Hello. I was out for half of today, then I had to rush back home. I've been going out for almost everyday this week, so I'm pretty much broke. There, that previous sentence is something I don't say too often, so appreciate the fact that you've just witnessed a once in a blue moon occurrence.Anyway. I woke up before 8am today, which is like the earliest I have ever woken up since I can't remember when. I went to Say Yin's house and I watched him play DotA for a while, then we left for Hwa Chong JC.
We met Yan Ming there, then we met Ethel, and Sebastian after that. We walked up a hill to get to the basketball court. We met Zi Keng there and we played basketball for a while. I only played one match, then I went to slack in the canteen because I was already sun burnt enough from yesterday's outing.
After playing, we went to the SIM buliding and Say Yin and Zi Keng ate their lunch, then we went out of the school. Zi Keng went home but then his home is the school so he can never actually go home or go to school. Oh, lol, I am so funny.
We went to City Hall and we ate Burger King there, then we went to HMV to look at the Skullcandy headphones. I need to get one for Yan Ming for his birthday. After that I went back home and I had to deal with some family stuff.
After all that I played Burnout Paradise for two hours, then I started using my computer. Say Yin, Sebastian and I have been discussing about this issue since yesterday, but now I think I have finally arrived at a conclusion. Check this out:
We were at the East Coast McDonalds slacking, and Say Yin was playing Final Fantasy Dissidia on Sebastian's PSP. There was this cut scene that consisted of all the main heroes of the series, and we were watching it. We realised that it was difficult to tell the gender of the characters that we didn't know, and most of the male characters had feminine features.
So it began.
The quest to find out why men look so much like women nowadays. First of all, look at these two pictures:
Man of the past.
Present day man.
At this point I think we can all agree that men look much less manly nowadays. I can explain a whole lot of things and come to my conclusion, but since I'm too lazy to do that, I'll just give you a summarized version.
Basically, men are becoming more like woman nowadays. They wear hairbands, they wear razor back singlets, they carry around bags that look like handbags, they dislike hair on their legs, arms, etc. Men in this category include most, if not all Asian male pop singers, a growing percentage of Asian men, transvestites and gays.
But it is this kind of man that many women find hard to resist. People have always been wondering why this is so, and I have an explanation to that. Woman are simply becoming lesbians. They adore a man who look so much like a woman that if a real woman stood beside him she would be mistaken for a man.
So eventually what is going to happen is that in a thousand years time, men will all evolve into women and women will all evolve into men. It is only then that the balance of sexuality will reset and everything will be back to normal. Until then, we will just have to deal with this insanity.
Ok, now that I'm done with that, here's a picture just for shits and giggles:
How ****ing gay can you get? He is rubbing his dick against a pole he is thinking of that two shiny balls in the background as he does his thing. Wow.The new Naruto and Bleach chapters are out now. As usual, Naruto was awesome, while Bleach was not so, although Bleach is getting better.
This week's Naruto chapter is awesome. It shows us two more new attacks that Naruto has, one of which is the attack he used to cut an entire forest in half while he was training. Now Naruto has found a way to use Rasen Shuriken.
In the past, he was forbidden from using that technique because it would destroy his arm in the long run, but now he has managed to counter that. Basically, he throws the Rasen Shuriken towards the enemy, and once it is within range, he expands it, making it a giant swirling disc that cuts anything it touches.
Naruto can now also use two Rasengans at the same time, one on each hand. Whether he still needs to use a Shadow Clone to form the Rasengan is still unknown, but since he has mastered the Sage techniques, he is probably around Sannin level, like Jiraiya and Tusnade. Since Jiraiya could form a Rasengan by himself using just one hand, I don't see why Naruto shouldn't be able to do that.
Here are some pages from this week's chapter [Click to enlarge]:
Rasen Shuriken is back :D awesome!!
So now it can be thrown.
Even if the enemy tries to dodge it...
...Naruto can still expand it.
Double Rasengan FTW.This week's Bleach is still on Ichigo and Ulquiorra's fight. Ulquiorra is surprisingly chatty in this week's chapter. Wonder if that means he is really becoming more of a human. There are two bitches whose names I can't remember who are trying to kill Orihime, then Yammi appears after being gone for so long. He is the only Espada above number 4 that is still in battle ready condition.
Here are some pages from this week's chapter [Click to enlarge]:
Whoa Ichigo just completely denied Ulquiorra. Ulquiorra is talking and stuff, and Ichigo is just like "Shut up."
New attack that gives Ichigo more powerful sword strikes.
Orihime is getting raped by the other girl. Nice.
Whoa now Ulquiorra not only talks more, he also taunts? "Make me?" doesn't very Ulquiorra-like to me.
Yammi may look huge and tough and menacing, but trust me, he sucks ass.There's has been a whole lot of cool videos being uploaded onto gametrailers.com over the course of the past few days, so I decided to embed two of the nicer ones. Enjoy:
Street Fighter IV Story Trailer
Gametrailers Countdown: Top 10 Most Anticipated Games 2009
Some news:
-I Am Alive was announced to be released in March 2009, but then it was announced that it won't be released until the period between April 2009 to March 2010. I didn't believe the initial release date though, because there has been no gameplay videos and trailers of the game yet.

-Aaron Greenberg, the guy who is in charge of the Xbox 360, has retaliated to Sony COE Kaz Hirai's comment on the Xbox 360 "lacking longevity" and the PS3 outselling the Xbox 360 by the end of this generation. Greenberg told the press "I can't imagine any scenario where the PS3 can catch up with us. In fact, even if you doubled the current PS3 sales and Xbox 360 remained flat, they couldn't close the gap until 2014."
-Genuine images of a fan made replica of the portal gun [from the game Portal :D] has surfaced on the Internet. It looks sweet. Picture below:

-It is rumoured that Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games will be redone so that it will be snowing, then it will be sold under the same title, except that the word Winter will be added in front of Olympics. Wow, just amazing.

-Four new Spore titles coming to the DS, Wii and PC this year.
-Silent Hill and Dance Dance Revolution is now available on the iPhone.
-F.E.A.R 2 demo is now up on Xbox Live, Playstation Network and PC. Download and try it, it is pretty cool.

The titles include games like a new Ghost Recon game, Splinter Cell Conviction, Red Steel 2, Beyond Good and Evil 2 and...Assassin's Creed 2. That's right. Assassin's Creed 2 is officially in the works, and it will be coming to us within the next year or so. Hell yeah.
-Grand Theft Auto IV Xbox 360 exclusive expansion pack "The Lost and Damned" will be released on Xbox Live on the 17th of February 2009 for 1600
[S$33].-Megaman Star Force 3 will be coming to the DS this summer.
-A new game mode, titled "Bomb Mission", will be landing on Metal Gear Online soon.
-Just when everyone thought that the Pokemon franchise was going to die off after Pokemon Platinum, Nintendo filed in the patents for 11 new Pokemon games, and a possible two more generations [500 more of them!!] of Pokemon. Here's the list of upcoming Pokemon games:
- Pokemon Red [Remake]

-EA games is selling an "Unlock Everything" key, which costs US$5, for Skate 2. It does just what it's title says, it unlocks everything. From skateboards to clothes to locations. But these aren't new content; the key just unlocks things you can get by completing the game. So what you are doing is paying US$5 for a cheat code. It just blows my mind how these kind of things even manage to exist.
-Battlefield Heroes online beta was cancelled a while back, but it is back, and you can sign up for it now if you wish to take part in it.
Ok, I'm going to watch some movie now. Probably Jackass number 2 or something similarly full of twisted humour. Ok, ending off, see you tomorrow.
