About me: I'm Rowan Xavier Zurich. Oh come on, that's just a pseudonym, don't worry. I won't place my real name on cyberspace. I am a smart, philosophy-interested boy. I use my blog as a deposit for my thoughts and ideas when I can't fit them in my head. Sometimes, I use it for telling my stories (I'm a writer). Feel free to dawdle mindlessly into my own thoughts! Haha!

Rowan on dancing, blog layouts, and updates on Farrellion
Ah, Sunday evening. Again, I'm squeezing every possible time I can have before I go back to Los Baños tomorrow. And what better way to get a sense of fulfillment than to blog on my almost-one-year-old blog!

Speaking of blog birthdays, a very happy birthday to Notes of An Abrupt Mental Diarrhea, Ms. Anne's blog!

Anyways, remember one of my first posts? The one where I seeked for help in getting a layout for this wordbattle arena? Well, I'm raising that alert again. Please, if anyone can make me a layout for this blog, please contact me through the chatbox or email me. Need serious and professional help here, people. I want to treat this blog on its first birthday, since it's the only one that lasted for more than a month!

Ever since I saw the movie Step Up 2: The Streets,

Where'd Jenna Dewan go? Sure, Channing Tatum had a cameo, but why didn't he stay for the whole movie?

and the videos of ACDC versus M&M Cru With a U,



I've been dancing a lot. Yeah, I've tried to breakdance as well, but I fear that I might break my neck. Still, my sisters are really noticing that everytime I play upbeat tunes on the computer, they would see me poppin', lockin', and droppin' (Normally, it's Kuya TeeJay's thing, but I wanna do it, too!). Even in my dorm, when Betong isn't home (which is, well, almost all the time) and Amiel and Kuya TeeJay aren't in the room, I go dancing. And it doesn't stop there! Sometimes, my blockmates and DEVC10 classmates would catch me freestyling in class, sometimes even without music. Yup, too much sugar (and too much of The Streets) can do this to you.

Next, Farrellion is improving greatly! I've created three new c0ncepts: the Nazhering, the Dragumanes, and the Spirit Minotaurs.

The Nazherings are gigantic dragonflies. They are mostly pets of the Irmvazhen. I've noticed that dragonflies appear everytime it's gonna rain (thanks to Mikki!). They act as weathermen to the Irmvazhen. When there's rain, there's heavy clouds. Heavy clouds mean not much moon exposure. No moon means no strength to the Irmvazhen. The Irmvazhen use these gigantic creatures as steeds when they need to conserve their strength or when they need to fly. That's why the D'Goustax Empire does its best to destroy them, since the Irmvazhen would be disabled without them.

The Dragumanes are extremely rare people (yes, they're humaniod sometimes). They are actually a subrace to the Irmvazhen. They cannot go through lycanthropy until they're 25 years old. On their 25th birthday, they immediately transform not into werewolves, but into weredragons. They're really rare for three reasons: some Irmvazhen cults kill them because they are deemed as curses to the clan, they have very weak biological resistance to diseases, and they are well-hidden. One of the main characters (I'm not gonna say if he's on the good or bad side) is a Dragumane.

The Spirit Minotaurs are rare beings. One Spirit Minotaur lives in extremely hard-to-reach places (most likely a dangerous place). When you do find one, he will become your personal servant, and he will grant you three wishes (yes, like genies). A word of caution, though: once you reveal to others that you found a Minotaur, you'll become a minotaur yourself, and you have to live in a place harder to reach than the place where you found your Minotaur. Minotaurs are also sneaky; they actually will try to kill you, had it not been for their incapability of free will. Still, they have to do your every bidding.

I'll provide scans of Mikki's sketches of these characters next time. Right now, I have to sleep. Au revoir, arrivedencci, auf wiedershen. Rowan Out.
