Hm, it's morning. Slept on and off and spent much of the night just doing this or that. Looking at some of the people's lives I know of through facebook was resoundingly depressing. Is it that time of the year? Its like the whole world is coming down with an epidemic and it's just eating away at people. I'll rant about that to myself later. Anyway.

I decided getting in shape was one way to take my mind off things but I probably overdid it by walking around in the middle of the night for about seven or eight miles. It's not really too much of a deal, I used to walk everywhere to get around before and it barely phased me, however I walked all the way to downtown. Feeling a bit nostalgic, it still the same place I used to walk through. Slightly dangerous these days though. I might do something similar tonight but I'm weighing my options. Still looking for my five pound weights I used to wear around my ankles too. I just miss those things.

My legs are a bit sore but meh, the pain helps a bit. I could work on my arms tonight too, dunno haven't figured this whole thing out. I checked my weight out, it's more or less the same, about 140 which should be healthy but according to my doctor I should weigh more given my height. I really don't understand it too well but its just how it seems to be. My metabolism is still in effect though I am noticing a little bit of weight here and there. I mean it's not so bad but I dunno, I feel a bit uncomfortable with it. Hm... I should plan something with this.

D had me on the wiifit and it said I was underweight too. Neal doesn't do that so much so y'know, gamer thing. It says he's kinda pudgy but I dunno. I mean I'm the one carrying about three or four pounds of change in my pockets. Not counting the chain from my belt loop. Hm. I feel like today I want to change myself; change myself into something...

I'm feeling slightly like the old me, and maybe I can use that to get my mind off of things. The me that despite appearing happy is full of spite, sarcasm, and rage. I can feel that old laughter welling within me. I can use this sort of thing, it's rather welcome. Hmhm.... yes this is something I can use. Plotting... my mind is plotting.

I've missed this feeling, oh so very much.

- 怪盗キッド

Hm, I only seem to update this whenever I can't organize my thoughts into something coherent. What a bother. Obviously my thoughts are scattered today and have been for the last few days. This feeling is consuming me and I feel as though maybe I'm making it too difficult for myself. There's not much of a need to go into description of this, this feeling is just... murky. It bothers the hell out of me and despite acting outwardly "fine" it's ebbing away at my thoughts when I'm left to myself. Such an annoying feeling.

Thankfully found a space to rant and rave and never let anyone else see it. I feel slightly better about it; but I'll keep ranting here. Maybe I'm just annoyed with myself. Trying to analyze oneself is a pain, soul searching is just as unproductive. I've been like this for days and even I'm running out of ideas of what I should do to calm this feeling. Feelings would be more like it.

I've asked a couple of my ex-girlfriends for some insight into this and myself and all I seem to be turning up is snake eyes. Advice from some other sources is unavailable, and a few I can't even ask this of them. So back to square one right? Christ.

I really do wish life had an answer sheet for this sort of feeling, so I might rid myself of all these negative emotions that have been swirling around me lately. I mean, I've hardly done any (actions) thing or even faces these last few days. Man I can't seem to understand anything and its bothering the crap out of me. I can't even be honest these days.

This feels even worse than those times back during 1998 and 1999. All that negativity, all that.... (sigh) I really don't want to go back to that time. It feels a bit better typing all this out and all, so maybe I'm just hoping for a miracle. Or a sign.

My belief in a single "god" is such that I believe that all religions, all their gods exist in one form or another in some sort of spiritual habitat. Being Buddhist, I don't pray to any of them, I pray that I find my own way through this eight fold path. This continuous suffering humanity has to endure and hopefully reach an enlightened place. Thinking of it that way takes the edge of what would otherwise be an unbearable feeling. Meditation sounds good, exercise tonight sounds good as well. Perhaps I'll find my answer tonight; though I may not like what I hear. For now, I must clear my mind and let all these negative feelings go. Slowly. Slowly...

My heart is slowing, I can feel it... just a calm... I want more of this... I can slowly feel everything leaving. Calm...calm....calm.... My answer will come. Just... not yet. Hopefully this little bit of meditation will allow me to calm this pounding in my mind and body. It's all I can ask for.

Isn't he just awesome?

