Currently listening to Vanilla by Gackt.

Okay, I spent most of my afternoon in front of TV. On MTV Asia on ANTeve, there was MTV Icon Janet Jackson. I love that show. I like how Macy Gray and Destiny's Child sang Janet's songs. Then on MetroTV right after, there was a Concert for Nobel Prize for Peace. Bon Jovi, Elton John, Natalie Cole, etc. It was nice too. Conclusion: I didn't study Psychodiagnostic VI. ^^;

*raises one eyebrow* Interesting Muraki+Oriya fanfiction by Shi Lin. I dunno. Muraki seems to bait even more twisted stories than Seishirou-san, ne? *sweatdrops*
Hmm... Miki Shinichirou-sama... And this is the home of the great Koyasu Takehito shrine, Monochrome, too!

A challenge on a mailing list:
Challenge #8: Make a short poem with 'time' as its theme. No more than 5 lines.

Response:

Understand the consequences, don't you?

Elyse darling, the drama special is only about... 75 minutes or so. And mine's in VCD format. You remember Danu/Yoshida Kenji on Animanga? He provided the drama special for us. And yes, of course Harley has it. XD XD XD Ask him about it. ~__^
Ne, shall we create an Anti-Shiori Front or something? XD I really need to capture a shot of her for you. Gomen! I'd do it ASAP! IINM, the drama series contain of 4 seasons or something, added with this drama special. But we shouldn't compare the actor who plays Masumi with my beloved Koyasu-sama. *laughs* No other voice can be compared to him. And yes, it IS normal to fall in love with his voice. Hey, I go into hysterics everytime I see Koyasu on a new role. XD

Wai, congratulations for having Chobits published, Hikaru-chan! Chii is soooo cute! Another Sei-chan layout? *evil grin* Yes, I want to see, please? Pretty please? And do you want to see my upcoming layout (which wouldn't be up for the next 2 weeks, at least) too? I need beta viewers. ^^;

Ah, glad that you've get the scan, Kenchan. Now can I have it too? ^^;;; And about final exams, I still have 3 more! *sobs*
Let'sgetitoverwith... let'sgetitoverwith... *mutters endlessly*

Monday, June 4, 2001 // 05:06 a.m.

Currently listening to Sanctuary by Sakamoto Maaya.

Wai, wai! Another Maaya's song! ^___^

Had an interesting conversation about magazines, crews and otaku in general with a friend yesterday. *raises one eyebrow* Interesting. Never thought that I'd see backstabbing among the otaku community here.

*sweatdrops* Er... he has his own charm, believe me. ^^; His voice is very nice, and at least he's as tall as Masumi. ^^;;;; But you're right, overall the cast of Garasu no Kamen dorama is quite disappointing. The appropriate ones are Tsukikage Chigusa-sensei and Mizuki (Masumi's secretary). The actress who plays Mizuki is one heck of a cool woman. ^____^ But her hair is short, though, unlike the manga Mizuki. Oh yeah, I'd capture the shot for you if I have the time, so you can see that Maya (Adachi Yumi) is much prettier than Ayumi. *sweatdrops* And Sakurakouji Yuu is not as handsome as the manga either. Well, if there's anything that I love about the dorama, it's the music and the storyline. XD From what I've seen so far on the Drama Special (haven't seen the rest), Masumi and Maya have confessed to each other. And a friend said that Hayami Eisuke actually approves of them. *very happy* Go to hell, Shiori! One more thing, Shiori on the drama is a BITCH with all capital letters. *growls* And you know what she does to Masumi on the end of the drama special? SPOILER: she actually STABS Masumi because he breaks their engagement! Masumi is running to meet Maya to give her the bouquet of murasaki no bara, and right after he admits his love, Shiori stabs him from the back. *starts to chantKILLKILLKILLKILL* The drama special ends with Maya kissing Masumi, and Masumi wakes up from his coma XD. I don't know the continuation, though. ;_;

Wah, gomen ne... I couldn't get the 06.jpg either. ;_; And about that Seishirou/Subaru pic, it's on November ASUKA as a two-pages spread and a four-pages poster. Garnet-chan has it, but I think she leaves it in Indonesia. ^^;

Mia! Happy belated birthday! Sorry for saying it late.

0_o The drama version of Hana Yori Dango? Don't ask me how I came across that log, it's a long story. ^^; But anyway, the drama version of HYD? *swoons* The actors who play Domyoji and Rui... *starry eyed* Keren... *mupeng* But I don't think this is a Japanese drama, because the ones who get hysterics are the fans in Taiwan. *laughs*

*d/l-ing mp3*

Sunday, June 3, 2001 // 03:32 p.m.

