Sorry about that. Still, I hope you enjoy these.<br /><br />Like I said, it's for a project with the gang from Réseau Gamer. One of the members of the team is going to make an RPG using us as main characters. He's making it with RPG maker or something. Any who, I was inspired by that project to draw a couple of drawings. I don't know if he can use them -- I should probably scan them and send them to him -- but at least he could use them as character design reference.<br /><br />Anyway, here they are;<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhb9HfIlEepY2yW8tm5UWO4rxhsXNQ4t5BaIPOL8-7Z2iOSO51fNmbRQsvaQTSnixC6fHMbnL0cigKts5x15c_zg_4Q0AW8EPabysUmyzBAWzI1Y8Tni5SDgpqTVvpXSdiOeylGsU2DBZc/s1600/RG+RPG+004.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhb9HfIlEepY2yW8tm5UWO4rxhsXNQ4t5BaIPOL8-7Z2iOSO51fNmbRQsvaQTSnixC6fHMbnL0cigKts5x15c_zg_4Q0AW8EPabysUmyzBAWzI1Y8Tni5SDgpqTVvpXSdiOeylGsU2DBZc/s400/RG+RPG+004.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5687978325243337730" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9p5409r0NiXxXldV6EgGuo7vJHgPMxoShJvtUNXW8Re28Zfeg-iE4ejcjrwrZASoSxcLM5fsX3kWtd67ETDM9h67lccqRhBdYIuvK5Hf9rwDGeg0NdZUcyV5Tb_FrkbFJBQTOUjXkZWs/s1600/RG+RPG+005.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9p5409r0NiXxXldV6EgGuo7vJHgPMxoShJvtUNXW8Re28Zfeg-iE4ejcjrwrZASoSxcLM5fsX3kWtd67ETDM9h67lccqRhBdYIuvK5Hf9rwDGeg0NdZUcyV5Tb_FrkbFJBQTOUjXkZWs/s400/RG+RPG+005.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5687979404197610242" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Until the, this is me signing off.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFzGSU2_Z_PbmVnFwN0pcOche95b3TDc5e4BziF7MgQjvXL00RKesEYXcJQqQbkDP_g4etX-9IDtw5mvlwvX78qOF1fsiVq-ex0zv3phJOxXbTqSBhdrvt3ge4lQkf3Pd-5MN7uoHNPyI/s1600/Matamitene.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFzGSU2_Z_PbmVnFwN0pcOche95b3TDc5e4BziF7MgQjvXL00RKesEYXcJQqQbkDP_g4etX-9IDtw5mvlwvX78qOF1fsiVq-ex0zv3phJOxXbTqSBhdrvt3ge4lQkf3Pd-5MN7uoHNPyI/s400/Matamitene.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5687978572554869314" border="0" /></a>NaomiPaulPoruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07462875907072013197noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461284906312190932.post-15565976515192047372011-12-17T13:31:00.009-05:002011-12-17T13:51:22.465-05:00Not dead yet!Hey all,<br /><br />I've just noticed that it's been a while since I posted something up here. And so I've decided to come and give you a bit of a heads up. I've been keeping busy, what with writing for <a href="http://reseaugamer.com/">Réseau Gamer</a>, writing fiction, playing games and watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer with J on Netflix. (Before that it was Murder She Wrote... don't ask.)<br /><br />Still, all this time I kept thinking that I should post something for you guys to read, assuming of course my blog is at all followed. I think the only people that follow this thing is my sweetheart J and a couple of my friends. But my first love of writing did come through my blog, so I shouldn't be giving it up totally.<br /><br />I do have an ulterior motive for putting up a post. I just drew a couple of pictures that I need to share with some people on the team of Réseau Gamer and since I can't put up the pics directly into the forum, I decided to use this instead. Also, I draw. Ooo pretty. ^-^<br /><br />So in anycase enjoy these pics and expect a real post soon.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieHpJmwrKm2OkUpWyZ-RGy2R_FBZWpW7qCdUepxTLhHvgl6BDEm2AiwZXJfQvbPNB_Mtf-QiLE2jjEguyb8gJwk6J50ritqvcKsstK8V2iMohZYSirW4aO6zqMCCUQmT67IuG00Qz1GM8/s1600/100_1350.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 501px; height: 334px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieHpJmwrKm2OkUpWyZ-RGy2R_FBZWpW7qCdUepxTLhHvgl6BDEm2AiwZXJfQvbPNB_Mtf-QiLE2jjEguyb8gJwk6J50ritqvcKsstK8V2iMohZYSirW4aO6zqMCCUQmT67IuG00Qz1GM8/s400/100_1350.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5687169955929299090" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4b6Q_fj5FTgeLSToBnJVHO5SOfc0QhR-uHaCc60lXJlQMAVJqyp_YQeOybdB_hIkWb0QVYpDeP2h1hWiVB4_RCy7COQJe80nIF7NUfREsNbp3F2Man0KglboZJpQWpO3xoeKjTHm9ncM/s1600/100_1348.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 334px; height: 499px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4b6Q_fj5FTgeLSToBnJVHO5SOfc0QhR-uHaCc60lXJlQMAVJqyp_YQeOybdB_hIkWb0QVYpDeP2h1hWiVB4_RCy7COQJe80nIF7NUfREsNbp3F2Man0KglboZJpQWpO3xoeKjTHm9ncM/s400/100_1348.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5687171070758391090" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuL2rYBQX-BDLZ_GlH0eaC9J4KG6XvK-_x0GhLPg6OU7R67u16g_tm80h5Wqze-Bl6RBiqARTvIwuAcS4e_hBByMo4oenkGPTOM0lG3SvH3XFbdX73AMtjvf9TBysBJA1jNEdqL66r9Uk/s1600/100_1349.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 336px; height: 503px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuL2rYBQX-BDLZ_GlH0eaC9J4KG6XvK-_x0GhLPg6OU7R67u16g_tm80h5Wqze-Bl6RBiqARTvIwuAcS4e_hBByMo4oenkGPTOM0lG3SvH3XFbdX73AMtjvf9TBysBJA1jNEdqL66r9Uk/s400/100_1349.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5687171433639528866" border="0" /></a><br />Until then this is me signing off.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0U2v9v4hq-leHzg6SUeVWw_hj5sM1CW_Wig-VwlTqeBOxnP51mLXo_hRAciBBfvLfExHeyuJI0nCTScrkJKtVnY_ACUP7QAl2XI0NgIdJfz66Ec-gszlni1dpw3mGfSeEOxmoa6iPz2U/s1600/Matamitene.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0U2v9v4hq-leHzg6SUeVWw_hj5sM1CW_Wig-VwlTqeBOxnP51mLXo_hRAciBBfvLfExHeyuJI0nCTScrkJKtVnY_ACUP7QAl2XI0NgIdJfz66Ec-gszlni1dpw3mGfSeEOxmoa6iPz2U/s400/Matamitene.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5687167017426855298" border="0" /></a>NaomiPaulPoruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07462875907072013197noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461284906312190932.post-68655331039863254262011-08-14T15:22:00.006-04:002011-08-14T19:49:29.388-04:00Saturday Morning CartoonsHey all,
<br />
<br />Yes I haven't written here in a while... sew me. :P But in my defense... come to think of it I have no real defense so let us just attribute this to laziness or procrastination. ^-^ And I've been on a vacation last week so whatever.
<br />
<br />Anyway, I figure it's only fitting that I bring you a Saturday Morning Cartoon for your troubles of waiting. This time I'll put a lot of them as per my usual apology. However they all come from the same cartoon. Kind of. Anyway, without further ado, I present to you:
<br />
<br /><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kid_video">Kidd Video</a>
<br /><object height="349" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/9YzChZTqxDU?version=3&hl=en_US"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/9YzChZTqxDU?version=3&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="349" width="425"></embed></object>
<br />
<br />So as you can see the premise of the show was that a bunch of teens -- or young adults -- who are part of a band get sucked into the cartoon world by this evil dude who wants them to do musical labor work for him.
<br />
<br />Now since this was obviously a band that was formed for the purpose of the show, they kinda had to show some of their work at the end of the episodes... which turned out to be pretty decent. Here's a glimpse at them.
<br />

<br />
<br />Yeah I guess that should be enough to tide you over. ^-^

<br />Until then, this is me signing off.

