It turns out the computer noise is coming from my graphics card! :o

-
So I looked into my computer issues (read blog post below for more detail) and it's not my hard drive or computer fans after all!  It's the graphics card!

I am amazed at the timing of when my computer decides to crap out on me.  It always has to be right before some kind of vacation or when I plan to use my computer a lot.  ( - ___ - )

It's so funny when I think back because when I first heard that motor noise, I was literally doing something like this:

In my desperation, derka derka! 8D

So I finally finished watching the k-drama 49 Days and it was so SAD!!!  Honestly, I was expecting the happily-ever-after kind of ending but the writers decided to do a 180 on me and create this ending that was the complete opposite of what I was expecting.  With that said, I was bawling my eyes out for the last few episodes;


I'm surprised my eyes didn't swell up that much the next day. :/

I'll probably be writing a review for it once I get my graphics card in the mail.  I hope it doesn't take too long.  I'm still amazed at how great that drama was and how it just drew me into the story.  It seemed like I couldn't really predict much and it threw in a lot of surprises for me.  And the BIGGEST catch was that there was absolutely NO kiss scenes whatsoever between the main characters!!!!!! ( @ O @ ) <@#$^%^#$%%?????!!!)
.... and yet I could feel how much they loved each other.  I feel like this is a drama that isn't tainted by anything physical and it's all emotional and you can see it in the characters' actions and just through how they express themselves with their eyes.....  *Sigh...* I loved it sooooo much and I can't wait to write a review for it~!

Today I went around to different thrift store because I'm trying to find a plastic dresser/drawer for some of my clothes.  I failed to find any though so I'll probably end up buying it from Target like I do with everything else.  xP

I had to order a new graphics card even though I dusted my current one; It's still making this annoying sound and it's sort of  letting off some kind of exhaust...  Well,  I'll have to wrap this post up soon or I might die from gas poisoning, lol.

Anime Food!: Brock's Cream Stew

-
Image
Hello again!  My apologies for taking so long to make another 'Anime Food' post.  Enjoy! During my childhood days of watching Pokemon, I would often see Brock cooking this white stew thing.  It would look so yummy but I had no idea what it was..  And even though my entire family and extended family was Japanese, none of them ever made something like this.  (T__T)  The closest thing I got was corn chowder. Only recently did I discover that it's called cream stew and luckily, it's quite the easy recipe. ^^ I remember the very first time I made this.  I used a cream stew mix pack from the store (the one that has the blocks that you melt in the pot).  That turned out pretty bad so I highly recommend people make this one from scratch.  It's really does taste so much better this way.  I'm lazy so instead of having the pretty diced pieces of carrot, I threw in some baby carrots.  XD Close up ;3 I found this recipe ...

Why does Lightning look so different in FFXIII Lightning Returns? [SPOILERS-!]

-

I finally finished the game Lightning Returns recently and zomg, why does her face look so different?  I mean, she looks like she got plastic surgery. Before I begin, I'd like to point out that I am not criticizing the game in its entirety.  This is solely about the change in Lightning's hair and facial design.  The game play of Lightning Returns has nothing to do with this. :) I didn't really notice her face change until I beat the game and watched the ending CG animation scene.  (pic above is from the opening CG scene) I was a bit disappointed that the animators weren't consistent in her facial design, especially when it was so beautiful to begin with. Here's some compare/contrast pics I found. This one is of the CG animation for FFXIII, FFXIII-2, and FFXIII Lightning Returns. And here's the cutscene animation.  It's a bit more difficult to tell the difference in the cutscene animation unless you look closely. The hair...

I dyed my hurr!: Kao Liese Bubble Hair Color, Milk Tea Brown

Don't make fun of my fingers, I already know they're short and fat! lol My hair is really stubborn.  No matter what hair dye I use to lighten it, the results are almost always the same.  Even when my hair is already lightened, it somehow still manages to retain that same coppery brown color... In this case, I seemed to have gotten the 'generic' result for "Dark color hair..." I dyed my virgin Asian black/dark brown hair and here are the results:   Window lighting. (Somehow this always alters the color)  Indirect daylight lighting  Bathroom lighting Box color to actual hair comparison in low light.  Seems like it was right after all.  xP On an everyday basis, my hair color looks like a cross between window lighting and indirect daylight lighting. I was honestly freaked out at first because my hair initially looked like it was slightly bleached orange.  But after a few days, it darkened down to what i...