Currently listening to 1/2 by Kawamoto Makoto, the 2nd OP of Rurouni Kenshin.

I personally think the the OP clip for this song is the best OP of Rurouni Kenshin XD In the middle of the girls who love Kenshin, Sano, Aoshi or Hiko, I might sound weird. But my fave chara on RK are Saitou Hajime and Shishio Makoto. XD I bet everyone can see the pattern of the chara that I love. *points at the list of her fave chara on the right* Except for Lain, that is. But the patter of the rest is easily recognizable.

Just watched Garasu no Kamen drama special again.
Kitajima Maya Hayami Masumi Maya and Masumi, a destined meeting under the rain XD
Argh... Miuchi-sensei~~~~~~ Please continue Garasu no Kamen, please, please, please... ;_; I really want to know how it ends and whether Shiori would be dead or no. ¬_¬ If I had my way, I'd have that bitch got hit by a car or die because of her frail condition. XD The music of the drama is nice. But I only have Calling by B'z up until now. T__T Where to find them...

Pyschodiagnostic VI final exam next Tuesday. And I still couldn't believe what the lecturer said when we asked her if there's anything to be studied in particular.
"Just read the appendix."
What the... ¬_¬ Can't wait to graduate from this useless class.

My dear, the pics are free to take. XD But those were scanned by Garnet-chan, so ask her if you want to use them. BTW, can you do me a favour, please? A friend of mine is too lazy to take it one by one. Would you please zip it and u/l it again there? I'm glad Audrey has given you a space. ^___^ I'm sorry, but s-net is not mine, that's why I couldn't help you. And borrow some things? XD As long as you don't rob me clean off my artbooks, I wouldn't mind. In fact, I still have more or less 15 CDs of mine with a friend. XD *winks at Ayanami Eve*

-- Silver Wind
*opens her Psychodiagnostic VI textbook again*

Sunday, June 3, 2001 // 04:56 a.m.

Currently listening to Point of No Return by Chemistry.

Me and my big mouth. -_-;; I have to write a review about The Ring now. All of them, novel, manga, TV series, movies. That means I have to watch the movies? ;_; Damn. I'm going to watch it in broad daylight!

Oh, As-chan, if you're still looking for Memories, try it here. Hopefully, it's still there. And I haven't got Kuraki Mai's Double Rainbow yet... ;_;

Leareth, if we're talking about the same Jocelyn, then yes, she's a very good artist. I've still had some sketches of my original characters that she made. ~__^ That pic is gorgeous! I love Yue's expression there.

-- Silver Wind
*watches Kazemakase Tsukikage Ran or Argento Soma again?*

Saturday, June 2, 2001 // 08:31 p.m.

Currently listening to Jounetsu by KinKi Kids.

Nice song... And I also got the mp3 of SMAP's VEST. Yeah, I can tolerate SMAP pretty well, although I have to admit that I still like Arashi or Da Pump more. BTW, finally I saw Daft Punk's anime PV on MTV Asia today. Took you long enough to finally air it, guys!

And Silver Wing????? ^___^;;;;;;;;;; although I admit that it's kinda cute, my dear, I can't believe that you of all people still write it wrong sometimes. ^^;;;;; But yes, Umeda-sensei is so cool. However, I also like Minami. Ne, I bet Selene would be cheering wildly when she reads this. And so are you, Oey! *pointed look at Fasilkom UI*

What might 'some things' be, Kenchan? XD XD XD

Just skimming through the writers' challenges that one of my aniki sent me. Interesting. If I were a character on a fantasy world, what would I want to be? I think... I want to be a character like Deedlit. Yes, Deedlit from Record of Lodoss War. She's strong, brilliant, smart and a powerful mage. Or if it were a Riftwar universe, then I want to be like Pug. XD Wishful thinking.

Okay, I'd try to respond to one challenge here.
Challenge #1: Write a short story (no more than 75 words) telling about why a certain american superhero just doesn't fit living in Indonesia.

Response:
The man's face twisted into an angry frown as he studied the stack of financial reports in front of him. An elderly man in tuxedo suit polished his glasses behind him, glancing occassionally at his employer in sympathy.
"It seems that the profit of your company has decreased drastically, Sir," he said in concern, "But your employees seem to be a lot wealthier very suddenly, aren't they?"
"I know that, Alfred," he growled, massaging his temple to relieve the tension there, "I KNEW I shouldn't have moved Wayne Corporation to this goddamn country!"
The butler sighed, "Indeed," he murmured, "They can corrupt anything in any line of jobs, can't they?"

