life in otoge

boo!

piratelicker — Tue, 21 Oct 2014 16:41:14 GMT

I rly feel like I wanna get back into blogging about my daily life again. But when I get to the compose page... nothing comes to mind. il||li ＿|￣|○ il||l

It's nearly the end of the year and you know what that means.... doujin hell. I really don't miss you at all but why the heck do I go thru it every year?

adding more plastic to my collection

piratelicker — Fri, 17 Oct 2014 18:09:41 GMT

Fulfilling an old wish? Lol I rly did wanted to get this Snow Miku back then but the exclusive price was too high for my liking. Now a year later, I got it real cheap since it's 2nd hand lol

Yea the real reason why I bought it ﾆﾔｰﾘ♡(´^ิ∀^ิ｀*)

gs4 kureeeeeee

piratelicker — Mon, 17 Mar 2014 15:59:34 GMT

Sorry guys, my TMGS swag is not strong enough to summon GS4 orz

probably a dumb post

piratelicker — Sun, 16 Feb 2014 14:36:12 GMT

This is gonna sound dumb but I see news reports on places being snowed in and flooded... and I'm feeling rather envious of that situation orz Can you blame me? 33C weather is not a fucking joke, especially when u had no rain for 3 solid weeks. Very weather much wow. Not.

So what else is happening in the land of Reins? Um... I am in the possession of brother's iPod nano and deciding what to put in it? lol if you have been following the twitter, u'd know that I hardly listen to music these days. It's mostly drama CDs now so which CD should i put in?????? Everything's in my phone (bless that thing for multitasking my life, honestly)???

fuck this weather

piratelicker — Tue, 04 Feb 2014 13:52:49 GMT

(╬ﾟ◥益◤ﾟ) FUCK. THIS. HEAT.

My base of operations aka my bedroom is ridiculously warm atm. The secondary fan does nothing to cool me off, all it does it blow hot air unto my face??!

Currently taking refuge with the laptop in another room and kinda bored (a bit), Since the desktop PC is the one with everything aka games, anime and bookmarks orz

Whomever said that we'd have cooler days ahead deserves a slap from me （╬ಠ益ಠ)ｺﾞﾙァ!!

CNY blues? not really

piratelicker — Sat, 01 Feb 2014 15:39:41 GMT

Happy Lunar New Year 2014~

I was saying the other day, this CNY didnt feel all that special to me but hey I got to eat yee sang twice so far. I have a good feeling for this year :)

I hope this year I will have more drive/determination to complete my projects!

time is something i am not good at

piratelicker — Wed, 22 Jan 2014 01:21:27 GMT

I kinda lost my gaming drive, only to have gained my art drive instead orz

I wish these two hobbies of mine can co-exist but it seems I don't have the skills to pull both off. If only there were more hours in a day _(:3」∠)

I've been drawing a lot of DiaLov in order to encourage myself to pick up the FD but it's not working lol

fuck you, weather

piratelicker — Mon, 16 Dec 2013 21:19:54 GMT

The Weather. is. so. bipolar.

I'm dying from the heat this week and I was soaked to the bone last week from the torrential rain. Make up your bloody mind, weather!

I'm also kinda bummed coz I broke my psp ;A; Hopefully the shop can fix it.

i need to stop disappearing

piratelicker — Tue, 10 Dec 2013 09:22:51 GMT

random updates from my life; currently working on preparing for Comic Fiesta. the usual way how I spend my year's end. We made a Fire Emblem Awakening book and another Tokimeki MGS book lol

Oh I also took a short trip to Tokyo during Oct. It was cold.

/waves to whoever's reading

Tokires lately...

piratelicker — Tue, 13 Aug 2013 03:18:20 GMT

IS A HUGE PAIN IN THE BUTT uurrrgghhhh

Seriously felt like throwing bottles at Kirishima, that ass.

rated E for exciting

piratelicker — Sat, 03 Aug 2013 16:12:00 GMT

Wow, that is an interesting number to stumble on while playing Tokires. (You can laugh at me for the lame restaurant name.)

