UPDATE: Completed.

Hello once again, guys! Sorry for not posting here these past few days and weeks. But, my reason is quite good for everyone to understand why I didn't post here. First of all, I am writing my story which I will post it to Wattpad. And this morning, around 4:00AM, I have finished it.

As what I have promised a long time ago, I will post the link in here.

This Second Chance - Chiyo Amami


Please support me on this one! It will help me a lot. And, I thank you in advance.

Also, lastly, I am supposed to post my review about Batman: Arkham Origins, but it will take a while for me to post it because I want to finish Batman: Arkham Asylum and Arkham City and make a review about it as a whole. And, My review about Batman: Arkham Knight... IT will take me a good while because I need to upgrade my PC to play it, and wait for it because of the issues of the said game.

Anyway, please wait for it. It will come eventually.

Again, I thank you all!

Review: Portal 2

Portal 2, a first person shooter game (except that you don't use guns with metal bullets) that will bring you to several levels of mind boggling puzzles. You need to solve it with no other equipment in hand, other than a gun, a Portal Gun.

Story. So, the game started as the Main Character (MC; whatever name she has) standing into her "room" in Aperture Laboratories and being commanded to do certain things, which is a tutorial, apparently. Then, there. You are greeted by a noisy, annoying robot named Wheatley. And thing happened, leading you to the first parts of test chambers, up until you get your own Portal Gun, and meet GLaDOS. And sh**s happened, leading you to places. I don't want to spoil you about these things, but... yeah. The game's story is pretty much f**ked up before you realize it. Apparently, I thought GLaDOS is an a-hole towards the MC. But, when you uncover the story, she's still an a-hole. Yet, she's really kind. The characters has their own comedic factor, that makes the game lively, even though it is really dark. Even the Chapter title makes you laugh. Overall, the story is really well defined. and really unique, even the characters. SPOILER ALERT: Last battle is so damn epic.

Gameplay. The game, as what I have said, is first-person shooter game and at the same time, a puzzle game. This makes the game pretty unique. The game pushes you to think up to your extent. You thought that some of the puzzles are really difficult, but when you get it, all you could do is laugh and realize that it is easy. The thing is, it is pretty time consuming. And few puzzles are so obvious. Then add gels, which you thought it will make things so easy, but inreality, it made it a bit difficult. Because of this game, even though I'm in vacation from college right now, I got a headache. Even mentioned that "Even though our classes haven't yet started, I feel like I'm going sabaw." (sabaw definition: here) But, yeah. Overall, the ganeplay is really fun and challenging.

Music. The music of this game is really priceless, even though it's few. But, this adds to the drama, and also the comedy of the game. What I really did like? The ending song which is entitled: Cara Mia Addio, and the the credits song: Want You Gone, that is sung by GLaDOS.

SCORE:
Story: 9.5/10
Gameplay: 10/10
Music: 9.5

Overall: 9.7/10

Is it recommendable? Even though I'm not a fan of FPS, I'm going to make an exception to this one. So, Yes! This game is recommendable for those who wants their mind to be boggled.

This concludes my review about Portal 2.

Next Review will be about Batman: Arkham Origins. Although I have finished the game, I can't yet write a review about it, until I've finished Cold, Cold Heart. So, please anticipate that.

You like my review? You don't? Let me know! That helps me a lot.

Review: Need For Speed: Undercover

Apparently, as you all know I have deleted my review about this game. That is just because of the formatting, that it looks like I've just copied it from a website (which is true, but it came from my Facebook profile). But, I'll continue to post here some reviews about the games I have finished.

Before I start my review, I want to give my format on how will I review a game. First I'll give my comments about it, then scores on each aspects--Story, Music, and Gameplay--and whether I could recommend it or not. I was about to add graphics too, but... I find graphics is kind of unimportant because I play games at a PC, because graphics in PC vary depends on your PC build (which, my PC build is not that great. Mid range PC build). So, let's get started!

Right now, I'm going to rewite my review for Need for Speed: Undercover. Then anticipate later my review about another game, which I just finished awhile ago.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Need for Speed: Undercover. A game where your job is to shut down crimes, by going undercover. You're going to act as a street racer to gather some intel, but to earn their trust, all you need is to race with them, and win these races.

I am so sure that I made that synopsis up. I can't really remember the story of it, but I am pretty sure that is basically the story. That leads me to my first comment, story. The story of this game, well I can't say it is pretty unique, but it is made so well. The thing is, some segments of the story are a bit... blurry. Why?  Sound of the cutscene are a bit fast paced, that makes me don't understand what is happening. And some of the story are told in voicemails in-game. What makes this so blurry, is that the game has no subtitles. A game's story is not complete without it's subtitles, because that's where the game's story is being emphasized. But, there is one thing that get's me, yet I find it not that satisfying. NFS:Undercover's plot twist at the final parts of the game. (Don't worry, I'm just stating my comments about the story of the game, not spoil you the story of the game.) I mean, it's plot twist is kind of predictable, yet I got it so wrong when another plot twist hit me in the face. So, that's it for the story.

