Wonderland Online European Server Open Beta Coming Soon!

I just want to tell you that the Wonderland Online European Server Open Beta is coming!!!
WLO is a great game with so many unique systems, including manufacturing and fishing and so on. There's always so much to do!

Due to the increasing population of American servers, the new European Server will be launching very soon. I want to have a try on this new server, because I can have more choices and also the server is close and convenient. No more server lag! A new server means a new start, and I hope we can share in the happiness together.

Iya! Iya! IYAAAA!!! Su-chan kawaii!! *faints*

Currently Playing: Buono! - Renai♥Rider


Episode 23 of Shugo Chara! was so precious~! I did my best to resist... but.. I... just... can't! >w<

DISCLAIMER:
If you haven't watched Shugo Chara! from episode 1, don't go any further! I'll end up giving off too many spoilers yaaaah! @,@



SPOILER starts HERE!!!



So anyway, Su got captured by Nikaidou-sensei and he challenged Amu to come to his research lab. The ep itself begins with Amu running off after school to save Su. Meanwhile at Nikaidou's place, Su tries to catch the ex-teacher's attention (with that irritatingly Reiko Asagiri-ish voice) and succeeds. She also managed to make him appear chibi a couple of times. XD


Cotton pantsu?

Su wanted to clean up the room so Nikaidou lets her out. Outside, Amu, Ran and Miki continue their search for the Easter employee dorm, but end up bumping into Ikuto. He never misses the chance to tease our heroine. Heeeh. -,-


A hit on the head then this? Mean but cute!

Ikuto tells Amu of what he knows on Nikaidou-sensei's actions, and even explains who the 'lord' is: the big boss of Easter company.


Are you threatening her or seducing her!?
Make up your mind! T^T


Ikuto-sama! Waaaaaaaahh! *bites on handkerchief as tears flow like waterfalls* *sniff sniff* Anyway... Su proceeds to clean up the place, then finds the robots that the teacher made in his youth. He gets angsty and asks her not to touch useless things. He went as far as to tell Su about his plans, and why he needs a character transforming heart's egg for his project. Su panicked like hell. XD


Obviously, she revolted. lol

Art done for Su in this frame resembles my drawing style back in High School. @_@ Going back, Amu successfully infiltrates the dorm and is welcomed by an army of robots run by X egg energy. It's time for chara nari!


Chara nari with Miki resembling CCS Sakura-chan's costume.
o.O?


She seemed badly outnumbered when a ball hit one of the robots and there she found the Guardians standing by the door. They took over the horde while Amu looked for Su.


Here come the cavalry?

Before Amu's arrival, Su begged for Nikaidou-sensei to stop. This is where we learn of what happened to his heart's egg and how he deviated from his dream. Amu finally enters the room where Nikaidou and Su are, she is stopped by the X egg energy then Ran asks that she change with her.


Heeeh, it's the boomerang-throwing cheerleader! x3

She throws her baton which shatters the window, the egg machine and frees Su. The bad thing about this is she sets the X egg energy free as well, which leaks out to enter the empty robots' bodies and forms one giant trash heap. o.O Amu was determined to break it, but Su finds the picture of Nikaidou-sensei and his teacher in the monster's core. She requests that she change with Amu to fix things up.


All three character changes in one epi! Sweet! <3

Amu + Su use 'Remake Honey' to return all of the robots to normal, cleanse all the X eggs, and repair Nikaidou-sensei's broken heart's egg. I had no idea where he was hiding it btw.


Sensei's kawaii shugo chara~
(he's unnamed T_T~)


In fact they fixed everything save for the egg machine and the freakin' window. Su! You go fix them with 'pew pew pew!' and miss the freakin' window! >w< 'Scientist' disappears then Su explains that it's not too late to recover his shugo chara, and that it can be renewed as many times as needed. This obviously gives him heart despite his display of 'cool' attitude. In the end, all's well that ends well when he gets fired from Easter, and discovers that he still has a way to revive his childhood dream.






SPOILER ends HERE!!!



Sweet-desu! (´・ω・`)



In other news, I'm at home sick, AGAIN. On doctor's orders I am supposed to stay at home and rest for 2 days. NOOOOOOOOO!!! We have an apprentice meeting! God if you're really up there, have mercy on me and give my mom temporary memory loss! I need to go to that meeting even if my snot runs all over the place! T^T

Getting lucky for the wrong reasons?

Currently Playing: Eminem feat Nate Dogg - Shake That Ass For Me


Aiyaa!! @_@ I miss loafing around the house doing nothing at all. T.T

By the way, I forgot to record lucky stuff here last week, so here's my lucky receipt:


Dyaraaaan!!

I got randomly selected for a Starbucks survey 2 weeks ago, and if I finish this survey I'll get a code, and I present this to a Starbucks barista who'll give me a free tall beverage of my choice. Kewl, huh? I know. :3

Ate Jenn's first two words to the matter: "Fuck you!"

