Can't think of a suitable title yet so I based it on one of my favorite movie and anime. Pardon my grammars or so on cause I'm not that good in english haha.

Highschool of the Dead CENSORED?
Fujimi High School was attacked by zombies and a group of students who were survivors attempts to escape not only to survive but to figure out the mystery behind the sudden attack and to find out if their parents and loved ones are still among the living.
One of the few anime shows I'm watching right now. It was a long time since I read the manga and I was hoping for an anime version and finally it came. The story is not so bad, imagine not expecting that an ordinary day in school would turn into a nightmare.
After watching the first few episodes one thing I find weird are the zombies not being able to see but they use their sense of hearing for hunting down humans, okay so how is that possible that they don't even use their sense of smell haha.
I also saw less gore but more ecchi >< okay ecchi is not so bad but this is a zombie theme anime so gore is a big factor. It's not fun to see a zombie movie nor a game without it. Then I was told the releases were censored hmm I wonder if it was the same for the gory parts, hopefully yes so I can enjoy seeing the uncensored versions. All in all the story got me going so I'm still looking forward to seeing the next episodes.
Rock Band Beatles version on PS3
Talk about relieving The Beatles fever. I used to listen to them a lot (cassette tapes era), I remember liking The Beatles because of the song Let It Be it was my first (and only) Beatles cassette. Other than that I also like their other songs like Yesterday, Twist and Shout, I Saw her standing there, Here There and Everywhere. After a long time I seemed to have forgotten about them but after playing Rock Band Beatles it was like a flashback experience to me. Unfortunately the songs Let it Be & Yesterday were not included on the game (obviously cause it won't fit haha) but Twist & Shout along with I saw her standing there are included. Singing those songs were fun. Will probably try to sing and play the guitar mode at the same time soon (that is if I can finally memorize the lyrics haha).
Candid Shots (and Chocos)
Another anything goes for the sake of an added entry hahaha...
Since I probably won't be doing a detailed review about chocolates and other pastry stuffs, I'll just post some candid shots of my anime figs (figma in particular) with sweet stuffs and a little something about them :D
POCKY and Lucky Star. This seems to be popular in anime shows, I remember seeing Kagura of Ga Rei Zero eating a stick of Pocky before fighting monsters.
Shana and Melon Bread (perfect combination haha)
Despite shana being my top favorite of all anime characters, I haven't tried eating melon bread yet (and I just borrowed that piece of melon bread from my friend).
Butterfinger and Babyruth. Butterfinger is on my #1 list of chocolate bars, as for Babyruth I find it too sweet and painful because of the large caramel thing inside. And here you see the 3 figs trying to split them XP
Snickers >:) #2 on my list of chocolate bars. Really love choco with nuts haha. Kit Kat tastes good as well, this one however is from the US so it tastes a bit different from the one sold here locally. As for the Oreos I find it too sweet, same for Ho Hos but aside from being too sweet it's a little painful on the teeth as well ><
Cadbury, hmm now I'm wondering if I was able to eat the Gold version.
Anyway will post about food review soon,just need to find and gather the right pics.

