Last Thursday,i met my childhood friend,Alan in CCK mrt station.
He is about 3-4 years older than me.I greeted him with friendly gesture.
I asked him what he was doing.He said that he was looking for job(as i recall he was working some sort of computering job after he finished his poly studies)
Inside the mrt train,he told me that louis(my primary school classmate) had moved to Hillview to Bukit Gombak as he pointed at the new building when mrt train passed by.
I though that is good deal to move there by government because hillview is going to be demolish for some purposes.
This flat is very new and look taller than my flat but just the design make look like one(i believe that this flat is 15 stories tall as my flat)
He also informed me that he has newly-born child and he had to go back to look after his child.Indeed..not so long ago(probably last year) he was married but then i wasn't there to view
What a pity.
Last friday night,Junqiu went to my home to get windows xp.On the way to my home in cck area,there is a group of people doing survey.
A young lady apporach him asking him whether he is indian.
Bah..I am sure that adeline see him as chinese.
What a humourous way to do survey.*grin*
Last Saturday night,i went to sportz ball pub to accompany junqiu(an spurs fan) to see derby match between Tottenham Hotspurs(spurs) and Arsenal(gunner)*both are situated in london*
It was crowded because it is one of hell bloody derby game every epl season.
Yesterday,Zhongming came to my home till 5pm.We went to Causeway point for dinner.
i see a lot of people in Burger King..Too bad i never had a chance to eat onion ring fries.It was quite a long time since i last ate.(i think 1-2 years)
As far as i see Alan appearance,he has really grown into 'young uncle'.
Young people have 'thick' skin while people who are getting aging will find their facial skin thin and thinner.
i can't imagine how i will look like as i will grow and age.
Tony Del Piero wrote and posted at at 12:20 pm Last Thursday,i was playing soccer with Junqiu at NUS from 5pm till 8pm.
My legs and toes were nearly numb because i played soccer for consecutive two days(6pm till 9pm wednesday).My legs,toes,calves are aching till today.
Last Friday,i chose fastest option to reach Junqiu home at Bedok.
MRT from CCK to AMK and change to take bus no 22.
At his home,i looked at his computer problem.It look like hard disk problem.
We went off taking bus 60 to Enous MRT station.
We went up.
I saw a petite girl waving towards at the direction.I thought she was waving somebody who might was waking behind me.That is how i react every time i see like that.
We settled where we stand.This petite girl walked forward and waved at me again.
I looked at her clearly.
Wah..It is Adeline
Who would thought that she look so petite in this kind of appearance at this far distance.
Next time when you see me from few metres away,i am truly short-sighted person.
Things are getting smaller and smaller as i grew up.I can see very clearly at short distance.
I tell you..i didn't recognise her because she was wearing clothes,glasses and she also never tied her hair.
Bish..She look different from the picture(Adeline and Linda) i saw.
It is good to see such things do wonder for Adeline.
She playfully talked with me and my friend.The last conversation topic was about why i never pass my handphone number to her.
I don't bring it to school because i don't like the idea of going out somewhere after school leaving me little time to prepare.
I let Adeline to key her mobile phone number in my contact list.
I bade goodbye to her and left with my friend at bugis.
