Night 1

Before I start typing up my "Night 1" of my dream journal, I want to share something that has been pissing me off. I keep dreaming about the same girl for several nights. It's good and bad. Dunnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnooooooo.

1st Dream: It happened in a white room lit by a very bright light. Morgan Freeman was there dressed in a white suit with white shoes. He was frustrated and repeatedly says "I can lucid dream!" He was with somebody but I couldn't tell who it was.

2nd Dream: Kuya Jason, an Airman, and myself were involved. It happened at my apartment back in Daly City. I tried signing on to Windows Messenger but it wouldn't let me sign in. I used a different program called Windows Live Messenger instead. Eros' sent my brother a message stating that Jeser is getting a new game. I remember him making fun of Jeser. All of a sudden, a fat guy wearing a beater, boxers, and a bathrobe showed up with a shotgun. He is trying to rob us but he wanted to sleep. He gave me the shotgun to stand watch. The Airman broke the camera that was guarding the apartment and went to go shopping. Sakura (from Naruto) saw him walking. Then the scene shifted where an Anime looking character that had green hair escaped the zombies in a Resident Evil format. It looked like a game.

3rd Dream: I came back from deployment. Erwin and my dad was there. I couldn't come with them because I had to work at Safeway. I couldn't use the phone that a girl lent me because it was too old. A guy that I met at Bahrain lent me his phone that was high tech. I didn't get to connect.

4th Dream: My Chief told me I did the FITREP wrong, but my name wasn't on the routing sheet. My supervisor was panicking. and it was an O4 FITREP. Block 15 was wrong and Chief wanted March 7 to be March 1. It was already signed by the Skipper.

Why, hello again :)

Wooooow, says here that my last post was on August 2010. I really let this blog go huh. I just got bored of it and had other shit to worry about. Now, I'm back. I'll probably be updating this blog for 5 more months and just completely stop.

I've decided to make my blog an online dream journal because of my sudden interest for lucid dreaming. I want to have a nice date with Hwang Mi Hee, sue me :P

*ring ring* *ring ring* *ring ring*
The sound coming from my cellphone took me back to reality. I checked who was calling and saw the name “Aoi”. Looking at this name gave me distinctive feelings. I felt happy, excited, and hopeful. But I also felt depressed, discouraged, and pained.

“Hello”
“Nobu! I’m waiting outside! Hurry and come out, it’s cold and you’re leaving me here all alone at night!”
“I’ll be right there~!

I hurried to the door and put on my shoes. I looked at the mirror and fixed up my hair a little bit. I heaved a big sigh and whispered to myself “…I can do it”. I opened the door and saw a girl that made my heart beat like I was running an endless road. Her smile was godlike, making me catch my breath every time I see it. Her bangs which were parted to the side, gave her a sense of simplicity and beauty.

“Hey Aoi!”, forcing myself to smile. She looked at me and said nothing. She looked down and gave me a hug. The side of her face was pushed against my chest and I held her. She looked back up to me and her eyes told me the whole story of what she was feeling. There was a hint of regret and sadness overwhelming her.

Honestly, I didn’t know what to say. We started walking to her place with a few random conversations. But most of the time, it was pure silence. You see, she was leaving tonight. She was going somewhere far away, a place that I can’t even reach. After 30 minutes of walking, we stopped by her house. I stared at her eyes and she stared at mine. It was gut wrenching. I opened my mouth and what came out was…”I hope you take care of yourself…” She smiled but there was a sight of disappointment on her face. She gave me a hug without saying anything and went back to her house.

I walked in the night alone. Tears started to run down my face. I can’t let it end like this. My body was moving on its own, never stopping to run back. I can’t end it like this. Flashbacks started to emerge. I can’t end it like this. I was so close to her. I can’t end it like this. The first time we met, we ate out, the sunset we saw together, the shooting star we both wished on, and the moon we both gazed upon. I can’t end it like this. Why are things never working out? Why can’t we just be together? Why does she have to move? These questions were in my head. I paused. As the cold wind was breezing through my hair, I clenched my fists.

(2 minute mark) (Stop reading until epic DRUMS KICK IN BITCH)

I started running. I ran and ran as hard as I can, tears streaming down my face. What was I doing? I started to worry. I was worried that I won’t be able to see her again. I was worried I won’t be able to say my true feelings. The feeling of regret enveloped my body and now I was running for my life. Turn left, go straight, turn right, and go straight. The path reminded me of my life with her. We both didn’t know where we were going and what turn will bring us. But you know, I’m glad it was with her. My legs started to hurt as I ran up the hill. I started to run faster ignoring the physical pain because I was trying to prevent another pain, the pain in my heart.