Gameplay. The game is mixed up with fun and frustration. I mean, the all of the events are so fun. Heck, I even liked the Checkpoint events. But, what really frustrates me are some in-event issues, like spawning Traffic in random areas. And, the events which is called Highway Battle, I find it so frustrating because traffic is really heavy. Road rage imminent when you don't got it right. Trust me, I've been there. Car selection is very wide and sorted by country and companies, which I find it so handy when it comes to car finding. Cars are not that crash prone (I think it is made of really hard steel). Opponent racers' AIs are varied, same thing to the Police's AIs. But, there's a thing that I kind of don't like about opponent's AIs (Yet it is fun for me because... SPEED). Let's say that their cars are in Tier 1 Upgraded, and mine's Tier 2 Max Upgrade, and off we go to race in a Sprint of Circuit event. When I got first place when the race started, sometimes I am outrunning them, meaning they can't chase me. The challenges left for me are dodging traffic and managing to get out of a sharp curve. And car customization is really good, with the detailed edit for certain parts of cars. Overall, even though there are its downsides, the game is really fun. Events are sometimes rageworthy and challenging, yet the essence of fun is still there.

Music. Let us make this one short. It's good, because the songs used in racing events are so fit while... racing against your opponent, or doing a run in Checkpoint events. And the music played in Pursuits are so dramatic, yet that's added as a plus factor. And for the cutscenes, okay. So that's it for the music.

SCORE:
Story- 7.5/10
Gameplay- 8/10
Music- 9.5/10

Overall- 8.3/10

Is it recommendable? Yes. As a Racing Games fan, I definitely recommend this game.

And that concludes my review about Need For Speed: Undercover.

You like my review? You don't? Let me know! That helps me a lot.

Have fun playing! TUN out!

Last Chapter: Is this goodbye?

Apparently, we are in the final days of our term, and that means we are about to end this term especially our subjects. It kinda feels so sad this time because we have had too many good professors, and they are almost our friend, or to be more specific, almost our brothers and sisters. So, here, this would be my last post as a student here, and I'll post my blogs as a daily guy who is apparently a regular bookworm.

I have no words to say, but it has been a really fun class. I wanted to have another class with our professor, if ever but in an advanced English subject. I liked this class, next to our another English class, which is ENSP3. So... Yeah.

It has been a fun time, but... this is like a song, it has an end. But, I am so sure that it has left us with satifaction until its last minutes.

I have no other things to say. I originally wanted to write a story about this class, but I can't because of the lack of time. So, I'm going to leave some memories here, and continue to write blog post as an ordinary student, teenager, and a regular bookworm.







AND LAST! BUT DEFINITELY NOT THE LEAST!

Chapter 7: Power Selfie!

Your Unknown Novelwriter taking a Power Selfie
So, this time our professor told us to have a Power Selfie. To explain it, you just wear a corporate attire and take a selfie. But, there's a twist with this one. We're going to make a blog about the companies we want to work in, in the future. What are these three companies that I want to work in? Here it is: Ubisoft, Square Enix, and/or Riot Games. Now let's get started.

Riot Games
I want to work with them because, simply, I'm a gamer of their game: League of Legends. But that is not the reason to why I want to work there, but I want to know how they can maintain the servers; how they update their game, their characters, the map, and the gameplay itself. Also, I have a Champion concept in my mind. And I want to submit it to them and join them to create that Champion in my mind.

Square Enix
Square Enix is also one of my choices when I was a in Third Year High School (the time where I had a transition of my choice in my course to be taken in college. From Medical course to IT course specializing in game Developing). Because of their Final Fantasy games, I'm curious how they have made such an awesome fantasy RPG such as these. And, it makes me want to join their team for game development, sound engineering, or story writing. Back then, I really like this company. But because of its lack of other concepts for their upcoming Final Fantasy games, I did a double take. But hey! It's still on my choice!

Ubisoft
Assassin's Creed, one of my favorite games of all time. As you have known, my dear avid readers, I have posted 2-3 blogs about that game. And these guys from Ubisoft made that game. Why I want to work with them? First of all, I'm an avid fan of History. That's why my favorite game is Assassin's Creed. That's the reason why I want to work in this company! But to elaborate more, I want to join them to develop a new Assassin's Creed game from not well known history. And, I hope when I join them, we are on the progress of developing an Assassin's Creed game set in Philippine History, Japanese History, and German History.

----------------------------------------------------------------

This concludes my post about my power selfie and the companies I want to work in. Yeah, dreaming for big companies such as these are always free. But, if you want to acheive this dream of yours, trust me, you need to work ass up to get there.

Extra Chapter: Her name is Ritsu Kawai




This is Ritsu Kawai, the girl main character from Bokura wa minna Kawaisou. Why am I making a blog post about her? It's because I like her! Not only that, I kinda want to give a little bit of an idea about the girl I like.

Ritsu, both in manga and the anime, is a loner type of girl. She's a type of girl who is really shy to others, except (or just what I saw when I watched the anime) those who are in the boarder house she lives in. Ritsu is not her when she don't have a book in her hand. Typically, a hardcore bookworm herself. What makes her more hardcore is that she reads her book while walking. But when she got too much engrossed with what she is reading, Ritsu tends to forgot to cross the street, got no awareness with a maniac, and at some time, coming home with Usa, crying. Poor Usa, because he was the one, the "perpetrator," the reason why Ritsu is crying. But in truth, she was really engrossed with what she was reading, that one scene of the book moved her. And she always read her books alone in the library when she's in her school.

Although at some time her mood is not that good, she's still a nice girl. A girl that's fit for me (in my terms). That's why I really like her.

