Thanks for the comments,  .

Good to be back, good to have the Tama's going again. I've found that they fit absolutely perfectly in my new shoulder bag, there's a little pocket in the inside of it that keeps them from being scratched and abused by the collection of random objects that seem to accumulate in the bag itself. I swear, it's like a bottomless pit in there. @_@ It's amazing how much you can fit in a womens bag.

"I struggle to fit things into my backpack, whereas my mother with her tiny handbag can fit an entire household of items in it." - my friend Reece commenting on the subject (we were talking about this the other night, haha O_o).

Little Kusatchi left this morning, age 12. I wanted to take him to the Machine Head concert on Sunday (as I knew he would really enjoy it) but I knew as the unhealthy character he wouldn't make it. I've just started up my P2 again in hopes of getting him before then.

Priestess - Oooh, Manson was amazing!! I have not liked his recent albums at all, but to hear the old tunes was brilliant. There was a moment, where he came down to the crowd, I was about 3 people back, and he came right down to us, and I looked into his eyes, he looked back and for some reason, I freaked out.  I know his eyes are just contacts, but with those plus the atmosphere of all the excitement and music, it was one of the most surreal moments of my life. Hard to explain, haha, he just looked so unnatural and yet he was the artist I used to dream about seeing. We came from that concert very bruised and sore, but happy.
I'm not sure how that rock formation came about, we tried figuring it out when we were there, it's just so perfectly smooth and shaped! It's bizarre!

Madcow - Haha, you don't sound like a creep, and thankyou. ^.^ I haven't got a haircut professionally for about 2 years now, I cut it myself. At first I was too lacking in money to pay for it cut at a salon, but then I realised cutting it myself is sort of liberating, a nice feeling when you grab the scissors and hack away at it. Sometimes it ends up bad, but I think I'm getting better over time.

Acidiica - Ah, I've never managed to get a P1 yet, Kuchipatchi does look like a sweetie. 

Spot turned into the teenage Apple a short while after I wrote my last entry, I adore this character! Hopefully after Sunday she will have someone to connect and play with when I hatch another.

Must go take care of the new little P2 baby, you all have a wonderful day, wherever you are in the world.

You're brave! I like his music and all but I just can't stand his face, especially the eyes.
The dude's friggin scary. >_<

Sorry to hear about you Kusatchi.
I really love those guys and I think 12 years is awesome.
I've only managed to get mine to 10. 
I hope you'll get to meet him again. =D

Love your log btw. 

Edited: Loads of smilies.

[acidiica]

I adore Kusatchiiiii. I'm so sorry for your loss of him. I love his name a lot cos it sounds like the russian word "kusatchii," which actually means "having a tendency to bite" if you translate it. I always thought it was the cutest name. I hope you get him back!

I like Manson, but I'm sure I would have to bite back a gasp if he came that close to me. My eyes would probably get wider bigger than they already are... heh.

[Bojko]

Hehe, yeah, he definitely did his job at freaking me out for a moment that night. That's why I love him. Haha =P

I had a rough night last night, I had this dream again, where I am just in bed, but I cannot get out. It's hard to explain, as I'm aware I'm asleep, but everything just seems so claustrophobic and terrifying. I keep thinking I see people in my room, and music playing. I could have sworn it was real until I got up trying to open my door and couldn't.
I'm actually quite concerned, as this is the second time this has happened in a week. I remember screaming in my "dream" that I am very afraid was what I actually did. The feeling is just so intense at one point I tried to force myself to wake, which I managed to do but suddenly as soon as I closed my eyes, I fell back asleep. I tried calling out for help to my flatmates too... another thing I fear I actually did, I will have to ask them when they get up. Not a good sign as to the mental health of my dream state, usually they are full of life and colour, happy moments. 

Aside from that though, I was VERY happy to have a reason to get up and join in the Tamagotchi hatching. We're all there now, so nice to have a group of people around the world to greet in the morning. Wish I had something to hatch, but batteries seem rare to find, Kmart stopped stocking the specific ones needed.

I have a concert to go to in 5 hours. @_@ Machine Head and Trivium, two of the biggest names in metal right now. And, I got to tell you, a sleep deprived, freaked out Jen is not how I want to be for it. I hope to get my moshin' on like I do normally.

This concert is going to be brutal...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I just realised this blog is a bit of a downer, I shall add some photos of the other night. Our Student Housing had a ball, but for those who couldn't afford to go or missed out on tickets, we held our own 'Rejects Ball'. Just a few people who came to our flat, our first hosted party. Some of us dressed to impress in our dresses too hehe. Good times, good times.


(Not even an elegant black dress can keep the rocker out of me.)


Me on the left and a few of our close flat friends and flatmates.

The concert was, as expected: brutal.

It had been a while since I've been to a really heavy concert, and in such that time I had forgotten how insane the pits can get. Imagine: its a few minutes before the show, everyone is getting pumped, you start to worry: this is no place for a happy viewing. You look around, there's absolutely no way of moving out backwards out of the pit, you start to worry. There's a big push in the crowd, they are throwing the little kids out of the crowd, literally grabbing them and hurling them over, they have no place there (as some believe). The lights dim... there is movement.

