Ah. I'm bored. Renamed all my user pics using song lyrics instead of names. Like for this icon I'm using; its original name was "vincent/cloud -- concern" in my user pics list but I changed it with "My funny valentine" from Frank Sinatra's "My Funny Valentine".

Heheh. "My Funny Valentine". Vincent Valentine. Get it?

.................

A stupid and pathetic way to be funny. Anyways, yes, I'm bored. So I'm gonna do a photography meme again.

Request with what you'd like to see me take a picture of. It can be anything (though nothing too extreme!). It can be a picture of my bed, my guitar, what I go to sleep with... anything! Request and I'll post up the pictures in a few days.

Heheh! Ham sandwich is goooooooood! :D Tuna too. Ham or tuna? Tuna or ham? Ah what the heck. I'll eat them both because I'M HARDCORE! I'M HARDCORE! XDDDDD

*ahem* Anyways, went out with Dot, Evon and Steph. Dot and I drove to school to meet up with Steph then Evon came about 10 minutes later in her own car. Then we all got into my car and drove to Tun Jugah. Then... tea, I guess, at some rojak stall. Drove Evon back to school cos she parked her car there and she had to pick her sister up. After that, drove Steph home and finally drove back home. Parents and Deanna went to dinner with Mama's sister so it's only Dot, the maid and me home.

Another survey! :D

Screw creativity; I have nothing creative to put in here! XD )

In exactly one week, I start college. Gah.. Heheh. Oh well. Sarah can't wait for it and I'm dreading it. I know I'll end up becoming the anti-social, quiet girl again! At least now I know the way to my college so I can drive there! :D

I wonder what should I do tonight. Perhaps replay "Fahrenheit" again. Lucas Kane is angsty love!

And maybe tomorrow I'm going out again. Hmmm. We'll see. I have to wait for Steph to message me first.

NEW LAYOUT!!!

[info]doreenxx // [info]doreenxx // [info]doreenxx

... Well, not exactly. I mean, I used a black and white layout by [info]minty_peach but I changed the colors and made the fonts a bit darker and bigger. The header and other stuff have not changed much.

And I'm still using Cloud/Tifa as my header. Cloud/Tifa pwns all other ships!! Well, except for Leon/Cloud, Leon/Aerith, Leon/Tifa, Squall/Rinoa, Sephiroth/Cloud... *goes off to ramble on about ships*

ANYWAY...

To my friends outside of LJ (Evon and the rest), don't worry, I still have links to your blogs put up on my profile page. At least now I can just go to one page to search for a link :)

Another life soundtrack thingy; this time from [info]walkwiththedead

IF YOUR LIFE WAS A MOVIE, WHAT WOULD THE SOUNDTRACK BE?
So, here's how it works:
1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc)
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
6. Don't lie and try to pretend you're cool...just type it in!


The answers are as sucky as ever but at least my music taste is diverse XD )

Let's see... what did I do today? Mom cooked nasi lemak, so all my Orang Ulu relatives came. Sarah came and brought along this movie called "Master of Disguise". Ahaha, I haven't watched that movie in a long time. It's still an awesome movie. So silly and random.

Then went to church. Mom told Dot and me to go; she'll go tomorrow evening. So we did. After church, drove to Wisma Saberkas. Wasted RM15 on a rubber casing for my phone. Oh well. I've always prefered rubber casings to plastic ones anyway. Drove home, ate dinner, went to airport to pick Dad up. Stopped by at Starbucks. Bla bla bla... went home... bla bla bla.

Jenny's coming back on August 11th! YAYNESS!!! Our "mommy" coming back liao! Ahaha!

I miss Nickelodeon's "All That". I especialy love the original cast. You know; the one with Lori Beth and Danny Tamberelli and the others in it. "Vital Information" has always been one of my favorite sketches. The facts given were so random and actually made sense XD

Lately, I've been obsessed with Moulin Rogue. Hence, my header having lyrics from it put into it and all the "Freedom. Beauty. Truth. Love" thing I have going on. "Come What May" shall forever be my favorite love song (it's been my favorite love song for about 4 years now) but I still want to use Gavin DeGraw's "Chariot" at my wedding reception! XD I love the last sentence that Christian typed before ending the story. "The greatest thing you will ever learn, is just to love and be loved in return". I actually cried after the movie. So sad and tragic... CURSE YOU DEATH!!!

