A Bambina's musings

Gokusen the movie. Ryu. ♥

2009-11-19T22:07:00.006+08:00

>Today, I went to GV at Tampines Mall, bought movie tickets, and actually sat through the entire movie despite my prior expectations regarding it before watching. What movie is it you ask?

Well, the movie is none other than GOKUSEN THE MOVIE, which aired in July 11 last summer in Japan.

Having watched Season 2 of Gokusen, and having only done it because of the presence of Akame, I was dubious about the movie and the overall result it would bring, considering the fact that Gokusen is a repeatedly re-used cycle that goes on over and over again. Deliquent kids, one fiesty teacher. They get into trouble. She does all she can to help them. They get touched and open up their hearts to her. There's sparkly sunshine and rainbows. She goes on to help more such kids in other classes. AND IT REPEATS. OVER AND OVER AGAIN. :\ Can anyone say, "cliche"?

...But surprisingly, the movie didn't have the same effect on me. Maybe because it was I was blinded by the shini-ness of a stellar cast, namely, Kamenashi Kazuya, Oguri Shun, Teppei, Miura Haruma and the works. Or maybe because I didn't sleep enough. Either way, I was pleasantly surprised by the movie. Not in the sense that the plot improved. (Because believe me, it HASN'T. LOLZ.) But because of the fact that it took the right direction and input much more comedic elements into it. The entire movie was full of hilarity. Starting from the beginning where Yankumi reprimands and reduces plane hjiackers to a sobbing wreck (LOL) to the end where she plays games with her students and gets her head whacked in the process.

And Sawatari, what can I say. THAT MAN IS A GENIUS. XDDD. I absolutely loved his facial expressions and the robotic sounds they added in between. I couldn't stop laughing throughout the entire time he was onscreen. BRILLANCY AT IT'S FINEST. XD.

Oh and of course, the main reason why I sat through the 121 minutes of movie film.

ODAGIRI RYU. *_*

MOTORBIKES AND BLACK LEATHER GLOVES NEVER LOOKED SO GOOD. ♥ And a;sdjsls- RYU.

In overall, I really enjoyed watching Gokusen the movie inspite of the lack of plot. But it is a movie that should be taken with a grain of salt and kept in mind that plot < IKEMEN. And comedic relief.

Lastly, I should end off my spam with the *sparkly* Odagiri sensei. <3

Contemplation revolving around me

>You know that feeling of having done something wrong even when you thought you were right all along? Well, it's kind of bugging me now. Maybe, just maybe I could have dealt with things differently.

>Perhaps I thought I was subtle, but I wasn't. The issue might look resolved on the surface but in the fact, the roots of the problem still lie intact. I should have been more open about it and said what I felt but I didn't.

One thing can't change though. It's the fact that I didn't sell her out even when I knew she did something wrong. I could have and I could have benefitted from it but I didn't. Instead, I gave a friendly warning and that is all I will do.

Ohh, save me from the clutches from money sucking fandom

AKANISHI JIN TO BE FEATURED IN CRYSTAL KAY'S NEW ALBUM WITH A SONG TRACK TITLED "HELPLESS NIGHT"

a;shslosedh- *______* Eeeeeee. This is so terribly exciting. Apparently, it has been advertised all over yahoo.co.jp that it is a whole new level of classic duet with the beautiful harmony of Crystal Kay's clear voice and Akanishi Jin's beautiful vocals. a;sjwo- Oh my god. I am so excited I can't breathe. It's a pity that it wasn't the song, Wonder that was released but I am still happy that Jin finally has a new project besides BANDAGE.

Now, I am struggling between whether or not to purchase Crystal Kay's new album just for that song alone. Dies*

Because I have loved you and maybe I'd always will.

2009-08-17T03:42:00.004+08:00

KAMENASHI KAZUYA IS A FREAKING TEASE. al;shds-*_______*

I'm dying from his new solo performance alone. Being a tease in the first part and singing a ballad in the next. ;______; And making mistakes and trying to resist laughing. Oh god. When the DVD comes out, I am getting it no matter what.

Though my heart is pained by the sight of him coughing as well as reading fanreports about Jin being sick and struggling to hit all those high notes. Oh, KAT-TUN, I hope they manage to hang in there till the Hokkaido Cons next week. They really need a break after months of touring.

Ninja-ism runs in our blood.

2009-08-05T17:27:00.001+08:00

SERIOUSLY ONE OF THE MOST EPIC FANCAMS OF CONCERTS I HAVE SEEN FOR KAT-TUN. *_______* SUCH A CLOSE DISTANCE, TOO. Fangirls are serious ninjas, really.

Anger management issues

2009-08-04T22:47:00.001+08:00

>There is never a valid reason to vent one's anger at people.

...I just wish people knew and understood that.

A birthday greeting

2009-07-04T21:46:00.003+08:00

Because it's the fourth of july today which means,

HAPPY 25th BIRTHDAY, AKANISHI JIN. ♥♥♥

Never stop amazing me for being who you are and never forgetting where you are from.

Gentleness changes colour every second...

>Happy Easter everyone! ;__________; Thank god for the glorious long weekend. I slept in until 12 plus today, it felt so good. Internship has been depriving me of sleep lately, it's kind of sickening. ): But fandom on the other hand, has been good. I am really (Shockingly) addicted to the song, "1582" by Kamenashi Kazuya though. :O A big shocker since I am usually more of a Jin fan when it comes to KAT-TUN.

1582 - 亀梨和也

>The song has a very dark feel to it and the lyrics are very thought provoking. Well, apparently, since it's technically a "suicide" reminiscent kind of song. It's actually written from the prespective of Mori Ranmaru. Ranmaru was Nobunaga's assistant and he was said to have had an intimate "relationship” with Oda Nobunaga. Cough cough* And since Oda Nobunaga died in the year 1582 and happens to be Kame's favourite historical character, hence the song title, "1582" was given to match the year he died of ritual seppuku. :O

...Hence, the intense lyrics and dark musical elements of the song. I really love the chorus and the "I'm always always caught in those hands" part. It's very invoking and passionate and suits the forbidden love theme.

Song Lyrics-

I'm being controlled, till my fingertips
Enraptured, to the point I'm going crazy
I'm starting to be damaged in my head
Me, now, why am I here? Where am I?
The light is disappearing in front of my eyes
Eternal sleep, like dying

Tempting words
Those red lips
This enraptured heart
Leaps, it starts to be torn

Drowning in that blood
I'm getting stained

The eyes facing the boundless land
What are they reflecting?
Somehow, somehow
I'm cought in those hands
As the clockhands ticked together
Biting my inner cheek
“I wish I'll never ever wake up”
Placing the hands on my chest, I pray

Even a heart wounded all over
Seeing you, it heals
It's not something like desire
It's unconscious, even if I know

The medicine that heals
The wounds, does it feel good?
Where has the tomorrow gone?
I'm being charmed, I hate that

Drowning in that blood
I'm getting stained

Dreaming of days with you
The stars got dispersed
“I wish that somehow, somehow, I won't wake up”
Placing the hands on my chest, I pray
I wonder what gentleness is
It changes colors every single second
I'm always, always
Caught in those hands
Caught in this love

Tempting words
Heal the wounds

The eyes facing the boundless land
What are they reflecting?
Somehow, somehow
I'm cought in those hands
As the clockhands ticked together
Biting my inner cheek
“I wish I'll never ever wake up”
Placing the hands on my chest, I pray
Dreaming of days with you
The stars got dispersed
“I wish that somehow, somehow, I won't wake up”
Placing the hands on my chest, I pray
I wonder what gentleness is
It changes colors every single second
I'm always, always
Caught in those hands
Caught in this love

I love you all more than you can count the number of stars in the night sky.

>Internship is slowly and surely eroding me. ;________; Although it's only the first week, I feel so tired out already. :X How am I going to survive another four and a quarter months, I wonder. Oh well.

>Anyway, just posting today because today is KAT-TUN's 3rd year Anniversary as a debuted group. Congratulations, KAT-TUN! And may they bring upon us wonderful wonderful music and PVs and break all expectations as a JE group/band.

Whether be it their previous chibi days-

Or their debuted phase.

Or their current phase.

I love KAT-TUN as a whole and each member is irreplaceable to me. ;________; KAT-TUN, never stop amazing me, whether be it in music direction, projects or over the fact that they used to get into fistfights over whipped cream on the dressing room floors. XD. ILUALL. ♥

Memories like a paper bound novel.

2009-03-15T14:16:00.006+08:00

>Tomorrow's the start of my internship, officially. I am kind of scared, really..Since it's one of my first long jobs and stuff (Most of the roles I have worked as previously only consisted of a few days....=_______=") But yeah, I'll survive! Somehow....Five months....I will really miss everyone at school. ;_____; Fighting, everyone!

>On the issue of fandom, CTKT last wednesday was awesome. *__________* I haven't seen Akame laugh so geninuely together since....2005(?!) I;dk. But it was cute. I loved how both of them were so awkward at first...(I'd bet it sent most of the akame fangirls into a tizzy. LOLOL.)

They looked like they wanted to break into laughter. Cat, got your tongue? ROFL.

>I laughed when Jin went, " We will talk about this" after Kame sabotaged him to dance in front of the guests. Soo threatening. And adorable. Glee*

>Also, why is it so that even in the gay-est hairdos, Jin looks somehow appealing? ;_______;

>And yet another issue of Oricon style I need to get my hands on. The editors are genius. Srsly Amazing.

I don't wanna cry alone~

2009-03-10T15:33:00.004+08:00

>If I had to recommend a song of the month, this would be it. Seriously. *________* afl;shsjdkj- Burning CG-ed roof tops, vigorous dance routines coupled with synthetic dance techno beats with pop elements in between. Thank you, JE. Thank you.

>And did I mention the fact that there are actually FEMALE dancers in the PV also? *_____* I was very happy the last time when they had female backup dancers in their Don't U ever Stop but this made it a whole lot more ecstatic. I mean- tight leather suits and there is actually some interaction between the dancers and KAT-TUN. Okay, it's only for Maru, but it's a start and that's good enough. I am kind of worried initially since they will be facing off with DBSK's single, Survivor tomorrow on the same release date and considering the latter is a pretty established group with an enormous fanbase, it'd be challenging to achieve their usual no 1 spot on the Oricon sales charts. :X

But after watching the PV, I am more confident that they'd be able to do fine tomorrow because the PV is full of awesome. *______* All that dance choreographies and effort put into the sets. Johnny is really going all out for KAT-TUN, eh...First the 7 days Tokyo Dome concert announcement, now the extravagant PV. I fully approve though. XDDD.

I don't wanna cry alone, help me out, search my life, please take me back home- RESCUE; KAT-TUN.

It aids greatly in the production of progresterone you know. XDD;;

2009-03-06T20:14:00.008+08:00

>afsks;dkj-Am I glad I bought the KAT-TUN calendar 2009-2010. ;_________; The pictures of the group interacting and playing twister and chatting, being hosts and best of all, the pictures of Jin playing with a little girl. My heart melted. Wibbles* He'd make a good father.

>No I am serious. Superly adorable. I mean-

AND THIS LAST PICTURE UTTERLY KEELED MY BRAIN CELLS. *________* Umm..

THANK YOU JOHNNY. Thank you for always never failing to steal my money each month. )):

Oh, Yi Jung. Spam worthy kind of post. LOLOL.

2009-02-27T23:39:00.008+08:00

>It figures that I will fall head over heels with a character from an overused, cliched Japanese manga adapted plot where a poor, hardworking girl falls in love with one of the richest, badass guy in the country. Make it four handsome guys. Oh god. Boys over flowers is just getting better and better and I have more motivation to make through the drama then the Japanese version. :XX ~~(I didn't get through the latter because of certain matters. Coughs* Shun. Jun. Coughs* Opps. ): )~~

>I initially didn't think I would watch this, because frankly, I don't like to go for shows that seem overrated. But....Yi Jung aka Kim Bum in real life is so so charming, I couldn't resist. *_______*
I mean-

al;fgskdjl- I love his smile. And I ship SoEul like nobody's business. ;_______; He and Gae Eul make such a cute onscreen couple. I am even more excited about how their relationship will work out as compared to Jun Pyo's and Jan Di's relationship. :DD

>One more smile for the cameras?

>*_______________* Enough said. Definitely worthy of the 3rd title in Mnet's top 100 flower boys list.

>Oh and I bought Sophie Kinsella's new book release: Remember me? at Borders just now. It kind of reminds of the Shopaholic series, just with different characters and stuff. A good guilty indulgence if you ask me. :P

Greetings, ole mateys. :D

Today's the 14th of Feburary everybody, so

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY! ♥♥♥

I hope everyone has a lovely day today, whether be it singles or couples. XD. I decided to change my blog layout yesterday since for some weird reason, blogger was refusing to let me doing spacing in my entries. ): It also messed up my blog layout. Ack. Sorry, for now, I will be using this default layout until I figure out how to work out the kinks in the system.

Went out with Anne yesterday to eat at Fish & Co at Tampines Mall. Overall, it wasn't the best experience and I don't think I will be going back to eat there any soon. Firstly, the waitresses were so difficult to understand (They either spoke with an accent or mumbled.)

And secondly, the portions were so huge and filling and darned expensive. The only thing I remotely didn't mind was the dessert that we shared: Panna Cotta.

Oh and there's this guy Model which I saw on the Urban Newspaper for the Valentine's day special whom I think is cute. *________* Max Malchartzeck, they say. Half Korean and Half German. His girlfriend is pretty too, she's brazillian. What a perfect pair, really. :D

First post of the new year after like a month. ROFL.

2009-02-12T17:11:00.014+08:00

>I can't believe the time passes so fast and tomorrow is the last day of the term before I will be commencing with my study week and then my final exams. :X Personally, I felt this term was tough, both mentally and physically. There were a lot of things that tested my patience and endurance and I had to admit, it wore me thin. Life still goes on though and because life is not a bed of roses, more things like that can only be aloom. The only way to go is to keep going and not looking back. :)

>Been watching a couple of Japanese dramas though and I absolutely love RESCUE, the theme song for Maru's drama, [Rescue]. Rescue is a pretty decent drama as of far, considering I am a big fan of emergency related dramas such as Code Blue and so on. This time though, it's about firefighting and less about the medical aspect. That's what I love about dramas though, it gives an insider approach into professions I'd probably never go into my entire life. Shudders* >___<

>*___________* No to mention the cute which is rescuing a drowning puppy. Aww.

>I was initially pretty excited about Kami No Shizuku at first, because it had wine and was from a famous critically acclaimed manga but I am on episode 05 now and I almost err-Fell asleep halfway. Sorry, Kame. :X However much I learnt about wine in Food and Beverage Fundamentals, there's a limit where I am able to watch Kame decant red wine episode after episode.

(Picture is credit to naxixi of Ktstarry forum and not mine in anyway whatsoever.)

>I wish they gave Kame more roles which challenge his acting skills. I adored his acting in Gokusen 2 and Tatta Hitosu no Koi but lately, there haven't been such drama offers for him. )): Oh well.

>Also watching VOICE which features Eita, Toma and Satomi Ishihara as forensic pathologists who decipher a series of cases behind the death/(s) of several people and learn a new meaning to the "voice" of the dead. If you ask me, something along the lines of CSI really. Pretty good so far. I APPROVE. XD.

Everytime you cry, there will be a smile equivalent of your tears waiting for you. - Care; Akanishi Jin.

Internship resumes and Cover letters are killing me. D:

2008-12-14T16:20:00.003+08:00

>Damn internship. ;____________; If I type another line of, "Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing in to apply for the internship opportunity offered by your company..." I will just....Facepalms* Cover letters and resumes are the most sickening things to do, honestly. I feel like such a big fat liar. D:

>@________@ I am seriously dizzy and way too stressed out by all this crap. So much for holidays. D:

And the lion fell in love with the lamb.

2008-12-13T12:06:00.005+08:00

>How old are you?

Seventeen.

How long have you been seventeen?

A while.

-Bella & Edward; Twilight.

I went to watch the Twilight movie last night and I came away from the movie feeling rather disappointed? I;dk. To me, although Kristen and Robert looked great together as Bella and Edward, they sort of lacked chemistry when they were acting the emotional scenes. :X It just kind of felt stale to me. A lot of scenes in the book; Twilight actually focuses on the development of the relationship of Edward and Bella. The movie tried to follow that but they sort of made it faster and cut out some parts and yeah... :X Personally I think I preferred the book. ):

>Lacking of chemistry aside, Doctor Carlise was so handsome. *___________* Doki doki* When Robert or he came onscreen, the girls in the audience would squeal. I want to thump them so badly. XDD;; Like, "No screaming and just watch and drool in peace, prz." D:

>And I am absolutely pissed at the fact that they made Jasper look like an idiot in the movie. :X He's one of my favourite characters after reading Eclipse and making him look a guy who is in pain all the time kind of just...bah.

