音時雨 ～Regentropfen～

In the following week, it seems to be near 30°C everyday.
Not a good thing at all, I feel I'm melting down. Due to it, my timezone is getting weird. But, that's why I'm having my own 27-hour custom time display...
Summer should not exist... u_u

In the past month, I know I'm too deep in the world of dark souls, and eventually, I became the dark lord on this Monday. Before the last boss, which wasn't that a big trouble, I sort of "gave up" on the DLC boss Manus and hit him down far away outside with my +5 lighting longbow... I'd never say I'm getting any better in this, but I'm much more confident with the world map, as I've died so many times and thus the map naturally embedded into my mind. Beating Gywn without parry -- impossible for someone who barely parried throughout the entire gameplay -- I kited him around the stalactite-ish rock and achieved victory soon within 3 retries. This made me satisfied and also stimulated my mind of "to return to the normal". But it didn't mean I stopped. I just entered the second round, and was quite pleasant with my current weapons, the sharp lifehunt scythe, which didn't make me feeling too bad in a harder mode -- I'm not that skilful enough to handle the dragonslayer spear with no flaw, I apologise.
So in the next morning, I with a rather excited voice holding my Piccolo and saying aloud: "I'm gonna be normal again since today!" But still he didn't like people holding him and quickly slid away. ^^;

Sometimes there's a melody lingering in my head but I just can't recall its name. Like yesterday, when I evenually recognised another piece that had been drifting over weeks. "Scenda Amor, scenda Imeneo", the last chorus from Idomeneo. But it's so strange that I could even remember any other piece of melody from it, as mainly my focus on this opera is the aria that Akiko covered in Shadow Hearts 3...

だから今日から、この七夕のきっかけで、「普通」に戻ろう。未完成の「輝夜」イメージ、もう二度とやり直したくないドイツ語、頭の深くに沈んでする「企画」、そして…あれこれ、全てが私を待っている。でも、行動を行わないと始まらなくて続きもできないんだよ。
知ってるのこれぐらい。
だから、
私なりの時間を、今こそ紡ぎ出し直そう。

私なり絶対にできる（やる気マンマン）！

ちなみに…
リリィちゃんかわいいよぉぉ～～！！　（*´▽｀*）

最後に、遅れてる七夕のお祈り――
ダブルストップをうまく弾けますように！

時間だけはみんなに平等たるもの、だから早くても遅くても、あくまでは何ひとつも変えられない。それより、自分なりの行き方を見つけ出すのは、自分という存在を確かめ、時間の流れを大事に実感できる。

こんなにあれこれ書くことも、この時間が「通した」印を残せるので、今日の私もまた、自分なりの速さで頭のなかに積んでいる記憶を整理し、文字列に変換する！
激昂し過ぎるかな‥とりあえず始めよう～(´・ω・`)

3 days ago, I tried to unlock my Arc's bootloader. But it seemed not working, because the device itself is from a carrier. I don't want to pay whatever $$ that's required nor send it to the manifacture either. So I had to stay with ICS 4.0.4, until Arc is physically damaged or having a battery death.
Later I got a check on amazon, that in general Xperia not-so-new devices cost about $300, and Lumia series is usually lower than it, while Apple stuff is higher. Still, it's not saying anything about the bootloader (of course, not that many people would even care...).
Thus I asked on the product page, with little hope finding the answer. I began to wonder how many people are at least sort of geeks. Out of 4 answers I received (fairly quick response, it's my first time asking there any way), only 1 looked reasonable. And it also began to make sense, that why geek is a category that only fits a small amount of people.

It's getting off again.. ↓
Maybe a Windows phone can be my next choice, since I never really care about apps, which always have lots of ads.
However, it's not going to happen right now. I Arc is still fine (although I thought I almost killed it at that night). Or who knows if there's another way to force unlock it!

Psycho Break is going to have #2!
First I thought it's just rumours, but with the recent E3, I believe it's true, it's going to happen!

