Slow Rolling Grounder...

CMC Strike Fighters lost today 15-6. The score seamed worse than it was. They were hitting into our gaps (ie: a slow rolling grounder through Jeno's legs) and we committed more errors than they did (ie: a slow rolling grounder through Jeno's legs). LOL
Sorry Jeno. It was too funny not to mention :)

Dinner today -> Steak and Veggies... Round 2. FIGHT! Tiger Uppercut!
Using my +2 Fry Pan of Searing, I seared the outside of the steak abit more than I wanted, because Ben called me while I was cooking. Due to it's magical properties, the insides were not over cooked, but still the way I like it: bloody rare.
Veggies were cooked in the same pan as the steak, but with a blob of garlic butter today.

"Heavy Rotation"

Dinner today -> Steak and Veggies.
I wanted to make some rice too, but I didn't get home til 8:30pm. Picked up a Caramilk Bar. No key inside... :(

Useless Idol News:
A little while ago, I watched AKB48's video for their next single: "Heavy Rotation". OMG!!! It's pretty much 100% fan service!
OMG Yuko!!! And Kasai's kiss on Yukirin was too cute!
I have no other words... just OMG!

You can watch it here, but I warn you... lots of crazy swimsuit/lingerie shots, some cute scenes, and afew almost dirty scenes. Probably NSFW, and I won't be posting the video... maybe.
I think the video is suppose to be a fantasy representation of what fans think/want the idol world to be like? I could be wrong (likely wrong).
I don't think "Heavy Rotation" is that great of a song too. No where near as good as "Iiwake Maybe"(last years election song) . Too bad too, since Yuko is in the center position for the 1st time.
I like the B-Side song "Lucky Seven" more, and the video is of them cosplaying as pirates :)

Puccho

Went to T&T with Ben and Susanna for dinner food stuff. This week T&T is celebrating a "Japan Festival". We picked up a bunch of Japanese foods and snacks, including some Japanese Baumkuchen Cake! It's a really tasty multiple-ringed cake. Really good stuff. I saw this cake being made in a department store bakery in Osaka. The line to get the cake was long and snaked out the door!


^ Baumkuchen Cake.
Does anyone know what the difference between the orange and blue packs are?

Useless Idol News:
I introduced Steve to a new candy from Japan last week: "Puccho". It's available at T&T. We like it alot too. It's a chewy fruit flavoured candy with coloured gummy fruit dots in it.


^ Puccho Candy.

But I found out today that Puccho is now officially promoted by AKB48! Is this new candy campaign enough to push Steve into the world of AKB48? The official website is here. It's got videos, TV commercials, and downloadable wallpapers.


^ Videos and Wallpapers.

Update:
All videos in 1 video below. It's kind of funny that the girls turn into candies.

Not much going on today. Ate some Astroboy cookies, but I mainly got the cookies for the can :) But the cookies were good too.


^ Astroboy Cookies and Can.

Saturday:
Ben and I went to Gordon's for about 10hrs of gaming. We mostly played Magic, but we also played some Ticket to Ride, Blokus, and Gemlock.


^ 3 Player Gemlock.

Sunday:
Downloaded a new game for my iPhone called: Dungeon Hunter. It's very similar to Diablo. It's eating up most of my day.

Dinner today -> Ramen Noodles.
Added a fried egg and sliced some fish paste swirls :)


^ Ramen Noodles.

AKB48 Cards!

Useless Idol News:
I got another package in the mail today from Japan. I got my AKB48 Cards!
I special ordered them through J-List (NSFW). They were released last Friday and I got them in less than a week.


^ 4 AKB48 Card Sets.
I got Takahashi Minami, Kashiwagi Yuki, Kasai Tomomi, and of course Oshima Yuko :)
There are 4 rare cards per box, but I only got 2 of the rarer rare cards: Clear Yukirin and Clear Yuko. I was really hoping for an autograph card. Oh well. I'm still satisfied with the cards.

Happy Birthday Anita!!!

Happy (Belated) Birthday Anita!!!

Sorry, I'm late about it :)

Box from Japan.

CMC Strike Fighters take a loss today. We lost 19-11, against the 2nd last place team. We gave up 10 runs in the 1st inning, and that cost us. A freak accident took out our pitcher too.
Fongpay's Highlight of the Night: Home Plate was a dis-assembled Tim Bits Box.

^ Home Plate.... Mmmm Donuts...

Useless Japan News:
