Blue Friend - Chapter 1

Blue Friend - Chapter 1

A new manga that caught my interest finally appears. Blue Friend by Fumi Eban is a manga which was scanlated and released by Yurikai. The first chapter was really exciting and hilarious that made me look forward for the next release.

2nd-year middle school student Ayumu Kurihara changes classes and is seated next to the beautiful but strange Misuzu Tsukishima who dislikes boys. Mizusu can't get close to other people, but after being moved by Ayumu's sweet, honest personality she begins to open up to her little by little. Ayumu too is captivated by the awkwardly delicate Mizusu and the two of them become close.


Their first encounter was a ruckus because Ayumu pissed her off. Well, it can't be help because Ayumu has this carefree personality which is opposite to Misuzu.


Now, they're getting along with each other after Ayumu helped Misuzu from some stalkers who like taking pictures of Misuzu. I think, this is the start of the Misuzu liking Ayumu scenes.


And as time passes by, Misuzu and Ayumu became really close and their closeness still develops. Even though Misuzu still has this cold expression, deep inside, she really cares about Ayumu a lot.


Misuzu overheard the conversation of Ayumu's friends that pissed her off. Ayumu returned from the office and saw her friends having a quarrel with Misuzu. 

This is the first time that I saw Misuzu get mad (even though she got angry on Ayumu before) and cry like that. Ayumu and Misuzu are just too cute....(^_^)


Now, here's the best part... It's just so awwww... Ayumu was caught off guard there. Nice move, Misuzu. They're so adorable.

The first chapter is really cute but the guy who was like some kind of stalker bugs me a lot. Is it just me or maybe it's because of the impact that i got from watching the Kuttsukiboshi OVA last night... Kuttsukiboshi OVA?? Kuttsukiboshi OVA?? Last scene--- Aaarrgghh---- feeling down again....(-__-).... No! Must forget about that....

Anyway, I like the personality of Ayumu but Misuzu's personality is cute too. She has this tsundere personality which I like the best. Even though she's an unapproachable and scary person, she has this soft side of her personality whenever she's with Ayumu... That's cute, right??!! It's cute!!! Their opposite personalities made them a really good combination.

Yay! A new yuri manga series and a new yuri scanlation group.. This is the year for all yuri fans

Jhayzelkhulet said...

@Yurigirl29

Yup! You're right and I'm really glad that I found out about this Yuri genre. It was just last November and I'm really enjoying this a lot!!!^_^

ewan said...

wow. i really love this manga! :D it's almost as if it's shoujo-ish... except it's shoujo ai. haha i don't know if that made sense, but oh well. XD

Jhayzelkhulet said...

@ewan

Hhhmm,,,shoujo??? In what way??? Well, the manga is really cute as well as the main characters...I just really hope that chapter two will be release soon...^_^

ewan said...

hmm, now that you're asking me, i'm not really sure. hahaha XD let's see... probably because of how the main character is really aloof and everyone else dislikes her, except for that one person (the outgoing, friendly-with-everyone type... considerably opposite of the former) who'd understand her, see something in her that others can't, and accept her for who she is... and then, as usual, they eventually get together. i don't know, it feels as if i've read a shoujo manga with that kind of plot... lol. ^^' or maybe i'm just thinking too much. o.o haha. or... perhaps because this manga is serialized by ribon, a magazine that only ever serializes shoujo manga? haha i don't really know. XD i think i'm gonna go with the "i'm thinking too much" o.o'

and yeah, i hope so too. :) i guess the good thing is that ayumu doesn't seem to be the type of person who'd reject and completely ignore tsukishima for doing what she did... so i have high hopes that nothing will go horribly bad with the story. XD

Jhayzelkhulet said...

You may also be right since there are different mangas with different plots that's why if you really like reading, there will be a moment that a manga you read will be mixed in another different manga. Does that makes sense???

Hahaha. I was thinking that because of what Misuzu did, Ayumu kinda realize her own feelings. But the guy who's secretly watching them bothers me a lot. Although, despite that, it won't stop me from reading this manga.=P

ewan said...

yep, that makes sense. i guess you're right. ^^ and some mangas, no matter how hard they try to stray away from the cliche of plots, they sometimes can't help but follow that direction anyway. that's one of the reasons they all seem to be similar to each other. XD

i hope so. :) oh yeah, i almost forgot about that guy. who do you think he was stalking? ayumu or misuzu? o.O haha same here. i hope the author won't make him too much of a hindrance... probably just a way to make ayumu jealous or something she she can realize her true feelings. XD

Jhayzelkhulet said...

Exactly!!! There are so many mangas these days that's why there's a great possibility that the plot will be repeated. There were also mangas wherein the ending can already be predicted.

Hhmmm, I guess he's a stalker of Misuzu since she's very popular but it can also be Ayumu's stalker if the author will think of creating some twist.=O

ewan said...

yep! given the fact that the plot's been overused a lot already, it's easy to predict what's going to happen. perhaps some authors find it a bit of a challenge to write something out of the norm yet simultaneously interesting and original? haha. but yeah, there still are a couple, maybe a lot, of famous mangas that have cliche plots... so it's good to read a manga with an original plot once in a while. the manga world is already too flooded with predictable storylines... haha jk. XD

i thought it might be misuzu's stalker too since she's overly popular. i mean, heck, the guys are always trying to take a picture of her as if she's some tsundere celebrity, lol. XD but then i thought about the possibly of him being ayumu's stalker too... since she said something about a "guy" after being called to the office or something. o.o' but if it's meant to be some sort of twist, then it's fine. i just hope it's not going to be as disappointingly absurd as the twist in kuttsukiboshi. -.-'

Jhayzelkhulet said...

