To make an impact...


Song of the moment: YUI - My Generation (Seito Shokun! ED theme)

atashi nara mada yareru hazudatte

gisei ni dekinai no wa
komi ageru kibou naku shitara mata michi ni mayou dake

jama nante saretakunai
wakatteiru no kakugo ga areba

itsu datte jiyuu yo

My Dream kowareru koto nante nai kara
machi kirenai kisetsu no naka aruki hajimeta no
utsumuiteta jikan wo tori modoshite
egaita yume wo tsuyoku shinji kireta toki kara kawaru Generation
Sixteen My Dream


(There are still things for me to do.

I won’t allow myself to be a victim,
If it wasn’t for this great rush of hope, I would only lose my way again.

Now that I am mentally prepared,
I will no longer be hindered.

As I’ve always been free.

Because my dreams are unshakable,
In the midst of an impetuous season, I began my journey
To reclaim the time that was lost to diffidence.
Since I entrusted myself to my dreams, this generation has been one of change.
Those dreams at sixteen.)
My Generation by YUI

So what happens when you put 2 ultra competitive people in the same room in front of a PS2? You get an extremely ridiculous show of oneupman-ship to watch, that's what. While I don't want to name any names, those on duty yesterday would know who I am talking about. Even my proposition to end the 'hostilities' ended up adding fuel to the fire. Thankfully, me and Sheng Yang had Fate Tiger Colosseum to pass the time while Jere had to wait for his turn at the PS2.

Speaking of the PS2, Persona 3 (my current game of the moment for PS2) puts a rather interesting spin to the typical action RPG game. BY introducing dating-sim elements into the game, it actively encourages you to think about what you want to pursue instead of just grinding your way to max stats (BTW, it's impossible to grind in the game since it adds a 'fatigue' rating to all your playable characters). There are moments where you'll have to choose between going out to eat ramen with a friend, swim team practice or student council meetings. Sigh...real life was never THIS busy...

Honestly, it was never my intention to actually do so much or go to such an extent to celebrate someone's birthday. I ended up organizing the whole thing, together with my team of 4 (musketeers, legendary heroes, friends or whatever you care to name them...LOL). Their identities shall remain a secret for now till after the event to properly ensure the success of the mission I have entrusted them.

Now, writing this Blog entry, I start to think whether what I am doing is right? Am I getting to far ahead of myself? Of course, my justification is that all I am doing is just planning a party, no big deal. Even friends do this, right?

Right?

I guess it is impossible to justify your own actions. I just don't want to crash and burn like the last time...
