07/05/08 - And now for the INconvienences

Edit: I’m very sorry for all the wrong links in this entry, I’ll be fixing them right now. I’m %100 sure I put the links in though, and, I’ve had this problem before. I copy my old entries and just use them to make new ones, and for some reason sometimes WordPress doesn’t compute that I’m putting in new links. SO yeah, this place sucks balls, and I think I’m going to be moving. Thanks Chrissi for letting me know.

Man, WordPress is being a HUGE pain in the ass. I haven’t been able to update like I meant to two days ago… it’s weird, it’s just randomly putting in hundreds (I’m not joking, there’s hundreds) of <p> codes for no reason. It’s even changing the aligns of everything, for no reason. Itès even making my questions marks and apostrophes come out as És and Ès and etc - it’s not just my keyboard, because this only happens typing in WordPress. It’s ridiculous. I have to copy and paste ’s and question marks just to use them. Anyway, the hundreds of <p> codes made my prvious entry freeze up, so I can’t edit it anymore. I have to redo it all over again.

I’m really suggesting another moving, probably to BlogSpot, for many reasons. WordPress doesn’t support flash (meaning I can’t put a wicked playlist on the side), I can’t make my own layout (I have to use theirs and go from that), they lower the quality of my layout pictures terribly, and now these problems.

I don’t really wanna move though, because I just DID…. you know?

Anyway…
Summer has truly begun-!! 8D;;;;;

I never thought I’d be so busy. With my new computer, new tablet, Ichi at home now, and plus my suummer JOB, Tranquil Lullaby has seem to come last among all of these things. ;;; Don’t worry, I’m quitting… I’m too addicted to blogging and giving out music to people. :D I just may be a little bit slower than usual… TT^TT;;;

With all this space on my computer, I’ve been doing liiike… 10 things at once ahahha. ;;;; It’s awesome; I can download ANIME again!! 8D;;; I just finished Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei (funnnyyyy) and am now onto Shakugan no Shana (not sure what I think about it yet?). I’ve also got the whole Strawberry Panic series, which I’m not sure if I’m going to watch yet…. ;;;

Any anime recommendations? D I like things that arn’t too mainstream (no Full Metal Alchemist/Naruto plx) and things that are obscure or funny (Zetsubou Sensei plz) and yuri is nice too, just not stereotypical (Strawberry Panic; oh we can’t do this here-!! ;;;).

…Wow, I’m picky, arn’t I? 8D;

Since I got my new shiny wicked Wacom Intuos 3, I’ve been cging frequently as well~ it doesn’t stopppp-! ;;;

Haruhi fanart (my first fanart in awhile)

And I got a better picture of my complete water colour I posted some entries ago.

Also an acrylic piece I did for my final! ;;

Ehm, I also went to that beach party last weekend, (I was able to wear my bikini in the end-!! …Though it was reeeaaally nerve wracking =A= *Held her stomache as she waddled into the water LOL..*) as well, and I also attended a Canada party… but there isn’t much to say about those, because I pretty much just always sit there like a rock. =A=;;; *Epic faaaaaaaaaaaail*

Anyway, I don’t have too much to say today. ;;; Uhmm, I’m going to my old school’s prom next Wednesday…? 8D Buahahah.. ;;;

I added previews this time!! : D I don’t know if I’ll be doing this every entry, but if I have time, I will!)

Genki Rockets - Never Ever
|| 3:28 || english/japanese || electronicapop ||

Comments: I just picked up Genki Rocket’s debut album. After really learning the truth about the “band”, I don’t know what to think about them; it kind of irks me… D_D;;; Apparently the band is made up of several girls, and the mixers mix their voices into one, to create the virtual band - and a character names “Lumi” who came from space. Something like that. When listening to their music, it just bugs me knows that the vocal’s arn’t one person… I’m being fooled-!! ;;;; Besides this fact, this tune is nice. It’s Genki Rocket’s only piano ballad to date, so you can hear the vocals very well. Even then, it’s actually hard to tell that it’s not just one person… (The several singers arn’t known by name, but I have a feeling one of them is Yuna Ito, 1. Voices/English pronounciation are similar & 2. Yuna Ito is from the same record ppl~ yes.)