You're right about that... There's too many mangas that's why it's really difficult to think of something unique. The only problem is that even if an author was able to come up with an original plot, the reader might either find it good but there's also a possibility that they might find it bad, just like what happened in the Kuttsukiboshi...

I think it will not turn out that way since Misuzu showed several hints that she likes Ayumu. Ayumu on the other hand, is not the type of person who will do something unexpectedly since she's a really transparent type of person. I guess that guy is the only problem because there are so many twists that can be inserted in the manga because of him.

ewan said...

that's true. and in kuttsukiboshi's case, it's mostly the ending that ruined it. it started going fine but just turned to turmoil all of a sudden. even though it was a bit ordinary (i think?), the original plot wasn't that bad. i actually liked how it involved kii's powers... which i wasn't expecting since the trailers didn't really show that as far as i remember. ^^'

yeah. anyway, misuzu hates men... so i'm hoping that won't be a source of problem for the two of them. and yep, for all we know, that guy can be plotting the worst thing that could happen. but hopefully, the author wouldn't be that sadistic to us readers enough that he'd make such a big deal/twist out of some stalker guy that probably doesn't even stand a chance with any of the two. XD

Kira said...

This is a wonderful write-up! Thanks for reading! We definitely plan on releasing the second chapter as soon as we can! ~Kira

Jhayzelkhulet said...

@ ewan

Yeah... It wasn't that bad after all. The only problem is the impact of that last scene that gave me a very vexing feeling when I first watched it. Actually, I watched it few times again but I always exclude that last scene. Hehehehe.

Hhmm, I guess the only problem and can also be considered a mystery is how she ended up hating men and having that aloof personality. Hhhmm, I don't know... I just thought that maybe it's not just because of the guys who always take her picture at school. It's like I have a feeling that there's a deeper reason behind it. Is it just me or maybe I'm just thinking too much....??(",)??

Same here. The first chapter has given me so many what ifs and whys... It makes me feel so excited but at the same time nervous... I enjoyed this kind of feeling though... Having these mix feelings that makes me look forward for something is fun too...Hehehe... ;D

Jhayzelkhulet said...

@ Kira

You're from Yurikai, right??? Thanks for the message and also for visiting this blog... I was trying to leave a message in your site to say thank you for scanlating Blue Friend but it says that comments are off.

That's a wonderful news. I know that many people are really looking forward for your release. Your release even got so many nice feedbacks from different sites...^_^

ewan said...

@Jhayzelkhulet: haha i do that too sometimes. XD and just now too (the subbed version) except for the last part of course. i don't know... i'm not as irritated with it anymore... which is good. XD

oh yeah, you're right. i also think that there must be more to it than just randomly hating them. as for her aloof personality, as she had mentioned, it's partly because of her hatred towards men. if i remember correctly, she said that if she kept quiet like how she is now usually, they might stay away from her or something like that... either that, or she's just naturally quiet... or both, haha. XD

haha that's true. ;) it's an even better reward once the next chapter comes out and it's just as wonderful as you imagined and hoped it would be. :D




@Kira: thanks for the blue friend release! the manga reader looks pretty cool too. :)

Jhayzelkhulet said...

@ ewan

Waaah!!! I can't believe that it's finally released... So fast! But I can't watch it yet because I just got home... I might fall asleep before it could finish the download. Hehehe... Anyway, how was it???

I think that's already a given since all the people who watched it already expressed their disappointment during its first released.

Even though she has this aloof personality, I really think that it's cute... Well, I think that if guys are really like that, anyone will be really annoyed.

Yup! I'm really excited on what will happen between those two after Misuzu kissed her....

ewan said...

if downloading takes too long, you can watch it on youtube. ^^ it was alright... the ending, of course, refrained from making it any better, but i did like how aya was very supportive of kii's abilities. XD

yeah... for most, i guess that's how it is for them. but for others, they refuse to rewatch it again, which clearly understandable.

that's true. somehow i'm inclined towards tsundere characters with aloof personalities. XD but if guys are like that in real life, it really would be a big turn off. in mangas, though, they come off as "cool" to a lot of fans.

same here! i have a feeling that the stalker guy will show up more in the next chapter though... i just hope he won't be a threat to their growing relationship.

Jhayzelkhulet said...

Hehehehe... I prefer the download because I have a habit of watching the scenes that I like all over again. I guess that's how I ended up using the whole memory of my previous laptop but it was just full of mangas back then.

Having special abilities are really cool.^^,

Well, we all have different opinions that's why it's just a matter of respect...

That's right... Instead of hating them for it, I tend to like them even more... It's really adorable for me.... Reality and manga are really different... There are bad things in real life that can be a good thing in manga. But there are things from manga that can't be done in reality. Manga has the advantage. Hehehe...

Hhhmmm, just by thinking about the second chapter excite me already. I think that it won't be long before the next chapter be release.

ewan said...

hahaha i see. in my case, most of the time i download anime videos when i absolutely can't watch them online (or if the quality is unbearable). and if i do download them, i keep them there until i run out of the urge to rewatch it again. ^^'

yep! i wish i had her ability... that would be so cool. haha XD

precisely. it's all about respect and the manner of delivering one's opinions right. i mean, if a fan expresses his or her opinion in a rude way or goes overboard, i don't think others would give that person respect in return... so it has to go both ways in order for it to work out.

yeah, i find it cute and cool at the same time. XD and you're right. manga is fiction after all... the only limit is the individual's imagination. XD

really? that's good to know. :D i was thinking it would at least take a month before the next chapter comes out... but perhaps sooner than that, hopefully. ;)

Jhayzelkhulet said...

