Oresama Teacher

So far, I've spent my time reading blogs and downloading Eyeshield 21. After that, I founf a fantastic manga to read!!

Presenting...(drum roll...).....

Oresama Teacher


This manga is so funny that I kept bursting out laughing!!!
It's about this girl call Kurosaki Mafuyu who was a juvenile delinquent and head of her gang before her subsequent arrest got her expelled from high school. Now that she's transferred to a new high school, she's determined to become an "ultra-shiny, super feminine high school student." But with a new friend like Hayasaka-kun and a homeroom teacher like Saeki Takaomi (who may be more than he seems), will Mafuyu really be able to live a girly-girl high school life!?

THIS MANGA IS REALLY REALLY FUNNY!!!!

These is this chapter where the homeroom teacher took her to the beach and tricked her by acting as if he's drowned. So she panic and threw her float to him even though she didn't know how to swim. In the midst of drowning, she was trying all she can to get help and one of the method was attracting other swimmer's attention by waving the hands around but the other swimmers thought it was a friendly wave so they waved back to her. HAHAHAHAHAHAAH!!!!
For those who have yet to read a manga, it's read from right to left, row by row. The funny part is the last row =P

HAHAHAHAHA!!! OK, if you find it not funny at all then maybe it's just me.

I've borrowed the 2 books.
1. The Rule of Four.jpg

This book has it's own wiki page and according to it, The Rule of Four reached the top of the New York Times Bestseller list, where it remained for more than six months. The book was a no. 1 national and international bestseller and has been translated into more than 25 languages. It has sold more than four million copies worldwide, and as of 2007 was the best-selling debut novel of the decade. It is currently being developed by Warner Brothers as a feature film.

Wow, I didn't know IMU has such fiction books LOL

2.
I think it's a chick lit about Vampire (boo Twilight~~) but oh well, I'm reading to fill up my time anyway and chick lit is relaxing in a way you don't need to think too hard =P


OK, that's all for now. Started downloading Eyeshield 21 since 4.5 hours ago and I already have 14 episodes hehehe =)

Best romantic fiction!!

File:PrideAndPrejudiceTitlePage.jpg
I would declare that I find Pride and Prejudice the best romantic fiction ever!!
I like how Elizabeth Bennet is independent and sensible, I like how the feelings between Mr.Darcy and her developed. I love this love story!! I really wish that one day I can experience what she experienced but I know it won't happen because we are not in the 19th century. Oh well, I can dream right?
File:Prideandprejudice-movieposter.jpg
This is the movie version in 2005. There's quite a bit difference between the novel and the movie but I still love them both.

Another few movies that I love would be Disney's Hercules and Mulan.

This is another story on how a girl can be strong (physical and mentally), smart and as good as man. The songs especially "reflection" and the music in this movie is so suitable that I always feel touched. Love it!! Another reason I love it was because I always practice playing some of the songs back in primary school band =P

I love this movie too because of the moral behind it. I don't know why I just love it especially the song "Go The Distance". This movie just makes me feel that I can overcome anything =P

Movies can make you laugh, cry, scared, give you inspiration, feel loved or feel good and this 3 movies give me all the positive feelings.

Anime that I love so far would be Eyeshield 21.

I don't know why but I just feel good after watching it, to see how a nobody found his talent and how his relationships with the people around him develop. Even thinking about it makes me feel like I can be like him- mentally strong =)

I just love watching good movies =)

New manga

Kinda got addicted to Uwasa no Midori-kun


Yamate Midori is a 15 year-old girl and is a tomboy. One day, Midori meets a boy called Hino Tsukasa, who came to the island she lives on for a holiday. He teaches her to play soccer and she falls in love with the sport. Inspired by Tsukasa, Midori continues to play soccer in hopes that they would meet again someday. When they do meet again, Tsukasa loses her trust by doing something unforgivable. Determined to defeat Tsukasa on the soccer field, Midori enrolls in an all-boys high school. And so the story goes.....

OK, it's a chick lit type but it's nice as the moral of the story is good. Really nice to see how good looking manga guys are especially after a few chapters as the drawings improve. If only they are real. And in this manga, you'll forget that they are 15 years old because the words they use are too matured for them, the way they think too!! One of the guy is just too matured for his age to think of things like "I'll protect you even though you don't love me. I'll protect your smile."

OK, romantic-ness overload LOL!!!! But the gal is so dumb in a way because she lost her virginity after the guy said "since we'll get married some day right?" AND this is coming from a 15 years old BOY!!! Gosh!!

Too bad the story is still half way through...
*******************************************************************

How do I choose manga to read? For me, plot is the most vital factor followed by the quality of the drawings =P

LOL!!! You're My Girlfriend

This manga seems nice and it has only 4 chapters. Hehehe, let me start reading. Til then =)

jeez!!

