Man...

It's pretty quiet here.

When was the last time I actually posted something here? And had a conversation with someone on that post? It's been such a long time ago...

I've lost touch with like 99% of everyone I ever knew here on LJ. And the other 1% I don't even really talk to anymore. Just reblog some funny post or whatever from each other on tumblr and that's it.

Tumblr has been getting on my nerves recently so even my minuscule amount of interaction with people is now practically gone. I don't go out to look for people to talk to because the people I find are aggravating and annoying or too caught up in social issues or self-assigning some identity with fictional characters as if they themselves were that character and everything that character went through they did as well. And then there are just the typical assholes in fandom that rub me the wrong way.

I have maybe one or two people from work I could call friends, but they aren't the kind of people I'd talk about video games to. One guy almost was that kind of person but he became such an asshole about what is or isn't real music, and his views on video games are the kind that are prevalent in the industry in regards to pretty much every important issue.




I don't know what I'm doing with my life anymore.

I used to have a goal, and I used to work toward something. Now I'm just going by each day, making sure I clock in as many hours I can for my paycheck so that I don't have to worry about my garnishments taking money out to the point where I can't keep up with my bills and expenses. And at the end of every day, I come home from the bus ride, take a quick (or not so quick) nap, make dinner and then play Minecraft. I used to stream myself playing some of my games on Twitch, but I haven't lately because I've pretty much found that if I don't interact with whoever enters my channel's chat, no one sticks around. I guess that's to be expected.

...

I doubt anyone will read this. But at least I could let it out somewhere I feel is a better place for this kind of shit.

First (real) post on DW and first cross post to LJ. Whoo~! I feel like I'm taking a giant leap technology-wise!

Anyway, life post!

Things... Are not eventful?! I mean, I can complain about work but uhhh, I can't really complain about it because what I want to complain about could actually get me in trouble so??? lol Aside from that I'm doing alright as far as that goes. I'm trying to study to get my A+ certification and then go far perhaps CCNA? Have to think about that.

Recently I've been splurging most of my money on importing Dumb Japanese Anime Games, aka I bought Tales of Eternia EU PSP and Tales of Phantasia: Narikiri Dungeon X (both of which I've been playing almost nonstop since I got them), with Tales of Destiny 2, Tales of Rebirth and a few others waiting in my Amazon wish list. Also buying gifts for family and trying to reserve a room at the Sheraton Hotal Dallas for A-Kon this year... As well as maybe buying an iPad and other Expensive Things.... You'd think I'd be dirt poor broke but I manage to keep my money lasting til the next paycheck. I figure I may as well get as much of everything that's less than $800 that I want first before I go saving everything for getting an apartment or a bigger expense.

Hopefully things continue to be good. And hopefully I'll remember to stop playing games after work and actually look at my DW.

So uh... Since people are jumping ship to Dreamwidth, I decided to get my own when I realized I already had one made.
operatingstars over there~


And of course I have plurk where I make Taiga want to kill me, that is here at indignation. Anything else is on that post I made earlier.

So YEAH!

Hmm, last time I updated LJ was back in October. Guess I’m due for another one.

The rumor mill around the water cooler at work is really going strong recently. It kinda worries everyone, and I won’t delve into details but I’m hoping everything works out alright. Let’s just say things have been in the news in recent weeks about this and that and everyone here knows all about it but we’re not supposed to know all about it and RISKS. So yeah.


This year is the first year I’ve had any remote ability to buy Christmas gifts for people, mainly my immediate family. I actually didn’t have much trouble, since…… most of my family is vague about what they want and I mean that like you can’t tell what they are trying to tell you. But nonetheless, great time christmas shopping.


Other than that, not too much going on. Sometimes I work on Saturdays and sometimes I work into the night during the week. Most of my excitement has been catching up on video games like the Prinny games on PSP and my old favorite Grandia. Oh, and playing Sonic CD on my iPhone. It’s difficult on it so I plan on getting it on my PS3 as well. That’s about it. I do plan on catching back up with anime on netflix because I’ve neglected it and one of my co-workers managed to make me want to go back to it because uh… something of interest was put up on it.


marikocure! WHERE ARE YOU?! THERE IS A WEDDING OF A JERK AND A DEMONIC NUN THAT WILL BE CALLING YOUR NAME SOONER OR LATER!!!

Until next time, LJ.

Hey, it's been awhile once again. It's been a busy month or... something. I've been enjoying my new job (amazing, huh? ENJOYING YOUR JOB, WHAT A FOREIGN CONCEPT!!). It does have its kinks and downsides, but I can't really complain too much. It keeps me really busy, but luckily I used my first check to get me an iPhone 4S so I at least am able to check up things. I have it under my dad's Sprint service, until the next time I decide to upgrade and get my own service (which isn't gonna be til this contract is up). I am proud to say things have been slowly looking up since I got this job. And hopefully my anxieties will get better as well from here on out.

