The End of the Week : 2011-08-07

Today marks the end of the August’s 2nd week. This week is full of spending.. it looks like i need to control my expenses for the week to come. On a different note, just today i watched Transformers 3 in 3D.. well, as usual, the story is so-so but the battle is alright.. and it’s long… but hopefully this is the end of the Transformers series (honestly, i’m not too fond of Transformers..)

So here are the happenings this week :
1. Mayoi Neko Overrun Figures arrived
The Serizawa Fumino and Kiriya Nozomi figures (MEGAHOUSE) just arrived AT THE SAME TIME D:.. I was shocked, really, cause i thought that the fumino one is due in October or so, but it seems that i saw the wrong date of release.. it breaks my cash flow calculations… But well, since it already arrives, i’ve got to pay for it, so i’ll just let it slip by

2. The idolm@ster for dearly stars : Innocent Blue 3, arrives at kinokuniya
So, just yesterday, i went to kinokuniya @ plaza senayan, to buy the innocent blue 3 (which is the end of the series), and browsed for another mangas, hoping i’d find Rou-kyu-bu vol. 2.. but i find TLR darkness vol. 2 instead… without further thinking, i grab it and took it to the cashier.. and there goes my money… :/

3. Having dinner with the g00 members
From Plaza Senayan, i went straight to Central Park, waiting for the guys to come out from the theatre, while playing Sakaagari Hurricane in my PSP.. i’m too absorbed to it, so i didn’t recognize that my cell has been ringing.. LOL, and in the end i got to meet them and having dinner @ Sushi Groove TA.. Ate, Chat and took a walk back to Central Park, eat again, and then went home…

That ends my post.. what a boring post indeed.. well, i don’t really have anything to say lately.. even though back then i had something to say, but i forgot… :/ it’s really easy to forget about what you want to write when you don’t write it right away… so, night, guys

Happenings Today: 2011-07-30

Today i woke up in the morning, changed my clothes, and go cycling in the neighbourhood. It’s been like my routine for the weekend lately, which is good because i rarely exercises, so my body is stiff, and this help me a little in relaxing my body.

And, so for today, i got to watch Harry Potter and The Deadly Hallows part II (Yes, it finally ends, after 10 years long wait). When watching it, about 3/4 through the film, there apparently a problem with the sound, so it gave out a large amount of noise, large enough to make some people actually ran out from the theater, thinking there’s an earthquake or disaster of some sort. It was hilarious.

Restart!

It’s been a real while since my last post.. it’s like been half a year or so.. So now, i’ll restart this all over again.
Just yesterday, or to be precise, maybe from months ago, i’ve been itching to write again in this blog, but dunno what to write.. But still, i just feel that if i don’t do anything, this blog will be wasting my time more than ever, cause i’m just putting half of my heart into this, so in this post, i’ll just spout about anything random, anything in my mind right now, anything happening in these past months.

so here are the list :

1. iDOLM@STER Anime announced and now running
Yes, as you all might’ve known (or might just heard about this elsewhere), iDOLM@STER is getting it’s own anime. For me, it’s something to be celebrated, and i really look forward to each episode. However, as good as an anime can be for one, it didn’t work that way with everyone.. I still drop in the old forum that i used to be active, and seeing their comments, there finding many complaints about each episode.. :/ true, it’s not entirely godly, but it’s not that suck either..
i can just be grateful for it for it’s not a mecha anime, and focusing in mainly one idol at a time, it’s stil enough for me

2. iDOLM@STER 2 Ported to PS3
Once again, it’s about iDOLM@STER. i’ve been an iDOLM@STER fan since like maybe 2005 or so (well, i don’t know that can i be called a “fan”? cause i just got one game and it’s mangas, i didn’t even had it’s 360 one). Well, back to topic, im@S 2 is ported to PS3 with DLC catalog 1-3 inside, and it’s got a new song READY!! from the anime Opening.. On that day i’m like “YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY” and i can’t even concentrate on my job.. just the other day i speak about it to my friend, and ask “will there be an im@S title for PS3?” and my friend said “well, maybe still a long time before it’s really happening”.. and the next day it’s annouced.
It’s like a dream come true, and then i got shocked when i saw the price.. 19800 yen for the limited edition one.. usually PS3 limited edition ones won’t get it past 12000 or 13000 yen.. But, looking at the contents, it’s somehow worth it.. got the game, the anime vol 1 and also gravure vol 1

