In case you didn't know, the subject of this entry is intended to sync up with the bass drum intro of "Baby Don't Go," which ties into exactly what this entry is about. Exactly. Youtube. Search "Apollo Casey" Or Search "Apollo" and then look, wait no, scratch that. Search "UCR Apollo" then look for "Casey's Performance." Or not and continue with what you were doing, which coincidentally or ironically or incidentally, is reading livejournal entries. Bye for now, Bye for now, Bye for now, Bye for now. | | 12:16 am |
One day and a half old
I would love to introduce you to Aiven Mario Aggabao.   Straight from my phone to your face. | | Tuesday, January 8th, 2008 | | 12:44 pm |
Apollo Night
Apollo (sp?) Night. This Friday. 8pm? I think. What date is it... January 11th. I think. 2008. $11 Admission I think. The University Theater I believe. Many acts. One winner. Good N'Plenty'O'Losers. Casey Campbell composed a Hip-Hop tune called "Bitter." We're performing it in a short medley. I believe we're after intermission. Casey Campbell using his happy feet and vocal chords, David Sides on keyboard chords, Edmond Aggabao on kit, Kristen Something on bass, and much, much more. Okay, in reality, our act will have 10 people. Instrumentals: keyboard, drums, bass, violin. Casey Campbell will be singing and dancing, and there will be a backup vocalist and backup dancers... It's gonna be a whole production. I hear it sells out. I think it'll be fun. Cheer for us because if they boo, I will just lay my sticks down, as well as my body, curl up in the fetal, and cry cry cry baby bye bye bye. Maybe the audience will think it's a comedic performance and they'll boo and laugh. Boo and laugh, laffy taff, write a rough draft before the final draft, scrubs zach braff, down the river on the raft down that shaft. That's not the performance. I promise. COME! | | Saturday, December 8th, 2007 | | 3:16 pm |
Tonight, Tonight
Hear ye, hear ye. Come one, come all. Have fun, have a ball. Fast times at Ridgemont High, an event tonight draws nigh. You are hereby granted an invitation to an event worth seeing, or should I say hearing, haha nope. The University of California at Riverside presents the University of California at Riverside Wind Ensemble, featuring, well not featuring, but including a limited participation by yours sadly, Edmond Aggabao. Come one and come all and see this Christmas Music Extravagant. Za. Tell your friends and call your family. Let your favorite Olive Garden waiter or waitress know of this humongous event. Facebook your old basketball coaches and myspace your old high school remedial science teachers. Email your pimps and text your hoes because anyone who is everyone must see this concert of the year. You'll be hearing Christmas music up your beehive at this monumental, trademark-making, gargantuan piece of life. Is anyone here an editor of high school history books? Well you're about to get very busy, because you're going to have to cross out "invention of steam boat" and make room for "invention of the greatest night since the invention of the steam boat." Sorry Eli Whitney. Wait no he did the cotton gin. Sorry Whitney Houston. Wait no she sang "I will always love you." The correct answer is: Robert Fulton. Or was it John Fitch? The internet is awesome. I present you interesting facts about steam navigation in a boring fashion to inevitably divulge that WHO CARES. It's tonight that will turn the rubber tires of history. UC Riverside encourages you to use your obviously years-old student IDs to get the discount of $2, and pay $8 instead of $10. If you're like me, perhaps you threw away your ID or cut it in twain out of frustration because your major isn't a "related field". In which case, sneak in, or pay $10. Think of it as "well, at least it's not $12" OR "The ticket is usually $20, but it's 50% off for tonight. 50% off! Can you believe it? That's like as much as that last sale at Kohl's. We should definitely go. Now." 7pm. University Theater. Christmas Music. Brass, Winds, Percussion. And a Harp. Oh ya and a narrator. No strings. Poor strings. You won't want to miss this; but if you do, you'll probably be okay. | | Friday, December 8th, 2006 | | 8:36 pm |
This is his story
Emmanuel John Davis Aggabao, or as most everyone calls him, Jr (pronounced Junior), was born on October 13, 2003 in Orange County, CA. He spent his early years in many places: Orange County, Moreno Valley, Hemet, San Jacinto, and more. He was abducted by his mother on January 1, 2006. They disappeared, not a trace at all. Needless to say, there were many tears, much anticipation, no patience, lack of hope, and searching searching searching. ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... Ladies and Gentlemen, he's back. I don't know all the details, but the investigator who had been assigned to the search found him. In PHOENIX, ARIZONA. I don't know where she is or what happened to her, not that it really matters at the very moment. My brother picked Jr up from Indio today, and I just saw him moments ago. He has the same face, taller body. He speaks more. They were asking him "who's this? who's that?" and he shrugs, (he got that from me). He doesn't remember me, nor my mom or dad, nor Coco, at least not right now, but it's okay. He's back. HE'S BACK! The search is over. The wait is over. It's all over. He's back. Thanks for everyone's thoughts, prayers, and support. He's back he's back he's back! Good things do happen. I was starting to lose hope. P.S. Pictures soon.

