The Cute Wall (Volume Four)

Now, the moment of truth is time because it's now time to do...THE CUTE WALL!

All right, now while my idiot pal isn't here to mess things up while I'm featuring some new batch of characters waiting to have their cuteness evaluated, let's feature our first cute character for this segment!

Tunip the Vegimal

You know this fella, don't you guys? That's Tunip the Vegimal from OCTONAUTS. Now I know Tunip, like the other Vegimals, had a very little screen presence in the show but just look at Tunip, he's so cute for a fish-vegetable hybrid kind of thingies but still, you get the idea. So, what do you think, guys? How cute is Tunip?

(audience murmuring)

Okay, for me, I guess I would put Tunip in the CUTE spot and he'll be sitting next to Mog and Catbug, is that okay with you Tunip? (Imitating Tunip)

(audience laughing)

So, that's it for Tunip, who's next?!

Doc McStuffins

(cheers and applause)

Yes, I know, it's the one and only toy doctor we love from Disney Junior, it's the one and only Doc McStuffins! Most kids love Doc McStuffins because she's by no means one of the cutest characters in the world of preschool shows and yes, songs like "Time for your Check-Up" and "I Feel Better" from the show, they're all stuck in my head right now and I can't get rid of these as long as babies kept tuning in on this show. (sigh)

(audience laughing)

But in my mind, she looks somewhat geeky in appearance and just look at her big eyes, she's just way too cute and too nerdy for words and I reckon that she will be in the NAKAKAGIGIL spot...which I'm putting her on it right now.

(audience laughing)

That's right! My blanket tells that she's so NAKAKAGIGIL and she fits well with Pokemon XY's Chespin because they look so geeky! Anyway, let's feature the next one

Sorry, I'm late. I got stucked in the traffic jam for hours and I took public transport instead.

Yeah. You're here while I was going to show the next character on this segment.

Which is...Minccino from Pokemon Black and White.

(audience laughing)

Minccino

How did you know that?

You're holding one right now. Now, listen. Don't you dare put Minccino in the CUTE spot because...

Because what?

I don't know. I never thought I got this far...

You're telling me Minccino's not cute because it's a Normal-type Pokemon. Nope.

That's Bianca's Minccino!

Yes. That is Bianca's Minccino from the TV show and do you know which spot I'll be putting Minccino? Oh wait! Before you're going to do the unthinkable, I have another Minccino for you to deal with.

What's that? Two Minccinos? What are you going to do? Evolve one into Cinccino? Ha! I was expecting to see that coming!

Nope. Because...Minccino, use TICKLE!

Wha....(laughing uncontrollably)...Ahh!!! Stop!!! (laughing hard) That tickles! Cut it out! (laughing uncontrollably)

(audience laughing)

Make it stop!!! Please!!! (laughing uncontrollably)

Right, with him getting tickled by Minccino. I'm free to put Minccino to the CUTE spot and I got the chance to put Mabel Pines back to the NAKAKAGIGIL spot! Woo-hoo! Now, where was I? Oh yeah!

Piplup

Check this out! That's Piplup from Pokemon Diamond and Pearl! For a starting Diamond Version or Pearl Version user, Piplup's one of the Sinnoh starters aside from Turtwig and Chimchar. In the TV show, this Piplup is Dawn's personal Pokemon. She and Piplup are always the best of mates and we love Piplup's cute looks for a penguin. I know, Piplup's the penguin Pokemon and I used to have a plush toy of Piplup. Boy, where did the years go... I kinda missed having a Piplup plush. (sniff) That Piplup plush looks innocent and I had this little critter before I gave it away to someone. Right now, I've moved on and I have a Chespin now so where should I put Piplup? Everyone?

(audience murmuring)

All right. If you say so. It's a CUTE for Piplup! Don't worry. Most Dawn cosplayers in times of conventions will always have a Piplup plush by their sides if they still make one.

Sofia

I'm very sure you know this cute character, right? That's Sofia the First! Of course, we all love Sofia because...well, there's no other word for it...because she's cute! Just look at her? Isn't she the cutest princess in all of the wonderful world of Disney? My security blanket thinks she's so NAKAKAGIGIL probably because of the way she moves while she's wearing her trademark gown.

(audience laughing)

So, what do you think of Sofia? For me, because of her all-round cuteness, I'd decided to put her in the NAKAKAGIGIL spot! Hooray!

(audience laughing, then applause)

Sylveon

Whoa! Looks like we have one of the Eevee friends joining our segment. This I believe it's...a...who's that Pokemon? Sylveon? Oh! Okay! It's Sylveon! The Intertwining Pokemon and one of the evolved forms of Eevee. According to the Kalos PokeDex, Sylveon wraps its ribbonlike feelers around the arm of its beloved Trainer and walks with him or her. Believe it or not, we do have a plush toy of this Pokemon and my little sis enjoys it for a while...Oh, it's you again...

