In Which Elizaveta Plays 魔女の家


From the program which brought me Ib (RPG Maker), another user stands up to produce another game that is 30% scarier than Ib. That's right, I'm talking about "The Witch's House", also known as "Majo no Ie". (Not Majo no Le, it's Ie! I Google Translated it just to double check too~)


Just a little intro, this game is about a young girl named Viola, and from the title, you can tell that she enters this REALLY SCARY house and the goal is simple, GET OUT OF THE HOUSE. O_O

Let me be honest, for those who have played Ib, you'll know that this game is kinda scarier in a different way. Light is kept to a minimal and the whole room is not illuminated so you can't see what's in front of you and who the hell is chasing you. The music also brought up the scary atmosphere especially when you're chased by something, just like Ib. Graphics are ok and sometimes the objects in the house move by itself just to make you jump a little. One thing that bothers me is the controls, kind of laggy but still it doesn't affect much of the game. :)


Although this game has only a few endings unlike Ib which has multiple endings, this game is packed with trickier and harder puzzles and enemies that are sometimes hard to run away from. Take the red skull at the 2nd floor, it took me almost 6 times to bypass it. >_< DANG!

Even the "Game Over" screen scares me... O_O

Should you want to save the game, you can only save it through a little black cat and the cat only appears in the beginning of each floor. So don't expect different save points like Ib, if you want to save your game just finish up the floor and proceed to the next one. Sounds like old Resident Evil games to me where you can only save with a typewriter... O_O



Overall this game is not bad and it's worth playing too. :3 This would probably be the next Ib. :D

You can download the English version from this site (Note that you'll need to install RPG Maker to run the game.):

In Which I Visit Le Pipit Wonderful Market &100TH POST!! XD


Goodness!  100th post already?!  Fuwafuwa~ :3

So while I was surfing FB, I came to Pipit Zakka's Store fanpage.  That's when I realized that they are having their final Pipit Wonderful Market. Ah well, let's go show some support and stock up some handmade crafts too! X3

So after tution, I head to The Annexe Gallery at Central Market to pay a visit to this market. Sure thing having that this will be Pipit Zakka's final market, it's quite crowded. O.O

Bienvenido! :)
Leave a message here~ ^_^ 
Byk org nya~ XD




Gotta catch 'em all~ POKEMON! :D

Me, mom and Yi looked at what offers are in store. We also wanted to get something for Eri-chan this Christmas as well. So after some hunting, we managed to get her something and as for me I got also some treasures too. :D


I got a shirt too... but it's in the washing ~ :3
Design by wonderkitten
We also got quite a no. of name cards too...
Good for collecting~ :P


I was planning on heading home but dad wanted to watch Skyfall at KLCC. So while we waited for 8pm, we looked around Central Market and I got myself a nice pocket watch pendant. Although I still want one with no see-through cover, but this is also not bad. :)


We also went to Popular to grab the latest 深夜食堂 before going to KLCC and watch fancy posh people heading to Lee Chong Wei's wedding dinner. -_-


We got to the cinema and yea... we watched the movie... >____<
Goodness me there's BL in here. Although the beginning was a total waste and there aren't any new gadgets (Except for a radio and an old Bettle..), the villian saved the movie from becoming the worst Bond film ever. The villian was really smart and awesome, mom even agreed with me. Q was also really cute and cool here too. XD Adele did a great job in the opening, best Bond film opening ever. :)

BL is under way~ O.O
First time me and Yi watched a Bond film in a cinema, mom and dad  first Bond film in a cinema was actually while Sean Connery was James Bond. Forgot which one was it.

So that's about it... :)
Now to rot until next week as the battle between SPM continues... >____<

In Which We Celebrate Spain's Birthday~


Wait what?! I thought Spain's birthday's supposed to be on 12th October. O_O
Naw... I meant my best friend~ :)

So while in the midst of doing those cards, I peeked on my FB and realized not only dad's b'day is coming, me best friend's one is also approaching too. You see, Spain was supposed to stay back for Sr3 but due to complications, he didn't.

And because of that, I decided to give him something a little moah special...
Something handmade...