Same here... I only download the animes that I considered my favorite... Doing some random download is a real pain especially when the internet access is very limited. Up until now, the only anime that I was able to download completely is K-On! Season 1... Others are not finish yet since my brother brought my laptop again...(-_-)

I was able to watched just a part of it when I woke up on 4am and I was again hoping that if ever I could have the opportunity to have her powers, I won't get it through some accidents. Hahahaha...

Well, I think the comments that I saw won't get enough respect because they were using foul words... Sadly, some of them even used Tagalog to bad mouth the others. *sigh*

I think it depends on the scanlator because some other sites were pretty fast in releasing a manga.

ewan said...

that's true... but when it comes to mangas, i usually just download them now because of the online reading sites deletion issue. ohh, so you have the whole season? hmm... every episode of k-on! is great, isn't it? hahaha. XD

4 am? that's early. o.o' oh yeah, i almost forgot she might've gotten her powers through an accident. haha, i don't think i'd want to get one that way either... unless i become masochistically desperate, then maybe... hahaha jk. :P

really? wow. that's really unnecessary. how immature. >.>'

hmm, that's true. but i think it also depends on the release of the raws, first of all. they can't really do much of anything if they don't have the raws. if the raw comes out and the quality is good, then it all depends on the scanlator. ^^

Jhayzelkhulet said...

Same here... But it's not just because I am having a trouble with the online reading sites,it's also because it served as a reference to me whenever I want to read the same manga all over again.

Except season 2, of course. Yup! there were no dull moments whenever I watch K-On! It's always about fun, fun, fun!!! =D

Hahaha... About that... It was just a mere accident that I woke up early... I guess my guts told me that I should wake up because I don't want to be found out that I didn't shut down my laptop.

Anyway, you also woke up early too, right? Or maybe we just have different Time Zone...? Your first comment today says that you posted around 3:16 am... I adjusted the Time Zone in my blog last night because it doesn't match the time here. Hehehe. I just noticed it after 4 months...

Her ability is really special. There's are so many things that a person can do with it... *imagine* *imagine* ;P

It's true... I was really disappointed because of those comments... They have the opportunity to use it in a good way but they just use it to bad mouth other people. They don't even realize that it is not just them who will be affected by their actions but also their fellow Filipinos... (Note: I'm not running for president or something) It was just too vexing...

You're right about that. Then, let's just hope that the raws will be release soon... ;>

ewan said...

hmm, that makes sense. since i usually delete what i've downloaded and read already, i'd have to look for it again when the time comes that i'd have to refer to it. storing it has an advantage... ^^'

haha that's right. actually, when i watched k-on! for the first time, i found it a bit boring... i guess i was in my 'shounen mode' at the time, haha. but now, i don't even know why i failed to see k-on!'s greatness that time... it's a shame, but the important thing is that i've long changed my opinion about it dramatically, right? XD

ohh, i see. that must've been some huge gut instinct. i've been waking up late nowadays. x.x i need to stop, haha.

3:16 am? hmm, it must be around 12-1 pm here then. so yep, we have different time zones. ^^' i'm in the u.s. right now. XD i want to go back and visit though, but i haven't in a long time. D: hahaha, it happens to me too... not noticing things like that, i mean. XD

yep!! like... making a prank to a friend and let them believe a ghost was there causing things to float... *sadistic side takeover* hahaha jk. XD

exactly. what's worse is that people tend to generalize a lot. even if it's not our fault that those filipinos did what they did, we still become dragged due to their idiocy.

yep. :D and hopefully, the artist makes more mangas like blue friend. haha. ;)

Jhayzelkhulet said...

Mine were all stored in my laptop but I have it repaired last 2 months and it took me 1 month before it finished the repairs so I transferred my files in my Ipod just in case. The worse experience there is that the files were lost and it took me another month (I think) to know on how I can revive those files again. 33gig files were lost at that time that's why I felt awful. It was still in my Ipod but I can't seem to have access in it...

Same here... Back then, I'm only interested in shoujo where a guy and a girl always end up together. Without it, it's a complete no, no for me.... Hehehe... I think it's because there are so many animes that watching all of them at once is really impossible.

I guess it's not just my guts but also the "I don't wanna get scolded just by being caught" issue. =P

Ahhh--- so that's how it is... I first thought that you're in the Philippines that's why I assumed that we have the same Time Zone... Okay, I get it now...

Well, I was thinking on making some pretty scandalous event when I don't feel like having class (or a way of skipping an exam or quizzes), is what I am thinking... =P

Yup! It's an all for one, one for all situation... I feel sorry for them for not even realizing that fact... *sigh*

There are so many yuri mangas but most of it were not allowed to be release in the internet for free.... Another problem is that there are only few scanlators (but I'm really thankful for them) who dedicate themselves in this kind of genre.

ewan said...

oh... wow. must've been a real pain. D: and 33 gigs? that's A LOT. O_O did your laptop get a virus or something? and yeah, it's weird that you can't access the files in your iPod... well, at least you have it stored on there. now you'll just have to worry about how to access them. ^^'

haha, same here. i don't even remember when it was that i started getting into shoujo ai. but anyway, shoujo ai, shounen, and shoujo are all great in my opinion. XD and yeah, potential couples should end up together... but i guess it depends too.

i had a feeling it was more of that... haha. XD as for me, no one really notices if my laptop's still turned on (hence they don't really scold me)... except for my sister sometimes. the only time that usually happens is when i take a short break/nap and end up falling asleep longer than intended. XD

yep... there's about 12 hours of time difference actually. ^^'

hahaha, i see. wow, i sure would like to see that... how scandalous it would be. :P

that's right. but rather than feeling sorry for them, i'm actually more upset. at some point i think they do realize that what they're doing affects people's opinions about us too. it really can get irritating at times...

yeah. i think there's at least a couple of scanlators of any genre. i'm glad there are devoted ones scanlating for this kind of genre too. XD

Jhayzelkhulet said...