Hmmm. Sleepy. I guess I'll just stick around for an hour and then I'll hit the sack.

Haha! FINALLY! I completed my Hollow Bastion Characters mood theme! :D PRETTY NEW MOOD THEME! If you're wondering why I have some KH1 images of Leon and Cloud in the mood theme... well... ummm... I was out of pictures.

I finished it much faster than I expected. The last time I created a mood theme, it took me about 5 days to complete it; and it was a Vanessa Ferlito mood theme. But this one took me less than 24 hours. Heheh. When there's a will, there's a way! X3 Some of the mood theme pictures probably won't make sense to other people but who cares. IT'S MY BABY!

... No, I did not just sit in front of the computer the whole day creating mood themes. Around 3 pm today I had a sort of disagreement with my Mom and she went into one of her lecturing moods about how I don't drive around enough and that my cousin's already driving around by herself (Sarah got her license about a month after I got mine). So, I got quite mad and frustrated. There's just one too many times that I can compress my frustrations. Today, I just happened to snap. Changed my shirt, changed into my jeans, grabbed my car keys and I drove off.

First off I went to Friendship Park to sort of clear my head. Then I drove to my Puakek and Puidoh's house to just hang around with them. My Orang Ulu grandparents are so cool; they spoil me too much XD They forced me to finish a whole packet of chocolate chip cookies, a glass of milk and to top it all off, they insisted that I stayed to eat proper food before I go off.

Went back. On the way, a couple of wrong turns. Heheh. I came back home, showered and my uncle called to say that he saw me driving and he saw me making the wrong turn. Malunye...

Hmmm... what else? Oh yes. House = Blackout. Raining heavily, lightning struck and hit something near my house and I got a free display of silent fireworks from one of the electrical wires outside. Lit a candle and got some extremely hot and painful candle wax all over my left wrist. Joy.

Gah. I'll stop now. Rambling on too much XD

That's it. I'm having the right mind to give up playing Final Fantasy X. I've been trying to defeat Seymour Natus and Mortibody at Bevelle for 3 hours now and... bleh. Looked up on walkthroughs and each one had a different theory on how to defeat him.

One suggested that I level Yuna up until she's able to learn Reflect; so I can cast it on Seymour whenever Mortibody heals him so that it will heal one of my party members instead.

Another one suggested that I get full Overdrives for all my party members and Aeons and unleash them on Seymour.

BUT SEYMOUR KEEPS TURNING MY PEOPLE INTO STONE AND CRUSHING THEM! Before I have a chance to use Al Bhed potions and remedies!

Gah. This is like fighting Sephiroth in Kingdom Hearts 2.

Gah. I spent all morning trying to make this manip look at least a little bit realistic and more "canon". I think it looks quite okay since both original pictures had white backgrounds on them.

Free Image Hosting at www.ImageShack.us

I wanted to make Leon on top but I remembered how horrible his fingers turned out in my last "project" so... Aerith gets the top. I meant to make it look as if they're holding hands but it doesn't look like that, does it? Hmmm. Oh well. Leon's hair was a pain to do though. Damn layered spikes/bangs.

Yes, I do actually like Aerith. I just don't like her whenever she's with Cloud. So, one random day, I dumped her together with Leon and it turns out that I actually love them together. Hee. Black leather and pink lace. Teh hotness! And so kinky XDDDDDD

Anyway, proper update. Turns out that this year we're going to celebrate Puakek's (my Orang Ulu grandfather) birthday with a big bang. The whole gang from Miri is coming here to celebrate and Seb is coming back to celebrate too. YAY! Haha, I love family gatherings. This year, Sarah and I are in charge of making the slideshow. Heh. Lots of pictures to sort through!

These past few days, it's been really cold, even in the afternoons. It was cold; like when I was in Florida 7 years ago. The coldness felt something like that, except not so, well, cold.

Like right now. COLD! And I'm hungry XD

Ahem. I want a new layout. But I can't find a good one which'll work for Flexible Squares and Plus Accounts. Why can't we have, like, 2000 free user pics with a Basic Account like GreatestJournal? *sigh*

Anyway, according to this, I'm almost done with FFX! I just have... 13 more "chapters" to go! Slow, I know, but I have been playing that game for the whole day today and throughout the night last night. Bosses are bloody hard. SEYMOUR DIEE!!!!!11!!!!11 I had to fight that Evrae four times. No, Evrae wasn't that hard if you used the right people. It's just that... my party kept dying in Bevelle XD Now I'm stuck in the Cloister of Trials in Bevelle. Great.