Yes, my life is horribly exciting atm w w w I just finished Kento's quest. 5 more to go!

not dead yet /punched

piratelicker — Fri, 02 Aug 2013 18:31:39 GMT

This pretty much explains the state of my mind these days. I AM NOT GOMEN LOL

What I would like to apologize to IS my wallet since I'm already buying merchandise and only 4 episodes have been aired OMG THERE IS SOMETHING IN THE POOLWATER AFTER ALL ∑q|ﾟДﾟ|pﾜｵｫ

Speaking of merchandise; I managed to get the Raidou D-arts lol he stands out in my figure corner ヾ(＠^▽^＠)ﾉわはは He'll have Jack Frost nendo for company.

feeling like grilled chicken

piratelicker — Tue, 14 May 2013 14:16:49 GMT

I could be wrong but I think we're stuck in a reaaallly bad heatwave for the past week x____x

Anyway I celebrated my birthday on the 10th. Thanks for the well wishes on twitter and FB, guys^^ I got cake and my bro took me out to lunch, it was good.

In other news, I got myself a 3DS (two months ago) since my last LJ post lol (I got it on a whim since someone was selling it, used at a real low price)

And I got Fire Emblem: Awakening on a whim since 3DS-chan needed a game and so.... I'm forever stuck in Ylisse haw haw haw I'm too busy grinding for support conversations! Ending the game can wait lol ~~Me and my tendency to start games and never end them orz~~

February didnt change much

piratelicker — Thu, 21 Feb 2013 03:04:49 GMT

Here comes your usual monthly update~ ~~just to show I'm still alive lol~~

Vday came and went. BAH HUMBUG LOL And I started getting back to my otoge groove :D Still playing Tasogare... I think the highlight so far was Mitsugu's route TvT I love his best/good endings.

I also got an Xbox. Just for Kinect really lol (I rly dont fancy the Wiimote and Move baton) Load it with some dance games and I'm good to do. Although I do realize I'm the world's shittiest dancer pfffttt but it's okay I'll just dance any way I want.

I'm gonna start I3 Japanese tomorrow :D Kinda excited although I kinda FORGET EVERYTHING I LEARNT SO FAR AHAHAHAHAH ~~my puny brain cant do much~~

2013 has been rather uneventful

piratelicker — Fri, 18 Jan 2013 15:29:37 GMT

So far, what I have been doing so far is gathering info and reading material for doujin projects for this year? Pretty humdrum stuff.... although I think I really should reconsider about making a HachiKuro comic IDK HOW DO YOU MAKE A FANCOMIC FOR THAT??? I will never be as poignant as Umino Chika orz ||||

Just let me practice drawing ossans sobs

I really need to get into my otoge gaming mood. I haven't touched a game since November. I've been trying to get myself hyped by listening to Tasogaredoki voice samples ^q^ I'm pretty excited about the game teehee

goodbye 2012

piratelicker — Fri, 28 Dec 2012 04:07:55 GMT

I'm not sure how many of you are still on LJ (lol) but I hope u had a lovely Xmas. And I hope u guys will have a Happy New Year too :DDDD

CF2012 came and left, it was fun having ryo_hakkai over and manning a booth with limbebe

Our usual hijinks post-CF

X'mas eve HOWEVER!!!!! I foolishly went and played Taiko and... terribly injured the muscles in my arms orzzzzz I'm sorry I have no upper arm strength orzzz EFFIN PAINFUL XMAS EVE IN MY LIFE (lying on the bed racked with pain hahahahaha) Anyway I've recovered from that :P

I think I'll spend NYE chilling out in front of the TV lol See you guys in 2013!

dusty journal

piratelicker — Sat, 15 Dec 2012 15:32:08 GMT

/knocks the pages to clear some dust

So... how you doin? /punched

Me? In the middle of CF prep here, as you can see we got stuff prepared and stickers to be cut.

Besides those, I received stuff I ordered lately (truly a nice way to end the year with) which is mostly clothes and the UtaPri Petit Nendo set XDDD I'm glad I preordered this ~~and thankfully I wasn't scammed lol~~

I got an extra Masato so I know who I'm gonna sell it to lol Anyway, I cant wait for my CF holiday to start YEAAAHHH AVOIDING THE PPL AT WORK IS THE BEST (pls don't try this at home, kids)

I've gotten a lot better since the last journal entry. I even got a wisdom tooth removed and went thru 2 weeks of pain ;__; I'M ALL BETTER NOW~

health woes

piratelicker — Wed, 28 Nov 2012 06:44:18 GMT

Nope, I still haven't cleared that nasty cough/flu thing and I had minor dental surgery yesterday. So I ended with medical leave for 4 days.

