Last week of exams + Got me Valkyria Chronicles!!!

Well, actually it ends on Wednesday. Still, I'm thankful that it's going to be over soon. I already did Add Math today, which has 2 papers. How did I do on that subject? Well, I'd rather not talk about it really. But if you do want to know, I did it pretty badly. No, not just badly, I did it horribly. At this rate, I'm kind of hoping that I can pass the subject. At least.

Anyways, in case you want to know, on Tuesday it's holiday because of Wesak Day, a festival celebrated by Buddhists, if I'm correct. And as for Wednesday I only had Chemistry Paper 3 and after that it's learning as usual. I'm kind of hoping that I can find out what marks I got for the subjects I took. Also, for some reason, I keep thinking that tomorrow's Wednesday. Weird huh? :P

Yesterday we went to Mutiara Damansara to buy some revision books at a bookstore called Popular. And since there's a game store nearby, I went there and got, as the title says, Valkyria Chronicles. :D

And bought it quite cheap as well. Only RM140. Okay, maybe not that cheap but certainly cheaper than the ones sold online around here. I've heard a lot of great stuff from this game. Once I saw it in the store, I just had to buy it. Is it as awesome as everyone says? Why yes, yes it is. In fact, it's one of the best RPGs I've ever played. I definitely recommend it to those that owns a PS3 and is looking for a good RPG. Then again, I only played for probably only 5 hours or so. :P Still, this is definitely one game any RPG fans musn't miss. Probably my only complaint about this game so far is that there are too many cutsenes and too little....err, what did you call it? Gameplay? Something like that....still, since each battle took quite sometime, I'm perfectly satified about it.

And that's all I've got for this blog. I hope you didn't get too bored reading it. Probably in the next one I'll tell you the results of my exams.

One week of exams down, two more weeks of it to go!

As the blog title says, my first week of exams are done and I'll have to admit some of the questions are really tough that I err, kind of leave them unanswered in a way. Anyways, now week 2 of May is here and that means it's the second week of exams. Since I'm already done with today's exams (Monday), I'll show you what exams I'll be having tomorrow until Friday.

Tuesday (10/5/11)

Chemistry - Paper 1 (1 hour 15 minutes)
Recess
Chemistry - Paper 2 (2 hours 30 minutes)

Wednesday (11/5/11)

Biology - Paper 1 (1 hour 15 minutes)
Recess
Biology - Paper 2 (2 hours 30 minutes)

Thursday (12/5/11)
Physics - Paper 1 (1 hour 15 minutes)
Recess
Physics - Paper 2 (2 hours 30 minutes)

Friday (13/5/11)
Physics - Paper 3 (1 hour 30 minutes)
Recess
Biology - Paper 3 (1 hour 30 minutes)

These are the subjects that some of the others and I are taking for this week. This week it's basically the subjects that you pick so some cIasses will be taking different subjects from the one I took. I'm rather a little bit worried about Physics and Biology. I'm glad there's no Add Math this week, really. If there's one subject I'm bound to fail, it'll be Add Math. On other news, though, we celebrate Mother's Day yesterday. I didn't really give my mother anything during that day, really but I think that what my mother really wants is for me, my brother and sisters to be successful in life. And that's what I would definitely do. So I'm hoping I'd get good results but then again, I might get a D on one of the subjects. :P I guess that's all I've got for this blog.

Exams here I come!

May is what I'd like to call "The Month of Exams". I don't know why, though it might be because for almost 3 weeks I'll be going for exams. Anyways, tomorrow's Tuesday and that means the beginning of the mid-year exams and that also means I'm going to be here less than I usually do. I (shamefully) stayed online at GameSpot for like the whole day after school and all night as well so I decided to come here for around 2 hours everyday and probably 4 hours on weekends. I intend to do my very best this exams but hey, who didn't want to? Anyways here's how the schedule goes for this week. Mind, I only write down the subjects that I will take for exams this week.

