Same Fear 1 - Something Was Wrong

It was that time of the day again where the Kyurangers were listening to Commander Shou Ronpo as he laid out the plans for their next operation of liberating another sector of Planet Earth. But one thing was noticeable to almost everyone, though.

Hammie was distracted. In fact, it appeared that her mind was traveling somewhere if they would base it from her expression which made her appear to be at a loss.

10 games I love (give explanation for each).

If I'm going to be honest, I don't really play games a lot -- whether it would be an indoor game or even outdoor ones. But even with that, there were those online ones that I've paid attention to. At least, from time to time. I'll try to list down those that I can remember while waiting for the laundry in the washing machine to finish.

1. Badminton -- I may have said that I'm bad at playing outdoor games, but there were those that I ended up liking at some point. This is one of them. I guess this is one outdoor game that I enjoyed somehow.

2. Snakes & Ladder -- Probably my favorite board game when I was younger. My sisters and I would frequently play this game before. One of the games that gave us some bonding moments.

3. Tetris -- Most of the time, I hated this. But that was before I started playing it, thanks to my sister. I can't recall the name of the device where I would play this before, but I did enjoy playing this back then.

4. Crystal Saga -- Possibly the only MMORPG that I played as part of my research for a game project when I was in college. I played it so that I could have a gist of how it actually worked, and I did enjoy playing it, if I'm going to be honest. Made me able to think of a story line, as well.

5. A3! (Act! Addict! Actors!) -- The first actor training game I've played and couldn't get enough playing had not my phone got lost, and now the TelPad stumbled on some problems.

6. Rental Boyfriends -- Possibly the first otome game I've ever played and still loved playing until now.

7. Cybird Games (Ikemen Series) -- I couldn't exactly pick just one of the list of games that this otome series have, so I decided to do it like it. Yes, they're still otome games, but these were the ones I loved playing.

8. Hidden Objects -- This is a generalized term I used for all the games I played that has this theme. I just love playing this kind of game because they've served as my stress reliever before.

9. Word Hunt and Wordscape -- I think these two actually fall in the same category. They did help filling up my word bank, believe it or not. And for me, that's quite essential.

10. Jackstones -- Though the last time I played this was way back elementary days, I remembered enjoying this even if I was playing it alone.

[Book Comment] Amulet Of Quilla (Talisman # 3) by Allan Frewin Jones

So after months of reading this book chapter by chapter (or should I say part by part), I finally finished reading all of it -- while waiting for the rain to stop falling and waiting for the delivery guy to finally arrive with the plants that my mother ordered online -- again. Anyway, as I'm writing this down, I'm at the 4th floor of Maharlika Building in Baguio. And until now, it's still raining hard.

Anyway, I'll put that aside for now.

Stinger (Kyuranger)/Tsukuyomi (KR Zi-O): Before I See You Again

If I lose anymore than this, will my heart be forgiven? How much pain before I see you again? ~One More Time, One More Chance; Yamazaki Masayoshi

Bodies were scattered everywhere. Blood were spilled everywhere he looked. He was breathing hard, trying his best to recover his lost strength and energy after dealing with so many enemies that tried to take over the land.

For the tribe of scorpion men where Stinger belonged, this was a usual scenario to them. It was their tribe's duty to guard over the northern border of the kingdom and to protect the citizens and even some aristocrats living near there. With that thought, he stood up once more using his spear as a crutch -- and tried his best to survey his surroundings to check for any possible surviving enemies. He would never let anyone get pass through him -- now that he finally figured out the reason why they attacked.

What did you do this week that moved you closer to reaching your goals?

I've only taken a small step, and honestly, it's still not enough for me. Sure, it's still a step. But I wasn't satisfied with it. I kept on having procrastination moments that makes it hard for me to stop. I do feel ashamed of such actions and the results that came because of that. But for some weird reason, I still keep at it. Keep on dreaming about that particular scenario. Keep on visualizing it. Is it a bad idea that I end up procrastinating because of doing so?

Anyway, I still write. But at some point, I wasn't writing fiction. I kept on writing essays, my thoughts on the quotes I made up and some song lyrics that caught my attention. Sure, most of them were like futuristic, dream-like and wishful, in some sense. But they all hold some of the feelings and wishes I kept over time, especially with regards to love that I truly desire to experience. And yet, I haven't been going out much or even interacting that much for something to actually happen.

But maybe... those words I've been posting, those stories I've been sharing online, can provide a way -- whether unexpectedly or intentionally -- for a miracle like that to happen. Writing those words may, in fact, become a pathway to let me reach one of my goals.

