I decided to go to KC Irish Fest

Friday, August 29th, 2008

Heh, it seems like if Nick’s doing something, I wanna do it too. Like he’s going to KC Irish Fest bc he’s helpin’ out the club. Well there’s gonna be near to no one (just us and maybe Andy) there. I’m really happy to go. I wanna DDR w/ Nick, and I really wanna DDR. This is new for me because I really don’t like DDR, but it’s fun to do something like this thirty hours of DDR because I’ll be hangin’ out w/ Nick and have crowds of people watching me from the ten thousand or so that’ll be there.

xxxHOLiC Kei completed already?

Wednesday, August 27th, 2008

Apparently I finished this one. I swear I hadn’t watched them all. I just downloaded the entire series but apparently I’d already seen the end. Wow… That was uneventful. Hopefully there’s another awesome movie to follow, but I think they ended it even though there would be 12-13 episodes left to finish it off I’d say.

Umm… It was good and again, I fell in love w/ the art and the spooky stuff. I think I talked about it already though. Oh yeah, here it is!

VOTOMS have bottoms, get it? -_-

Wednesday, August 27th, 2008

“Armored Trooper VOTOMS – Pailsen Files” is the full name of the sucker. It’s got a really neat American action flick feeling while still being under the guise of a beautifully rendered Japanese storyline.

Bomberman Jetterz completed

Wednesday, August 27th, 2008

YAY! I’m done. Ok, so I have it figured out. The writing is done for kids, the coedy for teenagers, and the storyline for people around my age. I mean, it had a lot of mystery and action. I thought they could’ve done waaaay more w/ the action and less w/ the zOMG he/she’s gonna die oh no! Oh… someone saved them after they built up all of that suspense. I mean, do it a few times, but this is like something in ALL anime. I have just come to expect and hate it now. They did it countless times in this one. Seriously, two people died in this entire thing (at least all that I’m revealing) and one of the deaths was no big deal because it was like “oh he died”, and there was nothing more about it since then.

I notice that a lot of things are pointed towards the youngsters, but then that’s where the beauty. Bomberman is something I know and love and so was this show. I thought the concepts nearer to the end were VERY adult. I think kids would really have no concept of it all. I mean, really, it had SUCH a concept of love, family, caring, responsibility, and more than enough of actually merit the rating of a kid’s show. But that’s what it is right? No.

Flexible Love, story of a chair

Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

So I was watching a video on YouTube from Joystiq and found this other video about a chair. It looked interesting so I gave it a click. To my surprise, this thing is surreal! It could be better I’d say, but Flexible Love looks pretty neat either way. It was just strange to see something so small become something so big and still support a person’s weight. I already have my own ideas on the make of it, but I doubt it’s awfully comfortable. I’d say it’s very much designed for those who don’t have much space for things. Heck, that’d be perfect for me when I have a bunch of guest over.

Stopping the Xanga

Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

The transition period is over. No matter how much I’ll miss my trouting experiences, I’m shutting down my crossposting to Xanga. Guess I’ll leave it there for a while then delete my five year account forever.

Finally controlling my feelings

Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

Man, I’ve gotten really good at controlling my feelings, far better than I ever have. I think it’s because of my mom. Like, stuff she said to me when I was a kid to make things better, while wrong, just saying it even though I don’t believe it helps for some reason as I’m up and awake now.

My new business

Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

PREVIEW LINK

If you haven’t talked to me in the last two days, you probably still know about the new business I’m starting. Instead of just having String the Scores, I wanted to showcase myself and all of my abilities to create some kinda of businesses of a business under my own name. While nothing’s official yet, I figure I can offer my services and once I feel like it’s starting to work out, I’ll go ahead and incorporate it. Since it’s just me at the moment and a few people I might be able to call on if I need help or if there’s a job I cannot do that they’re willing to pick up, then everything will still be under a known and trusted name. First thing’s first, I need to get customers/clients. By that point, I can start having people say “oh, I used this guy for blah” and such. Word of mouth will truly be how I wanna advertise.

Since I’m all by myself, I have a limited volume of customers I can support. Since I have some people wanting to help out, then I can manage more projects and participate in them as well. I mean, I think I have some good leadership ability, and I love to manage and lead, so having something like this where somethings I suck at are done by others would be really helpful. I’m all for having more people on board provided I get customers. Right now, it’s all gonna be freelance, but I’m hoping to really have something going here soon.

I remember love again!

Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

I remember now. See, it’s like, when I get the feeling where I’m in love with someone, and I don’t even care to tell them. It’s like, I love someone so much that it doesn’t matter to me anymore if they know, just so much that I have that feeling. Man, I haven’t remember that feeling in ages it seems like. Now I remember. So crazy! Man, I’ve had other love feelings before and wrote about them in my blog. They prevent me from going to sleep. It’s usually when I’m doing so utterly bad and can’t figure out why I’m fighting with myself that I suddenly am able to turn that around and be like I am now. I’m not extremely happy though, but damn that feeling is amazing. I’ve just gotta keep it in a bottle so that when I wake up later today, I’ll have it there so I can really enjoy myself and play some DDR in Iowa. Man, I’m so excited and like, wanting to have fun and do stuff right now. I NEED this feeling to stay for good even if I’m single and not having had my heart broken.

