P.S: Doing late night blog posts is not fun. I forget what I’m writing about too easily.
Yes, I’m around but haven’t had time to post/forgot to. I have new games and have been playing Final Fantasy 11 for some reason. Playing it with a controller is awesome.
I haven’t quit Mabinogi yet. But I’m working on getting Rank1 critical hit. I’ll post either Saturday or next week. I have been busy recovering from getting all four of my wisdom teeth removed and went upstate for Christmas.
I’m still alive and EM-Zen is progressing really slowly but I haven’t dropped it.
Ending this post now so until next time…

Hello to everyone who still checks out this site.
Its been a while since I have updated… and yes once again I apologize for that.
So I will try to do a massive update with whats been going on in my life. So lets get started!
-/-\-
October:
Well after my birthday (And getting rank 1 Windmill) I worked and worked and worked some more. And played Mabinogi of course. My free time seems a bit endless sometimes. I also bought Borderlands on Steam. Quite a fun game though Multiplayer is sort of a pain to do with friends.
November:
I worked even more (Of course) and gamed some more (I might have a problem). And spend Thanksgiving alone after working that day from 8 in the morning until 1pm. My family had went out of town that day. But my mom was kind enough to make Thanksgiving food for me before she left (And it was tasty). I actually during November managed to be shocked by my email.
Turns out that Nintendo decided to release all 10 parts of Electroplankton as DSi Ware… but I’ll explain more about that later. I also during this month got Phantasy Star Zero (The copy my friend promised me for my birthday). I also picked up the following:
Nintendo DS Titles:
And I also splurged a little on Steam and bought the following:
So I have a lot of stuff to keep me company when I’m bored…hehe. Anyway, this concludes what has been happening in my life at least with October and November.
So now its time to talk about what I REALLY wanted to get to: EM-Zen.
Since Nintendo decided to release Electroplankton in 10 separate parts I picked them up as soon as I could and I love that they did this so much. Now I don’t have to resort to hardware based ROM emulation just to get what I need. So, I will be starting up on EM-Zen again full steam ahead a little later this month. And I have thought of a nice format for EM-Zen that I think will work out quite well.
The first half shall be pure 8-bit, the second half will be pure Electroplankton based tracks…and near the end the finale will be 8-bit and Electroplankton together. Though I might tie in a random story with it so there is more depth to it. Not entirely sure but we shall see as I go along.
I also have been asking a friend of mine (Guitartheist) for help and bouncing stuff off of him (Ideas mostly). He is the guy who helped me create the collab track called “Arpy the Walrus”. (If you haven’t heard that yet. I shall link you to the post regarding that….it is over here.
Anyway I need to wrap up this blog post and get out my house today. Its my day off and I should probably go enjoy it. So as always to everyone who reads this blog.

Yes! I have finally done it!
I have reached rank 1 windmill in Mabinogi. It took a lot of effort, but its been done.
I know that a lot of people could care less about it since its just windmill and that makes me nothing but a cookie cutter “miller”. But it was a struggle and I only got it so I could have a nice back up for when things got too hairy in combat situations. Anyway… screen shot time:

Rank 1 obtainined.

I would also like to point out at this time that I got Rank 1 Windmill a day before my birthday (October 2nd) so yay me….
I would also like to point out that my birthday has already passed (October 3rd) and I am now 20 years old… and I still play Mabinogi… awesome. Though if I enjoy it I might as well play.
And I got some awesome presents for my birthday too. I got the following:
So yeah..thats about it for now. I’m done with this post. And once again if anyone who looks at this blog and happens to notice my character name while on the Mari server. Don’t hesitate to say hello. I’m done for now, later.

Well its finally happened. I finally finished something however not on my own…
I had decided to visit my friend in August and show him Famitracker. He was instantly hooked and that day we started on a collaboration. It was rough but we both enjoyed making it and the end result. However, when I let a couple people listen to it they both said that the drums were a bit too rough.
And my friend Kizul even mentioned some stuff to me to make it sound softer and so I present to you…the track called “Arpy the Walrus”! Enjoy

Okay… again life took over so I have been really inactive but this blog is still here…
And the other day I finally got rid of Rank 3 Windmill in Mabinogi. Here is a picture to show it.
I can't believe I did it.
And I already have 1020 out of the 2000 of the rank 2 boss kill requirement done. So I’m happy with that.
The sad thing however is that Nexon decided to have a nine hour + 3 hour extension maintenance. So its been annoying… I want to finish the boss kills before I have work tomorrow. So we shall see… I’m out for now… for all people from the nexon forum and such who see this blog.

Well… after saying that I would post stuff about Mabinogi (My main and favorite MMORPG) somewhere… I decided that I would finally do it. So.. without further ado… Mabinogi post number 1!
First of all if you didn’t know. I have a YouTube account. And it just happens to littered with Gameplay videos… most of them related to mabi. I’m mostly happy about my latest two since they finally include an online friend of mine. You can look at the one I like the most here:

Just to let anyone who watches my videos know, I don’t ever use video editing software. I just play music in the background with Winamp… And the song thats playing in the video is “But Underneath All That” by Sgx. You can check out his site and awesome FREE music here
I was going to write more but I need to get back to something else for a bit. So I’ll probably post tomorrow if I have time.. which I should so to everyone who reads my stuff…

As the title suggests.. I’m deeply sorry. I have been busy within the past month or two…
I got a job… and I have been getting money slowly… but getting money none the less. This job made me put off what I wanted to do the most though. And I feel slightly tortured by it.. despite it being something that I need to do…
EM-Zen is hereby postponed indefinitely… until I find the will to work on it. As well as Project Eternal… I haven’t had time to update…and my will to do it has faded as I have lost my sense of creativity… I’m not even happy with the art that I have done recently… My emotions are too mixed up as it is right now…and so I bow out of what I have done. To make it for what I could have done….
I’ll try to continue.. but for now. Its not the time… and I apologize for that…
I still play Mabinogi and I intend to post stuff about that. But life took over… and I hate myself for getting so stuck…
And I just noticed that I have a little over 300 hits… thats great… at least someone took the time to read my stuff. I’m done here for now… and once again. I apologize…

My friend had the cable I needed all along so now I can start my project a full speed. After I finish track 00 and 01 I will release it to the masses for free. And I will add more as I go along until I see that its complete. Also I might have a side project for remixes if anything that I make is any good.
I’m gone for now. So peace and…