Since the angel-themed story I submitted a long time ago was finally approved (late news, sorry), I ended up actually expanding the story of the Angel Knights mentioned in that story into a series. Yes, I know I'm putting more pressure on myself by adding another series to write. But I don't want to lose the idea just yet. Well, from the submitted story, Aithen and Neriah had made an appearance and both were introduced as Maxiel's friends. But there were other Angel Knights, as well, who were close to Maxiel and were very dedicated to their duty as the Angel Knights on Earth.

After A Celebration Comes This...

Okay. This just came as a bit of a shock for me. I only learned the news due to a post of a Facebook friend. But December 1st? Seriously? That early? Why is that? I maybe complaining nonsense here, but it's still unfair. She was still young to leave this world.

I've always wondered why Mana left the later parts of Ryusoulger when it was still airing. Sure, I knew there were issues (not bad ones, I hoped at the time). But never did it come to me that it was because of an illness. Though I'm curious as to what illness had exactly contributed to her death, I'm quite sure the pandemic had nothing to do with it. Or maybe that's just me thinking. Who knows what really happened. It's quite admirable that she still did her best in her career even though she was dealing with such predicament.

Even through this, I still want to extend my condolences to her friends and family. I know many people loved her so much.

I know I shouldn't be talking about this here. But since I made her one of my visual inspirations in a planned fantasy story that I have inspired by an old story I wrote a long time ago based on Encantadia, because of this news, I intend to change her as a visual inspiration. I tend to do this as a sign of respect, similar to what I've already done before when an actor/actress died or left the entertainment industry. This is going to be the fifth time I'm doing this.

Wherever you are, 金城茉奈さん, I hope you're happy and in a better place now. No more sufferings. 😣😭⤵︎

【personal thoughts】생일 축하 합니다, 김석진씨!

This will be the first for me. At least on the part of greeting a Korean celebrity on his/her birthday on any of my social media accounts, let alone my blog. But as they say, there's a first time for everything. So here I am.

Happy birthday to my BTS bias, Kim Seokjin!

I know, I'm not much of a fan of K-Pop. But I do listen to some of their songs, and it was because of my youngest sister who introduced this group to me. Jin was the very first that I noticed among the member, so I guess you could say he stood out a lot for me. Funny thing, though, I only noticed that Jin and my sister Des were born on the same month and year ー just different dates. Knowing that, it would definitely be easier for me to recall his birthday. 😁✨

I hope you have a great birthday today, in spite of the pandemic. Do take care of yourself. And I'm pretty sure you haven't shown at least majority of your true self to other people. But the are people who still cares for you, so don't lose hopeand keep having faith in life. I know you won't be able to read this. Even with that knowledge, please know that a lot of people loves you, and not your family, friends, and ARMY. Thank you for being born in this world and doing your best to become an inspiration to many.

Along with this celebration, this day happens to be another first time for us. This is the first time in (I guess) five years that we have  Christmas decorations in our house. I don't want to delve deeper into the reason as to why we didn't put up decorations in that long. But some of those reasons had something to do with growing up and also my parents' separation back then.

Things had changed over time, I guess. And I'm glad that these changes are happening even with the current world situation. 😌💗

【personal thoughts】お誕生日おめでとうございます、尾碕真花さん!

Okay. I know I haven't done something like this in quite a long while. But only because I usually ran out of things to type here whenever I would try to greet someone when it was their birthday, especially if it is a celebrity. I intend to change that, though. So I'm starting today, during the birthday of Asuna/Ryusoul Pink's actress, Osaki Ichika.

I really like her character in Ryusoulger, prompting me to follow her both in Instagram and Twitter. I even turned on the notifications for her posts.

This might not be much, but I do hope you have a great day today. You might not understand what I'm writing here. But know that I like you as an actress and I can see that you're doing your best in your chosen career. I have faith that you can do a lot more, as long as you do your best. Thank you for protraying Asuna and becoming one of the actresses that I follow on social media. Here's me, wishing you a happy birthday once again and that you have a wonderful time on your special day, regardless of the pandemic still raging about.

お誕生日おめでとうございます！ 👑✨🎂🎈🎁🎉

Story Scenario: Hatsue and Ralnor

Hatsue: I don't know why I once believed that I wasn't meant for something great. But this world had shown me so much more of what I'm capable of doing, with or without magic...

Ralnor: I wish I could've seen the same thing as you do in this world where I was born and raised. That way, I would've discovered my real destiny a long time ago, before doing something irreversible...

***

At this point of the conversation between Hatsue (Osaki Ichika) and the Cloudbreakers' leader Ralnor (Kizu Takumi), it appeared that the war had escalated in a way that truly forced each of the warriors to realize what exactly was their destiny in order to liberate the entire Cloud Dimension.