>Either way, I am amused that Golden Village and Cathay have started showing the movie even before December 18th because seriously, this is so sneaky. :O If not for the fact that Anne wanted to watch the day the earth stood still, we woukd have never known that twilight had already started showing. Facepalms*

I spam for random. Don't let me eat you up. XD.

2008-11-07T21:38:00.003+08:00

> Finally. It's a friday. I feel so sluggish and worn out from school. D: Projects and SSM are killing me. Soon, our school restaurants will be starting operations and I really hope I don't mess up. Even if I am only just the outdoor sales respresentative. :X

>On the other hand, I am addicted to BOA's Eat U up single. *O* Darn, I always seem to not be able to resist fast, hip hop-ish tunes. :O The lyrics are a little...suggestive and provocative but I absolutely love the dance choreography in the asian version PV.

>LOL. Looks like I am going back to my roots way before I liked Tenimyu and then JE. XDD. Amazing.

Bored so am spamming.

2008-10-27T18:09:00.003+08:00

>School is surely and slowly eating me up inside. D: I feel so de-motivated to do any of my tutorials and I keep procrastinating and side tracking. Oh well.

>At least I have dramas and TV shows to keep me sane and entertained. I am currently watching a few now, but out of all I think, the best two are still Bloody Monday and Ryusei no Kizuna.

>I'm on episode 3 of Bloody Monday now and I am loving every minute of it. Although this show does not have such a stellar cast as RNK, but Miura Haruma alone is enough, really to sustain my interest. And the plot intrigues me for the moment. A potential IT drama of the season if you ask me. :D

>Ryusei No Kizuna...Well frankly, the book was much better in my opinion. The drama had too many crossovers between present and past and messed up the chronological order. And it was a bit too comedic like for my taste. :X But then again, I enjoy watching Ryo transform into different characters and Nino freaking out as the eldest brother. Gah, so cute. *_____*

RL sucks my soul away. :X And fandom isn't helping.

2008-10-18T11:32:00.003+08:00

> I don't know what to make of RL and fandom anymore. D: I mean, firstly, my timetable is hell of a sucky. Three days of finishing school at 6pm, one of which I only go to school for two hours (Tuesday) and the other which I work the entire day for SSM from 8am to 4pm before proceeding to lecture which ends at 6pm. (Monday) D: I think my least favourite day of the week this term will definitely be Monday. :X And the fact that we are placed in different classes. Again. So happy. Not. :X Just when I was getting along with everyone from my class. Oh well.

>On the bright side, at least I have Preeti and Kelly to accompany me this time as classmates; as compared to the last semester when I was all alone and didn't know anyone. : Anne and Shu Hui are in different classes from me again though. Fate doesn't seem to like us, really.

>Fandom wise...Well...I hate the fact that KAT-TUN has almost zero new activities whatsoever since August and the in it's place, loads of gossip and rumors are surfacing. I don't care about whether Akanishi/Nishiyama Maki went out together or stuff. I want real news. REAL SINGLE/ALBUM RELEASES. Not just spectulation. Sighs* Where art thou, Johnny? Prz to be giving them more work.

>And...About Nishiyama Maki. I used to think she was pretty decent/sweet but now after reading her multiple blog posts about all those Jin fans leaving nice comments on her blog entries and she feeling so grateful about it; going, "Thank you everyone! I love you all, you are so warm!" and her insistence that she and Jin are just really good friends...It just kind of pisses me off. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And lay on the maple syrup and strawberries while you're at it, will yah? Look, if they are supposedly dating or "just friends" like they claim, (Everyone knows that the term, "Just friends" is utter bull in such cases) it's still not very nice to keep posting about it in your blog, isn't it, Maki? D: I would have thought that a low key profile would be a sensible approach when you're dating with ANAN number 3 top male artist of the year. Not only to protect Jin's privacy but her own. On the other hand, she's a model. And models aren't exactly the brightest creatures on this earth, aren't they? LOL.

>But she doesn't. Instead she posts about it. And several times too. It kind of makes me wonder what her true intention is. Because the way she is acting now reminds of what Rena (Junno's rumoured girlfriend) is doing now. Deliberately posting about him* and openly talking about them (Even though it is against JE company policy to do so. I mean, look, even Shirota Yuu who is a good friend of Jin does not mention his name directly in his blog entries.) Maki as his girlfriend?/ friend? could obviously do the same? Either way, I am getting a weird vibe from this girl now and I don't think she's as sweet as she previously seemed. D: I could be wrong, because this is Jin I am talking about and I don't think I can be unbiased when it comes to judging the girl. But I am not a fan of her now. Neither am I a hater. I am just someone who doesn't really think she's that innocent as she seems. Coughs*

>I wonder why. I never had any opinions about Jin rumored girlfriends in the past till now. :X Oh well. I think I take my fandom too seriously. I am becoming deluded. LOLLLLL.

>The only thing I can say now is that whatever decision Jin makes with Maki, I'd support it. It's his life after all and there's a thin line between caring for your idol and overdoing it by being posessive of him and flaming who he dates. If that's what makes him truly happy. I say, go for it! Besides, Jin is hardly the type to ever settle down with someone sensible does he? It makes me feel as if he's rushing too fast into commitment. =________=" Sighs* Oh well.

Like WHUT. :O LOL.

2008-10-15T13:12:00.004+08:00

>I am shocked beyond words at this point. I mean- Leah Dizon, the girl who has smitten numerous JE boys like Ryo and alike; is pregnant and getting married. (Yes. Precisely in that order.) Snorts*

How creepily ironic is that she happened to design an entire set of bridal gowns line a few months back prior to this shocking announcement yesterday about her marriage. 0_____o Oh well. I guess all the Leah haters can put their hate to rest now since she's commited and plus she has a baby. ROFL. I am amused because you would think there is such a thing called contraception. :X Not like I care much anyway, am not much of a Leah fan. Frankly, I think she's kind of overrated. =______=" And no, it's not because of the smitten je boys thingy. It's more of the lack of singing talent. Coughs*

>On the other hand- I think the current ViVi model that Yamapi has been rumored to be dating is kind of hot.

Chikako Watanabe is her name. Ohhh, interesting. She looks more like the type Jin would go for. But still- Hot. I like her eyes. She's got a bit of a latin-spanish look to her appearance.

Strangely and surprisingly! LOL. Jin is the one this time to be dating a completely Japanese girl with no mixed roots whatsoever. I am shocked. ROFL. Oh well. I think Nishiyama Maki is cute. Not pretty, but just cute. For some reason, I am not really impressed and won over by her as compared to some of Jin's previously rumored girlfriends. =_____=" But it's nice to see Jin date someone Japanese for a change.

>Oh gawd. I swear I nearly jumped out of my skin just now when the thunder sounded. 0_____o It was really loud.

RL makes me wonder if my sanity will be intact. D:

2008-10-14T21:52:00.003+08:00

>RL is being such a pain now and fandom isn't helping at all with it being so dead. D: My new term is about to start in less than four to five days and I already feel tired for all the rushing about. Rushing about to collect my service skills management waitress uniform and name tag, rushing to buy a wine opener (Waiter's friend style) and even having to suffer through the pain of getting a typhoid inoculation injection. ): Argh. Such a pain. I haven't even started the subject and I already have to get so many things ready. Like the hell anyone cares about getting incoculated against Typhoid. The government is really....Facepalms* Oh well. That probably means the poor waiter/waitresses serving all over in this country had to go through that injection. I am not alone in my pain. :X

>Also, my mum is being such a prat. D: Like it's not enough she has to constantly breathe over my back about doing the household chores her way; I have to also listen to her rattle on and on about my elder sister going out with her boyfriend and how awful that is. =____________=" LIKE ARGH. DO I CARE. DD: Just leave them alone. They are of legal age already, for goodness sake.

>On the other hand, I started watching a new drama that aired recently called Bloody Monday. Technically they only aired the first episode yesterday but I already am loving it. :D I mean, hacker! genius Haruma Miura and terrorists unleashing viruses to mass murder people in the show. Ohh, interesting. XD. Looks like I have another drama to chase besides Ryusei no kizuna that is airing this friday.

Pin is the ultimate medicine to everything.

2008-10-10T12:08:00.004+08:00

>Gah. *________* a;fskd;j- Indeed, just reading about the Pin in Yamapi's jweb entries can really make a girl's day.

>Cruising together in the car, composing songs together, waiting for each other while they eat sushi and ramen separately. Oh, my heart. ♥ Why are Yamapi and Jin so cute together-Oh gosh, the kizuna. I am such an easy fangirl to please. But honestly, I find it amusing that Pin are so domesticated, drawing bathwater for each other; mock complaining yet still doing it. If I read anymore of these little pin thingies, I might just have a seizure-LOL.

>Either way-For all the lovely Pin in the universe-

Banzai~! Kame approves. (Okay, I know that was random, but the gif was so appropriate, I couldn't resist.)

And this week's ctkt. Gosh- ;_______; Honestly, why are the boys so cute. Wrestling each other to answer quiz questions, Jin shooting Kame brief smug glances of "Hah! I answered it and you didn't-" and-

>IS THERE NO END TO HIS CUTENESS. *_____________*

>Lastly-I find this strangely appropriate. Weird, strange. But fitting.

>Kame looking at a Kame. ROFLLLLLLLLLL.

(Please note: The above GIFS are credit to vandi714 of Livejournal and not mine in anyway whatsoever. :X)

> It's October 7th today, and almost two years since I first got to know him through Prince of Tennis. Even though I am no longer interested in Tenimyu and stuff and I am really outdated on any of his information...I sincerely wish him a happy 24th birthday. :)

HAPPY 24TH BIRTHDAY, KATO KAZUKI~!

>On the other hand, just saw the cover of his supposed 2009 calendar. *________* a;dfskdj- Lovely. I won't buy it though because I am broke from previously buying the KAT-TUN calendar. Fandom is a serious money bleeding business. :X

>I am seriously bored out of my wits though. D: My younger sister's friends are over at our place supposedly to do a "project" but all they have done is just to create noise in my opinion. ;________; And I can't even watch the DVD I burnt because they are in the living room. Sighs and goes back to watching the last episode of Change*

>Honestly. I think Takuya Kimura can wear anything and still look hot. LOL.

I love being random. See if you can beat me. XD.

2008-10-03T16:34:00.003+08:00

>I am absolutely bored out of my wits at home. :X I actually wanted to check the timings for the Hana Yori Dango movie so I could ask Debs and LT when they were free to go watch but I realised they took down the showtimes already, which means that the cinemas have all stopped airing it. DD: Woe. Looks like I just have to wait till the DVD is out then. Ditto for the Kurosagi movie.

>I know this is completely random and out of the blue but-

I absolutely adore this watch. *__________* I have something similar to this at home but the straps are worn out and of course, the price tag is not as hefty as the one above. I mean. Us$365,000. ;________; Headsdesk*

>Oh and yesterday's CTKT made me laugh so hard. The producers are definitely S. Not surprising, considering the things they make them do. But balloon inflating game. XDD. Jin and Maru were geninuely frightened. I love their reactions.

>I love how Maru is screaming like a maniac in the second round and Jin is desperately holding/sucking in his breath to which Koki remarked, " YOU DON'T HAVE TO SUCK IN YOUR BREATH WHEN HOLDING THE BALLOON, AKANISHI." ROFLLLLLLL. What can I say. Such a adorable bakanishi.

>Can't wait for the start of the autumn season of Jdramas. I am especially looking forward to Ryusei no Kizuna, Team no Batisa and Bloody Monday. XDD.

Formula One picture spammage? ROFL.

2008-09-30T14:10:00.007+08:00

>I am so glad that Formula One is finally over and I can finally get to relax and unwind at home. :o The past few days have been a blur, and the only thing I can remember is the endless noise from the revving of the cars, the long standing and the incredible walking distance from Suntec to the Grandstand areas.

>Overall, it was a good experience and I think I learned a lot over the past few days regarding how Formula One is usually carried out and done. Way more than I have ever known. Besides, it was great fun working with Crystal and Shu Hui the past few days. If it weren't for them, i'd probably be bored out of my mind right now. XD;;

>Of course, having Preeti and Li Ting stop by too despite the fact that they were in the afternoon shift was great. :D We talked for quite a bit and we tried to take pictures of the cars. At least LT and me did. ROFL.

At Turn 3 with Wei Ping:

And my survival kit for the day mainly consisted of loads and loads of water and 100 plus. As well as my nifty ear plugs which, yes are neon orange. I;dk. XD.

Oh and the guy who most of the girl ushers were swooning about. The driver who won the BMW formula 1 pacific two consecutive times. He is kind of cute. Too bad he's only sixteen. LOLLL.

And my major spoil gained from Formula 1:

;_________; Gawd, it is so darned expensive, but I love it so much the same. I was torn between getting red or black but I decided on red because I have almost no red jackets and red stands ultimately for Ferrari, no? XDD.

>Ultimately, this will by first and last time in a F1 race. I don't think I am that much of a fan to go to the next few races. I am pretty content sitting in front of the television and watching it at home. XDD;;

People who need to re-adjust their views. Seriously.

2008-09-23T12:12:00.005+08:00

> I am absolutely pissed over the fact that people who call themselves "fans" demean their idols just because of a stupid matter. Sure, I am pissed and disapointed with the fact that despite promising to attend Ueda's solo concert a month ago, Jin didn't turn up but still as fans, you normally won't cuss and threaten to change fandoms because of that alone?

>Besides, it's not unusual of Jin to not attend, because he didn't go for Maru's stage play due to the Jodie Foster interview which was a work commitment and of course due to the fact that he chose to drag it to the last day to decide to attend Maru's stage play...=_______=" But still, as a fan, it is obvious, that yes, Jin is heck of an arrogant asshole, he does whatever he wants, flies to L.A just because he wants to study and basically leaves the five other poor members in the lurch for half a year. Yes, that cannot be denied. And KAT-TUN fans all know that. But what is important that those who call themself a fan. A Jin fan in particular, actually chose to react that way because of such a small matter is really....I don't know, like my icon says, medication inducing? It makes me sick. :\

> To me, it doesn't matter anymore whether Jin went or not. Whether we believe or don't believe that he attended but didn't sit in the audience. It is about mutual respect. About respecting each other's preferences of their choice of idols, about acknowledging the fact that your idol isn't as perfect as you thought he or she was supposed to be. There are times when i really want to punch Jin in the face because of his cocky demeanour but i don't know...Isn't it precisely of the fact that he is so confident that attracts people? Thus, i wonder why people who call themselves his loyal fans get all huffy over such a small incident. It is really sad.

>You know. I love my fandom so much, it actually pains me to see stupid conflicts about stupid things. I don't know what to think anymore. Seriously. D:

>EDIT: Gawd. The quote from AnAn from Jin regarding his third position for the yearly ranking of top thirty male idols in Japan.

Recently I'm starting to realize my real position, hence probably I'll be able to feel easy and relax when I'm working (or maybe he means that he can really enjoy working). I feel that there are many among the fans understand my personality and always protect me. Thank you very much.Without fans, there's no "Akanishi Jin" existing.

;_____________; Jin. I take back the part about being an arrogant asshole. This quote should seriously be shoved in front of those so called fans' faces. D:

OXY knows it's priorities aright.

2008-09-22T18:06:00.003+08:00

>Some Japanese commercials make me feel like flying to Japan to get the product you know. Especially certain ones involving a person named Akanishi Jin. You see what I mean-

>a;fshs;dkdj-SOLD. SOLD. Where is the OXY people? :D I love how they show his baka-ish equivalent of a smile all while simultaneously promoting the reason for his complexion on national television. *________* Gah, Jin.

>Okay, I just wanted to spam for a reason. :D Cradles neck* Why does it hurt so much....:\

Hair issues seem to plague me every few months, doesn't it? :X

2008-09-17T21:53:00.005+08:00

>I will not comment on the state of my hair now. I will seriously think twice about getting a straight perm again. I look like a complete idiot. D:

>Anyway, I just recieved an e-mail from Kelly Services stating that my training is now on Saturday. =________=" I have completely no idea why it changed but apparently it is according to groups you are assigned to.

Group: Usher U02
Date: 20th September 2008, Saturday
Time: 1300 – 1900hrs
Venue: Suntec City Convention Centre, Room MR 325 (Level 3).

