メリクリスマス!

Recent Actions:
Well, as you all know Christmas finally came around the corner. I received a large amount of clothing along with other cool stuff including a Pocket Watch. xD This Christmas is one of a kind!


Technical:
Hey, I tried out the new Google Chrome and its pretty sweet. Definitely fits the eyecandy now... I did try Google Chrome before while it was in beta, but now that it is not in beta anymore, it seems to be quite the Browser. I also have been using and tweaking my Linux OS. Definitely eyecandy as well. I do have Windows Vista HOME BASIC, which is not the kind for real eyecandy. I need 7 or Leopard. Dx

I have also been exploring the wonderful world of Blender. I have been working on some rather awesome intros for RSP. Please watch out for some new ones while in development. More information below in the Web Section.


Japanese Language:
I have been putting Japanese Kanji on some Flash Cards and have been working on my Japanese that way, I will make a print out for y'all later on how I put the stuff on the Flash Cards. ^^


Website Updates:
Getting there with my Rein Sector Productions website. I have been making a couple Animations regarding a new RSP intro, so watch out on the new videos for a cool little intro/exit. ^^


Graphics:
I have had a humongous pause on my Graphic Design for a couple weeks. I will be making more because of the Christmas Break. School is overrated imo.


Music:
I found out about a new type of music that I enjoy quite alot. I don't know the exact Genre yet, but an example is Fat Jon. Check it out if you would like to.



どうもありがと皆さん!

An Amazing Weekend!

こにちは!
きおくです。

Recent Actions:
I had a pretty good weekend this weekend, I first went to a concert then am currently working at my new job. ^^ The concert was amazing! It was a very unique concert to any I have ever gone to. About the job, I have been working with my dad as a volunteer for a couple days, and talked to him about actually staying and being an employee. This would help me with getting my Productions up and in cost soon. Some products will still be free, while some will have price. But, it will help me out with my expenses, which I would be deeply grateful for! ^^


Technical:
I have been planning on making a lot of tutorials for programs and such. So, if you would like me to go over something, this would be the time to ask me. ^^

またね!

Thanksgiving!

こにちは皆さん!
きおくです。


Recent Actions:
Well, Thanksgiving was good today. We had a very good Turkey Dinner with stuffing, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, cranberry bread, with some delicious Yorkshire Puddings! Then we played some games for about an hour or two. Then Dessert came with Pumpkin and Banana Cream Pie! Deliciousness! Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving!


Website Updates:
My new Website is now finished! Go check it out at http://www.kioku-web.webs.com/ !

こにちは!
きおくです。

Recent Actions:
Well everybody, I am having a change of thought about my current website. I am thinking about changing it to an online portfolio where I am going to place all my arts. It is going to be changed many times and will have all my art on it. I have learned some new things in my current Multimedia class that I have in school. While making a new website, I will most likely be able to make some awesome flash animations. Just wish I had my own Adobe Flash CS3 so that I could work on getting better more often. School is slowing down a little bit though, which is nice, and won't have so much stress on my shoulders. Thanksgiving is also coming soon, and can't wait for it! I'm planning on fasting the whole day on Thanksgiving until the dinner. ^^


Technical:
I installed my new Linux Mint 7 Gloria on my computer with its own partition, and am loving it! I'm on my new Linux right now, and am enjoying the experience. There are a couple flaws, but there are no flaws that I can not live with. I will be posting about it later on my Tech Blog.


Websites:
Like I said, making a new website. I will be posting my updates on my RSP Blog. ^^