All the anxiety was for a good reason, and soon as that first drum beat hits, the pit turns into a state of pure aggressiveness. You are getting hurt, you cannot breathe, the music is pounding through. But, for some reason, it's the best feeling in the world.

I only stayed in the pit for a few songs, I am not built for such an environment, I was going to get hurt. I always think I can handle it, but, when it comes down to it, I really can't. I moved off to the side a bit, where I was safe and man did the bands rock.

First was Arch Enemy, which I was diggin'. Next was Trivium, it was absolute fun show, my friend James managed to get atop of the crowd at the exact moment when we all were keyed into a war chant. Perfect timing! But then, the final act, the band we were all there for: Machine Head.

They went off. My neck and throat were so sore, headbanging and thrashing around, screaming the lyrics, chanting can really do a number on ones body. It was an awesome night, it rekindled my love for nonsensical agro-filled moshing.

Lead guitarist and singer, Robert Flynn. He really made the Perth crowd feel special:

Now for a complete subject change, but a more appropriate one for this board.. my Tamagotchi! ^.^

I have three going now, as I unpaused my Blue V2 for the sake of the TSS anniversary hatch. Strange... 1 year its been since mimitchi.com forums opened up its doors.

Warning: nostalgic memories ahead:

For some of us the mimitchi forums have had a special place in our hearts for quite a number of years. I remember the old forums, I remember their layout, the avatars, the people we got to know on there, all the old hatchings we used to have. Oh, I remember getting up at 5am for hatchings, sitting there in the family room all happy and gleeful to know that the rest of the house is sleeping, and I'm up there with people all around the world.
I remember sCArs, who turned out to be one of the best people I ever knew. We used to send endless PM's over the forums, and also MSN. He sent me a Christmas card one year, and I helped him get a P2 from Jason's store, it took a while. He sent me the AUS money, I ordered it off ebay and had to exchange that for US dollars, sent that through snail mail, got the Tamagotchi, and then sent it back to him! Hahaha, good times, good times. Then we both had a P2 to share amongst the new and exciting Connexions.
I remember when the board went off unexpectedly, I was hoping it was a minor error... to find out that it wasn't coming back in the immediate future was a real loss. But, my Tamagotchi still kept with me throughout the long wait till it finally came back online this time last year.

I remember the day I got the email from Kat informing us of the new forums. My excitement could not be contained. The once constant stable thing in my life was back! Back to be enjoyed after a long day of study and work, of days when things don't go right, to enjoy late at night with a nice coffee.

mimitchi.com was back. TSS was here.

I love this community. Very much so.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Whoa, I'm sorry about that.. haha. A very emotional Jen sitting here, one of those nights. 

Where was I? Oh yes! My three!



As you can see, My V4 Spot turned into a Mimitchi ( ) and had a son, she will probably leave tonight or next, leaving behind a new generation I look forward to getting to know. I did not manage to get Kusatchi as I had hoped, but was greeted with this little guy instead, he's a cutie huh? =)

Tom (the anniversary baby) is still only young, I have no idea what he will be but he is having a grand old time linking with Spot, it's good to have two Connexions up and running, they play such cute games. Although, I don't think Spot is too impressed as she is beaten by Tom at an astounding ratio, haha.

I hope I haven't babbled on too much in this entry.... had a lot to talk about, I suppose. Happy (late) Halloween! 

[Bojko]

Good news!!!!

There I was, in Kmart. Bank account happily at a steady few hundred dollars, looking to buy something nice for working so hard last week.
Walked around, spent a good half hour in there trying on clothes, looking at books. Nothing really peeked my interest. Looked at the Tamagotchi stand but still no signs of the V4.5. Dissapointed, I was walking out, when I saw it...

A whole display wall of the Tamagotchi V4.5 PC Packs!!!! 

They were on special, just come out for $39.95. Too good to be true! I snapped one up and bounced over to the checkout. Reminding myself that I really needed to go grocery shopping, I trudged along and got some food for the week, desperately wanting to get home to crank out this new addition to the Tama family.

So here I am, box still unopened... it looks too nice to open... I don't think I'll be able to take full advantage of the PC additions though, as it says on the packet the need of 500 odd something RAM, whereas I only have half of that on this computer. >.> But, that doesn't matter, the globe Tamagotchi is hella neat, as is the little tree stand. Couldn't resist the temptation. ^.^

Plus, my speakers dont work, but I have now a microphone, hopefully I'll get to chat to some of you guys sometime over the net!

Me tooling around with the camera and my PC pack:





Okay, just opened it.
Ooh, wow! The globe Tamagotchi looks so pretty up close!
*pulls tab*
*sets time, waits*

Tamagotchi is born! It's a little girl, what to call her..... I think I'll call her Fawke, as it is Guy Fawkes night tonight... oh dang, for some reason, it only entered 4 letters, must have pressed space... her name is Fawk. XD Oh my.

