JOURNAL: AbsoluteDestiny (Ian Roberts)

  • "He ducked back down the alley with some roly-poly little bat-faced girl..." 2002-04-11 09:31:00 EK: that's both strange and very wrong.

    On the other hand, at least people looking for you on google will find you - I have the misfortune of having the same name as Australia's only out-of-the-closet big gay Aussie rules footballer.

    It's very disturbing.

    Ohhh and here's another joyous thing:

    This will list dozens of Hentai websites who have used usenet posts for their descriptions which means I am listed alongside things that I have actually said on uk.media.animation.anime all for the purpose of advertising FREE CARTOON PORN!

    I *heart* the internet.  
  • "it's better to regret/ something you did/ than something you didn't do..." 2002-04-10 13:16:16 It started when we were
    little kids free spirits but
    already tormented by our own hands
    given to us by our parents we got together
    and wrote on desks and slept in laundry
    rooms near snowy mountains & slipped through
    whatever cracks we can find minds altered
    we didn't falter in portraying hysterical
    and tragic characters in a smog filled
    universe we loved the dirty city and the
    journeys away from it we had not yet been
    or seen our friends selves chase tails round
    and round in downward spiral leaving trail
    of irretrievable vital life juice behind still
    the brothersbloodcomradespartnerfamilycuzz
    was impenetrable
    and we lived inside it laughing with no clothes
    and everything experimental 'till death was
    upon us in our face mortality and
    lots of things seemed futile then but
    love and music can save us and did while
    the giant grey monster grew more poisoned
    and volatile around us jaws clamping down
    and spewing ugly shit around nothing
    is the same so we keep moving....

    we keep moving. 
  • < insert arabic lyrics from the bebop movie that I can't understand here > 2002-04-08 14:23:27 Phade has cursed me.

    In deleting one of my messages on the new forum I am now cursed to forever have to keep logging into the site again and again as php stuff keels over.

    Not only that but when I return, all of the messages in every forum is now unread.

    ><

    I need amv.org v2!!!! I hope it's soon - not being able to keep track of threads is driving me nuts ^_^

    Migrating the forum to a new system will be interesting, though.

    I've only really started using fancier boards recently (I don't have many haunts) and have made myself a nice little avatar, what do you think?

    Well, I like it.

    Oh... still really bored though. I mean, tearfully so. It's probably a sign that I should get back to my FLCL vid.

    EK: good luck with KoHD 
  • "Come here mama....and dig this crazy scene /He's not too fancy....but his line is pretty clean" 2002-04-08 05:22:23 Started on a gift wallpaper for EK this morning.

    I should really stay away from Photoshop... I'm doomed to never be any good at CG. Anyway it was a Vincent wallpaper inspired by the David Sylvian song Darkest Dreaming.

    I'm actually really really really bored at the moment. really.

    I haven't been this bored in a long time... it's not good. It's certainly a contrast to the mad amv-editing of last week with the wedding stuff and so on.

    Anyway, back to boredom... I think I'll do some more piano practice.


    Hsien: ;-; 
  • "surely one more moment couldn't break my heart" 2002-04-07 10:33:21 It's another gift mp3 day!!!

    "Oh no!!!! Not more ear shattering squeaking!" I hear you cry.

    Nope. Not this time.

    This time it's some random UK guy who decided to make garage music in his bedroom (or something). I checked on cdnow and it looks like this track never got a US release, desipte doing really well in the UK last year.

    Anyway, this is a UK garage dance track called "Gotta Get Thru This" by a guy called Daniel Bedingfield. I'm not a great follower of the UK dance scene but this guy really suprised me with an amazing accapella performance of his track on a tv show I saw.

    The version I've uploaded is actually my own personal remix, which starts off with an unreleased acoustic version of the song before the electronics kick in. I was putting it together for a potential amv but I doubt it will ever come to fruition.

    If anyone else wants to do this to an amv - feel free, just give me credit for the mix ^_^ I was thinking either Kare Kano or a various anime vid with lots of different examples of characters in adversity. Anyway, here's the linkage (it's just under 4 meg):

    "http://www.penguinhosting.net/~zettai/Daniel Bedingfield - Gotta Get Thru This (AD remix).zip"

    or if that doesn't work:

    http://www.penguinhosting.net/~zettai/Daniel%20Bedingfield%20-%20Gotta%20Get%20Thru%20This%20(AD%20remix).zip

    As usual, just rename to .mp3 to play