So, my first impression was: is it Zero?!
No wonder, there's a camera in front of his (= Seb?) face in the background, plus the screen shot (?) beside the text, that he's shooting a (old styled) camera-monster.
Also from the description, I feel it's going to be another Silent Hill 1. A father looks for the daughter, in a different "dimension".
Interesting. I'm really excited, even without knowing what roll the camera would play.

Reminder to myself, that I need to finish the DLC sometime, in order to have a more complete idea about the main plot (as the official DLC info claims).

Time to get a PS4, I've found a reason.

Although recently I'm enjoying my PS3 pretty much.
Yesterday I was not that surprised that I passed the 4 kings without "so many" tries, that I spent a whole week beating Ornstein and Smough after all!
It was so tough that I had to take a photo as a souvenir.

Black sorcerer series, I had no other choice as it's the lightest one to let me doing fast rolling.
First I was going to beat Smough second as he's slower, but I got upset because of his bulldozer plus butt-press were way too scary to me. Thus I switched to Ornstein as the second. It wasn't much easier either. But there's another reason behind. The world serpent thinks Smough's soul only is worth $1... not to mention I myself won't have a chance to hold his huge hammer after crafting the special demon weapon. Ornstein's spear looks so cool that I can't resist. I levelled up merely for taking that with single hand -- hope I'm not wasting my points.

In another search about the duo, I found this..

↓ Which explained why searching solely "Ornstein" will give you a related tag "Pikachu". xD;;

Catime: Piccolo likes KanColle too! :3

To differentiate between CERO C/D/Z is sort of meaningless. Although the physical difference (to me) can be that you'll need a local credit card for CERO Z. << what I've just remembered.

I'm mainly talking about this:

I saw the writer's name who wrote Higurashi series!!
It must be horror, isn't it!? Moe-Horror, my favourite~ (/･ω･)/
(Sadly it's CERO Z = no play or buy hard copy..)

And one more, with more expectation!

Shin-Yomawari is coming!!~~ (ﾟ∀ﾟ)

Two characters this time, reminding me Nippon Ichi's other recent games, like Hotaru Nikki and Rose and the old castle. The system itself is getting better and better, so I'm not having any bad hunch for this. And it's possible to go into the buildings this time, which sounds more fun, and it can be harder. Think about earlier Biohazard series, I always chose to kill all the zombies even with only a knife, as running around in a house is just hard as physics or molecular chemistry.

From the official text, I'm already expecting a dark ending (like Hotaru nikki), but, maybe it's grey (as Yomawari) or can even be pure white (Rose and old castle). I personally would like the very first type. Besides, I'm wishing the girl in Yomawari could show up as a guest (but perhaps she won't).

Last, the main theme doesn't sound as much impressive as Yomawari, it's also beautiful though., making me wanting to transcribe the main melody again.
I can't play the middle fast part in Yomawari yet, need more practice, but my focus is right now not that.. orz

Biohazard Vendetta is eventually out, with its OST by Kenji Kawai!!

The main theme, just like how it sounds in the promotion movie, is cool. I'm satisfied with it, and the next is to wait for its bluray release -- it has to be the Japan version since I want the Japanese voice.. (*´∀｀*)

As for photographing, I'm getting into the direction, I think.
At least using a point-and-shoot smart phone I wouldn't be able to shoot the moon a few days ago like this:

Taking a careful look, the Earth's shadow is also visible. I'm happy with this outcome.
The lack of a remote shutter release, on the other hand, wasn't a problem though, as it's the moon, it doesn't move so fast. A timed shutter can simply compensate this. But I do feel there's a need for a tripod. As currently I'm positioning the camera with various supports: step stool, book, coaster, litereally anything that stays steady. ^^;

Note: I'm planning to take a picture of the moon everyday, as long as the night is clear. And it'll also be a good chance to observe more in terms of the moon phase, which I don't really pay much attention. -- Although it had been a two day break due to the clouds. When I just look at it, it has turned much more of a round shape.

In this week, suddenly I began to loop Akiko's "Kagaya (? or whatever it's pronounced)". At a point, all my imaginations had gathered to the tip of my pencil.
I'm just saying maybe my next drawing won't be motivated by "kinema mosaic" but this, which is more summer fitting... °A°;;