Yeah, I'm making fun of my own country. ^___^;; So there.

-- Silver Wind
*still reading the challenges*

Saturday, June 2, 2001 // 02:57 p.m.

Currently listening to Ring of Eternity by Amika Hattan, the c/w single of To The Light.

I'm confused. ;_; Should I use the layout I've made? My imouto said that it's too big, but my darling said it's okay. Argh... *swirly eyed* Oroooo...

A comic of my friend, Calista Takarai, has been published by jElex! Congrats, darling! And Takarai? XD That's the real family name of Laruku's Hyde. ^^; Garnet-chan, want me to buy it for you?

Yes, Elyse, very glad to read it. ^____^ *hugs* And yes, of course, I'd tell Harley to ICQ you sometime. ~__^

Actually, Nazo is one of my fave songs on Meitantei Conan too, Kenchan. I still love Natsu no Maboroshi and Truth: A Great Detective of Love more, though. ^^; And about Gravi #3-5, got it from a private ftp somewhere. One more reason for you to go to Terminal Dogma. *laughs*

Ano... Leareth, by reading that excerpt... you make me want to kill Nakuru here and now! And I like Nakuru! *twitches* So, it'd be good if you put it on Shadows, but if you continue further, I think I'd make a Nakuru voodoo doll and start stabbing it. ^^;

Wah, glad to hear it, Mia. ^___^ And tomorrow's your birthday? Waaai~~~!

0______o Dejiko... I don't know why, but DiGi Charat scares me. A lot. Maybe because of that cuteness overdosage?

-- Silver Wind
*replying mails*

Saturday, June 2, 2001 // 06:50 a.m.

Currently listening to Always by Kuraki Mai, from Meitantei Conan 5th movie, Count Down to Heaven.

Hmm, pretty cute song, but I still like Stand Up better. ^^; But I want to see Conan movies! ;_; I want to see all of them!

*stretches* Ah... finally it's weekend... I can rest... That is, if nothing would happen today... *death stares at the presidential palace* Don't even think about it, Gus.

Added two links. Finally my darling imouto has her log up. I suggest you don't use tripod though, Garnet-chan. The pics aren't showing. ;_;

Waaaaah! Nice Sakura Taisen pic! And it has the lyric of Always! *see upstairs*

Oh dammit... *looks at her own log* Looks like that s-net has a problem. Sorry, the pics aren't showing. ¬_¬ *blinks* Chotto~~~~ Hey, it works again! *the pictures are showing* -_-;; Thanks for giving me the panic attack... I'm showing the new layout to some reviewers. ^^; Hopefully they'd like it!

-- Silver Wind
*confused. So many things to do at once*

Friday, June 1, 2001 // 10:12 p.m.

Currently listening to Hearts by Nishihata Saori, the ED of Star Ocean EX.

Okay, anyone else haven't got that song? *points* D/l it here then! Special thanks to As-chan for u/l-ing it! ^____^

I've finished another layout for this log. ^_____^ But Seishirou-san would be up for at least another week or two. XD Or maybe a month. XD Depends on how much I've been hypnotized by those eyes.

Just watch Gravitation #3-5. Raw. *sweatdrops* Who cares. XD XD XD I love it! Thank you to my darling for d/l-ing them! ^____^ *hugs*

Ahem.
Starting next month, Silver Wind would be an official contributor for Animonster magazine! XD XD That means... I'm gonna get a monthly salary too. Not too much, but I hope it'd be enough to indulge several manga every month. XD After I got X OVA, of course. I'm going to be bankrupt because of it for several months. =P

*yawns* Nothing much to write here. Maybe tomorrow I'd have a rant or two up. Yes, about politic again. Yes, about our beloved president again.
...
Oh, the joy of living in Indonesia... -_-;;

*goes to sleep*

Friday, June 1, 2001 // 04:21 a.m.

Currently listening to The Last Wolf Suite from Rurouni Kenshin.

Probably the best instrumental piece on the whole RK... along with Kimi wa Dare wo Mamotte Iru and In Memories ~ A Boy Meets The Man (from the OVA).

Dammit! Gomen ne, Taryn! I can't seem to connect to ICQ! *kicks her provider* Damn you...

I finally finished my Health Psych assigments yesterday. It was interesting. I love dealing with the ethics of a profession. It's so... subjective ^^; but yet, it deals a lot with humanity.

Hmm... *not convinced* I'm a bit glad to hear it, Elyse. BTW, you do get the Seishirou pic I promised, right?