Tuesday (3/5/11)
Malay - Paper 1 (2 hours 15 minutes)
Recess
Malay - Paper 2 (2 hours 30 minutes)

Wednesday (4/5/11)
English - Paper 1 (1 hour 45 minutes)
Recess
English - Paper 2 (2 hours 15 minutes)

Thursday (5/5/11)
Mathematics - Paper 1 (1 hour 15 minutes)
Civic(s) (1 hour)
Recess
Mathematics - Paper 2 (2 hours 30 minutes)

Friday (6/5/11)
History - Paper 1 (1 hour)
Physical & Health (1 hour) (I don't what exactly it means in English, I just use an online dictionary)
Recess
History - Paper 2 (2 hours 30 minutes)

And that's the subjects me and all of the Form 4 students at my school will be taking for this week. Not very many I know, but the difficulty of the exams will probably be high.

And that's the end of my blog, hope you guys didn't find it too dull or boring. And good luck to those that's taking the exams this month. :D

P.S. I'm trying to use less emoticons in my blog from now on so sorry for the sudden lack of it. :P

Exams coming soon and not feeling too well....

Hey guys, I'm not going to be as active as I used to be. As the title says, I've got exams soon at early May (which is surprisingly early) and since the exams this time follows the SPM format (which means that the exams will take about two weeks), I wanted to really focus on my studies and this timemy aim is to get A+ on every subject, although that's going to be difficult to do so on some subjects like Add Math and History but you never know, right? Anyways, if you haven't seen me around, then you'll know that I've been studying. I'm really sorry about it, though.

And as you know, I've been feeling rather ill right now. I think I probably got it from my younger sister, who got fever and a cold a few days ago (on Thursday, I think). And I believe I started becoming sick yesterday (Friday) when I have a pretty sore throat. I think I might have a fever and probably a cold as well. And so far, I've been sneezing quite a lot, possibly more than 10 times, although I've never counted, really. But I'll have to admit, all the sneezing made me feel quite worn out. I would like to say a lot more but I think I'll have a drink and lie down and hopefully I'll be a lot better the next day.

Sorry for the short blog.

My Top 10 most annoying monsters in the Monster Hunter series - Part 2

Sorry for doing this late, just gotten very lazy again. -_- Anyways, like the previous one, they're in no order since I have no idea which one is more annoying than the other. :P Also, the monsters I've been showing are the ones from the PSP series excluding Monster Hunter Portable 3rd. So let's get started.

6. Gypceros

Gypceros

One of the earliest monsters you fought in the series and probably the most annoying. Its attacks are like the Yian Kut-Ku's although a lot clumsier you might say with a few unique attacks of its own. One thing I dislike is it's rubbery hide and as we all know, rubber doesn't conduct electricity and that means weapons with thunder attribute are weak against plus it's also immune to shock traps. I accidently bring shock traps when I fought it sometimes, completely forgetting that it's immune to it. -_- Another thing I hate is the flash attack it uses (which also means flash bombs are useless against it) which can stun you and also makes it able to hit you easily. It can also play dead sometimes which can fool you sometimes into thinking that it's actually dead….until you get near to it. Annoying? Yes. Is it mostly because of my fault? Definitely. =P

7. Bullfango

Bullfango

Bullfangos are a small monster and an annoying one at that. And that's because if they see you, they'll begin to charge at you. Trust me, that's not a good thing, especially when 2 or 3 Bullfangos+ Large monster = you're pretty much dead. And I definitely hate it when one or more of them charge at you out of nowhere just as you're about to attack a large monster or using a potion or something like that.

8. Cephalos

Cephalos

Cephalos are what I'd like to call them as land fish. They swim in the sand so that means they also live in the desert only. Of course, like most small monsters they're most annoying when fighting against large monsters. One thing I find annoying about them is that they can jump and use its spitting sand attack at you and when it starts jumping out of the sand. If you're near it will start attacking you by shooting sand at you and such. I'm rather glad that they only live in the desert.

9. Vespoids

Vespoids

Of all the monsters that have annoyed me to no end, the Vespoids is probably one of the most annoying little insects I've encountered in the MH series. I mean, they almost appear in every single place you went (even though it's only in an area or two but still). Their stingers have something that can paralyze you for a few seconds. And if you're paralyzed, you're in big trouble, especially when you're fighting a large monster. Pesky little bugs but certainly not as annoying as the mosquitoes here in Malaysia. =P

10. Khezu

Khezu

This blob wyvern thing is difficult to beat, both for beginners and advanced hunters. They live places like the Mountains and the Swamp. One of the annoying attacks is its electric balls attack, where it can shoot three electric balls at the same time, though each in a different direction. Get hit by one of them and you'll be paralyzed and lose a ton of health and if you didn't have high defense and thunder resistance armor, it can be a very deadly attack. Another thing I hate is when it covers its whole body with electricity. Fortunately, it can't paralyze you but it can also be a deadly attack if you're not careful. And when it's in rage mode, that's when things started to become annoying since it moves twice as fast and its attacks are also stronger.

And that's the end of my Top 10 most annoying monsters in the MH series. And of course a big thanks to Munchgun for helping me find all of the pictures. :) Thanks for reading my blog!

My Top 10 most annoying monsters in Monster Hunter series - Part 1

Like I said in my last blog, I was going to do this and since I'm not in a lazy mood right now, I figured I might as well do it before I start feeling lazy. :P

While there are plenty of monsters that has become my favourite, some of them bugged me often, especially when I'm fighting a large monster. :xSame as before, the monsters I've been showing are the ones from the PSP series excluding Monster Hunter Portable 3rd. Also, they're not in any order since I have no idea which one is more annoying than the other. :P Anyways, without furthur ado, here are some of my most annoying monsters in the MH series.

1. Melynx

Relative of the Felyne, the cuteMelynx also becomes your chef or your comrade (Monster Hunter Freedom Unite). However, looks can be deceiving because in the wild, they're pesky little thieves that'd steal your items when you least expect it, especially when you're fighting a large monster. Best way to stop them from stealing your items is to carry Felvine with you or wear an anti-theft.

2. Shakalakas

The Shakalakas wore small masks and carry small swords and as small as the Felynes and Melynxs (?). Often they hide under fake mushrooms, cactuses and a piece of ice, which is rather obvious. Still, once they came out of their hiding places, they certainly can deal a lot of damage and especially annoying when you're fighting a large monster, what with their sleep bombs andfake shinies that explode if you try to gather them. Fortunately, you don't meet them until you're in a higher lever quest. And in case you're wondering what Shakalaka is doing with a BBQ spit on its head, that's a King Shakalaka, considered as one of the large monsters. And he's tough, let me tell you that.

3. Hermitaurs

Hermitaurs usually live near where there is water nearby and often hide in the ground or sand. But don't start underestimating them because once they saw you they can move fast and I mean fast justto attack you. They're annoying little crabs when you're gathering stuff and really troublesome when you're fighting a large monster. And don't get me started on that fight with the Daimyo Hermitaur. -_-

4. Chameleos

As you know from my last few blogs, my most favourite Elder Dragon is the Lunastra. However, Chameleos, the combination of a chameleon and a dragon (apparently) has annoyed me to no end. Hit one of its spit attacks and you'll either get fatigue (which lowers your stamina) or your defense gets lower. Jump and it flaps its wings and you're poisoned. It's also known to be thieves although it can't steal any items from me, since I wore an anti-theft armor now but from what my younger sister told me, it steals potions, mega potions, antidotes…basically, anything it can get it's tongue on. Not to mention, it has invisibility as well, making it hard to find where it might be and can easily attack you out of nowhere. The only good about it is its theme, which is awesome and different from most elder dragon themes, by the way. Too bad you can only hear it when it's in rage mode.

5. Gravios

Gravios is like the Basarios, it has hard shells which makes it difficult to deal some damage to it. Unlike the Basarios, it releases sleeping gas around itself instead of poison gas (which is rarely used), which of course causes you to go to sleep. It also can shoot heat beams at you and if don't dodge in time, you'll get massive amount of damage. Even with high fire resistance and defense armor you'd still get a lot of damage. I used a Gunlance against this monster but what with its sleeping gas and its heat beams, it's not an easy task slaying that thing. I did a stupid mistake of guarding while it's using one of its heat beams. Result? I got tons of damage from it. Thanks to that thing, it made me become a gunner as well to slay it. Not the easiest thing in the world but it's certainly better than using a Gunlace andgetting asleep or hit by a heat beam or two.

