Two-sides of the Same Coin

A long time ago, on a fan-site I went to very often, currently on a slow renovating phase, there was a member that got banned, who was very arrogant and up-tight, and would suck up to mods and admins on the site, while at the same time give others a hard time. The member in this post shall be called Alba, in reference to the character from Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth Quercus Alba (Theme: The Enemy Who Surpasses the Law).

Few years ago, Alba was a kind person, very greeting and welcoming to others. At that time, the fan-site was trying to keep fans of an online game together, during and after the game was still around. He, me, and a few others took part in a little pod casting group, which only lasted under a year.

When the game resurfaced a second time under a new company, there was disappointment in the air on all the fans. It eventually closed down again, because it was a failure. The rebirth of the game was the same as before, however worse than the original. It died in months.

After that, the pod casting died out. This is when things gone sour for everyone.

Big Life Bomb Shell

Mom brought up a huge load of life on me... car insurance fee (won't be able to pay), license renewal (may be able to pay including required current inspection, repairs may very if needed), get my property tax form for 2011 (which for some reason did not get nor for 2012, will find out later. Depending on the price on the tax and how much they usually cost based on car year, 98 for me, may not be able to pay) and then the big one that has me shaken up right now... getting a job that pays more than this "job" i have of running the sound board since the payment is always TBD and rare... sigh... I'm not gonna lie, that is going to be the most scariest thing for me... about as scary as a kid first going to a daycare or school, seeing all new faces, scared and may start to cry wanting their parents.

Two Party Protesters, Two Different Reactions

Warning: This topic is a sensitive subject. That being said please prevent use of any arguing or belligerent behavior. I appreciate you to read with an open mind and understanding, regardless of your race and view of another race.

This is not for the fate of heart nor children, regardless of race, to know about without adult supervision and understanding.

This is one of few things that's been on my mind for a while.

A friend, after reading this entry, referenced to this bible verse. 1 John 5:19, "We know we originate with God, but the whole world is lying in the [power of the] wicked one." That should give you an idea of what this entry is about, metaphorically speaking.

I am a Genius! Hidden/Secret Mine Shaft Entrance

Idea: Want to make a mineshaft under my house.

Problem: Want to make the entrance look inconspicuous (despite it's single player) and not stand out when not in use and the switch is removed.

Solution: Use sticky pistons to push and pull the block and a piston to push the block up. Use a NOT gate (red stone torch).

Problem: How to get down without breaking neck, and able to get back up.

Solution: Water Elevator! Ladders will only prevent blocks from being moved or get detached from the wall.

Problem: Water will disappear if there is a solid block on the source water block.

Solution: Put the source block one block away from the path of the solid block and sticky piston. Place it under a block and to the side.

Had a strange dream... trying to piece it together as they all appear to be related to each other somehow.

Eventful Day, Part 2: Idiot Driver

After all those events with the mic, I head my way home.

When I turn onto the street I live, after about a 30 minute drive, I notice a red car is behind me gaining on my tail. Eventually this drivers ends up RIGHT NEXT TO ME on the left side, going in the same direction were the street narrows down to a 1 lane for both directions. So I pull over to let this guy drive by, and he hocks his horn at me. He was right on my blind spot when I pulled over for him to drive by, but after he hocked his horn at me, I go back on the road and drove at mild-high speed (35 on 25) to get a little distance then reduced my speed to 25, just to get this idiot off of me!

Eventually he made a left turn to, I believe, a local townhouse estate, which is an infamous place. Pizza Hut doesn't deliver there at night anymore, they kept getting mugged.

I gave this guy the right to pass me since he was right next to me on the left side, which was very scary, but he denied it so I took it back.

Eventful Day, Part 1: Great to Bad to Good

Well my day today was very eventful!

Today I had to go to church to be on the sound board for a funeral. So I dressed appropriate for it: Black Slacks, Black Shirt with dark blue "pixel-like" stars on it, and of course my hat (It's black, and I just look good with it on... without it I look like something from a horror movie.)

The service went well, despite I was a little nervous. First time attending a funeral at the church AND to run the sound board for.

"Salina"

I woke up in the afternoon from a deep dream. I don't recall what it was about... but the last thing that came to me was a name, "Salina".

Some Quotes of Wisdom

A long time ago, few years ago, I made a few notes on a windows program called Sticky Note--it came with the new laptop I got, last one died out (mother board).

I haven't opened up the program in a long time... as what I written was too painful to read, however couldn't delete them.

I just now opened it up... and here's what they say. (Those with no quotes are made by me.)

"Sadness and Sorrow"

By Hyrika

The King of Sorrow, or KoS for short, is a character from Klonoa 2: Lunatea's Veil. He only shows at the end of the game, not much is really said about him. However he makes silhouette appearances in the game, asking for help.

He lives alone in a kingdom that was forgotten in the world of Lunatea, covered by the ocean--the veil. (It's been a long time since I've played this game.)

I found this picture from this video, including the song "Sadness and Sorrow v2" (link in the description for the song.) I also found a remake of the song, "Sadness and Sorrow Remake". Seeing this picture and listening to the song, preferable the remake, really hits you hard. It really gives you an image of him wondering around in his forgotten and bizarre kingdom. Wanting something, looking for help--he gets help by entering Klonoa's dreams, calling for help, but not revealing himself who he is.

One: Place, Memory, Pain

By Ark

One Place,

One Memory,

One Pain.

This is a new picture I found. I'm sure everyone has a place that brings back a memory, and maybe bring some pain to those memories. Happy moments that went away and longing for those again, wishing they never stopped or continue to last forever, because they made you happy and calm inside.

Fireflies

By Kaizy

Seeing this picture while listening to "Fireflies" by Owl City really brings a deep impact to you. Would like to hear from people what they see when that song is played at the sametime see this picture.

(In case you can't see the video due to Vevo's restrictions: "Fireflies" by Owl City (Lyrics))

Troubled Waters

by Mrsaturn123

This is a picture of Lucy, from Bittersweet Candy Bowl, falling head first into a body of water. Lucy cannot swim, and also has a phobia of water--lakes, rivers, oceans (fine on beaches), etc.--after an incident when she was a kitty. (Chapter 30: Troubled Waters) Looking at this picture, and at the same time listening to Linkin Park's "My December", really hits a person hard.

Listening to the song's lyrics and scrolling down on the picture (in full size) very slowly really prints an image in your mind of how she is in this picture.

This is what I picture. She's walking by a river, 10 feet away from the edge of it, hugging herself, tears falling, trying to hide her emotions of crying. She may have had another memory loop of Mike, who have been friends since childhood and an old crush, wishing they were still friends and that he would talk to her again.* She looks at the river, slowly walks towards it, tighten her hands on her arms, due to getting close to the water. She gets a vision of the water rising like a wave, to five stories high. She panics, and then faints, falling forward towards the river, doing deeper into the river.

You may have a different or similar image than mine, but no matter what image you get, as long as you vision one while listening to that song, it'll be a deep impact.

This image also reminds me of the intro from Kingdom Hearts.