I haven't got the time to surf around L,C&P, Hikaru-chan! Gomen ne... I'd do it soon, I promise. Later tonight or tomorrow! And kill you? *laughs* Are you kidding me? The first time this layout was finished, I stared at the monitor for half an hour until my brother hit my head and brought me out of my trance. =P

*looks at the Seishirou pic again* Yup... watch out for the eyes. They're very hypnotic. v^^

Can't resist to put this pic again. ^^; So different from the one above, yes? =P

-- Silver Wind
*opening the Health Psych textbook again*

Friday, June 1, 2001 // 03:46 a.m.

Currently listening to Silent Wind by Sugai Eri, the OP of Argento Soma.

I'm going to write a long rambling regarding Argento Soma, so if you're not interested, just skip it. ^^;

I watched Argento Soma #10-11 last night instead of studying. And I just went speechless after finishing those two episodes. Dear God, would I be exaggerating if I say that Argento Soma is probably one of THE BEST anime series ever? It's not just about animation or music or character designs, but the quality of the story. And I want more, dammit! I want to see the ending! I want to see if Ryu would end up with Hattie! (O_o;; ... lolicon?)

+ Ryu Soma
Used to be known as Takuto Kaneshiro. This guy probably is one of the angstiest chara ever, along with His Eternal Angstiness #1 & 2, Kamui and Subaru. He's so obsessed with his dead (?) girlfriend, Maki. When he dreams about strangling (?) Hattie, Hattie turns back and he finds himself staring at Maki. And the way he laughs that very bitter laugh, oh man... And he's very very smart! Man, the other personnels of Funeral can only look at one another blankly when he recites the result of his research about G-4! He can get ideas to destroy aliens from even the simplest details. XD MacGyver, anyone? What I love about him in these eps, he's so like a kid when he's studying the details of the G-4 alien. He reverts back to be Takuto for an instant there. Then his reaction when Hattie looks at him. It's sooooo cute! But right on the next scene, when he realizes that he actually saves Frank instead of destroying the very thing who killed Maki... it really broke my heart to see his reaction. And his seiyuu! *worships Hoshi Souichirou* How could he laugh that hollow and bitter laugh so perfectly! I shiver everytime Ryu laughs!

+ Ginebia/Ginevia/Guinevere
Love this woman! She's so... normal, compared to the rest of Funeral. ^^; She's the voice of reason for them all, especially if Dan Simmons is starting to growl at Ryu. XD And the way that she says to Ryu that she and him are alike. Man, she's my fave female chara on Argento Soma, next to Hattie.

+ Harriet Bartholomew
Hattie. What can I say about her? She's actually very mysterious. What do we know about her? Apart from the fact that she can communicate with Frank? Does she share the same soul with Maki? Is she Maki?

+ That Mephisto-wannabe
And finally... the official antagonist of the series. XD Hell, I'm not sure yet if he really IS the antagonist. But dammit all, when he twists Ryu's arm easily and says that he's weak... Now that's COOL! I hate this guy, mind you, but I'd admit that he's such a cool devil. XD

I'm putting Ryu as one of my favorite chara now. XD He's cool, cute, VERY smart, angsty... what more can you ask for? =P For some people he probably looks like a freak, but as I said several times before, that scarred appearance actually makes him sexier. ^_____^

*looks at her rambling again* Nyahaha... I think this entry will qualify me as someone fully OBSESSED with Argento Soma. *is proud*

*Health Psych exam now!*

Currently listening to Gravitation OST.

*yawns*
I really need to do this Health Psych assignments quickly. ¬_¬;; Blah. At least this class was fun, unlike another class I took. -_-;;

And don't even ask how I did on my exam yesterday. ;_; I hate that. I think I'm going to have to take it again next term. -_-;;

0_o;;; *blinks repeatedly* Westlife is having a concert in Hogwarts? Gilderoy Lockhart is the manager? Does that mean Ronan Keating is Gilderoy Lockhart? XD XD XD Oh my, I don't know whether I should laugh maniacally or pity the boyband.

Oh, sure, Hikaru-chan! ^__^;; Who knows, I might get another title to obsess again. ^^

Very glad to hear it, Leareth! ^___^

Taryn, Therapy 4 would be great. But if you currently want to write TohmaxYuki/YukixTohma/whatever, hey, obey your impulse. ~__^ I'm sure anything you write would be great.

-- Silver Wind
*starts to do the assignments*

Wednesday, May 30, 2001 // 10:08 p.m.

Currently listening to HanaKimi 1st Drama CD.

*sighs* And a creature doesn't have enough social life that he/she had to clutter my guestbook with his/her entries. -_-;; Yes, I do know that those three entries were from the same person. Don't bother look. I've deleted them. But it's weird. He/she knows about me being a free-lance contributor in a local anime-manga magazine. *blinks* Who the hell...

