                <description><![CDATA[ Yeah, I can tell. I haven't done a thing worth placing here in dA for ages. Only logging in, check if there's any messages or new stuff done by other people, etc. Well, it's kind of a thing to do every day, it's not boring either, and well, it's rather refreshing to see what other people have been doing when you're not really being productive. Anyone goes through that more than once, for sure.<br /><br />Other than that, meh. Life is the same as always, lol. See you guys around then, and I really need to stop being such a lazy bum, in here, that is. : <<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Ah, beginning of October, Autumn's coming to a close and, crap, classes started, this Monday. It wasn't at all bad, but the last one seemed like it lasted for like.. 4 hours instead of two. End of the day, up since 6 am, god, I was completely burnt down, mentally speaking. And then there's the public transportations completely crammed with people, almost no space to move, geez. The whole nightmare has begun for another year. Thankfully everything's been going smoothly so far and I hope they stay that way till the end of the school year. I don't care what happens then, be it anything that can happen, I just don't care! Yay!<br /><br />University life is so effing stressing, I tell you. I want to go back to when classes were all about fun, pity that can't happen, eh. Anyways, Tuesdays are pretty muc my day 'off', so I can relax some. Oh, and I passed my driving code exam! Starting the real driving lessons this Friday, I just can't wait to screw up something. |: Going to be fun when I finally get my driver's license, keke. I've already got a car and everything. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/m/mad.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":x" title=":x (Mad)" /><br /><br />I should be in bed, right now. Classes at 10 am tomorrow, but I felt compelled onto writing something here, as if anyone even read this, that I know of. Prolly doing this just for some piece of mind or stuff. Besides, can't shake the feeling that something's not going quite right with a person I know. She may have left me, but you can't blame a guy for caring about her still, right? Right, I guess. Everyone makes mistakes.<br /><br />Cheers, Saki~<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Been a while since I last posted anything here. I'll be honest and say that I've been neglecting dA a bit these last days and the month that has gone by, that being August. Holidays are pretty much coming to an end and uni 2nd year starts about next week on the 15th, I think. Worse come to worse, I think things are going a little better now than they were about mid-late August. A certain event totally brough my 2-week vacations downwards from that day onwards, but oh well, shit happens, ain't that right?<br /><br />Anyways, enough of bringing up sad memories to this post, I shouldn't really leave myself onto that crap, even tho, I know it'll come up again, like always. x; Right, so, I've been over to my university about twice before the start of the new year, had to fill in the papers and stuff, and for my utter surprise, my schedule so fucking rocks that I still can't believe it. I mean, I got one tuesday off in the first semester and, get this, a friday in the second semester. Awesome right? The only down part of this are my mondays being full of classes with no breaks inbetween. Gotta figure a way to handle through 3 classes one after another. I saw some of my classmates from last year, some didn't even remember my face at all, lolz (not my fault that I changed a bit, lul). Well, I did stop going to classes after a while, lawl. But that's not gonna happen this year, haha.<br /><br />What else.. ah, right. Need to study for the driving code exam. : < I really don't feel like sitting in front of the laptop and stare at the screen, doing lame 30 question tests. It's boooring, but I gotta start doing it today, I don't want to end up failing it right before my classes start, that'd just suck so bad. Plus, I want to start driving. That's so going to help me at another time of my life, not right now, tho. Lisbon's like a hell for cars, you're stuck in a jam for like 30 minutes or even more if you're out of luck, so, baw. Public transportation's by far best.<br /><br />God, I'm hungry. :< Rawwr. Anyways, I got a huge idea yesterday when I was on the back way home in the train, I just hope I can write it down now. I pretty much remembered one of the first Role Plays that I got me into it and thought about it's concept. Sure, alright, it was some Vampire Vs. Werewolf crap, but when I think about it, it's not that bad. Werewolfs are gone tho. Urban Myths that aren't really myths in this story, mix some CSI-like elements plus some underground conflict and bingo, you've got some great stuff to write, I hope. At least it felt like that to me. x; Now I just need to grab myself some free time, and type it all doooown and place it here. Getting a prologue/1st Chapter done is more difficult than doing the rest, believe me. It always is, the rest just flows out when the first part's done.