My nephew, a terribly happy baby. Just wanted to post these so Momo-chan can squeal over them. She loves that baby. Oh, and here's another one. ^o^



Shopping cart mayhem~

He looks like he's looking at cereal like a champ. Or hungry. Probably hungry. He's a lot more obedient than his cousin (also another baby from my cousin's sister). The other one's a real loud one when his parents aren't holding him. At least with JT (this baby) he's happy with just about everything. Hurhur. Anyway hope you enjoy the pictures Momo-chan. n.n Bigger ones are in my photobucket album. =D

Simply put, I can't sleep. I've been trying for the last four hours and I haven't been able to pass out. I'm not hungry, not thirsty, and bored out of my mind. I've read a number of manga, watched some dramas, listened to some music, and even started writing a bunch of misshapen ideas that I thought were good at the time. I'm yawning, my brain says "hey you should sleep" but the rest of me is wide awake. Grah this is a terrible feeling. Anyway I'm happy about a couple of things recently, got a new set of gloves for my WoW character from the boss. Helped out a bit with the guild while I was at it and saw some nice things on the test server. I miss Momo-chan a lot but I figure she's just busy with her own stuff. ^^ I love her muchly.

Ugh really, I hate being this awake, I'm probably going to go downstairs and sit around where it's colder and hope I fall asleep or something. Really, being awake right now near five in the morning bites. Kid out.

Ah  Kamen Rider Decade, only at five episodes has already become one of my favorite series. Momo-chan's got me watching some K and J dramas; on the Korean side of things is Hana Yori Dango's Korean version while for the J-drama is Mei-chan no Shitsuji. ...I've also noticed at least two Kamen Riders in that series, respectively the brothers played by Hiro Mizushima and Takeru Satou (respectively Kamen Rider Kabuto and Kamen Rider Den-O). I was quite pleasantly surprised that Ryoutarou was the younger brother of Tendou. (cackles) Currently though I'm trying to work on my writing as well as locate a job. I've gotten some positive reviews on some fanfiction I did about last year so I've been trying to think up something for fun that people may enjoy. Anyone can check it out here.

Anyway I haven't been doing too much, just what I can so I can get a job. It's a hard process these days but it'll work out somehow. At least that's what I believe. At the moment, I'm watching TV with my younger brother. It's amusing. Well back to writing and eating. I see some Full Metal Panic episodes in my future as well. Mwahahaha.

- 怪盗キッド

Can't remember if I'm spelling that word correctly or not; my brain hasn't been exactly the best friend at these moments. Haven't spoken to Momo-chan for a few days for one reason or another; usually meaning we aren't on at the same times for the last few days. Been bored but been trying to occupy myself with my usual hobbies. Also haven't had much energy these days; maybe it's that spring fever or something (I know there's one laziness one that kicks in during the spring, I just forgot what it's called). A few friends made it into my facebook stuff, which was nice. A few of them I met through other people and such; though the more unusual one was an ex girlfriend. I guess I do leave off on a friendly note with most of them.

My brain's pretty mushed right now; really don't feel like moving much either. My jaw's better thankfully, those two trips to the dentist weren't as bad as I thought. Momo-chan worries me a bit since I haven't talked to her and her facebook thingie is ominous but I haven't had a chance to call simply because I don't really have a way to, at least, until tomorrow. Need to set up the phone and all that later on. (sigh) So much to do, too little time and all that. Maybe I'll just let all these feelings leave me if I sleep it away. Maybe I'm just worried about nothing. I hope I am.

Getting my computer up and running. Ol' Victory Convoy is gonna get replaced by my brother's old system which I'm currently working on to be better than what it should be. Convoy's gonna go to my parents (so my mother can stop pestering me whenever I take this rig over here to Neal's place) while Ki's old computer is gonna get revamped into something workable. I haven't decided on a name for it though and Kaitou is out of the question. That's my laptop's name. ^^

Anyway I managed to score a Terabyte HD for pretty cheap and the new video card I have will uh, destroy just about anything in its way. That's something to look forward to. I'm currently moving the contents of my drives over so that I can just format Convoy and give him a nice, clean start with my mother. ...which I expect to be virus infested at some point cause she doesn't clean out her system stuff. The old man just stays away from computers at home so no need to worry about him.