This is the best thing you'll ever read ever in the life of the world ever
W-w-w-warning, Spoilers ahead. First of all, I'm a superhero at work. I wield both gun and blade. Albeit a PDT scanner thing and a box cutter, a superhero I am nonetheless. Compared to anything, this shall be your greatest read. Ever read Harry Potter? Harry Potter is a butter knife compared to this steak knife of an entry. And that's saying something, cuz I'm an avid (hold on, I'm dictionary.com'ing "avid" ... aha! I knew it. I knew I heard "avid fan" before...) fan of Harry Potter. Hmm, no, nevermind, this won't be as good as Harry Potter. Harry Potter is good. The last one I read was the IV one, and I SWEAR, after I finished it, I thought I felt Lord Vol-- oops almost caught me... We must not speak his name. But Hermione said "fear of a name only increases fear of the thing itself." I even looked it up look see: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0295297/quotes Hmm, internal conflict. Anyway, second to Harry Potter, (thanks J.K. Rowling. ::wink::) this will be good. Well not really but let's move along move along just to make it through. I'm not a big fan of the All-American Rejects. That one song "Swing, swing, let us go to the playground to swing on a swing, and if we have the balls, we can do that thing where we dismount off of the swing by doing a backflip, but I might chicken out at the last minute, I mean seriously, what if I fall the wrong way, I might hurt my neck, or at least get my new jacket dirty" was catchy, but not enough for me to downl-- I mean buy the CD. I am writing an entry to address Final Fantasy XII. I received Final Fantasy XII on October 31, 2006, via my brother, and I defeated it... conquered... no, defeated it on December 5, 2006. About 64 hours of gameplay. But I gotta say, something was missing. It felt... empty. Hmm. Perhaps it has something to do with the music. Someone should do a science experiment on it, hmm nope said that stupidity already. Cuz like watch, I'm a huge fan of Nobuo Uematsu, and I know he did a bunch of the Final Fantasy games. It's a like, carazy good. It's like, I listen to it, and I'm like "keewwll." As of exactly right now, I'm under the impression that most of the music stuff from Final Fantasy XII was from some other composer, and a few things from Nobuo Uematsu. Although I liked the theme to "Lowtown." This is one theory. Is it correct? I know not. A cool thing from the game: The battle system is "new and improved." After playing KH2 (this, and heretoforth, shall stand for the Playstation 2 game, "Kingdom" "Hearts" "II"), I grew accustomed to and/or fond of the new battle system, because every time it doesn't go "grsssssshhhhh da da da da de de da da da de da" and the same battle tune comes on. Get me wrong not, I like the Final Fantasy style, but after a while from playing the game, it gets a little tedious. So the battle system of FFXII (ooh I can abbreviate that one too) is new and different, so that was cool. The people at Square-Enix worked really hard, oh, I can tell. They created a HUGE world for the game. The FMV's are keewwll and whatnot, but I think the biggest element I can attribute to my disappointment is... "lack of character development." I'm not even sure if I know what I'm talking about, but let's look into it, why don't we? No reason not to, so let's go. First, let's look back on a boxer brief history of my experience with Final Fantasy. VII: There's Cloud, who's initially indifferent about the world's status, cares mostly about himself, self pride and whatsnot. Tifa who cares for Cloud, who's buddy buddy with Barret, who's part of this group called Avalanche who are