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

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.

*Edited slightly*

†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!)

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