Ahhh,,the laptop is good...The problem with my laptop is its monitor... About the Ipod, the files can't be seen but when I checked its memory, it says that a big amount of memory is being used and I know that it's because of those files..

As for me, it was during November because I got depressed.... Ha-ha-ha.... Such a dark past (~_~)... I tried reading to distract myself and I accidentally bumped in this kind of genre....

I thought that it was also because of some dream but whenever I dream, I ended up forgetting what it was when I wake up... Yup! Just like that! Even though I intend to sleep just for a while (with the use of alarm clock to wake me up), I still turn it off without even realizing that I was turning it off.

Yeah, that's why I understand it now... Actually, I started realizing that there's that possibility when you mentioned Junior High....^^,

HHmm, and I would like to see that prank too and on how your friends will react on it... But, I think that's also the reason why we can't have that ability because before we cam even have it, we were already thinking on how we could use in a different way... Hahaha...

It's not just at times but always...Language is used to communicate with others and should not be use to bad mouth others even though their reason is because other countries won't even understand what they're saying....

Banzai for those scanlators... Banzai!!! Just wanna try saying that... ;P

ewan said...

ahh i see. it's the same laptop that your brother keeps borrowing right? ^^' at least you're sure that the files you saved are in there. it's just the matter of getting them back. XD

oh, and from then on you've gotten into it? XD haha, in my case, i think there was one time when i was depressed and i tried to distract myself by playing the piano. it doesn't work all the time though, 'cause i end up playing melancholic songs, haha.

same here! for some reason, i forget it right away when i wake up... and then i try to remember it but it rarely ever happens that i do. and yeah, i think it's because of dreams too. oddly though, sometimes, it comes to a point where i'm dreaming and i know it, but i just keep on going with the dream. it's weird... ^^'

i did? hmm... when? haha. XD

i think i can imagine my friends either screaming or freaking out in some way, hehehe. XD yep, i agree. i guess that's one reason why things like that don't really happen 'cause people are always tempted to do something (perhaps evil. muahahaha XD) with it.

that's right. it still happens though, even in real life and not just online. i've witnessed one such circumstance myself. some people take advantage of the fact that others don't know the language and so they use it to badmouth them behind their back.

hahaha yeah, banzai!! i should try saying that for real sometime. XD

Jhayzelkhulet said...

Hahaha,, that can be quite a hassle too... It's like "you can feel it, but you can't touch it"... I don't know how say it exactly...

Well, not that totally but past is past, right? All I can do is to find a way to correct it somehow... Oh, so you can play piano, huh... Well, I think that, it's better than not doing anything at all.

Yeah... It's not weird... It happens to me a lot too... I think it's what they called Lucid dream wherein you're aware and in control of your own dream.

I don't remember when but I just know it... Am I wrong???

Uhhhmm, Doing something evil is fun too... Or should I say pranks... Hehehe... =P Trying to be good is pretty tiring so it's like doing something for a change... As long as it's not that serious then it's fine, right??

Hahaha... I have experienced that too... There are so many foreigners that are studying here so it happens a lot... Not just the foreigners but also the local citizens who used different dialects.

You're right about that!!! But as for me, I can't say it in public because they might think that I have some mind problems... Sometimes, it's better if you can say something to someone who can really understand you... It doesn't matter if that person doesn't exactly understand the word, just as long as that person can ride in what you're trying to say... =P

ewan said...

hmm, i think i understand where you're coming from... it's like, you know it's there and you badly want it but you can't get it... or something like that. XD

yep. past experiences are there not just because they inevitably happened but also for people to learn from it... or at least prevent it from haunting them or anything like that. and yeah, i don't really play that good since i just taught myself (i know how to read music but i'm helplessly slow x_X), but it's fun to play. ^^ sometimes it gets my mind off things for a while...

haha you're right, that's the term. i was recalling what it was but i couldn't remember at the moment. ^^'

haha no, you're not wrong. i think i remember mentioning something about junior high too but i don't know when or where, so i asked. but it's alright if you don't remember. XD

hehehe yep. why are bad things so much fun to do? it's almost a mystery... haha jk. XD yeah, a little prank won't hurt... *evil grin* hehe. :P

ahh... i guess people are just tempted to express their anger by literally saying it without the subject knowing what they're saying.

yep, that's true. for me, i think my sister understands... in a way that she herself is into the things i'm in, like anime, manga, fanfics and such... so if i randomly say something related to that, she'll know what it is and understand why, etc. XD

Jhayzelkhulet said...

Exactly! Hahaha... I'm sorry... I'm really not good when it comes to that... There are times that I have something in my mind but I just can't say it in a way that I wanted it to be said.

That's still cool! I don't know how to read those things that's why I preferred watching others on how they do it when I was trying to study on how to play a guitar. Unfortunately, I love musical instruments but they don't love me... Hehehehe...

