Day 30:
My last entry about positive thinking. Now that I've time to sit down and 'breathe' properly, I can introspect myself. I've been so busy last week until I don't have a proper time to help my mom's housework. I canceled this Friday's class and scheduled it for the next week Friday in order to have more time at home. Today I'm gonna make and bake some cookies which my mom had asked me from last week. *sigh* I'm not a good child am I? Doing my work first and postpone her request for nearly a week. I'm going to make up for it this week.

My mid exam grade had also fallen. >.< I only got 84 and 86... >.< I really should learn harder and be more careful in my exam... >.< My mom frowned when she had heard my mark... >.< Currently, I'm trying to boost my mark by doing my best in the project. At least if I got some sort of 90 in my project, I will still have the chance to get an A... >.<

Yesterday, I nearly lost my USB. *sigh* Left in lab computer before the lunch break and realized it after 2 hours later... >.< I was nearly getting crazy trying to find who had taken that USB... >.< More than 3 hours I search with frustration, asking fellow students, asking the underclass, asking the protekom, asking the cleaning service. *sigh* Lucky someone who I don't know had kindly handed my USB to the Lost and Found Department (honestly, I don't even know my university had that department.... *sweat*). I nearly cried out of relieve. It's not because of the price of the USB, but the contents are far more important! And the hanging decoration also. It's a present from my friend. I would be very guilty to lose it. >.< I really should be more careful with my stuff... Gosh... to think that I've done so many mistakes in these few days... >.

Just finished Seirei no Moribito (Guardian of the Sacred Spirit) yesterday and I only have one opinion... SUGOI!!!! I can't have another opinion for the plot and the characters themselves!

The story main character is a Kanbal woman called Barusa/Balsa. She's a very talented spear-wielder who work as a hired bodyguard. The opening scene shows she entered Yogo Kingdom and helped a royal family member (who we will know as Chagum) afterward. At the night, the Empress herself invited Balsa to her castle and request her to guard Chagum for the rest of her life (kind of forcing because Balsa of course cannot refuse after being told of the hidden fact if she want to continue living). The story continue with the journey of Balsa and Chagum trying to run away from their pursuers. In her journey, she is being aided by her childhood friend (who obviusly like her), Tanda. She also got help from 2 other loyal children called Saya and Touya who somehow indebted to her in the past. Apparently, the quest isn't as simple as keeping the boy safe. Shaman Torogai, master of Tanda, said that Chagum is bearing an egg of Nyunga Ro Im (a water spirit) which earned him a title of Nyunga Ro Chaga/Seirei no Moribito/Guardian of the Sacred Spirit. Instead of water fiend which believed bringing misfortune to the whole Kingdom (according to Yogo Kingdom's National History), the egg is completely a positive being. However, as the story evolve, they'll gain information that the Guardian will always face a dreadful fate which will definitely result in his death. Will Balsa fulfill her promise to protect Chagum even though her enemy is something that a mere human being cannot see (not even mention fight)?

In my opinion, every event looks very logical - I mean most of the escape success depend on careful planning/preparation, information gathering, and loyal friend's help. And even the ending. Though I really would prefer otherwise but I know this ending is 100% which will happen (judging from Chagum's personality). >.<

This series is one of the best! I think if you previously like Twelve Kingdom (Juuni Kokki), you would love this also (and vice versa). I strongly recommend it to everyone! It's too bad they only animate Nahoko Uehashi's first Guardian Series novel. >.< Wish they made all of them! >.<
Too bad my Japanese is super suck, I won't even be able to read one pages of Japanese novel. >.< Hope the English version published soon. I would definitely lined up to buy it. *determined*

Day 29:
>.< I've finished my first project. Though I told the payer that the IE layout is a bit different that Mozilla's, Safari's, and Opera's, looks like he's fine with it. He even paid me $30 from the $20 he had promised me. *yay!*

Now I can concentrate on other project. I'm interested in a phpbb project but I think I need to consider it a bit. The project length and my capability of course! LOL Viewing back on this week, I haven't finish my magazines, I didn't even have time to read newspaper. Not to mention I've neglected my text book >.< Erm... yeah, probably I should take a week break and chase up all my school work again before taking up any project. >.<