Attire: Smart Casual
Please wear comfortable shoes as there will be a site visit, and do bring along a bag to store your issued items.

>Smart Casual....According to what I have learnt from business etiquette, it means no jeans? =______=" But comfortable shoes don't exactly go with business slacks you know. And I am not intending to wear a skirt. Facepalms*

>LOL. Akame spotted at some restaurant and looked rather happy while dining and the waiter overheard their conversation of Kame's intense fixation with not eating tomatoes. ROFL. I don't blame him, I am not a fan of tomatoes either. :X But gee, Kame isn't it obvious that tomatoes are always in spaghetti? Even if it is just in the sauce? =_______=" Oh well.

;__________; I cried so hard. Gawd, how I love this series. Maou, indeed.

2008-09-14T13:38:00.005+08:00

> I just watched the last episode of Maou. And gawd- IT IS INDEED THE MOST BEAUTIFUL, HEART-WRENCHING DRAMA OF THE YEAR EVER. Compared to this, Last Friends takes a backseat. The actors were brillant, the lighting and composition were awesome and the soundtrack-Oh god, excellent beyond words. I am in love with this drama's OST now.

>There is so so much pain going on and people are dying like flies getting swatted and there are tears and that angst- ;___________; People you expect to die really die and the people that you don't expect to, also die. D:

>A quick rundown/recap on the major characters in Maou:

Can't I be Naruse-san's angel?

>Shiori is the character in the series that is there to act as a contrast among all the hate and plotting and revenge going on. She knows her unusual pyschic ability is being manuiplated by the devil itself and hates that it is used in that way but she wants to help Naruse no matter what even after she realised his true idenity. Frankly, she's probably one of the few girl dorama characters that I actually don't hate, despite her not doing anything but smiling/crying at different intervals. I can't explain it but after you watch a few episodes, it is kind of hard to hate her. Watching her run after Naruse, melt his icy cold exterior, actually made him feel remorse for his actions was heart-breaking. It was like a;fsjdl;dj- YOU KNOW THIS COUPLE WON'T HAVE A HAPPY ENDING. DD: Cries*

Until you experience the pain of losing what truly matters to you in life....

>Naruse. What a character. First, you want to hit him because he is the mastermind behind the elaborate scheme to practically murder everyone close to Serizawa, namely, his friends and family, but then you find out that there's this side of him that is struggling in inner conflict, knowing desperately that this is wrong, but cannot help but continue because of his driven urge for revenge for the death of his younger brother eleven years ago. He struggles to stick to his plans all while trying to maintain a facade of competence and level-headness when actually deep down inside he feels torn about his actions, especially with Shiori's words weighing heavily on his conscience. It's almost as if Shiori is Naruse's or should I say, Tomoo-san's conscience.

I never thought I would have said this, but his character is one that I feel sorry for. I mean, in similar shows like Deathnote, for example, I didn't care about Raito. I absolutely detested that guy because he murdered people because he wanted perfection in the world. But Naruse...Especially in the later few episodes of Maou, I completely forgave him. I still think it is wrong; his scheme to murder others. But half way through the series, I realised it is not about who is wrong or right, but how the story will end... :X Ohno suprised me greatly with his acting skills. If you compare his acting to the lead actor of the Korean version of Maou, I can safely say that Ohno's acting beats that guy's acting skills anytime. Maybe I am biased, but in my honest opinion, it really is so. That is because Ohno does so much more than just looking like a crazed pyschopath that wants to be free. I don't know how he does it, but you can see it in his eyes. He pulls off the "I am in so much pain, yet I am pretending to be fine and concerned and kind." demeanour perfectly. And you know acting like that definitely requires some form of talent.

You can run, you can hide, you can forget your past, but your past will not forget you...

>And Serizawa/Toma. At first, he seems like the typical, brash, loud-mouthed cop whose idea of justice is to arrest and lock up every single villan, no matter how big or small and give them the appropriate punishment they deserve. But then he receives a tarot card which spirals off a series of murders of almost everyone important related to him and he finds his past catching slowly up to him. He knows what happens eleven years ago was an accident but cannot bring himself to forgive himself for his actions and until the end blames himself for everything that happened.

What can I say? Toma did wonderfully as this character. You would think that after watching episode after episode of Serizawa screaming, crying and bawling, that one would get irritated but you just can't...Especially in the last few episodes, each time he cries, he evokes a certain emotion and you can see how Toma has brought out the essence of Serizawa; the guilt at which he feels for committing that act eleven years ago and how he wishes the law could have punished him then. Absolutely...Speechless* I honestly feel that Toma really has potential as an actor...It's a pity he isn't debuted yet. Glares at Johnny* D:

>It's a pity though that this drama is so underappreciated in Japan. Although Code Blue was pretty decent and thus it holds the highest viewership rankings, I personally prefer Maou over it and I think that there were certain moments in Code Blue that were a little too dramatic. And as much as I love Yamapi, I don't think I can stand another season with him playing another character with dead-ish eyes and cool exterior. :\ However, there's going to be a Code Blue special in 2009, so the saga will continue, I guess.

Exams results are out! I can finally breathe again.

2008-09-11T15:27:00.003+08:00

>I just checked my results of last semester exams last night and boy was I glad. :)
I managed to pass all the subjects and my G.P.A improved by 0.05. Lolol. I know that's not a lot, but that's a start and I am happy. I am kind of sick of having the same G.P.A for the past few semesters you see. I even scraped accounting with a B and Attractions management too with also a B. XD;; I am so glad because during the past few days, I have been having nightmares about my grades repeatedly and repeatedly. It was honestly nerve-wracking. D:

>But I think the best possible thing that made my night (?)/ day yesterday was my grade for Introduction to Leisure and Recreation. ;_____; For the first time in my poly life, I have a Z! A DISTINCTION. Beams* So so happy and proud, considering this was a paper I studied the day before for only less than six hours and I thought I was going to bomb the entire paper because I crapped the whole way on it. XD;; Gah. So so elated. :D

>EDIT: =___________=" This is so weird. Apparently, some companies managed to get my resume information from Kelly services or my school because they called me and asked if I was interested in going for certain jobs. Like a marketing assistant in some company (whose name that I have never heard before?) ? =__________=" I told them straightaway that I wasn't interested....D: I hope they get the message and stop calling me! Geez. D:

I love my icon. Doggie and Jin=Absolute win over and pwnage.

2008-09-10T19:48:00.002+08:00

> I love finding shinies in mail. ;__________; Gawd, waiting a month for the KAT-TUN concert goods I ordered to arrive was excruciating. D: But now that all the shiny is finally in my hands...I'm honestly happy. :D

>;__________; Gosh, the clear folders turned out so much prettier than I expected it to be. And the studio photos of Jin. Gah. *__________* Totally worth my 48 dollars.

>The only thing I regret not ordering is the Queen of Pirates Shirt and Water bottle. I mean, both of them were pretty cute, but I was afraid the shirt wouldn't fit me and also they sold out pretty fast. D: Oh well.

>And really random, but I love my icon as well. Shiba inus and Jin. Dies*

Trouble in love paradise?

2008-09-07T23:03:00.004+08:00

>Usually, I don't care much for rumors about the boys dating whoever because that's their business and we as fans should try to stay out of their private lives as much as possible. But honestly, a porn actress, Junno? Facepalms* And I thought Koki was amazing enough to get one as his girlfriend. Honestly, what is with JE boys and their preferences for people in that industry, I will never know. D: I can't seem to bring myself to respect people who strip for a living, unfortunately. :\ But that aside, from what I make out from fans around and posts about Junno's rumored girlfriend, it seems that she is a nasty bit of work.

>I mean, backstabbing her co-actress because she was more popular than her by leaking out her naked photos and doing so many things that nearly put Junno and the agency into trouble. Like many fans, I just have this bad feeling about her, almost as if she is using Junno to boost her ailing popularity (Which has been declining even since she hit the twenties. D:) If she is sensible enough, she should have kept a low key on the issues such as like blatantly posting pictures of her and Junno around with matching charms and everything, despite the fact that it is against Johnny Entertainment policy to post images of any of their boys on blogs. D:

>Initially when the facebook pictures (?) of her and Junno first leaked out yesterday, I was happy for them. Because Junno works so hard, you would think he deserves a nice girlfriend to hang out with, but after I learned about her background, I have to say I am disappointed. Not because she was/is an actress in the gaurve industry, but because of the obvious way she is trying to use Junno to help her status. It kind of well, pisses me off. D:

>Oh well. Like I said, since it is none of my business in the first place as to who the boys date, I'd just sincerely hope and pray that whatever happens between the both of them, both parties will be able to take responsibility and be prepared for it.

>On the other hand, Okada Junichi of V6 is rumored to be dating Aoi Yuu (She starred in Onsen alongside Uchi Hiroki) And I am honestly happy for them both because they both make such a cute couple. Plus, Aoi Yuu is really pretty. *__________*

>EDIT: OMFG. SOME IDIOTIC TAIWANESE DIRECTOR USED KAME'S PICTURE AT A FUNERAL SCENE IN A SHOW. Dies laughing*Opps, :X OUCH. That is just plain...=____________=" Now Kame's fans are throwing a riot.

Fandom and it's stupid stalker tendancies

2008-09-04T11:53:00.006+08:00

> It really pisses me off when I read about creepy, stalking fans that go to the extent of camping outsides their idols' houses, stealing their mail from their mailboxes and etc etc. However, to have majorly, four big entertainment JE Boybands: Arashi, NEWS, KAT-TUN and Hey!Say!Jump post an angry letter to thousands of fans in their fanclub is a serious issue. D:

>It shocks me that there are actually fans who have completely no brains as to do stupid things like planting hidden cameras in their house (Yamada's) or putting a listening/tapping device in Ueda's house. This is obviously a clear invasion of privacy. I wish these fans would see that these boys don't belong to them. They might entertain us with their songs, dance, variety shows and so on, but they are human beings and are entitled to their own privacy and human rights. By doing all the crazy things above, you are not only breaching their rights as a human but you're also making them become more guarded and stand-offish towards fans.

>And people ask why there was an adrupt change in certain of their behaviours. Like take Jin for instance, he used to be friendly, smily and polite to his fans way back in 2005. Yet, in 2006, many things changed. And who can we blame? Only those who made him that way. :\ I am not trying to say that I am a completely righteous fan, that I haven't in a way supported the dealings of those stupid stalkers by unknowingly purchasing paparazzi pictures sold, but at least I know my boundaries, such as just happily supporting my idols by buying their merchandise and watching them from afar. Even if I were to be in Japan itself, stalking would be seriously out of the question for me. Firstly, it is not only a waste of time and secondly, it's not me. I am just happy seeing them perform and supporting their music and various talents.

>Celebrity obession is a serious thing and I guess for these people, it must have completely taken over them to be so possessed to do all of the crazy things. It worries me that even Hey!Say!Jump, boys not even turning twenty are recieving death threats and stalkers. It's sad. It makes me think why such things exist in the first place.

>Oh well, the only thing we fans can do to improve this situation is to clean up our act. Or at least, refering to those fans directly involved in causing this mayhem. Coughs* Like Jin's message said: " If you're a fan, please keep your manners." There are certain boundaries that restrict one from obession to a supportive fan and I think it's important more people get to know that.

>Okay, now that I have finally unleashed the rant I have been holding in since last night when I first saw the message, it's now time for happier things. Firstly, it's 4th September so...

HAPPY 25th BIRTHDAY NAKAMARU! 8D

>I hope he has a lovely day. ^^

>Also went out with Rachel yesterday to Orchard. We had a good talk over lunch while eating ramen (Which we both couldn't finish...LOLOL) and we shopped about for a while in Kinokuniya and HMV and talked about loads of stuff and catching up on the stuff we missed. I am glad to hear Rachel's doing fine in her new school and how she's just started taking violin lessons. I really hope I have another chance to meet up with her again. XD. It was fun.

>And CTKT today. I laughed so hard. Why is Jin so cute when he's being nervous about interviewing Jodie Foster. I must say, his english is really good. ^^ I could understand 3/4 of what he was trying to say even without looking at the screen and Will Smith was love. He made me laugh so hard that I almost cried. I love that man. XDD. I suppose CTKT will continue next week then with Kame and the Sex and City girls shopping since they don't manage to show it this week instead. D:

The Devil meets his match.

2008-09-01T16:52:00.002+08:00

>Went out with Anne early this morning to watch the movie: Death Race. It was okay, I guess. Lots of gore, violence and gun banging. Well, I think the title pretty much says it all. The racers race to their deaths. And really gruesome ones, mind.

>I have never seen both of the actors before. But the cars in the show are really clunky and huge with all the amour and everything. LOLOL.

>After that, I went to TP and signed my appointment letter for Formula One. It was so tiring having to queue for so long even though I went there 15 minutes before the letters were even given out. Stupid Accounting and Finance people...=_______=" I don't even know why the school let them take part...I mean, this is obviously a tourism related event, they should let more of the students take part instead of cruelly taking out some...Some of my friends/classmates didn't make the cut so I guess I'm lucky...And the worse part was that everyone was misled by the first e-mail that EVERYONE got selected. But it turns out it wasn't...D: Heaves a sigh of relief*

>I got to see the T-shirt though. It looks so unappealing. Oh well. D: I also heard that some might be assigned to do ushering at the MRT. I have a bad feeling I am one of them. : Sigh, what is the point then if you do ushering at the MRT....Yoh...Oh well. That's life.

>Am watching Maou now. Gawd, I am in love with this series. I love Toma more and more by the minute and Ohno is growing on me. (Even if he was involved in a scandal...D:) Why is Naruse's pain so...DD: This is even worse than Deathnote. At least I hated Raito then. Now, I can't even bear to hate Naruse/Ohno. His pitiful past....:

I won't let you hurt any more innocent people. I will catch you-Serizawa/Toma; Maou

I understand your intentions, so please catch me faster- Naruse/Ohno; Maou

I AM FINALLY FREE! :)

2008-08-30T21:13:00.004+08:00

Freedom tastes so sweet. Finally, I am done and over with exams! I hope I don't have to repeat anything though since I am pretty sure I screwed up most of my papers, especially Introduction to Leisure and Recreation. I never bull shitted so much for a paper besides Marketing. I'm honestly worried. ):

Cue DRAMATIC SCREAM*

Okay, maybe that wasn't dramatic enough. Oh well. :\

>Oh well, I am really exhausted though since I spent the whole of today virtually doing nothing but household chores, from washing dishes, hanging clothes, washing clothes, sweeping and mopping. Honestly, what is wrong with me today. D: I think my obessive complusive disorder to get everything in order is kicking in. It's scary. Gah. ;__________;

>I also managed to meet LT at Comex last Thursday. I hope you're doing fine and everything and hang in there~! Tomorrow's the last day, after all. ^^

>Can't wait for this week's CTKT. Jodie Foster and Will Smith! Jin speaking english. Gah, finally CTKT seems to picking up and being nice again. Though I must say that I already laughed so hard at Jin in this week's CTKT already.

>Honestly, why is he so afskdlfdkj- CUTE. *__________*

>Also did this quiz for fun, regarding my personality and I am quite amused with the results...

My personality:

Analytical Thinkers are reserved, quiet persons. They like to get to the bottom of things - curiosity is one of their strongest motives. They want to know what holds the world together deep down inside. They do not really need much more to be happy because they are modest persons. Many mathematicians, philosophers and scientists belong to this type.

Analytical Thinkers loathe contradictions and illogicalness; with their sharp intellect, they quickly and comprehensively grasp patterns, principles and structures. They are particularly interested in the fundamental nature of things and theoretical findings; for them, it is not necessarily a question of translating these into practical acts or in sharing their considerations with others. Analytical Thinkers like to work alone; their ability to concentrate is more marked than that of all other personality types. They are open for and interested in new information.

Analytical Thinkers have little interest in everyday concerns - they are always a little like an “absent-minded professor” whose home and workplace are chaotic and who only concerns himself with banalities such as bodily needs when it becomes absolutely unavoidable. The acknowledgement of their work by others does not play a great role for them; in general,they are quite independent of social relationships and very self-reliant.

Analytical Thinkers therefore often give others the impression that they are arrogant or snobby - especially because they do not hesitate to speak their mind with their often harsh (even if justified) criticism and their imperturbable self-confidence. Incompetent contemporaries do not have it easy with them. But whoever succeeds in winning their respect and interest has a witty and very intelligent person to talk to. A partner who amazes one with his excellent powers of observation and his very dry humour.It takes some time before Analytical Thinkers make friends, but then they are mostly friends for life. They only need very few people around them. Their most important ability is to be a match for them and thus give them inspiration. Constant social obligations quickly get on their nerves; they need a lot of time alone and often withdraw from others.

