ぶらん ちゃん

2 years...

Yesterday Tra and I made 2 years being together.  It doesn’t even feel that long… XP  Tra took 2 days off so we could do something special…and another excuse for him to sleep more than usual. hehe Well he’s been working 2 jobs 7 days a week for a month almost… He more then deserves this little vacation.  After he finished work, Tra wrapped up my gifts and headed straight over to my house.  He got so anxious for me to open up my gifts so I opened it a day early.  I got a brand new DSi and a micro SD 8GB card.  I was so suprised on what he’d gotten for me cause I wasn’t really expecting anything that big from him.  I felt kind of bad that I didn’t get to give him anything to open on our anniversary… (I gave him a new phone and Lacoste’ cologne earlier last month…lol)  We woke up a little late..around noonish… and I was starving.  We were craving for some breakfast food and Tra thought of a place to eat that I never ate at before and this place so happened to near by my house.  We ate over at Koa’s pancake house and that really hit the spot.  I was full for almost the whole day…I could of even skipped dinner. XD

We didn’t have anything planned on what to do so we decided to go freshwater fishing at Lake Wilson.  I had to get my Fresh-water license at sports authority before we went (which I think is so unnessecary for Hawaii to make such a baka thing >.<)  While I was waiting for Tra to get the fishing gear, I was playing with all the stuffs on the DSi.  It sort of reminds me of the wii/itouch with it having the menus set up in boxes and it having a “shop” to buy and download microgames, apps and stuffs.  I can’t wait til they have more things to dl!  Oh and it also has a internet browser which is so awesome…I knew about it when I first heard about it in Japan news but actually having it in my hands to experience the features just amazes me XD.  We headed over to the lake and went to our spot.  Our first hour wasn’t so good but after that we caught a lot of fish.  A couple of people came and fished near us and they got really jealous and left XP  We saw a gold carp swimming around in front of us.  I really wanted to catch it and keep it but it was just teased us >.<  Well even if i did catch it, I don’t know where I would put it because I don’t have a tank big enough for a fish like that… well anyways, here’s pics of our day.  Ja~ne.

Family outing

It was barely 9 in the morning and my mom dragged me out of bed cause she wanted to go swap meet.  As much as I didn’t want to go, I went along and it was so hot to walk around…It was 91 degrees outside…  XP  I think I may have gotten sun burn too *sigh* >.<  We didn’t get much stuffs cause Sundays at the swap meet is usually dead…So my mom wanted to check out Kmart to buy some clothes and a toy for Kenji.  While we was shopping around, enjoying the A/C after walking around in the blazing sun with no winds to cool us down, a lady gave us a raffle ticket for a chance to win free jewelry.  Once she handed my mom those tickets, I just had this feeling that we was going to win it.  We looked around for the raffle booth and waited for the 2 lucky winners to be announced.  My mom was the last winner and she picked out this bangle bracelet.  It looks kind of cute.  She’s so crazy with jewelry but she ended up giving it to me because “it didn’t match with the jewelry she already has now”. XP yeah…that was pretty much my day…haw it’s super hot here…well anyways…until next time…ja~ne

Gloomy days...

I got these cuties from a friend, Yoshi-kun for a “just cause” gift. lol  Arigatou Yoshi if you’re reading this XP lol  It’s so funny how he got me the Hello kitty x Gloomy bear charm cause I was just about to get one too.  I ended up putting it on my DS because I can’t put any charms on my phone…it’s “broken” at the moment… sigh, I got so much dorky stuffed animals and pillows that I don’t know where to put them. lol  I feel kinda bad though.  I should get Yoshi something in return later lol.  hm…oh yeah, Tra is coming back from his business trip from Maui.  Yatta!  It didn’t seem like he left Oahu to me though… I guess suikoden tierkreis took the day away from me or something… I can easily lose a day just by playing a video game cause I’d get so hooked onto the plot (if there is any). XP lol ugh…I’m getting hungry… I’m going to eat lunch now… Jya ne~

Karate-do Hawaii

Okay, I just added up all the 3 clips into one video so the post isn’t flooded with embedding vids >.<;  Some parts of the video is a little shakey because I was trying to get a good shot of the katas and at some points I moved just a little too much and it kinda looked messed up XP Anyways, here’s the vid…