<br /><br />Alright, that's done. Crap, I thought I had something more to type here.. Well, if I happen to remember it, I'll just edit again. XD<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So, yeah, so much for wanting to make a journal post before July. I pretty much just went 'to hell with it, I'll post one when I feel like it', which is about now and all, lol. Anyways, before the end of June, I got myself a PSP with Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII and after.. let's see 2 or 3 weeks of alternating between Monster Hunter Freedom 2 and Crisis Core, I've finally cleared Core's story (Some spoilers to follow, read at your own discrection). Geez, the one thing that got me with about a tear on the corner of my eyes were just as Zack was about to die, the only one thing that he cared about was just to see Aerith again, even if he had to go through an Army of Shinra Infantryman, which he did, but then fell and placed everything in poor Cloud's hands who was still affected by mako addiction (and by the way, Cloud seemed like a wuss in this game, it actually makes me wonder how the hell he managed to succeed in the original game). Still, I actually felt bad for Zack, he's one of the best characters within the FFVII universe and was about the least explored, up until now. What still bugs me is how Genesis comes into play, as there's no mentioning of him nor Angeal, in the main game. And yet, there's a Genesis Ending in Dirge Of Cerberus, which leaves so many things open. I smell that there's going to be some sequel whenever they'd feel like doing it. At least, don't give me some half-decent half-crap TPS like DoC, I liked it, but god, was it frustrating. I'd like a mind-blowing game like the original. Anyways, I'm going through a second playthrough in Crisis Core, I felt that I missed quite a lot of stuff.<br /><br />Anyways, enough of games, I feel like bad enough about wasting most of my time on them, but what the hell, it's not my fault that they're a form of entertainment, an addicting one at best. Oh wellz. Alright then, Summer has officially started, as well as vacations. Well, honestly, my vacations started around May, but who cares, this is when it originally starts. Anyways, the days have been like, scorching hot with temperatures around like.. 40Âº Celsius. It almost feels like hell, but there are hotter places around the globe, so I can't really complain. The nights are cool, and I just feel like spending them outside. It's neither hot nor cold, just plain perfect.<br /><br />Lol, another thing I just remember, my brother went to Switzerland/France about two weeks ago. And, I gotta be honest, the house felt pretty empty during the weekend.. There was something missing, it was just like, too quiet. Well, anyways, I'm glad he had a wonderful time back there, with the exception of him not being a saint and doing every other kind of shit in the hotel. That's just so like him. Another bit, I've been like home alone these last 2 days, up till this Sunday. And heck, lol. My room's empty most of the day, as me and my brother have the living room all for ourselves! It feels like it changed into a gaming room, the only thing that's missing is a PS3, since my PS2 is pretty much dying. I can't say it's been fun or boring, as it's mostly inbetween. But, honestly, my sleeping schedule is completely mixed up, and I mean mixed up. Geez.<br /><br />Anyways, I think that I'm going to spend around a week in Lisbon around next week, I think. After spending almost a year there! And then I'm going to spend some time to where I go every darn year! I'm fed up with those places. I want to go somewhere else, out of this country, preferably! But, that's just me wishing. Oh, and my brother got me a book, I've been reading it bit by bit when I feel like reading, plus it's much more interesting to me since it's in english, rather than the lamortuguese. They always sound so dull and boring.<br /><br />I think I've written enough. I don't know what else to add, nor remember anything to. Weird, I feel like I have a hole in my heart now. Bleh, anyways, I'm staying up the whole night today, I feel like taking a shot of the sunrise and post it here, rather than writing something lame down and place here for people to laugh. x; Anyways..