Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu

SHnY has a focus in its story that I've never seen before. It goes with Haruhi, a girl who is interested on aliens, espers and time travelers, but at Kyon's point of view. It's the best anime I've watched this year. (As you could notice, Suzumiya has faced on my Christmas post.)

Goal Nine
-- Be rational --
This will require a previous goal, be lazyless. I often avail things with a limited time I self impose. So, I often delegate my decisions to my unconscious. I have to be conscious and take the responsibilities of my choices.

NHK ni Youkoso!

This is the story of Satou Tatsuhiro (Remarks someone? Lol.), a college dropout who identified himself as a hikikomori. Along with conspiracy ideas, inherited from his high school senpai, he get some troubles with truths and lies, that surrounds him and the ones he creates.

Goal Eight
-- Pay attention --
I am a very distracted person. I consider, to pay attention on the words people say and what happens around me, one of the hardest goals I've chosen. It will require a lot of me and my energy in concentrating on the right thing, manage my thoughts and memory and so on. May kami-sama bless me.

Counter Strike

I've been playing Counter Strike a lot lately, since I've installed it on my pc. It's very addicting even by playing only with bots! The dudes are not showing their faces to play, so I have no option left.

Goal Seven
-- Train my memory --
Everyone knows how memoryless I am. I intend to train so I can have a better memory.

X-Mas travel

December 26th. Time to go home. That was my thought since the begining. Put my clothes into my bag, stay on my uncle's beach house until Christmas and then, after taking some nap, travel back home. Well.. That's not exatly what happened.
I got all my stuffs and traveled along with my parents, Luana, her boyfriend Raphael, my uncle's girlfriend Luiza and me. The car is big enought to be able to comfortly place everyone and some other stuffs. It was 3:00 am and we left home. I hadn't slept until then. I planned go there while I sleep, but Luiza started to talk with me. We kept talking all along the way to Boissucanga and my sleep flew away. We arrived and I could finally take.. a nap! While I was resting, everyone went to beach and arrived before lunch and that was also the time I woke up. That's when I could notice who was there. The first one to go down to lounge was Antonio Henrique, "Someone's son who we also still don't know", Norio, my uncle, said. This person was Imaculada, Érica's hostess on the house she stayed from the time when she was living and studying veterinary at Lavras. Érica and Sabrina are my uncle's sons and, thereof, my cousins. Their mom, Estela, and Sabrina's daughter, Iasmin, was there too. We all went to the beach in the afternoon.
It was cloudy and sun didn't light either the sand, either the sea. It was still possible to make use of the sea, but it wasn't very hot. I've just got into the salty water after I walked all along the beach to make my legs back to training. It was harder, tho, to run there due to the pressure, sand and all other conditions on the environment that I'm not used to have on my usual training place. Back to house again, my another cousin, Edson, was up, as Tiomi aunt and her daughter, Danielle. After prepare dinner and eat it, we went to Maresias, to take some ice cream to some and Açaí to others. We came back to Boissucanga and finished the day.
I discovered it was still unable to get a connection with my cel phone.
On Sunday, Sabrina and Ias had to go back to São Paulo, so they went to the beach on the morning and near lunch, we went to beach and on the way, they got on bus station. At beach, my sister, Heloisa, called and joined us because she had to stay at São Paulo and had to go by bus. After that, we went to house, after buying stuffs to prepare Christmas Eve meal. I played some Shogi with the dudes and soon, we celebrated Christmas.
On December 25th, we all went to the waterfall near there and traveled to Ilha Bela island. It is a very nice place, but it was already on the end of the afternoon and we couldn't enjoy too much of it. At night, we had dinner at a downtown restaurant.
A day after that, my mom woke me up to go back, but my uncle invited me to stay one more day, so my parent's car wouldn't go back so full. I thought for some time and decided to agree. Then, they come back and again, I went to beach in the morning and played shogi all afternoon.
Finally, I came back, today. Érica lead Antonio Henrique and Imaculada to get their road back to Lavras. Edson, Tiomi and Dani headed straight to my home, my uncle left Luiza at her house and headed to mine. So, as Dani had to buy some clothes, she, her mom and mine did some shoppings, while my uncle went to his home and Edson stayed and played some games here.

Goal Six
-- Be socializable --
I've been not very socializable for some time, althought I've met a lot of people. I've been very closed lately and what I intend to do is to be more friendly to people I don't know and avoid scare people.

X-Mas

Merry Christmas!!

Janiliz

Janiliz is my best friend over-country. I met her by playing at iRO, more than 2 years ago with her sister, Lucy. I didn't talk to her so much at first, but our friendship grew as the time passed. It can eventually not be reciprocal and it can not seem to be sometimes, but I love her. ^^

Goal Five
-- Avoid lazyness --
It's a curse! To be lazy makes me loose a lot of good stuffs from life that I could deeply enjoy if I weren't too lazy. And besides that, I can also study more, read more manga, watch more series and hang more out with friend.