And that's the end of part 1 of the Top 10. Tomorrow I'll make a part 2 (or Friday, if I'm not too lazy :P ). Thanks for reading my blog! :D

Squeak, Squeak, Squeak, Nya!

I need a title for this blog and well, it comes from this. What, I need something to use as a title, don't I? :P Anyways, it's been days since my last blog. Though it's actually less than a month since my last blog. But the days seem to fly by and before you know it, April comes.

Life

On Monday, when I woke up and look at the clock, it's 6:50AM. I was shocked because that means I only have about 15-20 minutes before school begins. I went parents' room and found my mother was still sleeping. I woke her up and well, she was surprised to find out that it's about 6:50AM. Fortunately I got ready for school quickly and ate a little bit of breakfast before I went to school. Fortunately I wasn't late so everything's all right.

On Thursday though, I believe I woke up at around 6:10AM, although I never did actually look at the clock or whether I was sure that I woke up at that time, actually. :? Anyways, I went back to sleep and by the time I woke up, it was 7:30AM and it was too late to go to school now. I was kind of have little to no motivation to go to school. Fortunately all of my younger brothers and sisters go to school in the afternoon and come home in the evening so I'm the only one that didn't go to school. In fact that's the first time I didn't go to school this year. But I did study the subjects I should've learned today, though it is rather tempting to stop studying and play the DS when it's right beside me. =P

On Sunday, my family and I went to a shopping complex mall/store (I have no idea which) because my mother wanted to fix her hand phone which is broken along with her iPad/iPod (again, no idea which) Touch. My mother said I can have the iPad/iPod Touch for getting 7As in PMR. A little bit of a late present, but I don't mind, really. :DAnd there's also a game store nearby so we went there as well. I asked (more like my sister, since I was rather shy) them if they have Pokemon Black but unfortunately they don't. :(I remember they said that because of something about the 3DS, I believe. Of course, they didn't sell it, since it was way too expensive. I think it costs around RM 1400 something along with 4 free games. It's probably worth a lot more though I can't remember the exact price. Sounds like a pretty good deal to me but there isn't any games that I'd like to play right now, except Rayman 3D. My sister got Metal Gear Solid: Peacewalker, though it's mainly because of this.

Games

I've nothing much to talk about this really. XD In Monster Hunter Freedom Unite, I've been attempting to slay or capture a high rankthe Rathalos. I don't have much luck though because when he's in rage mode the damage he deals become twice as strong. O_O Wonder if that's a usual thing in high rank quests…

I've also been playing Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time. I already finished the story and currently I'm doing the special episodes. I really enjoy this game, mainly because it reminds me of Chocobo's Dungeon 2 for the PS1 except that game is better than Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, in my opinion. ^_^

Anime

I kind of stopped watching anime again. -_- But if I'm in the mood again, I'll probably watch Detective Conan from where I left off, which is around episode 300, if I'm not wrong and Angel Beats, which I haven't even started yet. :P

So that's all I've got for this blog. Tomorrow or Wednesday, I'll make my Top 10 most annoying monsters in the Monster Hunter series. :D Soon as I'm not too lazy to do it. :|

My Top 10 favourite monsters in the Monster Hunter series

Hey guys. I've been thinking of doing this blog for the past few weeks but usually I'm just too lazy to do it. :P Since it's now the holidays here, I've plenty of time to do this blog. Remember the monsters I'm showing are ones that I played on the PSP with the exception of Monster Hunter Portable 3rd which I have never played before. Now, let's begin with number 10.

10. Yian Kut-Ku

Yian Kut-Ku

The Yian Kut-Ku is one the first large monsters a hunter would encounter in the Monster Hunter series and also one of my favourite monsters to slay or capture. I never had a weapon or armor from it but for being the first large monster I've fought, I think it deserves a spot here.