Because it's evil and it's forbidden... Hahaha... Sometimes, people just do it out of curiosity... It's not a crime if it's just a little...Hahahaha... XD

But still, there's a limit for everything. It's better to say it face to face than backstabbing.

That's great...As for me, it's hopeless. My brother and I have different likes and dislikes even in food... The only thing that we're similar is that we're fond of computers.

ewan said...

haha it's okay, no need to say sorry. i'm like that sometimes too. i know it in my head but when i try to explain it, it doesn't come out as good as it should've or, like you said, in a way i wanted it to come across.

thanks, haha. :) hmm, i don't know how music sheets are for guitar. i tried learning it but i'm hopeless. ^^' well, i guess i don't really have the patience. i usually have all the patience when it comes to piano though, hehe. XD and it's really fun to play anime songs too. ^^ hahaha you should probably try again to get them to love you... you never know, maybe this time you'll succeed. it's all about the time and patience. :D

haha yep, it's all adam and eve's fault that we're tempted to do bad things too... hahaha jk. XD curiosity's the serpent in this time around... but yeah, a little should be fine. hehehe XD

yeah. and it's probably better if they just keep it to themselves too.

oh, it's kind of the same with my brother, though he's fond of computers more than i am. he's my virus remover. it's all mangafox's fault. >.> haha XD

Jhayzelkhulet said...

But it's kinda frustrating whenever that happens. All I can say is that it's "on the tip of my tongue". Hehehe...

Well, that can be arrange... It's a really great talent that's why you should just continue doing that.

Well, it can also be considered a good thing since everything has its own purpose, and that everything happens for a reason.. I just can't imagine a world without any sign of evil is kinda impossible.

Yeah! Sometimes, words are the source of arguments and misunderstandings.

Eh? I didn't know that Mangafox can also cause virus.

ewan said...

it really is! haha that's one way to describe it... there's this other scenario that happens to me quite often too. the difference is it's not that i don't remember the term or anything like that (hence it's not really "at the tip of my tongue"), it's that i know it but i can't seem to explain it the way i personally comprehend it... or something like that. i don't know, haha. XD that usually happens when i need to critically/philosophically analyze a piece of work or writing for my english class. x_x

haha thanks. it's pure hobby for me right now, so i'll be continuing it. i'd horribly regret it if i forget how to play the piano anyway. it's like... rejecting the person you like even though you're hopelessly head over heels for them... okay, that's a lame analogy but you know what i mean, haha. XD

that's very true. and it's exactly why people should "think before they act."

yep, unfortunately. and from the looks of it, it seems like you haven't gotten any virus... that's good. but be warned since it's happened to me countless times already. ^^'

Jhayzelkhulet said...

Yeah... What's worst in my case is that by the end of the day, I will suddenly remember what I wanted to say but it's already too late or it will continue bugging me because of not being able to figure it out.

Hahaha... I understand what you're saying... Besides, it's pretty difficult for someone to find what he/she really likes to do or if they do find it, it's too late already so just continue what you're doing. It's a gift...^_^

Sometimes, people forget that they should think first because of their emotions. As long as they can express themselves, they tend not to care anymore on what others would feel.

Hehehe... I have experienced that too, that's why I always remind my brother not to insert any flash drive coming for internet shops or even download any online games using this. I also used anti-malware and antivirus to give protection for my laptop. Thanks for the reminder....^_^

yeah, that happens to me too. once i suddenly remember what i want to say, what i should've said instead or how i wanted to say it, it's already too late. even so, i still can't help but regret and be bugged by it... it's too bad that i can't really turn back time. ^^'

hahaha thank you. :) though i'm very fond of playing it, it's not really something i would consider for a career. unfortunately, i'm still yet to find what i really want to do... but hopefully, i'll find it soon... well, more like i need to, haha.

you're right. that's what initiates conflicts too especially when what they say aren't really the best to be said out loud.

haha that's good. it's better to be safe than sorry after all. XD no problem. ^^

Jhayzelkhulet said...

Yeah... It would be nice if we have the ability to turn back time... If that happens, there will be no such thing as tragic past or mistakes.

That's okay... Although it can't be a career, at least you really enjoy doing it and you can also used that talent to make others happy. (^_^) No need to rush, you're still young so just enjoy the things that make you happy.

That's why people should learn how to control their emotions or if they can't, why not try to be alone for a little while to reflect and analyze the situation carefully.

Yeah... There was one time when I was reading some articles, there's this site that suddenly popped out and said that my laptop was infected by trojan. After seeing that, I panicked to the point that I don't even know what to do... I turned off my laptop immediately and in my surprised, it was just some kind of fake message because when I scanned my laptop, it doesn't seem to have any problem.

ewan said...

yeah, that's possible. but the bad thing about that is people might not care about learning from their mistakes since they'll be thinking they can just turn back time and redo it over.

haha, you're right. :) i guess so... but it'd be really convenient if i already knew what i want. it'll save a lot of time and money too.

that's right, they should, especially to people who are easily affected emotionally by even the simplest things.

ohh, something similar happened to me before. and yes, it's mangafox... again, haha. i was browsing and then the page changed to another one saying they were scanning my laptop 'cause i was attacked by a virus. the first time it happened, i panicked and closed the window... and that's pretty much it. i wasn't really attacked by a virus or anything. it scared the heck out of me though... ^^'

Jhayzelkhulet said...

You do have a point there.... HHmmmm... Then how about this--- people are given a one time chance to be able to turn back time.

Just think of it as a part of the whole experience thing. You even said that you're still a minor, right??? It can also be fun to discover new things about yourself until you reach the point of knowing the thing that you really want to do the most.

