To people I was not able to text,
It was Globe's fault. I tried all day to go unlimited but they refused to let me. They would not let me send the damned unlitext SMS. Here is my late greeting: HAPPY NEW YEAR! I hope you all had a fabulous eve welcoming 2008, meaning so blissfully drunk you could not tell the difference between fireworks and colorful "torotots".
Cheers!
And what did I do while consuming copious amounts of cupcakes and wine?
I did not believe anarchy could ensue as a result of pudding shortage... until I watched My Boss, My Hero. The series cracked me up. I loved the main character, Sakaki Makio, a 27-year-old yakuza leader who was forced to finish high school to inherit the family business. The face he used to threaten teachers not to call him in class looked like that of a monkey being possessed by six demons. These lines by Sakaki made me laugh:
Don't look down on limited sale puddings! (yelling at Kazuya, a subordinate who underestimated the taste of limited sale banana Agnes pudding)
Is this... the dark side? (asking Hoshino-san while playing with slot machines,eating popsicles outside a manga store, and picking up chicks in the park)
Don't look at me with eyes like that of a dead fish - (while talking to a dead fish in cooking class)
Ag, Ag, Agnes! (while doing the Agnes exercise, a challenge to his body-music synchronization)
It was weird that actor who played the lead role, Nagase Tomoya (top), looked tremendously like Ramon Bautista (bottom), the comedic host of an MTV segment called, "The Ramon Bautista Show." The only difference is that the former is more muscular and probably taller than the latter.
Mafel and I were thinking that if the "di naliligong basagulero sa kanto" look was perceived as an appealing dangerous yakuza guise in Japan, we would be shockingly popular there as well. This encouraged us to aim to become superstars there, go on an Asian tour, and spread our fame even more. We even planned to release merchandise such as printed underwear (bra with our faces on each cup following the Mickey Mouse design in Janna's bra).
Japanese are really interesting, aren't they? What amazes me even more is their fandom. They upload shows an hour after broadcast. They make 88 icons in 2 days. This zeal actually made Mafel and I rekindle our banner maker hopes. However, I'm certain it would take us a long time before we could match their production rate. In addition, I still can't install Adobe Photoshop because my poor abused laptop only has 2.37 GB left. To make up for this state, I made a splendid new motto:
"Kung di mo kayang gawin, nakawin." XD 3:32 PM
