Hypnotuned: Origa - Lullaby

The learning curve

Had a pretty good meeting this morning. All my presentation materials were supposedly well done, so by the time I began to speak, the PMO cut in and did the presentation for me.

The developing zit on my left cheek didn’t really help my appearance too, so it was a good thing.

Problem is, I’m now left with more work to do! ‘Facilitate’ the reconciliation of a missing 5 million ringgit. It’s an euphemism of ‘Write a paper and let someone else sign’.

I hate writing papers.

Better news is that I’ve finished the Kaikan Phrase anime. The story ends at a certain arc, which shows the band as successful at one point, but there’s still a lot more climbing to do. I hear there are 10 volumes of the manga, which are clearly shoujo-ish, but which I’m still tempted to collect. It’s going to be a bitch, though, having been licensed recently.

Now I’m slowly downloading Inu Yasha, which won’t be done in a while seeing how it’s hard to find torrents of earlier episodes. And there are pockets of them which I can’t find either.

Meanwhile, I’ll just have to make do with Origa’s Era of Queens album, as well as other things I shouldn’t mention here. Heh….

Missed today’s squash session. Will try to squeeze in for Wednesday, before dinner and The Incredibles.

Brain food

Know a feeling where you can’t put down a very good book? Even when it’s 4am in the morning and you have to be at the office by 8am?

That’s the case for me right now. I can’t stop clicking on the next episode of Kaikan Phrase!!! Fortunately, I only have 2 episodes left, since the torrent for the next batch isn’t done.

Sigh…

Love Stinks! Yea Yeah!

Ugh.

Kaikan Phrase episode 19: The love arc begins.

O M G. I thought the Kaikan Phrase manga was just a spin off the anime. Looks like it’s about to begin moving. :O I hope this doesn’t continue all the way.

Kaikan Phrase episode 20: Flashback. Typical. :(

Work Sucks

It’s back to the usual schedule for me, altho not as strenuous. Even with all the work to keep me busy 8 to 5, I try to stick to that schedule.

On Monday, I skived work. Main reason was: I couldn’t find my car keys. And I still can’t find them till today. Well, I was still tired from the busy week, so it was a good opportunity to delay the inevitable and to run some errands in town.

Too bad I don’t have enough leave to continue this trend.

So the day was spent having breakfast with Merv in Kelana Jaya, then heading off to town, picking up Henry in the process, to settle my Citibank bill. Then we moved towards Sungei Wang and Low Yat for the usual activities. A quick stop at Mandy’s shop to get MGS 3, NFSU 2, GITS SAC English version, + some others. Got myself a new controller too, but will not be breaking it in till the dying one is devastated by my brother’s thumbing.

Then a detour to the arcade for some Percussion Master. As always, Merv has the best eye coordination. I’m still a Taiko no Tatsujin freak, though. And we also had a quick round of Battle Gear 3.

And on to the main event: Low Yat. Picked up the additional space I needed for my download binge. 200GB should be enough for now. Also got myself some folders for all the CDs lying about.

Of course, the night ended with mahjong.

History repeats itself daily. Except for the skiving part.

Think I’ll take a break tonight.

Meanwhile, downloaded Kaikan Phrase up to episode 32. Whee! At least I’ve got something to do tonight.
