Genji? ape tu?
Soalan cepumas.
That question will be answered today.
but i won't be answering it straight forwardly though.
i like beating around the bush.
GENJI1134Why Genji? What's 1134?After SPM, all i did was stayed at home. i didn't have much friends to hang out with, so there i was. stuck inside the house. bored with TV, i decided to turn to the computer. this may sound weird, but for the past 17 years of my life, i didn't even know how to use Internet Explorer. Frankly, the computer to me was strictly for typing, and a few computer games like Red Alert or CS or Unreal Tournament. or Worms Armageddon. or (this could go on and on). Yes, i did used the internet before, but only after my big bro opened up the browser for me and everything. Besides, the internet was always been conquered by my sis as long as i can remember, Blog? Friendster? Facebook? Stop dreaming. i didn't even have an e-mail at that time.
Remember that there were commercials promoting Neopets on Nickelodeon? Yup. the Altador Cup thing. keep in mind that i was dying out of boredom. On that faithful day, i sat in front of the computer, clicked on the Internet Explorer shortcut, and typed in "Neopets" inside the URL browser. Heck. Can you recall the EST "textbook"? there was a section of the book that gives a guide to web browsing. and i even used that book to guide me through the internet!
i made it to the Neopets homepage. i was filling out the registration form, when i realised that i would need an email to complete the whole thing. so, like a blind mice in front of the computer, i somehow managed to get to Yahoo homepage and registered myself an email! eiiya_24. yup, my first ID. why? my pet name for my family is 'iya' while 24 was a Spongebob induced number. Episode 53 titled 'New Student Starfish'. but later on, i upgraded it to eiiya_25 because, well, you have to refer to
this.

and that is how i got myself a Neopet account! under Kagaribiku9. my first pet was an Xweetok named
Chobitsu9. why
Kagaribiku9? the name originates from 'Samurai Showdown' computer game.
Kagaribiku was mentioned in the game, as the ghostly lover of Basara, who i think sold his soul and commit mass murdernin order to be with her. i think. heck, the game was in total japanese, so i didn't understand a thing. XD
Chobitsu9? of course la from the anime Chobits. why
9? because any other number just won't suit the name.
lol~ i still haven't got to the part where
Genji1134 comes in.
should i stop here? XD
nope. i still haven't figure out anything better to do than babling.
so, i was introduced to the Wild Wild World of Internet. it was not long before i got tired of Neopets, so i tried something else. i recalled that my sis always like to show me these funny videos from Youtube. she was the one who showed me the 'Geli Mat' video! so, videos.. and then it hit me. "Eh, there was a show called 'Bleach' aired on TV3 a few months back, right?" so there i was, stuck in front of the computer. i loved Bleach so much that i had this urge of posting comments after watching every part of the episodes. thus...
i registered a Youtube account! but wait. to tell you the truth, i was kinda young at this otaku stuffs, and I had the impression that only boys can watch

anime such as Bleach and Naruto. i was trapped in my own dilemma. (no la, i'm just exaggerating!) so i opted for a more 'boy'ish, brutaland goth ID. did you ever noticed that a combination of a few letters can make up a name that is kinda brutal? like
K, G, R, B, J, and
K for instance. i dunno, it's just my opinion. somehow, the word
'Genji' came to mind. but that wasn't enough. i had to put something else to make it unique. at the same time, i was quite influenced by the anime Jigoku Shoujo, translated as Hell Girl in English, and wanted to come up something that is complementary to it. Jigoku Shounen? agaga~ that would be stupid. then, a sudden inspiration came. when Animax first started to air Jigoku Shoujo, they were using this unique four numbers to describe the anime, and also the time of when it suppose to air.
11:34 midnight. type in these four numbers in any cheap calculator, turn it upside down and it will read
'Hell'. ala, don't pretend that u had never experimented with this kinda stuff dulu..
so, at that moment, Genji1134 was born. with that ID, i could post anything about Bleach without having any concern of views like 'eh, ur a girl la, u should watch anime that is more girlish' or 'eh, what do u know about sword fighting and vengence? ur just a gurl ony ma...' or maybe 'shut up la biatch!' and i hate the latter the most. and i watched through Bleach episode 000 to 164 all on Youtube, while posting comments on the videos that i feel worth commenting about. and to my suprise, there were a lot of responses from other people to the comments that i had posted! generally, all of them agrees with me, and i'm sure, most of them are boys too. and from there, it is proven that I am as good as boys in watching anime. maybe better! (no la, what i meant to say was anime is universal, and things such as gender or age doesn't matter..)
and from Youtube, i had discovered a powerful tool that i can used all around the internet.
HTML customization!!~ i customized my own Youtube profile, which no one had ever bothered to do so. haha~
should i go on? okay!
so, after Dattebayo threaten that they will stop subbing Bleach if people keep on uploading the subbed episode on Youtube or Veoh, my career of an anime critic came to a halt. no more Bleach episode can be found on Youtube because we all love Dattebayo. for episode 165 onwards, i downloaded them for myself. where? heheee~~~ ask me then i'll tell you. i don't want the server there to be congested cuz so many otaku(s) like me are downloading stuff from there.
i had no other choice. Social Networking Sites, Here I Come!!! i opened a Friendster account, and added like 5 of my schoolmate. the name that i had chosen? of course la Genji1134! i need to further spread my Genjinism to other websites as well! XD Day by day, my network became wider and wider. lol~ this is where it gets weird. before this, i had never used my own pics as my profile picture. i just used some owh-so-kakkoi pics of male anime characters, or maybe some emo pictures. some of you might have seen my awesomely decorated profile filled with multicolored skulls and purple sparks. well, combined both of them, with the addition of the name Genji1134, my profile looks totally like it belonged to a ---------- boy.
i had this friend once. she sends me these sweet comments, and all are like emo-i'm-broken- need-you-to-fix-me-i've-fallen-for-you type of comments. she was the one who added me in the first place. she was the one who started sending me comments, so i just send mutual replies like, ya know, simple and short! but when i started replying in a girlish manner, she starts acting weird. yeah, it was scary. turns out that she was completely unaware of the first thing that is shown on my profile. "female, 17". XD
can i continue?
so, after hanging around friendster, i was absorbed with Frindster groups. I'd join Bleach FC, Naruto FC, Graduan SPM 2007 and 1990. i was kinda active in 1990, when i met Miss Deeba, Miss Solitude, Mr Kambengnator, Miss Areleyah, Miss Auni, Mr Belim, Miss Ckinoza, Miss Eppa, Mr Halogen, Mr Jufri, Mr Syairazi, Mr Topek, Miss Radenchan, Miss Wani, and those who knows me there~ haha.. they were commiting an Internet Bully crime against me, but in the end, the realised that they had messed with someone they shouldn't be messing with. Especially u Kambing Tempe!!! they had accepted me into their group called "Kuman-Kuman Manjer~" Miss Deeba la Ketua Segale Kuman while Pak Cik ShY aka Razingal memegang post sebagai ketue segale SENG~AL.. heee..
on the way, i picked up some other names. one that was seared into my mind was '
Monyet Usang'.
i had blogged before this, but i really can't remember where.. =_="
well, then i moved to Myspace, and gradually Facebook. the most recent SNW i joined is Tagged.
Today, i'm known only as Genji on friendster. i deleted my myspace account recently and are more active in blogging and Facebook (cuz i like games.) owh! Pet Society! my pet name is Agarashi Emo. i could swear i read that name somewhere around a Jigoku Shoujo forum, but i couldn't trace it back. it was the name of my third neopet; a young Grundo.
uh.. my shoulders hurt. better stop. to be continued..
