THE MOVING BLOGS!

Ok, So the journal type blogs aren't very nice. It's too damn serious... I need to take a break. NOT! I'm not taking a break, I'm just creating another blog! I'll try to update this blog once a week, so don't despair. ^_^ Here's a few choice pics of what's gonna happen at the new blog. Or, if you want, you can go there now!SerpentAndCross.BlogSpot.Com

†Journal # 18 :: Falling...‡
†Date & Time: 15th of June, 2006; 3:14pm‡
†Weather: Hot in the morn, then a sudden cold downpour... T_T ‡
†‡

Suilan, Mellonamin!

Darn it, I really wish I can update the blogs more. I thought my obsession with RFOnline would be until I become a Knight, but look! Look here:














I'm a Knight already, I even went up to Level 31, but still, I keep buying Level Up Cards. *sigh* Anyways, it seems that everything is deciding to fall into their proper places... I just hope nothing breaks. Weird huh? I'm doing nothing, yet everything going fine... Firstly, My Summer Academics was overwhelming, but I got passing marks. Yes, passing marks. Next, Aubrey probably have a long list of things I promised I would do but did not (I honestly cannot!) and an even longer list of what to do to me when she sees me again, but when we saw each other yesterday...guess what? Nothing. Yes, she smiled at me like nothing's amiss, and I'm all dumbfounded. Also, Joy, the current chairman of KB[slash]GG (Kapisanan ng mga Babaeng // Galit kay Gaius) smiled at me on the first day of classes. It was a sign. She actually recognized my presence. Maybe she's stepping down from her charimanship...or maybe someone's stepping up. My mom and dad arrived from australia, and a lot things happened on their first week here. Money was stolen, as well as jewelry. Dad had a buisness going on an hour after he touched down on the phils. *sigh* Some events are good, some are bad, but most of the things in my life right now... is miraculously fine. The only one missing is...Rein.

†To Read, Write, and Listen‡
†Tattered, by:chubby-cheeks-10‡

He held your hand
And it's heaven for you;
Don't you know that
It is hell for me?

Everytime you laugh together,
My heart is crushed to pieces;
Everytime you smile at each other,
My angst-filled world becomes darker.

How I wish that I can stop this pain
From overwhelming me
But there's nothing I can do
Except to sit in a dark corner and hold my broken heart.

†Journal # 17 :: Weeky Happenings...‡
†Date & Time: 3rd of June, 2006; 1:44am‡
†Weather: Cold. ~_~‡
†‡

Suilan, Mellonamin!

A lot has happened. Really... Ok then, to enumerate some: First, my Corite Warrior got to level 29. I'll post a screenshot later. Next, my Digimon, Seph just evolved to DemiDevimon. Here's my Digimon Profile, and my adventure thread. Also, my classes in school is over, but I'm really worried about my grades.. The DBMS was a bit too close to failure (I'm expecting a 7x in my CompCard, I just hope I pass...) while my Rizal Class is not too diferent. *sigh* A couple of bumps, a couple of boosts, I guess my core belief is really manifesting in my life eh? (Serpent and Cross...I'll explain some other time). Oh, and my mom and dad is coming home..a bit later. We're going to the airport at about 2:00pm, and to be honest, I'm not too cool about it. Why? Because I enjoyed the relative freedom I had when they're not here, and also because I'd have my gametime at RF virtually wasted. Yup, my obession is still grating on...

Anyways, I really hope to enjoy this remaining week of my summer, so I hope my parents don't plan on going to malls or entertaining guests every single day...