Now, I've said that I'm going to give you, my dear readers, an idea about the girl I like, right? But sorry, I can't tell you her name due to privacy reasons. Now, first of all, her hobby: reading. We have the same hobby. Recently, we can't read any book we wanted to read. Because, college is being a bitch to us. But, I am so glad that we have got that time again.

Oh, the genre she likes most is Fantasy, and mine is General Fiction and/or Conspiracy Fiction.

Ritsu is a loner, right? She is, too, epecially when she's reading a book. Same as her, she also got herself so engrossed with what she is reading.

That's why I like her. Because we have similarities like we like books and we sometmes prefer to be alone, not disturbed. And we tend to get ourself so engrossed with what we read.

But, there are some contradictions between her and Ritsu. The girl I am describing doesn't always in library, alone, to read her book. She's in a place where our section is, and there is where she's going to read her book.

Next thing is that she don't read books while walking (yeah, it's really uncommon if we see a person doing that; also I'm contradicting myself because I tend to do that at sometime, especially when the book I am reading is so interesting.).

What's there that I could say more about her? Oh, one physical contradictions between Ritsu and the girl I like. Ritsu has a really short hair, meanwhile the girl I like has about shoulder length of hair (or longer than that).

Well, I'm going to leave a bit of extra here. Just some points that me and Usa do have in common, we like a girl who reads books, and we always ensure the girl we like her safety. Me and Usa always care for the girl we like. And yes, Another thing me and Usa have in common is that we have a really good taste when it comes on liking girls. And yes, We both like a girl who is a bookworm. the difference is that his, is a hardcore bookworm; and mine is a regular bookworm, like me.

Extra Chapter: I want to be Hachiman Hikigaya.

"I hate nice girls. Just exchanging greetings with them will get them on your mind. Start texting each other, and your heart will be set a flutter. If they call you, you're done for. Enjoy staring at your logs and grinning like a fool. However, I won't get fooled again. That's what your kind calls kindness. If you're nice to me, you're nice to others. I always end up nearly forgetting that. Reality is cruel, so I'm sure lies are a form of kindness. Thus, I say kindness itself is also a lie. I always ended up with these expectations. And I always ended up with these misunderstandings. And before I knew it, I stopped hoping. A highly trained loner is once bitten, twice shy. As a veteran on this battlefield of life, I've gotten used to losing. That's why I always hate nice girls."
-- Hachiman Hikigaya (My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU, Episode 5)


Lately, I have been watching this series. And yes, I am not yet done. There's like four or five episodes left for me to watch. But, to be honest, I really like this anime. It's not your typical moe, or fantasy, or slice of life, or, romcom (how ironic that I've said that this anime is not a romcom when the title indicates it). This anime, it made me laugh at some times. But in truth, it made me more serious. Another thing that I've said that it is not your typical romcom is the quote itself. Harsh, isn't it? That guy said it. And it was just recommended to me by a friend of mine. All he described about it is that it's real talk anime, not just some other anime.

This anime, it focuses more on reality check, rather than romance and comedy. Why? Hachiman's quotes are not just quotes. These quotes are also advices for the watchers. And for me, that made this anime so good.

Because of this anime, I kinda want to become Hachiman Hikigaya. Let me give you a little background. He's antisocial, a pessimist, and a loner. All of it are my personality (hidden personality; and except for the pessimist part). What made me like him is his quotes about love, childen, and youth. These quotes moved me, and that made me take this anime more seriously. There are scenes that will make you laugh, but I didn't laugh. And that the effect of his quotes, his attitude, and the atmosphere of the anime itself.

Lately, I have been trying to act like him. I tried to be serious at all times. But eventually, I'll fail this one. Because, as much as I wanted to become Hachiman, there are many contradictions between me, and him.

First of all, the quote I used. That's a big contradiction. Why? He said "I hate nice girls," try contradict that statement, and that's me. I like nice nice girls, and in fact, it's a major turn on for me. But, why did I use that quote? Is is because it's harsh? No. Because, there is a girl that I like right now. She is so kind, and that's why I can't help but to fall in love with her more. But because of all these kindness, it makes me so confused if she also likes me or not. Another reason why I've used this is because of the taunts I'm hearing from my other classmates. That's why, I am trying to stay away from her for awhile.

Second is that I am not that really antisocial. I just choose whoever I want to be with at some times. To be honest, I am a really friendly person, and I have friends. That's why I could not consider myself as an antisocial person.

Lastly, I am not really a pessimist. I'm half realist-half optimist. I just tend to have some negative thoughts but I just counter it with my optimistic views.

But, if there's a thing that me and Hachiman have in common? It's being a loner. Yes, I'm also a loner. Why? I have my time to gather my own thoughts, Nobody have the rights to disturb me, but myself. Another advantage of being a loner is being a silent observer. I tend to observe my surroundings, not only by my eyes but also with my ears. And I always form my speculations about my observations.

I still want to be Hachiman Hikigaya, or at least try to.

---------------------------------------------------------

I'll be ending it with three more quotes from Hachiman Hikigaya.

"Isn't changing yourself the same as running away? Why can't you just accept who you are?"

"What the hell is with everyone telling me to change? I don't want other people telling me who I am."