Over there at Sim Lim Square,we compared the price of 40GB seagate pata hard disk until we settled down at Fuwell.
He bought it and i went to next store that was opposite to Fuwell.
I looked at ASUS laptop.I queried with the salesman about upgrading to 1Ghz ram.
After that,we went to eat for dinner.I am waiting to order 3 choices with rice but the old lady was holding everybody in the queue.She took a lot of time to decide the choices for 2 persons meal takeout.The lady who attended the old lady even lost her patience with her.I saw a person walked away from the queue.Sad business for them.
We went back to his home to put his new hard disk into his computer.It seem that original win 98 cd and 3 win xp cds won't let me to setup and install the os system.
I suspected that all the cds i insert were not working.Unfortunately,i didn't bring and he don't have friends who live nearby and had win xp.
In the end we had to go to my home at CCK.It took me 1 hours to prepare such stuffs and went back to his home.
The route to AMK by mrt took us there at AMK by 11.30pm.I saw the last bus(22) left when we were in mrt train.We waited for 45mins for bus no 22.Nothing came and we took taxi to his home.
I insert my win xp cd and it works.
The cause of his problem is spoil cds with torn layers.*chey*
I stayed overnight to install all neccessary programs.
I saw A level economics textbook on his table.I browse through and i was very interested in the content of the book.
I guess i gotta read it up once i have done with movies and storybooks.
I left his home at 5.30am and walked from his home to Enous MRT.
On the way,i saw a middle-aged man riding on his bicycle with his eyes closed.
What the fuck.His cycling is constant and straight and he was listening some music or radio as i saw black-coloured earphones.*roll eyes*
I wonder what is to be done to achieve this simple-looking-and-yet-look-a-bit-dangerous stunt.
I am sleeping till 2pm today.
I talked with Edwin about ASUS laptop i saw yesterday and he is going there now to check out.Hopefully,this asus laptop can give him a lot of pleasure.
I am now writing.
I am considering to compile snapshots of how to fix computer problems.
In my mobile phone contact list,i only got those classamtes of mine(Adeline,Serene Aw,Grace and Edwin) at the moment.
If you are interested to be part of it,let me know.I will be glad to include you.
Nowadays i think if i go out very often,i might see a lot of students from my school.
Tony Del Piero wrote and posted at at 2:52 pm Junqiu and Daniel asked me to join them to play soccer in condition that Daniel treated me a drink.
haha...
I took MRT from Choa Chu Kang to Ang Mo Kio and transfer from MRT to bus by taking bus no 22.
I reached there at Serangoon at 5.50pm.It is almost 1 hour trip.
I played with them until 9.05pm
Jian Wei went home straight while Junqiu,Daniel and i took cab to go Serangoon Garden hawker centre.
It was $3.20.
Over there,Daniel and Junqiu ordered congee,chin chow drink(junqiu) and then ultra big cup of suger cane(daniel and Junqiu).We ordered honey-flavoured satay.
I was stunned with the size of the cup for suger cane.It was like 5 times bigger than normal cup.
After that,Daniel refused to take 136 back to AMK but choose to take 73 back to Ang Mo Kio because this bus will drop him in the nearest bus stop to his home.
So smart to make us wait and wait for this fucking bus number.It was like 20mins wait while i see 3 136 buses passed by.
Gah!
Thursday,i will play soccer with junqiu at NUS and then friday,i go and fix his hardware problem.On Saturday,if junqiu is feeling good,we might go to pub to watch arsenal vs tottenham at night.