Things I downloaded since I got the PLDT myDSL:
> Episodes 1 to 15 of Gakuen Alice
> Episodes 1 to 26 of Samurai 7 (Complete!)
> Episodes 1 to 6 of Digimon Savers
> Episodes 1 to 50 of Gundam SEED Destiny (Complete!)
> Episodes 1 to 6 of Makai Senki Disgaea
> Gundam SEED OAV: Astray Red Frame
> Heroes of Might & Magic V (PC Software)
> PowerISO (PC Software)
> Rise of Nations: Rise of Legends (PC Software)
> Episodes 1 to 14 of Digimon Frontier

Downloading:
> Episodes 14 to 43 of Digimon Frontier

All of those thanks to Azureus BitTorrent Client! ^_^

†Tournament Report‡ 
†Spills & Thrills‡

Tekken V Tournament Report:
The tourney was cancelled due to the malfunctioning of my Playstation 2 console. Basically, it won't read the disc. I have no idea why, but have to cancel the tourney because of it. ~_~

Magic: The Gathering Tournament Report:
Here it is, staight from the DCI Reporter:

























Ok then, see ya next tournament!

†Gathering the Magic‡
†Updating the Decklist...yet again‡

In the light of my last tournament brawl, I decided to add some twists on my deck since I saw that I was particulary vulnerable to weenie rush tactics.

// Deck file for Magic Workstation (http://www.magicworkstation.com)

// Lands
7 [UNH] Island
7 [UNH] Mountain
4 [UNH] Plains
1 [UNH] Forest
1 [CHK] Minamo, School at Water's Edge

// Creatures
3 [DIS] Simic Sky Swallower
2 [CHK] Keiga, the Tide Star

// Spells
4 [9E] Mana Leak
4 [9E] Annex
4 [DIS] Azorius Signet
4 [DIS] Simic Signet
4 [9E] Wildfire
3 [RAV] Faith's Fetters
3 [RAV] Three Dreams
2 [RAV] Dream Leash
2 [9E] Icy Manipulator
2 [9E] Confiscate
2 [9E] Exhaustion
2 [RAV] Copy Enchantment

// Sideboard
SB: 4 [RAV] Remand
SB: 4 [NE] Seal of Fire
SB: 4 [9E] Pyroclasm
SB: 2 [CHK] Sensei's Divining Top
SB: 1 [9E] Exhaustion

New Additions: Exhaustion, Copy Enchantment and a third Three Dreams. Why? Exhaustion is there to stem the bleeding when the weenies attack (I can't include Holy Day or Ethereal Haze beacuse my mana primarily comes from the 8 blue signets) while the copy enchantment is a turn five Annex with enough mana left for a Mana Leak. The third Three Dreams is there because I can't seem to draw it consistently. Well, that's that in my Magic World.

†Teknologos‡
† PDA Phone Galore‡
I want the Palm Treo 700w. I want it I want it I want it!!! *sigh* Here's the specs. What I liked the most on the PDA-Phone is that it uses Microsoft Windows Mobile 5, which has Microsoft Office Mobile. That software would simplify my problems about having not enough paper to wirte ideas into. Also, It has a full suite of much needed gadgets that's unavailable in other PDAs or Phones out there, such as accessories to connect to an external router (Which we'll be getting sometime later) and a 1.3 MegaPix Digital camera... Darn it, I really want this Treo... ~_~

†To Read, Write and Listen‡
† : One Answer Too Late : ‡
by: kaasutii

He asks me that questions
How do I answer?
Do I say yes?
Or do I say no?
I am speechless...

He asks me again
What do I do?
Can I tell him the truth?
Or will I tell him the lies?

He looks at me and heavily sighs
What is he thinking?
What would he say?
How do I ask him?

He turns and begins to walk
Can I stop him?
Do I spare him my feelings?
Do I spare him at all?

~

I ask her The Question
What will she say?
Will she say yes?
Or will she say no?
She is speechless

I ask her again
What will she say?
Can she tell me the truth?
Or will she tell me the lies?

I look at her silence and sigh
What will she say?
What is she thinking?
How do I ask her?

I turn with a tear in my eye
That means no...
She has no feelings
None at all

~

She calls his name and he turns around
"Of course I love you!" she says to his face
"And I love you, too."
He replies, and walks on

†Journal # 16 :: Jess wrote a book‡

†Date & Time: 26th of May, 2006; 10:46am‡

†Weather: Typical summer day. It’s so darn boring…‡

†‡

Suilan, Mellonamin!