trying to fight Shinra cuz they're taking from the planet. There's Aeris who's the last Ancient, or Cetra. Red XIII, Cid, Yuffie, Vincent, the Turks, Sephiroth, I don't know about you all, but I think they were all connected, somehow. The storyline was awesome. VIII: The SeeDs and Garden, Rinoa and Timber, Sorceresses, etc etc... I think it was all developed in a "cool-style" way. I haven't played IX in a while, but I know I didn't feel disappointed, and I really liked X too. Hmm. Erm. Hrmm. SPOIL! Mainly, I liked how I felt that the characters had a reason to move forward. For FFXII, I didn't feel it. Vaan wants to get out of his little town, explore the world, experience some adventures, become a sky pirate, just be free. Penelo is Vaan's good friend, although she probably has a crush on Vaan, probably. Balthier is a sky pirate, Fran is his partner. They kind of just pop out of nowhere. Get me wrong not again, each individual character is kind of cool in his/her own right, but I felt there was lack of unity, lack of motive. Basch was betrayed, branded as a traitor, and supposedly killed for his mutinous acts. Ashe is a Princess who's recent husband was killed, and she was rumored to have killed herself, although she lives. The enemy is the empire, and yes, everyone has a personal v for vendetta against it, and that perhaps ties the characters together, but I don't feel the connection was strong enough. I just feel like "here are your 6 characters, they are cool, they are together, move them forward." But I just felt like... it was "here they are, that's it." "Here we are, let's go." The end of the game came and I was like "hmm. erm. hrmm." There's always a main character, e.g. Cloud, Squall, Zidane, Tidus, never played XI. Perhaps they attempted to move away from that concept. Vaan was the implied main character. Balthier was the "leading man" although that was probably meant to be humorous. Ashe definitely had a leading role. My favorite character would probably be Basch, since he seemed like a badash, mostly because of a short cut scene where this dood "Reddas" tried to attack him because he thought he was one of Doctor Cid's minions, so Reddas was all like "here I come guys, haaaya!" and Basch was like "woosh" and Reddas missed hitting his feet, and then he tried attacking him head on and Basch was like "I don't think so mutha f--" and he raised his arm and blocked Reddas' blades with his metal bracelets or gauntlets or something like that. So, I just wanted to share that with you all, with you, all. Speaking of which, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time was a very cool game. I want to play a cool Zelda game. Twilight Princess? But a Wii I have not. A PS3 I have not. I'm not a nerd I just crush a lot. Hmm, no? Fine I'm a nerd, what of it? Current Mood: okay | | Friday, November 17th, 2006 | | 7:51 pm |
this is serious
if i were a state, my state animal would be "food." and my state flag would be fried chicken and macaroni and cheese. and my state motto would be "i'm hungry." and my state flower would be "the bunches of small white flowers" which i tried to find the name right now on google and google.com/images but couldn't find it exactly. i wouldn't eat them, but they remind me of home. codswallop, i am hunggggaaaarrrrrrrrrrry. i want some kfc. or pizza. or... thai food. banana boat republic it is. bonnie prepare for my arrival. i prefer blue carpet thanks, red not so much but will be tolerated if need be. everyone, to the boat we go. i just noticed, a "banana boat" is much similar to a "yellow submarine." watch this. bananas are yellow. and boat and submarine are ... next to each other in some categorical sense.