Just played the Climb game, it's cute, and fun, I like it.

-------------------

Oh wow, the CD installed! Except, my audio device on this computer is whacked, so unfortunately cannot get the microphone to work properly either. I'm going to get one of my IT friends, he offered to come round and look at it one day soon... so hopefully it'll get fixed soon.

All in all, was a wonderful find to see the V4.5's in Kmart!
I'm off for an afternoon nap, must wake to work on a research project due next week. I'm getting through it slowly...

[Madcow]

lmao @ Fawk.  Great name.  I am seriously considering getting a PC pack now!! I'm jealous, definitely!

[Bojko]

Last night I went to Muse... man, it was a wonderful show!
It was held in the Supreme Court Gardens, a park within the city, I had never been there before but it turned out to be one of the best venues. Giant BDO like stage with the buildings behind it, sun going down. I went with a few friends of mine and we lazed around till the bands started.
The supporting act was a local band called 'The Dirty Secrets', and... yeah... enjoying the tunes, getting pumped for Muse when all of a sudden they stopped the entire show! They apparently wanted everyone to step back away from the barricade... eeh? It's a concert, you expect people to crowd around. They ended up reassembling the entire barricade which stopped the whole show for about an hour. We weren't happy...

After a long wait, the supporting band finished their set and soon after Muse hit the stage. Such a show! The stage set up was amazing, even the drum kit had flashing lights built in. They played all the songs we wanted to hear, except for my personal favourite Blackout, which I would have loved to have heard. But they did play Invincible... which... brought a tear or two to my eye I have to admit. "'Cause tonight.. we can truly say.. together we're invincible." 

My friends and I managed to stick together for the entire show, the crowd was very mellow.. a nice change from the previous concerts I went to. Megadeth and co. also played last night, I desperately wanted to go... but, I have no regrets.

All in all, brilliant night. It was a fantastic way to celebrate the end of semester and relax before exam period.

The stage and city:


Joel, Ben and I hanging around before the band:


Muse:


So now there are no more big shows until Big Day Out (Rage Against the Machine and Bjork) and Iron Maiden in February next year.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My Tamas are going well, they have been subject to my strange schedule this past week with finishing classes, work and catching up on some well needed sleep.

My Green V4, whom I named Epica, is currently a teen. I plan to mate her with my TSS anniversary baby Tom when they grow up. Tom is an Onionitchi, and should be changing either today or tomorrow.

My PC Pack V4.5 is happy, a young Memetchi. So I have three young rebellious teenagers on my hands.

I'm working hard on my nominations for the TSS awards. ^.^ Shall be fun to see the completed nominations and winners.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It's a Sunday afternoon. Sun is out, (hot weather is here..) and I have the day to spend working on an assignment. That concert last night really made me feel optimistic about the upcoming Summer holidays. The past two have been full of change (some for good, some not so).
In Summer 2005 it saw me spending the last few months at home, locked away in my room. I was preparing for Uni and moving out, which I welcomed greatly. Although, I did get to know some wonderful people during that time, some of whom will be friends for life, as seen in above pictures. It was just a very strange time, a lot of change. I am not well adapted for change, I move in life too slowly, I like to take everything in before jumping head first into a completely new chapter in my life.
Summer 2006... while the year itself was the most amazing experience I ever had, with meeting all these new people from classes and the Student Village, learning to live and support myself, making the friendships much stronger and meeting a most wonderful friend Jarrad.... the end of it bought much hardship. Jarrad and I dated throughout the entire year, but I don't cope well with Summer. I get very upset at times when I am at home with nothing to do. There were some fantastic nights, but Jarrad and I just sort of grew further and further apart.. which did lead to a farewell at the end of that Summer.

Sad times. But, this Summer I am feeling rather good. There are no big changes ahead, just good times and laughs. Something big might happen, but I do welcome it with somewhat open arms, I have been feeling like I have been caught in a monotonous routine lately, I think I can handle a slight change. Who knows what could happen...

... Dang, I really should start a blog or something outside of TSS, and just keep to Tamagotchi news here. >.< Hope you guys don't mind, I am one to speak of things that are on my mind, sometimes I get carried away. I blame the weather. Blue skies and sunny days.

Hope you guys all have a wonderful week! 

[Seraphim]

I'm glad you had a great time watching Muse! It sounded awesome, tho.  Lucky pie. =P

I don't mind. I don't mind at all. In fact, I love it! Makes things a bit more intresting.

I blame the weather. Blue skies and sunny days.

Hope you guys all have a wonderful week! 

In that case I'm thanking the wather, blue skies and the sunny days for you. =P

Not sure I've told you this before, if not: I do love your logs. Keep it up!

Seraphim.

[acidiica]

It's your log... do what you wish with it! Alex and I are known for veering into designer pictures and items... heehee. But that venue for the concert looked amazing. It must have been so relaxing. I've never been to a concert my entire life, but you make me really want to go to one!

Hope your tamas are doing well, and study well for your exams! Unlike me, of course XD
