This is the homepage form the first makeover.

influence82's Where House

   Hello, my real name is Kenneth Cheung. I live in a suburban city called Arcadia, which is near Los Angeles, CA. I currently attend Pasadena City College. I have two screen names I use when I go on the internet: kennethcheung1 and influence82. I prefer influence82 because I like to influence people for the better. I use this website do business (which is what a .com is for). I will sell anything, but for practical purposes, I simply display certain things which are easy to manage. 

    I have a few hobbies. I like playing Magic: the Gathering TCG, watching Japanese anime, and doing lots of running. Have stuff like cards and Chinese weapons (which I know how to use!). You can contact me via email (influence82@yahoo.com)  or Yahoo! Instant Messenger (influence82), or MSNM (kennethcheung1@hotmail.com). Let us see what I have:

OPEN THE DOORS

8/9/2002 Winds of change
Remember, I love to hear your input regarding my website. You are free to give me any questions, comments or threats regarding my site. My site will experience another makeover on August 18, so stay tuned!. My suspension from magic ends officially on August 19, when the fall semester begins. Anyways, the Honda Civic, Alhambra residence, and Monterey Park office are still available, so please tell me if someone is interested. Recently, I have been getting a lot of calls for that Alhambra house. It sure is a hot property. Also, I acknowledge that there is a Odyssey Block Constructed Magic tournament on August 18 at 12pm in the Treasure Island store. If you have questions, then contact me. 
8/2/2002 Extension and anticipation
As part of my suspension, I took apart 15 of my MTG decks. However, I do plan to remake them as my suspension ends August 12. Most of the time, remade decks work better than modified decks because I start with a fresh idea and make the deck based on a whole. August 12, 2002 is also the day I will do another makeover on the site, so stay tuned! The next section I will add is the about me section, which will be unlike anything you probably have never seen before.  Also, I have to extend the deadline for the Honda Civic because I am advertising it in the Recycler classified paper and they will not run the ad until August 2. Thus, the deadline will extend to August 9. I would also like to announce that I have two properties for rent: a residential home in Alhambra, and an office suite in Monterey Park. If you would like details on that, then please contact me. I will go to Treasure Island on Friday, August 2, 2002 at 1pm. If someone does not show up, then I will make another attempt on Saturday, August 3.
7/27/2002 Finally, a signature
Thanks to Shawn, I have a place to put my signature. I will display it wherever I go. Basically, a signature is an identifier. I also give thanks to Morparx for creating it, for it looks beautiful. Do not forget that the Honda Civic is is still up; I will advertise in the Recycler as well. I hope not to let the auto wreckers scrap it, but I must get rid of it. In addition, Benson has joined my affiliates in My Favorite Websites page. In mid-August, all these updates will be put in a future archives page.
7/26/2002 Scrap and Sign
After the tragic events of July 18, I have become depressed, and now I seek redemption. Me and my new car are separated, and I am forced to drive a dreaded American car (the infamous Ford Escort). I do not plan to visit my friend in Alhambra ever again.  I also need to focus on my studies and future as well, hence the Magic: the Gathering suspension will continue until mid-August, when my fall semester begins at the college. Also, I have decided to scrap my Honda Civic for sale in a week to an auto wrecking company because I am unable to sell it (or people are unable to buy it). Thus, the price of the vehicle will drop to a negotiable $200 for this week. It is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I liked that car because it was small and easy to drive. I will miss it, though others will not. In addition, I also have a new graphical signature that I can post to my various internet interfaces. Once I can get a host to upload it, then I will debut it to the world (Geocities cannot host images for others to see). I will also use this signature in my upcoming "About Me" page. There are also additional ways to contact me, for I had to use AIM out of necessity. 
7/21/2002 TGI Friday 
It is very rare of me to not do what I said I will do, and I apologize on that. Friday, July 26 is the day I will go to T.I. at around 1pm. I can assure you that. I will bring whatever I have that day to see whoever shows up and trade. As for my car, it got hit while I was playing Magic late at night at my friend's house. Thus, I feel pretty bad about it for giving myself such circumstances that may have let this tragic even unfold.
7/18/2002 Suspension LS
LS is short for life sucks, for my car got hit and disabled while it was parked in Alhambra. Parked! Thus, I will have to take a mandatory suspension of one month in part because of the disability and in part to discipline myself. I may, if possible still go to Treasure Island, but only for the purpose of delivering cards on the the 19th day of July, 2002 (Friday). I will not play at all for one month. I will continue working with this website until after I finish my college personal statement. Meanwhile, please watch the wishlist for updates. And thanks for visiting.
7/17/2002 Okay, Okay