Have your mind been pondering for some time after doing exams?
I think we all do.
What bite us is the future that leave us with no definite answer.
We need to be brave enough to face the future and do what we actually can.
I am still thinking that way nowadays.
Let listen this song to relax as we are all thinking of it.
This song has began to grow on me.I have been listening it but i have no liking to it until i heard it very clearly from reborn live concert cd.I began to like it.
I wonder what made me to like it and so i went to check its lyrics.
Ah...no wonder the vocal tell you that the path is really long and yet we all need to hold our breath and walk until we reach its end.
It is mandarin song,281公里
*traditional chinese
追逐里程 或是選擇追逐雨
逃避人群 不是有心逃避你
我在寂寞公路 只點著一盞月亮
沒有指定的地方
也許是我們都渴望再成長
速度可以冷卻滾燙的淚水
誰也無法忘記纏繞的滋味
感情像在車裡漂浮空中的煙灰
越是揮手想凐滅
越是薰得人忍不住掉眼淚 掉眼淚
281公里的出口 我不回頭
哪裡有屬於 我的地球
281公里的出口 我向前走
走到我覺得不寂寞 不寂寞

Tony Del Piero wrote and posted at at 9:57 pm I know that i have not done blogging every day however i just want to do a lot of things in one entry rather than doing small chunk of it every day.
I want to write how much things i have began to notice during these 2 weeks.
I understand that it is not possible to notice every detail around me but i was actually surprised that i have missing some of this kind of detail during past few months.
I always give far view look at few of my classmates until recently,i was suddenly had a clear and close view of them.I began to notice something i never realise.
Oh well,i thought that it was unbelieveable then.It struck me into something that everybody has each flaw and trying hard to stand beyond the thin string that is strangling them for some time."Accept the realistic fact you are facing"
I forgot to mention something about last friday.
When i was in NUH,i sat down waiting for my mother and sister to come out from the doctor room after i finished eating lunch.
Hey presto..there is a man and lady talking each other.
I looked at the lady carefully as i was bored.
She has a good smile as she was trying to work together with her male colleague.
Oooo.She had a good charm as i looked up to down from her head to toe.
It struck me that she was ideal girl i would want to fancy.
She was entering in and out of the empty doctor rooms.I have no clear idea what kind of task she is doing.
Too bad it lasted around 30minutes as i stepped out of children ward.
Furthermore,my mother remarked that i was very active(going out very often)when i was young but when i first got computer and played Championship Manager 2 game,i began to be less active staying home more often.
Oh well,i guess i will balance being active and inactive at times.
Football Manager 2006.I am quite pleased with new additions and improvements based on Football Manager 2005.I loved to dream as manager.For now,i contend myself playing this game which is close to realism.

Full Metal Panic The Second Raid(Japan Anime 2005)
Click here for official website
Ever since a anime friend of mine recommended me to watch Full Metal Panic(first series),i enjoyed the machine strategy fight and jokes.
It continued with Full Metal Panic Fumoffu! and this was entirely unrelated but it was more into comedy side.I laughed like hell.Ooo,i simply love Sagara Sosuke and Chidori Kaname pair.
And now Full Metal Panic The Second Raid is set to continue its actual story.
One of itshappening is quite saddening.The higher authority ordered Sosuke to abort the mission to look after Chidori Kaname.That is where Sosuke began to miss her and felt the love for her.Ever since Sosuke left,chidori began to feel insecure when she found out that someone was watching her.She wanted the company and protection from Sosuke so badly.
Here is some snapshots i liked
Pretty Chidori Kaname was complaining how sosuke forget to return her books as sosuke was in mssion.
Chidori is giving a haircut for Sosuke.I wish i am Sosuke. :D
Worried and anxious chidori was trying to keep lookout for spy and tried to shake him off by running in different direction and switch to another direction.
Sosuke's captain Theresa Testarossa..I consider her innocent and yet pretty girl.

Prince Of Tennis(Japan anime 2001-2005)
Finally,it reached finale at episode 178.
I learnt a lot of things from this show.
techqniue,thinking,concentration and passion.
My favourite character,Fuji Shusuke.A tennis genius..great in creating advantages for him.He is true genius looking for powerful challenge to make him to realise the true potential of tennis.
this character also impressed me.Mr Baker,US west coach.
He entertained everyone but he need fame and money.
Sadly....
It is important to display all fabulous skills and awesome tiempo keeping audience excited.