YUI - Laugh Away (Acoustic)
|| 4:19 || japanese || pop||

Comments:  Again, i’m not sure what to say about YUI’s music lately… personally, I think it’s went down a little, but that’s just ,me. She’s as talented as ever, her melodies are just decreasing in like.. happy feelings. For me. ;;;; For an acoustic version, I find this one kind of boring (especially since I’ve already heard the original which is 10 times more awesome). Sometime her songs sound good in acoustic version. This one, to me, does not. Recommended if you liked the original, though. The rest of her SUMMER SONG single tracks (SUMMER SONG, oh My God) can be found in the music dump below. :3

Angela Aki - Jiyuu no Ashiato
|| 4:06 || japanese || pop ||

Comments:  Baaaaaaahhhh, why wont Angela Aki come out with anything new?? I think it’s been like, over half a year. I’m deeply saddened by this. ;_; I just got her whole discography recently, and took a fancy to this song. The start kind of annoys me though (lets see how long I can sing a tune with the same two piano notes!). You might recognize the chorus. It follows both the lyrics and melody of another Angela Aki song. I think it’s Kiseki. She also did that with Home/Sakurairo too, I think. It’s interesting. :3 Anyway, recommended for Angela Aki fans~

Caramel - Carameldansen (Ryu Remix)
|| 4:24 || finnish?oshitiforget || trancepop ||

Comments:   It’s 10x faster than the speedycake remix-!!;;; Well, at least five times… I find it a lot more fun to listen too. 8D Japan’s so into this song right now (they call it the… uma uma song, I think ;;;; ). I got this off the Japanese Carameldansen remix album, about six tracks or so~ there’s even a Japanese rap remix, it’s really fun. 8///D;

Mihimaru GT - Itsumademo hibiki kono melody
|| 4:32 || japanese || poprap ||

Comments:  I got into Mihimaru GT so late!! They’re so cute! *_* They have such a distinctive style of music. Pop+rap, but the vocals make it really stand out. This song has many different faces to it… it’s a mix between cute/ballad/rap. Usually I’d find that a weird mix, but they really made it work.

Buono! - Last Forever
|| 3:51 || japanese || pop ||

Comments: Kind of late on picking up their debut album, but that’s okay, because it wasn’t great overall anyway. *Oh burn.. sorry Buono* Last Forever is the only one that really sticks out to me. It has a nice melody and ballad components. A nice listen, if you’re into Morning Musume, Berryz Kubou, w/e, etc etc… Buono!’s cute though, they actually have a fairly distintive style, despite they’re in Hello Project.

Ayaka Hirahra - Eternally
|| 4:07 || japanese || popballad ||

Comments: I just got Ayaka Hirahara’s best album recently, and I’m very addicted to her muisc… she has some of the best ballads I’ve ever heard. What really capurted me at first with this song, was, the beginning. It sounds very haunting, and very pretty, but as the song begins, it has a whole different feel. However when we get into the next transistion into the second verse, we see how the hauntingness fits~ do you get it? ;;; Anyway, her high notes are wonderful, and this is a really beautiful love song… I don’t even know if it’s a love song (though it probably is), it just SOUNDS like a love song. It’s gorgeous, and has a whole bunch of sappy goodness. ;3;

06/21/08 - New convienences

**New contest up! Aria: Sorry I’ve been so late with your Hibari; it’ll be finished before I post my next entry. ;u;**

 I’m back-!! :////D
I think I uploaded… six songs today? Under my picks. Twice as much as usual, anyway. X’D I have a whole bunch of new singles in the music dump as well.

But, as I was going to say~ I got my new computer!! :D It’s so… so… *////*
…It’s the most pimped out lap top I’ve ever seen. ;3; …Well, not in appearence, but it has amazing feats. ;o__o; I don’t know too much about computers, but the guy at Future Shop made it sound incredible. *_*;…

Ehm, it has… an awesome graphics card (I’m not sure what it’s called, but, I know it’s the best for a laptop) 4 gigs of ram, 260 internal gigs, and I got a 500 gig external as well (where all my music is located so it can never ever be erased again : DDD!), and I’m waiting for my Wacom Intuos 3 (it’s a tablet) to come in the mail as well. @u@; I said the tablet was unecessary (because I already have one, it’s just like … way way smaller, about the size of my hand), but my Mom told me I should have it because that’s what my college class required lol. D: ;;;;; (But… not that I’m complaining…? 8D;;;…)
IT’S EVEN FINGERPRINT-PROTECTED 8//D;;;…!?

