Shoot em up!
Bang Bang Bang!!
I never knew shooting a rifle could be fun and UBER TIRING!
Yap you heard that right guys, I am part of the trainees who want to join the ADMU's Rifle and Pistol Varsity team. Well I'm not in the team, but I'm aspiring to be. I really don't know why I joined though, maybe because it's the thrill of first holding a rifle, shooting your first target, or maybe just to escape PE and NSTP (not that I don't like both, but it's sort of a free cut to those na! hehee)
So yesterday was our first training/seminar day! As usual Chair and I were late because of me, I forgot why but we were one of the last ones. Haha! So Coach explained to us the basics:handling, parts, and shooting. I was lucky coz I was sort of inserted in the first batch of people who were the first ones to shoot and Coach personally taught me! My first try sitting was this:
Bulls eye!
My first shot was the far one at the lower right and all the rest of my 6 shots were straight in the middle! 6 Bulls eye! I thought it was beginner's luck! haha =)
Here's my second one, 4 shots, I have no idea why it looked like this:
4 shots?? WEH??
I don't exactly like it but I hope I can improve!! We were all standing at this point and were at proper stance. It's quite painful if your'e not a "stretchy" (i am not) since you gotta twist your torso and hold it at a very still position. Your left hand was technically in pain from carrying the rifle properly. I swear, you just don't "hold" a rifle, you gotta know how.
I'll be training up to October and try outs will be next semester! I'll be posting more of my targets in the future! hehee
Sighs.. I was just reminded a while ago of my paternal family's history of impatience and short-temperedness. My dad gets quite easily angry now and he was particularly angry at the computer because it couldn't connect to the internet. Without waiting for our help when we get home (anyway we got home late, around 8pm), my dad suddenly broke into a fury and PUNCHED our dear old desktop and of course... um... it..doesn't..wanna start now... Crap. It's a good thing and a bad thing. We've been meaning to change this old desktop computer because it's like 5-6 years old already and that's old for computers today. And man, there were really a lot of problems so I'm not sad to see it die. And I'm very glad that we've already transferred all our files to our external 1 terabyte hardrive a while back. Nothing was lost, thankfully. Hopefully we'll be getting a new one.
I'm kinda sleepy.. must sleep..
Updates when I update! hehe =)

HISTORY:
I decided I'd make a history for my site so that you'd all know the whys and the hows. I will elaborate further when I have my REAL site one day. So when did this "addiction" start? Well it was many years ago (maybe not THAT many, about 2-3 years ago) when my keypal Kelli (HI KELLI!) told me to check out this thing. It turned out to be a xanga blog and I was intrigued but I wasn't interested in making one. After a year though, exactly on October 29, 2004, I came across Kelli's blog again and had a sudden itch to try it out. I signed up in xanga and wrote my very first entry. My URL was http://xanga.com/jynxypanda and it's still alive! Check it out if you want, I've transformed it into a photoblog of some sort. I started out with this PLAIN red and black template and of course, I eventually got bored with it. I then searched for skins both in createblog and blogskins. I was happy with xanga but then I saw Steph's new blog in blogger. I was amazed at her skills already in making layouts and HTML so I asked tips from her and then I started my blogger account. This was the time I started getting interested in HTML. Steph also referred to me Lissaexplains.com for tutorials and I researched on my own by reading this gigantic HTML manual at our house. I learned the basics and soon I was editing layouts. I wasn't much of a layout changer so Thief's Stolen Collections survived with only 2 premade layouts. Soon, I was getting BORED with premade layouts. I decided to practice my photoshop skills and make my own like Steph. At first, my layout was supposed to be a panda under cherry blossoms on a starry night EXCEPT the background image I used was copyrighted to kagaya.com only hence I wasn't able to use it. It was a beautiful layout for me though because I loved the violet colors and the panda. It took me a VERY LONG time to finish it but all my efforts proved to be in vain. The spark of making a layout vanished and was just recently revived. I was determined to make one and Winnie the Pooh came to my mind. Why Winnie the Pooh? I have no idea. Maybe it was because of him being a bear but anyways, Winnie the Pooh sounded good and voila!
PAST LAYOUTS
POOH'S PARADISE V.1
Born on: June 26, 2005
Well this was my very 1st layout so pardon for the childish image. It took me a very long time to think of what image to use. Winnie the Pooh just suddenly came to my mind and before I knew it, my hands were working on their own and this is the result! It lasted me for 5 months and I'm happy. =)
STARING UNDER THE SKY
Born on: Dec. 27, 2005
This is my 2nd layout featuring a vectorized (my first vector! Not too good..) bird (i'm not sure the species) on a branch staring under the velvet (violet) sky. When I was thinking of a new layout, I wanted it to have a touch of Christmas but not in the commercial way (gifts, lights etc). I wanted to show the true meaning of Christmas and I also wanted a layout that would last me for months (I'm a lazy bum.. hehe). Inspiration struck when our English teacher asked us to make a Korean Sijo (in English that is) and what i wrote about was a bird anticipating the birth of Christ. Though Christmas has gone, I still wish the feeling of Christmas will continue the whole year. This lasted me for a month (oMG 1 month lang?) but I may use it again. I really liked it! hehe

This layout was a gift from my adorable online sister,
Ate Kitty! Isn't it beautiful? I was really surprised when she gave me this because I didn't know that anyone would go so much trouble for giving me a gift.. wahhz.. Love ya ate! :heart
