...But now I understand that that was a major misunderstanding.
So, after doing my research, I discovered so many things that I thought was interesting. Ladies, this post is especially made to share with you all the data that I found.

Shizu-chan! Happy Birthday~!
Wahaha, this date is Shizuo's birthdate. He's also one of my "Watashi no Ai"s in the series so of course I'm gonna have to do something as a tribute to him.
Oh, but then there's also the International Women's day coming up in March. Hmm...
I know! Why not mash the two together! ( 0 3 0)
And so, with that being said, here is what was created by moi:
(Click picture to enlarge)
Yes, I know (s)he's a bit off character. BUT WHATEVER!
At least it turned out better than the Kid!Shizuo I drew.
Making the above was a trip filled will a whole lot of bumps on the road. See that small circle-oval thing under his lips, yeah well, the colour pencil lead broke right there and I had to improvise since it wouldn't rub off. And then there's smudges all over the damn page. It was an off day for me - the camera wasn't helping much either. (= A = )
WHY IS MY FAVOURITE CHARA SO HARD TO DRAW! TAT /sobs
Anyways.
Happy Birthday Shizuo! I love you. (´ ▽｀).。ｏ♡

Spending time away..
I'm off to spend the weekend+today at my grandmother's. I promised her I'd visit her on Thursday, but something came up (+me moping around).
I guess it's best to spend some time away from the net. Get my mind off the unfortunate experience.
Plus, I had a dream about her the past Wednesday. Maybe my subconscious self wants to see her so it sends me a message.
And then there's the opportunity to talk to her about what happened when the Japs came to Malaysia. Apparently, she remembers most things.
So... bye? ( ・_・)ノ

I told my mother about the scam. She took it well - surprisingly. While I, didn't.
The guilt I felt was overwhelming. The fact that I made my mother lose such an amount of money. Money that could be used to fund her and the family's living expenses.
She was mellow about it. But I felt that I deserved something as punishment. So, my subconscious self sabotaged me, torturing me and my thoughts and made me suffer. Nah, I'm just being dramatic. Basically, I just strangled myself with words like "YOU'RE AN IDIOT".
She said that we'll have to report to the minister of something something.
And all I said was Okay.
This scam thing is the worst thing anyone ever did to me. I'm soft! I'll believe most things you say. So don't lie to me! \( > A < )/
I don't have an appetite, my stomach feels so sick, my heart feels as if it's chained to a 50kg weight. I can't do much anymore and I keep getting stuck in a daze.
Tasukete... （ｉ^ｉ）

Down in the Dumps...
Moped around all day today - well mostly. I'm just so bummed out about the scam I've fallen for. The disappointment is more than my heart could take.
And the worse part is that it wasn't my money that got robbed but my mother's. I would've mind less if I was the only one involved. But tricking me and my mother? Crushing the hopes of a kid? That's just crossing the line. How heartless can you get?
Allow me to be dramatic for this post, please. That's the only way I'll get by. =_=
I don't know what to do anymore. Even KanzentaiCell's cover of Tsukema Tsukeru wasn't enough to lift my spirits up. Neither did Na-chan from UtaPri. I couldn't even move on to watching the second ep of the series. +_+
Usually when my heart is burdened, I lie down on a bed - any bed - and cover my head with a pillow. Then, I'll drift into sleep. It may take two hours, it may take 15 minutes... but when I wake up, I'll have to face my troubles head on. And if I feel as if I'm not ready, I would always lie back down and close my eyes.. and just escape everything.
The thing that frustrates me more than actually being scammed is that I actually suspected something. I knew something was up. But I denied my senses. I refused to believe in my intuition. I guess a woman(?)'s intuition is never wrong afterall - and this is what I get for doubting that.
I guess I'm just being tested. C'est la vie, I guess?