I'm expecting five Gundam model kits in the 1/100 and Master Grade catagories; gotta get some tools to uh adjust it so I can mod them later on. Ah so much to do, so little time.

Anyway Amalgam peoples were freaking out cause they thought I was gonna shut down the site for some reason or another without any warning. I'd personally like to slap whoever started the rumor, simply because having four or five people spamming my goddamn phone with long winded messages gets annoying.

Anyway since I have lots of work to do, I'll be leaving with this much for now. I'll post later on today (hopefully) with the name of the new computer (old computer? hand me down? something like that). ...and yes, I do name all my computers ever since the one I first built by my own hands.

List of names of Takkubein's computers:
Shotless
Steel Horse
Victory Convoy
Kaitou (Laptop)

Oooh, now that I think about it, I'm torn between two names I just thought up while remembering the name of my first built computer. ^^; So! Tell me what you think, should I name the rebuilt system Exousia (means Judgement) or Kogarasumaru (a swordsmith that made unbreakable swords)? Anyway back to work. ^^

- 怪盗キッド

If you're going to protect the earth from other beings, makes sure it stays safe by destroying it yourself. ^^

Anyway I'm pretty sleep deprived these days, seeing as how Momo-chan left last Sunday. I miss her terribly. ^^; I'm currently working my way to 80 in WoW while Momo is resting up from her vacation here. Currently reading various manga to catch up on the stuff I missed while Momo was here too. Tired as heck cause of work but I got the next four days off which will be great. Hm, I think I'll post more later, getting sleepy here. More regular news soon hopefully. ^^

- 怪盗キッド

...strangely it's always playing on a channel whenever Momo-chan comes. ...so I guess these are our movies. ^o^ Just thought you guys would like to know. ^o^
- 怪盗キッド

My god, I'm surprised Livejournal hasn't repo'd this ID because of the lack of things going on. >.> ...speaking of Myspace is repo'ing my ID there so uh... yeah. I logged into it, and laughed because they haven't repo'd it yet. Time for another year of inactivity. ^o^ Alright, summary of Momo's stay here.

Eat.
Shopping.
Playing games.
Massive snuggles.
...more snuggles.
Ice Cream (because obviously it's an entirely different thing than eating) (...she also says "duh" right beside me)
Me going to work.

...and that's how the days have been playing through for the past couple of weeks. ...which means she only has one more week here. ...it makes me emo. ToT But she says it'll be okay and I believe her. ^o^

She's also correcting my grammar as I type this. And she's a foreigner. And she's a creampuff. She's lul'ing as I type this.

She also worked out this new layout thingie because the other one was being dumb. ToT (needs to put his KID picture in the background somewhere)

Anyway I've somehow conned her into playing World of Warcraft; which means to say it was a group effort by the three. (if you have no idea what that means, then you don't know me that well; I'll elaborate if you ask though ^o^) I've spent quite a bit while she's been here too, which is amusing. About 200 dollars in Gundam kits. ...and she just facepalm'd.

I'm also spoiling her rotten and not letting her pay me back for anything. ..and when I mean anything that means not going to the bank to let her pull out money. ^____^

Charlotte: ...you're evil. D<

No. I'm chaotic neutral. ^o^ 

...she also laughs a lot when I actually tell her that. It's quite cute. ^^

Anyway for now this is the update. I'll try updating more instead of losing a leg or something and going, "something happened now I can write here!". She's also berating me for not writing in this thing more often.

Charlotte: Write more! WRITE MORE! I WANT YOUR INNER FEELINGS! (ambiguous hand motions)

...I'm not kidding this is what I'm seeing. Anyway off I go. ^_^

- 怪盗キッド

Hooooooly crap. o_O I didn't know I still had this thing. Again, people bring to my attention that I really ought to update this thing more often. (scratches his cheek) My interests haven't changed that much if at all since the last entry. Still in yet another Rider Kick, this time with the new show Kamen Rider Kabuto. ^^ My computer is sorta new, got it for a discount off a friend so I got a new system instead of old Steel Horse. Guess that could count as news. I got a couple of semesters left at DeVry then I finally graduate which, well, feels and seems like a long time away but it's really not.