9. Diablos

Diablos

While the Diablos is probably hated by many, this monster has become one of my favourites and also one of the very few monsters where I would use a Gunlance as my weapon to slay it. And there's nothing better than fighting two Diablos in one quest at the desert, one with normal colour and one black. I prefer the Black Diablos though, just because it looks awesome. :3

8. Kirin

Kirin

It looks like a unicorn as you can see. An electric one. :| The Kirin is an Elder Dragon and one of the few that will not flee once you had dealt enough damage to it. In other words, the quest will continue until you kill it. The Kirin is also the smallest Elder Dragon in the MH series. It's also maybe the only monster where I use a Hunting Horn against it (although I may use it against other monsters. I can't remember). The Kirin can summon lighting, whether around itself, in front of it or at a hunter. If you didn't equip an armor with high thunder resistance, you're pretty much in big trouble.

7. Kushala Daora

Kushala Daora

Known as the Elder Dragon of Wind, Kushala Daora is the first Elder Dragon that I had fought. And let me tell you, he's not an easy one to beat. It can whip up a wind barrier around itself, making it difficult to deal some damage to it. Your best chance to hit it is its head. You could also poison it or throw a flash at it in order for the Kushala to stop using its wind barrier temporarily. Of course, the best way to stop its wind barrier for good is to break its horns. The Kushala has its ownthemealso suits it pretty well.

6. Blangonga

Blangonga

A monster that should not be underestimated by hunters that first fought it. Leader of the Blangos, the Blangonga can move and attack quickly and if you didn't time your attacks and dodges right, this one will be one of you worst nightmares...at least until you beat it. :P Despite being rather difficult to beat it sometimes, the armor that was made by it has snow resistance, which is useful against the Kushala Daora in the Mountains, quake resistance and low cold resistance. So it's worth all that trouble in the end.

5. Lao Shan Lung

Lao Shan Lung

The Lao Shan Lung is the second huge Elder Dragon I've fought and repelled in the Monster Hunter series. And despite it not attacking you, (except at some points of the quest, whether intentionally or unintenionally) it has a lot of health and if you don't equip a strong weapon, you pretty much won't be able to complete the quest. Unlike most Elder Dragon quests, you have to protect the fort from it and you either have to repel or if able, kill it (although I've never done that before). Possibly one the reasons why I put him in that spot is mostly because of this theme was played in Area 5. I said possibly. :3

4. Basarios

Basarios

Lives in the Volcano and the Swamp, this is one the few monsters when I use a Gunlance against him. Basarios has a hard shell which repel most attacks and like some monsters, it can also charge at you but rather slow. In fact, compared to some monsters it's possibly one of the slowest moving monster I've encountered and prehaps also the easiest to fight against. :P Still, it can release poison or sleeping gas around itself so it's still harder to fight than the Yian Kut-Ku.

And now we've reached to the Top 3 of my favourite monsters in MH series. :D

3. Yian Garuga

Yian Garuga

Once a fearful foe in Monster Hunter Freedom 1, now it's one of my most favourite monsters to slay. While it looks like a Yian Kut-Ku, it's attacks are a combination of Rathian and Yian Kut-Ku with a few unique attacks of its own. In Monster Hunter Freedom Unite there are two types of Garuga, one with two ears and one with just one ear. Personally I prefer the one-eared Garuga because it looks a lot meaner for some reason. :? Sometimes I loved killing it for fun even though I don't really need its materials and such. :P The Garuga is one of the non Elder Dragon that has its very own theme, even although it's not my most favourite theme.

2. Lunastra

Lunastra

While both the Lunastra and the Teostra has the almost same attacks. I prefer the Lunastra between them two. In fact, Luna is my most favourite Elder Dragon to fight against, being a Fire Elder Dragon and all that. The armor made using the Lunastra's materials has anti-theft, which is perfect for going against theft-loving monsters. Even though she's fun to fight against, she's also an Elder Dragon you shouldn't underestimate. If you didn't equip an yourself with high fire resistance armor, you're pretty much toast. Besides that, Luna also has one of my most favourite themes in the MH series.

And now, my number 1 favourite monster in MH series is...