"They say if you change yourself, you'll change the world, but that's a complete lie. When people judge somebody, it becomes a fixed idea and an impression that lasts. A loner is forced to stay a loner. If you do your best at something and stand out, that'll only get used as fodder for criticism. Those are the rules of the Kingdom of Children."

TUN out.

Chapter 6: Freedom Writers, my judgement, and answers from questions

So, our professor made us watch this one of a kind, inspirational movie. And it's really good, because it tackles about the equality for all races. We cannot deny to ourselves that we tend to be so racist at sometimes. So to set the record straight, this movie changed it all. This is a must watch for everybody.

I'll rate it a 9.0, and it's recommendable for all.

That's end my judgement about the movie, and we may now move on to answer questions.





1. Pick 3 students and write something about their type of English that they use.

a. Sindy
   -- All we know that in this movie, she is the most recognizable Asian woman (and my crush, by far, on the movie).



Although her she barely talks in the said movie, I can describe her type of English to be an Asian English. Why, you ask? I can describe that Asian English is somehow different from actual English. There are some words for this type of English to be said with a hard pronunciation. overall, this is not your typical English.

b. Jamal Hill
  -- He is the most outstanding guy in the first parts of the movie. He's the one who always insult Ms. G. at those parts. But at the end, He's now the one who's being insulted, not by Ms. G., but his classmates. In spite of all insult he had done to Ms. G., she stood up to stop it. 


Jamal Hill uses the Black English but with a mix of actual American English. I mean, he is that type of guy who speaks colloquially, but there are times which he speaks in a manner of  American English.

c. Marcus
  -- Marcus is the typical gangster on the movie (funny how I describe him because almost all of the students of Ms. G. are in actual gangs). Despite all of it, he manage to dress well.


Author's Note: I based my answer to all of Grand Theft Auto game who has black characters in it.
Marcus uses Black Gangster English. Why? Because as what I could see, he's the only one who really maintain that Black gangster attitude, plus his language. He always speak like how CJ in the game, titled: GTA San Andreas.

2. Analyzed the English communication skills that the teachers, especially Ms. G., possessed.


-- Every teacher in the movie uses English skills that could make them look powerful. But as to Ms. G.? It's rather a different story. Ms. G. uses English skills which also makes her look powerful, but she use it to not look powerful when it comes to her students. She uses those skills that could make her look more friendly, more approachable, and as if her level is in line with her students, but her authority is still with her.

3. How did Ms. G. downplay her power?

-- She downplayed her power by being an observant at first. She first analyze the attitude and background of her students. These are two critical points that are worth mentioning, because it shows how did she really downplayed her power:
  • The insult on a paper that are meant for Jamal. She downplayed her power there by telling the some stories about the Holocaust. And because of no one who knows about the Holocaust, she surveyed her students who knows about the Holocaust. All of her students raised their hand, except for Ben.
  • The Line Game. She downplayed her power their by gaining their trust by knowing some of the few things. She asked some critical questions like "Who, among all of them, are on the gang?" and "Who have lost a friend due to gang activities."
 

4. How did her students acquire some sense of power? Show some scenes.

-- How about we go to the two critical points of the story? Because these scenes are the only worth mentioning for this questions.

  • First scene is that Ms. G. made them decide to get some notebooks she provided. Because these notebooks will act as their diary.

  • Next (and last to mention) scene is the scene where she published the "The Freedom Writers Diary."

Gamer's Love 3: Assassin's Creed

First of all, I want to apologize about not posting for our Gamer's Love for the last 2 (perhaps 3) weeks. Reasons are that I am so busy for our schoolworks, and yeah... I have trouble of finding games to base for this kind of posts. And I am so sorry for that.

My plans is that I'm going to post 3 of these for this week, sort of a payment for the lost posts weeks ago. And I'm going to have my second apology, I'm going to cancel that plan of mine. I am really sorry.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Without further ado, let's move on.

As what you can see on the title, that's the game I'm about to use here in my post for this week's Gamer's Love.

I love Assassin's Creed. In fact, you could tell that I'm a die hard fan of the series. I have played the first one up until Liberations. Even the one on the PSP. And I'm at the middle of finishing Black Flag. But, I need to hold it because as I play, there's lag everywhere! I can't play Unity because my PC didn't met the requirements of the game (Sorry, I only own a mid-ranged rig because I'm just a petite bourgeoisie.) I may also have the same problem with Black Flag in Rogue. And the others (such as the games in the mobile phones), I can't play them.

And this game, it has a big impact to me. Because of the story, the ways of the Assassins, the Brotherhood, etc. That's why if the Brotherhood of the Assassins became real, I'm going to sign up for it. I may not be good at parkour, but I can blend myself to others. (LOL!)

Let's start!

---------------------------------------------------------------------

"You're a Piece of Eden that I need to protect."

"There's one history we need to see in the Animus: the history of you and me."

"I'm Altair and you are the water. I'm dying if I'm near you."

"I'm always here to catch you when you fall."
--Haystack

"It's so sad to know that I'm not the only one who chases you. All I wanted is you to notice me."
--A certain Templar.

"My feelings are hidden really good as how I hide my hidden blade."

"Do I need to Synchronize the whole area just to see you?"

"With the Apple of Eden in may hand, I may control your mind, but never your heart."

"I may be damaged and hurt, but I can recover and move on."

"Love: it's a scenario of an Assassin in the verge of assassinating a Templar. We could notice it and run, or we'll never see it coming."