So there, I made the sketches during SPM Trials, ask him which Touhou character he likes then put my work into action~ Coloring away with my poster colors and markers... :)

Let's fast forward to 1st November, one day before SPM candidates stop school and before his birthday.

Few days before that friends like Xin Zhe and Sam prepared his gifts like buying cake and a pair of REALLY NICE drumsticks. I did prepare what I'm giving and when I was gonna wrap up the present I was like OH CRAP NO WRAPPING PAPER... so I had to use pink and made a big excuse on the front of the present.... ^_^lll

The day arrives, before 1st recess I was soooo drowsy and sleepy until the bell for the 1st recess sounds...


Me, Xin Zhe and Sam arranged all the stuff ( And Spain almost saw it~ O_O ) at Xin Zhe's class and when everything's ready, we head to Sr2SCB. We were so close to dodging him until Spain turned around and... >_<



So everyone broke into a Happy Birthday song and yup... you know... :D

Things went fine ( Except le stupid candle went out ) until Sam realized WE FORGOT DE FREAKIN KNIFE?! O.o Ah well... use chopsticks la~ :P

Edo actually Spain requested something from me for his birthday as well, and after N.Italy and Sam keep ushering me, I gave Spain one nice big hug... *blush* >_<

Gyata~ When I went back to class I was like GYA WHAT HAPPENED BACK THERE... Me sort of paiseh but ah well... ._.

And so fast forward to 12am when Spain opened me present, he liked it and thanked me for it but he went HUNGARY WHAT'S WITH ALL THE JAPANESE WORDS AT LE BACKGROUND?! O.O

There goes another hour of guessing the lyrics to the songs, and me shedding some tears after he guessed them...
What songs you say? Here...



So yeah that's much about it. :)

Hey Spain if you're seeing this, I just want to say that you're a really an awesome and amazing person. I'm actually quite happy I met you and I actually hope that one day, I can bring you and Bela-chan to Hong Kong to visit that crazy mall in Mong Kok, see my relatives, head to the nice park near my Grandpa's home that's by the sea... :)

I still thank you so much for being such a fantastic friend to me in everything. You made my day today. :3


What's that? I haven't show you all what I gave him? Here it is...
I also gave him my Youmu Konpaku badge that I bought during AMG '12.

In Which Elizaveta Draws Steampunk~

So I've started to get attracted to this theme known as "Steampunk". XD In fact, I actually read quite a number of steampunk-themed novels since young. (Does Larklight or The Infernal Devices Series count?) >_<

Anyway, I wanted to try do something related to that theme. So for almost a whole month, I tried focusing on this theme in my drawings. Which resulted me into buying this book... ._.


I find this book kind of cool, it does teach me a bit on devices but seriously the characters?! Who designed them? Why da heck they look like that?! O_O Ok their costumes are fine but what de heck with the looks and body?! @_@

After a while I thought, well since SPM is almost here and I think I never gave anything to my cosplay pals... Perhaps I should make some cards? (ノ゚Д゚)八(゚Д゚ )ノ

And so I got to work...
Rushing this project... ( I STILL HAVE TO STUDY!! ) (⋋▂⋌)


Still in the process... O.O
Took me quite a lot of poster color, I think I still have enough for my Seni exam... >_<

From top: Hungary, Belarus, Spain, South Italy,
Taiwan, China, England. North Italy
There's a total of 8 people from APH in steampunk mode. I made another 4 for my other friends too. So I did a total of 12. After all the hard work I brought my work plus another random piece of art to the photo store to laminate it and slice them into 12 pieces...

Bottom row left to right: Saber Steampunk Ver, Ironman,
Girl's Generation Jessica and Kuchiki Rukia
While I was writing on them I was wondering "Hey perhaps I should tell them it's a puzzle and challenge them into finding all 12 pieces... " ( ✖‿✖ ) After much thought, I decided not to.

So I gave them the cards... But China realized something wasn't right when he found out his card pairs up with Taiwan's one... O.O And so all my friends teamed up and...


I had no choice but to reveal the answer. Ah well~ :P Good luck in your SPM ya! :)
