Saimoe 2007: 1st Round 2007-09-12 16:30:26
It’s the time when all of moe lovers will choose whose the moe-est of them all. Yes, Saimoe 2007 is now in full swing. The 1st round voting are almost coming to an end. For those that don’t know, click here to find out more about Saimoe 2007. In a nutshell, its a popularity contest where moe lovers everywhere can vote for the most moe anime character of 2007.
As you all know, I love moe, and since I cannot go without any moe-ness for even a day, that’s why I consider myself an addict. Moe is without a doubt one of the most important sub-set of the Otaku Culture. Moe?…Otaku…? what’s that…some of you may ask. Well, I assure you, they are not made up words. The Otaku Culture is huge. It is cross boundary, spanning the whole globe with its presence. On the business side, it is worth billions of dollars, from the anime and manga right up to the corresponding merchandising.

Death becomes us 2007-09-29 03:49:45 This week Sunday Scribblings prompt is Powerful. So here’s a haiku on what I think is the most powerful factor in our life…
Isn’t mortality
our most powerful
raison d’etre?
It’s a thought that most
will surely shook with fright -
the thought of death itself
we wound up so tight
though it’s inevitable
death comes to us all
we’ll never know
whether we’ll go out with a roar
most will wish it is
or barely just a whimper
as most will do-
just don’t dwell on it
when it all does ends
only our deeds remain
all the good and bad
shouldn’t we leave
a happy memories to
those left behind
instead of just the
lugubriousness
that comes after?
the days we lived
and loved and laughed and cried
please, cherish it all.

Hmm, why all these morbid fascination with death now, well, if you may ask. This is a bit off-topic, but do read on.
I’ve been MIA for quite a few days now. If you all noticed, my last entry was on the 2oth
The Journey 2007-10-01 14:40:29 This week Writers Island’s prompt is “The Journey
“.
This journey
that we’re all taking
is one that has no end,
we all starts with hesitation
and fear
always striving forwards
believing in the future,
just as the world keep spinning on
around the sun
unceasingly,
just as the leaves
that detaches from the tree
will always falls down to the earth,
fly high then
higher than clouds
higher than the birds
over the blue yonder
right up to the black
emptiness of
space,
fly high then
strive for the light
never be afraid to fall
never wonder where you’re headed to
you’ll know when you get there,
never wonder where you’re going to land
for wherever it is
your feet will always touch
terra firma,
and when you do get there
cry out
but not from sorrow
cry out
in happiness
for though your journey might not end yet
you have move forward,
don’t look back
for it might hold you back
don’t hold back
for it might drag you down,
go on
finish the journey
I’m still alive…yeah…^.^ 2007-11-25 23:32:26 Ano&hellip

Actually, my Dell laptop died just before the start of Ramadhan. The only other computer at home was wifey Compaq laptop, but since she’s using it for her thesis, she very adamantly refused to let me use it. So, what this invariably means is that I was left with no computer at all. I can only access the net from work, and since I only blogged in the wee hour of the morning, my existence in the blogosphere almost went kaput.
The death of the Dell also affected my blogging in one other important aspect: I lost access to my own blog! I use a password manager to store all my online password, and well, with out I totally forgot what the stupid thing was. I was told it would be quite easy to reset it, but it involved resetting the mysql db. But to tell the truth, surfing the net during work really do need lots of effort. So suffice to say, it took me all almost 2 whole months to reset the password and get control of my blog back, which I did last week.
So, here is my bl

The Gift of the Soul 2007-09-17 14:34:38 Writers Island’s prompt this week is: “The Gift“. So, here’s a haiku on my interpretation of the Gift.
The gift of the soul
That what would we
consider to be the best gift,
the purest heart is
Without a pure heart
the soul is an empty void
soon, lost dreams prevail
Shadows of a dream
malignant that lingers
living a cursed life
Never dare to hope
desires that scorn the self
have you no pride left?
Why struggle-
for is it not contempt
that awaits you?
It’s human nature
to become wise later -
sad, but it’s the truth
How we all hide now
too scared to face the truth
destruction awaits us
It is not too late
for this soul of ours
to search for redemptions
The gift of the soul
salvation that heals
full deliverance
Embrace your soul now
for we are mortal beings
soon we all will die
Let make our short time
counts, banish all the shadows,
live - have no regrets.
I admit, I have been feeling very lethargic these past few days. Guess, the monotony of work

I Love PPP! 2007-09-14 02:30:51 I was asked this by the PPP team, “Do you love PayPerPost?” “Why?”
Well, of course I do. PayPerPost (PPP) is simply the best! They’re amazing! Why am I saying this? This is because PPP is the only paid posting solutions from all the others that I’ve signed up to that had given me assignments without fail week after week.
Actually, I don’t blog for money. My blog is mainly about my whimsical escape into the land of moe through poetic means. But then, if there’s a chance to make some monies at the same time, why not right?
And the best thing apart from money that I had received after signing up with PPP is extra traffic. PPP is an excellent traffic generation source. Why I say this? Well, since signing up with PPP, the traffic that I get from Google searches on the PPP topics that I’ve signed up to is almost 15% from my overall monthly traffic. The screen shot below is just a few of the Google search that I’d received for Sept.