I’ll have to be giving my mom all my job money though, LOL. ;;;…

So uh, I guess I’ll be working on a lot more cgs and my manga more often too, I’m so excited for that. :///D On my old computer I couldn’t CG whatsoever because it froze every minute or so. It sucked baaaalls. ;__; …

I also couldn’t download Anime; it was difficult to even watch it streaming… +_+;…
A-and now I’ve got the whole season of Zetsubou Sensei in a few days. :’D I’m so happy-! (By the way, has anyone else seen it? It’s pretty different, isn’t it? ;;; )

Oh, as I mentioned last time, my prom was $40 (g-gahh-!!), so I just didn’t go lols. ;;;;
However, last day of school, I visted my old school. The one in town. And some people said I should go to it. It’s only $20 for a couple anyway, so I’ll be going to that one. : D

While I was there I visted a few people. In particular, I visted my older teacher (the one I mentioned in this entry, the one I have a crush on lolssss). I told him how I was doing and told him how the school was treating me.
I said that overall it was a good experience (even if it only lasted a semester), but for some reason I still felt empty –  not %100 happy there.

Then he told me, rather bluntly, “maybe you’re not destined to be happy“.

What he meant was, I guess, the person I want to be. Who i really want to be, is a social butterly - being that kind of person looks great, but, I don’t think I’d ever have the confidence to be it. He’s right though, maybe I’m not destined — until I’m much older.
But I am happy, because who I am right now suffices. : D I’m a quite artist with a couple of good friends. I’m sure being a social butterfly has it’s perks, but it probably has it’s bad little things too…

My teachers who I visited, however, told me they could tell I had gained confidence. I was able to talk to a few more people on my own too; it was great-! : D

Overall though, I really do miss that school. TTwTT
S-so I’ll be going to my own school’s prom instead. ;w;

Anyway, enjoy the songs I posted, and thank you always for reading. <3

YUI - SUMMER SONG (PV Rip)
|| 3:28 || japanese || pop ||

Comments: YUI’s new single is here-!! …Nothing too special, though. To me, anyway. It’s a good YUI song, but I don’t love it. Just like. :3 It’s definiately not bad, and it’s very summery indeed. The only thing I don’t love about it is it’s Countryish sounding edge. I’m not crazy about country. X’D It’s YUI though, and it still follows her nice acoustic style. A must-download for YUI fans! When the good version comes out, I’ll upload that as well. :3

Hitomi Yaida - Not Still Over
|| 5:16 || japanese || popjazz ||

Comments: I remember back in the day I used to love Yaida Hitomi. I’m not sure why, I guess it’s just the way her nasal went with her funky songs. I took a listen to this one again, and realized myself, I’m most definately “not still over” this song-!! …Ahaha.. *shot so hard* Very funky, though, very jazzy, really fun to listen to. You get sick of it pretty fast (in my opinion) but it’s a good listen. :3
|| download ||

Nana Mizuki - Zankou no gaia
|| 4:06 || japanese || pop ||

Comments: Instead of just kind of admiring all the Nana Mizuki songs I had, I finally said to myself, “ok wtf I need some more” so I went out and got some. :D Very amazing, she’s an extremely talented artist-! I’m not sure if she composes/writes her own music, but the composistion of this song is… everything. It has it’s really cute moments, (especially the “yeah!” parts) and it’s cool moment (what is that main instrument used at the start? it sounds so epic). Upbeat and epic. Not to mention Nana Mizuki’s vocals are superb like always. I can’t explain it any other way…
|| download ||

Aya Kamiki - Kimi Sarishi Yuuwaku
|| 3:30 || japanese || poprock ||

Comments: Aya Kamiki’s new single. Personally, I find it very standard. Just like Aya’s other songs. Rock based with a bit of pop… the beat and melody is nice. Very standard. I do suggest it if your a Kamiki fan though, or if you’re looking for a good J-pop song.
|| download ||

