Hi. I was watching an anime (I don't wanna say which casue I don't want people to tell me that I spoiled it for them) and in the anime a dude gets cursed or something like that... so he starts saying that his shoulder hurts and other friends of his tell him that maybe it's the Mizuko Curse, to which he replies: "I already told you! I'm a virgin!"

My question is the same as the title of this blog: What is the "Mizuko Curse"?... Maybe its something out of Japan and folk over there or I don't know what. I tried searching it on the web but couldn't find anything. So if someone out there konws and could give me a clue or explanation to what this curse is I would be inmeansly grateful .

Sorry for the inconvinience but thanks for the help.

Man, is this c.lass easy.

Reetesh would still woop my a$$ at it, lucky for me he studies a long long way from here. Jejeje.

I really don't know what to do... I'm trying to decide weather I like or not T-Pain's music.

I'm confused cause his music sounds nice and I like the whole techno sounds he does with his voice while singing... but after a minute of hearing a song of his it really bores me, I mean yeah! somebody did you wrong and you love a sketchy job lady but come on! just get on with it. Its nice that you're going original with the thmes of your songs but it really bores me and hurts me at the same time cuase I've heard an interview of his on Howard Stern and he seems like a cool dude.

Would like some feed back here, please. Is their a song I need to listen or can I get more chicks if I play his music or maybe I'm just to empty of a person to understand the depth of his lyrics ... I don't know. Holla Back!

Well not really acid flashback because I'm 23 so don't have enough life experience for a flashback and I've never done acid cause I literally once saw the brain of some dude in a science expo in a college who spent just some time of his life doing LSD and it was not pretty... or maybe they were lying to me, either way LSD frightens me for some reason.

Ok but from what I've gotten from seeing tv and other A.V. mediums of entertainment... I think I can describe it.

***The Following Contains Huge Story SPOILERS on MGS4 (Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of The Patriots)***

So I've been for quite some hours in front of the PC and its about 4 am on this Saturday morning. Just some minutes ago as I had woken up from my like 15 minutes dozing off in front of the PC since I'm bored out of my mind waiting for The Dark Knight to finish downloading.

Anyways, I just dozed off from what I feel was 2 minutes time and in those 2 minutes I saw the last and real ending... and just as Big Boss is telling Snake that he is gonna take Zero back to nothing to end the cycle and start something new... I see Big Boss walking slowly towards Zero and the exact scene as in the game with the soft intense music score as the game and as Big Boss positions himself behind Zero and is turning the valve on his [Zero] oxygen tank he [Big Boss] says these exact very serious words:

"I'm taking Zero back to nothing" ... (3 second pause) ... "I'm bringing sexy back"

ALL OF THE SUDDEN the BGM has faded into a low volume playing of the Justin Timberlake song "Sexy Back"... and as Zero is sufficating and all I kept see was a semi wide shot but still keeping Big Boss, Zero and Snake in frame as Snake and B. Boss nodded their heads to the song but keeping a straight face.

WEIRD!!!

UPDATE : Finished downloading and watching The Dark Knight as of 7:20 am and I only have one thing to say:

GIVE LEDGER THE OSCAR!!!!

Man was that a great movie and Heath Ledgers performance was so friggin surreal and just genious that its scary how it all folded out in his life and so so so so so so so so so sad after you finish seeing the movie. Some parts that were in the trailers weren't in the movie, specially since I downloaded a video camera version of the movie (when someone with a camera goes into the theater, places it on the top center seat and films the whole movie)... so I guess I'll probably see that part in the DVD version, which I am so going to obtain, somehow.

GIVE LEDGER THE OSCAR!!!!

I don't know but over here its hot as hell because it summer time and I live near the ocean and that means that its hot at night as well as during the daytime.

Lets me try to recap my last 3 months of my 3rd Cycle B of the Systems and Information career.

The Rules Have Been Set

Well basically my first and second cycles of the career, also commonly known as "General Year" where like kinda going back to high school. Other then a few new subjects, I felt my first year as a breeze or some what of a warm up. I will say I got a bit cocky after starting the 3rd cycle A and thinking to mysel: "Bah! This will probably be more of the same"; little did I know that this was the time when serious programming and deep software insidness was about to come... so much that I almost flunked one of my subjects, ALMOST!