Lesse, anything new in this old life of mine? Not really, good things here and there (himitsu desu >.>) and some bad things but overall I can't complain. Surprisingly I'm still in an RP yet again (yeah thought I left it a while ago but uh guess not), been going through the paces for over a year (Which surprised the hell out of me). Not that I'm complaining but there might be better ways to spend my life. ...haven't found them though so, HEHE. ^^

No good games really coming out this summer, save for Disgaea 2 (definite, must get). Oh! I've been playing City of Villains a lot over the past few months. o.o If anyone ever gets it, they can find me on Justice server as the Infamous Masked Rider (just Masked Rider though, the infamous is my title ^^). Either him of the CrimsonGhost. I have a KID character made but I still need to work on him. Might just have him be a mastermind with just bullets and no lackies. A dumb idea, yes I know, but it keeps in tune with KID's persona. ^^

Hmhmhm, anything else? Well not really, I got a couple of my friends into that RP (Bleach Forums RPG, here's a link for anyone who's interested [Yay, free advertizing >.>])

http://www.bleachforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=42

Good community, they're pretty supportive. If anyone feels like finding me, just look for 9th Division's Tenshirou. ^^ Hehe good times. Hm, gonna read a bit, enjoy my time before school tomorrow, and get a pizza. Not in that order.

Oh, one more thing. Codename: Kids Next Door: Operation Z.E.R.O. is an awesome movie. ^^ Later days.

~ Kaitou KID

Geez, when was the last time I came here? Geezus. Anyway, there's been a whole year gone by and I always forget to update this thing. What an idiot no? Anyway, this wonderful little wannabe magician's life seems to be getting just a little bit hecktic but hell, who's isn't? Currently I'm just doing my little thing to keep the hordes of fun at bay so I may study and finish this whole college spiel. Currently, however, I'm in class, which isn't too bad, the pacing is awesome, I do work whenever I feel the mood strike me. It's a nice little set up. Ugh and I realized I need to clean out my computer at home. Oh well, another day and all that.

(looks over this whole thing) Geez I really do need to update this more. I still love the set up, so very simple for the needs of myself that I don't feel the need to change it. KID's grinning face is always a welcome sight.

Though I find it just a little bit ironic I'm reading up on Sherlock Holmes, the mood struck me so I bought the book and I've already devoured half of it. "Scandal in Bohemia" is still one of my favorites and the methods I've read within the books I'm trying to apply. So, in that sense I'm learning something else outside of school. My motivational leadership teacher seems a bit intrigued by it, he couldn't remember the name of the story of Holmes he read and when he started describing it, I instantly put out, "A Study in Scarlet". It's been so long since I've read that one I'm actually planning on trying to locate it for reference.

Lesse, nothing too big to report actually. Save for the fact my brother's car got totalled.

Yes that beautiful 3000GT VR4 died last Thursday in a driver's side collision with a truck. Thankfully no one was hurt, but that doesn't make the sting of my brother's favorite vehicle any less painful. He's currently trying to locate another model of the same make, and hopefully under 10,000 dollars.

As for me? No one else in my life really, it's quite sad perhaps. I'm fine with it, I got my friends, my best friend, Super Robot Wars, and the occasional outing to fall back on. School takes up quite a bit of my time as well and I'm not even sure if I'd be able to swing having a girlfriend as well. Girls do take quite a bit of one's time.

Well, in adjusting my hat and looking around I believe it is time for me to head off to the next class, hopefully with only a half hour or so till I return home. Hopefully I shall remember this journal more often and with it, all the nice freedoms of just typing whatever comes to my fancy. Whelp off I go, the KID needs to get his classes over with and hopefully, get some pleasant reading done and let my brain relax with a good novel. Kaitou KIDDO, gone for now. (salute)

-Kaitou KID

Well, seems I can't direct link images from the new site I bought Drea cause of the code she put in. I don't mind though, keeps people honest and not stealing bandwidth from her so there's nothing wrong with that. ^_^ Though I had to redo my KID background and throw it over here so I could have that nifty grinning thief again. It just makes the page better in my opinion. ^_^;