Ahahahahaha! lmao XDDDDD

Too bad the code's used now, so you won't get anything from it :p


:p


Changes in the workplace
On another hand, our department got transferred to the basement last week. I tell you, it's TERRIBLE down there. Aside from the fact that we don't get any sunshine, the place looks kinda lonely with so very few agents around. Admittedly, the room's not too lonely when the team's there, but knowing my new position, I have to go on overtime almost everyday because I have reports to finish. By the time they're gone, it's like your voice can echo off the walls of the freakin' room. :|

Another thing you can't help but complain about is the restroom ambiance. You have to hold your breath the whole time to survive the suffocating smell. I have no idea HOW some people can endure it. x_x


So here's a recap of what's new in the office:
1) Thrown down to the basement
2) New bay is a sparse, purple color-themed row of tables
3) No sound system
4) The room is big but there's nothing exciting in it
5) Restrooms stink

If my CSAT doesn't do a somersault and go back to being 80-90+, I might go back to being grim. Horrrrr~! x( And I miss the songs playing on Paul's iPod! Pfft~!

We're obviously running outta luck here. =_=


Kawaii-ness rulez
I got to sleep around 4PM yesterday because we took some time going around Waltermart and buying stuff. I also had my first facial done (wahahaha LOL). I bought a GAME! magazine (feature: Cabal Online) and Otakuzine Issue #26 featuring Lucky Star on the cover.

Here are two things I'm into at present:


Item #1: Detective Conan 'toy'?
Can you see the hidden characters?


Item #2 Shugo Chara!
Unlock!



Wahahaha! Kawaii~!! XDD


P.S.
This is a screenshot from Saiunkoku Monogatari Season 2.


Seiran mocking Ryuuki! PRICELESS! XD


Once again, I have strayed off topic. omg

Back to Basics

Currently Playing: Utada Hikaru - Keep Tryin'


I filed my VL last week, so I have 4 days straight with nothing to do, and all the time to myself. I'm looking forward to having my tired nerves treated to a massage sometime soon (time to use that Suriya gift card!), in fact I already started. I treated myself to foot spa yesterday at Waltermart before I went home. :3

It's been so long since I knew the feeling of relaxed pleasure.


Burn out = Pressure + Exhaustion
The past two weeks have been nothing but hell for me; one blow after another coming in and breaking me into pieces, literally. There was only one sentence that made me realize how much I've changed: "Your style is totally different now.. you're no longer sweet." People knew me for being the cheery neko and always have been the noisy, chattery girl whose giggle was contagious. Well I got to keep the giggle part. But I wasn't happy inside. I never once complained about work, but if people start abusing me, I have a high tendency of breaking. I used to stand up and fight back, but lately I've been feeling too helpless that I couldn't even start to lift a finger. Words used to have more spite, but in the world I am now, that's all they are: just words.

I thought of quitting more than once. This part is normal. But for me to think of morbid things against these people who've been putting me under much strain is another. If I remember correctly, a good friend once told me this: "If looks can kill, you'd be an assassin by now." I was reminded of it when Jenn told me 'how scary I look when I'm not smiling'. (seriously, do I look that bad?) Now I tell him, what good can looks do? I never have free rein, and don't wish for it, coz if I do get that I'll start taking revenge in an underhanded way.

I wish I can make them regret they were ever born.

Lately I've also been feeling that I ought to be with myself, socializing has just not been as fun as it used to be. Ate Jenn, one of my teammates and probably my closest colleague, commented on this odd demeanor she noticed. She said I was isolating myself, expressing worry that my scores may be affecting me too much. Well it's not just that, there's more to it. :( "Think of Dyo isolating herself for a while (after you fought), then think of me, and triple that."

...Ah well, good old days. How I miss them. :(


Dreaming of London
Speaking of taking a vacation, I always wanted to go to London. Not the modern one, I want to see it when it was just the era of steam engines and foggy cobblestone streets. I've always had a place in my heart for this era -- back when I was bumming around at home, I used to sketch how I visualize those days. What was it back then, Victorian period? I just remembered I wanted to watch the second season of Emma: A Victorian Romance. ^_^ Now that I have BitTorrent, I just wished I had time to download eps off the net.


Hey, there's a dog!

I know for sure foot spa hasn't been invented back then. Heck. XD


Searching for Inspiration
2 words: Saiunkoku Monogatari. I'm 10 episodes away from concluding Season 1 on DVD (but I did watch it on Animax too), and the more I watch, the more I'm convinced that after I've taken my rest, I can resume my work with a healthy start.

I'll be watching Season 2 later tonight on Crunchyroll. Watch it and give it a try. Don't let the thought of Fushigi Yugi ruin this series for you. IT IS DIFFERENT.

Anyways, I think it's time I go to sleep. WL Online on fishing and remote mode, all's well. Ta-ta~