lang="EN-CA">As you can see by the title, I got myself one of those mini laptops. The reason for this purchase you ask. The simple fact that I’m starting to have this itch to write more and more now. Why? I just don’t know, but if I ever find an answer, you guys will be the first to know.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%; mso-ansi-language:EN-CA" lang="EN-CA">This itch is so great that as of now I’m supposed to be going back to work but I’m writing this instead. Ugh! I guess I have to go back now….</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%; mso-ansi-language:EN-CA" lang="EN-CA">Okay, I’m back and on my lunch break. I hear what you’re saying though. You guys are wondering that if I’m starting to write again, then why I am not writing more on my blog. Well that’s because I have more then one project going. See I have this blog here, I’m also writing on a French gaming website that my friend started, and I also have a project for a book and a short story – although I’m taking my time with those two things. </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%; mso-ansi-language:EN-CA" lang="EN-CA">Yeah I know. A book. Pretty ambitious aren’t I? The thing is, I didn’t mean for it to be a book. I just started writing something that I thought would be a short story and it turned out that it wanted to become something longer. I don’t know if it will be one of those big brick of a book. But it just wasn’t a short story. I still have a lot of it that I need to transcribe on a word processer; I had started writing it in a spiral notebook. A notebook is fine when you have short ideas or texts like this blog you want to write, but when it comes to a book, the less transcribing you do the better. (Dam, I should do a chapter when I get home.)</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%; mso-ansi-language:EN-CA" lang="EN-CA">Scratch that, the less transcribing you do of any text, the better it is. The thing is, since I started writing for the gaming website I need a lot of my spare time to game so I can write about them. And sometimes I have a lot of down time at work. Hence the recent purchase. Now I can use that down time to write what I want without worrying too much about putting it back on the computer afterwards. I just copy and paste. And I’m seriously thinking about getting wireless internet for it too so I can write straight on my blog or the websites forum when I want to. Oh so many possibilities. ^-^ I just hope nobody from work catches on to what I’m doing. Well, I guess if I respect my breaks and everything I should be ok. </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%; mso-ansi-language:EN-CA" lang="EN-CA">But sometimes it’s hard. As I’m writing this there’s only 10 minutes left before the end of my break and I need to go back to work. But the thing is, I don’t feel that it’s enough. I want to continue sitting here and write until I have nothing more to write about. I know it’s pretty crazy. And all good really. For the last couple of years, I kind of felt that there was something creative missing from my life. I thought it was drawing and/or painting. But it turns out that it’s writing. </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%; mso-ansi-language:EN-CA" lang="EN-CA">The thing is when I was in high school I never really liked writing… much. I add much because that statement is not totally true. I didn’t like writing about stuff that I didn’t want to write about. And coincidentally, I didn’t like reading. I’m not adding much to this one because it was true. I would rather read comic books then read a novel. But apparently that is also reading – even if most of the text is surrounded by a lot of drawings. But in the past several years, I’ve started to add books to my reading. And although I’m sure they’re not all master pieces – I’ve read all of the Harry Potter series. Shut up it’s pretty good – at least I’m reading. Which is the one thing that you need to do when you write apparently. Or so Stephen King says in his book On Writing given to me by my lovely J. on my birthday. (Thanks again baby. ^-^)</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%; mso-ansi-language:EN-CA" lang="EN-CA">Anyway, again the clock says I need to go back and I don’t want to.

What can I say? I just love superheroes. And my favorite one is Spider-Man.<br /><br />Perhaps in a small way I kinda fell a kin ship with him even after my coming out. And no I don't do whatever a spider can. I'm talking more about the fact that he has to keep himself hidden from the rest of the world. And I guess also the living with the consequences of your actions aspect of the comic his very strong for everyone. Or at least for me. (With great powers, comes great responsibilities.)<br /><br />I think that's what makes him so popular. He's not a super powerful hero, but he his very human. It's a wonder he didn't have a burn out at the age of 18 what with going to school, helping with his aunt May's money problems and fighting off the Sinister Six. I think that when the odds are against you, just look at Spidey's life. He may be just a fictional character in a comic. But if you take a look at his life, I'm sure you can find solace in yours by saying: "Well, at least I don't have to fight an eight limbed octopus man and a rhino man at the same time."<br /><br />I'm just saying.<br /><br />Until then, this is me signing off.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvhmaqMY4cGcB1upl7OjJAWvGdlngNFpB1Wkvlc0ah4bar9ivQq_HTPPMXpdkNgB5UjSWsD1RpTJXC2riGUe8YxHlVFEkdGwE0d2tY6ui8mLp1t8v02mhppsMZE9sM1bUXarbm3pR-ijk/s1600/Matamitene.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvhmaqMY4cGcB1upl7OjJAWvGdlngNFpB1Wkvlc0ah4bar9ivQq_HTPPMXpdkNgB5UjSWsD1RpTJXC2riGUe8YxHlVFEkdGwE0d2tY6ui8mLp1t8v02mhppsMZE9sM1bUXarbm3pR-ijk/s400/Matamitene.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5622509977656306962" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Bonus:<br />There was also two live interpretations of Spider-Man way before the movie came out. While the one that's made here was kinda obvious since there was other superheros on North American TV, like Batman and Wonder Women, the one that was made in Japan is kinda puzzling. Especially since he had a giant robot with him.

Like he said, he's never seen something like <a href="http://www.ign.com/">IGN</a> for the french gaming community and he thought that it would be cool to try and do something like that. Of course right now it's just volunteer work and it's a really low key to start with, but with hard work, I believe the project could be very beneficial.<br /><br />And so, this marks the first time that I publish my writing online in my native french Canadian language. Actually, come to think of it, not exactly. I did a blog post in french over at my old blog -- which died by the way. However, it wasn't so much an original text more than a translation. It was something warning women to be careful about something I can't remember and I thought it was important to pass along the message in English and French. Ok so this marks the first time I publish an original text in french.<br /><br />I am also quite proud of myself because I told my friend that if I do this, I present myself the way that I am. I didn't have to say it was non-negotiable since he said he had no qualms regarding that and said that if people had problems with this, then that's their problem. he was quick to ask me not to make a big deal out of it though. He figured that I'd do what I do and if people would find out, well we'll let the chips fall where they may.<br /><br />I agreed to that and added that I had no trans agenda for the gaming site -- I already have this site for that -- and that it would be and will be games first and game related stuff. I did however tell him that I would talk about me to the rest of the team out of respect. He said that it was ok by him.<br /><br />And so I did. And so far so good. I just hope that the rest of the team will show me as much respect as I show them.<br /><br />As for not presenting myself to the public of that site. Well after each entry I do, there is a brief description of who I am with a picture -- the picture with a Chinese parasol. While I do agree I look feminine in that pic, I still think I look kinda guyish. So I figure that by looking at my picture people will be able to tell pretty quickly.<br /><br />Perhaps the subject of my true identity will be discussed eventually in the forum. Who knows? At that point I'll figure out what to do -- which is pretty easy to think about really. ^-^<br /><br />Until then this is me signing off.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYSDwPFh1LQFdGSvF6QC6R9zkQpgIGRM38Mo80LR3QYXPrXc3xbagqEdPX1fGhTF_Ggx8QUZOcZ1V4VDKGZgVA_M-cqC9EJKibxPak83FoM0dvI8y5zE73bPG74YTaf7HMVmz340CMmU4/s1600/Matamitene.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYSDwPFh1LQFdGSvF6QC6R9zkQpgIGRM38Mo80LR3QYXPrXc3xbagqEdPX1fGhTF_Ggx8QUZOcZ1V4VDKGZgVA_M-cqC9EJKibxPak83FoM0dvI8y5zE73bPG74YTaf7HMVmz340CMmU4/s400/Matamitene.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5614383612219926498" border="0" /></a>NaomiPaulPoruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07462875907072013197noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461284906312190932.post-20959863315635931992011-05-28T10:06:00.004-04:002011-05-28T11:27:25.635-04:00Saturday Morning CartoonsHey all,<br /><br />Another cartoon that I liked that was more geared towards girls was <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/She-ra">She-Ra: The Princess of Power</a>. It was basically <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/He-Man">He-Man</a> but for girls and, like many cartoons of the 8o's, a half hour commercial for toys. Tell you what though, I'll put bought of them up here so there won't be any fight -- but I'm putting She-Ra first. ^-^<br /><br />She-Ra<br /><object width="480" height="390"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/wR65P73X5GI?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/wR65P73X5GI?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="390" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object><br /><br />He-Man<br /><object height="390" width="480"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/7yeA7a0uS3A?fs=1&hl=en_US"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/7yeA7a0uS3A?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="390" width="480"></embed></object><br /><br />Interesting fact. I used to have a lot of He-Man toys actually, (Remember, I was born a boy and I actually had all the Rambo toys too.) And when She-Ra came out I totally wanted her. My parents where kind of reluctant at first since it was considered a girl toy. But I convinced them by saying I wanted her because she was He-Man's sister. Although with hind sight, I think I had ulterior motives for wanting it. *grins*<br /><br />Until then this is me signing off.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQhYZsmHVTiPmArhpoVhFwo_NcI4vNZ8vWCzutM30Fs4m0MxicYv5Th6MrGLswMhs0t_28FeXVKyuRxBuccjHHrNZmWrhovIZkXRLLr7ZPEoOr4SUSP5P_WMKl_XiOOv_Puun0uoEhBrA/s1600/Matamitene.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQhYZsmHVTiPmArhpoVhFwo_NcI4vNZ8vWCzutM30Fs4m0MxicYv5Th6MrGLswMhs0t_28FeXVKyuRxBuccjHHrNZmWrhovIZkXRLLr7ZPEoOr4SUSP5P_WMKl_XiOOv_Puun0uoEhBrA/s400/Matamitene.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5611785524007740290" border="0" /></a>NaomiPaulPoruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07462875907072013197noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461284906312190932.post-55765265611719641932011-05-23T08:54:00.007-04:002011-05-23T10:30:48.731-04:00Saturday Morning CartoonsHey all,<br /><br />So you might of noticed that a lot of the cartoons I've put up since now have been more for boys. Or rather cartoons that boys would be more interested in considering the subjects of the shows. But being a geeky Tgirl, you have to realize that most of the stuff that is interesting for boys are also interesting to me. That being said, I did like some cartoons that had more of a girl audience in mind.<br /><br />And one of them that I think was very much influence on me being a Tgirl was <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jem_%28TV_series%29">Jem</a>. No I'm not saying that she looked like a transvestite... even though she dressed very much outrageously. But I did like all of the stuff that she was wearing in the show and I also was very jealous of that -- I kept thinking; 'Why won't I be able to wear those beautiful dresses.' Little did I know at that time that it was actually possible. ^-^ So without further ado, I present to you the intro to Jem.<br /><br />Jem<br /><object height="390" width="480"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/JNqrWm1M3Sc?fs=1&hl=en_US"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/JNqrWm1M3Sc?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="390" width="480"></embed></object><br /><br />See what I mean.