Oh and to those of you wondering what the deal is with KID here, he's the famous kaitou (phantom thief) who has the good graces to have the same birthday as his creator Aoyama Gosho. For those of you who have no idea who the man is, you can catch his work in the series Detective Conan / Case Closed (KID appears quite a few times in that one), Yaiba, and even his own manga (which as far as I know, is only three volumes, guess Aoyama-sensei is making Kaito's final end up in the air). Here's a dossier out of fun. ^_^;

Name: Kaito Kuroba
Alias: Kaitou KID, KID, Kaitou 1412, The Last Wizard of the Century
Age: 17
Height: 5'8
Weight: 130-140 lbs
Birthday: June 21st
Occupation: Student, Kaitou
Quote: "In a KID heist, no one gets hurt."

Brief History: Kaitou KID, a mysterious phantom thief who steals precious jewels and items, giving them back to their actual owner or simply returning them. His purpose is unclear and why he does what he does seems to make little sense. His prescence is announced through his ominous laughter and his flashy entrances and exits. However, one day eight years ago, KID disappeared and hadn't been heard from till one day, a notice made its way to a jewel collection, announcing that KID had returned...
Kaito Kuroba is the today's Kaitou KID, but in reality he is a 17-year old high-school student. At this age he can't be the earlier Kaitou KID.
One day Kaito discovers a secret chamber. There he found an old record from his father, Toichi Kuroba. The tape is very old and so it had broken a few seconds later. Next, Kaito found a white suit, top hat, and monocle - the garments of the Kaitou KID. Kaito remembered that KID was planning to rob something that evening (it was in the newspaper) so he left his house to challange the legendary KID while dressed in the clothes he found in the secret room. When he arrived there he met another man dressed as KID, and after a brief magician's battle the man revealed his identity - it was Chii the assistant of Toichi. He told Kaito he wanted to find the murderers of Toichi Kuroba, so he dressed as KID to lure them out. When asked, Chii confirmed that Toichi was the original KID. From that point on, KID continues his father's work by stealing various jewels to draw out his father's murders, the mysterious Black Organization. When he dons the gear of KID, he becomes a white phantom of the dead, his father's ghost.

Nifty huh? Yeah a big reason why KID's great. ^_^; He likes to give Conan a hard time in some cases and because his father was killed, KID has a policy about no guns. ...his card gun is non-lethal so it's fine. No one gets hurt in a KID heist. ^_^ And the Kaitou KID taskforce is more than willing to jump in and just try playing catch that Bandit. ^_^ Well that'll be it for now, I must go places, but yeah! I'll do more stuff and possibly add another entry later tonight. Till then.

- Kaitou Kid

WELL! Looks like I haven't been updating as much as I should have. It's fine though. I've been real busy as of late, working on fanfiction (gasp) and artwork stuff. Yes! I'm actually working on some artwork stuff. I might just upload it on my friendster just to see if I can get a reaction but nah, too lazy to do that. Lazy mostly because of the fanfiction work I'm doing. Currently working on a Danny Phantom project which is amusing me to no end. I've sort of thought of doing some one shots on the Fairly Oddparents as well, mostly involving the Crimson Chin and such. It's amusing what time I have for vacation I spend watching cartoons. Ah no worries though. I'm enjoying myself and that's all that matters. Now, onto the subject. Front Mission 4. The game is friggen awesome. The mechanics are no different than Front Mission 3, but it's getting quite good with the ability system, I don't see anything I don't like about it. Except for maybe the lack of a Japanese vocal cast for the speaking parts of the game, but that's easily overlooked, I don't mind the voices as much now that I've played it for all of a day and a half.

I guess I've been burying myself in work, y'know, cause love's taking a backseat to it, keeping my mind away and -far- away from it as possible. I mean, despite enjoying the Comic Con immensely, it was sort of a... well let's just say maybe I might have been better off not going. But that's just me, I don't regret it really, I'm just unsure whether I should have gone or not. Guess that may be another reason why I haven't really talked to -her- much, if not at all. Doesn't seem like she's interested in talking to me, so I guess I should just leave her alone, right? I guess that's why I haven't exactly kept myself in one place to put my thoughts down. I remembered about my journal when an old friend by the name of Jen decided to say hi all over again. Guess she thought I'd forgotten but seems she was pleasantly surprised by me remembering at all. ...as much sense as that last sentence made. (shakes his head slightly) Anyhow, my KID project is on the backburner, I can't seem to think of a prologue. Ah the headaches of being a writer again.