<br /><br />Cheers, Saki~<br /><br />Edit: Right, lol. Tried to use BBCode and it didn't work. Well, at least the brackets stand out a bit, but a nice italic text sentence catches the eye more easily.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Baw, a 2-week look-a-like-holiday is almost reaching an end. D: God, I kinda deserved this rest (more like, haven't done a thing school-wise) and stay at home for a while. I haven't got anything against studying, but having to be away from home is something that hits you hard and gives you hard time. You can get homesick pretty quickly, imo, even if you're living with relatives. After all, there's nothing like your own room, with your own stuff and not someone else's. I can't blame anyone really, but my grandmother does appreciate having me as company as well as I do. After all, taking uni out, I'd only see her during some special weekends or either during holidays. Now, I miss more my own parents and my brother, who is quite the major pain in the butt, but it's bearable when you know you're only seeing him during the weekends most of the time.<br /><br />But anyways, I'm finally able to take the exam for the theory part to get my driver's license. Whoopie! After that, and after knowing that I've either passed or flunked the exam, the difficult part begins. Too bad that I can only take the exam next month. Until then, need to study a bit, it shouldn't be too hard, I guess. Oh, what joy is it going to be, all that learning about how a car works and all. Lol, even one of my closest friends had some difficulty with just the first class. He said to me that he almost came out of the class crying! Can you believe that? And that's so not like him, at all. But, I know that I won't go through all of that trouble, would I not have a father that works with cars the whole week. Heck, he can even fix his own when he wants, so, why should I bother? He can teach me.<br /><br />Hell yeah. Anyways, I need to go out tomorrow and take care of some stuff about my contact lenses, so that I finally can get my own definite pair. Yay, no more bothersome glasses. <3 Can't forget about and can't delay it anymooore. D: I don't want to infatuate my ego anymore than I already have it, but heck, I do look good without glasses. @_@; Especially with my sunglasses.. Okay, I better stop there before my ego backstabs me or I explode because of it.<br /><br />On another stuff.. I got hooked on Persona 3: FES. I never thought that a game with a school-like system and dating-sim like elements would be so addictive. @@; That with the RPG elements common with the Shin Megami Tensei games make an almost perfect game. I still get my ass handed to me, despite knowing that the difficulty is much easier compared to the other games. Sigh, need to level up more, otherwise, I'll be stuck forever.<br /><br />Ohoh, my town's festival starts today too, but I don't think I'm going to spend any of my time there. I might go there for a while during the night a day or two, but nothing sturred my interest there years ago, why would it now? If it'd bring something not usual then yeah, otherwise, just plain booring. I wonder if I'll find any of my friends over there.. probably, but I wouldn't know where they'd hang out around there anyways.<br /><br />And crap, it's almost July and I haven't written one darn thing. I better get something done before the first week of July ends or else I'm going to be in some deep, but deep shit. I can't wait till then, I've gotta start now or yeah, I can sense a storm beginning to pick up. You pick up and you sow, that's what people say. Well anyways, I know I'll make another entry before June gives the space for July, so.<br /><br />Cheers, Saki~<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Why am I writing a journal entry this late? XD I should be in bed getting some rest, but I decided to go against it, knowing that I'll have my room filled with my brother's friends for some school group work and that I have to wake up early. Honestly, I don't feel like sleeping at all, really. I'd prefer to keep having the heavy tunes of my music playing on my ears. It really kinda soothens my soul, big guitar riffs, heavy vocals, consistent drumming, all that heavy atmosphere placed into some almost poetic composition that plays just god darn well.