Comiket 76


Well yeah, I know this event is in Japan and the odd and chances of me being there is absolutely zero but thought I would just post what I'm expecting from Comiket this time around....

As the name implies (which is short for Comic Market) you'd think they would just be selling comics over there but if you think that you'd be wrong. Sure the majority of the things selling over there would still probably be dōjin comics, as well as other dōjin products related to anime (note: dōjin just means fanmade/unofficial products which are made by "circles") but of course my main interest is the dōjin music, specifically J-Core. Here is the list of the albums that are on my wishlist:


[TANOCD-0010] HARDCORE TANO*C – Hardcore Syndrome 3
What can be arguably said the album that is on everyone's mind in the J-Core scene. All the best J-Core artists with their different styles combined into one mind blowing album, its just a recipe for total epicness!!! With the previous 2 "Hardcore Syndrome" anything to go by, this is just gonna be as good (if not better) than what the last one had to offer.


[MPTCD009] MPT – BASTARD POP TERRORISTS VOL.9
Another "V.A." compilation album, full of J-Core songs that are top notch. Not as good a lineup as TANO*C but none the less with names such as M-Project, DJ Sharpnel, DJ Aura Qualic, M-Neko as well as several others in the album, it is something to look forward to. Especially when there is Aura Qualic!!!! =D


[SRPC-0024] DJ Sharpnel - 妄殺オタクティクス
Don't think I have to say much about why I love DJ Sharpnel. After hearing DJ Sharpnel played his set on Otaku Hardcore Revolution 2 I'm just completely sold over why he is considered on of the best in the J-Core scene. Wish I had the time to listen to more of his songs on my computer....


[DARKCD-0007] Druggy's Acid RacK - Pain Continues
Another J-Core compilation album, with probably even less known artists as the first two mentioned above. But of course with kenta-v.ez. and t+pazolite in it I just got to have this album, bringing their nu-style sound to a whole another level. Of course the other artists in the album is worth having a listen to as well, certainly something a little different from the more mainstream J-Core sound that is usually being played.


[MSTBL014] Mob Squad Tokyo – J-CORE MASTERZ VOL.5
Again, same s*** with J-Core and all but this time its more on the Mob Squad Tokyo crew. Only thing I'm looking forward to in this album (like almost every other MST albums lol) is Round Wave Crusher (a.k.a. Shingo DJ) hahahahaha.....


[ACED-018] ALiCE'S EMOTiON – Colors
J-Core with Touhou mixed in. Like almost every other Touhou music arrangement albums you'd think it would just suck right? Well yeah, I guess it kinda sucked but since its REDALiCE it probably wouldn't be all that bad. There is always one or two tracks that I would get addicted to right away and have a hard time stop listening to it. (which does happen quite often to me)


[IBCD-0009] Sound Online - Nostalgia
and lastly this. Something similar in a way to ALiCE'S EMOTiON album (being a Touhou arrangement album) I don't think I have to say much about the album. With that said though listening to a Tsukasa composed song is pretty good....

Well yeah that is all I have to list down right now, would have like to added more to the list but that would take up so much time. Also I know there is also many other things I would like to cover that is coming up at Comiket (like the comics and figurines) but I don't think I have much interest (or the money for that matter) to talk about them. Unlike music which is easier to find and get (if you know where to look) I have a very little chance of obtaining those other stuff here. If you guys want to know more about the other albums being released at Comiket or just want to know Comiket in general, just check out the link below.

Twitter


Well I can't help but join Twitter today, was a little surprise that it took me this long to create a Twitter account, considering what other social sites I have been using lol. To be honest I actually thought what was the big fuss about this Twitter thing and all, and thought it seems just like the Facebook/Myspace or whatever other social networking sites have called "feed" updates where you just type your status and stuff....

But after seeing how many of my favorite sites are now doing their feeds using Twitter I can see why it is popular and how the Twitter feeds are different from the other sites, because that is what Twitter is meant to do! Of course it doesn't necessarily have to be used as that, Twitter can be used for quick messages to friends who use Twitter as well which is kinda neat. =)

Anyway, for anyone who wants to follow me on Twitter:

How to Ignore and Be Ignored

Hahaha, was the first thing I found on Google when I was searching for the exact phrase. Just posting this cause its so undeniable funny and true, and also just to post something to fill my blog..... =)

Sometimes you just want to be left alone. Some people make you wish you could be invisible--whether it is the nosy woman behind you in the check out line, an ex, your mother, or the creepy guy who stops you in the hall everyday at work. If you get the urge to ignore people, follow these steps.

