Xeno banter and annoyance...
Gomen!~
I have had a huge Xenosaga revival. It's because I decided to download the anime (which Azz was supposed to have given me when I was in Adelaide -__- ). To pass time I went on YouTube to watch lotsa Xeno trailers. Big mistake. I'm in love again and wish I could relive it all. I could... but I lent a friend the first game in the saga. That and I have still to complete Xenogears. T'is a great game, but I'm stuck at a yucky place right now and there's a boss battle looming which I can't win.
But this second trailer is my favourite. I love the music (managed to download it too, ehehe). It's got... sorta spoilers in it, but if you're like me you won't remember anything anyway if you end up ever playing the games.
And this clip... it has spoilers, so I sincerely don't recommend watching it for those who are particular about such things... but this has to be one of my absolute favourite scenes in the entire game. I'm positive I ranted about this scene a while ago. Its so good I must talk about it again, ehehe!
BOSS BATTLE!!!!!!!! LOL! Gaaaahh.. that scene makes me cry like a pathetic weepy thing. On a plus note I can finally distinguish between Kevin Winnicot and Alex Rowe confidently. Ones a complete bastard and the other is a gorgeous pseudo-angsty man. I'll leave it up to you to guess who's who XD
Pain - Joanne Hogg
First we touch, and we hurt each other
Then we tear our hearts apart
We are too close and I can feel the pain
Fill my empty heart
Is this pain too much for me
Can I stay the same
When this pain consumes my heart
Will I be able to hold on to my soul
Kindness is something I don't want or need
The sunshine would just dissolve me into light
Give me a pain as pleasing as your sigh
So I can feel you all the day and night
And keep me from fading away
Even when we behold each other
Somehow our eyes do not meet
And when you hold me in your strong embrace
Still I feel no heat
But it gives me such delight
To feel you closer now
I know I am true to myself
Though it cuts deep into my heart somehow
Kindness is something I don't want or need
The sunshine would just dissolve me into night
Give me a pain as pleasing as your sigh
So I can feel you all the day and night
And keep me from fading away
Oh I know the lyrics sound crap by themselves (most Xenosaga songs are riddled with angst.. dunno why...), but that's why I'm providing Pain.mp3 7.7MB for your listening pleasure. It's a lovely song with all the glory that you'd come to expect of something Yasunori Mitsuda got his talented little fingers on. I especially love it around the 4 minute mark with just the instrumental and that electric guitar. Mmm!
I also mentioned this once before... but the APA sucks balls. I'm doing Level 10 (two more to go!!) and I need to write out a book reference. I have gotten it wrong three times. The fourth time I found a reference link on the site linking me on how to reference books properly. All the information was the exact same as in the reference I had to write out. So I copied it. And it was fucking wrong. Where is the logic in that when the reference they link us to to show us how to correctly reference something isn't even recognised as correct by the fucking dickhead who wrote this plagiarism and referencing task.
My kingdom for a voodoo doll!!!!!!
Oh HA! Look how screwed these results are... and please note how loooooow the 'art' score is. In my defence... I don't think this meme was a true depiction, nor had objective enough questions to formulate 100% accurate scores. And other than that... the season of cold water is upon us! *goes to defrost fingers*

If anyone is likely to dress up in a crazy outfit, you are! You enjoy the visual stimulants of intense art accompanied with deep plots of fantasy, science-fiction, real-life; or you are just obsessed with Japan and everyone and everything in it. They love to gather with people like themselves at conventions and act crazy! The anime nerds are often associated with the stereotype of being the "psychotic" nerd, because they tend to be obsessive over their characters and series. You psycho! I'm just kidding! But seriously, all forms of art should be appreciated, and anime is definitely one of them.
