April Update Week 2 - What Happened?!?

Really~ what’s happening this week? For some reason, not much just a few information update and a few anime info. Plus, a little extra for those who are yu-gi-oh duelists and Magic, The Gathering Duelists.

1- A New Blog – Dee ‘dee’-cision Dee has ‘dee’-cided

Yup, that’s right. I have decided to open up a new blog so for all Otaku viewers out there, you’ll might want to view there. That’s right. The main theme insides are all related to the Otaku side – Anime, Manga, Models, Souvenirs, Yu-Gi-Oh TCGs, and lots of others that’s experienced by me. But the thing is, it’s still in progress in making. Dee wanted some help to other otaku bloggers who are in Brunei out there to help me what Dee should place inside and maybe what you wanted Dee to place as long it’s viewable. Many thanks in advance. ;)

And once this blog is open to public views, Dee will be known as Yuuga over there.

2- The updates over here – Dee will still posts ‘dee’ days of Dee

Since the new blog is still in progress and will be up, Dee will still be posting here, but updates in layout and background will now be slower than ever. When ‘dee’ mood is there, Dee will update. ;)

As for what Dee will be posting next time, will no longer have the updates of anything related to Japan and Anime. So today will be the last time I’ll be doing so.

Plus, once the new blog is up and running, I will be removing all posted blog related to Otaku and Japan. That includes the links, Miku Clock and the KuruKuru Part.

That’s not all, before the blog is up, I’ll be making one last layout and background update where the theme will now be red. ~

Other new updates will be~
Adding back the music player, imeem.
Adding new links especially pictured ones.
Banner will still be shorter.
Adding a Wishlist.

Oh, and I also accept any ideas.

3- Yu-Gi-Oh meet held on Sunday – How Dee meet others

Last Sunday, there was another gathering for Yu-Gi-Oh duelists and the place to meet was the same place in Tanah Jambu. At first glace, the place is still, well, spacey, and there weren’t that many people that came. But what surprises me was there were different duelists there and they’re known what I called, ‘Magic,The Gathering’ duelists. Not bad~. Long ago, I do play Magic, The Gathering TCG but well, I kind of quit because I became overdated with the new gameplay.

Back to Yu-Gi-Oh TCG, the people that came are a few friends that I know, and some from the duel alliance. One of them offered a battle against me. So it’s my first Psychic Tuned Deck Vs. Advanced Gladiator Beast Fusion Deck. The result: 0-2
Well, I lost but I had fun.
Will there be a next week? Hmm~…

4- Family Gathering Event – Dee attend then Dee played…?

This happened last Sunday too, but during night-time. Dee went to Dee’s cousin place and there was a kind of ‘jual-jualan’ gathering. Just for fun, it’s kinda like a mini ‘Gerai Malam’. There, what’s selling was food like ‘soto’, waffle, ABCs, ‘Nasi Campur’, and sometimes comes with free drinks. =)

After all that happened, I get to play a game of Poker, Las Vegas style. But the money’s just chips. So it doesn’t hurt the religion as long as real money is not used. During the play, I had fun, I had laughed so hard, and I even took some pictures. XD~
But in the end, I went virtually bankrupt. Three times even. LoL
As night came late, It’s time to go~ after a few ‘tapau’ and ‘salams’ to the elderly, tiredness is piling up on Dee. And so ends the event.

5- News in Dee’s kingdom in Utopia – A grudge against the Warlords and betrayal in alliance

There was news as grudges from another kingdom had on the kingdom of Warlords. Non-stop hits by them from the news foretell they’re not and won’t be letting us go. There was a request for tactical aid from an ally who was supposed to be in debt with us but ends up being betrayed.
In the end, political issues from the king with the grudged ones announced the issues had been dealt with and news had been sent towards all the people in the kingdom to be ready for a WAVE to be held on the coming few days against the betrayers. More news in next update.

6- Last Minute Play – Dee plays a new character in RRO

Before I went to bed, I thought of playing Ragnarok Online for few minutes as a new character, a Priest.
I was to set myself to play for just a few minutes then there was another character who wishes to party which I automatically agree. Then, as we were leveling we stumble upon a donator who by chance willing to help us in leveling and so I ended up playing a 2-3 hours. -.-;;
But the result was nice~. Got into class change, then rebirth, then high-class change into ~ A High Priest!! What I could do alone in a few days was done in a few hours. Thanks donator.