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Is it too short? I'm sorry, I ran out of ideas from the game.

But, let me know if it's good or it is too cheesy and corny.

Until then, TUN out!

Chapter 5: What I did remember.


Here is a picture of my result on every Modal Quiz we had today. To be honest with it, I couldn't remember if we had our modal lessons in the past, but I managed to get this very good to excellent mark. But seriously, I can't remember remember such a thing on modals. I may have schema on this, but I have no any memories that I have been taught this that I can't point out what items in the tests that made me confused and I have nothing to say about my knowledge of it. It might be a miracle, but I rather not to say it that it has been made by a miracle. Because, I believe in ability and skill.

Well, I rather say this result, was because of luck.

I don't want to sound humble here. I'm not good in English, a reason for me to not remember if I have taken up this lesson or not. I'm just an experienced student. So, I'm honestly typing my thoughts about modals.

Gamer's Love 2: DJMAX/Beatcraft Cyclon

DJMAX. A game not that popular, but loved by many people. Gone, but not dead, when Pentavision-the game developer of the said game- merged with the studio called GameOn, making DJMAX Technika Q their last rhythm/action game. But then, the franchise of the game was bought by Nurijoy.

Lately I've been playing Beatcraft Cyclon, the descendant of DJMAX Technika and a game that was made by Nurijoy, on Timezone Gateway. As a commemoration of the game I loved, here are my quotes for the game.

---------------------------------------------------------------

"DJMAX taught us the important lessons about love:
*Everything has a right timing. Don't go rush on things, or go laying low.
*Make sure everything is close to Perfect. One mistake could end up with Break.
*Remember: A song has a start and an end. Relationship does too.
*Set your speed. Make sure that you're not going fast or going slow."

---------------------------------------------------------------

The first one is based from the mechanics of the game. I admit it. It's kind of corny.

Below are song titles mashed up to become a quote. And forgive me again, because it's too cheesy and corny.

---------------------------------------------------------------

"Dear my Lady, I Remember The Last Dance we had under the Colours of Sorrow."

"Love is Beautiful, they say. But believe me, Forever doesn't even exist."

"Hello Pinky. I Want You to be my Sweet Shining Shooting Star in our Secret World."

"Right Now I'm having a Sweet Dream in the Melody of our Cosmic Fantastic Lovesong."

"I've always had my Oblivion under The Clear Blue Sky."

"STOP yourself for having your Revenge. Because at the End of the Moonlight, you find yourself Waiting for the Sun."

"In My Heart, I've always wanted to touch your Lovely Hands. And please Stay with Me Here in the Moment."

Chapter 4: No... and never will be... (part 2)

I am a musician. An amateur musician who plays the violin. Music, though, is not in my talents. That's why I'm still an amateur when it comes to this. I could play well.

Because of the rhythm games I played, and anime shows I watched that has too many classical music (such games like, DJMAX [Rest in Pieces], and Bandmaster [Rest in Pieces]; and anime shows like, Nodame Cantabile, and Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso [Your Lie in April]), I aspired to play different musical instruments. But, when I was still a child, I've always wanted to play the Violin. And I also aspired to become the legendary classical musicians. Like...

 
Ludwig van Beethoven

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Franz Joseph Liszt
They are my personal favorites. They are the one I aspire so much. But... I will never be them. First of all, I'm just an amateur Violin player.

It is a good thing that I aspired for them so much. Because without them, I could've just listened and liked some other sh**ty Pop songs of the west or the Philippines (Where I am.) I'm not pointing at every song, but I'm pointing at those nonsense song that I can see that it's being used for famewhoring. They are countless of good songs here, but there are really sh**ty songs that exist.

It is really essential that I thank them for their contribution to mankind. Because without them, people may have been listening to what I have said former.













Chapter 3: No... and never will be...

We are asked what we want to be, but never will be (hence, the title.) It becomes just only a figment of our imagination. We just tend to imagine what is the feeling of becoming them. But, we have to face the reality that we are not going to be them.

When I was in High School, I read something from an anime magazine about a show where the character use his skill in dating sims (Galges, if you want to call it) to capture or make girls fall in love with him. Why? He just made a contract with a demon. It caught my interest in a single swoop.

I watched it. And as I finish it, I wished that I want to become him. Well, who is he, you ask? From my favorite show, The World God Only Knows, he is Keima Katsuragi.

It was really good that I tried to become him. Because, first of all, I'm a gamer. And I create quotes that I could get from the games that I play (not quotes from characters). The thing is, those games are not dating sims. So I create quotes from random games I play. And I'm a person who is really bad when it comes to terms of love.

I just ended up making quotes from games, not applying them to real life. I tried to apply them in my life, then I failed. So I just face the harsh reality that I will not become him.

But, it was really a good idea that I have liked this character. because of him, I have found another use of games.

Chapter 2: My childhood crush

Apparently, we are told to type about something with from past. And I have no idea what am I going to write this time. Because, all of the thing that something to do with my past that I could think of are now in here in my blog.

But something had nudged me. Another memory. My childhood crush. But don't think of any person, because my crush is not your regular person. Because, she is a robot. And her name is XJ-9 aka Jenny Wakeman from My Life as a Teenage Robot.

I couldn't remember the exact reason why I have liked her. All that I could remember is that when the show is on, I was sitting in front of the TV and watch it.