Yeah... That's how I felt too. It's even scary when you know that there are important files stored in your laptop. Curse those virus!!! Hehehe... Although, it's such a shame that the one who created those viruses were also the one who created the so called antivirus.

ewan said...

hmm... that's good enough. if i were given that chance, i'd probably go waaay back, haha. but then it's somewhat useless if turning back time also means you forget everything that happened til then... 'cause things would just happen as they were supposed to and the cycle repeats. but if not, then that'd be great. XD

yeah, well... after this year i actually wouldn't be considered a minor anymore. ^^' the school system in the u.s. is different from the phils and there are two more years of school to go before college (because of middle school). so next year, i'll (barely -.-') be going to college... that's why i need to know what i want to do really soon.

yep, that's right. hmm, if that's the case, i think i'll still be grateful enough that they created antiviruses instead of not making any at all. of course, it's still frustrating that they created computer viruses in the first place, but we can't really do anything about it.

Jhayzelkhulet said...

Hahaha... If I were given a chance to turn back time even just once while retaining all my memories, I'd prefer to return from the time I was born... That would be really great since I'm capable of correcting my mistakes and I'm already aware of the choices that I'm going to make. Skipping grades in a very young age is a nice idea too.

Ahh, right. I was 16 during my first year in college. Although, I think that there are also schools here that apply that same system (probably some private school). Hahaha. Don't just say barely 'cause I know that you're going to make it.

Hehehe. Of course they will make that too since it's a part of the marketing idea. If you really want your product to be popular, you must be able to find a way for it to be needed. It's like creating a problem to make your product the solution.

ewan said...

hahaha, if everyone had that same ability, they'd all be geniuses. heck, one could even wait until they're about to die and turn back time by then. that would be... crazy. o.o' somehow it reminded me of this anime called detective conan, haha. XD

hmm... probably brent high school or something like that. a lot of foreigners go there. XD haha yep, i know. i just said barely to emphasize how most of my classmates in the phils are already in college and i'm barely starting next year... is what i meant. i know i'm going to make it, but yeah... haha. ^^'

hahaha yeah, that marketing technique is an inevitable given. they take advantage of people's lack of choices. if they get a virus, they'd be forced to purchase some sort of antivirus program. it's somewhat the same with cigarettes and drugs too. people try them and once they become addicted, then they can raise the price and those addicts will still be forced to purchase them because.... well, withdrawal is one tough enemy. the bad thing is that hardcore addicts are willing to resort to crime just to get money to buy and consume more.

Jhayzelkhulet said...

Hehehe... It may be a crazy idea but I think, it's kind of nice too. It's just my opinion, though. It's just that, most of the people die with regrets in their life. I think, having that chance will give us the opportunity to eliminate or at least lessen those regrets. Ah, I like that anime. Although, my favorite pair is Shinichi and Haibara. =P

Oh, so you studied in Philippines too... Hehehe... That's okay... Right now, most of my classmates already have their own family and are even older than me.

I have a friend who's in Australia now. She was in her first year of college here but she went abroad. She mentioned that she was finishing her high school there because it was required. Other people think that working is better than education but my professor said that education is better because it opens the door of great opportunities.

That's how it goes in reality. They say that money is the source of evil. Some people will do anything when money is involve.

ewan said...

yeah. i myself have a lot of regrets i wish never occurred. it would be really nice if we could turn back time. i think i might go back to when i was in elementary... hehehe. XD yep, me too. it's my all time favorite anime. ^^ haha i see... i'm more of a shinichixran fan, though conanxai is cute too. ;D

yes, i moved right after graduating from elementary. ^^' i wish i could've experienced at least a year of high school there, but it's alright. that's true... and if you think about it, it's only natural he'd say that since he himself is a college professor.

yeah. it's almost as if everything revolves around money now...

Jhayzelkhulet said...

As for me, from the day I was born in this world. It will give me a chance to do anything from a very young age. Same here... I just love it whenever there are crime scenes then he would explain how it all happened. Although, it's still a mystery to me why those people don't even noticed when a person being used by Conan is either unconscious or just doing lip-sync (lip-sync is hard too).

HHmm,a school is still a school so I don't think that there's difference. Although, if I were to be ask, I want to experience studying in Japan... Hahaha.... Yup, he's a CPA-lawyer...

Especially in real world... They said that it's a real battle after you graduate and start looking for a job. That's the time that you will miss the feeling of just being a student.

ewan said...

hmm, i guess so. i don't really remember much about around the time when i was born, so i probably wouldn't want to go back that far. it'd still be fine though. XD oh, this one character actually noticed that (finally) and walked up to him and stretched his cheeks. conan, of course, acted as if he was hurt and so they think that it really is him speaking. but still... it's a mystery as to why they think somehow he can see everyone while his head is down, not to mention eyes are closed.

ahh, that would be nice too. and then you could experience the school stuff that happens in mangas... like a school festival, for instance... like that of k-on!. XD oh, no wonder...

yep, it really is, especially now that economy's bad. haha, does that mean you did too at one time? XD

Jhayzelkhulet said...

Hehehe... But for me, it's gonna be an awaesome experience if I can return from the time I was born (while retaining all my current memories, of course). At least, I can be a genius even just for a moment. =P Well, I think, it will still remain as a mystery. In the end, all I can say is "What the heck... As long as I enjoy watching the anime"... Hahaha...

That's right... It was pretty boring in my high school days (except events related to sports) that's why I kinda envy their system there.