quest for the dvd
happy birthday frederick/pigeon pass. hope it's good. i could go on and on about what's happened to me lately... and so i will. warning: if you don't like when you scoff, roll your eyes, go "tch" or "oh gosh that was stupid" then turn away now. but if you don't mind then go right ahead and read. i was bored so i bought the 2 disc soundtrack of "the nightmare before christmas." mainly i bought it cuz it said that "panic at the disco" made a cover of one of the songs, and thus i bought it. little did i know that marilyn manson and fall out boy made excellent covers while p at the d made a rather ordinary one. well that's what i thought. anyway, i listened to it yesterday and today a lot, and i realized "hmm. i want this dvd." and the quest began. i went to walmart first. i NEVER ask, but i so wanted this dvd, that i asked. "could you help me find a dvd?" "sure, which one?" "the nightmare before christmas." 5 minutes later: "we don't have it." punch you! target next. "the release for that is weird, they only release it like... a few days before halloween." you know what i think? you're weird, and they only release you a few days before halloween. jerkface. then, i realized i started to smell. not of fart, but of a cologne and/or perfume called... "obsession." like, by that one brand and/or company. calvin klein. or kevin kline. or their distant cousin chris kline from them teen movies like 'just friends' and... that other one. with reeses pieces witherfork. no not cruel intentions. no not legally blonde 2. prolly legally blonde 1. when i fart in the car i crack open the window for a limited time only. best buy. "no we don't have it... we have the other one. the corpse bride." if i wanted the corpse bride, i would've said "i want the corpse bride." kick them! mall. man, i can't believe i went to the mall. i should've just went home and slept before work. i went to fye, whatever that is. not there. went to "cartoon field." the dood there was i think very lonely. he was white, so i was suspicious. donde esta asian guy with fancy haircut? "hi, are you looking for anything in particular?" "the nightmare before christmas dvd." "no, sorry we don't have that... do you have any questions about upcoming anime?" "uh no not really" "ok, if you have any questions i'm right over here." few seconds later. "if you're interested in the nightmare before christmas we have a section over there with some bags." few minutes later, i exit. "thanks." he immediately goes "huh? oh. ... . no problem." i think he was hoping i said "would you like to be my buddy? magic cards." i was tired the other day and when i spotted johnny depp's odd-looking head on the dvd cover, i thought to myself "do i want to buy charle chonka and the chocolate factory?" no. i think i prefer widescreen thanks. when i type in "is employee of the month still in theater?" on google, i think that rather than giving me a bunch of websites such as imdb.com or wikipedia with background information, it should say "yes." or "no." not to bash imdb or wiki, cuz they're my bros when i want to know the latest information on cinformation. i made up that word, i tried to combine cinema and information. when i was passing by best buy, i got to thinking. 'linens n'things' is just the less popular sequel to 'bed, bath, and beyond.' jk to the max, i don't even know if those are related stores. but that's weird how they use a vague catch word like "n'things" or "and beyond." it makes you wonder "what else do those beyotches got?!" like... if there was a store called "acorns n'more." they could have acorns. for all we know, the "more" could entail nuts, walnuts, cashews, pistachios, and hi definition dvd players. or blue ray disc players. whatever you prefer. i dunno the difference. i dictionary.com'd "pistachios" for the right spelling. i finally gave up. i was severely disappointed. i wanted to make a frown so large that people from all over would come up to me and ask me what was wrong. like: little boy: golly gee mister, what's wrong? old lady: ya sonny boy, what's your achin'? worker at walmart: {doesn't say anything, but faces her back to me and points at her vest which says "how may i help you" and turns her head and arches her eyebrows as if to say "eh? EH?") oh well. there's always amazon. p.s. on a serious note, much apologies but jina and i can't make it to disneyland. sorry even further that it's such late notice, but we wanted to make absolute sure of our decision. i couldn't get anyone to work my shift, technically i could just call out that night but they are greatly discouraging it cuz of the upcoming holidays, and plus i worked last sunday and they were short staffed even with me there. and oh man jina stayed after her work checking the books seeing if she could get the whole day off but the best she could do was get off at 1pm and she'd be coming from northridge. much much apologies, sorry sorry, sorry... but let's get together and have good times, sometime.

