how it relates to men and women. I am really so curious...and to patch things up...I just tried to put them up in questions...not giving myself a hard time thinking what is it really that's been buzzing through my brain...

If some of you can just explain or have your reactions on these, better be specific and clear in explaining both of the sides. The positive and the negative of course. Biased folks are not allowed...Just kidding...It'll be so much fun I think... x_x

1. Who are more subjective and/or objective when it comes to their posts/topics on their blogs?

2. Do women bloggers always pour out their emotions and even their souls to their blogs?

3. Do you have to be emotional or passionate just to accomplished managing your blogs?

4. Are men bloggers fond of copying other folks' contents not to mention those who are paid to post or review posts or things things like that?

5. Are men bloggers, mostly that is,...just copying other folks' contents?

6. What are the top 3 things or topics do men and women cater to their blogs?

7. Who are more explicit, mature, realistic, consistent, open-minded, vocal, honest and convincing with their blogs? Men or women?

8. Are women bloggers greater in number than men bloggers? Does it matter?

9. Who are more effetive bloggers?

10. Is it cool to have a lot of blogs?...One from here, another there...and so on... :>