Hahaha... Not just one time but most of the time... *Sigh* I'd rather choose studying than working but oh well, as if I can do that... I even regret the fact that I don't have any bad records when I was just a student...

ewan said...

haha if that really did happen, you might feel uneasy acting like a kid during your childhood years since you've supposedly retained your adult mind. :P perhaps conan can teach you how... hahaha jk. XD but yeah, being a genius would be nice. ^^ hehe, i don't really mind it either. i just think of it as "well, i guess since someone just died they wouldn't really pay attention to whatever pose he wants to be in just as long as the culprit is finally revealed" or something like that. XD

hehe, school's bound to be at least boring at some point, especially if you don't like the subject and/or the teacher. and things like that have to have some similarity in other school systems too. but sometimes the differences are what compensates for it. ^^'

hahaha, it sounds as if you'd wish you'd done something bad in school... o.o' i think i did once, and my conduct grade went down to... 86? hahaha. i didn't really mean to be offensive though. i guess it came out that way.

Jhayzelkhulet said...

Hahaha... Don't need it since I have this childish personality. Besides, it will also give me the opportunity to know more things and avoid making mistakes to prepare myself once I become an adult again.

That's right... Besides, I really enjoy watching him solving the mysteries because it also gives me an idea to do some of those tricks. It's like enjoying and learning at the same time.

You're right... Sports festival is the only thing that I can considered as fun... Not to mention some bruises and body aches that I got during my high school days. School plays too, probably.

Hahaha... Exactly... I don't know if you'll agree with me but bad things is more memorable than good things. It's not like I want to be evil but being good is kinda boring too. Not to mention, it's not even that memorable. It will be more fun if you can do something that you can reminisce and laugh about in the future. Whoa! I already thought that you were really something but I didn't realized that you're really good. With that grade, it's still pretty high, you know.

ewan said...

hahaha that's nice. being a child can be fun too after all. XD yep, that's right. that's the main reason why i'd want to go back in time too. and not to avoid making mistakes but also do the things i didn't get to do and start them at an early age... like playing the piano, for instance, hehe. :D

yeah, you can learn a lot with it too. one thing that still somewhat bothers me though is that a lot of these culprits come up with the hardest and most complicated tricks just to commit murder. realistically, they won't even have some detective come over their house and commit it while he's around. o.o' but of course, it's just an anime. and anyway, those tricks are interesting too... haha. XD

hmm, for me i think it depends on what kind of bad things. i mean, if the bad things are unbearably horrible, i don't think it'll be that memorable to me. but if they're just silly things, then yes, hehehe. XD haha thanks. my elementary school's grading system is a little different though... the highest is 95 and passing is 75, so around 86 would be kind of average but a little bad too, 'cause it's around the lowest grade i ever got in elementary, which is probably 85 or 84. i don't remember. ^^' hahaha. but since my parents only want good grades, i had to try and keep them at line of 9.

Jhayzelkhulet said...

Yeah... In my case, considering the fact that I want to do many things that I haven't done when I was still young made me thought that returning from the past would be a nice idea. Hehehe... As long as you haven't graduated yet, you still have time to improve yorself even more. And as long as your desire to improve or accomplish something hasn't faded yet, there's a big possibility that you can do anything you want.

Hahaha... It reminded me of CSI that I really love to watch... Anyway, an anime is still an anime that's why any flaws will be excuse. But still, I love watching the part wherein the case is being solve... It makes me think that "So that's how it's done". It's not like I'm interested to commit a crime... I'm really amazed on whoever made this anime.

Jhayzelkhulet said...

Hehehe... Don't worry.... I'm only thinking of pranks or ideas that won't cause any serious harm. Trying to ditch a class is something that I can't even do so anything more than that will be more impossible for me... Talking about lame... Anyway, you're really smart. As for me, my grades during my sixth grade are the only grades that I can be proud of since elementary was not that memorable to me. Hehehe...

ewan said...

ahh, then yeah! i'm all the more for it. hehehe :D same here. even when i'm sick, i still try to go to school 'cause i hate missing classes, especially when they're important subjects. and nah, that's not lame. it's being responsible and aware of your priorities. XD haha thanks. i don't really consider myself smart though. and it's probably not about confidence or anything... i guess my standards are just a bit too high sometimes (or maybe i'm influenced by my parents' standards). hahaha i liked my sixth grade too. i hated 5th grade... that was when i supposedly did something bad and my conduct grade went down, haha. the only thing i didn't like about my sixth grade year is the fact that i got sick really bad and i was in the hospital for two to three weeks. i missed all the fun things in school. :( it was my last year too... oh well. only if time machines actually existed... hahaha. XD

ewan said...

yeah, that's part of my reasons too. now that i think about it, time really does fly by fast if we weren't able to do the things we wanted to do at that time and we realize it's already too late to go back... haha yep, that's true. so far i can't even imagine losing interest in playing. i just regret not having started as early as possible... but it's alright... at least i am interested in it now, still am, and will continue to be as long as possible. XD i played today too until my left hand and arm got tired. playing U&I can be a bit tiring... x_X oh, speaking of U&I, the full version of the song is out. i love it. :D

hahaha that somehow reminded me of a movie where CSI is mentioned. XD yep, that's right. that's one of its advantages from dramas, since dramas have to be realistic and they can't pull off something like that and not be excused. :P hehe. yeah, my mom actually liked it too. when it was aired in the phils we all watched it and made guesses of who the culprit might be. XD yeah, he must've done a lot of research too.

Jhayzelkhulet said...