i've been thinking...
i think it would be interesting and/or cool if people were referred to as a food which originates from their nation of origin. for example, like on that show "blind date," if the guy says "tell me about yourself" and the girl says "well, i'm a crepe," i think the guy would laugh and get all excited and say "wow, i've never gone out with a french girl before. como ta le vou estas" it just sucks cuz if i were on that dating show, i'd be like "well, i'm a roasted pig organs." it doesn't really work as well. first of all, "i'm a roasted pig organs" isn't even correct english, and it's not as cool as "i'm a crepe." i watched "x-men: the last stand" on dvd today, my second time--first time in the theater. i was thinking throughout the whole movie, it would suck to have a mutant power that sucked. so i started thinking of a sucky mutant power, and i remember on family guy when meg had the power to grow her nails like 5 inches longer than they were. so i suddenly thought, if someone's mutant power were to grow their hair as long as they wanted, that person would be pretty sad most of the time. if they had to fight for the good of all humankind, they'd be face to face with the enemy and be like "haya" and the enemy would shield his head with his arms, then when he'd look, he'd say "hey, where'd he go? all i see is this thin, manly woman with odd-looking extremely long hair. kiss me, but i won't be offended if you don't want to." that mutant power is not a good one. i also think, that if farts were visible, for example, like you know how smoke is visible? i think if farts looked like blue smoke when they came out, people would hold them in more often than not because it's embarrassing. there would be 2 long-term effects: the world would have less pollution, but more people would have stomach aches more often. i think someone would take it up as their 7th grade science fair project. don't forget the control, the variable, the hypothesis, and the 3-sided cardboard that will blow over if it's even a little bit windy. which reminds me, storm had an accent in x-men but not in x-2 or the last stand. i wanted to get buff like a superhero, so i was like "i'm gonna do this, get motivated." i dropped on the floor, but after 3 push ups my arms started to hurt, so i laid down and fell asleep for a few hours. that never happened, i was just joking, but that sounds like something i'd do. right now.

Jina got me this cool Advent Children wall scroll. Look:   The same day she gave it to me, I gave her the special edition dvd thing of Chronicles of Narnia. She really likes the music. No occasion, we just felt like giving each other stuff I guess. Funny story for the fourth of July. Jina said she was working, but I had nothing to do. I had no real plan, but I figure I'd go surprise her. Since she didn't know I was coming, I was taking my time in leaving. I ate, watched a little TV, got ready (dressed up kinda nice too, in all black, to match her since that's her 'uniform') then left. I tried to go my usual way to the freeway but the road was closed, cuz there's like a festival near here, and fireworks are shown, so frikkin close. It's kinda neat, cuz everyone parks anywhere possible but I just go out into the driveway and see it from there. Anyway, the road was closed, so I was like "what the crap?" so I turn around, and go an alternate way. There's this car stopped in front of me, and again I'm like "what the crap?" but I then realize why the car stopped. When the car left, there was this little dog, just walking around happily by the side of the road. Now see here, I don't know if that car was the owner of the dog, cuz if it was, then that's pretty crapped up, leaving the dog by the side. I'll just assume for happiness sake that the car was NOT the owner, and they just wanted to have a closer look at the cute dog. But then I'm like "what the crap do I do?" The deciding factor for me was that it had a collar... If it didn't have a collar, I probably would've just driven off. But it DID, and it surely would've been hit and killed... So I turn the car around, park it, and turn on the emergency lights... I walk slowly to the dog, and she runs toward me... I immediately look at the collar, there's a tag--it says "KOOKII 1-951-485-2545" I call, and this lady picks up (I thought it was little girl) She says "hello?" I go "hello?" she goes "hello?" I go "are your parents home?" She's like "my parents don't live here" I go "I found a dog. It says to call this number on the tag" She goes "I don't have a dog, I