<br /><br />Well, for a change, this Tuesday's a religious holiday, so, I decided to stick around home until Thursday morning, then going to my grandma's house for a day to then get back on Friday afternoon! Woohoo, I just wasted some perfect 10,60 Â that I could've saved for something else. My mother really doesn't think at times, but I can't blame her. She's not having it easy either. Life's so demanding these days that it seems like it's almost.. well, it doesn't "pay up"! More work this, more study that, oh sorry we don't employ noobs! Haha. THEN EMPLOY US TO GIVE US EXPERIENCE AT WORK, you tards. |: Well, anyways, next week is/was supposed to be study week, so yay, another full week at home, so that after another 2 weeks or so, school year is finished. I wonder how my mom'll react when I tell her I decided to let this year go. I know my dad'll come to his sense and understand, but my mom just pays too much (either getting annoying or jsut worrying about us than herself really, she needs all the strength she can get and not waste it on us) on my studies. I know, mom! Lemme do it my way.<br /><br />Is it me, or did the weather just changed without a sign of warning? The days went from cool, to warm and then to hot, almost unbearable! Well.. not that unbearable, but 32Âº C is hot enough. The only thing I can't complain about are dusk and night, as they're pretty cool now and very pleasant to be outside and take a stroll. It almost makes a person feel like they've rejuvenated.<br /><br />Nothing in particular happened these days anyways. Tomorrow will probably be boring as heck. Well, actually, I even find the classes for my driving license to get so darn boring already. It's like I'm hearing and seeing the same thing all over again, just with different people around me with each day. In the end, I bet that if I just studied the code on my own and didn't go to classes, I'd pass perfectly fine. Driving is another thing tho. I think that I'll find my adrenaline fix with Speed, but, I don't want to throw my life away. There's still too much that I want to do before reaching the end.<br /><br />It's funny. I know that life and death are pretty subjective stuff but, I get the shivers whenever I think of death. Ara, what am I babbling about, I'm still too darn young to even think about it at this time. But seeing as a life can end from one second to another, can leave you thinking. After all, we're all under the scythe.<br /><br />Depressing.. Anyways, damn yeah. Next festival takes place on July in Lisbon again, and damn, Iron Maiden, Avenged Sevenfold and Slayer are playing. I WANT TO GO. ; ; Money's something I'm short on, tho. Oh well, there's always next year. ._.<br /><br />It's really frustrating when you want to see your favorite bands playing live, but then you either have no money for it, or the tickets are already sold out. D: And they sell out pretty quickly too. And then you have those pesky friends that buy the tickets not to go, but to sell them to their friends for a higher price. Oh, how really swell of them, I hope you burn in hell for your darn greed.<br /><br />Anyways, my hands are already begging me to stop writing right now. Who'd ever think that writing in journals/blogs would be so demanding on ourselves, I guess it's just a place where you let it all out about your thoughts, likes and dislikes. Anyways, I better think of something to do tomorrow, until then.<br /><br />Cheers, Saki~<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I didn't really have anything to place under subject, so, I simply took the name of the first EP album of the Death Metal band that I'm currently listening to, Moonspell. I've got to admit, I never thought they'd be this good until I sat down and listened completely to their latest album, Night Eternal. For something made by a portuguese band that sings in English, it's completely off the charts as it's near perfect. They practically just won another fan. Now I just wished I could go to their concert tomorrow at Rock In Rio. It's so not fair. >_<<br /><br />Anyways, these last days have been boring as heck.. and I've been having quite the burden about how I'm feeling. It's the weirdest thing actually.. I feel like I'm depressed but I don't really show that lazyness and motionless attitude that most people would show when they're like that. It's weird.. I can't blame it on my music since that's basically what I listen to everyday; Death Metal, Gothic Metal, Heavy, etc. You already know that stuff. But anyways, I guess this is more of an emotional thing. As lately, me and Jas really haven't had any time to be with each other and talk about stuff. Different time zones are a real bother, but, that can be ignored. School's taking too much of her time and then there's her CCA which takes even more of it, so yeah. That meaning, I'm worried. After all, I don't really know what's going on more precisely with her and I don't know if she's not telling me anything or if she's hiding anything or whatever. I guess that's kinda what's bothering my soul. I know that this is something I should say to her, but at that time, I just do not bring it up. It's kinda of a self-protection thing or whatever that's called. oO I know that weekends can be used to take up to that lack of time, but she's having just so much to do even in weekends, with projects and stuff that involves her CCA and such. Knowing that, I tend to just go out during the weekend, spend the whole day out of my house and then get back around 3 am. Rinse and repeat the next day. That going for the last what... 3 or 4 weekends. I guess I just pour myself onto spending time with my friends. Sigh.