Ate Beth helped me far more than she ever thought. Ironic though, that I realized my inabilities due our little…argument. It was when we…discussed…what God’s will is, was when it begun…the realization of what happened before, why I am this way today, and more importantly, who I really am. Quite deep eh? Essentially, I realized I can apply what I learned from my Psychology class to my life. I am afraid of people. It’s some kind of a social phobia. That’s aside from my IQ>EQ thing, of course: Read Link. Thanks to Ms. Jessica Zafra, by the way…Her blog’s are on my Links list.

That aside, how did I ended up with such phobia? It’s very simple. Once, when I was a kid, someone (Parents, Cousins, Titas or Titos, I can’t remember) locked me in the bathroom. I was merely 4 to 5 years of age. I don’t know why. I don’t want to know. It was only when I stopped struggling to get out did the bastard open the damn door. It took me quite a while before I can recall it (Why? I’ll explain later), but I’m quite sure it was why I’m a bit too quiet. I shut myself up to the world, because there’s something I want. Something I need. I have to get out of the bathroom, so I stop struggling. I stop and be quiet. My antisocialist tendency was a trauma.

There’s huge chunks of my life that all blurry and dark. I suppose those are suppressed memories. Why are they suppressed, I don’t want to know.

So, how did Ate Beth help me? Simple: She help me realized what I truly believe, the Ttruth, Veritas. Ate Beth told me that there’s more than one way, that you can go astray, that you can choose not to follow God’s Will. I do not believe so. Why? Because there is only one Way, Jesus is always at your side to show you the path, and you cannot go astray – you can only stop. You cannot choose not to follow God’s Will, because whatever you choose, that is God’s Will. How come? Because if that is not so, then my existence, is a void. If the flaming darkfriend did not lock me in the bathroom, then who am I today? I am who I am, because I choose to be myself. And that is God’s Will. I wish I can elaborate more, I wish I can explain what’s in my mind, put the fragments of though into sentences, but I cannot. You have to realize it yourself, or it would be pointless.

PS> Jess wrote “The Subsect”, though only 500 copies were printed. Can’t relate? Watch Gilmore Girls. ^_^

†Journal # 15 :: Calm...Before the storm...?‡
†Date & Time: 052106, Sunday, 11:35pm‡
†Weather: Still havn't decided yet‡
†‡

Suilan, Mellonamin!

Here's the rates for a stay in Villa Escudero. My mom wishes to to see them. That aside though, my saturday was a bit hectic. I woke up a bit too late (as usual) and arrived at the school 10 minutes after 9am. Which is 10 minutes after Mr. Rivera gave a quiz. ~_~ Anyways, after a long discussion, another quiz was given (Which I'm sure I nailed) and we were dismissed one and a half hour earlier (10:30am). Which sucks. Because we were bound to Robinsons Galeria after we assemble at Jolibee at 12:00nn. So, I have to kill some time (by playing RFOnline, of course) before deciding to eat at Jolibee when It's 11:45. The Crispy Bangus Belly was awesome. Anyways, JM and the gang appeared. They have get some shots (Immunity booster, or something) on a clinic near JPRizal Hospital, so we have to wait. Until 3:00pm. Yup, we finnaly went to robinsons when it's about 3:30pm, so we arrived there at 6:00pm. After a few card trades and a few binder checks, I got what I need (A couple of Simic Sky Swallowers and a Three Dreams). So I looked for the book I needed for my Rizal Class. After I bought those (As well as the latest Gadgets Magazine) my berks finally realized the time. And that we're starving. So, we went to the Festival Mall (I don't know why we didn't just eat then and there) to eat. And discovered that they're closed since it's already 9:30pm. We looked around, and saw that KFC's still open and went there to eat. I got home at around 11:20pm.

Whew. What a day. But still, It was nice, since the next week would be Finals Week. ~_~

The deck is composed of every color except black, but it's mainly a UW Aura deck, splashing red for Wildfire and green for Simic Sky Swallower. The deck still hasn't rolled out of the Vaults since I'm lacking Faith's Fetters and Azorius Signets. But still, I'm quite sure that the deck would turn out to be a powerful one, just like my Annex-Wildfire deck now.