Hayate the Combat Butler 2nd Season
premieres 21 July 2010, airing Wednesdays 9pm only on Animax!
The second season continues after the events of the first season, with the luckless Ayasaki Hayate now working permanently as a butler to the incredibly wealthy Nagi Sanzenin, to pay off his debt to her. In addition to fulfilling Nagi’s many demands, the hapless Hayate finds himself the object of affection for Student Council President Katsura Hinagiku, as well as his childhood friend Nishizawa Ayumu, as he remains oblivious to Nagi’s growing feelings for him.
Continuing seamlessly from the first season, expect new characters to add to the comedy, drama and romantic developments in the 26-episode romantic comedy anime series. The direct sequel to the first season, Hayate the Combat Butler 2nd Season is based on the popular ongoing Japanese comedy manga of the same title, with 24 volumes published to-date. It is produced by J.C. Staff the studio responsible for anime hits including Nodame Cantabile and Shakugan no Shana, with director Yoshiaki Iwasaki (Love Hina) at its helm
YES. WE. DID.
Hearing this news really got me excited for the upcoming season. Lebron James alone is more than enough for me but adding Chris Bosh and Dwayne Wade going back to Miami I went WHOA! I just hope they can blend as a team well. So far the only sad thing for me is hearing a lot of criticism against Lebron James for making this decision. I can understand the Cleveland Cavaliers fans but other NBA legends? As far as legacy is concern LBJ has already made a lot like winning MVP honors, becoming a top endorser, a basketball icon, an olympic gold medal and besides he wouldn't be in this position if he wasn't a big star. My take not just because I'm a heat fan, all he wants is a championship ring. Not all great players have experienced that in the NBA, talking about legends like Patrick Ewing, Charles Barkley, Reggie Miller.
I think he doesn't want to gamble anymore like taking chances on being the only star player in one team and end up retiring not winning a championship. Today's level of game is a lot different from the past. So I hope the legends can understand his decision and again it's no longer about the legacy as an individual player but the chance to win a championship.
On a side note:
I've been Miami Heat fan ever since Alonzo Mourning joined them (traded from Charlotte Hornets Glenn Rice). It was years of bitterness and anger for me. I really hated the NY Knicks back then haha. The 2006 NBA Finals was really a classic for, despite being the first finals for Miami Heat it was also their first ever conference and first ever NBA Championship. Only big regret for me was not being able to watch it love on TV cause we had to attend a meeting (which unfortunately was a nonsense meeting ><). Sadly Alonzo Mourning already retired but his last finals game was an epic, disregard the other stats the 5 blocks alone are more than enough for me.

Manny Pacquiao vs Antonio Margarito
I saw once in a video that Margarito was tagged as "The Beast of Boxing". This was during his prime before (and probably after) he gave Miguel Cotto his first ever defeat by KOing him in the 11th round.
Miguel Cotto's first ever loss in his career.
During this time a fight between Pacquiao and Margarito would really be a big one, but it seems Pacman was targetting a big bout with The Golden Boy Oscar Dela Hoya. This was also his first time to move up to welterweight (147 lbs.) if I remembered correctly after his victory against David Diaz he was asked about moving up above Lightweight,he said it depends on his promoter and something like why not but when he was asked about 147 he smiled and said "No".
Anyway just a little something about the past of Pacman. Moving on to Margarito... his next fight was against Shane Mosley. Miguel Cotto back in 2007 defeated mosley in 12 rounds via unanimous decision, he outboxed Shane Mosley. Margarito on the other hand KO'd Cotto, and another thing was mosley is older so we can say he is close becoming an aging fighter back then and I would have bet against mosley on this fight but to everyone's surprise Mosley KO'd Margarito in the 9th round.
Mosley (Left) hit Margarito with a devastating punch.
But before we jump into any conclusions, before his fight with mosley, Margarito and his trainer was caught putting on illegal handwraps (handwraps containing plaster of paris ingredients). Still the fight went on but we see a demoralized Margarito so it might be the factor why Mosley was able to KO him. Margarito was then banned for a year from boxing.
Here we see a worthy opponent for Manny which is Sugar Shane Mosley. For some reasons I don't know why a fight between Mosley and Pacquiao didn't push through, it would have been interesting (I predict a close fight but a late KO win for Manny),instead we were left with...
Pacquiao vs Clottey
Never got me excited we didn't even bother watching it on cinemas like the previous fights. But the Mayweather vs Mosley really got me excited. I would have bet on Mosley but I was surprised at the results. But in my opinion Mosley threw that fight, and since Mayweather won I was expecting it was a hype for a mega fight between him and Pacquiao but unfortunately it didn't push through.
Oops we were talking about Margarito.... if this fight pushes through I'm not yet sure if it's really a worthy fight to see since Margarito came from a 1 year suspension and his last fight was won via decision against an opponent who I'm sure Pacquiao can KO with ease. But to be fair to Margarito, let's just say a 15-20% chance he can be a worthy opponent because his latest victory was probably a tune up to prepare him for a bigger fight but take note that age can be a big factor. For someone older and coming out from a year lay-off that can be a big loss. My take on this one...if Pacquiao is in tip top condition meaning well-prepared for this fight I predict an early KO win for Manny. And yes I'm also saying that the only way Manny can lose to Margarito is if he doesn't prepare for this fight.
(Just to get me started on blogging I had to lessen the details on this entry but will post more soon ^^)