So after learning that tough lesson, I went on to my the 3rd cycle B with a new state of mind and knowing that my real studies have started and will continue to go from now on. Basically, I'm playing by a new set of rules, but been the rascal that I am I always try to bend them some what in my favor. NO! I don't bribe anyone! I just try to befriend teaches kinda like how Master Roshi was Goku and Krillin's teacher but also their friend. I hope you get what I'm trying to say.

I STARTED WITH A WILL BUT B**** BLOCKED MY WAY

I had heard about these type of teachers before but little did I know they would soon come to look for me. Everything was going fine, starting my 3B cycle.

Compitent Netbeans/Java teacher? Checked

Compitent Linux/Operating Systems teacher? Checked

Compitent Systems Analisis teacher? !

And here is where the sh!t hit the fan big time. OK, I don't know if theirs this same saying in other parts of the world but in Spanish I've hear the saying: "Por cualquier camino llegas a Roma" which means "By any way you reach Rome". This means that no matter which road or way you take, as long as you reach Rome you are on the right way. Same thing applies to programming and analysing, as long as you reach to your objective or the real objective... it doesn't matter what road you take or how many lines of programming you type, your real objective to creating something isn't to make it perfect from the beginning but to make it and then perfect it as you go on elaborating within it, just first get what ever you are creating to work. (I guess you can apply it to other field of study too)

Getting all the jibber jabber out of the way. This "woman" or whatever she can be called made me really hate the subject because everything you did was wrong. So basically if you didn't think exactly as she did you were dead wrong. Man, we [my c.lass] gave that b**** rope and she used it to hang us all with it.

We first tried to talk to her like reasonable human beings and how her learning method isn't really working with us and frankly how we have gotten second opinions on the course and that frankly her teaching could be a bit "crooked" (to not say complete dog sh!t). Well that didn't work and so we went to the principals office and to the dude who oversees this career department and they talked to her and she talked to us and why didn't we try to reason with her before talking to the overseer dude and I was thinking: "What the @#$% did you think we were trying to do for the past weeks you @##~€€¬&%$$ !!!", and all sort of other nasty stuff but I calmed down and went with the flow.

So she tried to do better to some extent but their was already problems because she was whyning to us how this c-lass should be a 3 hour c-lass and we only had 1:30 hrs per c.lass, to which she had already missed 5 c.lasses almost straight. So she complained on how short time we got per c.lass but she basically never came... hmm .

Anywho she quit teaching the subject about two weeks ago but not before leaving us with a little gift. She apparently quit and complained on how the c.lass' level was very low and how it wasn't her fault (you know to cover her a$$). So then this a$$ who oversees the career came and told us that they were switching teachers (as if he had come to that conclusion on his own or something) and that since its so close to finals then they are taking away those recuporatory exams from us... basically we were f'ed no matter what we did. What could we do?... the college was covering its a$$ and kinda seemed like they cared for the alumni. Bastards.

The bright part of all this turmoil is that the teacher substituting was a capable and reasonable, one which I have great faith in. Also, just a few hours ago I took this subjects final exam and although I know that basically the college wants to screw me and my c.lass over so that we can pay to take the course again... I have faith in the teachers judgement more then in any other teacher. Although, non in the c.lass expects to aprove this subject at least we didn't go down without a fight. Hey who knows, maybe we did approve or maybe not. Theirs really not much to say about this other then F*** It!

-0-

I still got some more things to write about but its very late and I'll do it tommorow I guess.

See Ya in P2.

Yup another of those protocle blogs. I guess the meaning is what counts. I saw lots of fireworks last night... man, was that really noisy but very pretty.

Well as protocol being in any blogsite community... a Merry Christmas blog is in order. Hope you all got wat you wished for and had a nice time with those that mean something to you.

My gift to the community? An anime gif. (Can't say of who or whom but those who are up to date with a certain manga know who I'm talking about... and know this gif is friggin SWEET!)

