LOTAL NA CNN ITO. GUSTO KO LANG TALAGA IPARATING ANG AKING SPECIAL BULLETIN AT CONJECTURES (SEE BELOW)

Stir-fried Random n. (alt. stir-fried mumble) Term used for the best dish of many of those hackers who can cook. consists of random fresh veggies and meat wokked with random spices. Tasty and economical.

 
 
Salamat po kay Vec para sa files. Mamyang gabi ay tatrabahuhin ko na ang mga ito.
 
It's the last weekend before end of classes. Kagabi, as per the recommendation ng teacher namin para hindi kami mahirapan, sinulat ko na ang final essay namin na part nung exam namin sa language class. Tapos non, minemorise ko ang laman at tinest ang sarili ko. Okay naman, kaya ko ng isulat from my head. Tapos non tumawag si Agham, at nag-usap muna kami.
 
Mamyang gabi, speech writing, which is really essay translation. Maaaring pinahihirapan ko ang sarili ko by dealing with a significant cultural topic, since most ng classmates ko ay personal thoughts lang nila at mga things they enjoyed in Japan ang isusulat, while I'm working on literary development parallels. Bahala na.
 
 
WE INTERRUPT THIS PROGRAM FOR A BRIEF ANNOUNCEMENT
 
ANIME JA NAI
 
Kaninang umaga, masyado ng naging pointless yung Saturday afternoon existence ko kaya nag-deploy ako for Nipponbashi. And what a good expedition it was. Dapat meaningless trip lang for browsing ang balak ko, so hindi ko sinunod ang standard exploration route ko. Nipponbashi is apparently bigger than I once thought it was. Medyo weird lang ang structure niya kaya na miss ko yung other half dati. Parang dalawang blocks na ang connection ay via their corners.
 
So I browsed some playstation Gundam books. No sign of any Z Gundam cheats. Nag-check ng mga second-hand shops. Nothing truly interesting. Then I passed by the outside of a Joshin shop. Mayroon daw plastic model kits sa 2nd floor. So pumasok ako. Indeed, meron nga, kaso walang Gundam. Weird. May Eva, may mga classic Giant Robots at Macross, pero walang kahit anong Gundam. So lumabas ulet ako.
 
Outside, there was this giant poster of the GP01Fb MG Model, tapos may sign sa baba. GUNDAM's, it said, and there was a map below it. Sinundan ko ang mapa. And there it was, a building called Gundam's. Inside, they sold nothing but Gundam related products, from plastic model kits, t-shirts, games, classic CD single jackets, etc.
 
So pumasok ako. Puta, ang sikip. Ang daming tao. Hindi naman malaki ang lugar, pero puno. They had plastic model kits from every series, along with displays of painted and assembled models (ang galing ng MG Desert Zak). At each corner of the place, there was a Gundam series running, namely ZZ, Endless Waltz, 08th MS Team, and one continously running plastic model kit ads. Tapos sa far side, nag-rurun yung pinaka-recent episode ng 08th MS team, kaya't nanood ako. Then I noticed someone playing Z Gundam (badly) on a playstation setup. So nung natalo siya at tumayo, naglaro ako, while a couple of kids were watching behind my shoulder.
 
After about an hour (of watching 08th MS team, playing Z Gundam, and browsing around), pumunta ako sa MG section at binili ang GP01Fb. On the way out, I looked at the Gundam EZ-8 - Hindi exceptional, mukhang souped-up RX-79 lang, tapos may nakita akong classic deluxe models nung Z, Mk.II, at ZZ (the fully transformable toys). Basta, nakakalula yung store. IT's the Gundam paradise. Pati yung mga files at spray paints ni Disyo meron. Dadalhin nalang kita dito, Agham,sa sunod na pagpunta mong Osaka. O di kaya, maaaring meron din nito sa Akihabara sa Tokyo (with some link to Joshin probably).
 
Isesend ko na lang ang GP01Fb sa Monday.
 
AND NOW BACK TO OUR STANDARD PROGRAM
 
GT V
 
L> Ano ba? May GT V ba talaga?
 
O, eto, i-fafinalize ko na ang gusto kong mangyari dito para wala ng atrasatrasan. Mayroong GT V, at hindi kasali ang Jailhousers. They haven't been contributing to its implementation, at hindi ako naniniwala sa commitment na iyan. Besides, bakit tayo magpapaluGE ng enjoyment natin. Kung may mag-poprotesta, sabihin na ngayon, at ma-resolve na ito.
 
My rationale on this is that since were organizing the game, if we're not happy with someone joining, hindi natin kelangan payagan siyang sumali. I don't want to play hypocrite and enjoy a GT with the Jailhousers whose attitudes are confusing at the very least. Mag-GT tayo, tapos kung magtanong sila eh di sabihin natin hindi sila kasali.
 
ZA PUREISUTEISHON
 
H> Magkano nga pala ang bili mo sa Playstation mo,
 
Ganoon na nga, 18000 yen +tax. Kaso isa lang ang controller at walang memory card pa yung price na iyon. Tapos ayaw nilang magbigay ng libreng game. Pero ang tawag nila dito Playstation Dual Shock, tapos may analog mode yung controller. Pero for some reason, ayaw umandar nung analog mode sa Z Gundam.
 
GEx FORUM
 
H> Deh. Hindi ka ba naghahanap ng alternate text?
 
Ahhhhh <NAzi Surplus Store Owner> Iyan ba yung itsura nung THE WORD na iyon? Ang lotal pala. Mas nakakatakot yung unang pag-imagine ko sakanya eh. Yung pala, dapat nakakatawa lang.
 
L> Naka attach dapat sa CNN na ito ang ZIP file ng lahat ng previous GEx mail.
 
Gusto niyo rin ba ng kopya nito Hec and Vec? Kasi kung hindi naman, baka mas-mabuting private mail with attachment na lang, para hindi bumigat ang load ng CNN. Lalo na in the case of Hector and Vector, since parehong terminal naman yung ginagamit nila. Gusto ko ngayong mabasa ito talaga dahil sinabi mong may mahuhuling pagka-presumido ang Jailhousers.
 
L> Mas complex ang implications nito kaysa sa Omen Project.
 
Ano ba talaga ang kuwento ng Omen Project dapat? Malakas ang religious references sa The Hub as a setting. Puwedeng i-metaphorize into something pero hindi ko pa alam kung ano. MAsarap kalaban ang Diyos, parang Eva ang kuwento.
 
Lotal ito presumido, pero napa-conjecture ako kagabi while trying to sleep. Yung first return of Saint, bakit parang GEx lang ang hinabol niya yata? Kasi nagsulat siya ng CNN ulet pagkatapos ni Alagao sabihin na interesado siya doon sa GEx. Tapos nung pinatay ang GEx, nag send ng notice of excommunication. Is it really lambastos he's against? Or was it something linked to the original THE VANISHING? Pero kung sabagay, he claims lambastos din ang kinaasaran niya noon. Conjectures lang ito, pero hindi ko gusto ang implications kung totoo eh.