The first clip (0:00-0:49) is Tra’s sensei and former JKA student, Stan.  His kata was Jitte, winning first place as always.  The second clip (0:50-2:03) is Tra doing Bassai dai.  The third clip (2:04-2:53) is Karate-do Hawaii’s team kata (Elton front, Kevin left, and Tra right).  They were doing Wankan.  I don’t know if it’s just me and my lack of knowledge with karate but I thought they should of at least gotten a higher score.  Well they tried their best, sensai was pround of them and that’s all that mattered.  Can’t wait to see what they’ll do in next year’s team kata XD

n00b...

bleh…I’m still trying to get the hang of this tumblr thingy >.<  I just figured a way out on how to add comments on here.  Well anyways, I just got home from Tra’s karate tournament (which I’ll be posting up later on tonight or tomorrow…) and I’m so exhausted… He did an individual kata and team kata with his karate buds.  They may have not earned a medal this year but I thought they all did a great job.  I treated Tra to lunch and we got some yogurt from Menchies (his choice of flavors and toppings) after the tournament.  Since I bought myself a smoothie from Jack in a box before we went to Menchies, I figured we share a cup. instead of having our own cups of yogurt XP  He got cheesecake chocolate and cake batter yogurt with sprinkles, coffee crunchies, cheesecake bits, fudge, and mochi bits as toppings.  He’s definitely a mix master naturally when it comes to sweet things like that hehe.

It was really crowded and had no seats inside so we ended up eating outside on the benches.  His ice cream was okay.  We both have our different tastes in sweets.  He love his extremely sweet chocos while I love fruity stuffs XP  I can’t wait til Menchies open up near by my house!  Their logo is so kawaii! and their flavors are all fat free and oishii! XD  Well I only had so much hours of sleep last night so I think I’ll join Tra’s little cat nap now… I’ll continue this entry when I wake up or something >.<;  So until then… Ja ne!~

Video games...

I didn’t do anything that’s “bloggable”  to write about but I’m bored so I’ll just ramble on about video games. XP  Well I had to return the game that Tra rented out for me at Blockbusters, Left 4 dead.  I know…that game is kind of old…but if you know me well, then you’ll know why I didn’t try out this game right away even though I love zombie games.  I don’t know exactly what game made me despise first person shooters but yeah…that was the only reason why I didn’t bother to try it.  Well… after hearing all the good ratings and how highly addictive this game could be, I just thought it couldn’t kill me to at least give it a try…and I’m glad that I listened to my instincts.  I found it to be very amusing even though the game lacked a storyline as to how the zombies appeared, how exactly did that all happen and just those 4 survived without getting infected, and what happened to the survivors after they got out of the mess.  It’s fun to just run around, going trigger happy on zombies, while listening to cheesy but yet funny quotes from the characters.  Well…that’s practically the whole game just to run around and shoot zombies but that’s what makes the game so good!  I think that’s part of the reason why Tra likes the game too.  He’s more of the “get to the gameplay and f*ck the cut-scenes! Let’s kill some shit!” kind of gamer. lol  Well…it would of been a little interesting if they put an animation or a bonus game to thicken the story or something so it wouldn’t be so “video game arcade-ish”.  But I’m guessing they’ll save that for part 2 (if they ever plan to make one).  It sort of reminded me of Resident evil outbreak (minus the annoyance of the uncooperative characters) and umbrella chronicles or house of the dead put into one.  I really need to get my live back onto gold again so I can play as an infected >.<  Ah well… I guess I should end this because I’m getting tired and I want to continue playing suikoden tierkreis.  Ja ne~

New phone...

This is the phone I bought my bf, Tra for our 2nd year anniversary.  His old phone was literally falling apart for some time now so I thought it would be a perfect time to suprise him with a new phone.  I’ve been recapping on all the things he’s been complaining about his previous phones and remembering things he said he wanted for a phone.  So I browsed around AT&T to see what would be a perfect phone for him.  The Pantech matrix really caught my eye for some reason and it looked really easy for him to text with the qwerty buttons (he llikes his texting lol). Since he likes his things simple, I had a feeling he’d have difficulty getting used to such a techy device but from his expression on his face, he looked happy and was excited to have a new toy in his hands ^.^  I added some ringtones of some of his recent classic favorite songs and put a krauser II (Detroit metal city) wallpaper for now until he decides what he really wants to put on it.  Bleh, the pic is really blurry because i took the pic in a dark room and i was rushing cause I was tired >.<;;