Their partner must respect this and understand that this is not due to the lack of affection. Once they have decided in favour of a person, Analytical Thinkers are loyal and reliable partners. However, one cannot expect romance and effusive expressions of feelings from them and they will definitely forget their wedding anniversary. But they are always up to a night spent with stimulating discussions and a good glass of wine!

Adjectives which describe your type: introverted, theoretical, logical, spontaneous, rational, analytical, intellectual, sceptical, pensive, critical, quiet, precise, independent, creative, inventive, abstract, eccentric, curious, reserved, self-involved, imaginative, unsociable, determined, modest, careful, incommunicative, witty

These subjects could interest you: literature, science fiction, philosophy, psychology, mathematics, Internet, drawing/painting, astrology, spiritual things, meditation, music, writing, strategy games, politics

>If you ask me, it totally doesn't really describe me at all. Facepalms* It's strange though how I take all these quizzes and I always get the "YOU'RE A VERY LOGICAL PERSON AND ARE SUITABLE TO BE A MATHETICIAN" kind of rubbish thrown at me all the time. It's hilarous. :X

Link to quiz for whoever is interested in taking it, it's a pretty short one, thank gawd-:http://www.ipersonic.com/test.html

As the years go by...

2008-08-14T17:12:00.003+08:00

> I just turned one year older today. It feels like every other day for me, just 10 times better. Haha. :) I'm really grateful to everyone who took the effort to wish me a happy birthday. Whether it is via sms-es, throwing me a impromptu celebratory birthday "bash", e-mailing, giving me presents or whatnot. I appreciate each and everyone's efforts and am really thankful.

>Especially my classmates. I was really surprised when they took the effort to get me a cake even though some of them only found out that my birthday was today this morning, and singing me the birthday song three times (Which made me feel that I aged three years instead of one...=_______=") As everyone knows, the past few months I have been feeling a bit out and distanced from my new class, but today, for once, I don't know, I felt...Sort of different? I can't quite describe the feeling. It's sad though, to only feel this way when tomorrow is the last day of school at TAS, Sentosa and next term, we would be in different classes again. Oh well, life's like that. Besides, I take a long time to adapt to changes so this usually happens to me. I;dk. D:

> 18 is really a depressing age. Haha, if it were me, I would choose to stay forever at fourteen, it's a lovely age. Oh well, but life goes on and as the years pass by, people grow older but their spirit to live never truly fades. I guess this is what we call, "Young at heart."

This quote on the bookmark my classmate gave me as a present seems to think the same way too:

Age is mind over matter.

If you don't mind, it doesn't matter. - [Mark Twain]

New phone~!

2008-08-09T22:59:00.003+08:00

>Went out to Paragon today with my family who insisted on pre-celebrating my birthday even though it's five days away. =____________=" We had dinner at this new Italian restaurant and yeah, the only thing great there were it's pastries. I had chocolate truffle cake and it was great. My dad also got me a new handphone for my present, which was the LG secret series that came out about 2 weeks ago. I decided on that because well, it seemed like the best choice around...I liked the design...And there was no other phones that got my attention. D: Seriously, why doesn't M1 bring in more flip phones that are stylish looking?

My phone model:

So I got the LG one instead. But it's pretty cool. except for the fact that I cannot control my camera on the phone. ;__________; I got scolded by some random Kinokuniya staff member for taking photos in the store.

>Which I apparently wasn't.. I was just trying to figure out why my camera kept giving flash and click clack sounds. =___________=" I seriously wanted to kill him after that. I mean, it's okay if you scold me, but not if you complain to your colleagues in front of me when I'm in hearing distance minutes later. It's really not funny. DD: KINOKUNIYA SO NEEDS NEW STAFF. This isn't the first time I got scolded by staff for weird stuff. Bah. Or maybe because my attitude is so undesirable, I deserve scolding. Anyway, I prefer shopping at the Bugis and Liang court outlets because the staff there don't bother me so much. :\ The problem is I seldom get to go there. Oh well.

I am abusing gifs, but I'm lovin' it. Hahaha. XD. Kidding.

> I BOUGHT BREAKING DAWN. *__________* a;skldkkt-I couldn't resist when I saw them displayed in Kinokuniya today. I just finished reading Eclipse too so it's perfect timing. :) But oh gosh, the rumors and leak outs I saw in Livejournal were true. Pillow biting Edward during matrimony, seemingly half vampire kids and other more spoilers. 0____o I'm such a spoilsport, i flipped to the back of the book before I even started. XDD;;

>Well, enough about breaking dawn, because this week's ctkt has enough snippets to make me go "MOEE~~" Shoko-tan style. I mean, COSPLAYING SEPIROTH JIN AND DRAGONBALL KOKI. Oh, my-*___________*

AND HE DOESN'T UNDERSTAND THE POWER HE HAS. *___________* Shokotan was in hysterics when he came out. She was screaming, " He did 9999 damage to me and to the entire nation!" ROFLLLL.. And Jin had to reply, " But my career as an artist has suffered 9999 damage also." XDD. Oh, Jin.

>And he got so shy about it, the cosplay, it was so, ;skeijty-Cute.

>Also, cannot wait for next week's ctkt. Finally, things are picking up and the editors have finally realised that ctkt is best done in a group format. XD. Though, it's mostly Maru, Jin, Junno and Kame in the next episode..But, still....*____________*

>Seriously adorab. And what a smart way to disguise Kame's awful permed hair. I APPROVE OF THIS HAIRSTYLE. XD.

(Side note: All the above gifs are credit to vandi714 of livejournal and not mine in anyway. Thank you. D:)

Marathonnnnn~~

2008-07-23T22:35:00.003+08:00

>The past weeks really have been a nightmare, projects, deadlines, tests, projects, deadlines and more tests. And to my utter amazement and dismay, D:, the cycle lives on. DD: Next week, I have two tests coming up along with a individual project deadline. Murder me, someone. ;______;

>On a happier note: I just got an e-mail from the organisers and it looks like...

I AM GOING TO THE FORMULA ONE, FIRST NIGHT RACE, SINGAPORE GP~!

>I'd be working as an usher, so chances I won't be able to see the race at all. Id;k. D: And the pay is crappy, SGD $4 an hour and additional $2 for over-time. : But at least this means I have a once in a lifetime experience in participating in such an event. Even Epilepsy Congress the last time didn't make me as excited. XD;;

>Somehow I love my wednesdays for ending so early. I just hate the hassle of getting up at 5 plus just to do my makeup, hair and attire. D: However, all my efforts paid off apparently, I managed to score full marks for attire assessment today. XD. Mr Fernando asked me the same routine questions again, whether I was wearing stockings (I was. :) and whether I had lipstick on (Which I did. Just a really nude-ish like colour, really..=_____=") but he was generous and in the end, I managed to get full marks. Am happy, since he was much much stricter this time and only another classmate and me got full marks this time round.

>Right after that, I mrt-ed my way down to Tampines Mall and watched Batman: The Dark Knight with Anne. I only ate crepes and takoyaki for lunch before watching it. XD. But surprisingly, I didn't feel hungry. Haha, the crepe was more filling than I thought. Oh and the fact that I kept stealing Anne's nachos and coke throughout the movie. That's probably why. XD. But the conclusion is...

I SO WANT CARS LIKE BATMAN. I MEAN, SLEEK, SHINY. EVEN HIS DAY CARS ARE FLASHY. I APPROVE. 8DD

>Overall, it was a pretty decent movie. It had loads of twists and turns in the plot and strangely, when some of the "important" characters died, I felt no emotion. Hahahaha, probably because I don't like them very much to begin with. ^^;;

>a;skungh and CTKT tonight. Cannot wait.

Though I hate thursdays since I end so late. I feel like skipping lecture. D: I'm a bad student. I think I skipped countless AM lectures already...If only the lecturer didn't make me fall asleep the few times I attended. :\

>And new blog layout. Isn't it pretty. *_______* Not done by me though. D:

He's not a hero.

He's a silent protector, when people find no use for him anymore, he disappears.

That is why the police must hunt him down.

Batman, the dark knight.

Back to the basics of a great lunch. ♥

2008-07-16T19:48:00.005+08:00

>a;skungh-Finally bese presentation is done and over with. And accounting test too. Good riddance. To my utter dismay, i still can't get the net profits to match the one given. D: And to think I was pretty confident before the paper that I would at least pass. Now, I'm worried. ;________; Oh well.. And I only had four hours of sleep last night since I had to rush my presentation slides for Bese lesson and my accounting paper only ended at six.

>Aside from the tiredness and the crappy 9am Bese lesson today, I think everything went pretty okay. I had lunch with Anne at Takashimiya today since I ended lessons at 11 plus and we ate Omu rice and Takoyaki. It was great. ♥

>We even ate Azabu Sabo ice cream for dessert though we ended up sharing since we figured double scoop was more worth it. XD. Then we stopped by Kinokuniya and I bought Eclipse as a treat, since I am already halfway through New Moon and I don't think I can stand the thought of having to wait to buy Eclipse right after I finish New Moon. XDD;; I also got volume 7 of Vampire Knight manga...gee...I think I have a fascination for vampires....It seems all the stuff I get are in some way related to them...=__________="

>Then when I got home, I went into " cleaning mode" and washed all my formal clothing along with some of my non machine washable clothing, then cleaned the toilet and hung the laundry. =__________=" Unfortunately, once I get into the mode of cleaning something...I can't stop doing other areas too...So it was only until now that I'm finally taking a break while working on my project...And struggling to keep my eyes open. D:

>But on the other hand, ctkt tonight. Sendai. Ueda and Kame as ADs. I can't wait. ♥ :D
id;k, it had BETTER be tonight or I'd kill the ctkt editors. DD:

Ore wa messenger? =_______________="

2008-07-14T21:36:00.004+08:00

>I AM NOT A DARN OWL, SO STOP ASKING ME TO PASS MESSAGES TO EACH OTHER WHEN YOU BOTH HAVE EACH OTHER'S NUMBERS. DD: I DON'T EVEN GET PAID AND I'M WASTING MY PRECIOUS ACCOUNTING TEST STUDYING TIME JUST TO MESSAGE BOTH OF YOU.

>id;k. I hate my life. Honestly, I do. Okay, now that drama and caplocks are done and over with. Er-hum, Pin Pin Pin. *__________* Gosh, why are the two boys so adorably cute, talking on the phone for half an hour and writing jwebs about it. XD. Or at least Pi does. ILU both.

>Argh, accounting test tmr. Murder me. ;_____________;

Pride is the downfall of men.

2008-07-13T08:07:00.002+08:00

> I detest people who undermine my ability to do things I have confidence in. D:
I don't want to sound arrogant or conceited, (However much some people already think I am), but I take pride in whatever work I do, whether it is academic based, personally or something else. I appreciate constructive criticism, helpful editing, and advice on how to improve. However, I draw the line at completely re-vamping my work till it looks nothing like the original copy I submitted in the first place. Furthermore, the edited version only served to demolish my entire sentence and paragraphing structure I had done in the first place though I must say that I am indeed impressed with the substiantation of facts.

>Look, teamwork is crucial here. If you're going to insist in running a one-man show, no one can object or save you. :\

>Ouch, loads of angst for a morning, but it's the time of the month and I really feel immensely irritated by things.

Akatarzan is my kind of Tarzan. <33

2008-07-10T17:54:00.008+08:00

>a;skungh-WHY DO I NOT LIVE IN JAPAN. ;__________;

>On the other hand, if I lived there though I will be broke. But, oh holy- *________* JIN.

>sdr;sdjt-Tarzan. AkaTarzan. And happy trail. Is dead*

> AND THIS ONE. HOW CAN SOMEONE LOOK SO IRESISTABLY SEXY WHEN PUTTING ON A SHIRT, I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA. *_______________*, Ungh. Flails*

>I like the one where he's putting his hands on his neck, it's just so nice and simplistic but, nice. Okay, I make no sense. :X

AND MY FAVOURITE SHOT OF ALL: 8DD

>*_____________* AKANISHI JIN. BY A GLASS MIRROR. AND WET DROPLETS AND STARING WISTFULLY INTO THE CAMERA LENS. OH MY GAW- Implodes into pieces*

>Thank you, Tarzan editors, clearly, you meant to send my hormones into overdrive. ROFL.

>And Shizuoka concert reports~ ^^ Concert reports always never fail to make my day, KAT-TUN bantering with each other and teasing, so so adorable.

The most classic part of the Shizuoka concert report (Credits to stanime of LJ)

MC

Maru: July 4th was Akanishi-kun's birthday.

Fans: Omedetou~

Jin: Thank you

Maru: How is it? How do you feel entering 24?

Jin: Eh?

Maru: Just asking how you feel entering 24

Jin: Ah, just feels the same age as Nakamaru

Kame: Hm? Isn't Nakamaru 32?

Maru: Oi

Jin: Ne ne, which member do you think mailed me on my birthday? Only 1 person.

Kame: Really? *laughs*

Jin: Really! Then let's have a quiz, those that think is xx (KT-TUN) put your hands up!(Fans start putting hands up)

Jin: Only Kamenashi-kun. (Fans scream)

Maru: Uso~!

Kame: Eh? You guys never sent mails? Normally you should have.

TU: No no, there's something wrong with the mail address and didn't get through

Kame: Haihai, start with Ueda.

Ueda: It's like this, I wrote "Happy birthday" at 23:55 and sent it, then it turned out "The mail can not be sent"

Kame: I sent it through SMS.

Jin: Right.

Maru then said he called but didn't get to Jin. Junno send a mail but was talking about something completely different.

> The boys are so adorable. XDD. The funny thing is that usually mails in Japan to the handphone cost more than the sms, that was what I read. Poor Maru, he always gets teased for his age. XDD. I totally didn't expect that it was Kame who greeted him though. Haha. Kame also mentioned that he gave Jin a baseball hat on his radio show, which is =_______=" Since after all, we know Kame's the baseball fan. Apparently, Aya Ueto also gave Jin a gift, which is sweet of her. <33>Am excited for next week's ctkt though. FINALLY SIX OF THEM IN ONE FRAME. AM I SO GLAD. 8DD Kame and Ueda being ADs and forced to run errands for AT-TN, and Maru bungee jumping, a;skungh;- so so excited.

>Ueda AD at your service! ROFL. Jin sure looked like he was having fun riding on Ueda's back.

>And Kameda being baggage people. Poor them. LOL. XDD.

Id;k, I hate myself at times, I really do.

2008-07-09T16:38:00.006+08:00

>STUPIDITY MUST BE IN MY BLOOD, THAT CAN BE THE ONLY EXPLAINATION. DDDDDD:

> You'd never guess what happened. Never in a million, trillion, billion years. D: Okay, because-

I DROPPED MY MP3 PLAYER, MY RECENTLY BOUGHT,

4 MONTH YEAR OLD PLAYER ONTO THE TRAIN TRACKS.

> Yes, you read correctly. TRAIN TRACKS. DD: And id;k I had to wait a full one hour and half for the staff to save it and it turns out everything was working fine but the screen of the mp3 player had a scratch on the top right side. ;______________; Looks like I'd need to get a new mp3 player soon. But argh, am so broke from the spending the past few weeks and I really do not have the necessary cash flow to get a brand new one, so i guess for now, I'd just have to live with it. :\

>Morale of the story? NEVER PUT THE MP3 PLAYER ON TOP OF THE BAG ON YOUR LAP AND RUSH OUT WITHOUT PLACING IT BACK INTO YOUR BAG WHEN CAUGHT BY SURPRISE BY A STAFF MEMBER SHOOING YOU OFF THE TRAIN BECAUSE IT NEEDS MAINTENANCE. DDDD:

>Id;k, so upset now.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU~~

2008-07-04T23:16:00.006+08:00

>OKAY. NORMALLY THIS IS CONSIDERED CHEATING, SINCE IT'S ALREADY 5TH OF JULY IN JAPAN. But here I still have 42 minutes and counting to the 5th, so-

HAPPY 24th BIRTHDAY AKANISHI JIN! 8DD

>Although I have only seriously started liking Jin last year. And KAT-TUN, technically, even i do know of their existence wayy back in 2006, I wasn't technically a fan yet, so- But I guess what's so endearing about Jin is that he's brutually honest, he knows what he wants and he isn't afraid to tell the world about that. It's kind of refreshing in this industry of showbiz and glamour where sometimes people put on facades or their professional sides, like a certain someone. Coughs* And that's why I like Jin best, because he simply doesn't care. Sure, people have said he is a jerk since he turned down autograph seeking people before, but what do we as fans know about him to judge? Maybe in his private life, he is a nice, friendly, warm person to his family and friends but we will never get to know his true self, wouldn't we? So, I think it's best not to judge anything by the surface when you don't know the content.

>On a happier side note: Kazuki, Kenken and Takumi will be all back in the upcoming Tenimyu musical. *___________* Gawd, I missed them so. sr;djdkt-Though I'm having serious second thoughts about watching it when the DVD is out because well, to be frank, pot isn't my cup of tea anymore. :\ It just kind of fizzled out in me, the pot and hyoutei loving fangirl. Oh well.

Toma approves of my marks! XD.

2008-06-23T21:06:00.002+08:00

>I PASSED MY ACCOUNTING TEST. WITH AN A. *__________* JOY TO THE WORLD. :) To think the past few days, make it three weeks since I did the test, I have been worrying like mad as to whether I'd pass since I couldn't balance the stupid thing, but apparently, according to the teacher, not balancing does not equate to failure. ^______^ Which means I pretty much still got marks even though I couldn't get the correct answer, I'm happy.

>I do feel kind of stupid still though since many of my classmates did much much better than me, getting Zs and distinctions and stuff on the paper. Oh well, that's what you get by being in a class with the possible highest number of Director's Honour List students? People with 3.5 GPA and above, how can one compete. =_______="

>Got many surprised remarks from my friends, ex-classmates, classmates and even my teacher about my hair today. =________=" Funnily enough, most of the girls who commented thought it was rather short, while my guy friends actually said it was nicer looking on me. ROFL. Oh well, to each to their opinion I guess. Personally I like my longer hair better except for the fact that it was getting way too bushy for me to control. 0(>___________<)0

>Really stressed out about the upcoming tests and presentations for the next few weeks. Sighs* Now I really want holidays to come back. ;______;

But you have always been the strong one.

2008-06-22T11:06:00.004+08:00

>Sdr;sdjt-in less than 24 hours, I will be heading to school and attending crappy lessons and everything. ;______; Do not want.

>KAT-TUN summer con 2008 started yesterday, am so so envious of the people who attended, but also thankful for their fanreports. The concerts sounded like so much fun and the goods shown at the Yahoo!Japan auctions looked so pretty. *__________* Gah, now I wished I had a ticket. :\

>Reading stuff like , Jin chasing Maru but falling as he almost reached him and Junno helping him get up immediately. Or Jin going to Maru, "Do you want to see my xxx?" when Maru said his fly was undone or Kame mucking up his lyrics to Real Face Encore just because he was too busy laughing at Jin. It makes me smile. :) Sounds like they had loads of fun. I really wish that in the future I would have a chance to attend a KAT-TUN concert, it need not be good seats or anything, I think just going there along for the atmosphere is good enough. 8D

>And the fans are so so brilliant. ALREADY, THERE HAVE BEEN PICTURES OF JIN AT THE CONCERT LEAKED OUT. ILU, dear fangirls.

>Jin. *___________* Don't you ever stop being who you are, because that what's we fans like you as. And that includes his fascination for blond girls. LOL.

>Back to RL: My right arm still hurts from Tennis, I think I strained it too much while trying to hit back the balls on friday. D: But I'm glad I was able to meet LT and Debs on wednesday, it was a great lunch, people! I'd hope we will be able to meet soon~ :)

> I'm terribly in love with the song, "Shelter" by Corrinne May. The lyrics are meaningful and her voice is mildy soothing.

Especially this chorus bit:

Just call my name, let me be an answer, 'cause it hurts me to see you this way.

I wanna ease your pain, help me understand.

Let me be your shelter, my friend.

Shelter; Beautiful seed-Corrinne May.

Crunkyyyyy~♥

2008-06-16T14:28:00.005+08:00

>Yesterday was movie marathon day or something. =_________=" I watched two movies, Indiana Jones and the crystal skull and Kungfu Panda. And had a break of about 20 minutes in between each movie? It was crazy. And mind, $9.50 a ticket isn't cheap. :\ But oh well, whatever makes my parents happy. They're paying anyway. LOLOL.

>Anyway, Kungfu Panda made me laugh a lot. I didn't even realise the Tiger's voice was Angelina Jolie and that the monkey and the snake were Jackie Chan and Lucy Liu respectively. It was kind of amusing. XD.

>Oh and after buying several bars of chocolate from the Korean Mini mart at Kallang Leisure Park yesterday, I hereby declare to be deeply, madly in love with this:

(Credit to practicallydone.com for the image above and not mine in anyway whatsoever. D:)

It's so darned good. The colour of the chocolate wasn't so appealing, since it kind of melted a bit since it wasn't in the fridge but it was crunchy and when you munch it, there's nutty flavour. 8D Absolute love. ♥

>And no, it doesn't have to do anything with the fact that KAT-TUN and Kame advertise it. No, it doesn't. Smile sheepishly*

>Zeesh concludes my random.

Crunky is like my soul food to my pinata. ♥

Love, Liberation, Agony, Solitude, Contradiction-Last Friends.

2008-06-13T21:41:00.006+08:00

>Announcement: My hair is beyond repair. ;__________; I'd look like some really bad imitation of Keira Knightly's hairstyle in Domino (You know that awfully short hair she had in the army-ish movie) along with copper red meshed with brown dye. Thank you, Mrs dear hair stylist, clearly you possess a inbuilt talent to destroy my hair everytime I visit. I'm half tempted to get an ice pick. DD:

I hereby announce my ambition for next week: TO GROW LONG HAIR. Or at least my hair back. Now my hair is barely past my ear, darn it. :X

>On the other hand, looks like I'm not the only fashion disaster. =__________="

>JIN. GAH. WHAT. ;__________; WHY IS KAME'S AWFUL GLASSES DISEASE SPREADING. Do not want. :X

>Just watched episode 10 of Last Friends this morning. Surprise, surprise. Sosuke died. T________T I knew this was bound to happen, but why- It pains my heart so. Ryo...;~~; I think his acting got better and better as the drama progressed. Next week's the last episode, but I don't even feel like watching it since my sole motivation to the series is gone. :\

>But a;skungh-This picture. Ah, the old days. <33

Sosuke, if you truly love her, you need to let her go- Last Friends. ♥

Take beside you the bare remains.

2008-06-10T09:09:00.003+08:00

>Remind me why we had to travel all the way to Discovery Centre again? Gah, I could have sworn that the journey-ing there was more tiring than the process of being there itself. Ah, the lengths we have to go to for a project and we are not even sponsored too! : Somehow I feel my ten bucks was cheated, okay, it's more of $8.50 since Fang managed to get us discounts with her passion card, but still- D: If we don't do well for Attractions Management project, I think i might strangle somebody. :X

>Took a couple of pictures with the digital camera I brought. Funny how we actually manage to look energetic despite feeling like crap after sitting the MRT all the way from Tampines to Boon Lay. Tampines to Boon Lay, it's almost from one end of the line to the other...=____________=" Oh gawd.

>And the food available there was woe, disapointing, I had to wait till three to get a decent meal at Jurong Point food court, can you imagine. :

>AND GAWD, THIS IS THY REASON WHY I'D DO ANYONE THAT HOT WITH VICES AND WHATNOT-

>I adore his hair, oh oh, gawd, hyperventilates*

>For some reason, unlike my normal reaction when I see people smoking is, "Argh, eww..", I swear my defence swayed for quite a bit, a;skungh-hot.

>My favourite picture of the entire Popeye shoot:

Jin ♥ *_________________________* I'd totally do anyone that hot in a wifebeater shirt, I'd totally. 8DD

>Oh and I think I'm falling in love with kazuki all over again. Am so so ridiculously happy at the amount of movie projects he got and eee-I don't know whether to be envious or jump-kick Erika Toda, because not only is she going to act with Pi in this summer's dorama, she's acting with...

KAZUKI. KAZUKI. *___________________* OH, THANK YOU, LORD, MY DAY HAS COME. What a lucky girl, and to think I hated Sayuri Iwata when she managed to act with both Jin and Kazuki, now Erika, who has possibly acted with the ENTIRE acting industry is acting with Kazuki, I need to go die now. : Oh gawd.

BATTLE FOR THE TRUTH. Don't know how to break the truth.

2008-06-04T14:48:00.004+08:00

>A wayyy long overdue post since I left from HK. XDD;; But yeah, lately school and RL has been crazy and I hardly feel any motivation to update, which explains the lack of entries the past few weeks. But finally, holidays are here! I'm feeling a little guilty for slacking off so much the past 2 days including today, but I figured I deserved a break after all the hectic rushing the past few weeks. :P

>Now, coming to fandom; I can't wait for my copy of Queen of Pirates to come. I absolutely adored the album, it was like reading a storybook with each chapter being in a different setting. I guess this is probably why I fancy KAT-TUN's music so much, they never hesitate to re-vamp themselves everytime they have a new release, whether it's Jazz, Blues, Rock, Pop-Rock, Techno, even. It's really refreshing compared to many other JE groups. :) Of course, having a beatboxer and rap makes transition for them into other genres much easier.

>My personal favourites were Taboo, Affection, Hell No, Mother/Father, Shot!, 12 'o'clock and Ai no command and Six senses. Especially Hell No and 12'o'clock, because Hell No reminded me of old KAT-TUN, when they sang Never Again and Wilds of my heart but with more of an edge. And 12'o'clock, well, the distorted chipmunk voices and the english rap at the start? 4,5, 6'o' clock, I'm working on my guns, 7,8'o'clock, drinking my protein. CLASSIC, I TELL YOU. ROFL.

>There were fans who were worried that they would be disappointed by the success of this album because they were afraid the next release KAT-TUN would come up with might not be able to meet up to expectations since they were nicely suprised at how well the album turned out. XDD;; Personally, I don't worry too much, because knowing KAT-TUN and their re-inventing ways, they'd probably come up with something totally unexpected next single or whatever. (Though I honestly don't want their next single to be so fast since am already broke from buying their previous ones and since they are going to have concerts soon, I'm speculating a concert DVD in the works, so I'd better start saving money soon. ;__________;)

>And the making made me so ridiclously happy. *__________* Gah, those smiles and frolicking. I'm happy. 8D And TaNaka burnt Kame's hat and teased him that he smelt. WIN. ♥

OH AND THE PRINCESS TAKES A TUMBLE.

(Gif is credit to vani13 of Livejournal and not mine in anyway whatsoever. )

>ROFL. SORRY, BUT UEDA. 8DDD a;sunghk-I laughed so hard. Gawd. Gets bricked*

>AND JUNNO, ILU. SRLSLY. ♥

>And Ja Ken Pon, KAT-TUN style!

>Gah, it's raining again. : Am off now to continue watching Zettai Kareshi and on other stuff I missed. DD: Ciao.

No one can choose the end of love. No one can lose their faith in love. ♥- Hell No.

Adios, everyone! ♥

LEAVING ON A PLANE TO HONG KONG NOW. 8D

(Damn, I still cannot get LoveJuice and it's lyrics out of my head. "My hands on your hips as we grind, she whispered in an accent unknown... " XDD. Is amazed what pron does. )

Dial G for gossip, anyone? :|

2008-05-10T12:49:00.004+08:00

>Went out to Raffles place yesterday to celebrate Mother's Day. We ate dinner at the Plaza Marketplace, a buffet kind of restaurant. It was so so filling. : I kind of liked the dessert section much other than the others so I raided most of the food available there, much to my mother's dismay. XDD. But anyway-

>a;skunghatahaunghh...HQ quality of DUES pv. Although the TV stations have yet to air the full 8 minutes version, having a clear four minutes plus version is enough for me. *_____*

>All those GRINDING. And with the girls included. So so hot. I think my brain broke. And there are fans who protest against the idea of having girls in the pv. I can only say, I fully do not comprehend. :

>And seeing licking hand fetish Jin in motion is terribly sensual.

>Oh and I just read a rather interesting article about Kusano, former NeWS member deciding to leave for New York to pursue his english studies and get a feel of their local culture there. Apparently, Akanishi Jin was seen partying with him along with a couple of other people before he left the night before. They looked rather chummy and were in the company of several beautiful model, exotic girls. LOLOL. Typical, what's new? ROFL. Apparently Kusano looks up to Jin and feels left out whenever Jin starts speaking english, hence one of the factors in his sudden decision to go to the Big Apple. =_________=" I wasn't too believing of this at first because you know how rumors are so so ridiculous to the point of stupidity at times? But yeah, there have been pictures and visuals. And you know a picture speaks a thousand words.

>AND I REST MY CASE. :

>Argh, have to leave now to my grandmother's house. Drags along accounting tutorial to do* Ciao.

Peacocks are not meant to be messed with. XD.

2008-05-07T20:58:00.004+08:00

>I saw the funniest thing yesterday while walking across the carpark in the Tourism Academy with Anne. There was a sign and it said: " Beware of Peacock attacks." LOLOL. I seriously had a good laugh with Anne about it. And the sign further went on to explain, with the following sentences, " The management holds no liability for any vehicles damaged as a result of peacock attacks as Peacocks are known to be particularly aggressive and will attack shiny polished surfaces, especially when it's during mating season. That is because the peacock might mistake the polished surface of the car as a competing peacock." ROFL. Dying. Dying. The sign was so so amusing, I couldn't stop laughing after that and to think it was in such a noticeable spot that we walked past everyday on the way back and to from school to the Imbiah Station. 8D

>Okay, that was wayy random, but anyway- Can't wait for tomorrow's ctkt episode. THEY BETTER HAVE AKAME SKIT. If they edit that bit out, I'd burn NTV down. Not that I care much about Kame, but I want to see Jin acting as whiny, girlfriend! 8DD

>;__________; And why isn't the Don't U ever stop PV clear version out yet. I think I'm dying from the wait, I mean, because- D:

HOW CAN ONE RESIST NOT WATCHING THIS IN HQ.

>*__________* HELLO, JIN. Licking hand fetish. Oh, I like.

Pointy toe boots are my newest obession. ♥

>I went out with my family to celebrate my younger sister's birthday today. Although the official day is tomorrow, we decided to go out today anyway. 8D We ate at Angus house for dinner, which is a funny restaurant tucked at the corner of the fourth floor near the sports section of Taka. They had ridiculous prices for the dishes, I mean, 150g of steak was $90.00. 0_______0 Gee, that price alone is enough to cover my MRT concession for 2 months. : But oh well, since it was a special ocassion and everything, I guess it was okay. I personally didn't feel the food was worth it but my younger sister liked it so that's what matters. ^^ Besides, I am not the one footing the bill. LOLOL.

> We also visited Mise, which was thankfully open and rather full as usual. I bought a chinese taiwanese magazine called Cool Music which had Yamapi on the cover and two official photo reprints, one of Jinda and the other of Pi. 8D It was great. ♥ And to add to the fact that Mise was currently airing KAT-TUN related videos on their screen and you could see a line of girls standing at the shelves and openly giggling and gaping at the screen, it was hilarous. XDD.

>Oh and I got a new pair of pointy toe boots! (Okay, not exactly new since they were my mum's friend's ones to begin with but she gave it to my mum-) They're black and so so gorgeous, I'm practically in love with them. 8D

>Gah, it's almost eleven now. ;______; Am going off to sleep, Ciao.

>Oh and HAPPY BIRTHDAY IN ADVANCE TO EMILY. ♥ You're thirteen now. XD.

DON'T U EVER STOP AMAZING ME, KAT-TUN. 8D

2008-04-23T12:57:00.004+08:00

>I can't breathe. *_____________* Not only literally since I'm having a runny nose but also figuratively because because-OMGOSH. DON'T U EVER STOP is one of the most sexiest, hottest KAT-TUN songs ever. I can totally imagine the clubbing scenes in the PV now and Jin muttering Hell Yeah, along with evil laughter=WIN. YES, HELL, YEAH INDEED. 8DD KAT-TUN MADE ME LIKE TECHNO, AND DANCE MUSIC. I never listen to both genres and I'm actually liking these? KAT-TUN, you never cease to amaze me with every release. They're probably the only je group to go into so many genres from pop to dance to ballad to pop-rock to rock to hardrock and now, techno/dance/rock/pop. *________* Worships*

>And right after the radio rip was leaked out, now, a new e-mail came from CDJapan saying that KAT-TUN will be releasing a new album called Queen of the Pirates in June.0_____0 They're getting as bad as DBSK. At least, wait a month before releasing?! ;______; But it looks so awesome and the limited edition has a dvd with the making of Don't U ever stop and the 8 minute long movie style pv which I can't resist. Furthermore, they put six senses in it. SIX SENSES. I love that song, it's so underappreciated. Stares at wallet* Oh well...I won't rush to place an order now though like everyone's doing because I want to wait till Yesasia and Amazon.co.jp put out pre-order forms respectively so that I can compare and see which is the most cost-efective one before I order. I just hope Yan Zhi won't kill me because I have yet to pay her for the KAT-TUN calendar which is still with her because we haven't found a proper time to meet up due to work/school. Oh well. ;__________;

>Am now anxiously waiting for someone to post direct links of summertime pv by NeWs in the NeWs Lj community since I cannot BT.