Massae

Happy birthday to Massae! I knew her at my old and beloved high school throught some friends. She is very nice and friendly! ^^

Goal Four
-- Better dressing --
Well, I've been avoiding to choose good clothes to go anywhere, even if it's an special event. I'll buy new clothes when possible because I kinda am lack of them.

Travel

I've been preparing stuffs for my short travel to my uncle's beach house. after that, I played some counter together with my sis' bf.

Goal Three
-- Take notes --
I use to forget about my stuffs, so I'll take notes about everything I think is important for further analysis.

Gaia Mule account

I've been talking to Emy about sharing Gaia itens today. We discussed about it because we have a lot of itens we don't use. Well, she has a very large variety of itens while I have a lot of the same OMFG item. I changed that variety to bet on a item inflaction some time ago, actually. At first we're only going to share our itens to wide our variety, but I can't help so much by now. If we eventually change and bet on get some profit, I think I can help a bit more. n.n;

Goal Two
-- Time to sleep and time to wake up --
This can be something very natural to everyone who sleep and wake up, but for me, it's kinda unruled. Most of people always sleep at the same time and wake up at the same time. So did I. But since 2001, it's been very awkward to keep a regular sleep time due to my addictness on internet. It's another goal, but I'll write about it later. Well, my goal is to sleep always when possible at 8~10pm and wake up at 4~6am. It's very audacious from a person who currently doesn't have a fixed time to sleep and wake up. Sometime I don't feel well because of this and, from an experience I did by having a fixed sleep time, I could feel better than in the first scene. I'm going to put my effort on it and always try to remember about it over all the next year.

Goals

I've been thinking on several goals for the next year. Most of them depends only upon myself and my will to do that. But basing on critical times I had in past, some of these goals can be not considered, depending on the circunstances. Although the but's, I'll keep them in mind as a way for me to be a better person, in my current point of view, but not limited to it.
I've been thinking on a number of goals and I've figured out that there's 10 days left for the new year. So, guess how many goals am I going to list? ;) I'll post each on in each day, starting now, and try to explain the goal, the points I want to get with them and how to do that. They won't have any specific order or criteria for listing. Well, here goes the first one.

Goal One
-- Be a better person --
This is a subjective goal. How can I manage to be a better person? By keeping this in mind, my actions can change and I can feel myself a better person whenever I make a choice that I wouldn't just make it random. It would also make sense to all the other goals, as all of them has this goal within.

Mochi

By watching a scene where some stuffs for kagami mochi preparation has showed, at NHK ni Yokoso, a glimpse from past has come to my mind. Almost one year ago, I went to my uncle's beach house and we prepared some mochi for everyone. It's a japanese tradition where a rice cake is fried and then, a mix of shoyu with sugar is put over it. It's awesome!! I wish I could eat it right now! =)

To be on the horns of a dilemma

I've been thinking about my next year goals and I, again, also thinking over the time I spend just by staring, daydreaming and wainting something could happen while I keep logged at Gaim (client I use to log on MSN Messenger, AIM, Yahoo and ICQ account). I could do a lot of stuffs if I could gather all that time and apply for something produtive, like studying, programming or watching a film. "Damn, I have to stop with it and, by doing so, I also could test my will power.", I thought. But wouldn't it be too selfish, since I have this as the main contact way, due to the very large distance? Maybe I'm being too severe with them and myself. So, a better way would be to limit as much as I can do and avoid sparing too much on my involuntary IM thoughts digress, and I could still talk to my friends. =)
Concerning the title, I was looking for something related to dilemma word. So I found this phrasal verb, that means both choices of a dilemma are not as good as if I could choice both or none. As I want to keep it into my mind, I made it this post title, so It can be easier for me to remember. Maybe this can happen more often than it can appear. So, don't mind if a title doesn't seems to fit on a post content. =P

Densha Otoko

Everton brought, after three months of hard work on arubaito, this j-drama that has just finished to go on tv when he had to come back to Brazil.
It's about an otaku who saved a girl from a molester and, with some help, his wish to be with her. What makes Densha Otoko interesting is that the main character represents a stereotype which has become more present in Japan over the last years, specially over the last decade.

Writing

I've just felt on a urge for writing! Haha. I think I'm going to write in a natural way, as things comes into my mind.
This happened as I visited my friend's (now called as Aerith) blog. I think she started a blog almost at the same time as mine! I've just noticed about it. But she always wrote there and the time between her posts wasn't so big. She made me want to post too!!
There were some stuffs I wanted to post, actually. But I was very lazy of busy to do it, so yeah. u.u That's because I always want to write a long text to look cool, but it's not a good thing to do. At least to me because my memory doesn't allow me store stuffs for a long time. Maybe it's lack of training.
I need to post a list of stuffs I plan for next year and stuffs I've watched lately.
It's all for now.
