This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Incendia Health. All opinions are 100% mine.
Do you have 20/20 vision? If not, then you know all the inconveniences that can be brought about by various vision problems. Sometimes, it could be even worse than just inconveniences. Fortunately, with the much advancement in technology, vision correction through laser procedures isn’t as expensive as they it to be. They are now more accessible and affordable.
Because of this, more and more lives are being changed by being given the chance to have normal vision without wearing glasses or contacts. Stories will range from changes in people’s simple everyday lives to those stories about doing better in their profession after undergoing laser vision correction procedure.
Abbott Medical Optics, Inc. (AMO), a global leader in laser vision correction is then launching their “You Gotta See This” Video Contest. Those interested in joining will have to submit a video about the impact of improved vision, particularly, under one of the following categories:
• “My contacts are getting in the way of my good time”
• “My favorite sport or activity would be so much cooler with better vision”
• “You should see life after the iLASIK® Procedure”
They can then tell their friends to vote for their video! This is one of the key factors to victory. And the victorious ones will be winning:
• $5,000 (for one grand prize winner)
• HDTV package [a $2,500 value] (for three first prize winners – one from each category)
• Flip UltraHD camcorder [a $199.99 value] (for three second prize winners – one from each category)
So what are you waiting for? Join in now!

Imagination~!
Technically, though, it isn't exactly life, because, well, it's still merely a bunch of drawings put together. But, well, close enough~ After all, life is just a bunch of moments put together, right? :D Or wait. Do I just need to get a life or something? Well, moving on...
Remember the invisible monsters from Ga-Rei Zero?
Those are class ones though, the class B one looks like a bad CG of a large fire type pokemon and it ROLLS. Seriously. Anyway, so there were these invisible monster-like creatures in Ga-Rei who could only be seen by special people or by ordinary people wearing special equipment. However, the ordinary people who could only see them through the special equipment stuff can't really see them all that clearly. Yep, nothing beats natural vision, my friends.
Anyway, I recently (well... weeks ago...) caught up in watching Full Metal Alchemist and I met the real form of Envy-san.
I thought it was amazing! Not because it was amazing in itself, but because even before watching Ga-Rei, in one of my useless imagination moments, I was thinking of a similar concept for a story that will, of course, never materialize in this side of reality. I thought a pretty good villain would be a combination of the Ga-Rei pokemon, I mean, well, whatever they were, and Envy. These monsters would be invisible, but yes, they can be seen through special equipment, but they wouldn't be clear. But to those who can see them, they will be horrible and heart-wrenching at the same time because they will look somewhat like Envy, like a bunch of humans slapped together and they will, in fact be humans. The humans that the creature has consumed, or should I say, assimilated into its being.
Isn't it a cool enemy? It will look horrible, and repulsive, but at the same time, it will be made of humans, some of whom will still be alive, by the way, but will be in terrible suffering, and there will be no way to save them, so they will have to die with the enemy creature. It will make way for dilemmas and stuff like that. :D
And then here it is! Sure, these are two separate animes, but I guess it means there was some worth to my random thoughts. Heeheehee... I can actually think up stuff that may just sell to people. I'm pretty amazed.
Anyway, just another useless record of my thoughts slapped on this
Well, then, my blog, see you again when I see you!
Erm. Standard disclaimers apply. Etc...!

I lost count. Oh, heavens, forgive me. Etc.
Anyway, this time it's about visual talking again. It's certainly something... unique. Well, it's one of those "things" so maybe it's time to sit back and watch just how far the images-words combo can fly in the sky of internet fame and fortune. :D
Well, that's all for now. Stay alive, my

