being O.C.

here we go... one stop wiki-ternative. hehehe!
okay... first up...

Latios & Latias







these 2 are the guardians of the water city of Altomare (which literally means "high sea" or "high tide" in Italian)














loosely translated from Ratiosu & Ratiasu, they are the only 2 legendary pokemon with defined genders... Latios' demise marks the first actual death of ANY pokemon in the whole North American Franchise...



*************************
Entei




hahaha! in your face jeff! heehee!





Entei is one of 3 Legendary Beasts, and as such, embodies an aspect of nature... in this case, the passion of magma and the ferocity of volcanoes...




*************************
Hatake, Kakashi


apparently, he has never shown his face... EVER! be it in the anime or the manga...


























and as discussed, those that can be found online are meticulously made fakes...

this one is from the artbook from Galbadia... nice, yes?!




*************************
Angels & Airwaves













aside from the very catchy band name, their tunes are also quite addictive...
AVA (their abbreviated name with a supposed inverted A in the middle) is an alternative rock supergroup featuring Tom DeLonge (Blink 182 lead vocals & lead guitar), David Kennedy (former Box Car Racer guitarist), Atom Willard (former bassist of The Distillers), and Ryan Sinn (The Offspring drummer)...

the video of their debut single, The Adventure, caught me by surprise because i never expected that Blink 182 would ever come up with a non-juvenile video that did not require individuals with hypothyroidism...

and a song that i'd actually like! but that's just me. hehe!




*************************
Zac Efron






star of Disney Channel's T.V. movie High School Musical... actor-slash-musician...









a definite eye candy...





























*************************
Marahute


a "larger than life" , rare, and beautiful golden eagle from the Disney animated film The Rescuers Down Under (1990)...













just add a couple'a more limbs, turn talon into paws, and presto! that's pretty much how Daitona'd look like... and oh! a lion's tail, of course...




*************************
Don Bluth's Thumbelina


Don Bluth was one of Disney's chief animators... with works, including: An American Tail, Land Before Time, All Dogs Go To Heaven, Anastasia, and of course Thumbelina...


released in 1994, Don Bluth's Thumbelina was distributed by Warner Brothers and is one of Bluth's subsequent works...
as of this time, i am unsure whether the name of the characters in this feature are from Hans Christian Andersen's original Thumbelina fairy tale as well...


particularly, Thumbelina's love interest, Cornelius, prince of the Fairies...


*************************
Teddy Geiger









american singer and songwriter... first seen in international media as a finalist in VH1's "In Search Of The Partridge Family"... with 2 albums released over the last couple'a years: Step Ladder EP (2005) and Underage Thinking (2006)...











the music video for his debut single (which i saw the other night and instantly loved), For You I Will (Confidence), features Laguna Beach's Kristin Cavallari...



"but tonight i'm not afraid to tell you how i feel about you...
i'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence i have

and cannonball into the water...

i'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence i have...

for you, i will
for you...
i will"

~ for you i will (confidence)



"'cause love is a marathon
that's why you get tired so fast of everyone...
slow down and pace yourself,
because when it's good,
it's a long, long open road..."

~ love is a marathon



"so the pencils change to pens,
i just wanna hang out with my friends.
we can give it our all...

time after time,
but it just keeps on getting harder
and getting harder to the touch.

i need the hot and silver sun...
i wanna just let go
with someone to help me survive...

don't you want it?
i've never seen anyone who wants it this bad...

you said games were much more fun,

i'd rather play than get things done
but look where we are now,

well, look where we are now...

you said life happens too fast,
i'd rather play than make it last

but look where we are now, look where we are now."

~ look where we are now




*************************
Storm

as if you haven't heard me yapping about this... so i'll just put it in writing. i just think that Janet Jackson would'a made a more visually resembling Storm... often, when i make this remark, people would point out Halle Berry's thespian skills (with her Academy Award backing her up) in contrast with miss Jackson's...

there're workshops y'know!



(just to make my point... pardon the lousy editing...)
just that... i have always seen Ororo as regal... statuesque... sophisticated. she was worshipped as the "goddess of life" in Kenya's tribes after all.



in the What If comicbooks issue #79, the Alternate Marvel Universe decided to postulate, What If Storm Had The Power Of Phoenix? up until two days ago, i had always thought that this was an official Marvel storyline... heehee!



it would'a been really cool though... but the thing is, as a high school student, i had come across this exact issue in a bookstore and had ever since then acknowledged the fact that Storm will become Phoenix's vessel...
anyways...

moving on with life... heehee!