Enjoy

So? What do you think? Am I a fraud or a fan of MGS4? (Click to Enlarge)

Putting an end to my MGS4 wait // moustache days. The razor was just half an inch away before I taught of taking the pic. Appreciate s***!

Give me your feedback. If you like the pic give me a comment high five. XD

Cheers!

Yeah so as I'm surfing a little something known as the Internet... I kinda like to here my Mp3's on my PC on Winamp (my personal best choice for this task, unless you know of one better) and by the "Shuffle" option, because I have alot of variation on my Mp3 list.

So the shuffle began on Shania Twain - You're Still The One (FYI: I'm not gay I just heard it around the time I was in sixth grade when Shania Twain was popular and it got stuck in my mind) and as the song went on and I uncounciously started to listen to the lyrics... I think I went a little gay for a couple of seconds and taught to myself: "Wow... thats a nice message... I wonder what it's like to have a person like that in your life".

So right there and then as The Cosmos//Universe//God//Gantz taugth I was crossing over to the other side a bit too much, it reeled me back and as soon as the song ended it began playing Kevin Little - Turn Me On and it began talking about a girl telling the dude to "push it harder back on me" and I taught: "F*** Shania Twain! This sounds so much better! ".

Just when you think you're maturing... you realize you're still a horny teenager inside.

Hey guys. Its  been quite some time since I last blogged and well... basically their is nothing game related so far as to new releases. I'm a bit sad to not feel that last year hype whe everybody and their mothers where coming out with incredible game after incredible game and hearing on the web and podcasts how 2007 is probably the new 1999 of video game history blah blah blah. I mean, personally I think that last statement was bit upheld, 2007 was a very good year for games but it was no revolution like 1999.

Well I guess theirs always 2009. So to what the title of this blog comes to. So  I was on the bus coming back from school // college in the afternoon because I went to finish a homework I had to present at night (when I have c.lasses). So generally, bus rides are kinda boring and as long as you mind you buisness nothing really exiting happen. 

*Before I continue, some people from more advanced city might think I'm inventing some things or BS'ing but for those that come from developing or rural areas where basically one only big bus company dont exist. Their are no bus passes and you have to give you money to a lady//dude who goes by the Coaster bus recollecting the toll. Also from time to time people will get on the bus to sell you candy, mini staplers, keychains, etc. 

Just letting you know.*

So for some time now I've seen this dude come on the bus and trying get some handouts from people, only instead of selling stuff he tries to play jokes on himself saying that he wasn't a product of love from his parents but rather hatred from his father (it makes more sense in Spanish). He starts then to try and pull form yanks on people saying like stuff about them. So up to now I've seen him say exactly the same things over the first two times. What changed the third time is that almost everything he said I kinda felt like he was trying to mock me. He always mentions someone who had his hair cut by pencil sharpener (I had just gave myself a John Cena like very short haircut, specially cause its summer hear), he then spoke about how concentrated and serious a young man was (I had just come from programming and was very taughtful of the programming code I had just typed). So when the dude started to come my way asking for cash I was think to myself: "Yeah b!tch, just try to ask me for cash".. so when he came to my seat, all of the sudden I went blank minded and just staired at the dude like for a minute. After that minute the dude taught I was the weird one and stepped away from me like very slowly, as if a Rottwailer was showing his teeth or something at him.

Man what a weird bus drive, I dont remember ever going blank like that, or at least going blank like that doesnt allow you to remember stuff like that. I bet I will see that dude on some bus ride again. Awkward!

Its done! Thanks to all who Ba-Rocked The Vote. It really didnt matter for who you ended up voting, as long as you voted. Thas what really matters. Congratz youth of America, you are now part of history.

Also, have you seen Gen (Street Fighter Alpha) on Street Fighter 4? I think he looks the most bad@$$. I kinda liked more the slicker anime version of him on during the Alpha day but this one looks so much darker and gritier. Kinda like an Akuma feel to him.

Also he kinda has a vibe like: the Third Hokage (Naruto) or The Leader of the 13 Divisions (BLEACH). So some anime is still present, and I'm fine with that.