As far as what I'm doing fandom-wise, well I still try to keep up with Keroro manga but right now my attention is turned towards The World God Only Knows manga. Although recently I've been watching the Keroro dub because FIRST THING I SPENT MY HARD EARNED MONEY ON WAS NETFLIX SUBSCRIPTION. I made several plurks commentating on it, it was good and bad times. I need to get back to it soonish. Video game wise, well Disgaea 4 has become a bore for me, mostly because I don't have my ps3 with me here and I'd only have about an hour to play when I get home from work (I end up hanging out at my cousin's house since I don't have a car or a license to drive without someone)... But I am super excited for Sonic Generations and once I get my next paycheck I'm going to go pick up my preorder and geek out until Friday. Or wait til Friday, pick it up along with my Mac Mini and then I'll be big pimpin' yo. I can't wait for the OSTs for the game to come out in FUCKING DECEMBER which sucks shit but oh well. I think I'll manage on just the game rips, like I am right now.

I'm not really much into role playing lately but you know those gay ships I'm into are still rocking in my head and I still thinking on those children of theirs and yadda yadda. I do want to do a thread every so often but HOW DO I START I DON'T KNOW ANYMORE, IT'S BEEN TOO LONG SINCE I'VE SERIOUSLY ROLEPLAYED and timing and not having time and wifi at the schools I work in have shitty signals and stupid weird passwords to connect and all that so can't do much during work hours and yeah. Maybe when I get to my cousin's house. I'll think about that some other time.

Right now I'm thinking about my long term project, that Keroro Srpg game I've wanted to do. Technically it's my second long term project, next to wanting to take Disgaea and place on Tales's LMBS system. But I think I'll leave that for some other time. Anyway, I have ideas and I've been reading things to help me learn how to code on Mac and iOS but I will need a new Mac to really start doing anything.

So basically everything rides in and starts on my next paycheck this week can't come any faster, and if our checks don't come on Monday I will cry tears of blood until Friday!!!

Anyway, I hope somebody still checks their LJ. Not that I use mine much either, so I guess I'll drop my plurk and tumblr later, maybe my twitter too if anyone wants it. I also kinda sorta started using my facebook but not nearly as much as plurk and tumblr.

I... Think I'm over my mental/emotional crisis from yesterday...

I hate it when it happens. It's a pain in the ass because I end up doing something I might regret.




Tomorrow, I'm going to go try for that interview again.

... But first I need to go back home and get my flash drive so I can print my resumé, I can't believe I forgot to grab it.

Thing up/down thing LJ is doing is getting a little annoying that I'm close to saying just keep it down until the problems are taken care of.

Oh well, LIFE UPDATES! If LJ pulls through and posts.

My grandmother was in the hospital yesterday and today. My aunts have been noticing that she's started to sorta suddenly go south in her normal brain health. She's been staring into space more often, get confused with her surrounds, even hallucinate gun shootings or even earthquakes. So she's gotten a CT and a MRI.

I got to see the scans, and according to the doctor, both are very good scans compared to after her brain surgery, so the doctor thinks she may be having minor seizures that are causing her lack of cognition and her hallucinations.

So right now, she's being watched and is getting an EEG or whatever it's called. I thin she will be coming home tonight since my aunt took her walker with her to the hospital to get my other aunt (and take her to the airport since she needs to go back to California).

I don't know what's gonna happen until later. I'm scheduled to be looking after my grandmother here for the next week and then another week in August, but with this I don't know. My aunts are thinking of just putting her in assisted living because this is getting too difficult for everyone. Although, they are looking at a more religious home, since grandma is Catholic, and that would make her happier about Assisted Living.

AS FOR MYSELF, NOTHING INTERESTING except I want a P'zone from Pizza Hut for some reason.... .... So the usual.

That's all for the next week or so. Sorry Digi for not getting to talk to you on AIM since.. ... ... the funeral? I think. I'm gonna try to fix that this coming week.

RIght, I should do a life update, shouldn't I?

Well, there isn't actually a lot to report since the funeral. Dad's staying at his mother's place, I'm still asked to take care of her some times (They want me for two whole weeks in August which they intend to pay me $100 each week), cleaned out storage units to place in the new home so that my sister-in-law can look through them and set up...

Umm, my aunts are thinking that it may soon be time to put my grandmother into a Assisted Living home...




AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAnnnd mom has tickets to the Ranger's baseball game this Friday. That's about it.


Granted, that a bit more than a usual few weeks, but the baseball game tickets are really the highlight of these past few weeks.

One last update, and then I'll keep my journal empty again.

So recently my dad and stepmother got themselves a new (mobile) house. They are just now getting utilities hooked up and I'm just now getting a look inside now that it's up over here.