Tony Del Piero wrote and posted at at 2:37 pm Yesterday i watched Prince of Tennis animation until halfway.
After that,i had a chat with Zhongming till 5am.
I slept from 5am till 10am because my mother need me to take my sister to NUH for checkup.Geez..
Upon reaching there,i took her to children ward and i got headache.
I guess the medicine smell is the cause.I couldn't tolerate at all and so i step outside leaving my mother to look after my sister.
Two young persons walked pass the exit before my eyes.I thought they look familiar and they must be from my school.
Not bothering about this fact,i went to order a small cup of grape-flavoured soft drink.
After that i ate Lor Mee for lunch and then my mother bought curry puff saying that they were very delicious.So,i gave it a try with Zhongming as i went to meet him at Tiong Bahru Mrt station.
Great curry flavour.
I went to Upper Serangoon Shopping Centre and ask Uncle Lim about Football Manager 2006.He said that the stock would arrive in Singapore by 3pm and then would arrive at his stop by 6pm.It was only 1.40pm and so i couldn't wait this long.I took Zhongming to Serangoon Garden walk to eat Mee Pok by walk.25mins walk though..
After the meal,we walked back to MRT and we went to Dhoby Ghaut.
I wanted to make some price enquiries about M-Audio professional sound cards,especially Delta 1010.
The salesperson quoted $420 and $380 for two different verisons of Delta 1010.Interesting.I am not sure whether i should buy because i want good sound chipset and i avoid Via chipset at my cost.
After that we passed by 4 new SMU buildings.I saw a lot of SMU students celebrating.
We reached at Funan and most of software stores have Football Manager 2006.They are priced at $59.90.
We walked around until we had enough.
I went back to my favourite store called PK computer and purchase Football Manager 2006 at its price tag of $59.90 but the cash machine read as $57.90.
HUH but that was good one.I still paid in full exact amount in cash.
We walked to Esplande to eat at open space hawker centre.
This time,i ate fishball noodles.
I am aleady full.What a huge serving.
I am back home now!I am going to uninstall Football Manager 2005 and install Football Manager 2006.
After that i continue watching Prince of Tennis until its finale episode 178!
FUJI SYUUSKE!
I will play Football Manager 2006 tomorrow!

Tony Del Piero wrote and posted at at 9:14 pm I spend writing accountings for so many hours until i finished about 50-60 question.
Today,i left home at 1pm since i have nothing to do.
Taking accounting paper,i am quite surprised to see such questions.
Q1a has two 'traps' which is enough to kill average accounting student till their hands go numb.
Obviously,my right hand and arm nearly went numb because i did 4 questions to check how much time i took and what error i made this morning.
Comparing the 3 scenarios i took accounting paper.
The first paper was so easy that i finished very fast.
Second paper i did badly in most part of questions even though i knew how i do but just that my mind was distrubed by a teacher.I managed to salavage to the last dylng hour to overturn wrong balances into right balances in most of the questions.
Today,third one,i clocked few minutes earlier than the first accounting paper i do before but it was really too fast.Minimum careless may take its place but i can sense a pass clouding on this paper.
Best part is that there is no balance sheet question.I was fucking surprised!
It was good that i was recovered from mouth ulcer and i felt that i grew a lot.
Especially that last thursday,i had feeling tat i never felt before.I believed that i have let go of many things that i kept for a long time and i am glad to do that few months ago.I feel it may be the cause behind it.
Cheers friends!We all need second chance to renew our interest.
My brain cells are getting back.
Ask Eugene and he knows that i can't remember the sequence of month in a year calendar.Recently,i can do that now.
For strange cause,i suddenly improved!
Tony Del Piero wrote and posted at at 6:03 pm Yesterday,i really did not like afternoon session doing exams because it leave me so much anxiousity during the morning.I was idle spending my time to rest my arms and brain so as i could do the paper at top condition health.
Tomorrow,once again it will be afternoon session.Geez...
I was sweating over two simple questions because i made some mistakes somewhere until i managed to find at the last hour.I managed to finish it.
For now,i think it will be all right.
Costing...questions are tricky but the working are simple.that is why whole class find it simple because of the workings.
One of my favourite quote is "sometimes taking easy paper will lead you harder path while on the other hand taking harder paper will lead you easier path"
I rather do accounting than costing!!!!
Ever since last two semesters,i got A for acounting exams in a row.I wonder i continue the feat again for tomorrow accounting paper.
Today,i revise through accounting.
I think some of us need to be wary of accounting ratio through answering questions without trial balance table and publised account.
I see these two as highest potential threat for people who are average in accounting.
It is important to have good circulation blood in your brain so that u can remember which mistake you may make after u found some sums don't tally well..
Shut down your brain and leave the job to your hands doing the highlighting and calculating so many times will not do the jusitce at all even you know everything in accounting.
Balance yourself on hightlighting,calculation and brain-thinking.
After the accounting paper,i will start watching all animation shows i store for a few days!
Tony Del Piero wrote and posted at at 6:54 pm By the time after doing exams you read this,take your sweet time to listen this song.
I have studied costing for 3 days.
All measures i took up was to clock my timing each time i start a costing question till i have done.
I ate chinese delicacy,bird nest to keep my condition tip-top.
At the same time,i do play some game like Winning Eleven 8 international during few mintues break to challenge my brain before i have clear mind to study again.
This song is called 假天真.
Nicholas Tse sang this song in Viva live concert.
It bring out the feeling to you to forget things and start doing the new things like doing exams. :D

