Sleeping Slaves

Good day, people! Though in fact this wasn't particularly a good day at all (for me). Before I get into things, I must first state that from now on if I'm posting on a weekday, I can't really give large doses of content, given the limited amount of time compared to non-school days. Well, I did feed you all with long posts even weekdays last time, but next year there'll be a public exam coming up, and for the first time ever I started feeling a slight hint of anxiety within myself. I don't think I'll be as confident as I was back in 6th grade when taking my first public exam. Especially given how school is progressing nowadays. I ain't hinting that my results are deteriorating, that's a big no-no, despite Phil being able to jump 2 positions at once, my average did increase by 1.6 ... so I guess I'm quite happy with myself. It's been quite long since all the results were out, but I'm only reporting now. Overall I feel content with my performance, and at least this term I managed to ace one paper ... okay, so actually the throne was shared between Michelle and me. Oops, not Michelle, but Michael. Teachers frequently misread his name as Michelle ... so it's pretty much a running gag in our class for quite a long time now. It's the same case with Dawn who got called as Shawn most of the time by our History teacher. Actually it wouldn't be funny if ... um, let's say ... Jordan got referred to as Morgan, because Morgan is pretty much a unisexual name. But Michelle and Shawn are names used for their respective genders, thus making it funny  - despite how obvious the oddities are, teachers still misread the names that way. 
Though of course, these kind of jokes won't have much effect if they're constantly repeated so it's only occasional. 
It's rare to find jokes that don't wear off these days. The verb 'wear' in the context of exhaust reminds me of something new I learned of just now ... shell-wearers. I first knew about them in Stone Ocean ... during the part when two battles took place in Florida (forgot the specfic place name) ... Jolyne & Hermes VS Versace (Stand: Underworld) and Wes/Domenico/Weather (Stand: Weather Report) & Anasui (Stand: Diver Down) VS Enrico Pucci (Stand: White Snake). Basically, Jolyne and Hermes got into a empty car to look for Emporio and Versace, since it seemed to be a transportation free of any snails. Okay, for non-SO/JJBA readers, this may feel frustrating to comprehend. So I'll give a quick but detailed recap of events. Though if you don't find it quick enough, I apologize beforehand. Basically, Weather Report WAS (notice the past tense) an amnesiac Stand User 
who aided Jolyne's party several times since the fight against Lang Wrangler (Stand: Jumpin' Jack Flash) during the quest to get Jotaro's Memory Disk into Savage Garden's hands. After escaping prison with Narciso Anasui to pursue Jolyne, Hermes and Emporio; Weather, Anasui & Vincent Van Gogh (yeah, seriously) beat Ungaro (Stand: Bohemian Rhapsody) before heading to a hospital where both Jolyne and Pucci (the main antagonist) were. When the boys (excluding Vincent) reached there, Versace (a major villain) was already nearly done with his first round against the girls (minus Emporio, who is a BOY and wasn't in the hospital). Versace has also retrieved Weather's memory/Memory Disk from Pucci and returned it to Weather, thus awakening his latent abilities 
that he wasn't able to use while amnesiac, at the same time revealing his true name, Wes Bluemarines (as his mother named him) or Domenico Pucci (as he would've been called should he had lived without being switched at birth with another baby). Anyway, initially Weather's Stand which is also called Weather Report, can already control weather with ease. After the return of his past memories, he had access to the pinnacle of his Stand's abilities, Heavy Weather. Now he can even control the ozone layer, refracting the rays of sunlight and sending subliminal images (in the form of rainbows) of snails into the subconsciousness of men and beasts alike, giving their mental state a impact that will make them perceive of themselves as snails instead of what they actually are, eventually fully morphing their physical figure. So just what is subliminal messaging? Initially in either the 80s or the 90s, subliminal messaging has been used as a form of messaging. For example, in a cinema, an image of coke and popcorn will be slipped in between slides of movies for 1/24 seconds, so actually we don't see it, but eventually we will the thirst for coke and urge to bite on popcorn, increasing the sales of popcorn and coke in cineplexes by around 83%. Later on this method of advertising was banned by the FCC. Actually I first learned of the term subliminal messaging via the manga Yu-Gi-Oh back in 3rd grade, but at that time I never really knew what it meant, and despite only unconvincedly defining it personally as indirect messaging, I had frequently used it in writing. Thanks to Stone Ocean, I took the effort to do a research about it. I seriously don't see how manga can be negative influence to teens. I wish my father can just shut the freaking hell up about me reading manga and playing games. At least I ain't reading porn mags (exposure to pornography will slow down capabilities of the human brain gradually) or doing stupid online gaming (it's stupid for stupid people). I'm sure though, Mr Willie is more open-minded. Though I do feel a BIT unsure, since even teens like Sharon are severely narrow-minded. Is it just me, or do I stray away from the main subject a lot? Okay, so we're going back to the snail part. Right. So, snails are genderless, and reproduce by procreating ... technically, by just coming in contact with their feelers/antennae/eyes (??? ... disgusting). In this sense, those who have turned into snails with also turn others into snails by touching them. To avoid this outcome, Jolyne needs to escape the hospital untouched to look for Versace with Hermes who has already started changing into a snail. So in this car, Hermes saw empty snail shells ... which are suspicious but seemed harmless nevertheless. Later, she discovered to her horror of the presence of snails' natural predators ... shell-wearers, insects resembling ants that get into snail shells and eat away at the flesh. Both organisms are equally disgusting. The snail, especially. Darn, I HATE snails. 

Oh noes! I still have so much more to write about but my mum just have to bathe fast and now it's my turn and up next's bed ... boo T_T.