7- Side Projects – What Dee can do using Photoshop

Until Dee manage to get a new CPU to do heavy editing, Dee was only able to do light editing in Photoshop. For example what Dee did was Photo-Fusion.
Dee doesn’t know if it’s an official name in Photoshop but it’s the name that Dee likes it to be called.
Dee’s terms of Photo-fusion means putting multiples of pictures in one picture. It’s very useful when you’re making a cool banner or something, just to make it look interesting and attractive. There are many techniques used in Dee’s Photo-fusion but I’m still far behind before I can reach what I aimed for using Photoshop. Here’s a few example of what I did in favour from a few people I know.

Note:All pictures will be uploaded in a few days~
Note2: For the next 2 weeks, there'll be no updates due to creation of a new blog and also updating a new layout. ;)

Updates in April Week 1 – Dee is feeling Dee Time is now

As you all see, I added back the Miku Hatsume Clock. ^^
And there’s some new added feature… *silence* you hear that chime? XD
When I first saw it, the thoughts that runs through my head was~ OMG, I’ve got to add that in my blog XD~ And so I did~ ^^

I was wondering if I should opened up Twitter or Facebook and transfer all my non-Japanese related lifestyles there. Or maybe a new blog and transfer all my Japanese related lifestyles there. This question still bears in my mind for now. ^^

More updates coming soon.^^

Stress Prevention & Education Centre – Dee knows now what to do

Did you know? Our bodies contains a lot of toxin that we are not aware of that could lead to diseases that could prove to be fatal one day unless necessary precautions is taken.
Did you know? Japan is still the top one country in having the most stressful people till now.
Did you know? Exercise is one and still the most effective way to save and prolong your life.

There was a talk that day, regarding stressful people and how to prevent it. That if the precautions were not taken seriously, soon the consequences could be too late. That’s why, this talk was introduced and sponsored to remind people the dangers and the preventive measures and also an introduction towards a product that uses nanotechnology that shows and helps one way or another in having a healthier life.
I don’t want to say what’s the inside talk is all about but this talk is really inspiring and convincing. Here’s a few pictures I took.



Utopia World Info – Warlords (3:29) vs. a load of bull sheep (18:3) – The result that Dee want to report

If you want to know about utopia, visit the site here, http://utopia.swirve.com

As I posted before regarding about Utopia, a web-based game that I played, this information is for people who knows about the Utopia game. ^^
So far, the kingdom I’m in manage to earn another war win giving a total of 4 war wins this age. I manage to earn a Viscount title before the end of the war. And now my kingdom mates are in rebuilding mode to get ourselves ready for our next war. What is recorded so far, it is heard that Warlords (3:29) is now in the top 10 honorable kingdom in Utopia.

And it was because of Utopia, I’m not getting much activity in the rest. XD~
Well, a person can only focus one at a time. And I’m taking my time^^

Dee have found 2 things interesting in Brunei – Dee’s hobbies Dee interest in

The first was the new Yu-Gi-Oh TCG(Trading Card Game) shop that opened in Brunei last Sunday. I didn’t have the chance to go there. But I’ll keep my viewers updated in what I’ll find. ^^

The second was when I was browsing through my blog one late night thinking about some last-minute updates just before I decide to post this up ^^. You all heard of FeedJit, right? Y’know, the one that tracks traffic… No? The one found on the left side of my blog. Yes, that one!
I was curious who the 10 top from Brunei were, and as I browse through, I never thought there would be a lot of blogs created by Bruneian people. ^^
Anyway, on with my tales, I kept on browsing through till I found this one blogger. This person is quite a fan on anime~ maybe even more than me, since he have more links. XD
And from there, I’ve known some links and some I haven’t even heard of~ and then there’s this one link there~ leads me to an official Brunei TCG website. At first I thought TCG means ‘Trading Card Game’. I don’t know if it’s a mistype or not but anyway, the point is~ not only it’s not a Trading Card Game website, it’s a site for Bruneians made by Bruneians who are fans of anime or in relation with anime. =D
All I know, people who gathered are fans of Mecha, Gashapons, Models, Convention and maybe Cosplays. Since it was late that night, I don’t have much time to browse through it all. But I do have it bookmarked ^^. Looks like there’ll be more updates coming sooner. ^^


Dee’s had a haircut – starring Dee, who had Dee hair, cut.