†The Tournament Report‡
†Shortest Report Ever‡

A tournament would be held here in my house this May 27, 2006. It would be a Mgic Tourney (Entrance Fee: 25.00, prize: 1x 9th Edition Booster Pack) care of Phillip, who would also be our Head Judge, and a Tekken Tournament. Both tourneys would be held from 1:00pm onwards, and we're expecting at least 10 contestants on each of the tourneys.

I will post the details later coz I'm a bit sleepy...

†Journal Entry # 14 :: The week that was‡
†Weather: Stormy and Sunny...at the same time. Believe me, It looks really weird...‡
†‡

Suilan, Mellonamin!

Still, my obession with Rising Force stil hasn't abated. *sigh* A lot things happened... Some good, some bad, but most of them are opportunities. And to a good man, there's no such thing as 'wasted' opportunity. Fortunately, I'm not a good man. I'm a bloody tactician, for crying out loud, I create opportunities! So, those aside, here's a quick run down. Monday: I saw Rain. That's big enough news to merit a whole paragrah, but I'll restrain myself. Next, tuesday: Midterm Exam in DBMS, Lecture then Lab after a thirty minute break. Oh, and Gilmore Girls was on Channel 23. It was a nice, refreshing break. Wedensday, Midterm Exams in Rizal, and we recieved an extra task to compensate for the lost field trip. Thurday, we passed the extra article, which I will post a bit later. Friday: That's today. I'm hoping to be level 24 in RFOnline, as well as regaining the lost Disena I'm spending.
Well, that's that. Next:

†Elite-ranista Academe‡
†Rizal Article‡

A Night in Austria: How Rizal sired Hitler
By: Erik Gaius L. Capistrano
Dr. José Protacio Mercado Rizal y Alonzo Realonda. Philippine national hero, foremost literary prodigy of his time, and a known womanizer (Albeit some claims that he is gay). Der Fuehrer Adolf Hitler. Leader of the National Socialist German Workers Party (Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei or NSDAP), better known as the Nazi Party, and, through his decisions, killed a huge amount of people in his lifetime. With the huge paradigm shift concerning their personalities, ideals and the result of their actions, it seems impossible that the two persons can actually be related, much less father and son, yes?

Wrong.

It seems that there’s a quite a bit of substance to be seen when one digs deep enough, and since I’ve been looking into the matter for three days now (in the Internet, the College Library and even once in the Rizal Shrine), I’m confident in the information I gathered. The quickest way to prove that Hitler is related to Rizal is, of course, through his parents. Hitler was born on April 20, 1889, which means that he was probably conceived sometime in August 1888. Incidentally, Rizal was in Europe from May 24, 1888 until October 1891, traveling from London to Ghent. Rizal did pass through Hitler’s hometown, Linz, and even stayed there long enough for him find his missing diamond stickpin. It was found by a maid in the hotel he stayed in Brunn. Coincidentally, it was written in Hitler’s biographies that his Mother, Klara Polzl, became a maid at one time.

It’s also glaringly obvious that Maria Clara in Rizal’s Noli Me Tangere isn’t pure Filipino. Did you notice? Maria Clara. A reference to his relationship with Klara Polzl? Also, the description Rizal gave about Noli’s female protagonist was a bit European too. It’s also a known fact that Rizal finished Noli Me Tangere in Berlin. Berlin, Germany, Europe.

That, I think, is the rationale behind such a fantastic claim based on information that can be gathered from any High School textbook on Rizal and any good biography of Adolf Hitler. Naturally, this can only be done through selective use of the evidence, but it does make for an amusing piece of historical fiction. It’s interesting what a night of “unwinding” might actually mean, yes? Those aside, I have read a few excerpts in Maximo Viola’s journals about his travels in Austria, and it did talk about Rizal meeting someone, I quote, a figure of a temptress in the form of a Viennese woman. More evidence?