But, because our cable was cut short, I'm not able to continue the show. And I almost totally forgot it.

Now, lately, I had remembered this show again because of a (yes, it is really weird) cartoon porn video. Then suddenly, I am so happy that I remember this, and also disgusted because of the method of remembering it.

But then, I am so happy, so I had downloaded it again (not the porn vid, but the series.) And yeah, because I had felt I got in touch with her again. And I am so surprised that it has 3 seasons. And yeah. I am so really happy. Up until now I was smiling from ear to ear because of the show.

And, I remembered that one thing that had impacted on my life since that day. It was liking twin-tailed girls. And when I was watching it, I, kind of, felt sadness when I am not in the midway of the 2nd season. because I don't want to end it and, if so, I had been wanting Nickelodeon to have another run of this show or have a reboot.

But probably not. So, I'm not going to expect a lot from them. So, I'm just going to give my thanks to her, because she, somehow, she had been part of my childhood.

Extra Chapter: Things called fireworks

Fireworks. Sparklies that brighten up the cold and blue night for a brief period of time. When seen, other people look at it with such amazement. Others stared in wonder, thinking "how they made this kind of thing?" It give us fun, and we appreciate it. But, as for me, I don't see the fireworks the same way I did when I was a child.

Every time, as long as there is an announcement that they will be having a fireworks display at a said time, my mother or some of my other companions insist that we must watch it. I, as a child long time ago, feel so happy and we got to watch it, until it finished and we get exhausted and go home. The biggest fireworks display that I have ever seen is in Hong Kong Disneyland. It lasted for about... 30 minutes if I remember it correctly. That day was really special for me. Because I only have not seen that spectacular fireworks, but also it is my first time to go outside of the country.

I still like fireworks, though. But... it is only until after I graduated High School.

Still remember the girl I have mentioned in my "Inside the hood" post? She is the reason why I have disliked fireworks. Don't get me wrong. I watch fireworks, but the thing is... I can't appreciate them anymore, since that event.

Here's how it goes. We had our date together (because I accompanied her to a certain university. She just attended the culminating activities of some program she had joined. After that, you probably have an idea what happened next. And sorry, it had nothing to do with the birds and the bees.) But, the problem is... We don't know what are we going to do in our date. And I remembered something about a competition of fireworks in a mall near that certain university. So, I insisted that we watch it.

Another problem is that she must be home at around 5-6PM, but she broke it. She wanted to watch it with me. And because of it, she had gone home so late. Little did I know that she had been scolded when she got home, a reason for her to stop our relationship (But... she actually included something I find that a lie. I may perhaps post about that too.) Upon knowing that, I became so paranoid, a guy who doesn't want the worst case scenario to happen. I cursed myself of insisting her to watch the fireworks.  No. Please don't... I thought you wanted for our relationship to work out? That's my thought at that time. I'm on the verge of being a depressed guy because of it. Later that night, we had our "final" say of I love you and I started to move on.

After it, those things happened. The after events which I have told in "Inside the hood." (If you haven't read it, I might as well suggest to read it. You may see the connections.)

Until then, I just watch the fireworks, watch the people who really appreciate and likes them. But I myself, I have lost my appreciation. I hated fireworks.

We thought we had our happiness so much we could die. But in truth, happiness last for a brief period of time. Just like fireworks.

How to define sadness?

Sadness. We always feel that. There will be no point in your day where you will not experience or, might as well, feel this kind of emotion. You thought that you are so happy, but deep inside you, is your other self, crying. Why we always feel this?

Have you had any memories? Because you are not human if you don't. Kidding aside, this is one factor that could affect you, that's why you feel like crying. It is either someone close to you died, had a really bad break-up, or perhaps you have suffered from a bad injury (Which, to think of it, not a reason to become sad when you remember it. Instead you go, "Whoo! Look at my scar! This defines my success!") That's why, some people who are so talkative and active, becomes so silent and a bit timid because somebody or something may have triggered the memory switch that have caused to change acts. One example for that is, the well-known: music. If you don't even get that, maybe you should take time to ponder on things.

Another thing is present occurence. Why? Let's just say that you are liking someone. And you could feel special when you are noticed by that person. But, when you witness that person mingle with somebody else, you feel a miner is using his pickaxe to dig his way in. In short, you feel that your heart is being shattered into pieces. Also, when you hear rumors. You, don't even deny it, can't help but to think those rumors are true. That's why some person thinks of anything rash, without properly asking for the truth from the person involved, which is the person you like. That's why we end up achieving nothing.

Another thing is, but not really, having your self-esteem be lowered. But, I will not elaborate thing about this. So, take another time to ponder on this if you also not get my point.

What is the purpose of writing this? Nonsense? Nope. The purpose of this is to spread some positivity. Because, it is okay to be sad, but not overly sad. Just take a little time to be sad. Because if you overdo it, You will not see all the positivity that is all around you. Surrounding you. You cannot even appreciate them.

Just FEED.  Face, Erase, Evolve, and have Determination.
Face all of your fears.
Erase all of your bad memories.
Evovle into a new person. And;
Determination is your best weapon.

Almost forgot, don't forget to smile. Because, in just one smile, you are one problem less.

Spread the positivity! Good night.

Extra Chapter: (insert title here.)