Sometimes I wonder if any of these things even matter or should matter. I mean, I have to do the whole school thing, I have to do this or that, or I'm just sleeping away my time because it's a lot easier than anything else. (sighs lightly, rubbing his nose) I dunno. Guess I'm feeling just a wee bit lonely, or something. Eh, no matter, I have other things to ramble about.

Ah, superheroes. I created one in third grade and I'm currently revamping him for a future story, I've got most of it figured out in some ways and I'm just filling in the gaps. I'll probably start it sometime next month if I'm lucky, since I've been getting positive responses with my DP work. And maybe, -just maybe- if I finish both of those, I'll work on my KID fic, because frankly, I can't wait to get it out of my head.

And now for real life. Real life's been pretty good lately, I've been able to hang out with my high school friends like Jay, Ryan, and a few others from time to time, depending on the mood or occasion (mostly Jay though, he only lives like, half a block from here). It's not too bad really, though I can't say the same for my oldest friend (girlfriends tend to do that to people) seeing as how I practically never see him. It's not that bad, but checking on him every once in a while is a little ... (thinks) reassuring. Then again they're probably going at it for all I know so let's not doddle on that subject.

Well I guess that's it for now. It's late, I'm tired, and I rather just lose myself in another 12 hours or so of sleep. Guess feelings just won't leave you alone, no matter how many times you wish it would.

- Kaitou Kid

And never a truer statement has been uttered. The extremes of either really will not mix, but things like normal Role playing using science to make it -look- like magic is fine. But just some people are just dumb, bringing things into an RP that just do not belong. Case in point, I spoke with a friend / associate / rival of mine, who goes by the name of Andou (Andrew, Andy, Old One, Ancient One, etc), and he tells me of some god modder just running in and mouthing off. Really, it's dumb. Apparently the guy had been under a name, and just switched and jumped in. And although I shouldn't be angry at -words-, I'm just annoyed for my own reasons. I popped in to see what, because Andou didn't say any names, just saying some idiot was being stupid. So as soon as I arrive, I pick the name out of the room easily. It's too simple with these guys.

Alright, I feel better. Y'know now that I vented a bit. Anyhow, my day's been pretty ... tiring. I'm so worn out. Spent the entire day with my family, barely any rest because my mother wakes me up at 7 to do something, and we're supposed to leave at 10. ...I don't even get to the errand till like 9:30 because I was supposed to go with my brother. >.< It's a pain. Had Dim Sum, wandered around Fisherman's wharf for a bit. Then Ki and I found the arcade. o.o Finally got to play the 3rd version for Initial D there. It was fun, playing it again made me wanna start up again. Buuuuut I dunno. I've got plans to go to Sac-town on Monday with Jay and company, and tomorrow is Jay's party I think. Hahaha he doesn't know when it starts either.

Ah nothing much else to add, really too tired to concentrate on anything. Maybe I'll get something done with my Kaitou stuff.

- Kaitou Kid

Amusing that, that poem from so long ago haunts me. (grins) Anyway this is probably going to be my journal for my upcoming Kaitou Kid fansite project. Possibly my favorite character created by Aoyama Gosho, Kid outranks Kudo Shinichi / Edogawa Conan by far. ^_^; Anyway off topic slightly, the outlook of this journal was wonderfully created by my best friend Drea. You can check out her site at http://fan.tawainai.org/ and more likely than not, she'll probably be hosting the site. SO, you're probably wondering, 'what's so good about the Kaitou Kid?'. ...y'know besides his whole gimmick, his background, and how he looks pretty damn cool when he's stealing things. He always gives it back though! Anyway nothing much to put up here, just the fact Drea wants me to see what the comment stuff looks like. No bid deal. On an unrelated note, I got my Digimon cards today, further adding to my collection. Four cards more and I will complete my deck of 30 cards, making it a tournament legal deck. ^_^ Anyhow, that's it. Ja.
