I get all jumpy when it there's an on-oing sale particularly
the stuff I dig like books.
I totally support National Bookstore for coming up this crazy sale lately
wherein some of the mangas which were being sold before at 400+ and above is now
down to 75.00php only. Dattebayo!
My brother bought me some Gravitation manga!
YES, people. It's my brother who bought it for me.
I'm all praise that my brother was brave enough and thoughtful
to buy the such books on an impulse.
I mean c'mon how many brothers would be kind to buy a yaoi/shounen-ai manga
to their sister.
I'm looking for GetBackers manga too. But can't find any so far.
If you spotted one, do inform me. =)
My brother said he saw a FAKE manga though a yaoi fangirl got to it
before him.
Haha, I told my brother he should have tried talking to that girl.
Maybe that girl's heart would melt to hear how thoughtful he is.
But anyway, I'm happy so far that I've added new books to my shounen-ai/yaoi library.
Got stuff? Maybe we can trade!
To those who are not familiar with Gravitation, do watch this clip.
It's one of my favorite episodes. It's funny and a RIOT!
Useless Trivia: The clip (up to 00:20) reminds me of my Alma Mater's lovely surroundings particularly its trees. See some pics here.

Go Speed Go
Last V-day, I already saw the trailer of Speed Racer Movie. (We watched Jumper btw)
I was excited to see Speed and the rest of the gang.
I wonder if they would add the mysterious Racer X there.
I notice the racing tracks were like as if your dancing para para paradise?!
Flashy disco colors.
Well, it will be fun I hope to see it on big screen soon.
Anybody interested for a Live Gundam movie?
I've heard there was one produced in Canada?
Not sure if it's fan-made or not. People I knew who have seen it gave bad reviews.
Whatever. Just let me drive Gundam Deathscythe!
It makes me wonder why GMA keep on replaying Ghostfighter and Slamdunk.
Why can't they give the Gundam series a try again?
Starting with W.
Would there be conflict since ABS shows Gundam Seed?
Comments please.

The Japanese Interview (subtitle needed)
My brother had his first taste of a job interview.
It was for a Japanese software company and our family was excited for him.
In preparation, I guided my brother on making his resume.
Once at the panel interview, my brother said that he was surprised that
the company has sent 3 Nihon-jin representatives and 1 translator.
He was expecting that his panelists are just co-Filipinos who can speak Nihonngo.
Anyway, he felt silly at times because he felt he had lost his Nihonggo skill.
Ultimately, he found himself answering his interviewers on instinct and use Nihonggo.
He have managed to interact with ease on the topic he liked the most: programming.
My brother mentioned the panelists had him choose where would he like to work: Japan or Philippines.
He answered he's fine working in Japan.
He can see himself there in 5-10 years, as long as he can come home on holidays.
I was curious too on how his Japanese panelists looked at his resume.
After all, we did work on it. I also suggested a different lay-out since it's for an IT industry.
His observation:
"Yung ngang di nakakaintindi masyado ng English, napaintindi mo sa resume yung hinahanap nila. Panu pa kaya sa iba?"
I'm amaze on the output of his resume.
I keep scanning my brother's resume and it felt as if he's no common fresh graduate with such.
I'm always proud of my brothers. Events like this makes me feel blessed that they are my siblings.

Single Awareness Day: No More Cosplay Dates
Ah, Feb 14. This day will be full of serenading and all those lovey-dovey stuff.
I'm a romantic person too. But sometimes I stuck my tongue-out that some people are fussing so much on one day alone. When in fact, it should come out naturally.
We call Feb 14 - Single Awareness Day.
It's just a silly subtitle we put on that day. But it also got something to do with a tradition we started in our own circle, wherein we give chocolates to our friends. It's something to put everyone in the mood for love. Not just on a bf-gf level.
Any simple chocolates would do. (However, tsoknuts will put the giver in a good old teasing: ang kuripot mo pare XD ) A hand-written letter would make it more special.
Well, no matter how you see Feb 14. Single or attached you maybe, it still doesn't change the fact that it's no legal holiday. Lol. I wish PGMA did so we can all rest.
I so want a long week vacation soon.

Para Para Dance
The Haruhi Suzumiya and Lucky Star copydancing craze last year, might have a new counterpart this year.
Feel like clubbing as if you're in Roponggi?
Well, look no further. I was surprised when I heard Eurobeat/Para Para tunes at the radio. Thanks to the buses plugged to the likes of mass-targeted radio stations (y'know what I am talking about. Kailangan pa bang i-memorize yan?!)
Maybe you have heard this song before?
I can only predict if Para Para dancing will be a hit as a skit this year.
I think there was already a group 1-2 years ago who tried to present it on stage.
Well, I love Para Para. If groups would start doing it again, you might find me dancing along too. =)
Maybe GMA might take this opportunity to promote more of Initial D.