So... as what I have posted yesterday, I was about to post here my story. But, the thing is... I cannot post here, on this blog of mine, that story. Asking why? I have conducted some sort of search in the settings about copyrights. But sadly, I encountered none of it. So, to avoid copyright issues, I'll be posting my story to Wattpad (I just hesitated to use this site for uploading. It's because I don't want my story to be published by a company who started to make books which is so entertaining, but now ended up as a book publisher of stories which its primary targets are gangster-wannabes, or in the Philippines we call it: "Jejemons.") or any other story uploading sites. And post the link here. How about that?

Oh, if you could, my dear readers, please help me find a good sites where I could upload it other than Wattpad. Thank you.

Now, to my main reason why I am typing right now. There's a purpose why this post is entitled like that. Because, my WIP (Work-in-Progress) story haven't yet got a title. Well, yeah... It's a good reason to point out that it is still WIP, and truth to be told, I have only written three chapters, aside from the prologue. I have still a long way to go.

Here is the synopsis of it (Please to tell you, my dear readers, that this synopsis is just made up and it's not yet final.):

"I'm just a mere stranger who cares for you."

Due to a heavy heartbreak of his past relationship, Firancs Lorunes is suffering from a deep depression. To make it even worse, their memories kept on appearing in his dreams.
But, the observant yet unobtrusive classmate, Lenalie Friscater, noticed him. She wanted to help him. Help him not to be a philophobic person.
This plan of hers... will it be a success? Or a failure?

There you have it! Well? I don't know you guys if you'll find this story of mine interesting. Either way, I'm going to tell it again: I write to express, not to impress.

I didn't include the last line. It is because I dedicate this to a certain yet special person for me. I'm not going to mention her here, so... I'm going to leave it to your imaginations now, my dear readers (Ha-ha)

Also, it's because this is a fiction, based on reality.

Again, This is The Unknown Novelwriter. See you tomorrow in the next post! Good Morning/Night, wherever you are.

Extra Chapter: Just some random things.

As what I feel right now, some of my visitors here in my blog thought that I will be posting some stories. Here's my answer: Yes, occasionally. But, the thing is... my blog is not designed to be posted with stories that I have created. This is created for my activities in school, extracurricular activities, and things, I wanted to share with my visitors (even thought I don't know them) that I don't post on my social media accounts. I post here like as what I am, as a person. Thus my name: The Unknown Novelwriter.

But, I am still going to try to post some of my self created stories. Who knows? I might post here the love story I am currently writing.

Moving on. Right now, I can't think of anything to post in here. Am I going to rant? Write a review about the things I have watched, played, or read? Or just some ordinary post? Well, I think of one purpose right now: that is that I have announced about what my blog really is. And yeah, I might post here also some of quotes that pops out in my mind. I am going to list all of it, and at the end of the week, I'll post it here.

And yeah... I am so out of word to type right now. I can't think of anything to type in here, really.

I'll be back tomorrow for another post.

Extra Chapter: Inside the hood.

Now, I think many of my colleagues and friends are apparently thinking why am I wearing a jacket with a hood all throughout the day, starting from the time when I had my uniform. I have my own reasons for that. And those reasons, I am going to reveal it. Right here, right now.


It is not just only a protection for my body from the cold surroundings when I am inside a classroom that is also a freezer of a fastfood chain, or a protection from the piercing rays of the sun, or just because I like to wear it. There is a lot more meaning to that. it is about my past, a past that they say it is so fun, but the thing that I could say is... it is really not.

Back when I was in high school, I had fun with my classmates. I made friends with them. I thought there is really a friendly environment in the section where I belong. But... I have been so wrong. Because inside that friendly environment is another environment that is full of trash and waste. If you don't get what I mean, an atmosphere that is somewhat the opposite of what I have said awhile ago.

Of course, inside a classroom, teasing one another is really inevitable, so does bullying. But... the thing is, I am the point of their bullying. I could accept that they see me as a weird person, and I have a peculiar attitude. But... even though I am so silent and I have nothing to do any task, works, reading, or any types of crap, This one guy, he always chose to do offensive things like throwing things at me, slapping me, or anything bullcrap that he find it so fun. And... he does it out of nowhere, and he do it for fun.

And now, this little mothercrapper, has the side of almost 90% of the class. 9% has nothing to side on (but probably, joins sometimes on the 90% group), and 1% who sides on me, which is my bestfriend. And because of this statistics, those classmates of mine joined to bully me.

And one time, there was an issue which I, also, have been involved. That issue is the only mistake i have done in that class. And, as I apologized to those who have been involved here, as to what I have found here, 1 out of 3 persons who actually accepted my apology. The remaining two, I thought they have accepted it. But... again, I have been so wrong. The guy just doesn't seem to care, but I know that even if he talks to me, he somewhat holds a grudge on me. As to what I have noticed that sometimes when we talk to each other, we have had this awkward feeling.Unlike the girl, she continued to give a crapload of bullying. Even worse is that almost of the class knew that I have done the mistake, but they still do bullying at me. But, it really gives me a good lesson: "I have gone to a war that I don't know how to fight it."

And I have had a relationship with a girl from the class of one of my friends. But... this relationship just lasted for a short period of time. But as she ended this relationship of ours, she texted me that she still like me (Well for the sake of everyone, she said: "I still love you.") after a small exchange of texts. And then I replied "So do I." Because, as she had ended it, I was not able to move on, but, after a week that now I feel capable of moving on, that's when this happened.

