Love That Transcends Time and Dimensions



The manga is finally over. After 6 years and 28 volumes,
CLAMP finally pullsthe curtains on Tsubasa RESERVoiR
CHRoNiCLE. To the uninitiated, the manga is about
Syaoran, an archeologist, who travels through dimension
and time in search of his childhood friend's Feathers of
Memories. Without those feathers, Sakura not only loses
her memories, but also her life. So he has to go across
time and dimensions and uncover the secret and
conspiracy that lies hidden behind the scattering of feathers..

CLAMP is my most favourite mangaka (comic artist in
Japanese) ever since I watched CardCaptor Sakura .
CCS fascinated me and a lot of people too till today.
And to those who are close to me would know that I really,
really love a character in CCS that caused me to read
Tsubasa and to want to name my son with his name
LOL LOL LOL. That character is of course
SYAORAN LI



I can't really pinpoint my obsession with him but hey I know
men-MEN, okay who have huge obsession/crush/admiration
towards him so mine is justified really. What I love most
about Syaoran Li is that he is a cool, rational, logical Tsundere.
Like most love stories, he was at first indifferent towards
Sakura Kinamoto whom he saw as his rival in gathering the
cards. But as they got to know each other, he begins to
admire Sakura's sincerity and determination, not to mention
her kindness. He understands her and helps her all
the way till Sakura manages to gather all the cards. They
seperate when he goes back to HK (they were 10)
but they reunite (they are 16) when he returned to Japan
permanently to be with her AWW...

anyway, going back to Tsubasa Chronicle, midway
of the story was draggy and the end left many
questions unanswered (which I have a feeling that
xxxhOLic will cover) but at least Syaoran managed
to say I LOVE YOU to Sakura.
HE IS THE MAN in Tsubasa and CCS YEAH!

I just love the ending parallelism:
-Both had Syaoran saying ILU first
-Both had Sakura reciprocating
-Both had the couples seperated;
Syaoran Li had to go back to HK and
Syaoran TRC had to continue his journey
-Both couples promised to see each other
again and they willwait for each other
-Sakura and Syaoran of CSS were reunited
and Syaoran and Sakura
of TRC were sure they will be reunited

ok, i would to spam this post with lotsa great pics of the
couple but I RESIST!!

I'll go b4 i bore u *wink wink*

Selamat Hari Raya everyone!!!

I have been meaning to do this post quite rightly before
Hari Raya but alas we cats had so many things to do
when Hari Raya is coming what with the house and the
food etc etc :)

And not to forget the school work that we carried home
that is my bane during hari raya this year. Why did I not
finish it before hr? well, if i want to have a dirty and
umpleasent house during hr maybe i could but we cats
would love a lovely house for hr lol lol lol

so this week i only visited my grandma's home
and spent some quality time with my family besides
entertaining the guests and also my exam papers..
in fact i'm writing this because i could not fall
asleep after finishing my stack of paper 2 at 3.30am
today. Maybe after this I will..

Oh, i have 2 more classes to go, 50 papers of
paper2 English waiting to make my hr dry
and making my nights sleepless and depriving
my skin from the much needed rest..

tata guys n see ya l8t3r

Inuyasha The Final Act



One fateful day, a high school girl falls into a mysterious well
and finds herself transported to Sengoku Jidai, or Feudal
Japan.
While trying to return to her own world, she sees
a figure impaled to a tree. She pulls out an arrow struck
to his heart and the figure, Inuysha wakes up- and that
stranger would then be the most important stranger in her life..

=>> Above was a simplified review of the manga Inuyasha,
or in English means Demon Dog.
I love this manga, well many people critique it for being too
long(Rumiko Takahashi's longest manga to-date) but hey,
at least it has a stronger and conclusive ending than Ranma 1/2
(oopss spoiler!!)

> well Inuyasha the anime series ended in the year 2004
but just adapted half of the manga. Since the manga had
ended last year, there will be another tv series to give the
audience their ending.

>Being a fan of the series (yes, I've watched all 167 eps)
this piece of news excites me. I know they would drag
the already draggy story but this IS inuyasha we're
talking about. Regardless of all the draggy and
inconceivable plots created to drag the main story, I
really enjoyed it (unless you are Kikyou fan, err...)
The hopeless romantic in me adores Kagome, and
wishes for someone as bratty and cute as Inuyasha LOL
Worse comes to worse I'll watch the last arc and
be at peace with it.

>Inuyasha is special to me because it was the anime
I watched in my undergrads days and I had made
a lot of friends because of it AND because it's 3rd
ending song
is like my fave song ever!!!

It is Dearest by Ayumi Hamasaki

Original / Romaji LyricsEnglish Translation
hontou ni taisetsu na mono igai subete sutete
shimaetara ii no ni ne
genjitsu wa tada zankoku de
It would be nice if we could put away and throw out
everything except what really mattered, but
reality is just cruel.
sonna toki itsu datte
me o tojireba
waratteru kimi ga iru
In such times,
I see you laughing
whenever I close my eyes.
itsuka eien no nemuri ni tsuku hi made
dou ka sono egao ga
taema naku aru you ni
Until the day I reach eternal sleep,
that smiling face will
have to stay with me without fail.
> the first time I head this song and reading it's translation,
I was mesmerized and lost. Inuyasha was cemented
in my mind and it's eternal summer shall not fade...

STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN


I have not posted for a few weeks yes I know. But a lot
of things happened that pushed me far from blogging.
I was busy with marking exam papers and
2 OF MY THREE KITTENS DIED within 2 weeks time.

SHIRO was the youngest and he died on my bed, on
25th August just 2 days before he would be
one month,

and this afternoon, JO GUK died beside me due to
respiratory problem. He was 6 weeks.

Now I'm only left with MIRAE and I hope
she'll last longer.

Honestly, this case of kittens dying are not
for me. My heart was broken TWICE and
I really miss them. I'm thinking of
neutering/spaying the parents so that
there'll be no more heartbreaks.
We'll see. For the time being, till
I get a lil bit happier, I won't blog.
