Pretend Chapter 5 and 6

I've started typing these chaps last night, or the night before that... haha, hmm... Still no linkies or javascript codes for jumping chapters, I know I said I'll do it when I get the time. Actually, I had some time for it before, but I'm too lazy... :) I'll leave the codes for A Phone Call Away for now, and I'll try to add the links for the other stories later.

After I post this, I will read A Phone Call Away again and recall things. Ok, I've already started typing the events I've just recently planned, but I cannot say for sure when I'm going to finish it. An Idiot's guide to falling in love will be updated later, The starting lines for the next chapter have already been typed, just waiting for the continuation

Here's the 5th and 6th Chapter of Pretend, I hope you like it :)

Zettai Kareshi Live Action First Impressions


Zettai Kareshi Chart from wiki

I’ve just finished watching Zettai Kareshi Live action and *wait* KYAAAAAAAAAA! It’s really good!! It’ll surely be a part of my favorite Live Actions and JDrama series.

As I have mentioned before, I haven’t read the manga, so I cannot compare the live action with the original manga, but from what I saw (First Episode) it’s very very very very good.

All righty, brief overview:

Riko is a girl who had a lot of unrequited love experiences since she was young. She gets rejected by every guy she falls in love with. One time, while having some coffee with the guy she likes, a full time worker in the company she’s working in, she was automatically rejected, not even given the chance to confess. Well what happened was, erm… because of the incident, she went to a certain restaurant where she seems to blurt out her heartaches, while she was drinking, a guy who was then known to be from a company called Kronos Heaven, told her that he can help her change her life.

She was then brought to a place where she was asked to answer different questions regarding her “ideal boyfriend”. She participated and answered the questions given to her, thinking that Kronos Heaven is a matchmaking company. Actually, she insisted that she doesn’t need any help, left the building and assumed the event done and irrelevant. Little did she know that something that would really change her life is coming her way.

One day, while she was preparing to go to work, a huge package arrived and when she opened it, she saw a guy. Just when she was getting freaked out, the guy from Kronos Heaven called her and explained things. She read the manual that came with the package and it said a kiss is needed for it to boot up. She did what the manual instructed but there wasn’t any effect… well that was until she came home after work. The robot lover wakes up and a lot of very interesting things happened.

I’ll stop here, before I summarize the whole episode. Gomen, I’m extremely loving the series that I cannot help it.

Anyways, this is going to be a love triangle thingy… I tell you Soshi (a.k.a Nanba-senpai (haha I just love him) real name: Mizushima Hiro) plays his role really well (KYAAAA!!) see? I just love him… and Night (Tsuchiya of Gokusen 2… real name: Hayami Mokomichi) is just adorable, I mean really… They don’t call it Absolute Boyfriend for nothing, he’s well programmed haha! Riko’s ideal boyfriend.

I’ve only seen the first episode, since only the first episode is subbed during this time, but I highly recommend it. Haha, if you love romance-comedy series that is… I personally love it! (I’ve said this so many times already… haha can’t help it). I’ll surely be waiting for the next subbed episodes and I’ll surely be watching this series. ^__^

ja ne!

Zettai Kareshi Live Action


Zettai Kareshi or Absolute Boyfriend is now adapted to a Live Action!! Yupz, actually, I’ve only ever read the synopsis of this well known manga series and I think it’s very very interesting, I’m not much of a manga reader, but I’ll probably be reading it after I finish reading Koukou Debut, Gakuen Alice and after I’m through watching the Live Action series.

I’m not going to blurt out any comments regarding the show, as I haven’t seen the first episode yet. I’ve only made a quick glance, forward forward forward thingy, because it’s already late and the first episode runs for almost an hour or so... But I’m very excited to watch this. I suppose this is going to be another jdrama/live action I’ll surely be looking forward to. ^__^

The three main characters are played by:

Hayami Mokomichi (Tsuchiya of Gokusen 2) as Tenjo Night
Aibu Saki as Izawa Riko
Mizushima Hiro (Nanba-senpai of HanaKimi and Tendou or Kamen Rider Kabuto of Kamen Rider Kabuto) as Asamoto Soshi

Pretend Chapter 4

I've said a while ago that "I'm currently working on the fourth chapter" Well, I've already finished it so I'll be posting it now. Haha, we don't have a lot of things to do so I'm taking the time updating stuffs. XD

I've already finished downloading some anime episodes on my "currently watching" list... It's already 11:31pm my time, I know it's still too early to sleep but I've been sleeping very late these past few weeks so I had to sleep early on the next days... hmm... I don't think that makes sense... anyway, I'm still trying to decide if I'm watching some of the episodes now, or if I'm going to save them for later. haha, I think I'll make up my mind after I post this post.