It is not out in Singapore yet but it is already out in Hong Kong since Oct 13th.
Tat Ming and Nicholas Tse sang cantonese songs together and solo.
I listened all 28 songs and i liked.
Tat Ming was impressive.I heard him singing Nicholas Tse's 非走不可 and composed song that meant for Faye Wong during his courtship.
I find that he was doing very well singing 非走不可 with his old-fashioned singing style.
vocal tone and texture,method of singing each chinese characters,mainly voice...all these he dished out to sing 非走不可.I liked it too.
Tat Ming gained my respect despite of him as middle-aged man.
WHAT!Nicholas Tse sang his own song,玉蝴蝶(Jade Butterfly) in new verison of vocal singing.I think it is much better than before.This time the last 4 chinese characters he said is louder than the recorded verison.
Background song playing during 狼 song is much better.Definately good one than the one played in recorded and Gala charity show.
It is very groovy rock music throughout.

It is important not to have headache otherwise the blood couldn't circulate properly throughout the body system.

I am doing an 'SAT' style
American examination,SAT is the killer especially when it require you to do for hours and hours with few minutes break.
Never tried but some of my friends told me about it.
They said that it was really breaking their concentration and physical condition.
Doing few papers in one day with few minutes break is indeed insane.
But then i am doing that way as well on studies.Geez,my interest and excitement is there but it is wearing me down because i am doing Costing for more than 10 hours.
Current assets+quoted investment/current liabilities
fixed interest captial(preference shares+debentures+non current liabilities)/ordinary share capital+reserves
net profit before tax-preference dividends/no of ordinary shares
current assets+quoted investment-prepayment-stock/current liabilities-bank overdraft
gross profit/net sales
net profit/net sales
p/e ratio=market price/Earning per share(eps)
these accounting ratio are the marking where i can recall for now.
Tony Del Piero wrote and posted at at 12:22 am I have 3 days including today to go before i start doing costing paper on next monday afternoon.
What am i gotta do?
I need to train my brain.
Brain control every function in the body.
All i need is to train and massage my brain nicely.
Respect the pain in the brain such as headache...Vigilance must be on high during the war after i have trained my brain enough.
Active brain is the one you need the most when doing exams and proper training in doing correct things is the biggest part of it.

It certainly reminded me of something.

in the end,the next day we were canned for 2 strokes and females will do cleaning work.

Wah,i saw someone wearing Segaku coat.What the fuck.
That coat can be seen in Prince of Tennis animation but the coat i see look like kid-style and lightweight.
Don't look nice to me at all.*roll eyes*
that is the jersey coat what i saw.
3 days to burst my brain and hands.
Today i did around 20 accounting&costing questions.
I am struck with Balance sheet(may 2003).Managed to get total assets right but can't match with total equity@liabilities.
Arrrhh
Let me write down what i remember about accounting ratio.
Right in my brain...
Earnings Per Share=Net Profit After Tax-Preference Dividend/Number of Ordinary shares
Gearing Capital=fixed interest capital/ordinary share captial+reserves
Working Ratio Capital=current assets+quoted investment/current liabilities
Tony Del Piero wrote and posted at at 11:39 pm Today,i heard the discussion who will come to school tomorrow during accounting lesson.
I guess i will come tomorrow so that i can get more revision papers to do.
At least,this period is something i feel is excitement when doing questions.
No sweat.
i finished my group's entrepreneurship presentation.Actually,it boost my morale so that i may face public one day.
I have to prepare for one.
Two more new subjects for my course in final year after my exam and holiday.
aww.it meant more time in school every day!
Bah!
Those years...it is about time for me to stand up till the day tell me to lie down.
Two papers to do starting from next week.
It is about the time to change my blog song to boost the morale.
The song will be 'I believe' in cantonese.
When i bought this 'Believe' album,i heard this song and i was attracted immediately.
Sweet and slow vocal singing gathering your belief to do something.
Of course,it boost my morale and so can you.

