P.S. Trust me when I say that this is not even a summary of the whole me.
- I'm just sad that out of all the people who dared to read my fan word on Death Note songs created to the tune of The Beatles, only one guy dared to give a comment. (And thanks again for that, wolf of sorrow.) Does this really mean that many don't have a clue about The Beatles, or at least the songs they made? *sigh*
- On the plus side, I'm glad that one of my questions for T.M. Revolution (the guy that sang "Heart of Sword" in Samurai X, among other things) actually got asked by Adam. My question's the "semi-serious revolution" question (if I may borrow SomeGuy's words). The article is available here.
- And that's about it for today. I might be posting in Only in Asia today. Just watch out for it.
First of all, thanks a lot to the well-wishers who greeted me in advance for my birthday.
Anyway, yeah I'm officially 18. Now I'm in the legal age. The age where the line between adolescence and adulthood becomes thinner and thinner.
Remember that thought that I shared yesterday when I thought it was sad for me to become older than Shinichi Kudo, the Detective Conan character whom I had considered as the amazing big brother that I never had? Well, last morning I actually spent time crying over that fact in the bathroom. I guess that fact is just a bit hard to accept for me.
Today, I did what I thought I would never be able to do in my birthday: I CELEBRATED IT WITH MY CLASSMATES! Since it's summer vacation, it has been a tradition for me to celebrate it without any classmates beside me. But since there was a photoshoot and a meeting for the campus's Psychology Society (which I am a part of), I decided to use the opportunity to do something that I have never done in my 18 years here on Earth.
In the end, I managed to treat five of my fellow members (one of them an old high school colleague of mine) to burger and ice tea at the popular fastfood chain Jolibee, which was near the campus. I gotta adit though that I wished that I just treated them for Chinese siomai and rice at a cheap cafeteria near the campus, but that realization came into my senses when I saw how expensive the burger and ice tea was. (I spent PHP 230 or US$ 5). But what the heck, it was still fun!
And, yeah, I made another post in Only in Asia, this time on a Japanese cartoon on potty training. Also, I submitted a Rurouni Kenshin article that compared my favorite character, Kenshin Himura, to my favorite politician, Dr. Ron Paul. Hopefully, the guys at the Fan Words business will approve it.
And so that ends my Birthday post for today. As my gift to you, here is the 1st ending song of the anime series Death Note entitled "Aluminia". I'm showing this because it has become the new theme song of my life, with lyrics telling me that I can still do a lot in my life. Enjoy!
Well, 17 was a good age. Many memories, much fun. One thing I feel sad about leaving this age is the fact that this will make me older than Shinichi Kudo of Detective Conan.
I remember back when I was 11 when I saw DC for the first time. At that time, I considered 17-year-old Shinichi as the amazing big brother that I never had. Now, I'll be 18, and Shinichi's still Conan. It's quite sad in my part.
Anyway, on other stuff, I'm starting to love my guest poster job. That's because of the many fun and hilariously weird you see while you research along the way. You should check out Only in Asia now to see the latest video.
Well, that's all for today. Tomorrow, I become 18. HAVE A NICE DAY EVERYONE!
In case you didn't know, I have been appointed as one of the guest posters for bellpickle's world, "Only in Asia". So far, I'm enjoying my little job in that world.
Yesterday, I've posted a vid on the HUGE boo-boo at the Binibining Pilipinas 2008 (I'm sure jomz know what that's all about). Today, I posted a very heartwarming ad from Thailand.
I suggest you check those videos now by clicking here.
And P.S. SIX days before *gulp* I become qualified for a driver's license.
