Bottom of the Rollercoaster

You know that moment when you ride a rollercoaster and then it dips down, causing you to feel quezee? Yeah, suddenly got sick recently, last Friday to be exact. Must be the haze. Starting to feel better now but not well enough to go out for long periods.

At any rate...

I wonder if I took enough photos the other day.

Oh yeah, you know that feeling when you're doing the same report as the previous semester seniors but you have to do more work for it this semester? The disparity is very obvious this time around. And we get only 1 week to do it. Gee, thanks. *le rant*

Until the next post.

Blaster Line for Gold Paladin (Random Idea)

I'm quite fond of "Blaster Blade" from Royal Paladin and "Blaster Dark" from Shadow Paladin as far as I'm playing Cardfight!! Vanguard leading me to have both Royal and Shadow Paladin decks. Their main skill is to retire one of your opponent's rear guards upon Ride/Call makes it quite strategic to use.

Recently Bushiroad has released two new clans - Gold Paladin and Narukami. Gold Paladin is more to power and cance superior calls (from the top of your deck) while Narukami is similar to Kagero (though not as dangerous, yet) and power focused as well. Narukami seems to be doing better than Gold Paladin so far. Thus, random shenanigans come to mind because I want some unut retiring fun with Gold Paladins as well - though a pipe dream it may be. Doesn't stop me from sketching out my thoughts anyway.

Nintendo 3DS Video Recording Tests

Did these yesterday and earlier today. Nothing much but if you're curious, check out the video descriptions or drop off a comment down below.

Notes
Camera Sensor: 0.3MP, 640x480 maximum
Video Resolution: 480x240
Dual camera setup for 3D capture creates and offset when taking photos or videos and we cannot see the 3D image nor the "second overlay" outside the 3DS. Videos are recorded in an AVI format, interesting enough.

Now, my last paper is coming up in an hour plus... Final Turn! =P

"There's an Alien on my Blog!"

UNDENIABLE TRUTH! So that's why! *sudden realization*

*coughs* Back to work.

Xbox Lite

This is what happens when you're bored and misses an unportable gaming system.

PS: Christmas is tomorrow! If I can't wish it properly tomorrow then I'll say it now.

Merry Christmas!

EDIT:

Also got this just now from Hobby Kingdom at Star City KK, Sabah for a reasonable price. You can already see the Robot Damashii 00 Qan[T] quick review HERE.

Minor Note

I might/will post some short quick posts from time to time on my secondary blog if anything comes to mind. I like to call this an "offloading" process since I tend to think too much whenever I study and whenever there is an exam nearby. Nonetheless, I'll still be in a hiatus for now although I can't really call it a real hiatus. ^^;

*back to study*

One Does Not Admit the Mistakes of One's Youth

Okay guys, since I'm feeling like it today, I'm going to share something I did around 5-6 years ago which still exist within the histories of the internet. It may be funny, crazy or totally WTF. Nonetheless, enjoy my past creations. XD

Note: You may need to click open the image to read some of them.

Semester Break is ON! :D

So, it's that time again where... semester break is on! :D

After a week of finals (brain cramping and all), it's time to kick back, relax and do as much stuff you want before the next semester begins. ^^
The break actually begun on Friday afternoon but well, games. XD I'm currently playing through the Metal Gear Solid series, well, planning to (except MGS4 since I don't have a PS3). XP

Other than that, I built the God Gundam already and truthfully, I feel a bit disappointed. I'll disclose exactly why in an upcoming post unless gaming eats my soul away for a while. >.>

GOD FINGER!!!

Here's a simple (could be difficult from the dark photo) question; I made a mistake when building the God Gundam, can you spot what area did I make a mistake in (you may guess if you think it is not something easily visible)?

Besides that, I finally sent in my entries for Z'a 4koma contest. Here is an omake for one of the 4komas I've sent. Note: Not exactly the same as the 4koma I sent.


That's all for now. 'till the next post, which I think you all would know what it'll be about. XP

Random Gunpla Shots - Momotoys

While I was trying to do something (unfortunately I wasn't able to), I lepak over at Momotoys for a while before going back. Talked to the people there for a while and watched something totally hilarious. Good way to release some tension I guess since I'm feeling quite a lot lately thanks to the higher load of schoolwork due to exams coming up and assignments need to be done ASAP (almost done so its not so bad, assignment-wise).

Anyways, enough babbling repeating words, here are some shots of the Gunpla which are displayed at Momotoys which I played around with a little yesterday evening. XD

HGUC 1/144 Advance Hazel

Dunno who did this one but its quite well done. It has a very nice matt finish and I just touched and posed it a little. Those who frequently go to Momotoys would've seen this one for quite a long while already. Really love that hangar base. =D

SD Strike Gundam S.W.S.

Just touch touch this one a bit. Quite impressed with the articulation of this rather old kit (Elbows can bend, feet can bend and shoulders can go up and down!). Makes me want to get that Strike + Force Impulse set even more now. XP
Its a bit loose but that's probably due to old age. FYI, this isn't mine either.

SD Wing Gundam Zero Custom

Relatively old kit and its VERY loose already. Seems like it lost one wing and didn't bring along its trademark TBR. Nonetheless, I changed its pose to a punching (?) pose!

Okay, randomness there again. I was just playing around (with permission to touch of course) while continuing to mess around with my new camera.

Until the next post~

Filler Post - Capture My (Current) Collection!

Since I got me that new camera - Cannon IXUS 105 - I decided to take some shots (capture) my current collection in the cupboard. I am really impressed by this camera at how even Auto Mode meets my necessities without fail. However, I still prefer to use Program Mode (manual mode) so that I have better control over my shots. I still leave the ISO and WB on auto though since I don't want to spend too much time adjusting those for every snap.

Thanks to the image stabilizer, my shots are much more stable than ever. I barely need to delete much or any shots as most of them came out nicely. Really a good thing as I don't need to fuss much when taking any kind of shots now. My family photos and real life photos are coming in much better and my ninja photo taking skill seems to increase further thanks to the faster photo taking speed this new camera has. >D

Okay, enough babbling, here are some shots I took late at night with the new camera. Some uses the flash of the camera but I notice the flash works pretty well, in most cases at least.

FYI, I'm putting up this random post since the SD Unicorn review is much longer than I had anticipated. Especially with the comic strip I had in mind. I'll probably do it by Friday night and you should expect that to be up at my Wordpress blog since I feel like I DO need the pages function.