So far,my haircut is within my expectation.
Recently,i caught with some news when i was waiting for my sister in hospital.
I wonder natural disaster is the real catalyst for India and Pakistan for peace.
I read interesting things about medical minor illness facts.
"the pain isn't mostly caused due to your age(45-80 but it is all about lifestyle you live."
I thought that it was impressive one to publish it in medical magazine.
Nowadays Government has done good job on road building.
Last time,the best route would be CCK via Bukit Batok via PIE via Clementi via AYE via NUH
But now,there are more than 3 routes to choose.
I was surprised that the route from CCK via Bukit Timah Via Pandan Via Clementi via AYE via NUH was fast and traffic-free.Thanks to underground pass and overhead bridge that allow cars to avoid traffic lights.It is cheaper taxi fare than former route.
I love that transports with less traffic jams travel within short time.
That is why i hate traffic jams.Try yourself in other country even it isn't peak hours.
Yesterday,biggest sex scandal between two male and female taiwanese celebrity was overblown over the media.It is sad that it is the work of chinese gang.

It should be pink shoes in korean by its standard but then international english title is this red shoes.
My foot,in this movie the shoes is pink.*i am not that colourblind*
I guess red represent blood and so they want to excite people with such horror theme title.
Anyway it was better than Gabal in term of horror but Gabal was more touching instead.
Poor ending accompanied with good scare timing and some twists.

Tony Del Piero wrote and posted at at 9:44 pm I just checked the main lead characters of this shows who act Yamada and Aoyama.
I was surprised that they were acted by siblings.
A lot of people loved this Densha Otoko.
Comedy and love combined genre drama.
The real life story itself is already miracle.
May we have such miracle like this,then we can realise the joy of it.

Tsui Hark is the director of this film and sadly,the flop still follow him no matter what he tried to do.
Too much action and yet no story to begin with.
Rating:6/10(i was generous for one more mark more due to a lot of actions through 1hr 40mins)

This film season in korea have brought a lot of korean horror movies.
I started with this movie.
So far,it was supposed to be horror but i was surprised to see touching ending.
Rating:6/10(never meant to be horror)
Meanwhile i discovered that there is another special show to follow up after Gokusen 2.
Unbelieveable,it explain why Gokusen 2 swept so many awards last year.
And this year,Densha Otoko gotta sweep few awards for sure.
Despite of that japanese movie film standard dropped,japanese drama show standard is getting better with 2005 productions like Densha Otoko and H2.