Earlier in this century, Asbestos was widely used for various industrial purposes. Unbenknownst to the workers, this substance would one day lead them to their deaths. While many uses of asbestos has already been banned in many countries, the aftereffects of the usage of it in earlier years aren't completely gone.
Mesothelioma is a cancer most commonly diagnosed in people of have been exposed to asbestos earlier in their life, mostly due to their working circumstances. It targets the mesothelium, a membrane that covers and protects most of our internal organs. After this, it quickly spreads to the organs themselves, most commonly, the lungs and the liver. This cancer is very difficult to detect in its early stages and is only detected usually only when the cancer is already in a very serious stage. People who are diagnosed with Mesothelioma are usually told that they probably have only one more year to live.
There is also another disease caused by asbestos exposure called asbestosis. While this disease is not related to and will not lead to cancer, it is still a serious condition as it affects the lungs of the person.
Quite a number of families are affected emotionally because of a loved one being diagnosed with the abovementioned conditions. If not for their being exposed to asbestos, their lives may have been very different. They should therefore fight for what could have been and assert their rights as victims. For more information, please go to: Mesothelioma Lawyer.
What in the world is a Prince Dictionary?
Lemme continue with this Kaname Jun business as (1) the last post was probably a failure, and (2) I need another post. Pretty much (2) makes this a failure as well, but whatever. I did put effort into the images for this post! My dedication, if nothing else, is real and solid. o/
This is a pretty cool photo
I think I first saw Kaname Jun in Ryuusei no Kizuna. I think. Or maybe MY PACE PV. But, uhh, I think I recognized him when I saw the MY PACE PV so, it has to be Ryuusei even though Ryuusei came later. Besides, my first memories of MY PACE are associated with dancing stuffed toys and all, so.... lalala~
Front view this time. And NICE coat, bro.
I don't really have much to say about him since I don't really know much about him. He's an actor. Uhh, yeah, unnecessary.
This is another pretty cool photo.
Hmm, what else... Ah, I guess something that you wouldn't find on his profile pages in English is that apparently, he really likes games and fishing. This is according to the 5LDK thingy he guested in. As I don't really understand or speak Japanese, there is only so much I can extract from videos without translations.
Looks like another cool coat, bro, and it's like FREAKING RED. O_O
There are also interviews in Moonrunes all over the net, but I am less than a moron when it comes to Moonrunes, and dictionary-TLing is very tiring, so pretty much, I haven't extracted anything from those either. Ah, except for some page where they showed pictures of him in a car
and pictures of pasta with herbs and some fishing stuff.
Putting my unparalleled logic to use, I deduce that the fishing stuff are there because as said in 5LDK, he likes fishing. The pasta pic was there because according to english profile stuff, he likes cooking.
I also have a hunch that he's this rich kid type who just ended up being an actor since he was scouted. He would have probably led a completely happy and successful life even if he didn't become an actor.
Of course, I am happier that he's an actor because now, I have someone to fangirl over.
Fangirling is pretty hard at times.
But the rewards
can be pretty rewarding~ It's a silly kind of light fluffy laughter that comes from nowhere and will probably lead to nowhere in the long run.
But that is the essence of fangirling. The uselessness of it. It has no substance or shape.
It is therefore indestructible. NYAHAHAHA.
Well, the second time I saw him, was in Oya-koukou play. But that was me youtubing already.
It is really rather sad that I can't find any good copies of this thing, much less translations, but even without those, you can kind of tell that it's a comedy show.
The ending theme of this show is pretty serious, and pretty nice. :D There's actually one youtube clip that had translations. Not great, but not bad.
I also saw him in Casshern and Tatta Hitotsu no Koi. And, as mentioned in a previous post, in Atashinchi no Danshi. I've also checked out RESCUE, but it hit me as a bit too dramatic and serious and pretty unrealistic. :( (Well, Atashinchi is unrealistic and has drama moments that are uberdramatic, but it's like COMEDY, so...)
WOW, this is the last unrelated image I have! \o/
So for now, next up on my list are Kimi Hannin Ja Nai Yo Ne?
and Himitsu no Hanazono.
And at last, I have run out of images!
DONE AND DONE! \o/

This one's about hair... Hmm. I do like hair and playing with it, but not so much for the result as for the fun in just playing. Haha. I don't normally have just anyone cut my hair unless already totally necessary, but I guess I should get used to having people I don't know touch my head and cut my hair since I won't really have the chance to go home as much if I actually begin to LIVE and all. Lalalala~
So, it's only been dNeero lately and there's another dNeero I'm supposed to put up. But before that, I guess I should make a sort of proper entry.
This is a Japanese Live-Action show I've recently tried watching. I wouldn't call it special, but as I have recently learned the meaning of fangirling, it ends up being special anyway.
LALALALALA~
In this show, Horikita Maki is a poor homeless girl who is suddenly taken in as the wife of a very rich, kind-of-old man in exchange for him paying her 100M yen debt. Then after one month, the rich guy dies. So she is left to deal with his 6 sons and take upon the challenge of fulfilling the seemingly endlessly growing list of conditions in this scroll thingy contract she signed with the naivete unbelievably uncharacteristic of someone who has been looking out for herself in N years since her mother died and her jerk dad (who is actually the one who accumulated the 100M yen debt) left them.
tl;dr: kind of reverse harem story but she's like officially the mom, so wthlol. then again, it's kind of japan, so lolwth.
That prolly didn't make as much sense as I would've wanted it too, but then again, being that way, it just matches up with the mood of this show more. :D HAHA.
So lemme put up screens of the 6 sons from the first episode. :)
Adorable kid!! He makes me think of Conan, lol.
Hikikomori-kun. :3
He's not supposed to be gay, amazingly. o_O
It's Mayama! Hahaha.
Gangster type, pretty complete menu here.......
KANAME JUN~~!!! KYAA!! HEART <3>
Etc.
One more time.
KANAME JUN!!! Kyaaaaa~!!! <3>
Hmm... Not very good at fangirl blogging. -_-'
I do enjoy watching the guy though!
"GEEMU... DAISUKI DESU."
Funny guy. :P
His role in Atashinchi no Danshi seems pretty serious though... But he hasn't really been shown much and just when the end of episode 4 kind of shows some promise of more Fuu, well, it ends and my download of 1 GIGABYTE episode 5 isn't done yet. The HD ones are even bigger. D: Do want, can't have. :(
I just realized I didn't mention the title of the show until the previous paragraph. Well, whatever~
This should be enough for a dNeero break post. :D
