Want to Go Swimming!

Yes...even though i do not have the skills to stay afloat in the water, i would like to spend some time in the pool or at the beach next month. April is the month on which we celebrate the holy week and also, we use this opportunity to spend some time to relax ourselves.

Of course, when i go to the beach to swim...i make sure that the water will not go above my head. Water that exceeds my head is scary and i don't want that to happen...definitely not going to happen.

Aside from that, my neighbors are planning to go on a little challenge (let us call it a very long walkathon that exceeds at least 6 kilometers). We do this to visit the church that is called "Grotto". It can be very crowded during this time of year and calling it a sardine pack occasion is not an exaggeration.

Now, that leads me to the ultimate question...will i be able to experience this two events? I hope so...i really do =)

Now, this month has been a little hard on me because my sleep problem is still making things difficult for me. Although my body is getting used to it, it can be very frustrating at times. Anyways, i hope you guys had a wonderful month and i pray that April will not make a fool of us all =)

Till next time...

The Real and the Fake

Once again i experienced another sleepless weekend and as usual, my head and muscles are aching. It would be nice if i can get some rest tonight and that is something that i am looking forward too (if I'm lucky).

This week has been hot ~_~ really hot. Maybe, that is one of the reasons why i am having a hard time in getting my shut eye. Well, in today's post i am going to impart to you the summary of "NiseMonogatari" or better known as "Fake Story".

The final episode has already been posted and it left me between "wanting more and wanting more". *Heh* It never hit me that this sequel would be this short. I was hoping that it would have run for at least 14-15 episodes before the curtains are closed. Maybe it is for the better because i can't seem to get enough of "Platinum Disco" and "Marshmallow Justice" in my head.

I already said in my previous post that Nisemonogatari requires a lot of patience and understanding. You can even say that "it is not for everybody". This series will confuse you and will make you think that "is this even worth watching?". Well I can understand why you would think that way and in truth, that is what i felt when i first watched Bakemonogatari.

But Hey, i am a Bakemonogatari fan so i sucked it up and watched it until the end. The story revolved around the Araragi sisters or better known as the "Fire Sisters". Araragi Koyomi has not always been in good terms with her younger sisters and in Nisemonogatari, their complex relationship was viewed in full.

Karen Araragi the Eldest among his sisters has a thing for "Justice". It means that she will try to face off with anyone especially if she thinks that he/she is a bad guy. Well, unfortunately for her...the bad guy that she went after was a professional "con man" and he taught her a thing or two about dealing with the likes of them.

Koyomi Onichan came to the rescue and tried his best to fix the problem. The problem was resolved after a chat with the so called conman "Kaiki" and things went back to normal...or so he thought.

As Kaiki exits the scene, a new specialist entered the scene and her target was Koyomi's younger sister Tsukihi Araragi. The reason? Because Tsukihi Araragi is not human. She is an immortal Phoenix bird...nah a cuckoo to be precise and Kagenui Yozoru and Ononoki Yotsugi wants to exterminate her.




Of course, Koyomi onichan will not just stand by and let her precious little sister be exterminated so he fought against this duo with the help of Shinobu. Well, Shinobu is his vampire partner and together they manage to convince them to look the other way.

P.S I hate youtube...they took down the video of Platinum Disco *sob*

Well, it was really short but i enjoyed Nisemonogatari despite having to constantly pump a lot of fluid in my brain to digest the story. Watch at your own volition and i wish all of you a great weekend.



till then...

Things that Make you Smile

Sometimes, as we go about on our day to day things we often meet people along the way who makes us remember a few things in life. My high school friends and i are very close. They often hang out here in our house from time to time when they have nothing else to do.

Yesterday, i met one of them while i was doing my usual walk routine. Russel who i had known for almost 12 years already called out to me, when he saw me pass by. Seeing him immediately made me smile and we talked for a bit as well. After our little chitchat we parted ways once again but i know that he is going to drop by, here on my house one of these days.

When you meet someone that you had been with for a time, may it be a colleague from your previous work, a friend or an acquaintance...it makes you say the phrase "Small World". It means that, no matter how big this world is...there will always be an opportunity to meet up again, somewhere along the way.

And you know what? It really feels nice, especially if that someone is quite close to you. There are people whom i really like to bump along the way for some reason and i do hope that i get that opportunity. Just to talk to them and ask them how life has been, for the time that we haven't seen each other.

*Sighs* Now i am remembering my high school days and i just can't help but smile once again. Our little group of boys had been doing all sort of things from dancing, singing, partying, swimming and uhh...chasing after girls? >__> well only them, that was not really one of my hobbies.

Well, till next time...