I went to visit my parents since it was also the long Easter week-end. They got a camera. Not a super high end one. Just a normal one, but it does have 10 megapixels or something like that. ( I'm not one that knows much about cameras. ) Still, this is a pretty cool gift-- that along with J's gifts of Assassin's Creed Brotherhood and Stephen King's book On Writing. ( Yeah, the other day I started writing something and she thought it would be a good gift to give me. ) I'm quite happy about the camera though since I didn't have any of my own.<br /><br />I know what you're thinking. A transvestite without a camera, that's unheard of. Sadly it exited in the form of me. I guess I never got around to buying one. To busy to use my money to buy games and movies and make up and clothes -- not necessarily in that order though. ^-^<br /><br />J was very happy that I got the camera. She actually turned into a veritable Kid Kodak that same week-end. But she's mostly happy that we'll get to document... well me. And with the new computer that has a burner on it now, we'll be able to store those photos on discs. Before that the only camera I had was a little Xbox 360 web cam. Of course it doesn't cut it anymore. And the pictures I did have of myself were lost when my older PC crashed. That really suxxored.<br /><br />Anyway, this was a long way to get at this.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiffdxnivFX30t1K37NGkhzr8toOl2sfukKi7bwvUwlVe6lghFt-mUCiTJ3Hykz9eQ3zZ3cs0niV-llynbWO_nE_S1KLb3xMBWhfnCHmFhH1tXzI1dZIVh9kgkDBeHP5y35kClHOOPRR4E/s1600/100_0253.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 545px; height: 363px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiffdxnivFX30t1K37NGkhzr8toOl2sfukKi7bwvUwlVe6lghFt-mUCiTJ3Hykz9eQ3zZ3cs0niV-llynbWO_nE_S1KLb3xMBWhfnCHmFhH1tXzI1dZIVh9kgkDBeHP5y35kClHOOPRR4E/s400/100_0253.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606956523595847106" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIiip3KFtmgpenHv4QoO6zbYGaEtEruWQOZi9GTLvejwkSkT-YngrTGpGOkSdHbRE4XmVnAP3xfRH6T7n60axez3CWP_jKD5x0OAa2FLQsTaOnegnIbYrxr9N8hGJIdvjuV7J1lw4-hjA/s1600/100_0254.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 542px; height: 363px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIiip3KFtmgpenHv4QoO6zbYGaEtEruWQOZi9GTLvejwkSkT-YngrTGpGOkSdHbRE4XmVnAP3xfRH6T7n60axez3CWP_jKD5x0OAa2FLQsTaOnegnIbYrxr9N8hGJIdvjuV7J1lw4-hjA/s400/100_0254.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606958096348067522" border="0" /></a><br />These are pictures of me we took just yesterday and I'm actually quite pleased with the results despite the fact that I'm sans make up.

( Japanese, english, etc. ) <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragonball_z">Dragonball Z</a> probably is one of the most influential Anime that was ever created. You've all at least heard of it for sure if you've never seen it. I'll admit right away it's not for everyone, but like Tezuka sama's Tetsuwan Atomu/Astroboy, Dragonball had fans around the world.<br /><br />Japanese Opening 1<br /><object height="390" width="480"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/sfKi8PCSL5k?fs=1&hl=en_US"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/sfKi8PCSL5k?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="390" width="480"></embed></object><br /><br />Japanese Opening 2<br /><object height="390" width="480"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/l6AVmeKHKk4?fs=1&hl=en_US"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/l6AVmeKHKk4?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="390" width="480"></embed></object><br /><br />Japanese Opening 3 ( For the 20th anniversary of the show. )<br /><object height="390" width="640"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/doiRaupnWAI?fs=1&hl=en_US"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/doiRaupnWAI?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="390" width="640"></embed></object><br /><br />English Opening ( Sorry couldn't find a better quality with that song. )<br /><object height="390" width="480"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/3-Hjf43k3Cs?fs=1&hl=en_US"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/3-Hjf43k3Cs?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="390" width="480"></embed></object><br /><br />German Opening 2<br /><object height="390" width="640"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/dke_fw6nukY?fs=1&hl=en_US"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/dke_fw6nukY?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="390" width="640"></embed></object><br /><br />French Opening<br /><object height="390" width="480"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/dZ1NcxAZUYk?fs=1&hl=en_US"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/dZ1NcxAZUYk?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="390" width="480"></embed></object><br /><br />Spanish Opening<br /><object height="390" width="480"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/n5JM6TBBpUc?fs=1&hl=en_US"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/n5JM6TBBpUc?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="390" width="480"></embed></object><br /><br />Ok I think this should cover it. ^-^ ( That and you might not even be albe to read this right now since there might be to many videos on my page.

