Brain Popcorn

Monday, May 10th, 2010 at 6:01 pm

What is a brain popcorn you ask?

It’s a piece of popcorn that reminded me enough of a brain that I kept it. For years. For I don’t know how many years but I had it before I started going out with Zena. So like…for over 6 years.

Yes, I’ve had this piece of popcorn for over 6 years, which I keep in an old Lactaid (I’m lactose intolerant) container. It’s my pride and joy, the next closest thing to a son that I have. Uhh..this is getting a bit strange.

Origami Roses

Sunday, May 9th, 2010 at 10:59 pm

One of my best…and possibly only (yeah, I’m terribad) gifts to my mother for Mother’s day was a bunch of origami roses attached to pipe cleaners.


Note: this is my attempt at a telephoto lens. Basically I just blurred the area around the focus.

It was a really girly gift…but my mom loved it so meh. I must have given it to her almost a decade ago (I learned origami roses in 2nd year uni). I wanted to take some pictures of it for this post but things didn’t work out well so all you get is this rose from my “origami rose” stock…

The origami rose was the most complicated origami thing I ever made…I remember having speed contests with the girl that taught it to me…I think I came in around 3 minutes, she was around 1 or something impossible >_< Anyways…Happy Mother’s Day!

Site Updates…sorta

Saturday, May 8th, 2010 at 12:39 pm

I realized I had completely misused the “Categories” section and used it like tags/labels…and didn’t use tags at all. I’ve gone through all my posts -_-; and rectified the issue. Ew. Rectified is an ugly word. The meaning is nice but it sounds like rectum. That’s an ugly ass word. Pun intended *ba dum dum ching* ….this is you -_-;

I like my categories a lot more now, they make a lot more sense. I’ve also included a new category, EPIC RANTS…these are my favorite posts, the ones I’ve had lingering in my head for years…the ones that always had a beginning, middle, and end, even a few years ago. They’re supposed to make you think differently about something…Sadly, I thought I had more of them…like, 10. Not 5 :( I’m disappointed…

The site progress has been going well, the only section not completed right now is Portfolio….that will take some time, I’m still trying to figure out how I want to do the layout. I’m realizing how difficult some of these pages are if I change the layout to my Naruto layout (effectively making the main space about 1/5 smaller in width, thus messing with my design). BTW. My Naruto layout has NOT been started…it’s really hard :( this one is way more artsy than my others….and it’s difficult getting the right feel for Naruto…there’s no site out there that’s designed in a Naruto-ish way…the way I want to design my site. If you have any, let me know so I can steal borrow some ideas.

Also: Regarding my last post: I have absolutely no room in my condo for another Manga series. What was I thinking. Though I did decide to get Prince of Tennis if I start another one…yes, that shall be my next series. I will probably start getting it…and figure out the space thing after. I’m sure it’ll work out. O_o
And I plan to read School Rumble and 20th Century Boys in the near future. *goes and puts that on his “To Read” list*. I’ll probably save 20th Century Boys for when I feel like something dark again.

I also got my Kirby pillow in the mail this week :) Sleeping with a star pillow is kinda awkward tho…its corners are always in my face. I forgive Kirby tho cuz he’s so cute!

I need to collect another manga series…

Friday, May 7th, 2010 at 4:47 pm

As Anime North approaches, I realize I have nothing I’m hunting for…which kind of makes going to Anime North a bit pointless…I want to start collecting a new manga series…

I’m currently collecting:
Neon Genesis Evangelion which is released every few years
Get Backers which was canceled
Naruto which I’m waiting for the Box Set for Part 2
Dragon Ball Z which is over and I have all of it

The only series I’d like to collect but aren’t are:
Initial D but Tokyo Pop ruined the names
Hikaru no Go which will probably end up being like, 200 volumes or something ridiculous…

What should I collect?
Prince of Tennis?
School Rumble?
Azumanga?

Suggestions?

Note: I’m also looking to buy:







………….hmmmm that’s about $300 worth…maybe i shouldn’t collect a new manga series -_-;

An interesting night…

Thursday, May 6th, 2010 at 12:31 am

1. My gaydar is malfunctioning. I can’t tell if someone is homosexual…like, at all. What takes people literally 3 minutes takes me 3 days…and even then, I’m not really sure.

2. I had like, every deep conversation possible tonight…it was pretty awesome…given my deep conversation dry spell, I’m very satisfied.

3. My last post did not go over well with my co-workers or Zena…some of it too dark they couldn’t even finish. I want to clarify that this blog is probably as close to Real Warren that you’d get…I’m (trying) not to filter content or write what I think people should write or think or react to. I’m writing what I feel…what I truly feel, not holding things back. I realize the mistake I might be making…Real Warren would not be accepted by society. Friends, co-workers, potential employers, random strangers…might read some of my posts and think “WTF is wrong with this guy”. And that’s not the Warren I want these people to know…not because I care what people think but because it affects my life. I don’t want to not get a job or scare my friends or co-workers because of what I write. I don’t know…I still want to continue writing the way I’ve been writing…but the world in general probably won’t ever accept Real Warren. I’m still unsure if that matters or not…

4. Regarding the last post…not to justify it…but I completely understand some of the homeless/bums aren’t there by choice, some of them are mentally challenged. Zena said that giving them food is better than giving them money…some of them might be addicts. And when she said the word “addicts”, that’s what made me then think again that the path they’ve ended up on is their own fault and I feel no sympathy for that. The mentally challenged thing…that’s a bit different I guess…but there are many who aren’t…who are where they are because of the choices they’ve made in life. I have no sympathy for that. I have no understanding for that. Sh!t happens to everyone, everywhere…some rise about it, some fail. But like school, if you fail that much, you get kicked out. Or in this case, if you fail in life…you should be…uh…kicked out…from life. Bad analogy >_< Basically, the way I see it is that they have a lack of value/worth in their lives. Who am I to judge, they challenged. But the fact is that everyone instinctively judges others all the time. We are ALL guilty of judging others in some way or another. So I don’t feel any wrong in myself judging another’s value or worth in life. I’m not intentionally causing harm to them, I just wish something unfortunate upon them. But that doesn’t mean anything though…I think my readers have to accept that I feel what and how I feel…they might not agree and that’s fine. Just accept that I think differently about this subject than others. If you can’t do that, if we can’t agree to disagree, don’t read my blog you stubborn, close minded jerkface. I don’t want you reading this. And if you still read it, don’t complain. /end rant
