Alright... that's it... this ends it all...
2001-10-14 08:04:20
I am at a stalemate at this point with my life. I don't know what to do... I have 3 choices:
1. Continue to like the current girl I like as much as I do. My frequent saying is "Ali or NOTHING." Since I don't really understand what love is, I shouldn't say I love her but how I feel about her is the closest thing to what I feel love is.
2. Like her a little less and keep an open mind for other girls. This might be useful if I find a girl that likes me and may change my mind about Alison.
3. Forget about Alison. Drop her from my life also because it will tear up my heart just talking to her or even seeing her at school. Find another girl to look for OR just forget about girls for this whole school year and just concentrate on school, work, skateboarding, my band, and my music videos.
I seriously don't know what to do and I'll be just thinking about those 3 things for a while so if you don't see any new videos from me... sorry. My life with this girl is alot more important than anything of mine.
By the way... all my projects have come to a hault ALSO, because I am going to upgrade my RAM sometime this upcoming week. From just a 128mb/100mhz stick to a 128mb/150mhz and a 256mb/150mhz stick for a total of 384mb/150mhz.
I also may be purchasing a 80 gig harddrive soon within 2 more weeks and with that much space, believe me... I will be making videos alot faster and ALOT better quality with the upgrade of the RAM and the harddrive space. I currently only have a 15 gig harddrive so alot of this editing is hard. Enough of my rambling and GOOD LUCK ON YOUR RERELEASE OF YOUR OLD VIDEO, MARCO!!!

Tantric Excersizes. It's never too young to start...
2001-10-12 10:39:34
Well, tonight's been a cool night. I worked from 4 pm to 8 pm. Then when I got home, my friends called me up and we went to the UH dorms. University of Hawaii, that is.
Anyways, I met my friend's girlfriend there and her friends and they talk about the weirdest stuff I've ever heard. "You have ugly toes, Kelly has small tits, Jodie has fat arms, and I've got a nice ass." What a weird thing to talk about, especially around us guys.
After our little chit-chat with the girls, we went outside and played some hacky sack. I can't believe I still know how to play that game. It's so amazingly addictive and I can't stall for beans.
After that we just went home cause Brandon and Tye have band camp tomorrow so they couldn't stay out late. I got home at 1:09 am and I was bored out of my mind. I decided to start preperation for my next project so I burnt all my asian porn, new amvs, and new divx episodes on to CD. I can't believe I cleared out 8 gigs of space worth of japanese porno. :P
While those were burning, I decided to check out AskMen.com to find out if I could train myself to have multiple orgasms. It's kinda early for me to start thinking about that stuff since I'm 17... but I've gotten some experience already and I'd like to get better. Tantra sounds kinda cool... reminds me of that guy who did Stiffler's Mom in American Pie 2. Check out this article if you want to understand more: http://www.askmen.com/love/love_tip_60/71_love_tip.html
Well it's 4:42 am and I'm quite tired. I made 1 new video review with Failed Experiments in Video Editing by EK from Big Big Truck. And finally, for Marco at Turboneko... I've only got 158 hits on my journal so be happy about your 200+. Yo EK, Hsien, Marco, etc. Can ya'll review my Perfect Blue video?

Why dont you try to fly?
2001-10-11 19:00:48
I just purchased the album, "OSC-DIS" by The Mad Capsule Markets, today from Tower Records. I tell you, it's like Slipknot on Exxtasy. I'm serious... this is like trippy trance stuff mixed with hardcore metal stuff. VERY COOL. Too bad it's all in japanese, then I'd have some clue on what the fuck they are saying.
I got 3 new ideas added to the ideas list. Frick. There's 14 new ideas. Time to kill the crappy ones:
*Flying - "Jet Pilot" by System of a Down / Robotech: The Macross Saga*
Alright this one was just cool cause I thought Robotech was awesome and it's a song about flying a jet. This is such a lame idea now and you know I'm just gonna turn it into an action video.
*Initial Pie - "No Breaks" by The Offspring / Initial D 3rd Stage*
This was a request by one of my Initial D freak friends when I bought the first HK dvd. It's got glitches everywhere. DO NOT BUY IT! I don't know if the english subbed one is better, but one of my friends has it so I'll just ask him some time. This idea is basically gonna be an action video so it has to die. Note the title was something to do with baked foods cause it was thought of back in the day when I wanted all my videos to be named something stupid but was "baked" so that it would tie into my studio name. Kind of like my own little style.
*Burn the Planet - "Bombshell" by Powerman 5000 / Dragon Ball Z Movies 2 and 3*
This was supposed to be a fanboy video for all the little fans, try to make the coolest DBZ video out of something that I absolutly do not find cool. It wasn't something that I was really trying to make for others to impress them... I was trying to see, for myself, if I could push the limits of what DBZ has to offer and make an awesome video. But the song hints of alot of action fight scenes and I don't want to make your average DBZ fight video(I have one more idea with DBZ... but you have to wait to hear about that... believe me... it's so much cooler than any other DBZ video out there).
That brings me down to 11 original ideas, 3 remakes, and 3 major projects(not considering the DDR 2 or AniPara project. I'm gonna do that project first before doing my videos... when I get assigned a song).
Thanks to Hsien Lee and E.K. for the idea to paste old trashed ideas for a journal entry. Oh crap I forgot one more idea that I trashed, just didn't add it to the list when I had the idea...
*Self Righteous Suicide - "Chop Suey" by System of a Down / Neon Genesis Evangelion*
This was supposed to be an original idea... but when I realized that everyone thought it was original, I quit. Well usually I have this thing in my head like I don't give a shit if you did it, I'll do it if I want to anyways. But after hearing the song every day driving to school, coming home, at work, on music videos, on shoutcast radio, in the shower, and even while I'm trying to just lay in the grass and calm myself down(I've had a really emotional time with my parents, the girl I like, the girl who left me, etc.)... I've come to a conclusion that I hate this goddamn song. I'll still try an Eva video later, but this damn song irritates the hell out of me. Plus who has a scene that matches with "why did you leave the keys up on the table?" or "why don't you put on a little makeup?" I have no clue where in EVA you'd find that stuff.
Also lastly, I'm currently planning 2 videos using the same anime and I will release them at the same time. I wont say anything but... they have an interesting concept to them that deals with an old chinese phylosophy.