>Argh, my neighbour's little kid just started playing his drums. Cranks up Don't U ever stop music*

First day back. Am not loving it, at all. D:

2008-04-21T19:25:00.004+08:00

>Today was the start of a new term, the start of me being at Sentosa Tourism Academy. I HAVE ONLY ONE THING TO SAY. WHAT IS WITH THE ALMOST NON EXISTENT AIR CONDITIONING. : If this continues, I think I will be turned to a crispy black nothing before not long. I want to cry. Oh and my new classmates aren't exactly appealing either. Two girls sat next to me, just because the teacher made everyone who didn't know each other sit with each other and they kept talking across me. Like, hello. IF YOU WANT TO TALK, PLEASE CHANGE TO ANOTHER SEAT. I don't appreciate people talking over me like I'm a piece of invisible being. : Plus, the girl next to me had so many bangles on her arm, they made me dizzy. @_____@

>Luckily I have the same lecture schedule as some of my ex-classmates and it was great, sitting with them and chatting during business Ettique lecture. I had to wait an hour at Vivocity before meeting up with Anne though. D: Thank god Liting was there supporting me mentally with her sms-es. Thanks, hun! :D Anne and me happened to meet Mark when we were boarding the monorail. LOLOL. I swear Mark is as talkative as ever, honestly, he should have been born a girl considering the way he loves to erm, gossip. ^^;; And his erm, thinking that Kamenashi Kazuya is hot. =__________="

>Gawd and the food was so expensive at the food court and we had to walk such a long way just to get there and it was so hot. ;_________; And I had to stand all the way from Simei to Outram park. T________T At this rate, I will probably develop super fit leg muscles at the end of the term...Oh well.

I'm using a Kame icon, see the extent of my depression. D:

2008-04-17T17:18:00.004+08:00

>God, changing classes is so depressing, especially when I'm stuck in a class with no one I know, except for MR. (Let's call him X). ;________; Somemore, my close friends are all in another class, without me. D: Gee, I wonder how they separate our classes...Oh well.

>I seriously feel like crap, although it's all lectures and no tutorials next week. Sighhhhh... ;__________;

>Not even ctkt and their new single covers are cheering me up. I hate having to start all over again with the making friends rubbish. D: Oh well.

Can do. Can do. Flails* ________

2008-04-14T18:47:00.003+08:00

>Watched Heat island the movie yesterday and all I can say is: SHIROTA. *_______* I think he kind of rendered me incoherent for 99% of the movie. I was like Shirota. Shit. Hot. Shirota. Hot. Facepalms* So much for movie viewing. I think I was more fixated on Shirota than the actual movie. Shirota should be banned from black singlets, like Yamapi should be banned from white singlets and Jin from Doice and Gabanna underwear. Something along this theory. XDD. Gets bricked*

>I kind of can't comment much on the movie storyline because I was kind of erm-absorbed in Shirota, so- ^^;; But the movie's ending was a huh, that's it? kind of feeling, so, argh. :\ I was kind of irritated that the movie producers stuck naked girls twice in the movie. Okay, half-naked, topless caucasian girls who have boobs the size of papayas. 0________0 Erm, censors, anyone? Thank god I didn't order Heat Island this time since I already blew money on KAT-TUN's new single, but if I did, I can imagine those stupid censorship board calling like the last time I used my dad's account to pre-order Arakure Knight which was apparently rated for violence. @_______@ Oh well.

>I found a KAT-TUN video way back in 2005, when they were on Utawara and stuff. Gawd, I can't believe I haven't watched this before. 0______0 I think they just about killed all my brain cells with that performance alone with all that hip rolls and swaying. Jin, unghhhhhhh...*___* And it didn't help that he sang one of the words wrongly and erm, stuck out his tongue. And tap-danced with Junno. And rapped with Koki and sang with his face pressed close to Ueda. "Can do. Can do~~" Dies* YES, CAN DO. *________* We all know you can. And Ueda was suprisingly hot there, I think it was his hair or what he was wearing, but damn, he was hot. And of course, I still marvel at the fact that Jin and Ueda do openly teasing. I'm still reeling in a particular gif of Jin trailing his finger down Ueda made in the opening of real face PV.

>Which is why I say. Hot. Major brain pwnage. Oh, dinner now. Ciao. :)

>EDIT: Here's a link to the video I was flailing my brains over about: http://www.56.com/u34/v_MzA1OTcwOTU.html

Amusement in the process. I fail.

2008-04-13T09:43:00.003+08:00

>Went out yesterday to Taka and got myself May's Wink Up and Potato magazines. I feel kind of guilty for doing so now, but I couldn' t resist the gorgeous NeWs photoshoots in Wink up and the adorable Jin/Junno photoshoot in Potato. I mean, poodle on Junno. Monkey on Jin, like how not adorable can that be? Besides, Wink up has that infamous one question where Jin explains in english how he gets his fix of cigarettes from a convenience store. XDD.

>I also managed to dl and watch Last Friends; Chinese subbed yesterday. To be honest, it's not one of the best dramas I have seen and I think there's room for improvement but I'll just stay on it for the sake of Ryo. Haha, like he isn't the only reason I'm watching it anyway-I find myself skipping all over the non-ryo parts. Sorry Masami and Ueno Juri, apparently both of you snogging each other doesn't even relatively capture my interest. Erm, not at all. :X I have a fishy feeling they're going to make Ryo die though because at the start, Masami talks about how she wishes she could have prevented that death and I just get this gut feeling it's Ryo and that's why she's pregnant and Ryo's not there and okay, I should shut up now. :X

>Oh and out of boredom, I tried out this quiz about horoscope compatibility with KAT-TUN members and lolol,as usual my results were kind of expected...

Basically,
1 star means, ★☆☆ - a "no, no" for you. You may feel attracted by this guy, but if you'd know eatch other better, your love relationship won't work... Even a friendship would be difficult in this case! You're two different persons, which may find difficult to stay together in one place.

★★☆ - here may be chemistry between you two, but for a long term you'll for sure end up as a... friends. You would be tired of each other as a lovers, so love is barely possible here. As long you don't start fighting about silly things, warm, friendly feelings here gonna be reciprocate here.

★★★ - your perfect match! If you'd give this guy a chance to know him closer, your relationship soon gonna bloom! Of course, here's nothing like "ideal love", but this one would be very close to it!

My results:

Kame: 1 ★ (Okay, expected since it's well, KA-ME. LOLOL.)

Jin: 1 ★ (;__________; Well, face it, I kind of knew this will happen since most of the time I always get bad results for compatibility in quizzies, especially with him and my other favourite members.)

Junno: 3 ★★★ ( I always get Junno. In every single quiz. Always. Why am I not surprised.)

Koki: 2★★ (No comment on this one. =__________=")

Ueda: 3★★★ ( Again, I always get either Junno or him. Him or Junno. Entertain me somebody.)

Maru: 1★ (Which is why I said, the members I like more I never get. DD:)

>Lolol, all in all, it was a fun quiz. XDD. Perfect to kill boredom if you got too much time on your hands like mine. Here's the link to whoever wants to try it: http://kyoujintorasshu.livejournal.com/19032.html#cutid1

>Crap. I feel like shit. I think I'm coming down with something...;________; Plus, my two sisters are sick too which makes it worse. @_______@

Quiz timeeee... :D

2008-04-11T09:40:00.003+08:00

>Tried a quiz just for fun and these are my results:

Your personality type:

>LOLOL. This is amusing. I'm anything but those occupations. Honestly. Oh well.

>Here's the link to whoever wants to try it: http://www.41q.com/type.41q?p=23572566

LOLOL. NOVELISTIC DESCRIPTIONS. Someone needs a grammy for this.

2008-04-06T14:47:00.005+08:00

>Anyway, I did mention about wanting to post about the amusing magazine articles I read in this taiwanese special edition featuring KAT-TUN, so....XDD.

>I think the more interesting articles that made me laugh like an idiot were the Akame and Pin related ones. The writer seems to be a rabid fangirl of these two pairings. Although there were some facts she stated that were the truth, there were some that were so ridiculous to the point, I nearly rolled over and died laughing. :

>This is one example. In the article, the author mentions that in an article dated 2000, June, Jin said : " Kame is a bit too sensitive at times, he always makes my heart race even at the little-lest things."

Kame: "You...said such irritating stuff..(Blushes*)

Jin: "Anyway, you're too stubborn. Tell us the truth, do you think you're bad at singing?"

Kame: " Erm, about that..."

Jin: "Kame, you're not bad at singing. It's okay, have some confidence in yourself!"

>Me: =_______________=" LOLOL. And also at the parts where the author mentioned about Kame hiding behind Jin's back like some blushing bride and wrongly introducing himself as Akanishi Kazuya. Haha, yes, and yeah I'm running for presidency, didn't you know? :X LOL. I don't know whether to laugh or cry when reading the article. Oh, and the author even put quotes regarding the duo's first meeting. Let's sit back, relax and let the novel like quotes embrace us. Snorts*

[I remember clearly my first meeting with Kame. It was during the auditions, he wore a blue sports tracksuit and I wore Jeans. -Akanishi Jin ]

[It all started when Jin approached me to talk to me, at that time I thought he looked like Takizawa. -Kamenashi Kazuya]

>Aww, so touching. So Jane Austen meets sense and sensibility. Gee, I wonder what happened next. :

>I thought it was normal that Akame related articles would be written that way, but gee, the author is a pin fan too! And this was the most classic quote from the entire article (Coughs*) :
Jin: "I want to be together with Pi always, because when I'm with him, even the most boring of days will become interesting, even though Pi is NEWs leader and pillar of support, he will always be a kid to me. Good friends? Describing us this way is not enough, I think I like him, even though saying this out might seem a bit disgusting. I strongly believe that the incident of my confession in front of the deep blue sea will not change even when back in Tokyo."

>LOLOL. WOW. CONFESSION. DEEP BLUE SEA. HOW INCREDIBLY ROMANTIC. =_______=" Ms. author-san, you got to be kidding me. What next? Is Yamapi going to run after Jin Proposal Daisuken style? :X

>The author also mentioned that Pi said Jin and he were very in sync, even in terms of breathing, to which some daring fans questioned, "So how do you know this? Have you all hugged together or kissed?" @___________@ OMFG. LIKE IT'S NOT ENOUGH YOU FANGIRL OVER THE PAIRINGS IN FANFICTION, YOU HAVE TO TORTURE THEM ON THESE IN PERSON? 0____________0 I pray for the world's sanity...

>Of course, there's more like how she mentioned Pi's first Kiss was with Jin in summary when he was 19 (True) but she claimed Jin forcibly kissed him. =________=" And loads more other quite snippets but I won't list them all out, or the post will be longer than Harry Potter and the Deathly hallows. D8 But yeah, reading all these articles have made me doubt the reliability of taiwanese sources even more. Oh well, these is their way of showing their so-called entertainment value.

>This is really utter rubbish. Ciao.

Summary of my world.

2008-04-06T09:49:00.004+08:00

>Haven't gotten much time to update recently but this week had been more of a slack-ish one, but anyway a brief summary of it would be...

>Okay, fine so I'm going to cheat by skipping directly to Thursday but the first few days of the week weren't anything special, really...=________="

>Thursday: Got up early in the morning, realised everything in my closet is crumpled beyond recognition and that I have to go out in the afternoon and nothing is wrinkle free. With much effort, I managed to get the steam iron operating and ironed my jeans and shirt. It helped a little I guess. =________=" Then went out for lunch with my classmates, Anne and Shu Hui at Tampines Mall. I arrived a bit earlier since I came from town (I went there for a bit to browse at Kinokuniya. XDD;;) Then after our lunch, we went to Isetan to browse for a bit since Shu Hui wanted to get a present for her friend.

After that we headed back to my house and played bowling for about an hour plus before we decided that we were too tired to play anymore..XD. I managed to win both games even though I had this terrible score...^^;; But I guess we couldn't count it as a truly serious game since Shu Hui wasn't feeling well that day. Then, we went up to my house and I passed all the KAT-TUN related stuff in my harddrive to Anne while SH played with the hamsters before we headed down for Karaoke. The karaoke room was cool but so useless since we only just found that we have to bring our own disc in order to sing...=________=" Which is stupid really, don't you think? BRING YOUR OWN DISC. LOLOL. WHATT...0____________0

Then it started raining heavily and we had to struggle against the heavy rain to the shuttle bus stop so they could both go home. Sighs* I think the people should build more sheltered walkways here or at least turn on the lights. I mean, it was really dark. @_______@ Anyway, at about 6, we parted ways and agreed to see each other again when school re-started. XD. I really hope I end up in the same class as them. :) Changing classes is so troublesome. D8

>Friday: Nothing much, except managed to go down to Kinokuniya again and I got volume 6 of Vampire Knight manga.

>Saturday: Went to Century Square to exchange the One Pound Gospel DVD I bought on thursday since the first disc was jammed. Also bought a special edition of KAT-TUN only chinese magazine at the funny bookstore next door. It had really interesting magazines and books for sale and rental. I was lucky to come across the magazine I think...XD. Most of them were DBSK related. DD8 The magazine had really funny and weird articles though which I will post more about in the next post...LOLOL.

>Yep, that's about all for now. Ciao. :D

I'm not using a KT related icon, lolol, miracle!

2008-03-31T17:05:00.003+08:00

>I just had a sudden urge to post after reading about Iweekly featuring Yamapi and a few other celebrities like Oguri Shun, Aragaki Yui and Tamaki Hiroshi on the cover. Apparently it is an all Japan dedicated issue and they talked about Pi being the next Takuya Kimura in the next few years to come. There have also been rumors about Kurosagi the movie possibly being shown in Singapore, in about June. Honestly, I don't know whether to feel overjoyed at the prospect of it airing here (I mean that was what I was praying about all along wasn't I?) but now I feel it's better if they don't, because you get so many wannabes who claim to "love" the Japanese fandom, like a certain someone etc...I mean, look, before Deathnote the movie or Koizora aired, who knew about the existence of like Haruma Miura for example? Now that both it's aired, you see so many people who pretend to know everything about them and claim them as theirs. It's kind of sickening to the stomach, really.

>I mean, look, to fans like me for example who already watched Koizora last year online and knew about Haruma Miura as early as back in May/June (I actually made a post about him and Ryuya here, can you imagine?) , it's just darned irritating. because when I was trying to pimp him to others, no one cared. But now people are all fawning over him and pretend they know everything about him, it's just....=______=" Same as Aragaki Yui who starred in Koizora. Now, everyone's listening to Heavenly Days. It just makes me feel like NOT listening to it anymore, you know...

>Perhaps I'm over-reacting, but I suddenly feel overwhelmed. I don't want everyone to start fawning over Pi like I don't know...It's just...DD8 A selfish part of me agrees with many of the comments made in the news_jpop comm regarding whether the movie should be shown in Singapore, that it should not and we should just get the online version instead. ;______;

>Anyway, on to happier things, KAT-TUN is have decided on a Summer con which will start this July and it might be held even at a bigger venue than Tokyo Dome, wow, can you imagine? 0__0 I envy those people in Japan...Sigh* When will I be able to attend a JE concert, I wonder..
Oh and ironically, KAT-TUN got mentioned in I weekly also. Just one miserly line. Kamenashi Kazuya and Akanishi Jin are two legendary characters, the latter's popularity not being affected even though he went on hiatus. LOLOL. KAT-TUN clearly needs more loving and where did Kanjani8 go? Prods editor* Oh well.

>Messed around with Paint.net for a bit (Since PS is a pain and couldn't work) and these are the results:

>One of LT and me. LOLOL. But why did we take it in the toilet anyway...XDD;;

>This one of Debs, LT and me. Haha, the camera seems to hate me, my face is like missing half the time. =__________=" I used the monochrome effect for this one, because one can never go wrong with black and white, right? :D

>I didn't manage to use paint on the others, but I'll just stick them up here anywhere, LOL.

>I like this shot. I think it's very artistic. XDD. I know Debs would be flattered. LOLOL.