I have to say, this game is pure genius -- although I have to admit that it's pretty short. That being said, I still didn't try the multiplayer game which is apparently very good from what I heard.<br /><br />If you've played the first <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal_%28video_game%29">Portal</a> you pretty much know what to expect, but if you don't, let me explain it in a fairly simple way. This game is basically a 'first person puzzler' -- a first person shooter in which your goal is not to shoot stuff -- or people -- but to solve puzzles. Your gun shoots portals, a blue and an orange one. These portals allow you to enter one and exit the other -- if you enter the blue you'll exit the orange and vice versa. This is basically the core mechanics of the game.<br /><br />Now it may sound ridiculous, and rightly so if you shoot one portal next to the other, but when you have to cross a gap that you can't go around or jump over, then the portal gun becomes extremely handy. All you need to do is shoot one portal on your side of the gap and the other on the opposite side and <span style="font-style: italic;">voilà</span>, you've got a way across. This sounds extremely simple at first -- or maybe super complicated -- but the farther you go in the game, the harder the puzzles become as you need the portals to pass objects, lasers, light bridges and other stuff through them.<br /><br />The second game starts off... I don't know how many years after the first one, but you still play as Chell only this time you wake up in what seems to be a cheap motel room. You then meet Wheatley, an unsure A.I. core that moves around a ceiling track. He brings you back to the testing facilities of Aperture Science to help you escape -- although how Chell was brought back to those facilities is beyond me. It turns out that the cheap motel room is actually an Aperture prison/suspended animation room.<br /><br />Once you get at the facilities, you realize that years have gone by since the last time you were there. The testing chamber have decayed and also vegetation has been growing in them for quite some time. Wheatley helps you along your path to freedom but tells you that the only way to escape is through 'her' room. And because of a fsck up on his part, GLaDOS is once again awake. She then takes you and puts you back into the testing chambers just like good old times. I don't want to say anymore because I don't want to spoil it for you guys.<br /><br />Once again, I must commend Valve on the writing because the sequel makes sense. It doesn't make perfect sense, but it's believable enough for me to get sucked in. The chatter that GLaDOS and Wheatley -- and also other voices -- offers is anything but boring. It also serves to give you insight as to what was going on and what happened to Aperture Science.<br /><br />The graphics are amazing. Valve really put everything they could into this game. At the same time though, the super awesome graphics leads me to a miner grippe that I have about the game. Loading times/screens, something that wasn't in the first game -- or very little depending on what format you were playing. Portal seamlessly ran from the beginning to the end without any pause for loading. Portal 2 not only has loading screens between each test chambers, but sometimes during the heat of the moment, the loading screen pops up and breaks the momentum. Like I said thought, it's a miner grippe.<br /><br />I'm dying to try the multiplayer now. Problem is though, I don't want to play with a totally random fscktard on Xbox Live. It would be better to play with someone I know. But I guess I'll make a little sacrifice just to be able to try it. I may fall on someone completely awesome though. In the multiplayer game, you play as either Atlas or P-body. Two robots that GLaDOS created after Chell escapes in the main game. So in essence, it's kinda like a sequel to the single player story. You run around with your friend trying to figure out the puzzles that were created for these two robots. Apparently, some puzzles require simultaneous actions. I will keep you posted if I ever try it.<br /><br />All in all, I think Portal 2 will probably be the first game that I reviewed on any blog that will receive the highest note. I give this game the perfect score of 5 thumbs up despite it's miner flaws. I suggest you pick up this game. You'll thank me later.<br /><br />Until then this is me signing off.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdPcwHCz6GFj2fOZKMfJalvpEnuhyGywX8dUSKohrlgTowxQwS9AItjL9UgNOlv_3-3nMYzuVKwsG2WDsRBvioMVFyxhn3qBaIoDwERoExvOBMTn2zvBm_FKrKlxDgMHLy5dxaP1CrGu0/s1600/Matamitene.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdPcwHCz6GFj2fOZKMfJalvpEnuhyGywX8dUSKohrlgTowxQwS9AItjL9UgNOlv_3-3nMYzuVKwsG2WDsRBvioMVFyxhn3qBaIoDwERoExvOBMTn2zvBm_FKrKlxDgMHLy5dxaP1CrGu0/s200/Matamitene.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5603369488217000402" border="0" /></a>NaomiPaulPoruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07462875907072013197noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461284906312190932.post-58298992885496234812011-04-29T12:31:00.000-04:002011-04-29T12:31:34.148-04:00PSN Down - Possible Hacker Attack - Somewhat BrainfartHey all,<br /><br />In what will probably be considered a 'dark day for <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlayStation_3">PlayStation 3</a> owners', <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2011/04/26/update-on-playstation-network-and-qriocity/">Sony went on record</a> stating that the reason <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlayStation_Network">PlayStation Network</a> was down is because of a hacker or hackers. ( Probably not their exact phrasing, but you get the drift. )<br /><br />Around the period of the 17 and 19 of April, Sony noticed a security breach and decided to shutdown PSN hence depriving hundreds of thousands of people, if not millions, to access online content and online games. But what sucks is that, even while knowing this, they only decided to announce it to the users, in the 26th, that it was a security breach. The type of information that the hackers could have access to are the following: name, address, country, email, birthday and PSN/<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qriocity">Qriocity</a> password and login and PSN online ID.<br /><br />They could also have your profile data, including your purchase history and billing address, and your PSN/Qriocity security answers. So as it stands, they have the basic package for Identity theft for an undetermined number of people. Gravy!!! But hark, what is this? Apparently hackers may also have users credit card data if they just so happened to use them online. I say 'may have', because Sony has stated that it is uncertain if hackers indeed have this info, however they do not rule out the possibility. Through their blog<span style="text-decoration: underline;"></span> and also an email they will send the users, they have advised people to check their credit card statements and given them information on how to do so.<br /><br />All in all, my beef is not so much with the fact that PSN got hacked. I mean give enough time to hackers and they will prove to you that the impossible is in fact quite possible. I in no way condone what they do. But the fact of the matter is, if you want the best security, you hire a hacker and not only that, you constantly have to upgrade your stuff so as not to get hacked. My beef is with Sony not warning anyone that their was an intrusion on the 19.<br /><br />I say this in all reserve because I don't own a PS3 and I'm not on PSN. But if this were to happen to the Xbox 360 online community, I would hope that Microsoft would warn all of their users through email that their was a security breach despite our information being compromised or not. Call it a heads up if you will.

Then when they saw that there was a possible information leak, they informed the people. That's real great. So I guess if people get charged by every possible porn website in the last couple of days, then they'll know that hackers got their credit card numbers.<br /><br />Until then, this is me signing off.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8D1soAVxNU0oIMeyQnVGzhbQ5XR0koai6gXwJeCY3ooziF92B6GCfXZ_PEg5_U9k8BUEPhD2bg717YIPO0g6ZavKxoi8hx4dZl-UH3ntSHcqK_N5IFLEtucnjKjBg_kwnbTh6qJPWIGs/s1600/Matamitene.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8D1soAVxNU0oIMeyQnVGzhbQ5XR0koai6gXwJeCY3ooziF92B6GCfXZ_PEg5_U9k8BUEPhD2bg717YIPO0g6ZavKxoi8hx4dZl-UH3ntSHcqK_N5IFLEtucnjKjBg_kwnbTh6qJPWIGs/s200/Matamitene.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5600292942614082162" border="0" /></a>NaomiPaulPoruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07462875907072013197noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461284906312190932.post-25407614238538450442011-04-27T09:40:00.002-04:002011-04-27T10:00:09.312-04:00Saturday Morning CartoonsHey all,<br /><br />No I didn't miss it last saturday.

There's something else I want to talk about.<br /><br />Since I've started dressing up and going into public in 2006, I've never encountered any problems. The worst I had encountered was the heckling of a couple of people a year or so ago in the metro. They didn't do anything because I didn't pay much attention to them. ( Actually that's not accurate. I didn't <span style="font-weight: bold;">want</span> to pay them attention. ) Apparently being a transvestite with a bright pink leather coat will do that. What helped is that I had a book and focused my attention on that so that the heckling would sound like the teachers in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peanuts">Peanuts</a> cartoons. But all in all, I think I managed that incident pretty well.<br /><br />Fast forward to 2011, last Thursday where I get ready to go meet J and a friend for supper downtown. I finish my routine of showering, do hair and make up and I get out the door. I go to the bus stop near our house. Well actually, we live between two bus stops of the same line, so one is not necessarily closer to the other. One just feels closer. Now to get there, I walk past this place that J and I suspect is a drug house. This young teenager of arabian nationality was sitting on the stoop. He asked me a question regarding if I was either a man or a woman. I answered him, and I don't know why I do this with people when they ask me this question, to guess. Now that kinda got him excited, and not in a good way, and he called out two of his friends that were in the house. At first I was like: 'Ok whatever, show and tell time.' And I was concentrating on looking for the time of the next bus passage. Then I felt them gathering around me and I went: 'Oh oh!' And basically I was right because one of them, probably the most insecure in his masculinity, said something that sounded like 'rushing magnet'. ( Ok ok. He said fscking faggot. But actually in french. So it was more like 'Stie d'tapette'. ) At that point I decided it was not safe to stand there and walked back to the other bus stop. They yelled something again which I can't remember to which I answered with the honor finger.<br /><br />I thought I was safe. But I turned around to look and they were following me. I'll tell you this now, I was fracking scared.<br /><br />Now here's a dilemma that I'm facing. I don't know the law to well and most of what I could write here I've already wrote in a complaint to the cops. In fact the beginning of the story I've already wrote in the complaint as well. So I don't know if I continue writing about it, it will hinder my case in any way. I'll make you a deal. Let's wait a couple of months and I'll tell you about it. ( Chances are that it will never pan out and that the investigation will lead to a dead end. ) Suffice it to say that it wasn't pretty even though it wasn't too serious but it's still the basis of the complaint and it's apparently treated as a minor hate crime. It ended when I decided to stand my ground and told them that I didn't want them to follow me anymore. But I tell you this, even if I did puff my chest at that moment, I was fracking scared.<br /><br />Thoughts of going into neighboring businesses had crossed my mind, but I didn't want to be a bother to them. ( That is a way of thinking I have to get rid of A.S.A.P. ) But in any case, I thank my lucky stars, cause I must have more then one, that it didn't get to serious. But even so, they've left a little fear in me that I don't want. Cause this happened at around 7h30 in the evening. Mind you, these kids were probably the most insecure bunch of fscktards the world as ever bored. Seriously, they were three against one solitary transvestite. If their goal was to install fear in me, then i would say they've succeeded. If their goal was to install so much fear in me that I won't go out anymore. Then they can kiss my tranny ass.<br /><br />When this happened, one of them asked me: 'Aren't you ashamed of what you are doing?' and I answered him: 'No I'm not ashamed!'. God was also mentioned in this. The traditional: 'God made you a man so why do you want to become this?'. I didn't go into any spiel because I knew it would fall on deaf ears. They were just a bunch of monkeys trying to put words together to sound intelligent.<br /><br />If for some odd reason they would read this blog, and I know that's not gonna happen because they seem to speak only french, I would say to them: 'Lighten the fsck up!'. The only reason why you guys did this is because you're insecure in your own masculinity. Some of you probably already fantasized of sucking a cock, or getting it from behind. But what you don't understand is that doesn't make you any less of a man. Accepting who you are the way you are makes you a man. So by definition, I'm more of a man then you guys will ever be. And I've probably had more sex with girls then you guys will ever have in your lifetime if you continue being fscktards. ( Having sex with the same partner multiple times counts as different times in my book. ^-^ )<br /><br />My hope is that one day, everyone will be accepted, no I'll go with tolerated. Asking to be accepted might be too much for some people. So my hope is that one day, everyone will be tolerated the way they are. Perhaps when that day comes, we'll be able to work on accepting each other.<br /><br />Until then, this is me signing off.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifi_KE2uO9FG5kl0ZO7XwWzDJl_nUBptogcg6VYcLqdvCuJDZmERIjcg0BfmuoaXEUZUOn6HE2OkiEfwuSz3gDrL4MDy4MKXYZl_7sO_Vds0yPBVOIfq_Ka9ADBwOOogiewDtN_BiC3KM/s1600/Matamitene.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifi_KE2uO9FG5kl0ZO7XwWzDJl_nUBptogcg6VYcLqdvCuJDZmERIjcg0BfmuoaXEUZUOn6HE2OkiEfwuSz3gDrL4MDy4MKXYZl_7sO_Vds0yPBVOIfq_Ka9ADBwOOogiewDtN_BiC3KM/s200/Matamitene.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5596273977070829858" border="0" /></a>NaomiPaulPoruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07462875907072013197noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461284906312190932.post-56623580391315331702011-04-16T10:31:00.003-04:002011-04-16T11:40:07.284-04:00Saturday Morning CartoonsHey all,<br /><br />Yeah I know. I've been slacking off on my duties of posting SMC. But I'm back with a vengeance now. And Since I missed a couple of weeks, you'll get not one, not two, but four different cartoon intros this week. What can I say I'm generous that way. :P So without further ado here are your cartoons:<br /><br /><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spider-Man_%281967_TV_series%29">Spider-man 1967</a><br /><object height="390" width="480"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/4o29VoxtsFk?fs=1&hl=en_US"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/4o29VoxtsFk?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="390" width="480"></embed></object><br /><br /><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocket_Robin_Hood">Rocket Robin Hood</a><br /><object height="390" width="480"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/tkYaauQkSFc?fs=1&hl=en_US"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/tkYaauQkSFc?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="390" width="480"></embed></object><br /><br /><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mighty_Hercules">The Mighty Hercules</a><br /><object height="390" width="480"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/4PrLVgR6J84?fs=1&hl=en_US"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/4PrLVgR6J84?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="390" width="480"></embed></object><br /><br /><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mach_Go_Go_Go">Mach Go Go Go!