Blah. Like I care.
Some people... -_-;;

Hikaru-chan! HanaKimi #15 would be out on June 15!

Elyse? Are you okay? Your latest entry...

I went to MTA today. And Joe! Damn you! *shakes fists threateningly* You said you were going to meet me today to talk about 'some things'! ¬_¬

I got Argento Soma #10-11! ^_______^ And Gravitation MP3! And finally get my Rurouni Kenshin MP3 CD back! *hugs the CD* I miss listening to Niji, the Fourth Avenue Cafe and Kimi wa Dare wo Mamotte Iru! A~~~nd, I have some new fanfics up on ff.net. Go and take a look.

*ROTFL* Naughty Shuuichi! XD But I wonder if I can take a peek... =P

Bwahahahahahahahahaha!!!!! XD XD XD XD Seishirou everywhere! Seishirou everywhere! Don't worry, I love yours. And I'm glad you use Seishirou too... *evil grin* Actually, I think as his fans, we should show our true colors. ~__^ 'Sides, it's different, right? That *points upstairs* is from Tokyo Babylon-days, as yours is from X. *eviiiiil griiiin* And you're a fan of S/S, right? Join NSK NOW! XD

Thank you! ^____^ Very glad you like it! And your brother's blog? *perks up* A guy who actually adores Seishirou and Subaru? That I have to see! ~__^

Yes, Seishirou looks so deliciously evil there. XD But I'm sorry to hear what happened, Leareth! Is there any possibility that you'd get your phone back? If it's in Indonesia, then the possibility is very close to zero, but since you're in Oz...

Darling, I do know that your name is Elyse, but I think I'm just too used of calling you Lisette ^^; Okay, I'm calling you Elyse now. See? ~__^ *points to the links* I've changed your name there too! XD ElyseElyseElyseElyse *sweatdrops* I have to get used to this again. ^_^;

Iyaaaaa... thanks deh. Tadi gue di rumah Sentinel kok pas baca log lu. Jadi dia juga udah liat. Nanti katanya dia mau kontak elu via ICQ tuh. Nyahahaha...
/Indonesian
Yes, yes... I'd u/l the pic first thing tomorrow morning for you. It's 485 kb. Anyone else want the pic? I'd post the URL here if anyone else beside Elyse wants it.

0_o;; I'm member number 13? Cool, though. XD

Wednesday, May 30, 2001 // 04:44 a.m.

Currently listening to Best I Ever Had by Vertical Horizon.

XD XD XD Arigatou na, Kenchan! I LOVE this song!

Okay, so how is it? *points upstairs* Disappointing? Scary? Sexy? Comments? And to quote Selene, no one's going to notice how sloppy I am in editing that picture, okay? *sweatdrops* The quote is from a song by L'Arc~en~Ciel, Shout At The Devil. And if you ever see their live performances, Hyde usually wears some cute little devil wings when he sings this. *grins* I love it, because it's one of the 'harder' Laruku songs.

I was going to go with my darling today. But there's going to be a parliament meeting today. What the hell... I have to meet Joe from Animonster too. He said he wants to talk about 'some things' with me. *raises eyebrow* Define 'some things', please.

I like these guys! ~__^ And one of them is going to UI too! Wah, this might sound silly, but I've never met any UI student who has a log too before. ^__^;

Audrey, hope you like this. Hope your mom likes this layout too! ^^;

Oh, that's too bad, Hikaru-chan. Because Harlem Beat and Slam Dunk are so popular here, so I'm curious if Indonesians would love I'll too. *thinks* Then again, Indonesians love all sport manga... From Offside, Shoot! to The Pitcher... Anyway, if you want to write a summary for me, it'd be really nice. ^___^ Yes, I would love that! Thank you! And speaking of HanaKimi layout, my imouto's log (WHEN she has it up, that is... *stares at Mel*) would feature HanaKimi too. ~__^

Hey, each to her own *laughs* If Ndari-jochan read what I said about her beloved X-Japan, she'd hit me with a mallet. Well, at least I didn't say anything about Yoshiki... WHOM I think is really cool. And about your leg, you DO hear what the doctor says, right? And you DO obey him, right? ^^; Get better soon, ne?

Leareth, can't wait to read the YnM fic. I think the excerpt you put there is really cute. ~__^

Lisette, I might sound like an idiot, but what's the password for Anime Kingdom's Streamload account? Don't look at me, my darling asked that. Would you tell him, please?

Okay, I have to get prepared in a 10 minutes. Yo, hello, final exams. ;_;