Hey guys, I don't know how many 18 and up guys are in here and read my blogs and live in the US., but remember to vote today Nov 4th.

If you voted early then that awsome too, but remember that for those who haven't voted yet then today is your last day. It doesn't really matter for who (that's not true personally) but exercise your right to vote.

Also, I've heard oñn the news that sometimes some computers that register the votes aren't working well, even some people who are trying to vote for one candidate end up voting for another because the computer is wacky. If this should happen, make the people around you and incharge of the ballots know this (specially other people around you who come to vote) so that this mistake can be corrected ASAP. Don't be silent, speak up and defend your citizen's right.

Ba-ROCK The Vote!!

So I was downloading stuff illegaly from the web... you know, like we all do from time to time. As soom as the hosting site asks me to input numbers and letters to avoid spam I guess... this comes up: (Click to Enlarge)

Creepy or just funny coin...?

Oh man! Has anyone else seen that Dove soap commercial where they say that other soap leave residues on your body.

So they they two ladies in towels who have washed with one with dove soap and the other one with another brand of soap. Then they turn on a black light and like the "other brand" lady has her body coverd by some kind of white paste. I was like: "their is no way that is soap, they got that lady from some b.ukake set or something".

(Spelled that wrong for a number of reasons, although I think only a few understand why i've stated this act.)

It was really disturbing.

Just found that where the Laser Tag thingy used to be and the amusement park in general... has been closed for over a year. I taught: "Maybe we can go painball" but then I saw that they only give you 60 pellets and 1000 more will cost 100 dollars.

Their is no God I guess. I just wanted to celebrate my birthday by shooting stuff at other people without going to jail for it... and I guess not killing them either. Specially since I couldn't celebrate it day and date because I had finals and an extra c.lass work to present.

My c.lassmates and kinda friends have given me an alternative... get stone cold drunk, go to one of those amusement parks / fairs and go on the rides and maybe go to the bolling alley next to the fair and boal and / or play in the arcade. You know what? That Plan B doesn't sound that bad all and all. Except for the blind drunkness but I think I can work around that, although who knows I just that bumbed about everything else going bad (Otakufest 08 ).

Oh I almost forgot, some new blog updates:

Diwali crackers and Otaku-ness

Tapping to the beats : "Rhythm Tengoku Gold" Review

Gears Of War 2: Anime Or Gay Friendly?

Enjoy!

P.S. Note to self, do not write long blogs because people don't like to read them. XD

Well, I think I've overcomed the whole deception of me not going to the Otakufest 2008... yes, I guess a year might go by really fast but I would have liked to get back into the community aspect of Anime, Manga and TCG (Trading Card Game) or at least observe very passively. =D I guess theirs nothing else to do but to wait.

Well I've been playing for a few weeks now that beautiful game known as Basketball. I don't know I can basically play whatever I want... I guess I'm lucky I'm physically capable to perform in those type of activities and perfomr good! It's just that Basketball is like a very complete sport to me. You run up and down a field just like soccer, you need as much coordination hand to eye as person to person as in any other team sport. Then theirs the whole multitasking part I like. Say I'm making the 1-2 step jump and in mid air I can't make the shot, I can still use the momentum to look around and pass the ball and all done in fraction of second before you hit the ground, then you have to think while dribbling the ball and looking around and calculation if theirs an opening to get in to and then planning a play with your teammate by just looking at each other or just nodding in a certain direction. Last my favorite thing are all the funny stuff that only happen on a court, all other sport are so serious at times, but form time to time some one will get ticked off and kick the ball or jump out of the court into the public stands or just basically ice skate through the court when theirs like dust or water on it... also cause I play so hard and long my Nike's sole have like detached themselves from the rest of shoe like 3 times now... I was playing very hard and when I was like by the 2nd quarter I was wondering why I was slipping so much when my right foot touched the ground and when I out of curiousity looked down I realized the friggin sole had fallen off.

