Today gt injection... Ouch so darn painful... the first one (MMR, mumps-measles-rubella) hurt SO much when inserted... Really like sewing needle inserting.... And for some reason left a slight lingering pain in my right arm which passed like 1+ hr later... The DPT + oral sabin was injected in my left arm (except for the sabin which was swallowed. Tasted weird) and it didn't hurt as much as the MMR... Although it started to feel numb and painful (my left arm lah) after the pain on the right arm subsided, it still hurts now (I remember from p1 that it hurt for a few days and anyhow the pupils from other classes said the same thing) as I'm typing (I think my upper arm muscles tighten when i'm typing so it hurts)... Ouchh... I'm not 1 who takes pain well...
Just finished a nice real story named Totto-chan The Girl at the Window, written by Tetsuko Kuroyanagi. The story is about a little girl named Totto-chan (her nickname) and she got expelled when she was in first grade in a certain school. Her parents then enrolled her into Tomoe Gakuen, a small 'school' comprising of less than fifty students. The book follows her and her adventures in Tomoe Gakuen, right up to the time when it was destroyed by the Americans in World War II (yup, it takes place so long ago). In fact, Totto-chan was the author herself, and it's something like a biography of her childhood (more like part of her childhood) and the story's pace is just right (although the start of each chapter has no linking to the previous whatsoever so the reader maybe just that little bit confused) that resulted in me using the computer later than usual. Anyhow, that book belongs to Mayvene, so I'm gonna return her tomorrow (yup, I promised her, and besides I'm one who has to finish a book once I start it). I hope for more books to read... I'm bored!

Ytd I went to Hougang Mall with my nanny... Not much of entertainment but anyhow she wanted to go there so I went too... Wanted to play the Mario Kart at TimeZone but people keep hogging and when they finally go other people immediately sit down so I didn't have a chance to play... Then so many ppl there playing games so I didn't play a lot of games... Next time want to ask friends to come with me to play...
Interesting thing that before entering HM my nanny said I'll definitely meet friends or people I know in HM and when I entered and looked into McDonald she was rite... becoz I told her everytime I went HM met a friend, and I saw Michelle... Coincidence??? But she was the only one... Sometimes I'll meet more...
Then we went shop shop around the shops outside the HM then nanny bought a pair of shoes for me... Happy definitely but I wanted CLOTHES not SHOES... Gt 3 pairs of new shoes this year liao if I total up... But 1 pair spoil already -.-" Hope I can buy clothes soon....
Btw I changed my SIM card sorry for inconvenience... If u forgot my hp num juz tag me and I'll keep in touch with u. Definitely.

P.S. I was happier ytd than any other day cos I didn't hv to stay at home and play com all day... Although I wish I can buy manga bk soon to kill my boredom...

Today I suddenly decided to 'research' on things that I wanted to know... (Actually can't exactly be considered as 'suddenly' as I had no idea what I wanted to do online.) I started with Itazura na Kiss, an anime that Kaiyi said was interesting to watch, then I moved on to the mangaka (a person who draws manga) of the series, then to Ritsuko Okazaki, the singer of the theme songs of Fruits Basket, then to Yui Horie, the voice actress of Tohru Honda of Fruits Basket, then to Ayumi Hamasaki and Utada Hikaru, and finally Fruits Basket and the books + CD relating to it other than the manga itself. Here's what I learnt:
-Itazura na Kiss was never finished due to the death of the mangaka while moving house.
-The mangaka of Itazura na Kiss, Kaoru Tada, hit her head on a marble table while moving house with her husband and son and went into a coma. She passed away 3 weeks later, on March 11 1999 at 38 years old.
-Ritsuko Okazaki passed away on May 5 2004 due to sepsis shock (a medical term for bloodstream infection). She was 44 years old.
-Apparently Ritsuko Okazaki produced songs for Yui Horie, the voice actress of Tohru Honda in Fruits Basket and voice actress of Yuki Cross in Vampire Knight.
-Fruits Basket anime was produced in 2001, before the manga finished in 2006. As a result the anime only featured part of the whole manga series and never introduced all the zodiac characters. This is also why Ritsuko Okazaki was able to compose and sing the theme songs. She also came up with the lyrics herself.
-Yui Horie has released 7 albums in addition to her many roles of voice actress in various animes.
-Ayumi Hamasaki started modeling at age seven, after which she acted and sang. Her first few singles, as well as her previous results of modeling, acting or singing did not exactly bring her to popularity. It wasn't until she released her debut album (she released a rap album before though) that she became famous.
-Ayumi Hamasaki is deaf in her left ear from a disease.
-Utada Hikaru is 25 years old this year, but is married at age 19 before divorcing at 24. She plans to get married again.
-There was once when the two singers were competing with their albums in year 2001, which resulted in each album (Ayumi a compliation album and Hikaru a second studio album) selling over 5 million copies.
-Fruits Basket has a drama cd released by magazine Hana to Yume, a fan book and 2 art books by Natsuki Takaya. There are also items like Fruits Basket plushies of the various zodiac animals, calendars (wall type), clothes, keychains, button, figurines, school supplies and a collectible card game, some of the items produced. (I personally own a Fruits Basket envelope and letter set.) This shows how popular Fruits Basket is.
-Fruits Basket is known worldwide. Apart from its original Japanese language, this manga is also translated into 11 other languages.