Densha Otoko means train man in japanese.
It is like miracle because it said that it is based on true story.
If so,i am truly surprised and stunned how it work out.
I want to share this to you all so as you can understand how it is like.
Most popular japanese drama.Highest viewing numbers in Japan.
Originally,i watched ep1 and ep2.There is no punch but then i continue watching to see why a lot of people watched this show.I realised the fun of watching this story.
I was simply hooked after ep2.
The concept is similar as 101st marriage prospsal(old and ugly man marry young and pretty woman) but this one is based on(young okatus*means crazy into every animation* guy get together with pretty and rich lady.
I intend to pick all important ones and leave unimportant ones for you all to watch it if you feel like doing so.
Rating:10/10
Summary:
Adapted from the best selling book "Train Man," this is the true life story of a geeky young man's romance with a beautiful young lady. The book is based on actual messages posted on a huge internet discussion board in Japan. A million internet users followed the Train Man's romance, giving him advices on how to impress the girl and take her out on dates. Train Man belongs in the so-called "Akiba-kei" category: a term that describes nerdy looking men who hang out at Akihabara (the famous electronics area in Tokyo) all day, who are obsessed with video games and computers.
Hermes
Saori Aoyama is a 25-year old woman who works at a foreign company in Tokyo. She has lived overseas for a long time and is fluent in English. She has an aura of sophistication and a beautiful face that turns men's heads.
One Sunday, Saori had to attend a party at work. Her female colleagues are busy searching for good-looking guys while Saori attends foreign guests, flashing warm smiles at them. After a long day working, Saori rides the train home only to be involved in an incident that would change her life.
Inside the train, Saori is harassed by a heavily drunken man. When the drunk reaches to touch her face, a young man stands up and says, "S... stop that!" She turns to see a very weak looking young man. The young man's action sparks up a quarrel in the train. He feebly says, "I'm sorry for getting you all involved. This is my fault." Some of the other passengers have annoyed look on their faces, but some praise the young man for his courage. Saori also seems impressed at what the man did for her.
Train Man
The young man is 23-year old Tsuyoshi Yamada. He is the typical nerd obsessed with anime and computer games. He always hangs out in Akihabara, the electronics center in Tokyo. Tsuyoshi has no interest in fashion and other trends, and his age equals the number of years he hasn't had a girlfriend. He works as a salesman at an employment agency but is always scolded by his boss.
Tsuyoshi just happened to be on his way home from an event in Akihabara when he met Saori. He has never been in a fight before, but the sight of the drunk harassing Saori made him furious as he stood up to protect her.
The only things Tsuyoshi is usually interested in are anime and video games. But something about Saori's beauty lit a fire in his heart, giving him courage. When he's looking for words to apologize, Saori hands him her date planner. "I want to return a favor, so can you write down your address?" Tsuyoshi is taken back. He has been humiliated a thousand times by women, but never appreciated, especially from a beautiful woman like Saori. Saori has a sweet smile on her face as she watches Tsuyoshi write down his address with shaking hands.
Hermes and Train Man
If it wasn't for the drunk man in the train, Tsuyoshi and Saori would never have become acquainted. A few days after the train incident, Tsuyoshi really receives a package from Saori. Inside was a Hermes tea cup. Tsuyoshi held the bright orange cup with his shaking hands. Unfortunately, he has never had a girlfriend in the past and is at a loss about what to do. That is when he visits a huge internet discussion board for some help.
Tsuyoshi immediately becomes the center of attention. Other computer freaks reply one after another. "Call her and say thanks!" "No, it's better to keep it a memory." Reading the heated discussion, Tsuyoshi is touched that so many people are supporting him even though they don't know each other at all.
Since then, Tsuyoshi has been referred to as "Train Man" and without her knowledge, Saori was being called "Hermes."
Ever since Tsuyoshi received the Hermes cup, his everyday life is filled with new experiences: calling a girl, mobile phone messages, buying clothes, going on a date, holding her hand, walking her home, visiting her room... Everything that happens between him and Saori is a big event and miracle for Tsuyoshi. He does his best to hide his geek-ness. Tsuyoshi's mind is occupied with just one wish. "I want Saori to like me."
On the other hand, Saori is starting to be moved by Tsuyoshi's efforts. "Maybe I can trust Tsuyoshi" she thinks. What Saori looks for in a guy is not his money, nor his looks or brains, but "honesty." In the past, Saori was betrayed and deeply hurt by her longtime boyfriend. She found out that he had a wife and kids. Since then, Saori could not stand a man that lies.
What happens when Saori finds out what the real Tsuyoshi is like? How will she react when she discovers she has become a heroine on an Internet site?