Nonetheless, Rizal further uncovered some truths while on his stay there in Austria: The inspiration the towns and scenery of the country provided adequate ambience for Rizal to finish his first Novel Masterpiece, Noli Me Tangere. He realized what the Filipino people should be enjoying, what the Spaniards is actually doing to the country, in layman’s terms, Jose Rizal saw the bigger picture while in his travels in Europe. His drive for knowledge and passion for his parents led him to be the only national hero in the whole world to wield a pen instead of a sword.
So, is Hitler truly Rizal’s progeny? Maybe, maybe not. But either way, Rizal is Rizal, and Hitler is Hitler. It doesn’t change the fact that Rizal’s works saved his country, while Hitler’s ruined his.

"My head hurts" ~ Boogie

†A TRIBUTE TO MY MOM‡
†Happy Mother's Day!‡
†‡

Only once a year does this day come,
Though we celebrate it all year ‘round,
Only one day for dear ol’ Mum,
A day where we surround

With appreciation she does rate,
(An infinitive times over),
Though sometimes it comes a little too late.
She’s luckier than a four-leaf clover:

To have teens like us, who don’t persist
To stay up half the night;
If only I could find the perfect gift
That would be exactly right.

I searched low and high
And all about my head;
As the moon rose in the sky
I realized to my dread:

I have naught to give to you
But this wonderful poem,
I wrote it just for you,
Within this wonderful home.

It suits you quite nicely,
I do believe,
For a poem I pulled
Right out of my sleeve.

Thank you Mom,
For all that you’ve done;
Your poetry has inspired me,
It’s been some fun.

I hope you love this personalized poem:
I wrote it just for you to appreciate.
(And makes up for a material present).
Love, your Sons

†A TRIBUTE TO MY DAD‡
†Happy Birthday Daddy!‡
†‡


DAD

I’m in college now
And I’ve got a life to plan around
And I’m nearly a grown man
I’ve got to be all I can

For all the years of stress
And all the years of strife
I know that for me
You only wished the best
And I’m so glad I have you in my life

Times will be good
Times will be bad
Times will be happy
Times will be sad
But just know
I’ll always love you, Dad

I remember
When I was just a kid
I would fall and skin my knees
And you could always make me smile again
With all your wonderful stories
Of the childhood you once lived

Can you recall
How you would always dry my tears
Yes, and do you remember
How you would catch me if I were to fall
And keep away all my fears

Times will be good
Times will be bad
Times will be happy
Times will be sad
But just know
I’ll always love you, Dad

I hope someday
I’ll make you proud
I hope, I hope
I’ll never let you down

And I know
Sometimes I made you mad
But I always thought
You were the best Dad
Anyone ever had

Times will be good
Times will be bad
Times will be happy
Times will be sad
But just know
I’ll always love you, Dad

Maybe someday
When we’re both old
We’ll laugh
About all those ancient stories
Told and retold

I sure understand
Why you sometimes grew upset
And I know, I know
Sometimes I drove you mad
I’ll have to admit

Times will be good
Times will be bad
Times will be happy
Times will be sad
But just know
I’ll always love you, Dad

The time you showed me
How smart you truly are
Even I thought you were
Just some old football star

And the games we played
For hours on end
And how you taught me
Of Christ and his kin

Times will be good
Times will be bad
Times will be happy
Times will be sad
But just know
I’ll always love you, Dad

You’ve taught me
And given me so much
What can I do in return?
To show you my love?

I suppose, I suppose
There are still some things
I must learn on my own
And what they are
Really, only Heaven knows

Times will be good
Times will be bad
Times will be happy
Times will be sad
But just know
I’ll always love you, Dad

So I’m sorry for the pain
And I’m sorry for the stress
But I think you need to know
Our years of father and son
Truly were my best

I’ll always be with you
No matter where you go
I’ll always love you
Even long after I’m on my own

Times will be good
Times will be bad
Times will be happy
Times will be sad
But just know
I’ll always love you, Dad

And when I have
A son of my own
I’ll have him know
His granddad is the world’s greatest man

I hope I’ve made you proud
And I hope I’ve been a good boy
Thank you
You always kept me safe and sound
And brought me so much joy

So, so…

Times will be good
Times will be bad
Times will be happy
Times will be sad
But just know
I’ll always love you, Dad