Crash and Burn

こにちは皆さん!
きおくですよ。

Recent Events:
Yo peeps, I've been so busy these past weeks you don't even know. Today is Sunday, and I think that only on Sunday's I will be able to make Blog Posts like this. This past week I have been waiting for my Ears to heal from my past Surgery. My right ear is completely healed, but I am still waiting for my left ear to completely heal. My left ear has felt like it the volume intake has gone down, which means that I can't hear very well out of that ear. It is strange trying to explain my differences to someone with normal hearing... meh~ Anyways, I also have been having to give a talk at Church (LDS) and, have been procrastinating a couple weeks due to the Surgery, and due to being gone with my Father. I was going to do it this week, but... Fast Sunday. Great... lol. Well, I guess I am waiting till next week, again. I recently also got some new Airwalks from Payless Shoe Source. My dad bought me them because of 3 reasons; 1. My Converse All-Stars are getting a little worn out. 2. The weather is cooling down, and my Converses would not go very far by themselves while the rain and snow comes. 3. I only have 3 pairs of shoes; excluding the new ones I just got. (I have my Converse All-Stars, Route 66 Flip-Flops, and my Church Shoes) So, if you wanna see 'em; Here's a Payless Shoe Source image of the NOSEBONE Airwalks. Halloween went pretty well too considering the circumstances we were in. First, my little brother was planning on going to a party and wanted to have some fun and go Trick or Treat'ing with his friends. But, he missed out because he couldn't find the place. So, he just ended up going trick or treating with me, which is something I really enjoyed at the time and how everything came together. I wasn't dressed up or anything. I just went as me, and people still gave me candy. I am 17 yrs old right now too, so... lol. Then after that we went to my Dads house to watch IRONMAN; which is a movie that I just got, then almost fell asleep on the bed while watching the movie. xD It was fun. ^^ Now... here comes the bad news. School... I have had the worst time trying to catch up in school. I have not actually taken to account on how many credits I really need to make up for school. I will be extra busy, pretty much the rest of my school year. I probably will have a couple weekends off to do whatever, but it is pretty much just going all out on School and trying my best to get my credits back into place. I need to make sure that I don't fail any classes this year... I have not had such a good start on that this year. I need to try harder...


Technical:
Alrighty, Well, I have not been doing much Technical stuff because of my Schooling... But, I did find a program that is a pretty nice program for a unique style of presenting topics. I will most likely be using this; it is called Prezi. (http://prezi.com/) There is a tour video on there that will put you through what it is used for and how to use it. It is really really simple, and I found it very useful!


Website Updates:
Well, I am thinking about remaking my personal website. I am going to do so because the website I have is not organized enough or, in other words, I could do better with the organization, and some things on my current website are not really needed... (like the blogging part of the website; I am already doing it here) I also have recently been really upset about Webs.com making their free pages completely webs.com affiliated with their new blue bar on the top of all the webpages I have... I don't have any extra mula to pay for a server. I just wish they would have kept their regular plan to keep the blue bar off the webpages... I will most likely NEVER use Webs.com again, once I find another good free hosting website, I am moving. If anyone has any suggestions of any free web hosting that doesn't have ugly "watermark" on it; please do comment.


Graphics:
I am really happy with the tag I recently made titled AquaTimez.png in the [new!] Graphic Design Blog. (http://kioku-webgfx.blogspot.com/) The other 2 on there, were just experimental tags. I am planning on organizing that blog more later, so it is not completely Official yet... I am also going to make some Twitter buttons on each blog for those that are reading the blogs, and have not followed me on Twitter yet. Want to add me? http://Twitter.com/Memory_

Movies:
Well, over the Halloween Weekend I recently got 2 new movies. One is IRONMAN and another is my #1 Favorite THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW. These are not newly watched movies, so im not planning on making reviews for them. If you would like me to, request it by comment.

Surgery Week

こにちは!
きおくです。

Recent Actions:
Well, all those that have not heard, this past week I had 2 surgery's this week. One was to a Nodule that I had on my face, and another one was to my eardrums. The Nodule was nothing, they just had to get that out of my face and then stitch it back up. But, my eardrums are a long story. I had a staff infection when I was a baby which ate away my right eardrum and put holes in my left eardrum. I went a had a surgery on them a while back, and then had a swimming accident that busted my eardrums again. So, then I had holes in both of my eardrums. Now, this surgery was to completely fix my eardrums up. I will most likely swim with earplugs the rest of my life. Not a biggy, but, not normal either. xD

Right now, I am stuck with cotton balls in my ears from the bleeding, and am waiting for a couple days to get more comfortable with my newly fixed ears. ^^


Technical:
I recently installed the Media Monkey that I researched a little while ago. I was looking to replacing Winamp with this Media Monkey. But, I didn't. The rest of the story is on my Tech Blog. (Link coming soon!)


Japanese Language:
Just studying my kanji right now. Still don't know too much about how to read the Kanji...