<br /><br />Haha, why are my hands shaking at a time like this?.. This ain't the end of the world, for God's sake.<br /><br />Anyways, I guess that the lack of what's stated above has driven me into an emotional unbalance. I don't like to push people around, it's completely not like me and I don't like to bend them to what I want the most. I know that she's working hard.. well, maybe just on the practical part of her course, but heck, I miss her badly. I don't want her to sacrifice her studies because of me, but, 10/20 minutes go by as if they were mere seconds.. it's rather frustrating, I guess.. *rub head* Oh well.. if only there was an easier way for me to be closer to her.. but it's not that easy, I know. Nothing is.<br /><br />Anyways, it's June already. Summer's arriving, yet the weather's still cloudy with the tendency to rain. As for me, this school.. no, university year is over already. All I can do is just plan the next one carefully so that it won't be as shitty and full of crap as this one proved to be. I know that the first two years to get adapted are harsh, but the very organization of the university is supposed to help people get adapted, yet they simply screw it up to some people and one of them just had to be me. Oh, the irony of fate. It's as if it was done on purpose. Bleh.<br /><br />I dunno what to write anymore. It's 2:55 am, been writing this entry for about an hour now. I know deviantArt is supposed to be used mainly for storing or showing one's artistic self, but rather, here I am only writing in the journal with nothing done whatsoever. Everyone works at different paces, at least that's what I tell myself. Pardon me for the some use of foul language, but, I couldn't help myself.<br /><br />Well, I'm closing up this entry right here. I have no idea what to write anymore. I've been advancing bit by bit in Monster Hunter 2, so, I dunno if I'm going to write anything anytime soon now. Surely not how I'm feeling like now. Oh well, I better just get some shut eye and rest. I guess I'm needing it.<br /><br />Cheers, Saki~<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Ara, another journal entry because.. Yeah, you guessed it. I'm bored! Anyways, I got my contact lenses about a week ago. I'm liking them so far, but, they're such a pain to put them on. >_< I usually take about 20 minutes or so when it goes right. When it doesn't.. it can go for over an hour. I guess it's all about practice, right now. At least I haven't got any problem with taking them out, as I take less than a minute to do so. I'm pretty sure I'll be wearing glasses less and less from now on and finally put into use my new sunglasses. <3 Ohh, how long I waited for this. ;D<br /><br />Anyways, Rock In Rio 08 is starting like right in about two or three days and I'm not going again. Well, none of the bands I like are performing any concerts, so I'm not really losing anything special. I'd like to see Moonspell tho. But, going there just to see one band playing isn't exactly cheap. There's going to be another RiR in 2012 and 2014, so I might or might not go there. Kinda depends on who's going there too. =x Pity that the chances of my favorite bands performing there are close to zeeerrroooo. On the other hand, I want to play Granado Espada again, if not just to listen to it's soundtrack. It's just awesome.<br /><br />Ohohohoh, after so many years, I've finally began playing Monster Hunter 2, pity that it's completely in Japanese, but! it's playable, unlike some other story-heavy games. I haven't been much far into the game, but I can tell that it's much harder than the first one. Well, one thing's for sure tho. I love the Katana series, it's so different from the Great Sword and it plays much quicker, not to mention that it gives an attack power boost after some strikes and then has a special strike. It's just so awesome. <3 I've only slain a couple of small wyverns, but.. it's so darn fun. I want to play mooore. DDD:<br /><br />Haha~, with all this, my mind's been acting up a bit, giving me some ideas to write something. But, yeah. I get ideas but I can't seem to write anything. XD Well, shouldn't be too much a troublesome problem if I continue to get ideas. I'm hoping to make some scraps one of these days. Wish me luck. ;3<br /><br />Cheers, Saki~<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well, it's kinda been sometime since