OMG!
Goodness me. I'm addicted to Neopets yet again. Maybe it's the Neopoints, or maybe not. Now that I have reached the Ultimate reaches mark, money works for me. Just like real life. In this state, I feel that a hundred thousand Neopoints is little. And for the first time, I bought something for my pets! Yes, I bought a laboratory map. Purchased it for 525 thousand Neopoints. But it seems that I'm still bad at things concerning with luck. My pet lost 3 levels in the first 2 days! Mishap. It surely is.

Today, I met with my tutor on programming. It was quite fun. He spent three hours teaching me the visual basics in programming. 20 minutes was the time it took me to make my very first calculator. I still remember the code I wrote for "Add" It was " TextResult.Text = Val(Text1.Text) + Val(Text2.Text)."
That's all for now. Back to playing Neopets!

Tonkatsu

Hello fellow Japanophiles! In case you still don't know what it is,...Tonkatsu is a breaded pork(Ton in Japanese) sirloin dish. Most people find it very delicious because the fact that it is akin to the normal Western breaded pork. The tiny difference is that there is sauce accompanied with the dish. Right! It's called Tonkatsu sauce, it also tastes like barbeque sauce. If you haven't tasted it yet, why not drop by a Japanese restaurant nearest you or...let's make one at home!
Ingredients: slices of pork sirloin(depends on what you can consume). with a width of 1 inch.
1 beaten egg(on every 4 slices of pork)
2 cups bread crumbs(on every 4 slices of prok)
1 cup flour(on every 4 slices of pork)
Canola or Sunflower oil for deep frying.
lemon is optional
Hot yellow mustard(optional)
Sauce:
Worcestershire would be fine.

Most Pokefans don't even now him, he's the creator of our most beloved Pocket Monsters. Satoshi is more known as Dr. Bug among peers. The idea of Pokemon came to his mind when his homeland has already been paved over by apartments, he wanted modern children to experience catching creatures like he did when he was a kid. You might not believe it, but, while Mr. Tajiri was studying, he spent almost all his time in playing arcade games, such as "Space Invaders"(a shooting game), which led him to having the arcade machine in his own house. In the early 1980's he and Mr. Sugimori established a game magazine under the liscense name of Game Freak. Satoshi was then introduced to GameBoy, his mind most likely overflowed with imagination with Pokemon. He spent 6 years working on Pokemon for Nintendo. In honor of the creator, Ash Ketchum is named after him. Pokemon then caught the plaudit of viewers. That's how Pokemon came to be.
Mr. Tajiri was then diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome.

Pokemon Episode 4
First Aired on September 11, 1998
In the Viridian forest, Ash Ketchum and Misty were catching new Pokemon. In this process, Caterpie evolved into Metapod. As Misty is wandering in the forest, a poketrainer suddenly jumped out of the blue, "Hiiiiiiyyya (as he slashes a sword at her) hello there shreaking maiden are you the trainer from Pallet?" "No.", Misty replied. "Alas my search continues, I advise you to refrain from sreaking unless your goal is to attract a hourd of Beedrill", The Samurai replied back. As Ash was about to catch Weedle, the samurai aimlessly slashed his sword infront of Ash's face and asks, "Are you the trainer from Pallet?". "Yes I am", Ash quickly replied. Their Pokébattle between Pinsir and Pidgeotto begins, Ash then quickly withdrew Pidgeotto and Ash called for Metapod. Metapod used harden as soon as Ash said it, and Metapod escaped the wrath of Pinsir's attack, Pinsir's claw horns suddenly broke, and the Samurai recalls him back to the Pokéball and called out Metapod. Just when it seems a winner will never emege, came a swarm of Beedrills causing the battle into a halt. Ash calls his Metapod back to the Pokeball but he missed all the time. In futile hope of getting back his Metapod, Ash and company ran for their lives and landed on the Samurai's cabin. Worried Ash came out of the cabin and searched for his lost Pokemon. He then came to a tree were an army of Kakunas are waiting to evolve into Beedrills. The superior hearing ability of the Beedrill overhears Ash. Ash then haphazardly ran across the swarm of Beedrills and took his Metapod. Ash then suddenly stumbled on a rock and dropped Metapod. His love for his Metapod triggered it's evolution into Butterfree. Butterfree then uses sleepowder to make the angry swarm of Beedrills sleep.
Pokemon introduced in the episode:
Pinsir, Butterfree, Beedrill, Kakuna and Weedle.
PokeTrivia:
Meowth's favorite game is "Scratch and Sniffle".

Update: Japanese lessons on Saturday.
For 1,600 years its message lay hidden. When the bound papyrus pages of this lost gospel finally reached scholars who could unlock its meaning, they were astounded. Here was a gospel told from the perspective of Judas Iscariot, history's ultimate traitor. And far from being a villain, the Judas that emerges in its pages is a hero. This volume is the first publication of the remarkable gospel since it was condemned as heresy by early church leaders. The Gospel of Judas has been translated from its original Coptic into clear prose and is accompanied by commentary that explains its fascinating history in the context of the early church, offering a whole new way of understanding the message of Jesus Christ. Hardcover. 5 1/4'' x 8''. 192 pages

The most controversial gospel to date. I know this sounds ridiculous, a matter of fact it is so absurd. How could Judas have a gospel that was made after his death? The gospel of Judas is a gnostic gospel - Gnostics believe mysticism, just like the jew from the show "Bee Season", I don't know if you've watched it already. They believe in two gods, a good one and a bad one. The good one doesn't actually do anyhing, while the bad one is the one taking control of everything. Despite the fact that it is a gnostic gospel, many are still baffled on how it came to be.
One verse in the Bible that proves that the Gospel of Judas is bogus:
(John 6:70) "Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?"
There you go, you could now throw(tell) this verse to people who tells you that the Gospel of Judas is true, which is totally not.