I've just finished watching "Seirei no Moribito" and wrote a review about it. :D Strange huh though I don't have time to do so much things but I still can crammed a spare time for watching anime! LOL Well, it deprived me of my rest time of course. *sweat*

Anyway, I'm pretty thankful that the ncis board is down for nearly this whole week. I could have time for myself a bit. Though I need to start indexing on info of course. LOL Xinan-sama would kill me if I didn't start after I've promised him to do it since last week.... Now, I can also get back on my fic reading track. Oh, I haven't read so many chapters of Velf stories... >.< Haven't been able to give her a proper review... >.<

And, did I mention that I got another 2 review on my fic? *yay!* I've planned to update a chapter this end of month, since I've promised the reviewer. *scratch head* Breaking promise is definitely not my style so even though I need to cram my schedule again, I'll definitely need to do it!

Day 28:
>.< Been bloody busy for these few days until I didn't have time to update the journal. I've been trying to write a 'personal statement' and 'statement of purpose' for my scholarship application. I'll be competing with brilliant applicants from the whole world >.< This time I can only do my best and leave the result to God. >.< It's been a frenzy for this three days because of that bloody essays - and today they told me that the application submission had been prolonged in the end of the month! O_O *sigh* Well, it's good since I'll have time to revise but that means I didn't have to rack my brain that hard! >.<

I guess the other things which had added to my busyness is because I've taken a small web project. Well, the coding isn't hard, but you need to be meticulous... And the other annoying thing from this project is: the website itself has lots of mistakes and invalid command! :( I can't tweak it because the user isn't allowed to but *sigh* I just hate to see so many errors... :(

Day 27:
Today our housemaid sick. She went home at the middle of her work hour and got home. Sigh... She couldn't even stand properly for 5 minutes. She should taken herself better...
My friends come over today, just to grab a bit air gear. Hahaha...
Oh today I also sent my revised CV. Hopefully I can get a good internship. >.<
I met my other family in England in msn. I just known that he has MSN. LOL I thought we're going to have some family chatting or stuff - honestly, I only see him once in my lifetime. However, the conversation turned into anime and manga instead. ROF LOL
Guess the thread that connect whole people in the world in anime and manga! *beginning to be awed by the power of anime and manga* LOL

Day 26:
I didn't really teach a thing in the lab today except scaring my student about the work that they shall do for the project report. LOL
The free class that I took gave a bit of work. But I'm too lazy to do it. I don't have Oracle at home anyway. LOL
But today I got 15 volumes of Anatolia Story/Red Rive. *cries* I wanted to read that so badly. *happy cries* My friend also lent me the third season of Supernatural *kyaaa*
Surprisingly the TA treated us in a sushi restaurant today! *another happy cries* Wow~~ today surely lots of good stuff happen - though that result in less online time. LOL

Day 25:
My dad didn't as much as I've thought... I wonder why... But well, it's good. I shouldn't be reckless again in the future. >.< Losing such an expensive, nostalgic and precious necklace. :( Hope you'll have a safe journey my dear necklace....
Today me and yan-chan exchanged address. She said she's going to send me something. Wonder what it'll be... *curious*

Day 24:
Yikes! I forgot today is the last day of the month! And today I was out nearly the whole day... My sister will be the one responsible to use up the bandwith. LOL
Today is also the day I lost my dear necklace. My aquamarine necklace.... T_T I just hope that the necklace is gone for something good that it should do... >.< My dad is gonna roar.... :(

Day 23:
Today we have no scripting class, I supposed to return faster today but I end up promising my friend that I'll visit him in his workplace today. He took me to watch a water fountain show and gosh! I think it worth the time and tiredness. :D Well, good things always happen when you don't fret - too much. *laughs*

And gosh... my other friend told me that he would treat us a dinner tomorrow for his birthday. Why can't he say it sooner? >.< I have made another promise with my other friend to go watch 'Forbidden Kingdom'... but I guess I can make it. *determined to make it* We watched the movie at afternoon and run to the mall at the noon.