I've ever written something here in the journal besides that stuff about being tagged and stuff. A 'study week' has gone by and I haven't done squat, besides having played and watched more anime and shit. Honestly, tho, it makes me feel bad about myself. I see people forcing themselves to do stuff that they don't want to, yet I don't move a muscle to make any efforts at all.. it almost makes my head hurt somewhat. I guess I'm needing a complete overhaul about what do to from now on.. I mean, I see Jas going to classes, or if just to have attendance in order to go to exams and then having her CCA activities and stuff.. She's just trying so hard, it makes me feel weird for not doing the same. I mean, university here almost isn't worth the trouble that it is. I guess I'm just not motivated enough to go through 5 more YEARS of hearing teachers spouting nonsense out of their mouths, leaving students to just gather everything and leave them in enormous loop holes of 'subjects'. Oh well.. I always have next year to start all over. I'd rather work to get some money the rest of this year, honestly. I have things that have more priority and studying. I kinda hoped my mother would understand that, but, nooo, she just wants me to study. I kinda understand her being worried about me and my studies, but at times it just begins to get very, very, VERY annoying, I have other things I want to do! And studying isn't exactly the one thing I'm really motivated to do right now.<br /><br />On other stuff, all of the above has brought me to redownload and listen to more heavier music like Cradle Of Filth. I can't believe I thought that they sucked some years ago. Their last album, Thornography, is by far, their best album, in my opinion. DaniFilth and the rest really outdid themselves this time, especially with the Deluxe Version, I can't stress this enough, the whole album is beyond awesome.<br /><br />Of course that with an heavier atmosphere comes a heavy game. Guilty Gear XX Accent-Core Plus. Frantic-fast gameplay; killer metal soundtrack; a huge novel-like story; weird, badass, cool characters. All of that combined into the greatest 2D fighting game ever created by Daisuke Ishiwatari and the folks at Arc System Works. Been playing it the whole week, tho at a house of a friend of mine's as his PS2 can play imported games. I loved #Reload, but Accent-Core completly stole Reload's spotlight. The Story Mode of the game is what interests me the most, as the whole cast of 25ish characters all have their own routes, with some characters endings clashing with others, coming into a conclusion into the game's storyline. This has placed me into the mood of wanting to write a fanfic of Guilty Gear, which I'm still putting some thoughts into. I may or may not write. It kinda depends on how it turns out and when I complete the game's story 100%.<br /><br />..Lol @ me using this as a blog/diary. Well, I kinda just needed to let out some of the steam in my brain.<br /><br />Cheers, Saki~<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Been like 2 days, since my last journal entry. I should've written something up by now, but my imagination won't start. ; ; This is depresssing. But anyways, I've discussed some stuff with my <3 and pretty much got the basic ideas to begin writing some stuff. I just don't hope I'll take ages to just make the prologue for it. I really need to being writing. >_<<br /><br />Alright, ever since I saw this on <a href="http://tatenshi.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/t/a/tatenshi.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":icontatenshi:" title="tatenshi"/></a> 's journal, I've been planning on doing it, but never remember about it, till now. So, here it goes, I guess.<br /><br />HOW ARE YOU FEELING TODAY?<br />Daisuke Ishiwatari - Pride and Glory<br />~ Completetly instrumental.. Oh well, it's got a pretty nice beat, but I guess it pretty much generalizes how I feel most of day, full of pride and glory~.<br /><br />WILL YOU GET FAR IN LIFE?<br />Judas Priest - Hellrider<br />~ I dunno, judging by this, it's almost like it's saying that I'll live after death as some kind of fighting god. =x I know this is silly.<br /><br />HOW DO YOUR FRIENDS SEE YOU?<br />Judas Priest - Metal Meltdown<br />~ Uh. Well, sorta. I have friends that call me the "Power Metal guy". I guess it's accurate in someway. Rock on~! \m\<br /><br />WILL YOU GET MARRIED?<br />Iced Earth - The Coming Curse<br />~ ...Really, what's up with this!? Judging by this, it's more than likely that I will get married in the end. =x<br /><br />WHAT IS YOUR BEST FRIEND'S THEME SONG?<br />Velvet Revolver - Just Sixteen<br />~ ..Kinda true. While he's 3/4 years older than me, he's much less mature than me.. Well, I guess it's just life. =x<br /><br />WHAT IS THE STORY OF YOUR LIFE?