i was just bored. there has been countless of times i go out at night and can't help wishing i could capture the moment right there and then. inevitably nightfall is the favourite time of the day for many people, just like how some prefer a rainy day over a sunny one.
i don't know about you guys, but i think the concept goes along the line of what we coin "romance". "sentimental", "provocating", "lovely", whatever you call it. things like that just draw on the softer side in us, don't they?
i decided to come up with what i thought would make romantic (:
Ten Romantic Elements 1.Almost complete darkness, preferably in nighttime 2.Lights in appropriately small amounts, intensity and locations. 3.Rain, preferably the heavy kind instead of the drizzly kind. 4.Privacy.. apparently when i say this i don't mean you should be ALL ALONE, of course. What will you do, kiss yourself? Oops! Haha.. 5. Optional: Music of appropriate genre. If things like Chinese New Year songs can make you tear and feel romantic too, well whatever makes you happy. 7. Temperature.. Oh YES its important. For me the ideal temperature range would be 20 to 30 degrees celcius. (: no i'm not weird. (: 8.The Relationship. Things will never get romantic even if you have all of the above if you are in company of your two year old sister. 9. The Mood. You can't be focussing your thoughts on the Iraq war or tomorrow's Chess competition. 10. Awareness. I like people who are situationally aware. You need to know that you are IN A ROMANTIC SITUATION. x)
Ten Romantic Places (i think) [the unifying criteria is that all must be at night time] 1. A beach. 2. A jetty 3. A sports stadium stadium 4. A basketball court 5. A school (deserted) 6. A Car 7. Driving on a looong deserted lighted road 8. A swimming pool 9. The wilderness (not too dirty or infested with bugs) 10. Top floor of some building
hmm, although many of the places i have just listed coincidentally seem to be ideal spots to do all the dirty stuff that men want to do, i assure you romance is not about this. To prove my point, i made this list.
Ten Places In Which You Can Get Excited And Do Obscene Things But Are Not Romantic 1. A bedroom 2. A hotel 3. Your boss's office 4. A classroom (even though a school is romantic, i mean the surroundings and not the classroom) 5. HDB Staircase 6. A park 7. Pub 8. A cinema 9. HDB Void deck 10. Dark alleys
... See. Don't mix up settings of your sick fantasies with the next place your girlfriend would like her birthday to spent at.
i repeat, i was just bored. (: Here's another comic from CAD.
in jest; [8:38 PM]
it doesnt pay to be nice to MY brother, i tell you, it doesnt.
-gives dark look-
i can't count the number of times i've played with him out of goodwill, and ended up with him running to my mum in tears complaining about how i hurt his finger or toenail, or bought him something he asked for and instead of getting thanks in reply, find out that he gave it away or lost it the next day.
kids, can never understand them.
two days ago i brought him to the library and lent him my card for borrowing. then i brought him to Mos Burger, a fast food restaurant he had now seen that is not Macdonalds or KFC, and gave him a treat. He loved it, come on. Then i brought the brat round Causeway Point shopping, and then to Comics Connection whereby i got him the $7.50 Pokemon comic book that he wanted.
this afternoon i came out of the room to find that Dad had bought him this Pokemon Sticker Book in which there are slots for every pokemon sticker you are supposed to collect.
"Your brother said you didn't buy this for him," Dad said
"But i didn't even SEE that thing!" i protested
"Said it's too expensive or something," he continued.
"He never TOLD me he wanted it!" i almost yelled.
Ass. It almost seemed as if he asked for the sticker book but i didn't have enough money so i got him the comic book instead. But my parents knew i kinda had a lot of money with me, so it's even worse -- they'd think i didnt WANT to spend so much on my brother. The kid's guts!
"He's just using it as an excuse for you to buy it for him!" i talked to my father's retreating back view.
When he was out of sight, i turned back on my brother, who was trying his best to avoid my glare, and narrowed my eyes. As i sat down for breakfast, i spoke in the most normal tone i could manage.
"I'm never taking you out or buying you stuff again," and then i muttered "Asshole."
He feigned indifference, but that was fine with me. I finished my food as fast as i could and walked away from the dining table, thinking: "He's unbelieveable!"
Of course in my heart i knew i could never mean that statement i said -- i was just trying to make him feel bad for what he did, like i always do. I never know if he does, i just want to let him know what he did was wrong... There are still so many places with good food and stuff that i wanna bring him to!
Sigh, what can i say. I love and hate this brat with equal fervour.
in jest; [2:10 PM]
to those who may be familiar with Windows Visual Styles and Shells etc, i may seem damn stupid, but i just wanna announce that i finally got my FIRST visual style theme! x)
x) x)
-hyperventilates-
mwahaha. its not the prettiest, and it's not as wonderful as Shell themes, but hey its something!
For those who's going "what the devil are you talking about?", these stuff are just things that you install onto your comp to give it a whole new look. (: its not just about changing desktop icons or window colours, although it includes all that. if you spend practically your whole life on your computer, you'll find that its good to change desktop themes once in a while.
haha, anyway i'm soo going to register style XP. its expensive for its function, but ok for a program. maybe when i'm really sure, i'll get the builder too. x)
ok enough with my gibberish. now how bout something everyone (should) understands?
new comic source! check out their homepage at Ctrl+Alt+Del! Gamers' comics, i call 'em!
that strip was from January. you can go read up, but probably i'll still post one or two strips i like ^^
i wanted to blog about Myriad but i'm tired. =.= oops. tomorrow then. To end off, i would like to announce my latest obsession. After Deathnote. (:
BLEACH!
ok, i now its a tad late, my reaction to this totally awesome manga series(and i say this even though i've read only book 1!).. but still better late then never soo.. i only have the first book now, but you'll see it won't be long BEFORE I (and there she goes again) get every single book in the Bleach manga series, watch the whole anime that is already in my bro's comp, and eventually DOMINATE THE WHOLE WORLD! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. (=_____="") -ignores any weird face you are making- x) bleach! lol.