But I was an idiot. I belived it so much. Because, I have texted her quite a lot of times. And, I didn't even get a single reply. And, that comes to a point that I have asked her what is the status for the both of us because at that time, I don't want to end it and yeah, I still love her at that time, and still, I haven't got a reply.

Then I message her at Twitter, because that's where I found her so active. I asked her again about our status, and at last. I have received her reply. Her indirect reply. Unfollow in Twitter plus hurting tweets that made me realize that she is just making me believe that she has still feelings for me. I felt so depressed, but... after some more realizations, I'm holding a grudge against her.

But... it doesn't end there. Because right now, I would like to give my sincere gratitude for meeting these humans (if you think that I'm a bit harsh here, then here: friends). Because without them, I will not have any humans to rely on. First of all, my bestfriend Abegail. Next are these guys, the humans: Andrew, Anthony, Joseph (Seph), and Reginald.

Why have I mentioned my gratitude? It is because of this happening.

I am an aspiring musician. I play the violin, actually. But amateurly. I practiced it and had lessons for at least one month and a quarter. Now, as we all know, when we're having any musical lessons, recital is really inevitable. And I have been there done that. The thing is... here. I have posted to my section's group. I just posted that I need their support for my upcoming performance on a mall show. For at least 3 people in that group, they have liked it. But... what's worse is in the comments. And, this invitation happened after I have graduated High School. And yeah...this is the internet, and cyberbullying is inevitable also.

I just posted an invitation for everyone to come at my performance, but I have received comments that as if they do not believe it. They didn't know how much effort I have exerted on my practices and lessons. And, I am really offended. So, I have deleted it. But after 2 days, I posted the invitation again, and I think you know the drill in here. I got offended again and deleted it, and... I have made the most satisfying decision: leave the group of my section. I even posted a status about it, and I was indirectly pointing about my section.

The perfomance day had come. I waited for someone to show up. And I waited for nothing. The only one who came to my performance, among those who I have invited, is my buddy, Andrew. Also, my aunt and uncle. I received some good luck message from some of my classmate, saying that they can't go, and good luck. And I really not find it so sincere because, I know them. but, I have received messages from my buddies, Seph and Anthony. Even though they can't  go and bidding me good luck, At least I know that they are really sincere. And even though my bestfriend didn't texted me, nor appeared to my performance, I could feel her support.

But... It was an utterly complete failure. My performance went so wrong, even though I have practiced the piece for about 2 week. And because of it, I barely go to the music school where I studied violin.

In those times, you could say that it is really bullcrap. But, along with those times, I have been playing a game which has totally inspired me. It is a game called Assassin's Creed.

Because of it, my fondness of jacket with hoods (the open and plain ones, not the closed and has a brand name which is shouting at the front.), have increased, and I have used them since I got my uniform.

I know that there will be always an encounter with persons whom you know, and it is really inevitable. But I choose those person, those I want to see and meet again. And that's where the purpose of my jackets go in. As I ride the LRT, going to school or going back home, I'll just put my hood on, act according to the ways of the Assassin, and scan the area for any Templars. If there's one or two, never remove the hood, if there's none or have seen and met someone that is an ally, there are two options: make the hood stay on, or remove it.

Because I have now my ways. I am free. I am now lashed out from the chains. And, someday, I will have my revenge on them. Not that I will kill them, but I will show them that I am the most successful among them, and if they need help and approached me, I'll just lock myself inside my home.

"I could give a person either of these two greetings: with a warm smile, or a cold stare."

Chapter 1: Weird things in MY Bedroom


If someone could see the bedroom, there are no things that I could say a weird thing in my room. I mean, it is almost wholesome when someone look at it. But, I could state that there are thingsin my room. First of all, my three pillows (throw pillows to be exact.) Nothing weird, right? 'Cause it is only a pillow. But the thing that makes it weird is that it is not your everyday, or typical, or ordinary throw pillow. Because on those pillows, has a girl anime characters printed on it. Even though I own three of it, I just don't do anything weird crap on them. I just use them to snuggle when I have fallen asleep.

Anything more, you say? Nah, there's nothing to write down here anymore. unless the reader could consider my violin on the top of our cabinet, or the stack of books at my headboard of our bed as a weird or strange thing.

Author's Note

Hello. This is the first blog for my first blog site.  I am not good in typing blogs but... I'm going to try my best to do blogs in this site of mine. And before I introduce myself, I am going to use the style of as if I am talking to the readers like a normal conversation, on typing my blogs. Uhm... Now, let's get started now.

I am Francis Ron German B. Chavez. But, as you can see, I use a different name, which is Keima Ayasaki. It is just a combination of my two favorite characters from my two favorite anime, which is entitled Hayate no Gotoku and The World God Only Knows.

And according to what I type in my mobile games, sites, and other sh**s, my description is simple: I am just your regular bookworm. I'm a student in a university known as Far Eastern University - Institute of Technology, which is an intistute of FEU that has been formerly called FEU - East Asia College known to handle the courses of Information Technology, Engineering, and Computer Science. I currently study BSITAGD, which is a course of IT, but it specializes at Animation and game development. You, the reader, may get the hint that I am a gamer, and you may be right.


And... again, welcome to my site. I am The Unknown Novelwriter, the writer who writes to express, not to impress. And I write for no one.