<br />Slayer - Behind the Crooked Cross<br />~ ...Another one that makes me think needlessly. I didn't really need to fight for anything in my life until now, I guess. I think it fits my RP character tho. =x<br /><br />WHAT IS HIGH SCHOOL LIKE?<br />Shootie HG - Sworn Through Swords<br />~ Guess it's true. But you're sworn to study and get decent marks instead of being sworn through swords. Ah, gotta love the recent Devil May Cry songs done by Shootie HG. <3<br /><br />HOW CAN YOU GET AHEAD IN LIFE?<br />Dream Theater - About to Crash<br />~ That doesn't sound too good, honestly. But, life's full of obstacles, right? He just need to get over them and keep on going!<br /><br />WHAT IS THE BEST THING ABOUT YOUR FRIENDS?<br />L'Arc~En~Ciel - C'est la vie<br />~ I swear, hearing Laruku singing in FRENCH. Oh lord. Anyways, friends are an important part of life, we can have as many as we want, they support us when we're feeling down, to spend time with and have fun, etc. In short, best thing about friends is having them.<br /><br />WHAT IS IN STORE FOR THIS WEEKEND?<br />SoundTemp - Calmi Cuori Appassionati<br />~ Granado Espada, how I miss this awesome game with it's godly soundtrack. <3 I guess the title is pretty much obvious.. =x<br /><br />THE BEST THING TO DESCRIBE YOUR GRANDPARENTS?<br />Iron Maiden - Be Quick or Be Dead<br />~ ..No comments. I really like my grandparents, they're like the best people in the world. <3<br /><br />HOW IS YOUR LIFE GOING?<br />MAXIMUM THE HORMONE - Koi no Megalover<br />~ ..Can't find lyrics. But, I think the last part of the title speaks of itself. -shrugs-<br /><br />WHAT SONG WILL THEY PLAY AT YOUR FUNERAL?<br />Rhapsody - Echoes of Tragedy<br />~ Ohh. This makes me feel like someone really important. 'Echoes of tragedy carved on my steel/in this neverending fight against the beast/soldiers of twilight turn back to hell/burn in your fire or glory for me will be your end.' Or maybe not..<br /><br />HOW DOES THE WORLD SEE YOU?<br />Iron Maiden - Gates Of Tomorrow<br />~ Isn't the younger generation always seen as the better future? It's always like that. =x<br /><br />WILL YOU HAVE A HAPPY LIFE?<br />David Baker, Shawn McPherson - Devils Never Cry<br />~ That can only lead to something good, right? Never cry only means that.. well, it's generally something good. =x<br /><br />WHAT DO YOUR FRIENDS REALLY THINK OF YOU?<br />Symphony X - Masquerade<br />~ I'm not hiding anything! Honest! Well, maybe a thing of two. But, I'm like an open book!<br /><br />DO PEOPLE SECRETLY LUST AFTER YOU?<br />Daisuke Ishiwatari - Awe Of She<br />~ ...How am I supposed to even say anything? Other than, this song really rocks. Hm?<br /><br />HOW CAN I MAKE MYSELF HAPPY?<br />Cradle Of Filth - All Hope In Eclipse<br />~ Crap, and one happened yesterday night. There's always another one 2 years time, so. Plenty of time. =x<br /><br />WHAT SHOULD YOU DO WITH YOUR LIFE?<br />Judas Priest - Rock Forever<br />~ It's my intention to do so. Rock on~ again! /m/<br /><br />WILL YOU EVER HAVE CHILDREN?<br />L'Arc~En~Ciel - fate<br />~ It's only natural, right?<br /><br />WHAT SONG WOULD YOU STRIP TO?<br />L'Arc~En~Ciel - Pretty girl<br />~ ...Winamp,... ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Ah, what a life. Even though I should attempt to write something up, be it original work or a fanfiction of sorts, I don't seem to be able to come up with anything decent these days. Maybe this university student life is just ruining my imagination with stress and what not. Having to wake up early, running for the train, bus, classes, etc, makes a person tire so easily. Arrg, what I'd give to just sit by the computer and put my mind into writing something, while keeping accompanied by my <3.<br /><br />I'm even having trouble finding the right words to make this journal entry, so that you can see how bad my mind/imagination is at the moment. Words just seem to run away from me, instead of pilling up to use them whenever I need. I guess you can call it writer's block, a really big writer's block. I guess that's how it is. Reading, playing, etc, nothing seems to even pop up the slightest of ideas that can work into something..  let's say 'write-able'.<br /><br />I guess my moments of sudden inspiration have somewhat 'expired'. Even though I've been having an urge to write something again. I guess, I just need to place some thought onto it and come up with something to write about. I know this sounds just like any other rant, but bear with me, please. I'll have something written, anytime soon.. or late. XD<br /><br />Guess that's all for now. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /><br /><br />Cheers, Saki~<br /><br /> ]]></description>