Anywho, yeah I'm playing at some like-mulit courts (indoor soccer, basketball, volleyball, whatever else) near the airport. Besides the courts they are constructing apparently some like pools for some sort of recreation or if people want to go in to swim (I really don't know),and besides that they've constructed and finished a skatepark (which I have celpics of and will post later on). Apparently that place was like really ghetto, like up to two years ago, and from then they've started to invest and clean up the place more since they finally realized that when tourists come to the country, that's the first place they look at and it gives the country a bad first impressio.

The court, skatepark and future pools are next (very very very literally!) to a river. Don't worry! Its not a river surrounded by soil earth but it's a rock formation that surrounds the course of the river. What's wrong with that river is that it has a very public fame by being basically a dumpster to many neighbors of it, so when you cross the river by the small bridge on top of it... Man! IT STANKS!! Its weird because if your next to the river it doesn't stink, just when your on top of it... weird. Or atleast when the team plays, it doesn't even smell weird. Lucky us, I guess.

I can't say that the location where the courts are located are exactly safe yet, specially because from the courts up to where I walk to take my bus home (8 city blocks) is next to the river and if someone killed you there, nobody would even notice. It's kinda Silent Hill empty near the river , I would film it but I kinda think someone will try to jump me for the camera... just wait till I have some cash and get one of them celphones that also record video. When walking with a teammate, who leaves at a block from where I take my bus, we have look around from time to time cause since it's still not Winter around here, the river is basically dry so people who like to smoke crakc or glue like to go by the dryed up river shores to smoke that sh!t. When its Winter though, that river looks like a friggin controlled tsunami is going by 24/7, and the shores become the streets overlooking the river, hence getting rid of those people until Spring comes back again.

Well getting back to the topic at hand... my body still has to get the physical resistance I had back when I was traning on in a team during my high school years. Ok, you can have muscle and overall look good but you can't let your physical resistance down cause other wise you may look like The Hulk but you won't be able to run half a block before gasping like you're having some sort of chronic asma attack. Very important to do activities where your heart get excersice i.e. jogging, running, jump rope, jumping jakcs, soccer, basketball, baseball, basically sports although I don't know if golf counts as a physical activity . So that's what was happening to me, I have broad shoulder from doing pushups and stuff but after 15 minutes of playing basketball for the first time in some years I was gasping and getting those pains in your abdomen when you get enough oxygen into your system (I don't know the name in English, kinda like internal cramps or something).

Fast foward to the present, and now my physical ressitance is up, still not quite like before but it's getting there. These guys I'm playing with basically train like a team but are not yet a team, but since a week ago I think the coach now feels like he has a presentable team and a good startup formation and will present all of us as a an official team to the municipal building or whatever that building in hte centric part of that district is called. If we get that type of backup then that building will start giving some cash like to send us out of town for tournaments, etc.

To be honest, since this team isn't offically a team then we don't even have uniforms. Three nights ago, a guy a from a uniform making company called: TheFox came to show us the type of uniforms they make and that they make uniforms apparently for this country's national team and like some more collages. The coach wanted the uniforms from this manufacture because they use this nice cloth that allow you body to breathe more freely and it's not made from that other plastic like ones that he heard cause cancer or some other disease. Now immediatly I know I arrived to the right place to play basketball... THEFOX!!! Come on! Those who REALLY know me know why this makes me think their could be a God somewhere that actually likes me.

So even though my physical resistance is going up, man my butt and lower back keep hurting the next day I come from training. Must be that I'm still not used to jumping so much as before. For some reason, this coach want to enfisize speed and jump-agility. Which kinda underminds the part of creatign some physical strength and he doesn't really makes us do pushups or squats or belly presses. I guess those will have to go by my count.

Oh and about the homophobic part... well I'm not sure if it makes me homophobic but like I saw like two dudes get on the bus when I was going to train to the courts but and they were wearing basically like women cloathes. Not like dresses but like cargo tight women pants and jeans and like almost baby tees size shirts and even one of those head bands that girls use on their head to pull their hair back and reveals their forehead. Kinda like what Sakura Haruno uses. So when those dudes came on the bus... I was like weirded out... cause If I didn't know any better, and I was looking them from behind and from a bit affar a would have taught they were slim looking women.