>And lastly, a nice pretty picture to end the post of rambles and complaining. XDD;;

>Gee, I feel better already. Ranting really does help. Am off to help Marianna write her Jin/Olives fic now. XD. Ciao!

I'd be more awake with breakfast.

2008-03-29T08:39:00.002+08:00

>Just realised that it's about a week since I last posted. Ah, time flies so fast. Soon, I'd probably be going to the Sentosa Campus and starting a new term already. Sighhh.

>And the sad thing is that my weekly dosage of Jinno randomness has also ended, since yesterday was the last episode of KAT-TUN style, with next week's dyanmics going back to Koki/Junno. And fridays with Kame/Junno. 0______o Even Kame has a spot now, and Jin...Nothing? Oh well, I guess it's because Yuukan club has ended for almost half a year now (Wow, it's been that long?) and yeah, they probably see no point in continuing the Jinno dyanmics. Pity, though, since I like the both of them. DD8

>Also, there's been a rumor about Shirota and Jin spotted flipping magazines with each other, before having dinner with two girls who looked like Leah Dizon and Stephanie. LOLOL. And the ironic thing is that Shirota DID post a blog entry about his magazines and posted a picture of a magazine rack with all his related magazines on it. Hmmm, amusing indeed.

>Okay, I think that's what I wanted to roughly post about. Oh and that I finally learnt how to burn DVDS in such a way to be watchable on TV! XDD. Yep, that's all. Ciao.

My Weeeek in fast forward motion. :D

2008-03-23T10:07:00.005+08:00

>So, today's sunday, the last day of the week ne...Been wanting to post for a few days now but been lagging on it. I shall just do a brief recap of what happened throughout the later part of the week starting from Wednesday.

Wednesday- I went bowling at one of the lanes in the clubhouse downstairs with my dad and younger sister. I think I'm a bit rusty. My secondary one bowling ball doesn't fit me anymore, my thumb kept getting stuck (To my dismay) and I actually found it quite heavy. Apparently, I can't carry twelve pounds anymore...DD8 I didn't get any strikes, but I managed a couple of spares, so am happy. :D According to my dad, he already booked a time slot next week to bowl again, so I guess I will be getting loads of practice. XDD;; So no worries, I guess.

Thursday- Accompanied my mother to the Chanel Fashion show at St.Regis hotel, which is apparently, a six/ seven star hotel? The interior was very spacious and the staff were really polite...^^;; Waiting for the show to start was boring. Everyone just stood around and gossiped. I just stood there and stared into space while I drank my sprite. I kept off alcohol even though the waiters/waitresses kept trying to offer me some...=_____=" The food was ridiculous. Give a big mac anytime? I am not all for the canapes and caviar rubbish. D: I guess the most interesting thing was seeing Denise Keller up close (She was so tall and so pretty. *_________*) and perhaps the fact that there were 3221685955 gay-ish looking men with swaggerish mannerisms and tight jeans. LOLOL. It was quite interesting really.

Friday- I did nothing much. It was a relax and unwind day for me. I just moped around the house, surfing the net and watching videos and TV.

Saturday-It started off all wrong, because I woke up at 4am due to stupid cramps, ate my breakfast at 5 while waiting for the panadol to take effect. I then fell asleep at 6am after re-watching KT'S kaizoban DVD. I have no life. DD8 But later in the afternoon cheered me up since I managed to meet up with Debs and Liting who I have not seen since gawd knows when. ^____^ We wanted to go to Mise but it was closed (Strangely, I went there last week and it was open) so we ended up going to Kinokuniya and taking neoprints instead. ^^;; The neoprints were adorable and we had loads of fun taking them~ :D I was randomly pressing buttons when we were choosing the format of the neoprints though so sorry for the stupid ice cream one we got, LOLOL. =___________=" Anyway, hope we can meet up more often. Miss you guys already, haha. And thank you so much for the present, LT! Especially since, the ring is so cute. <33>Listened to the recent recording of KAT-TUN style. XDD. It's so cute how the guy they called had a whole family who were Jin fans and they kept passing the phone to each other just to talk to Jin. :DD Poor Junno got ignored though. He kept going, "I'm here, you know. Taguchi Junnosuke." LOLOL. Poor boy. Oh well. What can I say, Jin enthusiasm is always good. I feel kind of sorry for Junno though. Half the time he never gets picked at the end and he's ALWAYS the one talking. Pats*

>Oh and apparently, Jin went for Kame's DBS performance yesterday. Fan reports said Jin went backstage to wish them luck and during the segments, Kame made references to Jin's character Miroku and how he was going to go home and watch Yuukan Club DVD ( Honestly, Kame, the DVD is not YET released in Japan. ) And fans reported that Jin smelt very nice. This which I find immensely funny because they actually went to smell Jin. ROFL. Sorry, but that's... =______="

>Anyway, that ends what I wanted to say. Ciao. ^^ Am so watching SC on NHK today, there's KAT-TUN VTR.

HAPPY KAT-TUN ANNIVERSARY! LOLOL. :D

2008-03-22T23:09:00.003+08:00

>Am a bit tired from movie watching (I watched Spiderwick chronicles just now with my younger sister) and shopping with my long time KC friends, Ting and Debs. Love you guys~ :DD

>But anyway, posting just to celebrate KAT-TUN's 2 year anniversary as a debuted group. Who can forget the day, two years ago, with their debuted single, Real Face? Anyway, I wish them all the best in their future endeavours and they continue to produce good music for all us fans to enjoy. HAPPY KAT-TUN 2 YEAR ANNIVERSARY!! <33

>Will do a proper update tmr. For now, this will have to do. Ciao~ ^^

I seek rational je fangirls, not the ones with batshit thinking, thank you. D:

2008-03-18T17:15:00.005+08:00

>Geez, do majority of the fangirls in the JE fandom need brain scans and check-ups? Because they are always creating wank and crap in the communities where the emphasis is on sharing. Whether be it videos, download links, scans, rumors/gossips. But lately, it's been turning into a whole lot of rubbish. So what if the translators of Pi's nikki post daily and spam the community pages? So what if there are two? It's their choice to translate and translating takes a huge amount of time and effort. I guess many people don't understand that since they have yet to do any form of translating themselves. But as a previous magazine article translator, scanner and media provider, I have learned to appreciate these people because it takes real dedication and effort to continue what they are doing. These people have a choice. They can choose to share or not, which incidentally I have decided not to.

>Because people take you for granted. They assume you will forever be there to share your scans, downloads, media, etc. They don't understand how a single comment of just the words, "Thank you." means to a uploader. Which is why I have decided to be selfish and not bother. I even avoid posting in communities now. Why bother? I have learnt the disadvantages of popularity. People might love you but at the same time, people will hate you. There will always be haters in this world, no one can change that. DD8

>Anyway, back to the inital subject, which is the posting in the news_jpop community. In fact, not long ago, a similar kind of wank post was created in the Akame community. Prehaps, the fangirls in the JE fandom are too harsh, or too stupid to understand. Some of the commenters left rather nonsensical or nasty comments in that thread. I honestly wonder why the fandom turned out to be like that. I guess it's an eye-opener for me since I was mostly in the tenimyu fandom last time and now I realise the peacefulness of it. I miss that aspect of the fandom. I know every fandom is different but sometimes, it can't hurt to show more love and a little less hate, you know?

>Furthermore, I had to read other crappy posts about Jin and Yamapi haters which seriously ruined my afternoon. Sometimes I don't know whether to love or hate LJ. It's a love/hate relationship, really. Oh well.

>This certainly helped in blowing off my frustration towards the matter. Ciao.

>Oh and Jin and Junno are WIN. ♥ They customize all the other JE group's songs with "Jin, Jin, Jin~" LOLOL. :)

It sucks you in like a tidal wave and you can't escape. D8

>For some reason, I'm feeling kind of depressed. I can't explain it but I just am. I don't know if it's because I' m pms-ing or just plain emotional, but I feel terrible. March hols are getting the better of me, I'm sure my brain is growing mould now, I so need to find something meaningful to entertain myself..

>I'm tempted to cajole my dad into letting me take japanese lessons but I don't know if he'll agree. Sigh* I'll just hope and pray for the best...That is all. Ciao.

Entertainment is sorely needed. DD8

2008-03-16T09:44:00.003+08:00

>I miss my laptop...I hope the repairs end soon. The speakers on the new PC sucks even though I'm happy about the faster speed. DD8 Now we have to nag at my dad to get better speakers...Sighs* And my right toe that I stubbed isn't quite healing. The gash re-opened again when I was cleaning my toilet yesterday. ;__________; At this rate, it will never heal. Sigh*

>And right after this, my parents' friends are coming over and I'm expected to entertain them...Geez, murder me someone...

>And that ends my random rambling. Ciao. <33

______________ PLEASE TELL ME THIS IS REAL. PLEASE.

2008-03-13T00:35:00.005+08:00

>OMFG. My results just came out. I had totally no idea it was out until Iffah and Shu Hui sms-ed me. I actually wanted to wait till tmr to check but I just felt rather scared that I had to take a supp paper and turns out all my worrying was for nothing.

>I PASSED ALL MY SUBJECTS AND GOT ALL MY CU. *_________________* ajsksl...JOY TO THE WORLD. I even scraped a B for marketing which I was so scared I would get a supp paper for. OMG. I LOVE YOU WORLD. I LOVE YOU.

>I thought I would have a bad G.P.A this sem but I managed to maintain it and it's still 3.33. *___________* I cannot express how elated I am now. Dies* I do hope sincerely that it isn't some online system typo error and I really did do as stated. =_________="

>The number of As is pathetic though. I only got A for Japanese but I guess I can't be picky since I did better than last time with no Cs at all! :DD

>Geez, I'm so ridiculously happy now I can't sleep. To think I was a bundle of nerves just minutes ago, cursing the tp website for not loading...^^;; I had to watch an Akame video to keep myself calm, can you imagine? Heaves sigh of relief, I think I'd go to sleep now.

Pine Pine...Why does it kepp raining anyway?

2008-03-12T15:32:00.007+08:00

>It's been raining the whole day and it's rather depressing, really. T_________T What's more depressing is that tomorrow's the release of my results and my bet is that I have to take supp papers for either Marketing or F&B. Sighs* I don't want to take supp paper frankly, it's such a pain but what to do? Prays* The only good thing to look forward to tomorrow is the Hokkaido segment of CTKT where Maru and Jin do shovelling and play with kids.

> On the other hand, I adore my new jin icon. Jin with guitar. LOVE. LOVE. ♥ Geez, photobucket is down. Pity. I so wanted to shove the gifs someone posted in the KT comm. They are adorable. :DD

>Hope the GIFS work. How can you watch this and not go, "AWwww.." I want Sea otter and Kame as my pets. They can share my bed. XDD. Gets bricked*

>And OXY. Koki and Jin look so darned cute in the CM, I forgot it was supposed to be a cm and for men's shampoo and facial lotion, mind. LOLOL.

>And now I shall mope at the thought that I have to be dragged out to PP when I could just stay at home and stone. =____________="

Do they even sell OXY here?

2008-03-10T15:31:00.002+08:00

>My laptop wireless died on me. Woe. T_________T Three more days to announcement of results. I'm kind of scared because I'm afraid I will get notice of supp papers. DD8 Especially marketing, I'm so screwed. DD8

>But this new cm by Jin and Koki for OXY was cute. ♥ LOLOL. Jin hitting Koki's face with a towel, going "Urusai." XDD.

>And that is what I wanted to flail about. LOL.

If I had one wish, I would wish... :D

2008-03-07T13:48:00.000+08:00

>I just checked my pictures folder and found almost ten identical icons of the same person, in the same suit at the same time, except with different colouring textures and wordings. I have no life, really. =____________=" I deleted a couple though just to clear out my pictures folder but there's still plenty. I don't know why but I can't help saving icons with nice textures, they are just... *______* As to the icon here, three guesses as to who the person is. I think I make it pretty obvious, don't you think?

>No one's uploaded a decent quality of CTKT yet, geez, is everyyone dead? Apparently, there was some problem with clubbox and Gogobox the day before but well, sighs* Oh well, didn't miss out much anyway, I'm not a fan of this week's guests. Much too too noisy for my liking.

>It's about 2pm. Later, some people are coming over to fix the new curtains. DD8 What a pain if you ask me, I much rather enjoy some alone time rather than have people barging in and out, but looks like I don't have a choice do I? BAH.

>Talking about hair, I don't know what to say about this...

>Junno. ;_____________; What have you done to your previously wavy hair? DD8 His hair is so short now I want to weep. But Kame's hair tied up like that reminds me of his pre-debut, nobuta days. LOLOL. And Jin and Maru look way adorable.0( ^__________^)0

>I guess it's end of my ramblings? Haha, I shall go watch Galileo episodes 09 and 10 now. Ja~

I need a good source of entertainment. D8

2008-03-06T10:07:00.000+08:00

>Geez, it keeps raining outside since yesterday. Apparently, according to my mum who watched the weather reports, it will keep raining till saturday. How depressing, really, but oh well, I do hope it doesn't rain on Sunday during Shu Hui's BBQ, or it'll be really troublesome. DD8

>Watched this week's cartoon KAT-TUN just now and this week's wasn't so entertaining, I guess it's because I don't really like the guests since they are so so noisy. But I can't wait for next week's episode because NakaJin in Hokkaido and shovelling snow and chopping wood and the week's after next episode because that had BOA in it. *______* How awesome can that be? :D

>Also, Akame fangirls are at it again. LOLOL. I'm amused and half tempted to leave a comment in that thread, but I shall resist for now. Clearly, they are so deluded in thinking Akame exists. Face it, it's a pretty pairing and everything, but clearly, they have their own lives and the chances of any of them being cough* together is like almost zero. Oh well...To me, it's a clever connocted marketing strategy by Johnny Kitagwa for marketing purposes. Or maybe because I'm a biased, biased pin fangirl. LOL. :P

>On the other hand,from the DreamBoys 2008 pamphlet, Johnny has pretty good command of the english language. Geez, I wonder why. =_____________="

>Oh, and I dyed my hair yesterday, it's now an ugly maroon mocha brown. I initally wanted it to be orange-ish caramel but I decided against it, because like my younger sister said, I would look weird and I don't think I want to look like a neon traffic light. o____0 Though it looks awfully good on Jin though and I can't explain why...Facepalms* But the saloon lady kept encouraging me to dye it really brown black and I wanted to tell her, yeah you might as well dump the whole jet black dye on my hair then. =__________=" BAH.

>And, I can't wait for my KT 2008 calendar to arrive because...*_____________* Points at picture on top* Jin. Dark eyeliner. OMFG. a;sjskdld;...I can't breathe. Dies and implodes*

>Johnny Kitagawa, I detest you for robbing my money. D:

Helloooooooo, wahaha, back. <33

2008-03-04T15:23:00.000+08:00

>I just realised the sheer amount of spacing in time where I have yet to post an entry on this blog. LOLOL. My blogspot is so seemingly dead.

>Went to watch L change the world last saturday at Shaw house. It was okay, really. Not as good as the previous two movies but reasonably funny and it kept my attention. Probably one of the reasons is because I like L. Haha, sorry Raito. But food seemed to love my clothes on Saturday. First I dropped carrot cake all over my clothes and I had to wash them, next I dropped the double cheeseburger I was eating all over my shirt when I was watching the movie. =_______=" Sighs* What can I say? The food loves me. Haha.

> I heard that Koizora is airing this week in cinemas and I want to watch! Although I watched a bit on tudou regarding it and I already know the ending, I still want to give it a shot because Aragaki Yui is so so pretty and Haruma Miura is *___________* And the soundtrack is fab. It was much much better than Virgin Snow. Lee Jun Ki just got more and more boring as I stared at him. Oh well.

>Anyway, rotting at home is such a pain. I can't wait for next week's hols to start so I can go with my ex secondary friends. Ting, Debs, Rachel, Miss you guys! :DD

>And this concludes my randomness. I should really start working on that fic I promised Anna but it's coming out like rubbish. DD8

Rant? T_________T And spazz.

2007-10-12T17:17:00.000+08:00

>I'm been swamped with mosquito bites from head to toe. DD: Because of the recent constant raining, it seems that the garden outside my house has turned into mosquito land. And I'm their sole object of affection. Wohoo~ NOT. And right after lunch, because of the heat, I developed a headache and now my head hurts like hell. D: Thank god for panadol pills, though I don't know how long it will hold off the headache though. I don't really like to rant about such mundane things but yeah, I'm having the time of the month, a headache and mosquito bites so basically, am not a happy trooper today.