Not a big deal, normal hair cut, simple and well, simple. XD

Photo was taken the day before and the day after using only N82’s camera. (Note: Images has been cropped and edited to be viewed at its best image possible.)

History Lesson regarding the nicks that Dee used – How Dee nicks that begins it all.

Some of you might be wondering why I use so many nicks aka alternate names. So today, let me explain a bit on how it all started.

It all started from my very first favourite nick, ‘Ace’. How it inspire me to use it, I don’t remember~ but I still remember some things of why I use it.
1- Because of its meaning (e.g. #1, A pro figure)
2- Because I am. :P
3- I think it’s because from the actor Jim Carry starring in Ace Ventura. LoL
That’s why; sometimes you’ll see mixtures of my nicks like ‘Ace85’, ‘DTAce’, ‘DT3Ace’, ‘ace871985’. Another reason that I used that nick was because I CAN try taking up any challenges and always try over and over until I beat others until I reach the top. The main reason I only use it in some occasion was because the nick is getting common and also I feel the change was in need. But I still use it.

The second nick I used back then is ‘Striker’. From the word, most of you would know, especially those who likes sports like football. Up front, and initiate the attack. Good offense is the best defense.
I cannot recall how I ended up using this nick. But there’s always a reason why I use it and that is, attack first and ask questions later. :P
The only time I use this nick is when I’m playing a fighting game or games that shows aggression. :D
And so a combination of nicks I used is ‘Ace Striker’, ‘DT3Striker’.

There’s still a few nicks more to show, but now let’s rest a bit and let me tell you about extension nicks I added to the to the first two nicks, which is ‘DT’.
The ‘DT’ extension in the nicks I’ve used can mean many words but mine would mean Double-Triple, Double-Team, and/or Double-Trouble.
Double-Triple – 2 Lives, 3 Personalities.
Double-Team – Team Player, Cooperate, Together, Good Combination.
Double-Trouble – Don’t expect much, double the confusion, double the pain.
So any one of the three would represent its meanings If you see ‘DT’ in the nicks I’ve use.
‘DT’ can also be found in the name of this blogspot, dtdee23life.blogspot.com

Ok, I’ve explained about the ‘DT’ nick thing, now onto the next nick I’m using and that next nick is ‘Dee’. This nick was used since the day I just began my studies during my technical years. And it’s still used till now. This nick is also used as part of my blogspot name, dtdee23life.blogspot.com.
This nick is just a short form of my name and it is also easy to remember like A, B, C, ‘D’. LoL
Mixture of nicks used with these nick are ‘D-kun’, ‘DTDee’, ‘D-san’, ‘D-Boss’.

After that nick, I recalled something my friends used to call me during that time. But it wasn’t used very long. Still, it’s still considered as a nick. I just can’t believe I still remember it. I don’t really like it but I don’t really mind. =D
The short nick that friends used to call me that time was ‘Big Boss’ as in ‘Da Boss from Mafia’. LoL
I had fun that time. I really had fun that even a small Mafia group was formed. LoL
But I had to drop it because it didn’t really fit with my personality. :P But still, I still don’t mind being called ‘Boss’.


This last nick represents the name I translated – Original Name -> Arabic-Malay Translated -> Malay-Japanese Translated -> Japanese nick.
It took just simple research, and two simple translation dictionaries.
Arabic -> Malay Dictionary, I translated my original name and it means ‘keelokkanku’ in Malay.
Malay-> Japanese Dictionary, I translated the Malay word and It means ‘Yuuga’.
It’s simple, right? So, whenever you see the nick ‘Yuuga’ anywhere, that could be me. :D
Nicks I mix with this nick is ‘Yuuga Valentine’.

So that’s it with the history regarding my nick. Just to let you all know, I’m still using these nicks but the nicks that I’m showing would be ‘Dee’ and ‘Yuuga’. The rest are for personal only. ^^
Oh, and another thing. I also have a secret nick which cannot be showed to just anyone. You’ll just have to find that out. :P