Not worrying or not caring?

Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

I spoke w/ someone today about stuff, and he was asking me questions about myself. Well we came down to the conclusion that I don’t worry at all unless there’s a danger zone, and then I can be as smart as I need to be. While I’m an energetic personality, that doesn’t mean I’m going to be aware of what emotions I’m experiencing. See, I remember telling Sarah that while I make comments, I really am not bothered by things I comment on. I mean, it doesn’t seem to be even be a bad thing to speak my mind because I meet great people because of it and always have gotten compliments for it. That doesn’t mean it also hasn’t gotten me into the worse kinds of troubles. If I just figure out how to approach things better, then things’ll be fine. I haven’t ticked off Sarah yet so since she’s the newest person in my life and nothing’s going crazy yet, I must’ve improved my personal skill set. LEVEL UP FTW!

Bomberman Jetterz has sad moments?

Monday, August 25th, 2008

Since when did the show that’s clearly aimed more at kids with the comedy for adults have teary-eyed moments? I seriously felt it in the back of my throat. I’m close to halfway through the fifty-one episode series. Pretty good considering I started it about a week to a week and a half ago.

Natsuiro no Sunadokei – Sandglass of Summer Colors

Sunday, August 24th, 2008

Aww, it’s such a cute love story. I really am liking it. Originally, I was just looking for ANYTHING I could get my hands on. I mean, I was low on anime to watch at the time and just got something, anything. There were two I was gonna get but one was Ecchi, and I was looking for something more of a story and very short so I could watch it and by the time it was done, I’d have been able to catch up on other series and have had those downloaded as well.

So this two episode OAV has been quite the run. It’s so romantic and a little too much so, but I understand it now far better than I would have if it were a year ago. That’s a weird way of looking at it. I liked how short it was bc I could see the story play out w/o having to go through a bunch of filler stuff and it was like, I knew what was gonna happen from the start so it was nicer to have it go by quicker in that respect. Even then, I’d say it was even too long, lol. Maybe I’m just not ready yet for all of this lovey dovey stuff.

X-Men 3

Saturday, August 23rd, 2008

I was at Sarah’s house the other day, and while it took us like 30 minutes to find a movie to watch, we settled on X-Men 3. It was REALLY good. I like the interpretation they’ve done of the cartoon/comics and really made it into something. The most disappointing thing was that while they added “I’m the Juggernaut bitch!” they had a European dude saying it and he didn’t even really look like Juggernaut should yet he was shakin’ the place down and knocking down walls. WTF! And there really wasn’t enough to do with that kid’s strange power, at least not yet. I’d like to see how they showed Beast w/o the fur and blue because it would’ve been cool. Maybe if he actually would’ve shaken the kid’s hand. Low budget? Pffft.

Otherwise, the movie really was good. I really enjoyed it a lot and then I love how they always have something at the end that makes you go “oh man, I can’t wait till the next one”. ALWAYS leaving you w/ a cliffhanger of some sorts. The weirdest thing is that I think I missed the second one they leave you with. See, we let the credits rolls through bc we were talkin’ about it, and we saw this part at the very end and couldn’t figure out at ALL what had happened. We watched it twice and gave up after that. I forgot to look it up online. I hope now that I haven’t missed anything like that from the first or second movie either. Man… Who was that and the nurse? I dunno what’s going on, but the fourth one seems to be really killer. Awesome.

Seems to be that there’s always something black and white going on though. First it’s changing everyone into mutants, then it’s changing everyone into humans, then it’s killing everyone, I dunno! So freakin’ messed up; seriously! But still really awesome. I never thought things that happened in the movie would’ve happened especially w/ key characters we didn’t even ever get to see fight as X-Men. For real!

KevinGhadyani.info is mine~!

Saturday, August 23rd, 2008

So now I own KevinGhadyani.info. I used NameCheap instead of GoDaddy this time because I don’t like GoDaddy’s interface and because Mike is using NameCheap now so I wanted to try it out.

I’m gonna put up my personal portfolio and resume there and host the images and files on crenshaw, the server hosting umkcddr.com and stringthescores.com. This way, I can host everything personally here on my own router and have the files quickly transfer via DreamHost’s server. Should work out in the end. No WordPress this time around, not yet at least.

It’s times like these that we need Linux

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

Who’s stupid enough to setup the Olympics w/ a botched Windows machine and not a stable one or a Linux box which is designed only for one purpose and executes it flawlessly? SERIOUSLY PEOPLE!