This is, as I've mentioned, the fourth Chapter of Pretend, I know I've said from one of my past posts that this Story is only going to have 5 chapters(?) or something, but it turns out that it's not possible to have the story completed in 5, well it is possible, but I'll have to cut a lot of parts, condense some parts and speed up the events more. That's not a very good idea (me thinks
(I originally planned a short story, but I got too overwhelmed... gomen)). I've already typed down the events I plan on making for the story so I wouldn't forget them (hopefully) I typed it on the document I'm editing the chapters on so I wouldn't have a hard time finding the file.

I think I've said too much... anyways, here's the fourth chapter of Pretend, I hope you like it.
Pretend Chapter 4

Pretend Chapter 2 and 3

The second and third chapters are up. It's long been uploaded but I was still thinking whether to post it here or not. But since I feel it's already all right, here it is... haha, I'm currently working on the fourth chapter and hopefully it would turn out fine.

Btw, Obaa-sama is a formal way of saying Grandmother (most of the people using it are the rich ones... as observed on most animes), Obaa-chan means the same only without being too formal.
Onee-chan means older sister, Okaa-san means mother

I'm using those terms on this chapter... :D Scratch that, I used it on the fourth chapter, not on the 2nd or 3rd, Gomenasai :)

Oh and I'll have to apologize, I'm too lazy to put javascript codes for jumping pages, I've only managed to put it on A Phone Call Away, the other stories... well, I'll try to put some when I get the time, ne?

Pretend Chapter 2

Pretend Chapter 3

I hope you like it, thanks :D

Thank You!!

I was Devastated when I heard the news that our system did not make it. Yep, depressed and well a bit emotional, haha! Me NOT emo really, it’s just that, I felt terrible hearing the verdict given to our group last night that I had a hard time coping with myself. Haha!

But I’m all right now, I feel very thankful and grateful for knowing such nice friends who listened to my rants, told me that everything’s going to be all right, not to loose hope… Guys, salamat jud kaayo so much! And sorry if medyo bitter ang akong mood earlier.

Now when I recall the things I’ve been thinking and doing I realized the lameness of them. My friends and my family made me remember that worrying and sulking over things that had already happened will only bring me more problems. What’s done is done and what I should do now is to take the experience and the lessons with me, Pray to God for guidance and do better next time. diba? Sa akong group mates, who I’m sure felt the same way I did, I’m sure we’ll manage, haha! Kaya nato ni… bawi lng ta. :)

Again, Salamat! ^__^

Bwahaha, I’ll be watching all the anime episodes I haven’t seen yet for now, haha, Me loves ANIME, ANIME is good, vewy vewy good… :D Visit my other blog Sweet Reflections, if you have time, it’s about anime, lots and lots of anime… :)

Haha, ja-ne~!

Nodame Cantabile Live Action


Nodame Cantabile Live Action is one of my favorite jdramas. It's also one of the best Live Action series I've seen. It's so much better than the anime (Personal Opinion), well the anime is still good, but the Live action is so much better. The plot revolves around classical music, much like La Corda d'Oro Primmo Passo, but the story's totally different. Nodame Cantabile's is a love-comedy series, well there is actually more comedy than romance, it's very very entertaining.

Brief overview. Nodame Cantabile is mainly about two music students who both study the piano. The guy, Chiaki Shinichi is an excellent piano player with a fear of riding aircrafts, or ships due to some horrible experiences when he was still very young. This prevents him from leaving the country and pursuing the thing he really wants to do, conduct. He wants to be a conductor like Vienna-sensei, a popular conductor. Well what happened was, while he was lying outside his apartment door, drunk, a certain girl, by the name Noda Megumi, Nodame for short recognized him and brought him inside her super messy, dumpster like apartment. He wakes up with the lovely sound of Nodame's piano skills and the terrible smell of her garbage-filled room. And that started it all. The serious Chiaki who thinks of everything around him in the country he was living in boring, found someone who turned his world upside down.

It's a very interesting drama, lots of laughs and really good music. The characters are all so lovable, and the story's really sweet. It's something worth watching (me thinks). :D
