I just asked my friend whether that bleached hair tips thing would look good on me, but I guess judgement is reserved until I get back in the Philippines.
Anyway, the whole point of this blog post is THIS awesome fight scene from the original Game of Death movie (The original *untainted* footage, not the butchered Robert Clouse version।):

I get the chills, I cry happy tears, I get pumped and hyper when I see that legendary battle between Bruce VS Hakeem, a modern day rendition of David and Goliath! It's rather different in comparison though, due to this:
Bruce Lee went through floor over floors (there was suppsed to be five, but they only got to film three), battling opponents and seeing thru each of their weaknesses... up until the last floor. Think: You're a very powerful martial artist, with very practical techniques that can battle any foe. What if you get to fight someone who is also powerful, uses the same techniques as you, but is a 7 feet tall giant? That's a battle against great handicaps :o Thankfully, everyone has their own weaknesses... or are they? Check the video to see the awesomeness! ;)
If I'm rich, I'll make a five-story pagoda safehouse with a martial arts bodyguard in each floor, each having their own martial arts. Then I'll confront the martial arts hero as the final battle LOL
That would be cool :P

New thoughts today!
I'm certain most people are bored over the thought of reading another person's thoughts, but brace with me. Well, maybe not. :P
I'm thinking of bleaching the ends of my hair blond so that I'll look like that man whom I idolize for totally rockin'! He's the creator of the hard rockin' awesomely cool fighting game called Guilty Gear, Daisuke Ishiwatari!:

In other news, I bought this interesting game from GameStop called "Persona 3". It started slightly slow, but when it got going, I was both amazed and nostalgic! Amazed because it's a very interesting game. Nostalgic because in the game, you're put in the shoes of a high school student! I had an awesome high school, so it's cool to have a go at it again, even if it's just in a virtual manner. I' try to recreate my old high school habits most of the time in the game, like always hanging out in malls, staying in school to hang around somewhere, eat out, and be both smart and lazy :D
Oh I don't know. It may not be able to recreate the life I had, but heck I'm having fun with the game! I'd love to play another game like this should I finish this one!
I hope my best friend goes online soon! I've been meaning to show this blog to my best friend!!

More on One-shot Manga.
Recently, I have this slight urge to keep on making these blog entries, and its probably due to my love for various "interests", and the drive to share the thoughts I couldn't simply convey in forum posts.
Setting that aside for a moment, I noticed something odd. By coincidence, I downloaded two lesbian lifestyle-themed one-shot manga, one in each day since yesterday. I'm certain it's telling me something, since my greatest best friend ever is a lesbian. No, not the stereotypical depictions and nonsense, mind you! Anyway, these two one-shot manga (one finished, the other once I'm currently reading) is more likely not the sort of reading intended for someone like me, but regardless, I find them quite touching and moving! Indeed these are the type manga I wanted to show my best friend!
The best part about what I've read is that it doesn't touch on the subject in an exploitative manner, nor create such stories with the male audience in mind. I start to see it according to many perspectives, and I seem to understand my best friend's and the manner of things she faces in life a bit more. I am ashamed to not have known about this years back, when I was still around my best friend... then again, with my annoying personality, close-mindedness and forceful manner back then, I might only learn very few good things.
But yeah I don't know. I try not to think much about it and see everything in a balanced way, which would make me see the colors of all instead of the contrasting black and white of things.
Maybe I should start being serious about posting in blogs after all! LOL

Been reading one-shot manga recently.
My opinion on one of those books:
I like it and hate it so much I love it. It provoked me to show strong emotions to it, may it be hate or love.
My opinion on another:
I read something that I think is something my best friend would definitely like, since it touches a subject that's hard to potray properly yet this book expertly does so. I believe it came from someone who knows of the subject matter first-hand withouth the sort of prejudices and stereotyping typically associated with such.
And to quote one of my forum posts:
Wow... I've been reading a few lesser known one-shot manga recently, and I find a few rather touching. It's the sort of charm you won't get from any sort of long-running manga series with many volumes, anything too popular and/or anything aimed at a younger demographics than that of mature level.
I have lots of interests, and these sort of manga is now added to my "interests" list. I dare not tell what these books I'm reading specifically but those who know me will get the idea once I tell them. I thank that download website for providing beautiful things, as well as the scanlators who was put to much trouble trying to translate, proofreading and type-setting it (is that right?)
My my, this blog I now have looks rather professional! LOL