But the only two videos available have disallowed embeding so you're stuck with the better Japanese version. :P I don't know why I decided to go totally retro right now. It felt appropriate I guess. Still, those four shows have been a part of my childhood and I'm sure at least one has been a part of yours. God I remember watching Rocket Robin and Hercules with my dad.<br /><br />Speed Racer came later in my life like when I was a teenager. But at that point I was so much into Anime that I did care if it was old school. It used to air on <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YTV_%28TV_channel%29">YTV</a> back in the 90's.<br /><br />Good times. ^-^<br /><br />Until then, this is me signing off.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-qzQWk3kSiAdQWpToEqjcDF7aifGFai-wCFFmwFP0L32WuYOUupM0StpP1D733wE-H9rfys1w59ClqU3cwa1G3mA8Ms0QMa1aCP9CVKsGgio1v0lZqAfgpJCbmeSZjys-tGMgNm2g26o/s1600/Matamitene.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-qzQWk3kSiAdQWpToEqjcDF7aifGFai-wCFFmwFP0L32WuYOUupM0StpP1D733wE-H9rfys1w59ClqU3cwa1G3mA8Ms0QMa1aCP9CVKsGgio1v0lZqAfgpJCbmeSZjys-tGMgNm2g26o/s200/Matamitene.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5596191157779566130" border="0" /></a>NaomiPaulPoruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07462875907072013197noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461284906312190932.post-56343633671091047222011-03-19T09:39:00.006-04:002011-03-19T22:30:16.318-04:00Saturday Morning CartoonsHey all,<br /><br />Yet again we will delve into our collective childhood to rummage through old memories of the past. Today I bring an entry that has two intros. But are at the same time very different. ( You'll understand better when you'll watch them. ) So without further ado, I present to you:<br /><br /><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Real_Ghostbusters">The Real Ghostbusters</a><br /><object width="425" height="349"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/M7VS-ZoeMqs?fs=1&hl=en_US&rel=0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/M7VS-ZoeMqs?fs=1&hl=en_US&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="349"></embed></object><br /><br />And also: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghostbusters_%281986_TV_series%29">Ghostbusters</a><br /><object width="560" height="349"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/WYgO8LWKH4I?fs=1&hl=en_US&rel=0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/WYgO8LWKH4I?fs=1&hl=en_US&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="349"></embed></object><br /><br />I can actually hear you say: "What the frak?!". I know, I was very confused too when I was younger. Especially since I really loved the GhostBusters movie. You can imagine my surprise the first time I saw two GhostBusters show in the TV Guide and was treated to two very different shows. I just thought it would be double the proton pack fun. The second show turned out to have a Gorilla in it.<br /><br />Still, Ghostbusters had it's own thing going for it. And I have to admit it was pretty interesting none the less. In fact, I think my dad preferred this one instead of The Real Ghostbusters show with Peter, Ray, Egon and Winston. It was based on a live-action television show for kids in the 70's called <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ghost_Busters">The Ghost Busters</a>.<br /><br />Apparently there was a big brou-ha-ha made about the licensing of the name when it came time to make the cartoons. So the cartoon based on the movie was named the Real Ghostbusters just to differentiate the two series.<br /><br />So now you know... and knowing is half the battle. ^w^<br /><br />Until then, this is me signing out<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhks8Fc5LtINjGI6M0YmZ0C0iUi27V5yN-FpmYTdfE4h7SFDs_klXwozLZM_gE8FxY4uArLjmHRgTHF6XOwGMHqRB8vQ8eiREgI5Juzi7SEXINoFxmCxOKxgAmp2lOXMVgdIGqzmsWO26c/s1600/Matamitene.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhks8Fc5LtINjGI6M0YmZ0C0iUi27V5yN-FpmYTdfE4h7SFDs_klXwozLZM_gE8FxY4uArLjmHRgTHF6XOwGMHqRB8vQ8eiREgI5Juzi7SEXINoFxmCxOKxgAmp2lOXMVgdIGqzmsWO26c/s200/Matamitene.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5585787590103509826" border="0" /></a>NaomiPaulPoruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07462875907072013197noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461284906312190932.post-51717517200845698562011-03-12T07:48:00.004-05:002011-03-12T08:04:21.274-05:00Saturday Morning CartoonsHey all,<br /><br />Time again for another entry of SMC.

And here's another intro for you guys to watch. This week I chose something that, at the time, didn't know was anime. I'm sure a lot of you had cartoons like that.