AFKL SCAM.
AFKL - Anime Fiesta Kuala Lumpur. The biggest piece of BS I have ever heard of.
AND YET I STILL FALL FOR IT. GARRGGGHH! (╯`Д´）╯︵ ┻━┻
My mother bought me three of the Superpass-es as thanks for helping her transcribe her audio file thingy. Cost her RM158 in total (plus the shipping fees).
I was so excited. My heart was fluttering, and my eyes were sparkling for three days straight. But for some reason... something didn't feel quite right.
Now, from the beginning, I had suspicious feelings towards this event. With it's outrageous claims about bringing Hatsune Miku and whatnot, it didn't seem very realistic... However, I brushed the suspicions away.
I was never interested in the Miku concert because although I am a vocaloid fan, I'm not very much into concerts. That's why I didn't pay attention to the ticket prices for the concert. The only thing I did pay attention to was to the Superpass.
What attracted me to the event was the fact that they were using 4 halls at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Center (KLCC). That made me very much excited, because I went to last year's Comic Fiesta which had 2 halls. Imagine what it would be like with double of that?!
And so, I was blinded by their false claim.
I believed. I hoped and held faith. But now... my dreams... everything...crushed.
Fck you, scammers. FCK YOU. 凸(｀⌒´メ)凸

Birthday Scenario - APH style!
Found this really awesome birthday scenario from here.
Behold!
(Source: Link)
So apparently, based on the above scenarios, my birthday tells me that I am planning world domination with none other than this guy!:
Don't underestimate Tino, guys. He's a pretty badass country that could very much beat your sorry ass if he wanted to. >D
(Source: Link)
The world shall be ours in no time! Muahhaha! ψ(｀∇´)ψ
I did a bunch of other people's birthday too. For example, Fafrina-chan is apparently the slave of Eygypt (0_0) and Musheeroom is in fact, the sibling of Romano! So... Italy?
But there's one birthday that I find myself really envious of... and that, would be my youngest sister. According to the birthday scenario chart-thing above, my little sister is married to ....PRUSSIA.

Oh, look what we have here...?
I've been browsing mangafox.com today since there's nothing to do besides homework and writing that needs finishing. Look what I found..
Apparently, there's a manga with a tittle that's similar to my username.
It's a oneshot written by Kano Yasuhiro-sensei about a guy named Jean(?), a sole heir of a mountain of fortune and even a big ol' mansion, who experiences the same scene over again for a whole hundred times - the scene being his own death. Tired of dying for the umpteenth time, he grows determined to get himself out of this endless loop.
Well, that's more less what the synopsis would look like.
[Anything below may contain spoilers. Beware]
The manga starts with an amount of gore; blood, daggers, grunts, thing like that. Then slowly progresses into the plot. We meet two more characters and learn about the 5 baddies who used to be Jean's buddies.
Personally, I think the art was a 6/10. Okay, maybe a 7.2 because of this:
A---nyways!
The plot was... eh. No offense, but it wasn't all that compelling. The general idea was great, don't get me wrong! It's just that the way the mangaka pulled it off wasn't very good. A manga like this needs more depth and it seems that Kano-sensei couldn't make it happen with just a oneshot.
The real culprit behind the baddies was fairly predictable. Guess who did it?
[-SPOILER-]
Surprise, surprise! The butler did it! ヽ(ー_ー )ノ
The ending didn't struck me in awe, but... as cheesy as it is, I appreciate the hint of romance the mangaka incorporated into it. All in all, I give the manga a 3.8/5.