Steps
  1. Use technology. A cell phone, MP3 player, and PDA are wonderful gadgets for helping us look busy and keep us blocked off from the people around us. Any time you want to ignore people, just pick up one of your trusty gadgets and tune them out.
  2. Look down. In the street, hallway or office if you don't hear someone calling your name you can't offend them by not answering. Walk around as though you have some major business to attend to at all times, and if you are ever accused of ignoring someone just say "Sorry I didn't hear you."
  3. Turn away. Really pesky people that won't take your silence as a reason to stop talking need to be ignored. Just turn your head and act like you are enthralled in the graffiti on the building next to you. If turning away doesn't solve the problem, then walk away. Catch another bus or train to your destination and free yourself of annoyances.
  4. Use body language. Crossed arms and legs are a clear sign that you are not open for conversation. Scowl at anyone who tries to sit near you and never smile. Giving the signs that you are not welcoming any attention will help you ignore people.
  5. Be a snob. Simply turn a blind eye to all that goes on around you. This will allow you to ignore the people in your general vicinity, but also the entire world. Don't watch television, don't listen to the radio and ignore to your hearts content.
Warnings
  • You may eventually be totally isolated, so be prepared and make sure your situation is only temporary. Don't ignore the world forever!
  • This can also hurt people so make sure you have a good reason, other wise you could make good friends with whoever and never know it!


From wikiHow

My New PSU

Forgot to post this yesterday so here it is:


Well what is the major difference between this and the old one? For one, its brand spanking new of course! But other than that, it is less powerful than my older one (450W compared to 480W) which should make it last longer and uses less power. Also this one has 2 PSU fans compared to my old one, making it easier to extract the hot air from my PC. Now compare that with my old PSU...


Meh, just forget about it. I know I should have taken more pictures (or at least some description on the PSU) but I didn't bother. As for how the old PSU failed, well I don't know what to say about it really. Think the whole PSU got stuffed with dust and the thing just died on me. Tried to on the PC but it just wouldn't turn the damn f***king PC on!!!!

Now I have another problem with the computer, my rear cooling fan failed. Think the bearing got loose and broke itself, causing an extremely loud and annoying sound every time I use the computer. So what I did was just disable the rear cooling fan and just use the front cooling fan and the PSU fan (which does come in handy). But yeah, can't run my PC like that forever and have replace the fan once I can find some time to actually go out..... =_=

2 Minor Glitches

Well not to say it is any sort of computer or system glitch or anything (well maybe it is, I don't know...) but thought the title seems kinda fitting with the situation. Anyway, here is just a quick update about what happened to me in the past week or so...

Just a day after I went to the PC Fair and got my things, my PC power supply unit failed on me (more on that on another post) which means that I was lagging behind my downloads once again. The biggest news however (and probably the most unfortunate that happened to me so far this year) was that I fell sick on Thrusday. Well what sickness is it you asked? I really cannot explain it myself, saying that I was infected with H1N1 would've been kinda extreme, but I think it was just a normal flu, along with a sore throat, coughing, headache and a lost of appetite. Not sure how the hell I got sick at such an awkward moment, because the very next day I had an exam at college and even then I had to force myself to take the exam. If I didn't it would be considered as a fail, and I had to repeat the course again. So I did the exam anyhow and even when I was sneezing and coughing like s***, I managed to finish and complete the exam. Sure I did finish it late and not very sure how well I did the exam, but considering how I was at that time the most important thing for me to do was to get back home as soon as possible and get some good rest. That also meant that my weekend has been completely ruined and I cannot go anywhere and just stay home and recover. Would have been ever worse (and boring) if my PC was still not fixed, but yeah I'm thankful for that! =D

My recent purchase


Didn't but anything much today, just some stuff that are kinda pointless lol. The Avira Antivirus 2009 Premium Edition, a MP3 car radio player, a aux cable, and a 2GB DDR2 RAM for my PC.

Unfortunately though, I don't have enough money to buy the laptop. My father just said he had too many things to settle right now, so I guess the dream of having a HP TouchSmart tx2. *facepalm* Sometimes I just wonder why the f*** I never ever bothered to get a job, especially since I don't have any money whatsoever....