3. thinking about life
It’s been a whole year since i entered this job, and looking back, i can’t believe how coward i am, only waiting and waiting for almost a year, accusing myself for my incompetence in getting any jobs, accepting the “FACT” that i won’t be employed cause my lack of self-confidence and all.
But God has not throw me away, even though i got this job through my parent’s connection, but still, i was grateful that i can earn money from my own work, for not being too much of a lazy burden to my family.
I realized that i’ve been given a way, and now it’s up to myself to craft my own way, whether it to be a smooth way with a mediocre end, or whether it will be a rocky and hard way, but with a good end waiting on the other side of the road.
No one knows.
Life itself is a gift, being able to breathe normally, having all five senses is more than enough for a normal human to function, to create, to achieve something. Human potential is endless, so practically, there are no dreams which is unachievable.

so i don’t know where this post will take direction, so best to stop it here, shall we? it appears that i’ve been thinking too much :/

Happy Birthday to Myself.. Also, 2010 happenings :D

Today’s my birthday, and I realized that the date is special, Happy birthday to me, YEY 11-01-11

Looking back again, it’s already 24 years I live into this world, and I’m really glad that I could still live until this day. And, since it’s still on new year (only 10 days since the new year), I’ll be giving my opinions about year 2010

2010, indeed, was a great year for me. Although Indonesia itself is having some disasters (such as Merapi eruption, and other disasters as well, but I’m unaffected cause I live far away from those disasters). As for me, 2010 have some events that gave me impact to my life, and giving me new experiences, such as meeting new friends, knowing new things.
Hereby, I am listing the events that happened in 2010 :

- Getting new job which suited me more than my previous job
On around 1st Quarter 2010, I got fired at my job as an application consultant. The reason I got fired is because maybe I’m not willing to go to the clients and only want to stay inside the office. Yes, at that time, my shut-in preference has still not cured (well, being a NEET for 6 months really give me some impact to my life). And I got unemployed again for about 1-2 months, and finally got a new job in a Bank as an Assistant Account Officer. The job is quite simple, like doing interview with a prospecting debtor, making credit proposals to be circulated around the credit committee, etc. It’s a job with mostly paperwork, but you also got to meet the prospecting debtor, which means going out from the office to the prospecting’s office/ workplace.
Being a former shut-in, at first, I’m thinking that I’m not really suitable for jobs that require me to be meeting some people that I don’t know, and going in an out to some places, but as I progresses, I think that a job like this is not quite bad, seeing it also give me some courage in meeting and talking with people.
Actually, the old me is having some difficulties in talking with new people, cause all I did before is just participating in forum, chatting, so mostly it’s just concentrated on the net. Getting a job like this, is making me grow more and more.

- Going to anime events
I was a loner. Only having some friends from the university having the same hobby, and share it all between them, and shutting myself in. Apparently, I’m somewhat bored of what it’s like until then I decided to accompany my friend going to anime events such as AFA X (In Singapore) and some local anime events here too, and I don’t regret it at all. I got to meet new friends, experiencing what it’s like to be meeting with my idols right in front of my eyes (It’s really different than watching TV, of course). And the most important thing is I realized that I should be proud with my life. Before, I was considering of what my image will be in public if they knew that I am an otaku.
Will I be discriminated only because I like anime and manga? Will I be considered as childish only because I like anime and stuffs? Questions like this popped up easily, all because the common sense and morals that adopted by our surroundings (public), but actually, they are just jealous, because they didn’t have anything like this to be proud of. So, ii decided that I should just be open to others, tell them that I like this and this. They will not be dare to laugh at you, cause you have something, something that you can put all your heart and soul into. Let them know that you’re serious .
Aside from that, I actually want to go to comike, I really want to know what it’s like, but sadly, my day-off from my office is already depleted because of AFA… D: then again, I don’t know if I’m able to take day-offs in end of year. When my friend told me about his experience in comike, it makes me drool, and made me wanted to go there myself. Maybe this year or next year then D:.

- Increasing expenses
LOL.. this one’s embarassing, actually. Getting new job = got salary = got new temptations to buying stuffs D:… I started by buying more puchi nendos, first is Hatsune Miku Set. I’m really happy cause I got it in a somewhat cheap price. Feeling not enough, I started to buy more puchi sets. First is I got bakemonogatari set 2, and then I got bakemonogatari set 1 for a cheaper price, because of box defects, and then it started to be buying spree… D: bakemonogatari set 3, and then lots more puchis and nendos are coming and POing… in the end, I’ll have an army of nendos and puchis… D: not that I hate it though, in fact I really LOVE it… 

And maybe, that’s all of my reminiscing throughout the year. I’m planning to type more than this, but I guess it’s enough for today… Happy birthday myself.. so sad