As I sit here trying to wait for my gate keepers dvd to encode(dvdrip for my bud... he wants to see the quality), it gets kinda boring. I think I'll do a little FAQ thing cause I read ErMaC's and his is quite interesting... time to answer the same questions(note: ErMaC's answers can be found on www.ermacstudios.org)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How come the downloads are slow?
or
I click on the links to download and they don't work!
A: Uh... Alright it's time to skip this one.
Q: Hey I have this cool idea for a video with <insert series here> to <insert song here>!
A: I will help other people if they don't mind seeing my ideas with the combination. I will not do something just because it may look cool to one person(i.e. DBZ to some random Korn song)... though I may just break the rules one day and make a DBZ vid(hint hint). Also I have to like the anime to make it. NO KOR VIDEOS FROM ME YOU CRAZY KIDS!
Q: I want to make music videos!
A: Go for it, but if you steal my ideas. Oh man there is hell to pay! Just kidding, if you end up doing what I want to do... I'll still do it. Also on a side note, ErMaC said something about you have to be able to spend big money to get stuff or it'll look like shit. Uh... my Blu Cheese Cake video came out REALLY good and I didn't even buy that DVD. ;) My whole set up was the Compaq computer I bought 2 years ago with 600 mhz, 128 mb ram, and 15 gigs of space(though now that I have a job I'm going crazy and building a new box). Keep in mind that when I delete everything that I don't need(I HAVE TO DO THAT EVERY TIME I TRY TO MAKE A VIDEO), I only end up with 12 gigs of space at the most.
Q: Why don't you post all your videos?
A: I do, actually. Well I missed my first 3... but that's not something I really wanna remember(dispite one of my friends found my first video on kazaa and I dont even remember sending it to anyone. I dont even have a filesharing program other than audiogalaxy).
Q: Can I redistribute your videos?
A: Sure but don't sell it or I'll chop your penis off and feed it to the fish.
Q: I want to show your video at my anime club/a convention.
A: If so, get in touch with me and I'll hook you up with an untitled copy or a better copy of it, all of my new stuff is from DVD so I dont have to worry about it. Plus I have high quality MPEG2 backups of ALL my videos(even the ones that were made from VCDs... which is a waste of space if I say so myself).
Q: Can you send me your files in email/on CD?
A: Sure if you mail me a CD and give me some money for shipping($4 is general shipping out of Hawaii).
Q: What's your favorite Music Video?
A: My new one I'm planning right now.
Q: OK, what's your favorite video _NOT_ done by you (smartass)?
A: Hehehe I'm a smart ass. I think it's got to be Only In Dreams by More Than Toast, Life Is But A Dream by ErMac, Suicide by KAT Translations, Lord's Prayer by ErMaC, The End Of Me by ErMaC, Reverse Madness by Turboneko, Glory by Maboroshi, Glory Of Love by Kusoyaro, Bitches by Otaku Vengence, Engel by Kevin Caldwell, With Every Light by Kusoyaro, Faith by Kusoyaro, Torn Apart(I don't know who made this one... but it is an awesome action Kenshin video), and finally The Game(I don't know once more... but it's so damn cool cause it's Di Gi Charat).
Q: How long do you spend making your Music Videos?
A: Up to 1 month in preparation(I'm a poor poor high school student) and up to 2 weeks of actual sit down putting it together action. This stuff takes forever when you have to rip specific scenes and then compress it and then do all this other crap. It'd be alot easier if I had a bigger HD.
Q: Where do you get your inspiration?
A: Music. I need a song in my head and then maybe a anime will come along and will catch my attention that I need it for my video with the song in my head. It's ALWAYS song first and then anime.