Crystal Kay - Namida no Saki ni
|| 3:51 || japanese || pop ||

Comments: Crystal Kay’s newest single. Very fun and upbeat, and different from her bubblegum pop stuff. I just love her music! It always give me a great feeling, even if it’s a piano ballad (which are wonderful, btw…). This song’s very cute, and very fun, a good summer song… I highly suggest it if you’re looking for something cute and upbeat and summery-! :D

Anna Tsuchiya feat. AI - Crazy World (FPM Hyper Society Mix)
|| 6:56 || japanese || rocktrance ||

Comments: I feel a little bit sinful putting up the remix before putting up the actual song. T3T This is Anna Tsuchiya’s new single, and I’m pleased to say, it’s a good listen-! The actual song - not the remix - (I threw it in the music dump if you wanna listen) is too slow for me. It’s alright, but I’m a sucker for fast remixes such as this. Plus, Anna’s voice is so heavenly and sexy. ;o;! And AI is a good assition to the song (I’ve always liked her music; even her rap I liked. :3) A very catchy, dancy awesome beat song over all. Not crazy about the last few minutes of it though. (Oh, anyone who’s played Earth Bound.. uhh.. those warbly beats in the song, totally remind me of the game-!! o3o)

06/11/08 - How am I still conscious-?

**Read further to find out why the karaoke contest is postponed… T_T;;;**

Baaaaaad news.
Bad bad bad bad news.

If you know me from Deviantart, you may know that my computer is in terrible shape right now (because I’ve ranted about it several times on DA). I’ve been getting really frustrated lately, because I’m not able to cg (or pretty much do anything) so I deleted some programs. Made no difference, of course, because my computer is retarded…

Anyway, I accidentally deleted my sound codec, because I’m retarded.
So, I went on the site, redownloaded it - I even got a cd and reupped it from that, too, but reboot after reboot, my sound isn’t working. My sound card must just be shot or something. My computer is pretty old, anyway.

So, here is the bad news - I wont be uploading too many of my pics, and maybe for the next while it’ll mostly be music dumps. You’ll still get your requests, of course-! But, in order for me to get new songs and review them, I have to up them to my cellphone and listen to them there. T__T; *Has my cellphone all set up next to my computer*
Yes, this also means I have to put the karaoke contest on hold. OTL;;;;….
I’m getting my laptop for college sometime this month though, so I’ll be wiping my computer clean (this time, saving all my music and stuff… unlike last time when it decided to do it itself T__T;; ) and thigns will be back to normal (I hope). 8D;

It’s been so hectic lately-! First of all, I have two more weeks of high school (this means exam studying + getting in final projects).

On top of that I’ve been attacked by doctor’s appointments for some reason… D_D:
First, I had to go for a stress test, echo cardiogram, and other miscellaneous test (for my pacemaker).
Then I had to get a holter monitor and my blood work done.
Next, I had to get my other wisdom tooth removed (that was a week ago and it’s still killing me).
Then I had to go get a gardical needle.
Then I had like some emergency appointment (because my mom’s over obsessive) because I had a lump in my armpit, and which is apparently also my boob. I have to go back in two weeks to get that checked out again too, because they don’t know what it is…
And I have to go get my Twinrix needle soon because I may be going to the Dominican in February. @__@;
OH, and I got pink eye yesterday. No joke. I’m not sure how, though.

Aaaanyway, it’s preeetty sucky…. D_D;;;;…….
Could be a million times worse though, so I shouldn’t complain. 8D; (Considering that a lot of these appointments are to protect me…)

Oh, and my prom is on Friday, but I’m not going. It’s like… $40? +_+; And there’s not going to even be any booze. OTL ;;;;
Back when I was at my old school (I went to that school’s prom with Ichi, when he graduated.. oh gosh, that was two years ago now; how time flies o^o;;!), and it was only.. pff.. D_D $7? And there was alcohol. >A> *Shot*
I’m not an alchy or anything-! T__T; In fact, I haven’t drank since February. ;o__o; (That’s awhile for me.) And I don’t drink very often, anyway.