So basically, is me getting weirded out by them make me a homophobe? As a modern citizen of the planet do I have to work to like when I see men dress like that to not get freaked out? Is it wrong for me to weirded out? I don't know, it's not like I hated those two dudes or disgusted by them... its just that it looked so weird and I felt weird because I usually don't see people like that everyday.

Well this blog went long enough... just wanted to make an update on my extracurricular non gaming activities. O, and also I'm gonna start blogging only on Gamespot, becuase blogging on Giant Bomb is dead. I like to talk to people who really like games but you find like those really really nerdy only gaming and nothing else happening in their lives type of people. I found people who like anime and thats cools but then again its like those very orthodox people who are only anime and anything anime specific and I'm afraid to talk about sports or tv or movies without getting labled something as stupid as noob.

Cheers!

Man i jsut learned that the ticket where being sold like just some weeks ago, but the organization didn't even tell anything or make it public.

Then yesterday, they were giving away the last 39 tickets btu because some understood that only 3 were being sold, they went in like to fight for the tickets, made a huge Ruckus and the representatives of the event where forced to leave with the remaning tickets and now because they had to even scolt out with the police that guy... they won't sell the rest of the tickets.

This sucks. I was waiting to meet my hero who had voiced Goku since I was a kid, plus see the bands, manga books, cosplay, etc... this is really really sad day.

I'll get on the whole laser tag later today, at least I'll have that to get me through. Theirs always next year I suppose. That was the lamest thing I 've written.

What is the good word my fellow web logggers.

Well, I'm glad to say that I went today to take my substitute test. Yup, as the consequence of my prior blog, and I passed the test. Not only that but this time it was my turn and I was the only one who passed the test.

OHOOO! HELL YEAH!!

Wow that was a surprise but not really. WAIT! I'm not being c.ocky, it's just that the test was like a very very very simplified version of an extra c.lasswork project we made during the course of this subject. So I was like reading very close the test like to try and see if their was nothing fishy or some trick behind it all cause it seemed so weird and too good to be true.

So I passed it and I'm very satisfied with the end result since I don't want to take that subject again when I already knew how to work it (Visual Basic.Net) and I didn't feel like doing it from the start.

Now thats behind us... it's time to come up with some vacations and enjoy them. I'm think to go and play laser tag with some c.lassmates fo rthe first time since like 6th grade when I was banned from Laser Quest for breaking one of their ghetto cardboard box "walls". Apparently, theirs a Laser Quest around here so I'll go try my luck there.

Who knows... I guess this would be my late brithday celebration, plus I just swifted easily into a vacations and I guess I can let my guard down meanwhile. Also... LASER TAG IS FRIGGIN AWSOME!! PLUS THEY HAVE ARCADES!!!

I'll have photos and post comments on it. Meanwhile, comment on blogs season is open. Semper Fi!

Man! I just came from my Visual Basic final exam. And wow I just got demoslished, bambozooled... what am I saying!? It was more like a r.ape! Well, it wasn't r.ape but you get what I'm saying.

I read the exam and it was all so easy... I had just done something very much like that test before the test as a drill test of my own. What happened is that they gave us an hour to do it and I swear to God, I didn't stop in that whole hour and man that thing went by like for 30 minutes for some reason.

Long story short... out of 15 students in my c.lass:

• 14 flunked the test
• 1 passed but only because he wrote on the PC the fastest... and even he didn't finish the exam.
• I knew as much as that guy knew and I didn't write that fast. I just needed more time

Man this is like the saddest grade I've ever gotten I feel like... like... I feel like crap. Now I have to go and take a Substitute Test to win over that last grade next Monday and pay like 10 bucks to do it or else I have to wait till I can take the subject on Sundays.

What's worse is that the teacher said I was copying... WTF!!! I was in front of you at a 10 inch (more or less) of distance. Where and how could I have done this? Literally he was sitting on the same desk but on the opposite side.

Can someone who has more then a year in college tell me if this is normal or is it just me?

P.S. By the way I have no time to do anything and I'm writing this blog liek at 10 minutes from arriving home and as quickly as possible. So I'm sorry if I'm commenting on blogs lately. I can't even read my email ye. That thing must be full.

See Ya.