have a rabbit bla bla bla" So I'm like "Ok sorry bye." Now I don't know what to do... I have a crisis on my hands... Jina calls, and I tell her "I have a crisis on my hands..." But what a surprise, Jina came to see ME. So what a surprise this is, but alas, this dog, named Kookii apparently, has no place to go, and I don't know what to do. Jina and I go to the shelter just in case, but of course it was closed. So now she's here, temporarily. I plan to bring her to the shelter tomorrow, because I'm not sure what else to do. Any advice? Otherwise I'm bringing her to the shelter. I know it sounds cruel, but if the owners are looking for it, Kookii has a better chance at the shelter, right? And if the owners DID want to drop her off (stupid mo fo's) why would they leave that collar on, along with the number to call? I don't know. I made sure that I called the right number. Oh well. The best part. PPPPIIICCCTTTUUURERRERRREEREssssssssssss sssSS!      ADVICE PLEASE! What do I do WHAT DO I DO? Is the shelter okay? Would I be evil for doing that? Will they treat her nice? It's the shelter off Alessandro and Elsworth. They're nice, right? They better be. ADVICE PLEASE. THANKS. Current Mood: okay | | Sunday, July 2nd, 2006 | | 1:27 am |

Partay
My family's having a graduation party for me, the Saturday after graduation, tomorrow. You can come, but you don't have to. I won't be offended if you don't come. Yes I will. Why aren't you coming? Gosh. You always do this. I can't depend on you for anything. Cadswallop, just come. I mean whatever who cares. You can come if you want. Sometime after lunch. I'll say, don't come any earlier than 2pm. I'm pretty sure you won't come. Gosh darn it, why aren't you coming? Man. Geez. Mr. Freeze. From Batman. Arnold Schwarzenegger. T3. Family's coming, but they're cool, the most anyone will do is say "you're Edmond's friends?" or something whatever like that. I'm pretty sure you won't come. Why won't you come? Family's coming so I understand if you don't want to come. But my mother said there will be spaghetti and baked chicken. And like iced cream. Ice cream. Iced cream. Why aren't you coming? Come if you want, don't come if you don't want. Man, why aren't you coming? You can come for 15 minutes, scarf down food then leave. I don't care, nor do I mind. Whatever. Do whatever you want. I'm sick and tired of your lies. You know what? Do us all a favor, and don't come at all. Come if you want to. Unless you don't want to. Then don't come.

King Ran
I think it is safe to say that most people, if not all, can say "in the right light, I don't look so bad." USB does not stand for University of Southern Balifornia. Come to think of it... USB... USB... Universal. Standard. Button. Let me look it up... ... ... ... ... Universal Serial Bus. Interesting, now that I know what USB stands for, I still don't know, what... USB stands for... What a weird phrase: "stands for." I applied for a Best Buy Card, and it asked for my birthday so I wrote it. Then for the signature, it said sign and date it, and for some reason, I signed it and wrote my birthday again. It was embarrassing, not to mention humiliating, and embarrassing. I felt so dumb. If I were king, I would be called King Dumb. I have a lot of Sanrio stuff. Current Mood: okay | | Sunday, March 19th, 2006 | | 5:50 pm |
Funniliscious
My friend wanted to get our old group of friends back together again for spring break, and I told him "you have my number" and he replied with: "make sure you answer... you almost never do" I dunno.

The sad songo or Morongo
I went to Walmart with my brother and we randomly went to Morongo. I've never gambled before. I put a dollar in one of the machines, gone. Then my brother started to play Black Jack, and I got so impatient. I was like "wow. I'm so annoyed. Hurry up and lose your money and let's go." I was uncomfortable, I didn't want to wander off on my own. But I was forced to. Another dollar in the machine. Don't know which button to press. Press "Cash Out." Get a receipt. What am I supposed to do with this? Stick it in my wallet. $20 in the machine. Gone. I notice a person put a receipt (or whatever it was, the ticket thing) in the money slot. Put the $1 receipt in, gone. $20 in the machine. Gone. I'm thru with gambling for the night. Find my brother. We leave. It was depressing losing $40, but oh well. The good side is, at least it wasn't $60. My brother on the other hand, won the jackpot. He walked away with an extra $15, and used it right away to buy Del Taco for me and his friends. I need a job.