I was so happy to find back Piano no mori but end up so disappointed because the translator only uploaded the manga til Chapter 43 hence I googled other websites and the most was chapter 44 where the finals begins.

Gah, they did not even bother to upload to the part where the winner is announced!!!

I remember I read til kai was a grown up and he dressed up as a women (he is VERY pretty) and plays the piano as a living.

Haih, guess I'll give Mr.Chong a ring and get the manga instead.

HELP!! I think I'm turning into a manga freak!!! AAAAhhhhh!!!

I FOUND IT!!!!!

I am so happy!! Cloud nine actually!!!

I FOUND IT!!!!

Piano no Mori

It's the first set of comic book I've ever read.

When I found it, I can recall how I manage to get it -It was a Saturday and Mr.Chong (my band instructor) fetched me home after I accompanied him during lunch. He passed me that whole set of comic book and I finished everything within that day because it was awesome!!!

It's about a boy named Ichinose Kai who has the talent in music. He is the only person who can play the piano that was left in the forest by a famous talented piano player who met with an accident and hurt his left arm and Kai has the perfect pitch. When you chew, he can even tell you which tooth of yours is rotten!!! Hahaha!! The best thing is he can play any piece after listening to it once!! His 1st obstacle was playing Chopin's pieces, can you believe it??!! So cool!!!

Sypnosis from Wikipedia
Piano no Mori (ピアノの森 -The perfect world of KAI, lit. "Piano Forest") is an ongoing manga by Makoto Isshiki, about Amamiya Shu, who transfers to Moriwaki elementary filled with hope and ambition about his new life. But it doesn't take long before he gets picked on by the class bullies, and gets involved in a dare to play the mysterious piano in the forest, leading to his meeting an enigmatic child that goes by the name of Ichinose Kai, who seems to be the only one capable getting sound out of the thought to be broken piano. His ability earns him the respect of Shu and his music teacher, former master pianist Ajino Sousuke. At first Ichinose is resistant to refining his art but after hearing Sousuke sensei play Chopin, a song he just can't seem to play by himself, he relents.

I don't know why but I am so happy =)

The manga I'm currently finishing are Kekkaishi and Piano no Mori. I've finished Eyeshield 21, Kaikan Phrase and catched up the latest Bleach.

PS: Apparently Mr.Chong only fetched my batch of members around in his car to so many places and always treat us lunch hehe. After our batch, no members were treated like us. Mr.Chong joked less and was stricter now, maybe because he just love my batch cause we rock!!! =)

*********************************************************************

Today, I went to ACTS and instead of helping out at the receptionist area (which was my duty) I was asked to sit in with the doctor and observe how they treat the patients. At first I was confident but when he asked me to check the blood pressure, he kinda offended me. After reporting the blood pressure, he wanted to double check which I totally understand but he said "sometimes I just can't trust you students because some of you guys are rubbish". I was shocked by the word "rubbish" and after that I was intimidated and lost my confidence.

But anyhow, I did get to practice my BP taking skills and got to use the auroscope (tool to look into the ear) and I even corrected him LOL because I remembered for adults we pull the pinna up and back but for children we pull it down and back but he pulled the pinna up and back for a kid and I corrected him (this happened before the checking BP incident).

Haih, I wonder if I will ever manage to graduate confidently...

I Seriously Hate Endings

I seriously hate hate hate endings!!!!

Be it manga, anime or books!!!!

Sorry, a little emotional here.
I just finished the whole collection of Harry Potter and I really don't like that feeling of "the story ends here". I want to know what happened to the other professors in Hogwarts such as Prof Mcgonagall, what happened to the other DA members like Luna Lovegood or other characters like Aberforth or Dursley or Hagrid or the Weasley family or Neville's Grandma (she disappeared after meeting HP and said she wants to aid her grandson) and what happened after Voldemort died and also to the 3 deathly hallows (What did he use the Resurrection stone for?)?? I want to know more about Dumbledore, Severus Snape, James and Lily Potter!!! And I wonder if Dumbledore's portrait can talk and think and instruct, why can't Harry just talked to him??!! Jeez... And I hate how characters that I grow fondly of get killed in the end!!!

Oh, I went and googled and found out about this and this. OMG!!!
I know I should be excited with the new HP movie but somehow, I am not LOL.

Eyeshield 21 and Kaikan Phrase too!!! I really wanted more and I really hate how the authors finish their hard work. It's like "oh, this is the last episode or chapter, let's just finish it."

Ya, I know...use your imagination!! But I want to know JK Rowling's imagination. OK, I admit. I am too into the stories.

Let's move on..

So what have I been up to lately??

Besides trying to read as much fiction books as I can, I am trying to get as much $$ as I can, hoping to get my own laptop or a new phone. I don't know anything about laptops hence I am clueless!!! Gah..I want to sleep after so many early mornings and late nights trying to finish the books.