Every saturdays, ( Or most every saturdays. ) I will put up a video of a cartoon intro. Why? you ask. Because it's my blog and I can. ^w^<br /><br />But mostly for the hell of it. And also part nostalgia. I was thinking about just putting cartoons from the 80's but I figure that after a while it will probably be limiting. So I'm going for everything here. Even Anime intros I really I really like. ( And most possibly in their original versions too. ) And since I'm french canadian, you will probably hear see some french intros. ( Just giving you guys a heads here. ) So without further ado, I present to you the first intro to ever grace this blog. Watch out now. I'm starting strong.<br /><br /><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chuck_Norris:_Karate_Kommandos">Chuck Norris Karate Kommandos</a><br /><object width="425" height="349"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/wSU1Lvxy9Sk?fs=1&hl=en_US&rel=0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/wSU1Lvxy9Sk?fs=1&hl=en_US&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="349"></embed></object><br /><br />So, who stars in who's Karate Kommandos? And WTF is this about deadly dolphins. Seriously I thought dolphins were supposed to be friendly. Oh well.<br /><br />Since this is the first edition of Saturday Morning Cartoons, I've decided to put up another video. This one is from my favorite anime series.<br /><br />Lupin the 3rd<br /><object width="425" height="349"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/rm99tmzmXkk?fs=1&hl=en_US&rel=0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/rm99tmzmXkk?fs=1&hl=en_US&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="349"></embed></object><br /><br /><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lupin_the_3rd">Lupin the 3rd</a> is just about the mischiefs of this gentlemen thief and his friends. It's very a good show considering it's age too. Think of it as Sherlock Holmes meets James Bond. I fell in love with this character after watching Hayao Miyazaki's <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castle_of_Cagliostro">Castle of Cagliostro</a>.<br /><br />For obvious reasons, I never watched Chuck Norris Karate Kommandos. I mean, anything that has killer dolphins probably sucks ass. Plus it only had 5 episodes. But obviously, Chuck Norris only needs 5 episodes. ^-^<br /><br />Ok well that's it for today.I hope you liked the first installment of SMC. Come back next week for another one.<br /><br />Until then, this is me signing off.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyNkRGpjGd8zX8pBhl9nTFtlBEwvFqyj5hH1g6QEZHPN_kjMHp8HryUWOuKayvZjLGRU-VGOnmKU3SU61sFo2H40uTk3A0bykyQjH33wglGUogzWg34v50GVT9wCRBa2lRQ9XedvKr3H4/s1600/Matamitene.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyNkRGpjGd8zX8pBhl9nTFtlBEwvFqyj5hH1g6QEZHPN_kjMHp8HryUWOuKayvZjLGRU-VGOnmKU3SU61sFo2H40uTk3A0bykyQjH33wglGUogzWg34v50GVT9wCRBa2lRQ9XedvKr3H4/s200/Matamitene.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5578017492867933170" border="0" /></a>NaomiPaulPoruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07462875907072013197noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461284906312190932.post-41671029769806872832011-02-20T11:35:00.007-05:002011-02-20T15:23:14.479-05:00Marvel vs. Capcom 3 get...Hey all,<br /><br />I got my grubby little mitts on this.<br /><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marvel_vs_Capcom_3"><br /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marvel_vs_Capcom_3"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 326px; height: 368px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUnBa8D7X7Xg5HQKdp5W4xIHdN7UnsBF__WFg7S_yHl42dFiZbG2FPhb5rEup-rT202kTROURpyiWuVMAKWwa5eSXLxwsb3qgNLwpWXzqEceHq0XbqHyRv6BLv-Eni5jeOY0pDIVDfBpM/s200/marvel-vs-capcom3-1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5575817376202148706" border="0" /></a><br />Yeah, it's awesome. It's as good as the second one. Maybe a little less characters then the last one but that's not necessarily a bad thing per say. ( Sometimes, too much is like not enough. ) One thing that is very different from the second one is the controls. Instead of a four buttons attack scheme, ( Two hard and two medium attacks. ) they opted for a three buttons scheme plus one special which you use to initiate the air combos and do certain special moves. The three buttons are low, medium and hard attacks. But there's no difference between punches and kicks. This was apparently done to facilitate the task for newcomers to the game. ( Although I'm pretty sure that a newcomer who's reading this might think I'm speaking chinese. ^-^ )<br /><br />The graphics are kick ass. The character models are so sleek it's unbelievable. Some of the Marvel characters look like their movie counterpart. ( I.E. Ironman and Thor. Or maybe they look like their comics version. I don't really know anymore since I don't read comics much lately. ) And like <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Street_Fighter_IV">Street Fighter IV</a>, the animation is very fluid. The characters that have appeared in the earlier version pretty much play the same way that they did before. ( I.E. Same animation. ) Although some of their special moves have changed to fit the new button scheme. But the roster isn't only consisted of older characters. There's a plethora of new fighters to choose from as well. From <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghosts_%26_Goblins">Ghosts & Goblins</a> Arthur, to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MODOK#M.O.D.O.T.">MODOK</a> from the Marvel Universe.<br /><br />All in all, this is a very good fighting game. I give it a 4.5 thumbs up out of 5. Here's a video to show you the awesomeness/madness that is Marvel vs. Capcom.<br /><br /><object width="560" height="349"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/XBmxNHuZoQY?fs=1&hl=en_US&rel=0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/XBmxNHuZoQY?fs=1&hl=en_US&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="349"></embed></object><br /><br /><br />Until then, this is me signing out.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjB46A7s_oYaQlji6T_TyZvB0TVK6TcnBweBkZ781ROhqoriAvh0tdC2GZ9xBho_kLGao4TJCPebYyx1hImF7S89v2XPD03ge1wMOybpVyJU9djqNQ7HKbJvefQ8GJVVkj-KzKJjb4wxaY/s1600/Matamitene.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjB46A7s_oYaQlji6T_TyZvB0TVK6TcnBweBkZ781ROhqoriAvh0tdC2GZ9xBho_kLGao4TJCPebYyx1hImF7S89v2XPD03ge1wMOybpVyJU9djqNQ7HKbJvefQ8GJVVkj-KzKJjb4wxaY/s200/Matamitene.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5575817640234326658" border="0" /><br /></a>NaomiPaulPoruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07462875907072013197noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461284906312190932.post-88153870358243977642011-01-30T11:32:00.004-05:002011-01-30T15:42:09.645-05:00Dragons and Assassins and Xboxes. Oh my!!!Hey all,<br /><br />So yeah, back in septembre I got the Red Ring of Death on my 360. Or rather the E74 message of dread. Simply put, my Xbox died on me. J proposed to me that I send it in an get it repaired, but i argued that it would be better if we bought a new one since my old roommate did that with is 360 and had to send it in again a couple of months after it came back.<br /><br />So I bought the new and sleeker <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xbox_slim#Xbox_360_.22Slim.22">360 slim model</a>. I just love it. ^-^ And I bought a bundle that Best Buy did back in November. It was basically the Xbox holiday bundle packed with <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forza_3">Forza 3</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_wake">Alan Wake</a> but Best Buy added <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassin%27s_Creed_II">Assassins Creed 2</a> with it. When I saw they had that I went straight to the store with the circular in hand and said to the clerk: "I want this!" while pointing to the special in question. I also bought <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon_Age_Origins">Dragon Age: Origins</a> with it so that J could try it out.<br /><br />Let me tell you. It feels good to be gaming again after a month and a half hiatus. As expected, J loved DA. ( She just finished it last friday. ) And I loved AC2. ( Which I finished a couple of weeks before the holidays. I've started a game of DA myself. ) I also got around to play <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limbo_%28video_game%29">Limbo</a> on Xbox Live Arcade which is probably the best game to come out on XLA this year. We also bought the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinect">Kinect</a> with a couple of games which is pretty awesome. We got <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinect_Adventures">Kinect Adventures</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dance_Central">Dance Central</a>. DC is good, KA not so much though. And just this week-end I bought <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borderlands_%28video_game%29">Borderlands</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Elder_Scrolls_IV:_Oblivion">The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion</a>. I got the game of the year edition for both of them.<br /><br />So basically, I guess my only goal with this post is to reaffirm my love for video games and also to say that, for the exception of Kinect Adventures that isn't that good and Forza 3 that I haven't tried yet, you should try every game I mentioned and thank me later. That is all. ^-^<br /><br />Assassins Creed 2: 4.3 Thumbs up<br /><br />Dragon Age: 4.3 Thumbs up<br /><br />Borderlands: 4 Thumbs up<br /><br />Oblivion: 4 Thumbs up<br /><br />Limbo: 4.5 Thumbs up<br /><br />Dance Central: 4 Thumbs up<br /><br />Alan Wake: 3.8 Thumbs up<br /><br />Until then, this is me signing off.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCt7TLyfzkugU6ySvmJfj4TEfSVFzVDMnem4oZu_eS8bf3ZOSZcSPm0_UwDaat9M2tX2nuZdqciqid5nRvJ8hMPsz-HIxsRUFJd0zujnh8_zgfTCl39fbqAc-x93Y4qZZ4XUbj2mVTXqg/s1600/Matamitene.JPG"><img style="float: left; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCt7TLyfzkugU6ySvmJfj4TEfSVFzVDMnem4oZu_eS8bf3ZOSZcSPm0_UwDaat9M2tX2nuZdqciqid5nRvJ8hMPsz-HIxsRUFJd0zujnh8_zgfTCl39fbqAc-x93Y4qZZ4XUbj2mVTXqg/s200/Matamitene.