Hot as frick

It's been so HOT these days...  It's so bad that it's hard to get to sleep....

I don't have a themostat in my room but I'm guessing it must be in the high 80's since it's usually somewhere in the 90's during the day.  What sucks more is that there's no breeze!  Mother nature, why must you be so cruel?!  D:

I've been spending most of my days job hunting online and just trying to save $$$ really.  I'm putting my foot down to not push myself so hard at work because believe it or not, working at a department store with clothing is more strenuous than one may think.  I had an awesome talk with one of my coworkers last night (who actually talks with me) about how it sucks so much to work in women's clothing.  There's lots of times where I feel like I'm an alien since I can't seem to connect with anyone.  She reminded me that I might not be from another planet after all. x3

A couple of days ago, I had a "never again" moment where I somehow agreed to work an 8 hour shift in my home department (u know, the one with tons of clothes).  It must have been my money hungry nature that prompted me to do that because it was a holiday and so I thought, 'Yay, extra holiday pay!!!" 

So I did get holiday pay but the amount I got never would have changed whether I worked 4 hours or 8 hours.  Much to my dismay, I should have just told my manager that I'll stick to my 4 hour shift.  I know I told myself before that I'll never work a 7 hour shift in that area again but it seems I had to learn yet another lesson: Not even for holidays because it won't make a difference.

I don't think I got to sleep last night until around 3am.  My poor Scruffy would climb out of bed and lay himself flat on the wood floor since it was so hot. image

I'll stop talking about how hot it is right now.  It's just making me think about it more.  XD

I finally got to make hayashi rice!  I graduated from hayashi rice noob-hood and bought the right box mix.

 Went to the local Japanese market and this was the only option.  Kinda disappointing but whatev's.

It turned out really yummy although I've still got a long way to go on presentation.

Back to me trying to save money, it can be pretty difficult since I do like to shop, I just have to suppress it by finding other things to do that's well, free.  Unfortunately for me, that's mostly being a couch potato and watching TV or anime or lazing around and reading manga.  Which is why I started making these brief anime reviews with all the new anime I've picked up.  I don't know if I'll make one for manga since I read so many.  Maybe if I could find a way to find certain categories and collect enough titles to fit into that.

I bought a couple new circle lenses and BB creams online so I'll see if I can post some reviews on those.  There's also the new CC cream trend that's been going on for a while but I don't think I'm a fan of this one.  I tried the Tony Moly CC cream and it's not all that great.  I'll post a review for that too.

I'll end this blog with a funny meme of Levi Heichou I found, I hope everyone is having a nice week!:


 If they kill him off I'll be so PO'd.

It's the same here. You look out the window and it seems alright but you go outside and you're sweating buckets!!

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

Anime Food!: Brock's Cream Stew

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 on Little Japan Mama's rec

Movie Review: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows pt 1 & 2

Hooray for the 100th post~! (^0^) I finally got to watching the last installment of the Harry Potter series (The Deathly Hallows Pt2) last night with my dad (and may I add that he was so loud, especially on the quiet parts of the movie, I even had to elbow him and tell him to be quiet... And then he's laugh at inappropriate times, so embarrassing, thank God it was dark). Sorry to say but after viewing it for the first time, I really prefer Pt1. I don't know why, maybe it's because I liked the scenery better or those particular scenes opposed to the 2nd part of the movie. My favorite scenes were the one with the doe patronus and Harry & party running down the streets of London and when they infiltrated the ministry. I'd have to watch the last Hp movie again to give a better review because sometimes when I watch the movie again, I have a better impression of it. The last movie was full of effects and flare. I was trying REALLY hard not to compare it to th