PS: Hon Way emailed me...WOW!!!

Tears for manga/anime

I think I have been quite emotional lately.

I read about MJ's (Not Loong MJ k) funeral, tributes and anything like that I'll shed tears.
I read Bleach, I shed tears.
I read Eyeshield 21, I shed tears.
I finished Eyeshield 21, I shed more tears.

I get touched so so easily. Jeez, this is bad...

**********************************************************************

On 10th July, the result was released at 3pm but I was nearly late because I went back and visited band and had a nice long chat with my band tutor. I hopped on the train at 4pm hoping to reach uni before 5pm and instead of worrying if I'll pass or fail, I was more worried if I can't reach in time to get my result.

Thank god I reached uni by 4.40pm so I ran like I never ran before and reached AAD by 5pm. I did not even hesitate to open the envelop which contains my CPR cert, PBL evaluation form and the most important one-EOS result slip. Tore it, looked at it and went up to library to continue with my Eyeshield 21 =P

I sat in front of the PC from 5.15pm to 8.45pm and I covered almost 50 episodes!! The connection in uni is so good!!! I really enjoyed myself but somehow at library I did not shed that much tears maybe because the current sem3 keep appearing and asking me -- "How??"

You must be wondering what shed tears?? Well, I kinda always get touched by Bleach (it's about Death God) when Ichigo has that desire to always protect his friends, how they strive to save Inoue, how they tried so hard in the name of protecting someone dear to them aka friend.

For Eyeshield 21 (it's about American football), I shed tears reading about how they desperately got stronger to achieve their dream together (Christmas Bowl), how Kurita wanted to protect Hiruma or Mamori protecting Sena, how they NEVER give up even till the last 1 second on the field, how they encouraged and supported each other to beat the other team, and I shed the most tears seeing their team spirit. And now I shed again because I finished reading the whole story and I miss reading it.


Both stories, well I would say almost all Japanese stories are touching as they relate to friendship, team work etc, things that I want and crave to have.

I want friends that I can rely on, friends that constantly encourage and pull me up when I give up on myself, friends that I know would be there for me, friends like these characters in these anime/manga. I really hope I'll find one soon. Honestly, I really hope they exist, I mean these characters.

This is the 1st time I did not plan anything for my holiday and surprisingly this is the 1st time I have yet to go on movie marathon like how I always do after collecting my result. I have another 3 weeks before my electives and I really don't know what to do. I don't feel like starting another manga because I hate endings and goodbyes. I really really hate them. I know it's part of life but since I have the choice, I would rather avoid them.

So now, do what ah?? Oh ya, tomorrow go Metro Prima and see can get The Sims or not hehehe...


PS: Do you know I wake up early and start reading the manga latest by 6am and stop if my mom scolds BUT I'll read at least 7 hours hahaha...gonna miss this since I've done with Eyeshield 21

annoying

It's so annoying that some people just take you for granted.

You have problem you want to share, you want to discuss bout it, go ahead. But when you use my time and my $ returning your smses and never ever once say thank you, that's too much.

This is for Wan Hoe's friend who is starting to get on my nerves.

He thinks I'm 24/7 ready to answer his questions and he expects me to know everything. Not able to see and touch is hard to confirm what he's having or experiencing but he gives me the feeling that I should know what to do about it. Yes I know and acknowledge that he's scared and worried (my behavioral skills is fantastic ok but screwed up in OSCE...wth) and I don't mind a bit him asking me for advice or opinions but not when he takes me for granted and steps overboard.

************************************************************************

On a lighter note, I am officially a volunteer for Acts. I'll be helping out soon =)

I am also invited to be the emcee for the 2nd time for my band's music festival in August. Apparently band sucks and my current chairperson told me (quote her)
'you'll cry if you come back and see the band.' Because they have not improved and the band is so sissy (they'll cry if you scold them). Gah, and my band tutor apparently also changed a lot. He sort of became stricter, no more jokes and even leaves the band 1 hour before practice. Has the band became so bad that my band tutor lost interest with our band? I'll find out next week.

Currently, I have been watching Bleach again and boy I am so in love with Zaraki Kenpachi (Captain of the 11th Division)

Toshiro Hitsugaya (Captain of the 10th Division)

One is utmost crazy and one is utmost cool and steady.

I love Japanese anime or drama series because they are good in extracting all the emotions that you can feel. I admit that I'll shed a tear or two when I watch any Japanese drama series because they are so real and so motivating. Motivating, something I need currently and maybe even more after my result is out.

The other character I like is also Jushiro Ukitake, Captain of the 13th Division.
ukitake_shikai

Of course, who would miss the cool Byakuya Kuchiki, Captain of the 6th Division. Love his bankai, named Senbonzakura Kageyoshi ( literally "Vibrant Display of a Thousand Cherry Blossoms").


If only these people were real....lol
