a quick thinga-ma-bob

err...that word came from....little mermaid? it was in one of the songs, but no idea if spelling is correct or not... *shrugs*

yes, joyce+tennis is odd combo, but so is joyce+basketball. but joyce has been doing basketball for one sem, and will be doing it this sem as well...lol...

Tennis is fun. I finally managed to hit some balls, but man, i can't serve for my life...sigh... it either went out, our it won't go over the net. psh... but we had volley practices today, it was pretty cool. all i need is some control in strength and ball direction. easier said than done. weiming, how in d hell did u master tennis? must be all the swimming muscles working. i've got nil muscles at the moment... should head to the gym, i say. psh, more work for myself.

Dancing is fun! I can see Jo's head nodding in agreement. LOL. I'm no expert, only been to 2 lessons, but am damn enthusiastic about it... can't wait to get my dancing shoes. the only downside is that it costs 7000yen! that's about 70usd... ex huh... but, well, for all things there are sacrifices... ^_-

and before i sign off (bed's calling me....jooyceee) i've been good to myself by only taking 10 classes this sem, compared to the 18th that i had last sem. (applause). LOL the reaction i get when i tell ppl about my classes... my parents are cool, marc's one happy guy... don't think i'll hear "you're overdoing it joyce" this sem... yeah!!

and on that note... i'll go sleeep...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

latest anime..oh-la-la!

April, is known as the new term over here. It does not just mean school, it means everything else too....work, new projects, tv programmes etc. Well, TV's slightly off but usually, esp for anime, they try to end them in march and start afresh in April.

So, what's new? hmm... I only know of 2 - Ichigo 100% and He is My Master. Originally a featured manga for guys. Ichigo 100%'s manga is still being published. Well, that's not the point. Wanna know the story? Sure you do...

Ichigo 100% is about a guy and 5 girls. A plain looking guy who for some obscure reason, has 5, yes FIVE hot high school girls falling for him and fighting for him. LOL... Definitely a guy's dream...

He is My Master is even...A young rich guy, prob 14-15, with his 2 maids (it'll become 3 later). He's fav thing to do? Make his maids wear costumes that he designed. In other words, cos-play. Sigh...as if Harajuku is not enough already!

These kind of anime is only possible in Japan, me thinks. What thinks you? You'ld agree with me, no doubt yeah!

cheers to my supporters...LOL

oh yeah, if you'Re wondering why i'm writing about them, well, i had nothing better to do....yeah right...yeah, serious!

Anyone interested in anime??? *lelong, lelong* I'll recommend....muahaha

yes, yes, going nutters. time for bed. laterzzzz

the weather and i

japan's gonna be a desert soon...

or so most of us felt since april. hot days + the occasional strong wind during the day, and cold winterish nights that just reminds you of the savana...not like i've been there before but, u get the picture. all we need now is sand and sand and some quicksand.

after that, comes a few days of cold winterish days and nights that rains non-stop. enough to put chills in ur bones and make u hibernate. what is wrong with spring??? grr....

and to top of the weirdness, joyce has started teaching chinese conversation, as a part time. yeah ppl, go buy toto, lotto, or whatever lottery that's near you. it's a private thingy, 9yr old kid, absolutely adorable. it's fun and good money. i need fun, fun and more fun this sem. time for partying and travelling!!!! (at least i hope so...psh..)

my first week

What a boring week...boring semester it will be....so i thought as i start my first week of 2nd year. geez, now that i've got most of my credits, i don'T need to take a lot of classes. it's a good thing, but heck, the classes that i wanna take seems to be at the worst hours, creating holes in my timetable...!! argh...... still fixing that problem at the moment. well, good news is that i've passed all my exams..yeah!!

so, what else have i been up too? slacking, would be the word of the week. as i cut classes out of my timetable, they are even days that i don'T need to go to uni!! good thing is that well, it's a hol of some sort, bad thing is that, it'S in the middle of the week, not a monday or friday....so no long weekends for me...boohoo!!

oh yeah, started to fansub yesterday. ??? u might think... Basically, i translate anime episodes from jap to eng, and together with the team, we hammer everything together to make a subtittled episode. people will download the finished episodes from the internet or through IRC. am discovering a new fun world out here. not like i'm getting paid or anything. it's fun, good jap practice, allows me to meet up with loads of ppl around d world who are anime lovers... amazing. currently doing translation check. fun fun fun!!

just one thing

classes start tomorrow. enuff said.