I am planning on redoing my Japanese Blog posts so that they are more productive and easier to use to one that has never been introduced to the Japanese Language. So, look forward to an update.


Graphics:
I made a new Graphics Blog for this subject, and will be posting ALL of my recently finished projects and some new stuff that I learn also. http://kioku-webgfx.blogspot.com/

A Long Weekend

きおくです。


Recent Actions:
Went to my dads this weekend again. Had a pretty fun time, didn't have much money to really go anywhere, but we still had fun. We watched one movie at the house through RedBox, and one at the movie theater. The Redbox Movie was called THE SOLOIST, and the on at the theater that I was quite happy to see was GI JOE : RISE OF THE COBRA. (See my reviews in "Movies" below) My dad bought these cookies that were really tasty! They were Almond Cookies that were made by some Dutch maker. Can't remember the exact name of the brand, but hope I can taste those cookies again. すごいでした!


Technical:
I have had a privilege to be able to be on Adobe Photoshop CS3 in my Multi-Media Class at school and will now have access to it every time I go to school. I am most likely going to make a Graphic Design Tag with CS3 if I get the time to do so. Right at the moment, we are going into Adobe Flash. Hopefully I can learn a bunch of new stuff there too. Of course it will take a while, but just can't wait to make some of my own animations/works.

I also learned how to make some good notes on my iPod Classic. I figured out how to make Japanese/Kanji Characters show/save on Notepad. More Information about how to do this go to the Article about iPod Classic Japanese Notes on Memory's Tech Blog. (Link: http://kiokutech...ipod-classic-notes-for-asian-characters.html )


Japanese Language:
I think I have a fetish coming on... I am getting more phrases to learn, learning more Kanji, and wanting to learn new verbs. I figured out how to make Notes on my iPod Classic for the help of that. Enable to read Japanese/Kanji Characters, on the iPod I needed to learn how to save the Windows Notepad file (.txt) to a certain type. More information above in the "Techincal" Section.


Website Updates:
Well, My Administraton work for Luminous Designs (http://luminousdesigns.tk/) has put into making a website for them. So, now along with my recreation of my Productions Website (Rein Sector Productions) I will be creating the Luminous Designs Website. Visit Rein Sector Productions Blog for the latest work updates.


Graphics:
I did start to make a tag at my Multi-Media class with Adobe Photoshop CS3... but I don't think I saved it... So, I will try to make a new one in the past days while I am currently learning Adobe Flash.


Movies:
I watched GI JOE : THE RISE OF THE COBRA and THE SOLOIST while hanging out with my Dad this weekend. My reviews on these 2 movies are below:

GI JOE : THE RISE OF THE COBRA
I really enjoyed this movie mostly because of the 2 rival Ninjas that were in it. (Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow) But, the part at the end where the President comes back to the White House; He starts to whistle a tune that one of the bad guys was in a habit of whistling. That could be interpreted in two ways; He could be the bad guy, or he could somehow "change" to a bad guy. The ending was a tiny bit confusing, but other than that, it was an awesome movie! Definitely worthy for my DVD collection!

THE SOLOSIST
This movie was quite hard to follow. But other than that, from what I understood it was a very good movie. I had to put on the subtitles because of how low the audio volume was. But, I liked it a lot. It is worthy for my movie collection.

Socialize

きおくです。


Technical:
I was able to mess with MSN Messengers Games while chatting with some friends. Never did that before, but it was a fitting experience. We had fun. But, when we tried to have more than 2 people play games, it didn't work. That was a shame.


Website Updates:
I am currently working on the RSP Announcements website. It is looking good. I will soon post an image preview on the RSP Blog for the Announcements also.


Music:
My goodness, I heard a song play in my Multi-media class a while back, and now I have found the song. And have been listening to it ever since! It is Fireflies by Owl City. The Music Video for this song is awesome too!

Just Making It Happen

きおくです。


Technical:
My Dad has been telling me about a bunch of stuff that he keeps getting on his computer, and I keep telling him that I can get all that stuff from my Freeware sources. If anyone wants me to specify my Freeware list, please comment this post.


Japanese Language:
I am wondering whether or not to start with the Kanji in my Japanese Book of Mormon, or first by learning the Kanji with the less number of strokes and working up... Confused...