Like I mentioned to a friend, I would have enjoyed the time off if only I wasn't in pain sobs

I need to force myself to work on that doujin cover. So I can continue to wallow in my misery.

turning the page

piratelicker — Mon, 19 Nov 2012 15:00:19 GMT

Well I think I'm 88% cured from whatever-it-is that ravaged my poor throat :) At least my voice is back~

December will come soon and it will mark one year after my mother's passing. Unsure what do I feel about that. I'm not even sure if I'll even notice it when the day comes. What am I supposed to do on that day. I... just don't know.

drowning in your spit

piratelicker — Wed, 14 Nov 2012 12:08:20 GMT

Haven't been too peachy these past two weeks. Throat infection gone bad -> currently, lost my voice orz ||| Plus my sinuses are flaring up so I haven't been sleeping well either :(

Well at least I got sick AFTER my doujin is done so I can afford to take it easy atm. (Well, not 100% done. There is a cover to do :P)

In other life updates, the maid (under my mom's employ) will leave us next month. So by then, it's back to living the hard bacholerette life for me. Cleaning and washing with my own hands, been long since I did that lol

pain

piratelicker — Sat, 06 Oct 2012 04:38:17 GMT

So the other day I went to the dentist because my gums were hurting -- TURNS OUT IT'S MY LAST TWO WISDOM TEETH TROLLING ME AND HEY WE GOTTA REMOVE THEM sobs

ORZ

Well the dentist warned me this would happen when we removed teeth no3 two years ago. The dentist last week told me these two aren't that hard to extract, compared to last time. Still doesn't make me happy/glad though.
The surgery is scheduled for next month so I'll quietly suffer until then :/

oh noes

piratelicker — Fri, 05 Oct 2012 07:43:28 GMT

I think my lil subdomain (where I used to keep my winskins) died? LOL

I'll prolly resurrect it again at a free webhosting place tonight. IDK I liked the lil thing, it deserves to live on the internet (eventho I havent been updating in yonks)

I considered setting up a blogger there BUT WHAT'S THE POINT WHEN I HAVE LJ LOLOLOL

:D

piratelicker — Tue, 02 Oct 2012 14:44:26 GMT

Guessed who finished her doujin pages?

I'm not totally out of the woods yet though, there's the other things that need to be done i.e. cover, atogaki and getting the other pages^^

Well this year is less hectic since I'm only submitting to one book but I'm rather surprised I finished it ahead of schedule lol

new anime rants

piratelicker — Sun, 23 Sep 2012 12:38:42 GMT

Amnesia anime
was announced a few months ago and they just revealed the animators in charge; Brainbase. BB did some good shows i.e Natsume Yuujinchou.... but I'm really non confident about how the anime storyline will turnout. ANOTHER FRIENDZONE END, I predict orz
I'm not really digging the anime art either.

Brothers Conflict the anime....
When I found out about this, OH MAN I WAS RAGING ｺﾞ━━━━(# ﾟДﾟ)━━━━ﾙｧ!!
HELLO DENGEKI HOW CAN U RELEASE AN ANIME WHEN BRILLIANT BLUE ISNT EVEN OUT YETTT??? キ━━ミﾟ皿ﾟ;彡━━ッ！ OTOMATE U PROMISED IT WILL BE OUT THIS YEAR BUT IT'S SEPTEMBER AND WE HAD NO NEWS SINCE MAY DAFUQQQQQQ
Ugh... idk, maybe I would be happy about it IF BB was out by now. Releasing an anime now is like giving me the impression that companies are just milking the franchise. -_-

I guess it's becoming a trend where a successful otoge will get an anime adaptation in the future. Otoge has entered mainstream media by 2012.

And now for something different;

Aoi Sekai no Chuushin de
Frankly I wasn't even interested in this, until I found out it's a parody of Sega vs Nintendo console wars LMAO
Unsure if I'll watch it but u gotta admit the plot/characters are lol

so I tried out this game demo

piratelicker — Tue, 04 Sep 2012 14:38:33 GMT

Pretty much what happened yesterday when I was trying out the Dragon Essence demo game. Which caused the whole MING JIIEEEEEEEE explosion on twitter lololol

Childhood friend guy grew up into a A FINE YOUNG MAN. A FINE YOUNG MAN INDEED.

blurb: Dragon Essence is an English otoge/visual novel by Zeiva. You can try the demo here (2 chapters). If you’re interested in a story set in a medieval Chinese setting with mythology (there be dragons!), you should give this game a try. It’s pretty fun. The four?? capturable guys seen in the demo are cute lol I wish I could say more but it’s a demo so we’re barely begun to scratch the surface.