Transcribing audio is hard..!
I've been away from the Internet for a while now because of reasons. One of them, is that I had to help my mother with a project her office handed her. Well, to be exact, they didn't hand her the project - she volunteered for it. She heard "TRANSLATE" instead of "TRANSCRIBE". The problem was that her previous tasks in things like these was to translate the audio/files, not transcribe them. In fact, she has never transcribed anything (probably) in her life.
So, burdened by the heavy task, she seeks the help of her daughter (me). Now, I was busy enough with school and co-curriculum activities and homework(which I had yet to do). I declined because it was such a drag to do something like that. But then she mentioned the pay - RM350.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not a mercenary!(-ish)
It's just that with all the ACG conventions that I've discovered, I need to save up money for me to go there. This is for my passion of my objects of interest! It's a must, I tell you!
Besides, what's wrong with wanting to earn money? At least I'm doing it the legal way. And it's for a(semi) good reason.
So I took up the offer.
I thought it was a piece of cake by what my mother said. "Just write down what you listen"
But boy, was she wrong..
Transcribing audio messes your mind, screws your mentality, and ruins you in more ways than one. With some help from Musheeroom, after about 5 days of torture, the 2-hour long audio file was finally transcribed. I don't know what would happen if not for her help.
The audio had about 9 people having a discussion about car models and bla bla bla. I swear, I'm never buying any of the cars they mentioned.
I repeated the audio file so many times that my insides were bubbling and I wanted to puke. Officially. Sick. Of cars. =A=
Somewhere halfway, I got kinda lazy so I did a half-assed job and just wrote whatever I heard without caring to recheck. But towards the end, I found out that I could, in fact, download the file and play it in window's media player. That made things one hell of a lot more easier so the transcription was better then. I didn't bother to recheck, though. Because I was already two days late. But I blame that on my mother's behalf of not telling me about the deadline.
I don't know if I'm going to do something like this again anytime soon. Granted, the pay is high, but it takes precision and accuracy, commitment and dedication, focus and patience. All of which I'm not sure I posses.
BUT! There was something good that came out from all the struggle!....
I'm going to Anime Fiesta! Woot!
With the Superpass at that! ☆*:.｡. o(≧▽≦)o .｡.:*☆

Tokyo Boys and Girls :: Review!
So I've actually read and finished Tokyo Boys and Girls yesterday. Really didn't think I'd read it since I've been putting it off for like, two whole years.
I quite like it. Although, the ending wasn't all that great, in my opinion.
The manga is about this girl, Mimori - I think- who goes to this school in -yes, you guessed it- Tokyo. She's in the same class as Nana and later becomes friends with her. Across their classroom, is the guy's classroom which is where Kuniyasu and his buddy, Ran.
I don't remember when, but somewhere in the manga's earlier pages, Mimori meets this guy who (spoiler) turns out to be her friend as kids - but she doesn't know that yet. The guy, Haruta, had a dramatic change from being the sissy girly weak kid from back then into the new handsome delinquent-type guy he is now.
Haruta suspects that Mimori was indeed the Kosaka Mimori from back then and swore to her that he'd get his revenge. The story then shifts into gear with Mimori trying to figure out what he means by that.
Then there's the love triangle with all the characters like so:
[May contain spoilers?]
Ran, Kuniyasu's friend likes Nana. However, Nana likes Kuniyasu who has a liking towards Mimori who only has feelings (later in the manga) for Harutawho is a huge idiot.
I hate how at first, I'm all for Haruta. But then he has one of his ignorant moments and runs off. So Kuniyasu comes by and he gets to working his heartthrob magic all over the damn manga pages. And the bad part is that I actually fall for his magic! I actually want to see him get the girl sometimes. But of course, the hero won't let that and then he uses one of his cute-moment bombs at me and wins my vote. This happens a lot - especially in the 4-5th volumes.
My feelings towards the characters:
I generally like Mimori. Unlike some of a few female leads in shoujo manga, this one isn't an airhead with big sparkly eyes. She's got a decent personality and is fairly likable.
As for her friend, Nana... well... let's just say that I don't like her all that much. Reason?
Well, I feel bad for Ran since she practically just shoves him off so easily.
If I had to rank the guys, I'd say that on a scale of one to ten, Ran gets an 8.7 for being such a sweetheart, Kuniyasu gets a 6 for being somewhat of a romantic - 4 marks deducted because he's used to it and I can't read his mind - and as for Haruta, I give his a 7 because he has his cute moments - 3 marks lost because of his ignorance.
The art is pretty good - very pleasing to the eyes. Though, sometimes the proportions gets a little unrealistic. For example, somewhere in the 4-5th volume, Haruta was watering a plant and his legs were 2/3 of his whole body. But that doesn't happen very often so it's all good. The guys have pretty awesome looks too, so that's a plus!
All in all, I give this manga a 4.6/5
Recommended for readers who enjoy reading the following:
Shoujo, Romantic Comedy, School Life, and a touch of Drama.

Toppo!
Let me tell you a story. A story so irrelevant to anything that you just couldn't care less; A story that pinpoints nothing important going on in the world; A story of utter ridiculousness.
This is a story of how I met Toppo.