Website Updates:

Getting the Rein Sector Productions actual Template made. Preview on the RSP Website post on the RSP Blog will soon be updated.


Graphics:
I've been messing with Photoshop CS3 at my High School and will be posting a 'New Tag made by me on CS3' later. Just a clue, It is Johnny Cash. xD


Movies:
Convinced my Little Brother to watch the classic movie, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers. He actually really enjoyed it, and he is now singing songs from that movie around the house and keeps watching it over and over again. Now I can't get him to change his movie again. Dx

Getting used to...

きおくです。


Japanese Language:
I have been taking more Japanese into account because of the Videos I have been watching. (Japanese Interviews and such) I now seek to learn more about the Japanese Language. So, I will definitely be working on my Japanese Language Blog content. So, that is good for the followers of that blog.


Website Updates:
I am currently working on the remake of the Rein Sector Productions website, I am still working on the layout/template of the website. Once I have a preview, I will post it on the RSP Website. So watch for that.

I also currently changed a couple thing on the Personal website; I made another post and added a link on the RSP Recent Works.


Movies:
I watched the movie TAKEN for the second time. And this movie is actually about #6 out of 10 on my favorite movies list. I will most likely post up the whole movie list later, but TAKEN is a very good mixed movie with action/drama. It does, however, have quite a shaky ending. Which means that it is a good ending, but it should have shown at least a little bit more of what was going to happen.

I also watched TRANSFORMERS : REVENGE OF THE FALLEN. Extremely long movie, but a good one. Everything seems to go by a little too fast, but it is still a good movie.

Productive?

Well, this is my second-ish post of making my Blog more "New" as posted last time.

Recent Actions:
Nothing really has gone on since the last post. Its just a new week, starting fresh. Hopefully I can be more confident as far as my attitude goes this week. Dx Last week went by as faster that you can say Peanut Butter.


Technical:
I currently made my phone Twitter able. As those that are following me on Twitter.com, I now have the "20 minutes ago from txt" so now I can just Tweet from anywhere, pretty much. Hopefully my phone doesn't die. Dx

I also updated my TwitterFox Add-on for Firefox. Read a Review from me on my Tech Blog about TwitterFox. http://kiokutech.blogspot.com/... firefox.html : D


Japanese Language:
Gosh! I need to get my Kanji and Verbs going! I can't seem to get them started. I have Flash cards and everything. For those that would like some resources either Google "Japanese Verbs", or go to http://www.epochrypha.com/japanese/verbs/verbs.html or/and http://jisho.org/ . Jisho.org is very useful! Keep it as a Bookmark! You'll need it a bunch if you are intermediate in Japanese. : D

Making it New

Well, I am going to make this blog more personal wise as far as categories go. I am going to be posting anything that comes to mind that I feel like posting on. Before this post, I was posting about things that were at a certain standard and were "critical" to blog about. Now, its just free-for-all.

I am going to be posting anything that comes to mind really. Any stories, opinions, or philosophies.

Thanks for those that have been following, now you will be getting more out of my blog. : D


Here are some things that I have been doing recently:

I watched the movie FIGHTING.
This movie was a pretty nice movie. Most of it was about competitions and getting money from fighting in competitions one-on-one. But, it does have a twist of romance and has feeling. Some people might say it was all about fighting. Well yeah, but you are most likely going to get more out of it, if you pay attention.

Chillin at my dads.
Well, not really "Chillin". I'm just here for the weekend. :3 My brother is bugging me to get his iPod Shuffle updated and he wants me to put a bunch of Rap/Hip Hop stuff on it, (totally not my taste) and I am thinking that half of the stuff that he wants me to put on his Shuffle, isn't going to happen. I am now also connected to the internet through my dads Cricket Air Card. It lets you connect to the internet anywhere that has Cell Phone reception. I wanted to get an actual router connection so I could download some graphics for my websites yesterday, which didn't happen. I went over a friends house and they had a wireless router, and one laptop. None of them knew the password though. That didn't make me as happy as I anticipated. So, I just decided to watch FIGHTING again with my little brother. He was dead asleep on the couch when I got there though. Before I started watching FIGHTING, I made 2 new Graphic Design Tags, I will be posting them on PlanetRenders.net Forums, JustDubsForums.com, and probably Deviantart.com. (tsutaebanashi.deviantart.com)

Please visit my website at KIOKU-WEB.WEBS.COM and add me to your web networks.