>On the other hand, I want to say that I LOVE JUNNO'S HAIR. ♥♥♥♥♥♥ I thought it was weird at first but now I think it makes him look so darned pretty and elegant. I mean, just look at it! (Points at icon above*)

>Uepi has tough competiton. But yeah, Ueda's hair will always be number one for me. Still holds stupid notion of marrying Ueda's hair*

IT'S HERE! AND FULL OF PRETTY! _______

2007-09-28T10:07:00.000+08:00

>So amazon.co.jp sends me a e-mail saying: Your order has been shipped last night. It's morning already and where's my order?!! T____________T I want to see the photobook so bad. Gah. I HATE Fedex.

>And yes, I'm writing in here because I decided my blogspot has been dead enough and needs some new posts to show that it is indeed alive. :P

>I wanted to do this meme for a long time but haven't gotten the time, so now I should do it, since I am bored. :P
Taken from someone's LJ:
1.Post 10 open letters to 10 of your favourite Johnny Entertainment members. Do not reveal their names.
2.Let your friends guess!

Okay, here goes...

1. You are what got me into the fandom into the first place. I remember that I took one look at your dancing and lost all coherency. Sometimes, I feel I do not understand you, you seem so pretty and innocent at one moment and then serious at times. But that I think, is who you are and no one can change it. :)

2. I honestly did not fancy you at first. I never understood why girls threw themselves at you and said you had a nice body. I always thought they were a tad mad. But then before I knew it, you grew on me and now I think you are awesome with your cool, quiet exterior but yet seemingly dorky at times when with your close friends.

3. You always smile and I like how your eyes crinkle up and they give me this feeling of warmth for some reason. I cannot believe at times how I neglected you in the fandom for so long and never managed to get your name right until recently when I went back into the fandom.

4. You make me incoherent. Whatever you do, your actions,your dance moves, your smile, your manner of speech and your dorkiness. You amaze me with your funniness at times~ You are the reason why I started liking 02# in the first place. You two make me happy~^^

5.You are probably one of the most special artistes I have seen that is not afraid to speak up his mind. Your sarcasm and blunt answers always have me laughing and jumping in my seat and your boyish grin is infectious.

6. Your name like number 03# always seemed forgettable at first. I always mixed you up with someone else from another fandom. It was always, " Ahh, that one" but not your name. D: But lately, I think you have grown on me quite a bit and you give me the impression of a very understanding person that cares for your group's welfare.

7. I only started taking serious notice of you after watching Utaban. Your perkiness and constant giggles when questioned by others made me laugh. And no, I wouldn't mind if you sent me short perky sms-es. (I wish..XD;;)

8. You have like the best hair ever. I want hair like that. XD. It's so shiny and in place all the time, it makes me jealous. And you are so random at times but serious and quiet at other times. I'm starting to see a diferent side of you and I think that's great. :P

9.You became pretty. Like really pretty. I didn't recall you being so shiny and pretty last time but now you are. And I love how you irritate a certain someone in your group and play with the others.

10. You make me laugh. Period. And how you view certain groups as your rivals amazes me.

END. Well, that was long. Shakes fingers from typing too much and too fast* I think they are numb. D:

Alive? YES.

2007-09-24T07:54:00.000+08:00

>Just posting to show that I'm alive. Barely alive but yes, I am. :) Thanks to LT for waking up my dead blogspot. ^^;; Sometimes keeping many blogs is just really time-consuming...

~Why why love review~+Ramble...

2007-06-25T18:17:00.000+08:00

>So tired today...Thanks to Mrs Thomas who cancelled OB tutorial and made us wait 4 hours for OB lecture. I didn't attend lecture anyway though I did go for lunch at Bedok Interchange with Shu Hui and her group and we browsed TM for a while...I was trying my best to brainwash Anne into watching Tenimyu since she's hooked onto Tenipuri now...XDD.
>Anyway, first day of new term at school=BLAH. DD:
>But this cheered me up considerably...Why Why Love episode four! ^^ This drama is a recent addition to my " must STALK" drama lists. It's got the lovely Mike He inside and I think he displays really good chemistry with Rainie and Kingone. ^^
>A simple synopsis of this would be that Rainie acts as Tong Jia Di, a poor girl whose family is debt-ridden. One day, during a company carnival she encounters the two bigshots of the company, the director's sons, Huo Yan (Kingone) and Huo Da(Mike He). They happen to chance upon the exchange coupon Jia di is currently selling, inclusive of a exchange of love ticket.
>Rating: YET UNKNOWN. (Only on fourth episode.) :D

Seito shokun review~^^

2007-06-20T11:22:00.000+08:00

>Another teacher-student drama? Oh no, not another Gokusen rip-off. I mean how many times can you watch a noisy, unbehaved class run around with weapons and trying to scare their teachers out of their wits? Well, this is not the case in Seito Shokun.
>I love the realistic approach Seito Shokun takes towards education in school nowdays. I mean, it isn't realistic to have mere high school students going on drugs and all that rubbish, isn't it? Instead, Seito Shokun targets the student's every day to day problems, oh well not exactly, you have a kid whose money gets exorted by his former friends, a kid who's traumatised by a bad mountain climbling trip, a girl who's sucidal and many other examples. Well, basically, Seito Shokun! is about students who do not trust teachers, teachers who give up faith in education, parents who blame schools for their children's misbehavior... Naoko was at a loss when she was assigned as a new high school teacher. Times have changed and students are no longer easy to control, but she chose not to look away. Instead, Naoko reaches out to try and discover the various issues hidden in the modern education system.
>Uchiyama Rina's acting is okay but I think the kids acting were great. Especially Horikita Maki's acting as a sucicidal kid with problems. She deserves an adward for that, really. And Hongo as her loyal follower aka admirer is also very cute~ ^^ Shirota Yuu's acting as a dork like always. But a lovable one.XD. And Ryuya, my newfound "crush" from this series is just pure LOVE. :DD
>I just finished episode 10 of Seito Shokun and I had to admit that it really touched me. I loved how the kids all showed their vulnerable sides of themselves as they begged their beloved teacher not to go. Definitely ten times more touching then Gokusen. :D
>Rating: 4/5 (Make time for it!! ^^)

Tatta Hitosu no Koi review...

2007-06-20T11:10:00.000+08:00

>Okay, I know this drama was aired last year around december but I'm slow so I didn't manage/want to watch it until recently out of curiousity regarding the girl actress, Ayase Haruka. ^^ (Since she's acting with dear Kazuki this July, I thought I might as well do some research on her...)
>Basically, it is a story of pure love between the son of a man who runs a ship repair factory beset with financial troubles and the well-bred daughter of a national jewelry chain store owner. The backdrop of the story is Yokohama.
If you feel you have lost the purity of your soul by watching stories about womanizers seducing impudent women, or by carrying out calculated maneuvers in your own love life, here is a story for you. A boy and a girl from highly different social backgrounds meet and fall in love. Their love, of course, faces a lot of obstacles. The setting is in Yokohama, a modern port city known for its romantic atmosphere. Hiroto Kanzaki (Kazuya Kamenashi) works hard every day and night for the survival of a small ship repair factory (inherited from his father) as well as the survival of his mother and younger brother, who are suffering from health problems. Living such an underprivileged life, Hiroto has forgotten how to smile. In contrast to him, Nao (Haruka Ayase) is the daughter of a popular jewelry shop owner in a fashionable street in Yokohama. She attends a prestigious exclusive women's college and grew up cheerful and blessed with affluent love. From the moment Hiroto meets her, his closed mind slowly opens up to Nao, who is so innocent that she utters whatever she thinks. Their three close friends, who are also 20 year old's, play an important role in their developing relationship.
(Okay, so I "stole" the description from DramaWiki. I can't come up with sypnosises like this for nuts. D:)
>Tatta Hitosu no Koi- I feel would have been much better if they were less draggy in their attempt to explain the reasons being such frown upon love? I felt as if I had to force myself to continue watching after the sixth episode. It just got into the routine you know, Nao quarrels with him, makes up with him, is happy, quarrel again. D: You know...And yes I'm saying this not because I don't like Kamenashi Kazuya. No offence to fans of his. ..
Overall Rating:2.5/5

14 Sai no Haha review...

2007-06-18T11:31:00.000+08:00

>So, I'm at home stuck with a grumpy person. D: But I finally finished watching 14 Sai no Haha. It was pretty good~ I liked the ending and the photograph taking thing kinda reminded me of one litre of tears. The drama is about an average junior high school student who becomes pregnant with her lover’s child and makes the ultimate decision to give birth to it despite the fact that she's only fourteen years old. The drama will show her gradually maturing as the circumstances around her change.
>Come to think of it, I really didn't expect much at first but this drama taught me the importance of life and the miracles it can bring. Shida Mirai, I feel has lots of potential and we can expect much more from her in the near future. Haruma Miura (the reason why I got into the drama in the first place) isn't quite as good, but I liked him all the same. ^^ Overall, a good drama on the whole that one should make time for....
Overall rating: 3.5/ 5

Hinokio review...Sort of...^^

2007-05-26T13:02:00.000+08:00

>I finally got to watch this show after searching through loads of videos on crunchyroll.com... :D Someone was kind enough to upload the movie~
>The movie sparked my interest because it had Hongo Kanata starring in it and also because it was about Hongo's character who through the robot was taught by his friend, Jun how to love and about friendship all over again after his mother died a few years back.
>Hongo's acting here was really good. He's really such a talented actor ne...^^ I love how he protrays his loneliness and how he shows that he''s baffled at the thoughts of actually liking the opposite gender. Maki Horikita stars for a while in here as Hongo's "crush".
>Overall rating:3/5

Phew~0(>_<)0

2007-05-25T18:27:00.000+08:00

>Yes! Done with all the tests this week. Good riddance. :D I think I screwed my Excel test today. ;_; Made so much mistakes. D: But INHT was okay, I think I'll do fine... I got chosen for July's international Epilespy Congress for the Monday shift, meaning we have to work over the weekend too. ;_; And if we're unlucky for twelve hours. Damn, the pay better be good.

>I hope we can watch POTC3 tomorrow...

Liar game review~

2007-05-23T08:29:00.000+08:00

>I'm hooked.I love this show. :D Basically, the story is about ed. I love this showToda Erika playing an honest college student, Kanzaki Nao, who receives a million dollars one day, along with a card saying she has been chosen to take part in the "Liar Game". The aim of the game is to trick the other players out of their one million dollars. At the end, the winner gets one million dollars and the loser is one million dollars in debt. Horrified, Nao tries to contact the game organizers to give them their money back. Her old high school teacher offers to help, but it turns out he actually is her opponent in the game, and easily tricks her out of her million dollars. Coincedentally, Nao notices a newspaper article one day regarding an ex-swindler named Akiyama Shinichi. Desperate, she contacts him for help. And then the game to get her money back begins.
>I'm still working on this series. Currently finished watching episode 9 and waiting for the tenth. ^^

Fangirling over Ryuya and Miura!

2007-05-18T07:56:00.001+08:00

>This is bad. I know I have developed an unhealthy obession over Ryuya Wakaba and Miura Haruma. And the fact that Miura's my age and Ryuya's a year older than me doesn't help at all...:D
>I mean, just look at Ryuya...

>I totally forgot about where I have seen him but was reminded when I surfed around blogs which mentioned that he acted as Maki Horikita's love interest in Nobuta wo Produce.

>As for Miura, I developed an interest in him through the May issue of Junon magazine. :D

>I found out that he's my age and from the same company as Sakurada Doori and Aoyagi Ruito of Tenimyu from AMUSE. :D
>Fangirling is good for the soul~I feel happy already!

Ulysses movie review~

2007-05-17T16:16:00.000+08:00

>I finally finished downloading Saito Takumi's 2006 movie, Ulysses. It had a rather philosophical meaning to it, I think. Of what I could make sense of the movie anyway...Despite it being subbed, I still couldn't get many parts of the movie...I googled Ulysses and found out it was a 20th century novel, written by James Joyce and it is considered one of the best modern literature works of that time. It speaks of Odyessus and Penelope. I'm not sure of how much the movie is based on the novel, but the movie struck me as deeply thought provoking, leading us to question the value of life as the main character searches for the blue butterfly she associates with a little boy very close to her heart. On the way in her search, she encounters two guys, one which she falls in love with, as she relieves her childhood memories with him, which is incidentally is played by Saito Takumi.

>I have to say, Takumi is a great actor, I believe he has a lot of potential. He shows a relaxed, carefree yet blatantly naive character here unlike in Boys Love where he was always brooding and never believed in love. He has a lot of chemistry with his co-actors, and also the sole reason why I got into watching this movie in the first place. :D I have yet to understand the movie fully but I think I have to read the actual novel to understand it better...
Overall rating of Ulysses:2.5/5

>Okay, done with movie review...Takuya, you amaze me. 0_o GAWD.

Just babble~

2007-05-14T21:03:00.000+08:00

>Blogger is being a pain. I don't know why, but it ain't cooperating and now when I post stuff, I can't post pictures by clicking add image, which means I have to load my pictures to photobucket whatsoever before I can post them here. Come on, my Lj account is being so much more cooperative. Arghhh.
>Today was uberly boring, come to think of it, I nearly fell asleep on the bus. OB's Marslow's theory and the Equity theory is really not fascinating.DD: Plus, tomorrow, I got school all the way to six. Can you imagine the horror? 0_o I hate Tuesdays and I still haven''t gotten my research for comm skills done. Why did I choose single gender relationships out of all the topics given?!! Oh well, Xinling and Shermin are doing that topic too, since the rest are boring and not challenging at all. D:
>Watched Seito Shokun episode 4 today. I'm so glad the guy and the girl finally came back to school~They made the teacher so happy. :D I don't understand why the show isn't doing well in Japan. I think it's not bad and they have pretty strong actors and actresses like Hongo Kanata, Shirota yuu and Maki Horikita. :D
>Air Gear myu and team bachuus are LOVE. Hamlet, Puck, Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet. They all act like their own characters...XD.
>Shall spam the rest of my entry with Air Gear myu screencaps~:DD

Hamlet acting all dramatic. XD.

Romeo and Juliet. Dies* All that....

More Romeo and Juliet Love. I'm laughing so hard, my stomach hurts. They totally twisted the original characters. Juliet became a guy.

Takumi's movie review...

2007-05-01T16:51:00.000+08:00

>I have seriously nothing to say about Takumi's recent short film/movie. I downloaded it at first out of curiosity, wondering if it was a freak/horror show and it turned out to be a complete laughing stock. There were stupid animations when the heads fell off and Takumi's weapon looked more like discus than a weapon. I think the whole point of the show was staring at how awesome he looked in that get up. The plot was utter rubbish, the music was cheesy and Takumi had so much sparkles when cutting the customers' hair, you could have sworn he was as good as aiba's character in Deli gaku...

>Overall rating: 1/5 (Really, don't waste your time. Don't even bother.D:)

>Talking about Deli Gaku, I do hope someone posts episode five soon...I feel like watching it...:D

>Why must I exprience this hellish pain every freaking month?! I swear I should have been born as a male or something...At least I wouldn't have to suffer...Moans* The only good thing was that Kazuki's 2007 wall calendar finally reached my house yesterday, thanks to tnarcheska's help. :D It's really lovely and knowing that his calendars are all sold out and yet I managed to get one gives me a sense of satisfaction...

>I watched Seito Shokun episode 2 and Happy Boys episode 3. I love Kenken and Shindo Gaku, they are so funny and hot headed as a pair~Squishes*

>Now I'm trying very hard to dl episode 4...DD:

Tada kimi wo aishiteru movie review~:D

2007-04-30T08:09:00.000+08:00

>I watched Tada Kimi wo aishiteru also known as Heavenly Forest yesterday~ It was a beautiful touching sad love story between this guy who has a weird sickness that plaqued him since young that makes him itch at a certain spot when exposed to chemical gas fumes and a girl who has a rare genetic disease.Both of them lack experience in love but unexpectly fall head over heels for each other..In fact the guy doesn't even know he loves her until she leaves him to go to New york. Eight years later when he does go to new york, he learns an unexpected truth about her...

>I seldom fancy love stories and I'm not the type that goes all weepy at those stuff but this is really good in the sense that it doesn't try to be artifical, their love is real and awkward just as beginners should be...Tamaki Hiroshi does a great job in acting as Makoto all lost and confused in the realm of love and Aoi Miyazaki stands out more here in HF than in NANA.

>I really reccomend this movie for everyone to watch. It's lovely and subtle and brings tears to your eyes.

Overall rating: 4/5