Warning: If you are not a fan of anime or final fantasy, look away. If thou shalt not look away, thou shalt catch a diseaseth, symptoms of which include rolling of eyes, heavy of groans, deepness of sighs, scoffing and geezing. Ok, am I correct in assuming that only nerds are proceeding to read? Great. Here we go. As if I thought the anticipation for the Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children DVD release could not become any more immense, I was more wrong than ever in life ever. I simply had to click on the link that said "Read more..." Going down the list: Some familiar names, but nothing wow-worthy, aside from Lady Rachael, as stated in a previous entry. Until I reach the voices for Vincent Valentine and Barett Wallace, respectively: Steve Blum and Beau Billingsleau. I thought to myself "gosh, I didn't even THINK of them." I'm sure you nerds know, but just in case you don't, them two were the flawlessly-casted duo who voiced Spike Spiegel and Jet Black (respectively) in Cowboy Bebop. Oh man. It's gonna be so awesome.

Oh man
It's interesting how something so stupid or trivial can make me laugh like I've never laughed before, ever in life ever. Frederick's been tryin to get this fine arts fraternity or whatever up and goin again, and I dunno, I looked on the facebook page and such little things made me laugh... First of all, he spelled "writing" with two T's = "writting." And I just noticed also that he forget to press space after a comma so it looks like this: "art,film." He also put "send me a messag or e mail." I guess the "e mail" part is whatever, but the "messag" with no E made me laugh like I had never laughed before, ever in life ever. But the BIGGEST thing... was the little picture... Obviously it's like, the greek letters for the fraternity, "phi" and "beta," but it looks... really "ghetto." You know, I've heard that word like a billion times in my life, like literally a billion, I've counted, and I can only assume the definition from context clues... It reminded me of my first communion banner which "I" put together (my mom did everything). But anyway, I dunno, I'm sure no one else thinks/would think all of this is funny, but I hadn't laughed like that in a while. That shows how much happiness emanates from my soul. You know what? My mom did EVERYTHING in school. That's kind of sad... I mean, like, for example, "students are to make log cabins in 3rd grade." I don't remember what grade it was, but did ya'll have to do that? Cuz we did, but I SO. DID. NOT. Mommy did it, which is fine, I mean, I seriously wouldn't be able to do that, even now, it'd look like a pile of toothpicks, q-tips, and splinters in a heap of whats-it. Then, like fourth grade missions? I DREW the mission, and I thought it was pretty good, but BUILD A MISSION.!? Um, let's say, negatory. Mommy did it. Now that I look back on it, she was pretty damn frikkin good. I should ask how she did all that crap. http://ucr.facebook.com/group_profile.php?gid=2998I'm sure it won't work because nothin works in my life. Just search for UCR PHI BETA, if you're interested, which I'm sure you're not, because why Wujubee? Thank goodness for the long frikkin weekend. Although, irony strikes when you least expect it. Well, I mean, I guess that's why they call it irony. I don't get it. Current Mood: okay | | Saturday, February 11th, 2006 | | 10:54 pm |
Reasons why I'm most likely a girl in life
I shall get my mind off seriousness for a change. Just for a few seconds. Ready and set and go and play now. Recently, I've watched Dinosaur (on TV), Mulan II (on TV), and I, Robot (I ordered it). Dinosaur was pretty cool, it was on the Disney Channel and I got hooked. Although the end reminded me of Lion King, cuz (I hope I'm not ruining it for anyone) they have babies and everyone roars. Isn't that how the aforementioned animated Disney movie ended? I saw a preview of of Lion King on TV and I randomly wrote a poem for class about it called like "The Lion Cub" or something and my teacher liked it and I got some sort of award. But that was before, and this is now, and the truth comes out, and there are no rewards, in life. Anyway. Mulan II was surprisingly good. My two favorite parts were when (I hope I'm not ruining it for anyone) Shang or how ever you spell it picks up the wet map and it rips (I don't think it was supposed to be funny but I laughed). And I "lol'd" after Yao beat that guy up in the village and then the next scene showed a monkey-type stuffed animal that resembled Yao. And I liked how the three guys finally found three "girls worth