Ok, I've no idea why I wanted to put all this on my blog. Maybe I am a fan of everything Japanese so this is the result?? I really want to collect all the Fruits Basket merchandise though... Only bought up to volume 8 and already a hard-core fan. LOL. Signing off!

P.S. Information on all this is on Wikipedia and Anime News Network.

Ok, I posted again. I really want Fruits Basket 9!! Someone give me!!! Lol why shouldn't I buy you ask? Well parents keep going on and on about the financial crisis now then nid save $$ then blah blah... T__T so can't buy.. Sobs. Suffering from Fruits Basket Withdrawal Syndrome.
Kind of feel like watching anime. Maybe watch after posting this entry. I have nothing to do anyway and not going out with peeps so.. Bored.
Don't know whether look forward to going back to school. I mean I don't have anything to do so a bit bored. Maybe school can keep me occupied for a while. Scratch that, it's not that I don't have things to do, it's because I DON'T want to do. So why am I moaning? I don't feel like doing those things...
One thing I regretted not doing is taking pics of me and kaiyi and cass when we went out. I forgot. I wish we could do it now. Take a photo!!
Anyway can't turn back time so juz forget it. I think there'll be a next time. I think.

Fun Day Out

Yesterday I went out with Kaiyi and Cass Foo to Bishan Junction 8 to watch the new 20th Century Boys movie. Had a lot of fun...

We went there at abt 12pm but they reached first cos my dad was slow... They were shopping at Gift a Name and bought some keychains. After which we went to the food court and me and cass bought pepper lunch... Yum! I bought the Salmon Pepper Lunch while Cass bought the Pepper Lunch with Chicken and Egg (called something like that, I can't remember the exact name!). Kaiyi said wanna go on diet wor... Bought bobo chacha and lemon tea, but didn't finish! Cass too... She also had coke and didn't finish everything. Me, well I cleaned the whole plate! :D

After that we went to Virtualand, the arcade. I spent $5 there (my Pepper Lunch cost $6.50) for 2 games of Mario Kart + Mario Kart card ($2) and a racing game. We also played a drumming game, lots and lots of basketball games (I didn't play, only Kaiyi and Cass played), the 'pucker' game (the game where you get a pucker and you're supposed to hit it with a 'bat'... I dunno the game! Ask Kaiyi or Cass!). We spent lots of money there!

We went to Comics Connection next becoz Cass said she wanted to buy comics... But she didn't buy in the end -.-" However me and Kaiyi shared a Chinese comic book cost. Kaiyi if u see this blog entry lend me the comic book!

Then we go guang guang (shopping) lor... Juz go here and there look and see... When we went from a stall selling bags to dunno where Kaiyi said the shopkeeper (or rather stallkeeper) was glaring at us. Maybe becoz we see everything but never buy something?? Then Kaiyi decided to go back up the cinema and we bought popcorn + coke. But the cinema hall wasn't seating yet so me and Cass were standing there eating popcorn while Kaiyi went to toilet. When she came back the hall was available for seating so we went in. Even though the show said to start at 2.45pm but 3pm alr haven't start and we finished HALF the popcorn (haha!)!!!!! Anyhow the show started and was very nice!

However near the end of the movie Cass kept saying is this possible is that possible? It WAS supposed to be sci-fi... But the movie nice lah wanna watch the second! (It's a trilogy.) Maybe we can meet up next year or next next year depending when the second comes into the cinema and catch up with everything seeing as we are going to different schools (maybe)... Anyhow we kept hoping yes ended! but it never seemed to end becoz we all wanted to go toilet LOL. We did go before the movie... I think it was becoz of the coke. After the movie FINALLY ended me and Kaiyi discussed about the movie and agreed that the storyline was a little similar to that of Death Note's although Kaiyi said Death Note was simpler while me and Cass thought it was more complex than 20th Century Boys. We have different opinions?

We bought Takopachi before going to the bus stop and taking the bus home.. Me and Cass took 88 while Kaiyi took 55 I think... At least I got company :D I got off few bus stops before Cass and I thought, fun day out! We should do it again! I should certainly do this with my other friends too!

~Cally :)

P.S. When the second of 20th Century Boys comes out let's go and watch it together Kaiyi and Cass!
