| Unworthy of Block |
[Monday November 16th, 2009 2:15am] |
I haven't really "published" something worth noting if not at all. The only real thing I have out there is a screenplay based from my Livejournal as filler in film festivals. So really, have I earned the right to call this phase I'm having a "writer's block". In a sense, I haven't done anything really substantial. And my musings to the web really is just a sick masturbation by a regular schmoe.
It's more than halfway through this year's Nanowrimo, and yet I stare at the blank screen wanting to type something. Hell I want to outline something, but nothing seems to come out. I heard it's the first three pages that lead you break the inertia of procrastination. Right now, I plan to write, but all it remains are ideas mentally outlined and forever lost in a pool of dead ideas.
Maybe one day, I'll write again.

When you were still courting me, I already imagined how cool our pre-nup pictures will be. You with "Kitten bus", the Honda CB-1 bike, and me with my awesomeness Fernandes Mockingbird guitar. Ofcourse, our official photographer will be Keith Dador. :D

But now, I guess it will be nothing but a doodle. :(
Not to mention, I don't know how to draw anymore. Literally. Wah. :((

[Deadcraft.Com]: Dir en Grey Crochet Dolls
I don't always have the opportunity to collaborate with a lot of other people in this crocheting business, so when you have friends over in Japan who also happen to maintain one of the best and most popular Dir En Grey websites on the web, then you tend to jump all over their offer to do something in tandem with the fandom.
And so presenting, the current incarnation of Dir En Grey!


Given that the band look tends to change often in the same way seasons change, this is their current Autumn 2009 regalia. Of course, a few people who'd been with me way back when I was crocheting long before I'd had a website know that this isn't the first time I've crocheted Kyo.
  
Risu and Nao have been kind enough to promote these little dolls for me at their Dir en Grey site, http://www.orchestrated-chaos.com - and to my surprise, the dolls promptly sold out in a matter of days. So if any of you guys would like to purchase more Dir en Grey dolls, either with their current look, or in any previous costumes / wardrobes, head on over to their site and put in a request! They do a far lot better job at organizing these things than I could ever do!

| Network Maintenance: Saturday, November 14, 2009 at 04:00-06:00 UTC/GMT |
[Wednesday November 11th, 2009 2:00pm] |
EDIT@08:16 UTC/GMT. Wow. That was ugly. I expected it to go for 30 minutes and have maybe 1 minute of broken connectivity. Instead it lasted over 4 hours and we had 10 minutes of downtime directly related to the load balancer upgrades and then another 5-10 minutes of downtime when our primary Pingback database server crashed and the secondary couldn't take over; which could have been indirectly caused by the network upgrade missing a self-VIP.
Anyways, we're up, we're working, the load balancers are barely breaking a sweat right now and I need some food and a shot of whiskey. I don't even *like* whiskey!!
Thanks mhwest and dnewhall for helping out!
---
On Saturday the 14th at 4AM UTC/GMT we will be upgrading the operating system of our network load balancers to a newer version, one that will allow us to use both CPUs! Nifty, because multiprocessing is nice.
Since we have 2 load balancers, the plan is to upgrade 1 at a time, and there really should be very little impact to our website. Hopefully you won't notice a thing and I'll get to go back to the hotel and watch some wonderful late night infomercials.
We've got a lot of exciting projects coming up for 2010 and we're hoping that we'll be able to deliver them all to you, that you will find it useful/cool/lovely and then you will use the site even more. Behind-the-scenes work like this will give us the capacity to handle the anticipated traffic, so expect a few more maintenance windows especially in the beginning of next year as we've got some neat ideas to improve performance around here! We had the recent 30-45 minute outage yesterday due to one of our logging databases filling up disk space -- not so great design coupled with my human error in handling the initial problem -- and it looks like we're going to finally have some resources to eliminate stuff like that. I can't wait!
As usual, I will be updating status.livejournal.org before and after, just in case you are not able to reach our main website during the work.

| It’s Hard to be Antisocial When You’re at Work |
[Wednesday November 11th, 2009 8:51am] |
|

So I go to work now. Most days, anyway. The workspace I occupy at my sometimes-job is separated from most of my other work colleagues’; it’s a small office room instead of a cubicle, roughly twentyish by fifteen feet. One other person shares this space with me, but as he’s often away on meetings and trips I am usually by myself most days when I roll out of bed and remember that I have a job. I’m not entirely sure of the reasons behind this peculiar segregation, but three possible explanations come to mind:

My wishes... they just keep on coming true. Because...
Shota has updated Kura'yas again (his 22nd entry yaaay!)
Ahaha! And even Kura'nberry demands for more updates from him, and it looks like he's starting to stuff himself with food again!
I really miss the "healthy" Tatsu...
At last, more magazine scans from Vendy! It makes me want to buy Potato's December 2009 issue coz eito's on the cover! And darn it... one of my weaknesses are men in white shirt They just look so clean and huggable. And they look as if they smell sooooo nice 
After several episodes of bleeding (I have my period, my nose bled, and I accidentally cut my finger), I met up with neo_hippie_cat after my shift. We went to her sister kitsunemd 's Tatsu House and I finally met Aoi-chan 
Aoi-chan is kitsunemd 's daughter and she's sooooooo cute! She's the biggest fan of eito rangers and I think she have already memorized the whole eito ranger skit not only from Puzzle DVD, but also from 47 DVD!
France aka neo_hippie_cat introduced me to Aoi-chan as "Yasu's girlfriend". So when I went in the bathroom to change my clothes, she was asking France where Yasu's girlfriend is XDDDD And when I came back, she asked me if I went to Yasu's house to take care of him when he got sick. I crack up everytime she tells me something about the eito rangers like when the mannequin made Yasu cry. She even asked me kindly not to do the same thing to him! Isn't she such a sweetheart!?
She even drew something for me!

  
Today, I received some lovely stuffs!

My Irei Kanata postcards from puzzlepiece finally arrived  Irei is soooo gorgeous in those postcards that I feel guilty for putting my Musical Elisabeth pamphlet on sale 
( Irei <333 ) And France and Venice aka kitsunemd gave me Kagotsurube's flyer! It's sooooooooo gorgeous!
( Yasutsurube )
Ok guys! I shall go to work now! France really needs her own tag in this lj of mine and I'm just gonna do that later after work!
See yah all!
Should I say... doron?

David Usher - Black Black Heart 2.0 |
] |
Of all my muses, ever since I've started role-playing this past April, Ribbons ( arcanesansnom) proved to be the one who is musically demanding (with Fon and Saji tied at the second place, and Soma at third).
I have therefore plucked out the top eleven, or representative songs that I'd like to share with you. These elusive muses more or less outline my story for him, as far as the role-play he's in is concerned.

| :: :: :: :: :: :: :: :: :: :: :: | Escala Filter t.A.T.u. Madonna Duran Duran David Usher The Script Bond The Script David Usher Craig Armstrong | Download from 4shared (49.1 MB) |
... and yes, David Usher appears twice because (1) one can never get enough of David Usher; and (2) two versions for two moods ;3. A holler goes out to taichara for reminding me of this artist; and another holler for misshallelujah for pointing out Escala. ♥
( Little thoughts on the tracks~ )
I think there's a song for everyone, so, RP aside, I just wanted an excuse to share some music to my FList.
Y'all have a good day! <3

| It gets lonely in here sometimes. |
[Tuesday November 10th, 2009 6:20pm] |
Sometimes im reminded how easily users shift to one journal format to another. The natural yearning of man to improve, and be attracted to better or new things, dropping off the old like shedding one's skin.
And there are those who still stick to the old, tedius, now boring formats. Perhaps out of loyalty, or perhaps out of laziness to learn anything new.
Either way, as time progresses, the popular reason of writing one's thoughts in LJ comes to light: the need of not just writing down your thoughts, but the need to have someone, anyone, react to them. Thus most of us simply move on to places where we get noticed the most.
In the meantime, it gets lonely in here. :P
Still, its nice to write down thoughts where currently only very few can read, or care to.
Dont worry LJ, were still here writing our thoughts to people who care to read them.

Have you been torn in a situation wherein you can't decide whether you should stay loyal or fight in fulfilling your dreams?
Well, I am... now...
Apparently, I've longed for a longer shift in my current company that will pay me more, and will make me a notch higher than my position... in other words, promotion.
Just recently, a door has been opened for me for this opportunity... but I'M TORN!
You see, my current boss is the reason why I am working in this wonderful company in a very good community. But stepping up would mean I will have to leave our department (elementary) and shift to another. I'm afraid of what she'll think or feel.
If you were in my position, what will you do? It's a choice between taking a plunge at the opportunity or staying loyal. Ugh! I'm sooo confused...
Anyway, enough of that drama... here's what I want for today... I've been craving for this babies for DAYYYYS!
