Hi all! Due to a series of pre-surgery conditioning, surgery, and post surgery treatment which I'm about to take, I'll be off for quite sometime. I'll be online once and awhile, though, coz I'll have my Opera Mini all the time - even in hospital (^_^)p
This is my 2nd surgery. I had a tumor removed in my 1st surgery - back in September 2008. I also got my small intestine and colon cut. But it was not over yet. I still have another smaller mass of tumor and cysts to be removed, and bowels to be joined (yup, they were cut and remain so for these whole 4 months... don't ask me how I deal with it). Pretty long routine, eh? Thank God the doctors are up to the idea of having those all three at the same time. I want to over it. I don't want to live surgery after surgery...
So I have to eat a lot, take lots of vitamins and have a little bit more rests to prepare me for the operation... Wish me luck, okay, and pray me I'll be home by the time LaMB is finally aired. It's just ridiculous if I'm so obsessed by LaMB but cannot see its premiere (^_^)

I'm new to blogging. This LaMB blog is actually my first blog, followed by Living Daisy - my personal blog. I dare say that if Animax hadn't launched a LaMB blogging contest I might not have started to blog (^_^); Since I've got so many things to catch up, I surf and blog and try to customize and tweak template a lot. Well I used to have my own personal website that I designed to look like a blog, back to a few years behind. But the real blogging is a bit different. The atmosphere, the coding, the community... it's all new to me, therefore it's very intriguing to explore. It's like having a new toy that you want to play, eat, and even sleep with it (^_^)p
And that brings me to the last must-entry I choose for this contest...
- Choose a side. Are you for or against lamination?
How would I do that? Like a glimpse I've given in my previous post Eve in Blue, by blogging. I'll have an underground movement by having a secretly designed blogging community. By joining our community, they'll get a special tool that allows them to blog secretly. LaMBs can barely speak, not to mention they can't express themselves. But somehow they will manage to blog everyday as a way of expressing and letting out their feelings which have been silently buried in their hearts. They'll share with the other LaMBs, and from there we will include them in a plan for movement. Our movement is basically trying to give their freedom back by finding a new way of handling prisoners.
The main issue for having such a community is safety and security. So we - the ALH - will have to build a special feature for LaMBs for them to blog. A feature that will reveal their true identity yet cover it from outsiders. We don't want our community to be filled with alias names which we can't guarantee that s/he really is a LaMB. But we don't want people outside our organization to know that the blogger is a LaMB either, because somehow we cannot protect the blogs from people to read. Outsiders apparently will see those blogs as personal blogs where some people with some common daily life problems. (Yes, we do have a system to convert any restricted terms such as "Shepherd", "CAB-Cerra", "lamination", etc, into safe phrases like "my boss", "my company", "the make up kit" (^_~) )
LaMBs are part of our movement, but we don't want the government to know it, not a bit. Because if they know it, they will notice that their system has a flaw, that a LaMB can actually do something secret behind their masters back. That their free-will is actually still there. And it'll make them more aware of our movement.
Well that's the plan so far.
Note that we don't have anything to do with Anti Lamination Hooligans, because although they are also trying to get LaMBs' trusts - off the record - we suspect that their mission is actually to get rid of all LaMBs. They hate LaMBs because they think those prisoners have no right to a second chance. So please define us from them (^_^)

Special Note:
After this, I'll slow down my pace a bit. See you when LaMB is finally aired! (^_~)

New wallpapers are available on Animax-LaMB official website. A picture of Eve really got me in to it. So much that I imagine... what if a LaMB had a blog? Yeah, they can barely speak but they can write, can't they? I imagine this is the way they would interact to each other and perhaps, later, organize some kind of movement against the government... ahaha... (^_^)p
It's arguable yet it's very captivating me and the next thing I know, I've made another simple Blogger template (^_^)

- Lamination suit: the suit a LaMB wearing during imprisonment

- Shepherd: the person "owning" the LaMB
- Eve: a female LaMB where all female LaMBs are called Eve-followed by a serial number
- Adam: a male LaMB where all male LaMBs are called Adam-followed by a serial number
Been talking bout LaMB for quite sometime, let's take a closer look to the characters.
There are 4 characters have been introduced so far, 2 charas have been revealed while the other 2 remain mystery.
We have Jack:

- Professional Background: Military Scientist - Bio Weapons Division
- Sentenced 200 years of imprisonment in a lamination suit for killing innocence people by mistake in a military operation.
Jack & Eve
will it be an impossible love between a Shepherd and his LaMB?

- LaMBs cannot speak nor do they have free will. Have you ever been in a situation where you felt you couldn’t speak up or express yourself?
I'd say that nowadays people are more free to speak up and express themselves. When we have thoughts burried in our mind about anything - daily life, politics, gadgets, etc - not only we can speak them up freely, but also publish them. The era of blogging has made speaking up an easy task.
Being heard is another thing.
We can talk about the president and his policies, health insurance, starvation, movies, or maybe the latest netbook around... but are we being heard? All the stuff we are talking and screaming about... what impact can it give? Or in the end, it doesn't even matter?
Some people are lucky enough to have a position where they can speak and being listened. The people in the government, teachers, broadcasters, celebrities... are some of the people who have this privilege. Unfortunately, they often forget to use this opportunity to drive people to do good things, to spread good deeds. On the other hand, some people are desperate to be heard to the point they do extreme things.
Maybe it's not the talking that matters, it's the essence in it. And the efforts to make it being heard.