fighting for," har har har howdy ho ho. I liked it. I only saw part of I, Robot the first time I saw it. I watched it on TV, and I saw from the middle on, but it was so awesome that I decided that Sonny was my hero and that I would eventually buy the widescreen DVD, and that I did, and this is a run-on sentence. Strangely enough, I thought it was even more amazing than the first time I had seen it. Remember the part (I hope I'm not ruining it for anyone) when the big bulldozer robot is going to destroy Lanning's house, and the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air picks up the cat? Well, here's the first reason why I'm most likely a girl in life. When he picked up the cat, I grabbed my heart, like, I physically crossed my arms over my heart, and I gasped, and the resulting sound was like half "aww" and half "ohh." I rewound to see it again (I do that a lot on DVD's) only to find that he saves the cat AGAIN and the same gesture came out, it's very unconscious, it's almost like, instinct. I don't even know what that means. How is grabbing your heart, and gasping a half "aww" half "ohh" instinctive, at all? Whatever. Anyway, I like a lot of movies, and I most definitely couldn't list them all. I, Robot is on the list though. It's not really coming from the action, it's definitely the heroic aspect of Sonny. And yes, my heart cringed AGAIN when (I hope I'm not ruining it for anyone) the old robots saved the Fresh Prince. Damn you, Robot Viki. I liked you better in Small Wonder. Here's the second reason why I'm most likely a girl in life. Well, let me give a little background first. Final Fantasy VII. That's 7, in the arabic numeral language, for those of you who can't read Rome wasn't built in a day. Anyway, I'm a huge Final Fantasy fan, and it all began with Final Fantasy VII, which I THINK came out in 1997. It holds a special place in my heart, just like a billion other things do. (For anyone's boring information, I proceeded to play VIII, IX, X, and X-2). Anyway, um. I always thought it'd be cool to make movies of those games, or any game; I think (yes, I used a semi-colon) it'd be TOTALLY rad if they made a movie adaptation of Zelda. But I'm just a nerd/geek/dork. A Deerk. I digress. They made Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within, but I don't even think Jack Hannah liked that movie. I've had the opportunity twice to watch it and I fell asleep both times, so I've never really watched it. And it was completely unrelated to the games, I think. ANYWAY, they made a CG movie, continuing the story of Final Fantasy VII, the Playstation game, and it's called Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children. It came out in Japan on like September 14, 2005, I think, and it was supposed to be released in the US but it's taking so gosh darn long. The Japanese version of course leaked over here, so I've seen it, and a bunch of people have seen it, but I'm waiting for it to come out over here too. Anyway, back to the reason and the girl and the thing and the thing thing. I periodically visit adventchildren.net because it has updates and such. Anyway, I read this, at the top of the site: Official US Site Updates ... or does it Earlier today, the official US website was updated with new information in their news section, confirming three voice actors - Steve Burton [Cloud], Rachel Leigh Cook [Tifa] and Mena Suvari [Aerith] as well as a release date... Anyone who knows anyone who knows me knows I'm a HUGE fan of Rachael Leigh Cook. Wow, they spelled her name wrong. But anyway, uponst reading this, my hands most definitely and swiftly pressed against my mouth, stifling any girly sound that might have wanted to come out. Well, whatever, all that aside, how frikkin awesome is that.!? Rachael Leigh Cook, voicing Tifa, in Advent Children. It's a whole, new, different kind of joy that comes out when two completely different loves of yours comes together... It was reminiscent of when I found out Angel Locsin was playing a character on the anime, Initial D, although she's voicing the Tagalog version, which I WANT, where can I get something like that? Well, I guess the Philippines... Well anyway, I just hope it's true and it's not fake or they don't change or or whatever bla whatever bla bla. I dunno who Steve Burton is. I will check right now... Um yes I have no idea who he is. Shrug. Oh Rachael. You're married now. I'm sure you're happy, and if you're happy, I'm happy. Ooh I also bought the Death Cab for Cutie DVD entitled "Drive Well, Sleep Carefully." I'm watching it now. Current Mood: okay |