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5568075704062256786" border="0" /></a>NaomiPaulPoruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07462875907072013197noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461284906312190932.post-21319600902182452172010-09-12T13:00:00.003-04:002010-09-12T17:00:39.860-04:00Updates and Gender StuffHey everybody,<br /><br />Ha! Well even though it's been a little over a month ( Maybe more like two month. ), at least it hasn't been a year. ^-^<br /><br />So what's new? A couple of things. My girlfriend and I just bought a computer together and we've been busy playing a couple of games on it. She's playing the Sims 3 and I,ve been playing StarCraft 2. ( I suck online so don,t ask me to add you or anything. Unless I already know you. )<br /><br />I tell you, this thing is pretty sweet. It's not a super bomb, but it's pretty good. I'm pretty hopeful that we'll be able to play Diablo 3 as well. ( Hmph! Maybe it is a super bomb. I really don't know anymore. ) I just need to put my windows in english so that J can understand what's going on with Norton. ( J being my GF. ) Right now it's in french. It's got a Blu-ray player on it, but honestly, unless I hook up my PC on my TV, I don't think it'll serve much purpose.<br /><br />Other than that, well we've just celebrated our first six months together. (Soon to be seven months. ) And also we're getting the hang of living together. ( And also getting the hang of time sharing the PC. ^-^Jokes. ) We've been living together since last May. But in all, everything between J and me are good. I thank my lucky stars that I have her in my life. Seriously, I don't think a lot of women would be able to handle a geek and a tranny all wrapped into one. But she's one of them, and she's great. I think she would even out-geek certain people I know. You should see some of the games she plays. ^w^ ( I think when I'm done with StarCraft, I might buy Dragon Age and see if it tickles her fancy. ) In any case, we seem to think that we were made for each other and that we're extremely lucky to have crossed our paths.<br /><br />On the gender front, something happened a month and a half ago that made me question things. And again, the perpetual question of how should I be living my life resurfaced. But of course now, I have someone to consider regarding this decision. J loves both Naomi and Paul, so if either one had to go permanently she would be sad. ( Ugh! I'm still separating both genders as if they were 2 persons but they're not. I am Naomi and Paul. But it seems easier to talk about myself like this sometimes. Even for J. ) In any case, it's a big decision that can't be taken lightly. But one thing is for sure. I want to get rid of my bodily hair with laser hair removal. I'm sure I won't miss that. ^-^<br /><br />Anyway, the thing that happened that brought upon this questioning is one of my friends wedding to which J and I attended and at which I was dressed up. As you know, pretty much all, if not everyone of my friends knows about my dressing up. So when I heard that this specific ceremony would be just friends, I figured that it would be okay if I showed up in the best dress I have. Everything was fine and dandy until we got to the door and saw my friend's soon to be husband. I don't now what it was, but the unreadable expression on his face made me doubt myself and I eeked out the question: "Is this ok?". J swore that she saw me drop down to two feet tall. ( And that's quite a feat considering I'm 5'11" tall nearly 6'. ^-^ ) He said that it was ok with him but he would have to check with his soon to be bride. J, in a pure act of chivalry asked: "And who are you?" To which he replied: "I'm the groom." Yes presentations were not even done at that point, and I asked if I could exist.<br /><br />Cause it boils down to that really. Each time I'm asking "Is this okay?" or "Is the presence of Naomi okay?" it's as if I'm asking "Can I exist this way?" or " Can I be myself". And honestly, I'm tired of asking this question and it's gotten to a point where I don't ask anymore. I guess I just assumed that all my friends would be ok with it now. But like I heard in a movie once. Assumption is the mother of all fsckups. It turned out to be okay. The bride had no qualms with it and we got to have a good time anyway. But it could of become a very humiliating event for J and me. What would've happened if we had to turn tail. I guess I haven't thought up to that point really. But in any case, it begged the question of what should I do with this from now on.<br /><br />J proposed an idea to me which I'm kinda of inclining to do. It would actually kill two birds with one stone really since I was planning on changing my e-mail eventually to better suite who I am. She put up the idea of sending a mass mail saying to everyone in my contact list that from now on, they would have to specify if they want my girl side to come or not. In other words, if they just send me invite and they don't specify if they want boy mode only, then I am free to choose whatever the frak I feel like showing up in. It's an interesting idea. However it makes me feel uneasy to the fact that they'll have some kind of power over me. But if I truly mean what I say when I say that I respect my friends fully, then I have to trust them with this decision until I decide to transition fully if transition there will be. Cause if I transition, there's only one way I'm going to present myself.<br /><br />Interesting post-script to this story though. A month after the wedding, I ran into my friend that performed the ceremony. ( To which I tip my hat off because he was very good. ) I told him about the uneasiness that happened that day and that it turned out to be okay. He proceeded to ask if I felt like people were looking at me or if I felt the pressure of peering eyes at the wedding. I answered not really because I'm starting to get used to it in the grand public anyway. He mentioned to me that people who didn't know me at the wedding were asking questions as to whether I was a real woman or not. Which I take as a compliment in all honesty. Look, I know I'll never look a 100% like a real woman. Or rather I should say that I know people are gonna clue in that I'm a transvestite. However, if I'm able to make people do a double take and make them wonder: "Who's the sweedish girl?" as J would put it ^-^, then I feel like I won half the battle. So if by any chance you're reading this L, thanks for telling me this. That really made my day. ^-^ I guess it pays for me to go the extra mile to look good.<br /><br />Wow. This was a long entry. I hope I didn't bore you gals and guys. ^-^ Like I said, I'm seriously considering doing that mass mail thing. I'm curious what it would do and also I'm not 100% sure this is the right course of action. If any of you reading have any suggestions, I'm all ears/eyes. But honestly, if I keep living this duality, I think I'll need to do it the way I said. But it feels tactless. Oh well. Guess I'll think about it some more.<br /><br />Until then, this is me signing off.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigmPDJzMG-L2ehzWltSbMm7nriKRSQZg8gNuBxyayH2rnxeWI122Z84y2ckD5FY1erYNTs1oXKj4gT4MfNmCtsdjjqvQEX01LcYI97RS7khKJoFSxroj9yBPFUqRWFWgFxvH7eTomqYdM/s1600/Matamitene.JPG"><img style="float: left; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigmPDJzMG-L2ehzWltSbMm7nriKRSQZg8gNuBxyayH2rnxeWI122Z84y2ckD5FY1erYNTs1oXKj4gT4MfNmCtsdjjqvQEX01LcYI97RS7khKJoFSxroj9yBPFUqRWFWgFxvH7eTomqYdM/s200/Matamitene.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5516078843772080402" border="0" /></a>NaomiPaulPoruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07462875907072013197noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461284906312190932.post-20273211944695379592010-07-16T16:40:00.004-04:002010-07-16T18:12:25.805-04:00Beauty is the Geek - 3DHey everybody,<br /><br />Boy! It's true what they said about fashion. Clothes seem to come back in style after 20 years or so. And I think the same can be said about technology as well. Although it's probably not 20 years for tech. It's more like: "When e have the technology to make it better."<br /><br />Or so is the case for 3D movies. But seriously though. Did we really need this? Raise your hand if you think it's a ploy by movie makers and theater owners to make people come back in the theaters. Raise your other hand if you recently went to see a 3D movie( *Cough* Avatar *Cough*. ) and thought that it was just a glorified <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/View-Master">View-Master</a> with moving pictures. I do have one good thing to say about the 3D now. At least I don't have to watch the movies in a Red and Blue hue.<br /><br />But again I pose the question. Was this really necessary? I think. for the most part, the reaosn that people aren't going to theaters anymore is because of the price. Seriously. Have you seen how much it costs to go to the movies now? Shit! If you have a family, you have to get a second mortgage just for a movie going experience. So I guess 3D is kinda cool cause it gives people an added incentive to watch a movie on the silver screen. Oh but wait. The glasses aren't included in the regular price of admission. They charge an extra 3 to 4$ per head. Can we say rip off?!?! But at least it's still optional. They usually have two versions in most theaters. And I guess for some people, it does add to their movie going experience. So why the hell not?<br /><br />But the problem lies in the fact that it created a fad. So much so that we now have 3D televisions on the way. Ark! They're already here. Seriously? Do we really need 3DTVs? And to be able to watch it you're going to need a special 3D Blue-ray player. ( Because apparently, a regular Blue-ray can't project or create 3D images. ) And let's not forget the glasses which are 100 to 200$ a head. So if you've only got one pair of glasses, guess who's not watching? That's right, your wife or husband or friend or whoever. ( <a href="http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2010/7/12/">Penny Arcade</a> and <a href="http://www.jeffschuetze.com/2010/07/13/jefbot-256_sad-spectacle/">Jefbot</a> clearly made their point on this. ^-^ ) And they are not brand interchangeable. Which means that if I buy a 3DTV from Sony and one of my friends buys one from Samsung, he won't be able to watch my TV with his glasses. I can just imagine how much it's going to cost a guy just so him and his buddies can watch the big game. Which of course means you 'll have to spend extra for a special TV decoder or something to watch sports in 3D. Commercialism at it's best sirs.