About the master
In case you actually are interested in finding out some info about me, I made this page. After reading it, you may probably not want to return here again!
Welcome to Version 3.9 of this page!
I am a 17-year-old Filipino-American that loves anime and RPGs. I live in Vallejo, California and attend Solano Community College. As many others in Vallejo know, there aren't that many sources of anime in the city, so my knowledge is limited to TV, the Internet, Blockbuster Video, and libraries. Despite that, you can see a large amount of anime reviews in my anime review section. Now, how did I manage to see so much anime? Well, I bought a couple of videos, I watch TV, and I've nearly rented out the entire anime section in my local Blockbuster Video. Yes, it took out a lot of (my parents') money, but hey, how else am I supposed to get my hands on such anime? That's right- the library. By checking the library catalog at the John F. Kennedy library, I found a few good anime videos for me to review. Well now, that's enough of talking on that matter.
I'm naturally a nice guy. I always am willing to help people out no matter who they are, even if I secretly (or openly) despise them. However, I have limits. I'll never do anything that is against my honor code; this includes stealing, breaking and entering, being arrogant, betraying friends, betraying clients, betraying nice girls, sabotage, murder, lying (excluding white lies), breaking promises, and saying potentially embarassing things for no profit. It used to be that if you pushed me, I'd get pretty violent in a short amount of time. I long for those days, but whatcha gonna do? I'm also a pretty smart guy. My grades are slipping ever so slightly, but I'm still as smart as I ever was. I just don't study as much, that's all. Also, my comprehensive levels are low when it comes to Calculus. So how am I smart? Well, you'll search high and low and still find it hard to find a strategist at card games like me. It's just that with a small amount of fundage, I can't show off my true powers. Also, I suck at chess. I find it hard to see simple patterns in that game. I see it as a "spur of the moment" type of game, and so far I haven't been able to see it any other way. The only time I can get strategic in that game is late into it. I can't think strategically in the first ten turns.
About school... I'm pretty good at that stuff I do there. As you might guess, I'm no good when it comes to P.E. I have a few friends, but the friends I do have (usually) like anime and RPGs. I don't know what the point of that is. I guess I just want to tell y'all that I don't have that many friends because I'm only friends with people that like the kind of stuff I like and doesn't act like a total jackass. There are so many people out there that are just too damn rude. I try to be friendly, but human nature takes advantage of my friendliness too often. Perhaps I'm too trusting, or perhaps people are wrong when they say people like it when you are friendly and mannerful. Is mannerful even a word? Oh well.
Now for a history lesson.... about myself. Oh, I thought that I liked anime five years ago when I was happily watching Toonami, DBZ, Pokemon, and other TV-bound anime, and I further believed that when I stumbled upon DBZ Uncensored. Later on, I began to realize that I knew very little about Japanese animation after going to several anime websites that had references to anime I didn't even hear of; therefore, I couldn't understand the jokes. I still watched anime in the TV, wondering how people get their hands on other anime. Asking questions on the Internet at this point of my life labeled me as a "newbie." I still couldn't understand anything until I one day stumbled upon the discovery that changed my life.... KTEH, a public broadcasting channel, was showing anime (they don't anymore). The anime I watched that day was Please Save my Earth, and it finally got me to realize that there's other anime out there that's better than what I have so far been seeing. Around that time, I got into RPGs and found out why the Final Fantasy series was so cool. After that, I made it my mission to find out more about anime, and so, I eventually found my way here. It took a lot of surfing, it took a lot of money, but I managed to find my way here. What is in for me in the future? Well, for one thing it's getting more money to get me more anime, which in turn brings me happiness. So much happiness. Sure, you can label it as escapism, but it sure as hell beats suicide. With suicide, you don't get to watch anime; therefore, escapism is better, obviously. I would never commit suicide. Hell, the day I commit suicide is the day I die (um, er.., uh... let me rephrase that) the day I consider suicide as an option is the day I go through something no human being alive should go through, and I have no idea what that is.
So anyway, just know that I'm a guy that wastes his money and time on money... AND loving it. I totally love anime, and I know that no matter what career I get, it'll be for the sake of getting more money to finance anime. And I guess later a home.