Oh well. I've delayed playing this game and FFX-2 for four years now; better catch up with it.

Oh... video of Steve Blum (voice actor for FFVII's Vincent Valentine) singing Right Said Fred's "I'm Too Sexy"! [info]tainee had the pleasure of attending this year's Otakon and she mentioned that Steve sang a song in Vincent's voice. I got curious and highly amused so I went on a searching spree in YouTube. I do not know if this is recent (it said that the video was added in May) or if this was during Otakon, but it has Steve singing in Vincent's voice so, naturally, I'm satisfied. I showed the video to Dot and she, being a Vincent fangirl, started fangirling like crazy XD

RANDOM THOUGHT: I wonder how those it feel like cosplaying. If given the chance, I'd do it but although I'd love to be Tifa, I don't like wearing sleeveless shirts. Maybe... Aerith? Because... she has a jacket. Or KH2!Leon? Heheh. Bleh.

I really need to stop using emoticons. I'm getting too used to it. And next week is my last free week before I start... *dum dum dum* COLLEGE!!! I'm not that excited; more like lazy and nervous. But oh well. At least I get to meet new people. I wonder if I'll stick out like a sore thumb because the crowd at Limkokwing are, well, fashionable and I'm sure as hell not fashionable. No matter; I'll be going there to actually learn, not to show off what "Mommy and Daddy's money can buy for me".

And before I go to college, I plan on finishing the following games:

1. Final Fantasy X
2. Fatal Frame 2
3. Kingdom Hearts

So that's all for today. Gonna go shower, eat dinner and continue on my Yuna's pilgrimage!

P.S - *points to icon used for this post* I suck at making icon manips. Or maybe I chose the wrong pictures... oh well. And the new Tony Hawk game sucks. I miss TH:AW and THUG2.

Hmph. Short one for today. I'm currently engrossed in Final Fantasy X. I hate fighitng the Guado. Ah...

Today, Daniel Radcliffe aka Harry Potter turns 18. Wow. The guy's the same age as me (I'm a few months older, HA!) already. I remember watching Daniel when he was just a wee little boy in the first movie... ah... nostalgia. Anyways, Daniel being born today makes him a Leo, sign of the lion. He joins the ranks of my sister Dot, my two good friends Olivia and Bev, Cloud Strife and Squall Leonhart (maybe; I read that he's a Virgo...?) who are also all born under the sign of Leo.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DANIEL RADCLIFFE!

Teh colorful rainbow! <3

I'd make a graphic, but I'm too lazy and I still have lots of things to do in FFX; Mom forced me to stop for a while. I've been playing since this afternoon XD You're probably thinking... why am I obsessed with finishing FFX? Because Steph won't stop nagging me to do so.

Will go answer comments, shower, eat and continue FFX. Will comment on your journals tomorrow morning! :D

There. I'll be...

1. Reading Harry Potter (I know some of you finished it, but I had to share the book with my whole family).
2. Making icons.
3. Writing/reading fanfics.
4. Getting ready for college.

1. I'll read your entries.
2. Maybe will/won't comment; depends. BUT I'LL STILL READ so don't say I didn't.

Gods, I'm tired.

Let's see... morning, went to church. Picked Steph up (Yes, I know it's weird; Steph going to church, but she's a Buddhist and she wants to see how mass is like so I thought I'd bring her) and went to BDC's church. Had lunch, then went to Green Gallery. After that, went to Sarawak Plaza to get the new Harry Potter book but alas, no stock. Went to Wisma Saberkas and they had a full stock there! Haha, I bought it and flipped to the last page because I'm impatient and... o.O Woah

After that, went home, played a few games then sent Steph home. Got horned by some stupid motorcyclist (did I tell you that I hate motorcyclists?) and scratched the car >.< But my parents were okay with it since, well, I'm new, so they must have really thought that I was about to cry when they saw my facial expression XD

Now I'm home. Parents are going out for dinner and I really need to work on my claim of the women of the FF series for [info]icons50.

What I really want to do is sleep, but... no. No parents at home! At night! Haha, they seldom go out for dinners at night! Must party the house! XD

EDIT: I'm sorry but I don't think I'll be commenting on your friends list... I'll be busy making icons, reading Harry Potter...
