Not, I'm not taking pictures of my games, but everything else related to Pokemon. I have a small collection of trading cards, figurines and stuff. Okay, my trading card collection is huge. But I won't be scanning all of them. Been collecting for nearly ten years now, and although I've slowed down, I don't plan to stop yet. The only things I collect now are the occasional booster packs, movie promos and other rare cards(boosters are quite expensive). Most of them I got off eBay for quite a reasonable price.

The two on the left are ancient things, the Southern Islands folder collection with 18 cards and the Pikachu World Collection, with 9 different Pikachu cards in 9 different languages. I keep all my promo cards in that Southern Island folder, actually. Got around 50 of them. The big Pokemon portrait in the middle is what I got from a trip. All the pieces are transparent, which is very cool looking if you hold it up against a window. Plus all the cute Pokemon are in it The folder on the right is the 10th Movie Anniversary card collection, with promos of the legendary Pokemon from the Pokemon movies from Mewtwo to Darkrai. Not pictured is the 11th movie card folder.

See that red colored box on the right? That's where I keep all my cards. And the two blue files on top of it? That's all my holographic cards. Last I counted there were about 400.

A select few of my good cards. Six Lv. Xs, some recent promos, and three [your name here] legendary cards from a nine card set. I regret not buying the whole set, but these three are good enough.

And here's my collection of small figurines. They're from my local Toys R Us. I'm sure you guys have got it better than me when it comes to availability of toys like these, but these are the only ones I have. I plan to buy more as they bring new shipments in. The Chikorita is a mini plush doll, and the Pikachu is a sun-powered bobblehead. Quite possibly the cutest one I've seen thus far XD

And finally, my big Manaphy plush doll AA battery to scale.

Wahahahahaha

Full comboed one of the hardest songs in this rhythm game. And yes, my Wii can play imports.

Normally I don't blog about real life, since it isn't as interesting or relevant to this site as blogging about games, but this time I'm making an exception.

That's because tomorrow is my high school's graduation day. It's going to be one of the most memorable days of my life, as it should be for most of you. Spending all those years in school, whether they leave good memories or bad ones in your mind, you can't help but miss those days when the time comes. And now it's that time for me. I like my school, so I don't really regret not doing enough in school/not being more appreciative/not making enough friends/not participating in more activities, because I have. Not as many as most, but pretty much enough in my mind.

I've spent 7 long years in this high school, and finally leaving it feels just, well, sad. But why is this graduation day special to me?

It's my grades.

I don't brag about them, I never feel like they're good enough, but right now I just want to gush out and tell someone about them. Tomorrow, I walk up the stage and claim an award for being number one in the stream. First place. Top of the form. Awesomeness Never in my long history of schooling have I ever had this happen to me before. The best I got was 2nd place, and only once before. So this is the first and last time I'll ever claim the top spot for myself. It's really quite a fitting end, lol.

It's a long hard battle against my exams, and finally it all pays off . After graduation day, my performance in the government exam will decide my future. Au revoir, high school!