<br /><br />But people. All of this is a fad. When everybody, or rather most everybody, ( 'Cause I pray that not everybody is stupid enough to give in to this. ) will have a 3DTV with a 3D Blue-ray, that's when 3D movies will stop showing in theaters. And when that happens, it will slowly mean the death of 3D content for your 3D television. Because let's face it. The reason why movie makers and theaters want you to come back in theaters isn't only because of piracy. ( Mind you it's not helping. ) It's because more and more people are getting home theater systems. And with the advent of HD, there really isn't any reason to go see a movie at the theaters anymore. A family person will probably opt for the 30$ it will cost him to buy a DVD movie and a popcorn instead of forking over 50$ to go to the movies. Heck, it's even less then 30$ if you go for a rental.<br /><br />Look, some of you might say that I'm wrong and this isn't just a fad. I can honestly say his to you though. Only time will tell. But if we can learn anything from the iPhone, is that there's always a better model coming out. I suggest that instead of giving in to the craze, wait it out and see if it's viable. Show companies that you won't spend your hard earned cash on just about anything.<br /><br />Even Sony and Micro$oft, despite knowing that 3DTVs were coming, didn't announce anything for their home consoles. And even though Nintendo announced the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo_3DS">3DS</a>, they haven't done anything of the like for the Wii. My geeky brethren, I say wait.<br /><br />Until then, this is me signing off!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1VZzLLreWtiMUm3ccvLtCmGWdZ_7f7aeyAzlOh09HLyzCl9ys8vciahkGJH7Sp0N60zed_3SDk3KoZsCYNTcZS8bExkaeoF00w4cEWqMNX1GNvjopoXvpHHVRSgU5tMjIrQtV2THTPVI/s1600/Matamitene.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1VZzLLreWtiMUm3ccvLtCmGWdZ_7f7aeyAzlOh09HLyzCl9ys8vciahkGJH7Sp0N60zed_3SDk3KoZsCYNTcZS8bExkaeoF00w4cEWqMNX1GNvjopoXvpHHVRSgU5tMjIrQtV2THTPVI/s200/Matamitene.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5494619796914064642" border="0" /></a>NaomiPaulPoruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07462875907072013197noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461284906312190932.post-39398406973815655412010-07-08T17:41:00.002-04:002010-07-08T18:09:29.801-04:00I'm back!!!Hey everybody,<br /><br />I don't know why, but suddenly I'm back. I'm having this crazy urge to write again. Why is this? I have no clue. And why exactly one year after my last entry? ( Or pretty much a year. ) I still don't know.<br /><br />It's just today I felt like buying a Hilroy book and just write in it, which I'm transferring now to this blog.<br /><br />So what's going on with me? Nothing and everything I guess. I'm still a transvestite if you were wondering. I have no plans on getting/starting a transition soon, but I'm seriously considering laser hair removal. ( Hmm, feels like I've said this before. ) I've been going steady with this wonderful girl lately for almost five months now. She's already moved into my... correction. Our place. ( I've been trying to make it as much her place as it is mine. ) Best of all, she accepts me the way that I am. ( And she loves the fact that I'm a transvestite too. ^_~ )<br /><br />Seriously. I don't think I could've gotten a better match though. She loves videogames just like I do. Even played PC games I've never heard of. And she's totally into my girl side. In fact, she would be very sad if I decided to hang up my heels... so to speak. So yeah, you could say that I'm very lucky to have met her. Of course she'd say that she's not a rare bird. But honestly, I think she is. I mean she's a geeky girl who likes transvestites. What else could a g33ky tr4nny ask for. ^-^<br /><br />But this isn't the reason why I'm inspired to write again. ( Although, it could be a reason in itself trust me. ) Like I said earlier. I just don't know why. Of course there is something that I saw the other day that I wanted to give my opinion about. But I'll leave that for my next entry. And I'll where this writing blitz will lead me to as well. I still don't have a grasp of blogger and I'm not able to put pictures up like I'd like to. But I guess I'll just have to concentrate on my writing to make it more interesting. And I'd like the layout to be different then this but... meh. I guess I'll just have to make with.<br /><br />Anyway, I don't want to make promises like last time. But I'll try to write here more then once or twice a year. ¬_¬<br /><br />Until then, this is me signing off.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgu56FRLAeePG3sZQtwyGHGG5veTinyIYgP2Nm6SL0vPmXwI4aQfdexZfTGRT1-fevmXNm0mCv0n0QjG2jplSNfchY41bxhF00SOwiNlwkvwIFZKZS6_b6lkfPTsbh0-9IXKNx6_fIRWSs/s1600/Matamitene.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgu56FRLAeePG3sZQtwyGHGG5veTinyIYgP2Nm6SL0vPmXwI4aQfdexZfTGRT1-fevmXNm0mCv0n0QjG2jplSNfchY41bxhF00SOwiNlwkvwIFZKZS6_b6lkfPTsbh0-9IXKNx6_fIRWSs/s200/Matamitene.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5491660801082980962" border="0" /></a>NaomiPaulPoruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07462875907072013197noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461284906312190932.post-52425051065772203992009-06-14T15:08:00.004-04:002009-06-14T16:17:23.700-04:00F4I1!!!1!!!!1!1!!.... And other stuff.Hey everybody,<br /><br />So yeah, seems I didn't make good on my promise to post once a week. But in my defense, I've had blogger's cramp. ( Or blogger's block. Whatever. ) I've seem to have run out of things to talk about, and yet with my life style, I should be writing your eyes off. ( As opposed to talking your ears off of course. ^w^ ) Maybe it's because I don't know where to start writing. Also, this is a new beginning and I hate that. The fact that I had to quit my first blog really pissed of. ( Again, thanks you M$. ) I sorta had my identity set over there and now I feel I have to start over. It's like I'm creating a sort of pressure on myself.<br /><br />Also, the fact that I have to learn how blogger works bites as well. Don't get me wrong, it's nice place... if you're über good at HTML. Kinda why I liked MSN spaces. It was cookie cuter, but darn it, it didn't take long before you got used to what you wanted to do. But they changed a couple of things there though and I'm sorta back to square one. Oh well, I guess I've ranted long enough.<br /><br />So what's been going on in my life. Well nothing much if not a lot of things. ( Yeah, I know that doesn't make sense. But keep in mind that I don't feel like everything in my life is blog worthy or actually all that exciting. ) Since last time I blogged though, I've had a lot more courage to go out now. ( Dressed up I mean. ) I'm able to take the bus and subway without giving a second thought to people. I guess this started during my vacation when I went on a shopping spree while I was dressed up. Alone.<br /><br />It's something that I had planned for a while now and never got around to do it. You see I've decided that my best chance of survival was to do this during a week day when most people are usually at work and not shopping. But it's quite surprising to see the number of people in mall during the week day. It's not crazy like the evenings or weekends. But there is a lot of people. Kinda makes you wonder how they get their money. In any case, I got to the mall and everything was quite uneventful. The clerks were very courteous with me. The girl at Aditionnelle was very nice, but that's probably due to the fact that her brother is actually a dragqueen. So seeing me wasn't much of a problem for her. Still, points for her. ^-^ I guess people were probably going: 'WTF!' in their minds, but I was too busy jubilating to notice. Also, I wasn't looking at them to see or get a reaction. I just went there existing like anybody would do. ( Don't know if what I just said makes sense, but it does to me. I guess I could extrapolate eventually. ) That being said, I tried to look my best though.<br /><br />And I guess you're wondering about why I'm comfortable in the bus now. Well, it's because to go there, I have to take two buses. So four buses in total. You see, before I wanted to go someplace dressed, I always used to grab a cab. But it got expensive. Especially if you're going for a night out and you spend half of your money on cab fair. ( Of course, I always take a cab back home after a night out. For me, that's just common sense. Especially at 3am in the morn. ) I remember, it would cost me 50$ just to go down town. So for my outing at the mall. I decided I would take the bus. I figured I'd kill two birds with one stone. Get the courage to go out at a public place that's not the village, and also get the courage to grab the bus and subway.<br /><br />Since then, anytime I've wanted to dress and I needed to go some place public, I just did. I've went to breakfast for my friends birthday up in a restaurant that most northern to the island. ( For those of you who know Montreal, that very far form the village. ^w^ ) And for another friend's birthday, I actually walked into a pub. Yeah, I'm still surprised about that one. ^-^ So more and more, I'm actually getting the courage to be myself where ever I want to be. Now if I can only get the courage to go into the bathroom. :P<br /><br />I'll try to do more posts soon. Although that's highly unlikely. I mean Ghostbusters: The Videogame is coming out this tuesday and you can bet your paycheck that I'm going to get my grubby little mitts on it. Plus I'm going to need a new Xbox Live membership card. So I'll be buying those tuesday. Also my rents are coming over the week after. I can't wait to see them, but they're going to be here for like three weeks or something and during that time, I have to put my feminin ways on the side. They accept it, but they're not to see me dressed though. I just hope one day they'll be ok with it. Anyways, I've typed your eyes off too much already. I need to go now.<br /><br />Until then, this is me signing off.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9TRJ130qum7E7Yf0OPq8ocrSqZouWn3JFaWTY0qdRm2Rv3p3RmxpMand43OjX1TXTf-_FkMCmKJSShgDo0s76h3V2m9aTwbbPnIwmI3giTYYTlaw_Abo1OsyytVUde7U3Jhy_RXOaFEQ/s1600-h/Matamitene.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9TRJ130qum7E7Yf0OPq8ocrSqZouWn3JFaWTY0qdRm2Rv3p3RmxpMand43OjX1TXTf-_FkMCmKJSShgDo0s76h3V2m9aTwbbPnIwmI3giTYYTlaw_Abo1OsyytVUde7U3Jhy_RXOaFEQ/s200/Matamitene.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347262428469584930" border="0" /></a>NaomiPaulPoruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07462875907072013197noreply@blogger.com0