Sorry for not being present on the 15th of July. However. I will go to Treasure Island on Friday, July 19, 2002 after 12 pm guaranteed. I am thinking of posting either a decklist page or an "about me" page. If you have some suggestions, then let me know.
7/14/2002
Whenever you see an update, it is safe to assume that the wishlist updated as well, so I will not put that wishlist link on anymore, since it is on this page too many times. Also, I may go to Treasure Island on July 14 and 15 after 1pm, but will make my stay as short as possible.
7/6/2002 OTJ
I added some Odyssey block stuff like Devoted Caretaker, Nut Collector, Grim Lavamancer, and Radiate. Please check the wishlist as well. Remember that I can accept any of the cards on the page, not just the cards under my name, for I can trade with those people later on. Thus, if you have anything on that entire page, then let me know. Also, I will not participate in paying any more drafts for Magic: the Gathering, so you cannot persuade me to draft anymore until next June, 2003 assuming I will still be available (I am supposed to go to a far college by then). Also, I enjoy any criticism you may have about my website: it is always helpful.  
7/4/2002 PROJECT: FACE OFF
I did a project two years ago called PROJECT: FACE OFF for the Magic: the Gathering card game. Now it is on my website. It was very interesting to do, entirely for fun and curiosity. If you want to see what I thought about it, then feel free to check it out. As usual, the wishlist is updated. I will go to Treasure Island Saturday, July 6, 2002.
6/28/2002 Apologies
My apologies for not notifying to you that I was taking a suspension from Magic: the Gathering for academic reasons. Next time I will post here if I plan to vanish for a while. The wishlist has an organized look to it, that way, you guys can trade with each other without making me get your cards for you. The Next time I will go to Treasure Island is Sunday, June 30, 2002. As reminder, I really dislike it if you get a card that you asked me to get and later  get the card without telling me right away by email. If I get a card you no longer want, then it pisses me off. Depending on the value of the card I had to get, you may end up on my "NO" list, which means I may never deal with you again, ever. Now I am stuck with a Cephalid Constable. Also, I placed the anime in the doors as part of the regular website.
6/14/2002 Odyssey, Torment, Judgment
Finally, it is here. You asked for it, you got it. The Magic: the Gathering TCG page now has the Odyssey block. As I get more cards, I will add to those lists. Also. I changed the wishlist so it is more compatible to my style.
6/11/2002 High demand
I added a lot more cards to the wishlist than deleted. This means I may do some heavy trading this week. You may see me at Treasure Island this Saturday at around 3pm. Remember, I only draft Odyssey, Torment, and Judgment together. I may post some deck lists if there any of you request that I do, but I will work on the Odyssey block pages first.
6/06/2002 The usual 
The wishlist is updated, so please help me get those cards. Also, the Magic: the Gathering TCG section is very updated. Usually, I just delete cards off the list and rarely add cards. For example, I added a Treachery and Nightscape Familiar recently, but none of you probably noticed. Unfortunately, I am quite busy with other things such as work and school, so I cannot spend much quality time on Magic anymore until I meet my quotas. I will still go to Treasure Island Saturday, June 8, 2002 at 4pm, though. I do keep promises, so you can trust me on that.
6/02/2002 New deck for me
I want to make a black/white cheap deck that is anti-type 2 (my usual style). See if you can help me by looking at my wishlist. I also drafted for my first time in one year. Soon you may see the Odyssey block on my list whenever I gain the time to compile it. I am actually waiting for my collection to grow larger as well.
5/27/2002 The too-good priest
I apologize to you people who thought I had a Priest of Titania. Frankly, I traded off the card over four months ago, sorry for the inconvenience.
5/20/2002 Anime
Finally, the anime list is up. You cans see what I have (not much yet) and if you want any, then contact me and I will do what I can. Also, if you have any anime on my wishlist, then I would like to get it, too. In Magic, the Hell's Caretaker deck my friend originally wanted did not work because you could only use the Caretaker's ability once per upkeep, so there is no infinite loop with it and Intruder Alarm. 
04/24/2002 Affiliate
The wishlist has been updated as usual. Also, I added an affiliate in My Favorite Websites page. He is a colleague of mine who also likes anime. In addition bootleg, gave me advice to make the tables into percentages instead of pixels. I hope it is easier for you to view my website that way. 
04/21/2002 Chicken Deck
The wishlist has been updated. My friend, for some odd reason, wants to make a chicken deck, using mostly unglued cards. If you have some unglued cards, then please take a look at the list and see if you are willing to part with those cards. Also, if you have any suggestions on making a chicken deck, then please send me an email.
Update
I decided to copy other people and put an update bulletin. The reason is because it is convenient for my friends to see if I have anything new or not, to save their time. Now I have wishlist in "The Doors" page, but it has only the MTG cards  I need. If you have any of those cards available for me, then please let me know.