THIS PLACE IS A HUGE MESS! The home was sold as being salvaged so it's a little crappy looking inside anyway. The place was cleaned up EVEN A LIITLE BIT by the sellers, there's... there was a dead mouse in one of the bath tubs, the house was put back together evenly, only three rooms has working electricity, and even then, not every outlet in said rooms work, it's just in a very poor condition, to me. I would think the people who sold it would at least clean up even just a LITTLE bit, but nope. They could even do their job right so they have to come back and get an electrician to see why the electricity won't work in all rooms.

In all honesty, I don't think the house will be livable for a few months or so. It's gonna take a lot of time to fix things up, time my dad can't really get a hold of since he had to pull strings just to get time to look after my grandmother and such.

This is worthy of a post, yes it is.

My grandmother's getting much more tired faster than I had thought. She's also losing her hair, but that's to be expected with radiation treatments. My dad has asked me to stay for the weekend, and frankly, I have absolutely nothing better too do so why not?


I've been thinking about it, I want to get back into the swing of RPing, since I've done next to nothing on that front except for a few really short threads. Thinking of route_29 but I'm not sure. I guess after this weekend, I'll figure out what I want to do about it.

Lastly, answer me this, Flist (whoever is left that actually reads this)! What's great about plurk? What do you like about it? How often do you use it? (I'm assuming a great deal)

It's Mutsumi Day today! I can't believe it's taken THIS long to realize that, I'm a bad fan. I find it just a little funny that Mutsumi's and Natsumi's "days" are both in the summer.

I would have drawn something Mutsumi related but /lazy. Not that I'm any good anyway.




Anyway, I'm going back to my grandmother's tonight to look after her again tomorrow with my dad. This may be the last time I do this, unless my aunts really really need me. My grandmother is getting weaker and weaker with each visit to the doctor for her radiation treatment (she goes every weekday) so the chances of me actually continuing this is not low. But, we'll see how it goes.

Aside from that, I'm going to refocus (a bit, can't stray too much focus from job hunting) on that Keroro game I wanted to do. I have an idea of how I want to do the story, in true Keroro Gunso fashion of touching on it and then shoving it away for segments of time. I'd also like to start... pixel-ing stuff and getting the hang of that. I'm sure everything will look shitty but whatever.

This is a little silly.

My crappy drawing aside, I'm sure Fuyuki would fit into her clothes quite nicely. Stop having a girly body, Fuyuki.



Well, it is sad news, but Fuyuki's original Japanese voice actress, Tomoko Kawakami, passed away yesterday from ovarian cancer. She's been ill since 2008.

She'd done such a great job at Fuyuki. I've watched the Keroro tag on pixiv start pouring in fanart of Fuyuki in remembrance of Ms. Kawakami, I sorta felt like drawing him as well.

... But then that kinda devolved into making Fuyuki crossdress with Nanaly Fletch (from Tales of Destiny 2), another character Kawakami voiced.

Anyway, rest in peace, Tomoko Kawakami. Thank you for all your hard work in breathing life into some amazing characters.

Okay, so the latest Keroro chapter. Here's what we got.

The new guy.

The new Fuyuki "Tomosu".

New guy's Tamama, Dororo, and Giroro transformations.

Supreme Commander telling Keroro someone's falling behind schedule and forced him to take some measures.

Final page with the kid Tomosu showing the new guy around the world. He also calls the new guy Keroro there.

This chapter is actually a continuation of last month's chapter, but that barely touched on the new guy.

I said before that it appears that these guys are going to be new recurring characters, but APPARENTLY during a commercial for the manga (of course aired during the 7th season rerun) the new guy is featured more prominently. He may be a more permanent member of the cast, not like, say, Mutsumi or Alisa who only appear once in a blue moon in a while.

IT'S SUNDAY! THAT MEANS LIFE UPDATES sorta. More like "updates with whatever I feel like spilling."

  • Yesterday I helped my dad with stuff over at his NEW HOUSE which... looks like crap inside and isn't really live-able yet. LOVE BAKING IN THE HEAT, TURNING INTO A LOBSTER AND NOT GIVING A FUCK ABOUT IT! Also my two of my oldest nephews are useless where as my other nephew WHO IS ONLY WHAT, 6?! don't remember... HE ACTUALLY TRIES TO HELP US! MAN, KIDS THESE DAYS!
  • shift key, it's getting a lot of use lately...
  • My step mom is pretty sick. She looks horrible although my dad says she's doing better these days.
  • I'm... ... I don't know why, but I'm drawing the gang as if they were demons in the netherworld. I DON'T KNOW WHY it just sorta... happened.
  • Speaking of "the gang", new Keroro manga chapter. I rambled on about it on twitter just a while ago, but I'll post a few of the scans up here later. Let's just say NEW RECURRING CHARACTER WHOSE KINDA POWER/GOD MODE! And I mean already more so then the platoon can be. I'll go more in depth for the only other person who'd read that.
  • XIIIIIIIIIIIILLIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA fuck you Namco Bandai, I really want this game, do something about this! Fffffffff Mila in Stahn costume, it just gives me bad mental images


Alright, back to that drawing of crap.