Phew. Managed to grab hold of Minccino's tail and chopped it.

You what?!

(audience laughing)

Some Pokemon Centers in Japan has Minccino's tail for sale. Managed to grab one to stop that little vermin from tickling me 'till I wet my pants. Clever plan, though. Wait...is that Sylveon?! One of the Fairy-type Pokemons?!

Uh-huh. And I was decide where should I put Sylveon right before you showed up grabbing Minccino's tail.

(audience laughing)

So, uh, your take? I believe I'll put this on CUTE so you don't want to make a move to get rid of it and place it to SERIOUSLY NOT CUTE.

Touche...

Queen Delightful

How about this then little guy. That is Queen Delightful from The 7D. She's the Queen of Jollywood and by no means the ditziest since Black and White's Bianca.

(audience laughing)

Don't even compare Queen D to Bianca even though they both have blond hair!

Besides. When she open her mouth wide enough to see her tonsils, what does that remind you of?

Uh...

It's like Stonehenge and Excalibur combined and save the Kame-Kame Wave from Dragon Ball for later.

Stonehenge? Excalibur? Are those doomsday weapons from the Ace Combat games?

Exactly! And I have no idea what's going on with that Queen Delightful character but she's way NOT CUTE to meet her standards...

Hey! I'm in charge of this segment and I say she's NAKAKAGIGIL!

F1 2014: Japanese GP

Following Lewis Hamilton's win at the rainy Japanese GP in Suzuka Circuit, looks like the whole world is on the focus of Marussia's Jules Bianchi as he was hospitalized after a crash with a recovery vehicle which was removing the damaged Sauber F1 car that Adrian Sutil drove during the race. Right now, Bianchi's in critical condition and we really don't know when will he recover from such a catastrophe.

Anyway, with Mercedes' Hamilton in the lead and he's 10 points ahead of his teammate Nico Rosberg and 73 points ahead of Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo.

The next race will be held in Sochi, Russia, on the 12th of October for the inaugural F1 Russian GP.

We can't really believe we saw it coming and we really had fun seeing these two on national TV!

Forza Horizon 2: Meet the starters!

A few days ago, I finally picked my own copy on the XBOX One version of Forza Horizon 2 and I can't wait to see what it's like to enjoy the Southern European landscape by driving coast to coast with over two hundred of the world's scorching hot rides. As I began my Southern European journey on FH2, I have a choice of three starter cars to choose from, each with their own distinctive tastes and challenges await in each.

These are the starters:

 - 2011 BMW Z4 sDrive35is - The second-generation of BMW's open-top roadster offers a well-balanced breed of speed and mobility.



- 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS Coupe - This classic muscle car from Chevrolet offers straight-line performance.



- 1998 Toyota Supra - One of Japan's most iconic sportscars from that decade and one of the most iconic tuners of all time even post-discontinuation.



With three starters to choose from as they began their quest for fame at Southern Europe, it's very difficult to decide which is which but you know what, it's not quite difficult to decide because some would go for the Z4 because it's a well-balanced car, others for the Camaro because of its power, and some would want to go with the Supra because it's a popular tuner for many and they can spend their cash tweaking on its performance figures.

As for me, which of these three did I choose?



I chose the Z4 because, well don't get me wrong, but this car is well suited for this landscape and since I was starting with the Z4, I can't help but trying out this German roadster for a joyride.



Be it rain or shine, the Z4 never fails to impress me and since this is FH2, I want my car to be well suited for this occasion and for that, it's time for this car to get the Horizon makeover courtesy of extensive use of the game's design creator!



Voila! My Z4 is wearing its tradition Bimmer colors and notice those M-inspired stripes I made. It's done to give out the true BMW joy from within. I've even added some of my handmade Horizon Festival racing numbers on my car and I gave it an 89 because this is the E89 model.

After extensive makeovers, I sent my Z4 to take part in the first ever championship suitable for this car somewhere in the Castelletto area of Italy.

 

Having completed my first championship, looks like I'm now primed and ready for my Southern European journey on Forza Horizon 2.

Let's Do The News! (October 5, 2014)

Ten things we learned this week...

- Was Top Gear attacked by the Falklands vets? The cast and crew of the BBC hit TV series had escaped from Argentina when the car in question Jeremy Clarkson used has a plate number in reference to the Falkland War in 1982. The Falklands War veterans got so angry, they're going to take them down so that's why, the whole Top Gear team have escaped.

- Veteran comedienne Tia Pusit died on the 2nd of October, 2014, at the age of 66 years old. That was confirmed by her buddy Inday Garutay. Tia Pusit, known by her real name Myrna Villanueva, was the youngest sibling of veteran comedienne Nova Villa and her acting career began in the 80's. Her last appearance was in the TV5 comedy series Confessions of a Torpe, which stars Ogie Alcasid, Alice Dixson, and Gelli de Belen.

