  • anime? may i? 2001-10-21 14:06:20 i got three more opinions today, thank you nanaseven, longhairedloony and AtomX. it's mr AtomX himself! i watched some of his videos when i was still in the learning stage (okay, i'm *still* in the learning stage) so it was kinda cool getting an opinion from him.

    anyway, he asks why i can't do anime...i wrote a bit about that in my profile, but here's a fuller, more complete explanation:

    first, the reason why i said i could probably only do ffviii vids. i'm not an avid videogamer, hell i'm not even a videogamer. i only made myself play ffviii coz i was sooo captivated after i watched the opening. since then i became obsessed with the game. how obsessed? i transcribed the entire game. i kinda dressed up as rinoa for my high school graduation thingy (before i even knew what cosplay was...) and i wear the griever ring around my neck, even now (there are many reasons why the obsession has lasted so long but i'll not go into that now). i know it inside out, there's this bit of me that is devoted to it completely. maybe that devotion was what made the come what may vid ...err, likeable.

    now the anime bit. erm i dunno, it never seemed to attract me a lot (sorry fans!). i haven't seen any (except pokemon?) and i don't know where to start either. there seem to be so many! i'm scared that once i start watching one, i'll wanna watch 'em all, knowing how obsessive i can get ;) and that will be insane.

    BUT (and now the big "but"), all of today's opinions mentioned they would like to see more. so...erm. if i do an *anime* vid, will it be good or bad or only good if i'm superobsessed with it? hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

    *deep in thought*

    well i'll certainly do videos for ffx, but only after i play it. i've been keeping away from spoilers very well so far (unlike ffviii for which i saw the ending even before i started :| )

    *deep in more thought*

    anime...?

    *deeper in more thought*

    ok. conclusion: maybe i'll just hang around and see if anyone else wants me to give it a go, or see what other people say. or maybe i could work on another ffviii vid for now? ;)

    thanks again to all of you who've encouraged me, i'm glad to know i'm not a failure at everything i do :)

    i wonder if anyone reads my insanely long journal entries... 
  • mixed. 2001-10-20 12:41:21 i got my first opinion. ureshii! (no, that's not the only japanese word i know :p) but i'll try not to let it go to my head too much.

    my midterm today went quite ok (hmm, better not speak too soon). except that i lost my pencil. ugh.

    i seem to be on a roll so that's quite good. hopefully it'll lift me out of my depression. i know it's weird... i type with exclamation marks and smiley faces so people easily mistake me for a super-duper-mega-selphie kinda person. but i'm not.

    there's this line in garbage's drive you home: "but they see me so large that they think i'm immune to the pain". describes me so well. in fact the entire song describes me. it's scary. that's why i still listen to shirley despite the fact that she has songs like cherry lips... *shiver*

    and i have not seen nor spoken to him for two whole months. 
  • video thingy. 2001-10-20 00:06:17 looks like i'm going to have to upload the vid to my domain after all... noooo! this was what i was afraid of. i don't have unlimited bandwidth, so i'm going to have to pray that not so many people download it. weird huh? :p and just to make sure i keep the bandwidth usage low, i'll only be uploading the lousy quality realmedia file. eck. lalala. sigh. 
  • where? 2001-10-18 09:09:56 where am i going to upload the video? hmm. 
  • DONE! 2001-10-17 17:50:16 after posting that weird previous entry i went off to school to discuss the stupid programming assignment with my classmates. and it is definitely one big bad assignment. gui, error handling, the works.

    then i came home and i pushed myself to finish the video because otherwise it wouldn't get done for the next... year? :p

    so it's done. at 5 in the morning. ureshii ne.

    thank god i don't have school tomorrow (i do have a midterm on saturday though) but either way i'm not going to attempt to write the video info now. mad.

    btw...is cherry lips really the favorite among garbage fans? i can't stand it. shirley sounds like a cross between madonna and kylie minogue and i can't stand either. everytime it comes to that song i skip to the next track. argh.

    what else? silence is golden. boring. can't cry these tears. weird.

    also very strange that the slower songs are much better. where's the old garbage? you know, circa vow and stupid girl and supervixen. ah well.