“Nobu?”
“Yeah?”
“I’m leaving tomorrow…”
“I know that Aoi, what you’d think? I’d forget?”
“No…” Tears ran down her face.
I hugged her. She kissed me on the cheek.
“I wish it was like this forever, Nobu.”
“Shhh…it’s okay Aoi. Don’t cry anymore.”


I saw her house out in the distance. I ran and ran. The house still remained in the distance. The more I ran, the farther the distance has become. All of a sudden, the face of her smiling popped inside my head. Her smile, her innocence, everything about her makes me want to stay by her side forever. I stopped with my head down. Panting, I looked up and saw something that I will remember for the rest of my life. The problem was that “something” is nothing. Her car was gone and the lights were off. I walked to her front door and rang the doorbell. I rang it again. No answer. I rang it again. No answer. I rang it again. No answer. I pressed the door bell repeatedly with tears flowing.

The sunlight got into my eyes.

Fanime 2009

Me and my three other friends (Eros, Chris, Matthew) went to one of the largest anime conventions held in North California. We were planning to stay there for the whole weekend but then plans changed. We didn't have any hotel and we couldn't share one. It doesn't really matter because one day felt like forever.

On Friday, we met in Eros' house because his parents were going to drop us to the San Jose convention. We had to sleep over because we were leaving early. We played some Xbox 360, ate some pizza and we just chilled until we had to leave. We only got 2 hours of sleep before leaving to Fanime at 6AM. When we got there, there were some people already lining up. We were lucky that not much people were there. I just loved the people in Fanime. I had a feeling that I belonged there because everybody was nice and treated others like they were friends and knew each other.

We got to meet a lot of cosplayers and took pictures with them. Fanime was VERY TIRING due to the fact that we only had 2 hours of sleep. At times we would just sit down and just rest for a bit. We even took a 10-20 minute nap in one of their theaters showing "Ah! My Goddess!" There was a lot of funny things that happened in Fanime but the funniest would have to be in the line for the Maid Cafe. For some reason, the Maid Cafe didn't open on time. The maids came out and started to apologize to the people who were lining up. All of a sudden, some dude with glasses shouted "WHHHYYYYYY?!" It was very funny since most of us thought that he was joking. He just left and made a scene. Maid Cafe was meehhh. It was alright but I was expecting MORE. BUT whatever, I guess I could only find the good Maid Cafes in Japan.

We ended up staying in Fanime from 8AM to around 9:30PM. We were all dead tired but it was worth it. I also bought a really cool Gurren Lagann poster and it looks awesome. Next year, hopefully, we would stay for the weekend with a hotel.

THIS BLOG IS STILL ALIVE

What's up with me

I haven't been able to update my blog since last week due to laziness and school. Since its a Friday night and I have nothing else to do, I decided to just post whats been happening with me for this past week.

First off, I'm very happy because I finally got a Fender Precision Bass with upgraded pickups. The tone is so punchy and I just love it. I gotta thank my dad for buying me this beautiful bass. The song I'm trying so hard to learn right now is Hysteria by Muse. This song has an epic bass riff that is catchy but hard and fun to play. I need to buy a distortion pedal for that song but fortunately, my friend is going to let me borrow his for a while. This song requires fast finger picking and my fret hand has to be accurate and swift. So far, I'm getting the intro and will take me a while.

My friend let me borrow Call of Duty 4 a few days ago and I've been playing the campaign a lot on Veteran. I love its graphics and the fast gameplay. The story-line is kinda generic but it's still awesome. I've also been playing GTAIV a lot. I love the story line but the missions are kind of repetitive. So, I just mess around killing random people most of the time and ignore missions.

This week was boring. Nothign dramatic happening. I LOVE MY LIFE

My bass broke

I'm really pissed off because my bass suddenly breaks on me. I'm not too sure if its my bass or my amp but after researching thoroughly, my bass guitar is most likely the victim. I also borrowed an extra cable from a friend to make sure it is not my cable that has a difference. Now the problem is, whenever I on the amp with my bass plugged in, it starts to make this really loud buzzing noise and the pickups can't detect any sound.

I showed this to my dad last night and he is assuming it is the amp. My brother also agreed with him. Now I have to go to my friend's house to get my amp tested to see if that really is the problem. The good news is that, if it really is broken, my dad COULD buy me a better one. I really need this because we might gig soon so yeah. FUUUUUUUUUU....