- If there's something strange in the neighborhood, who you gonna call? PETER GRIFFIN! Yes, and he needs you for some ghostbusting this Halloween as Family Guy Quest For Stuff features a Halloween update where a special time-limited event is currently underway and you can stand a chance to win Halloween items for your Quahog and special costumes for your favorite characters. Characters who died in the TV show are haunting your way and get a chance to win them before the time-limited event is over!

- The PS3-exclusive Free-To-Play flight shooting game Ace Combat Infinity released their Operation Bunker Shot update and this is going to be the longest mission in the campaign mode you'd ever experience. Make sure your aircraft's fully prepared as you take on ground, naval, and aerial forces on the Adriatic Sea. Also, there's a new Online Co-Op mission called Moscow Battle where you and your pals must save Moscow from oncoming threats!

- GRRR!!! It's Mega Rayquaza! The upcoming Pocket Monsters Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire 3DS games will feature Rayquaza's mega evolution! Think you're up for the challenge? Be prepared as Mega Rayquaza's fully armed with the Delta Stream ability which prevents weather changes during battles and Mega Rayquaza's most powerful move, the Dragon Ascent!

Rayquaza Mega Evolution

- An end of an era: Sebastian Vettel will leave Red Bull Racing at the end of the F1 2014 season.

- The South Korean government placed 40 orders on the F35 Lightning II aircrafts and develop their own as they're improving their firepower against threats from North Korea.

- Lea Salonga and the entire original cast members of the Miss Saigon musical returned to the West End Stage last month to perform in the 25th anniversary gala. They've been joined by the current cast which includes actress and singer Rachelle Ann Go. 

- A Pinay OFW posted a rather bizarre post on Facebook, saying that she wants to get pregnant with any male who can do it and she's willing to reward someone 20,000 Philippine Pesos. That Pinay OFW was revealed as Rosemarie Catidral and goes under her alias of Shaine Marie Gamboa. She said that she wants to get pregnant once she returned to the Philippines and she's looking for a man who can take on that bizarre challenge.

- Actress Coleen Garcia broke her silence about her alleged scandal on September 27, saying that it was a hoax and the post contains a virus if someone clicked on it when she was interviewed on The Buzz. That fake viral news of a clip with Coleen and her ex appeared on the same time as IT'S SHOWTIME presenter Billy Crawford detained after brawling with authorities because of alcohol abuse, while some say it was the cause that Billy has gone haywire.

TTFN!!!

Doctor Who S08E07

Doctor Who S08E07

An infestation of spider-like creatures, the moon hatched a big monster, a new moon was laid, and some emotional drama boils at the end of this episode, those are some of the things we witnessed during this week's episode of Doctor Who titled "Kill The Moon". It's a sad for us to see Clara angry to The Doctor after that...ungrateful decisions occurred. Looks like our Time Lord hero will be going solo for next week's episode for now...

As for the part where Clara's student, Courtney, posting pics of The Doctor on Tumblr, yeah, that's what we do real time because we love posting pics of him on Tumblr. He he he...

Anyway, here's the BTS from this week's episode:

Meeting Peppa Pig at Westfield Southcenter

Recently, we went to Westfield Southcenter for a meet-and-greet with Peppa Pig. Don't judge me on this because our baby boy, Irvine, is a huge fan of Peppa Pig. He watched too much videos of too much Peppa Pig toys featured. Perhaps no wonder I got sucked into the Peppa Pig mania. That British TV show never fails to impress after 10 years.

It was a once-in-a-lifetime moment for the Washington families to have their kids meet and greet Peppa and because Peppa's very popular with the little tykes, the line's jam-packed and they can't wait to have their pics taken.

While they were busy, there are some coloring papers for kids to colorize Peppa. Too bad they don't have the right colors for Peppa, especially the color pink. Oh well...

Baby boy's too excited to see his idol!

After several minutes of waiting, we finally have the chance to let baby boy meet and greet his biggest idol, Peppa Pig!

Trust us, he's her number one fan!

Let's Do The News! (October 2, 2014)

Be afraid because it's bigger than the one Team Rocket's Jessie had in the TV series! No wait, this is the biggest Pumpkaboo you want to have! Sadly for discriminating reasons, this super size Pumpkaboo is for North American and European Pokemon XY gamers only and so far, this fella's not available for Japanese players. Sigh, we wish this super sized Pumpkaboo (or Bakeccha for Japanese) would make it into the hands of Japanese Pokemon XY players in time for Halloween. So, Pokemon Centers from Japan, please take note...

バケッチャ (とくだいサイズ)