Same here. Everytime I get sick, my mother always tells me to stay at home and rest. Unfortunately, staying at home is not helping me since all I can think about are the things that I will miss. Staying at home while thinking about school drives me crazy...

Hahaha... You're just too humble... If you don't consider yourself smart then how do you call someone like me who only got average grades during my elementary days except sixth grade. I'm not really proud of it but I'd rather tell the truth rather than pretending. Hehehe... Hhmmm, hospital??? That must be pretty serious for them to take you there. Until now, I haven't been admitted in a hospital... Even seeing what it looks like inside... I get sick all the time but I always try my best to recover so that they won't take me there. Clinic is already enough for me but there was one time that it was really serious that even the doctor from the clinic suggested that I really need to be admitted in a hospital. Despite that, I still refused and they just tried their best to cure me with all those medicines and check ups and told me that I should reconsider if ever they won't see a sign of improvement. I really hate medicines and most of all, I hate injections and blood. I know it's pretty childish of me but needles are really scary and I can't stand seeing blood. Hahaha... You still have your high school days and I can feel that you're doing really well.

Jhayzelkhulet said...

I think it's because children don't mind anything to the point that they don't bother thinking about time. I mean, kids are kids, right?

And I don't think that there's a possibility that you will get tired of it 'cause I can feel that you really love what you're doing... I'm not some mind reader or someone who can predict the future but I can sense it somehow. You really like that song, huh? Well, I can't blame you for that because it's a great song and I'm really sure that it can also be a great piano piece. Almost all the songs from K-On! are really nice. I even set some of it as tones for my cellphone.

CSI is fun to watch too even though it doesn't involve any detectives like Detective Conan. That's right! Anime characters has great advantage. They always look cute and adorable in everything they do unlike the real thing who tries to imitate the anime characters. It's not that I hate the real thing but there are some that makes me feel irritated because of the exaggeration.

ewan said...

that's true. it really sucks when you're sick and you very well know how much you're missing. that's how i felt when i got sick at the hospital and couldn't attend this really fun event at school.

hahaha that's different though... we have different perspectives after all. i don't consider myself smart because i'm surrounded with even smarter people, including my siblings. but that's just for myself. if it's not about me but another person instead, then my standards and views change and vary. haha that's right. living an illusion can be comforting but reality strikes hard. and when you know it's all an illusion to make yourself feel better, you somehow feel worse, so it's best to just accept reality and move on. XD yep. i was sick with dengue. D: i remember very vividly how it happened too. i was at school and we were outside finishing our home economics project. we were close to this little dirty canal, and i guess one of the mosquitoes there bit me 'cause even before i went home that day, i was already feeling really dizzy and sick, and when i got home i was struck with fever right away. it's a good thing we went to the hospital a few days after so it wasn't at a hopeless stage yet. but nonetheless, i still spent weeks there. T_T wow, you must really hate the hospital if you're that willing to stay home instead despite the possible consequences. haha nah, it's not childish. i think i was like that when i was little too, though i'm not that scared of it as i imagine you are. and i shouldn't be 'cause it won't work out for me if i'm planning to pursue something in medical field. ^^'

now that you've mentioned it, you're right. especially for a procrastinator like me... haha.

i like the other songs too and even tried to play them even before U&I. but my version of playing it is just for the sake of being able to play it in some way... so it's not really the best version. ^^' i'm just intrigued by the fact that i use the same pattern for the left hand and it miraculously works on all the k-on! songs i tried to play by ear. XD speaking of k-on! songs, i need to update the mp3 player, haha. XD

hehe that's 'cause they're anime characters. and because they're anime characters, they can do anything and not seem overly ridiculous compared to real people doing it, 'cause they would seem like they're exaggerating and trying hard but they inevitably fail, lol.

Jhayzelkhulet said...

=P Hehehe... It's not just the lessons that I'll be missing... Let's just say that I don't want to be mark as absent in the class. Fun event, huh??? Some school festival?

Well, I guess it depends on your environment and status. My brother is smart especially in math and I'm really proud of him even though I didn't mention it to him. I know, right... You can fool other people but in the end, the truth shall prevail. Besides, it's already a part of my past so yeah, it doesn't affect me anymore. Hhmm, must have been hard for. I mean, dengue can also be life threatening especially if people will just let it slide while thinking that it is just a fever. Arrgghh, I'm just scared of syringes, needles, blood etc. Although, because of some serious disease, I was pushed to take different medicines and the doctor took blood samples from me once in a while. I was really scared because I hate injections and for goodness sake, they took a very large amount of blood from me just to check my status while I'm having difficulty to hide the pain. Hahaha... Because of my fears, taking medical courses was never been my option. I can't imagine myself examining some corpse or participating in surgeries/operations.

It's pretty normal, actually. You know, the "doing whatever you want in your life". Might as well live your life to the fullest instead of doing things that you don't want. But of course, there are things that cannot be avoided.

That's fine. There are people who are dying to learn piano (which includes me) just to play the songs that they wanted to play. I'm really amazed with people who can play piano since it really requires skills and patience. I mean, aaarrgghh, it's so complicated with the hands, fingers and scores. *sigh* As for me, I haven't fixed my laptop yet. The one that I installed was a trial version that's why I'm still looking for a software to reformat my laptop. Because of that, I'm having some troubles on borrowing my brother's computer or the laptop of my mother.

Yeah... But still, they should not overdo it because everytime they do that, it's really irritating to watch. Hehehe... Showing some loyalty and adoration for anime characters, I think. Some may call it bias but as for me, it's just some opinion coming from a viewer. ;D