My Theory of Teaching.

Every teacher has there own theory of doing so. I am going to state my theory. I do like giving out test, but my way of giving them the test would be way different. I would probably be splitting up the room to those who are just there for the credit to graduate, or are there to learn something from the class i am currently teaching and want to carry the experience and knowledge throughout their life, or are just there to be with friends and are really not planning on graduating.

Those that are just there for the credit to gradute, i would be giving them all the answers. I would have them do the assignments, and then give them a test or quiz and see what they can do and then give them the answer. I would make up a score on their participation or excuses to not participate. For example; one person has slept pretty much all the way through class, he has the excuse of staying up and working on an essay that was today. That is acceptable. But, if he is sleeping in class because he stayed up playing Halo all night, then that is not acceptable. F for him, and A for the other guy that was staying up to make up/work on an assignment.

The people that are there for the experince and knowledge. I would give them the full-fledged class experience with some excpetions. I would give them the exact calculation to their assignments, quizes, and tests. But, if i were to feel somewhat lazy some days, then i would not require them to do anything along with the whole class. A teacher does need some of those days. The teachers arn't exactly robots you know.

Now, to those people that are just there for no apperent reason. They are just there because their mother told them that if you don't go to school they will be losing their valubles and priviledges. I don't care. If they are there to be lazy, I will let them. They just have to obey the rules of the class or they will be out of the coolest class of the whole school, in my opinion. (of course)

To the body of the class, there is no such thing as "cheating" in my class. You can "cheat" whenever you need to.

I would be playing music for the class along with letting them listen to their ipods while i sit at my desk. But, when i am talkig, they need to take one headphone out and, at least, act like they are listening. I would try to have a party each term in school and the class will decide when we shall have the party. I would be allowing food and drink. They just need to make sure they be careful, and when they spil something, make sure to get the mess-clean-up kit and make sure they clean it up right at that moment. Everyone that can, should help out to that person that spilt their food or drink. I have spilt a drink before, and cleaning it by yourself sucks. Bad.


So, note to self: I would be the coolest teacher ever, and you know it.

Forgiveness upon the whole world.

Think about that... What if we had forgiveness upon the whole world? There would not be any misunderstanding because no one would want the real truth. There would not be any fights because no one would feel hate upon another. There wouldn't even be any "police" to boss us around. Forgiveness comes upon freedom. If there is only forgiveness, then there wouldn't be any money for anyone to steal because everything would be free anyways. The reason being because the buyer would want that item that is being sold for free anyways, so therefore he would steal it. But, if there is complete forgiveness, then it wouldn't exactly be stealing would it? So, then again, everything would be given to you for free. Since there is forgiveness, there is no need for disipline and this world wouldn't mean anything. We need discipline to grow, so we can't just get everything free and have it be discipline free and complete forgiving.

From this, what solution sounds more un-necessary?
1. I am going to commit suicide because i have so much suffering in my life and i can't even keep up with it and i don't mean anything to anyone.
2. I am going to commit suicide because there is no trial and suffering to gain me up.

1. This solution makes more sense looking to the current world that we live in. But, this solution is more un-necessary according to this article, the suffering is here to build you up. More suffering, more power. If you get through those sufferings that God has given you1 than you will be
able to learn, be more wise, and gain more blessings from God. Pain is healing, healing without pain is a miracle.

2. This solution according to this article sounds more accurate. You shouldn't be living in a world with complete forgivness because there is no suffering/power. This world would be completely pointless.


We cannot have what we want. Live through life the best you can.



1: God could stop all your suffering, but he doesn't choose to stop the suffering until you pray to him asking for help and offer sacrifice. The sacrifice i am referring to is the kind that you do probably everyday of your life. For example; You want to have some chocolate cake but you are on a diet. The sacrifice would be to not eat any chocolate cake and make sure you lose some weight. But, not giving into the sacrifice can make you fatter. Give the sacrifice, don't eat the chocolate cake.
