Today marks the start of a new project: The creation of a website utilizing various mediums to accumulate ACE points for the fulfilment of the Infocomm Studies ACE limit. I will be obtaining the help of various sources, besides the Infocomm Studies teacher, to help us with the fulfilment of this task. This project will be done in conjunction with another student, Justin Salim, and will guarantee maximum ACE for our final grade. This will in turn make our parents enamoured and satisfied. The drafting process has been designated to Justin, proceeding which I will then go through a second vetting process, and then proceed to the final stage of creation, coding. I will utilise a combination of Hypertext Markup Language, Cascading Style Sheets, PHP Hypertext Preprocessors and Javascript, as well as Macromedia Flash, Fireworks and Dreamweaver to obtain a final product worthy of this grade.
I have no idea what the above paragraph means and I have no intention of understanding either. Even though I wrote it myself.
"Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu" is complete. Now for Kanon Tv. 2. :|

The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya.
Anyone seen this anime before? It's called "The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya", or "Haruhi Suzumiya no Yuutsu" in Romanized Kanji. Also being animated by Key Animation, it was stopped at episode 14 because staff had to be rerouted to the Kanon remake. The first (read: second) episode is already crazy enough; I can't imagine the rest. -___-;;

New background.
Notice the new background for my blog? That's from AIR. It took me all of fifteen minutes to complete it and another fifteen to get around Photobucket's cranky uploading problems. Somehow, I prefer this over the previous one.

Audition.
I just realised I've spent close to a hundred on anime and manga. >.<
Been playing Audition today, I've gotten quite good at it. Sync-8, anyone? :)
Level 9 now, but there's no one to play with... I've been practising Chance and Sync-8, but it's still very screwy (Chance, not Sync-8).
AIR is almost done. Once I'm finished watching it, I might go back to Zero no Tsukaima or Gunslinger Girl. Or maybe both. >.<
Cheerio.

Air.
Spent most of today at home, though I went to school for maths remedial. Simultaneous linear equations however is not really my cup of tea. I basically slacked through the whole of this rather uneventful day, unless you consider watching Air eventful.
Air? Another anime. Made by Kyoto Animation, the same company that is now working on the Kanon remake, it ran from 6 January 2005 to 31 March 2005 in Japan, ending off with the recap episode at the end of the 13-episode series. It, however, has not been released in Singapore. Which is where YouTube comes in. >.< It isn't licensed!
Air has three arcs: the Dream arc, the Summer arc, and the Air arc. Currently I have only seen the Dream arc, which focuses on four people: Yukito Kunisaki, the male lead of this arc, Misuzu Kamio, the first girl he meets and possibly the main female lead, Minagi Tono and Kano Kirishima. Because I highly doubt that anyone actually reading this will want to watch the anime, mainly because it isn't very action-focused but more of a fantasy comparable to Kanon's supernatural elements, and a very weepy anime, I will not write anymore about it until I finish watching it. Wikipedia is your friend. >.<
HWR signing off. Once again, this is highly recommended: I place it up there along with Kanon.

Kanon.
Ayu from Kanon. xD The remake is coming out October 5th or 6th - can't wait. It looks way better than the 2003 version. With an extension from 13 eps to 25, maybe the story can be better executed instead of the 1-episode-per-side-story execution of the original animation.
Animation rights this time have been handed over to Kyoto Animation, the team responsible for AIR. I've seen AIR - this time round I think all those people who were balking at the original's character design will be able to appreciate the story.
A very good plot-driven anime, even though it did come from a Key game eroge dating sim >.< You don't get many plot-driven dating sims around though. Kanon was THE best dating sim when it came out... xD Wiki it. It's still popular with fans of the genre.
Highly recommended.

New background.
Hey guys, I changed my background. If you don't mind can you tell me if it's hard to read? I'm pretty sure it is, but having some opinion from outside sources does help.

Prize.
Art comes in many forms: For me, it's mostly manga. xD I am such a lamer.
I went to the Home Team Academy today to recieve a prize for second place in an art competition... details exactly? "Ministry of Home Affairs: HomeFront Security Month Poster Competition". It's a national competition where any secondary school can enter (Ngee Ann sent in the most entries but Hwa Chong owned). So I got second place. First place went to a Sec 1; third to a Sec 3. It follows an order, lol. $400 Borders book voucher; so far spent $67.15. Wtf, yeah.
And what was the main focus of my drawing? Well, the people were all done manga-style. There were two vehicles in the picture: the SCDF pumper and the SPF SOC Riot Control Vehicle. It was only until someone presumably in the upper echelons of the Total Defense structure mentioned casually that the two vehicles were the new ones did I realise that I had just drawn vehicles that were not yet released to the public, down to every last detail, including registered number plates for the respective number of the vehicle.
In other news, the new anime/manga I'm hooked on is Gunslinger Girl (which is coincidentally rather old). The main character is Henrietta, a young pre-adolescent child who is incredibly cute, self conscious, has a crush on her mentor and carries a Fabrique Nationale P90 in a violin case. Why? Henrietta is a member of an elite group of Government agents (all coincidentally young, really cute and disarming girls) who have been mechanically enhanced and brainwashed to do the Government's dirty work. They wield guns with deadly precision, and like all normal people specialise in certain weaponry (Henrietta uses Fabrique Nationale and is more of a close-quarters person, though she does use a sniper; Rico is a more experienced sniper). Of course they are very good at making people let down their guard; though professional killers, they still make really good children, apart from the fact that they carry weapons in violin cases, are near oblivious to pain and have more strength than your average weightlifter. A great story, but with such astronomical prices ($9.15 for 1 book), I'm not sure I want to start a collection.

Offline.
Went out for quite a while today... First I went to Parkway and had lunch with my sister, then walked around for a while, after which I proceeded to Century Square to buy Gunslinger Girl 2 and 3 (at this rate my savings are going to be wiped out real easy.) Really bored now though... reason being?
AuditionSEA is in the process of being patched. For over 18 hours now.
In an amazing feat of time management and efficiency, this patch has somehow taken over 18 hours and counting when the stipulated end time was actually eight. The administrators must be really tired now... Maybe someone keeps tripping over the server cables and they have to restart the entire process. Or perhaps they have internet connection problems lar...
Hope it comes up soon lor...