1. Tigrex

Tigrex

On your first fight with him, you'll most likely get tossed and thrown around by this monster quite a lot of times. Being an agile wyvern this monster is quite difficult even for the ones that have fought him many times. One of its attacks from what I remember is that it can charge at you and then it will turn around and charge at you again. It can also throw boulders at you and its roar can also hurt you if you're near enough. And if it's in rage mode, then that's your queue to stop attacking it and start running because once it's angry, it becomes faster and you could get killed easily. :| So you have to perfectly time your attacks else you'll probably be his next lunch. :P The Tigrex also has his own theme.

And here are the monsters that didn't make it into the Top 10:

Shen Gaoren

Teostra

Hypnocatrice

Monoblos

Rathalos

Rathian

And that's my top 10 favourite monsters in the MH series. I hope you enjoyed it. And a big thank you to my friend Munchgun for helping me finding all of the pictures. Your reward...*releases an army of Melynx* :| Thanks for reading my blog! :D

Usual stuff and...holidays!

Koolkat14 here, to bore you guys with my dull blogs. No really, they are dull. Right? :| Anyways...

I've got almost all the paper marks and overall, it's not bad as I thought it will be. Got about 2 A+, a few As, one A-, Some B+ and B and one big fat E. Well, not exactly big and fat. Fortunately E means I passed but JUST barely. If you want to know at what I got an E, you're going to have to guess. :P If I fail though I would get a G. :| I think they use the grade G because G is equal to "Gagal" which means fail in Malay. :P At least, that's what I think. :?

As you saw in the title, holidays are here in Malaysia at last. :D But that doesn't mean the teachers are going to let us go without giving us homework of course. :| One of my plans for the holiday was to finish my homework in the weekend so that I won't have to do it at the last minute like what I used to do in the last holidays. It's something me and my younger sister had planned together. After that, it's all games, watching anime, coming here often and doing a little bit of revision, hopefully. :P

For games, well I've been playing Monster Hunter Freedom Unite a lot. I'm almost at HR5 but I need to complete the Urgent Quest which is repelling or killing the Ash Lao Shan. And let me tell you that the monster is a lot tougher to beat than I thought it would be. I already did more than 3 tries (I think, never really did count) I'm deciding whether I should be a Gunner or a Blademaster to go against this beast. :| The reason why is because I usually am a Gunner against huge monsters now, with the exception of going against Shen Gaoren on my first few tries (and won :D ) and the Lao Shan Lung for a few tries (and lost :( ).

As for anime, well there's no need to tell you what I'm watching do I? :roll: :P I might try watching Angel Beats, though. I heard it's good.

And that's all I got for this blog. :D

The exams are over

And I can finally relax...or at least for a while. Overall I think I did it pretty well, not too great and not to bad. The ones that I did well are Mathematics and Chemistry, ones that are okay are Biology and Physics and ones that are just horrible are Add Math and History. Of course, it's not really that bad but I didn't do it as well as I hope. The rest well, I'm too lazy to talk and I don't want to remember how bad I had done in some of them. :P Andnow Add Math is currently my worst enemy. :P True, I needed to do a lot revision but really, it's like they're trying to make you confused on purpose. Some of my friends in the class wanted to drop Science Stream and pick another. I'm not sure if they even can do so now but apparently they can but they certainly are going to have a lot of catching up to do.

Lately I've been playing a lot of Little Big Planet 2 but that to be expected, right? :P But really some of the levels are done quite well and the creators who did it are geniuses. One of my most favourite level was this one. I also decorate my pod twice and here's how my pod looks like now. I also finally got my Hunter Rank up in Monster Hunter Freedom Unite after staying in the same Hunter Rank for months. And it's all because I haven't completed the Gravios quest that caused me to being a Gunner to complete the quest. :roll: In order words, I just plain hate the Gravios but I hate the Chameleos a lot more than the Gravios. :x

For anime, I've been watching Detective Conan until episode 258. In other words I've been watching that and nothing else. Yeah I know, I suck. :roll: I've decided to try and catch up to the latest episode which is...episode 606. :| So I've still got a lot more episodes to watch.

That's all I've got for this blog.

See ya!