Though, I’m not too down about prom, because I’m instead, going to a beach party. ouo;;;! We’ll be camping etc etc… It’s the infamous Sarah’s birthday party, and she has a huge lot on the beach so, I’m looking forward to that~ Ichi and Ian, and the est of the girls and a whole mass load of other people (20 I think? Which is a mass load to me) will be there, so, I’m anxious for it. ;ovo;;;;

I-I BOUGHT A BIKINI, EVEN. D___D
I haven’t owned a bathing suit since I was 10. I even have an in-ground pool in my backyard, and even then, I’d go in there with shorts or a top of something… +_+;

Reason being is because my chest and upper body is full of surgical scars from my pacemaker, LOL… and the left side of my stomach is slightly (very slightly) distorted because I had the battery put in my stomach area when I was only year old. So, uhm, I’m very self concious of my body because of that. D_D;

(Oh, and my fat. 8D)

BUT, IT COULD BE WORSE-! ;;;;
Speaking of fat, I gained two pounds… D_D After Anime North I was just like, “FUCK THIS, I’M EATING EVERYTHING IN SIGHT, I LOVE THE CONNNN-!!” etc. And I never stopped…… D__D;;;…..

Anyway, I’ll get on with the few songs I’ve got. 8D; (Sorry guys…. ;;;; )

06/02/08 - Ze fyuuchaa

**Updated list! Karaoke contest will be up next entry.**

So much… has been… going on. *Dies off*

First I went to AN, which I will briefly summarize…

Oh, it was the pit of happiness for the year. D_D I spent around $300 and came out with stuff that when my mom at looked at it, she’d say, “this plastic bag costed you $8? Do you even need it?!” (She referred to my crappy Fruits Basket make-up case.)

Friday we spent most of the day in lines, LOL. First getting in, second the dealer’s room (which actually, we kind of butted into… oops.), Haruko Momoi tickets, and then the Nominoichi (flea market) line. Oh gaaahds. I think I spent three or six hours of the con in lines… ;;;;

There were some very neat cosplayers and a lot of people even took pictures of my cosplay (oh gods why). There was one point where a few, both scronny/fat/balding/sweaty otaku surrounded me and started taking pictures, hollering, “Puchiko-!!” …I didn’t know whether to feel flattered, or… something else. D_D (And I’m not lying, that really happened-! ;;; )

I met (click for their DA links) Kaiya, Hime, Holly, Jade, Alexisneo, Khoa, Mako, and Ichigo-Oh. Hime & Kai are the biggest pervs — they stuck freebies down my shirt for me before I left OTL. (Because they were selling their work.) Jade was super nice/awesome/everything too. When I move to Toronto, I want to hang with them. TTuTT;~

Saturday, oh gahds, SATURDAY. It started out extremely stupidly/dramatically. Okay, years before, I went to that KOTOKO concert, and I did not have my glasses, so I used my friend’s glasses (which were not even my prescription, but they helped a little bit). And I was very upset that I didn’t really get to see KOTOKO very well. Now…

Friday night I realized I didn’t have my contact case, so I just stuck them in a glass of water. I woke up the next morning, when mom had told me she thought they were just a normal glass of water, and THREW THEM DOWN THE DRAIN.

No I did not have any spare contacts.

And I did not have my glasses.

And yes I did cry. *SPOILED FAIL*

So, I had to call home for my prescription to see if I could get it in Toronto (long distance phone-call, five hours away), and since my brother is such an ASSHOLE (as I’ve mentioned several times), he doesn’t pick up the phone when it’s a number he doesn’t recognize or if it isn’t for him.

So we had to call someone else to go to my house and get my prescription… D_D; (Don’t worry, me and my mom gave them a bottle of wine and a thank you card as a present LOL yes it was that big of a deal.) So, we got the prescription, headed down to some eye place, and asked for some contacts. Unfortunately since the world LOVES to fuck me over, the lady said, “Yeah sorry but it’s illegal to give away contacts with out a real prescription.” Like not just shit written out on a piece of paper type thing. So we called my eye place in town for my prescription, which was obviously not open.

So I was sad. Very very sad. And then… we found it. A little ghetto eye place on the corner of some street, and me and my mom went in there and gave the guy working there suuuchhh a sad sap story… seriously, I’ve never made the saddest face or sucked up so much in my LIFE. I felt terrible, but I got my contacts. 8D;;; *Shot* (We sent him the prescription on Monday via fax.)

SO, I got to see Haruko Momoi. X’D SECOND ROW, too!! Actually, it was practically first row, because first row were reserved seats. I sat with Alexisneo (who is aawwesome) and Ichi at the concert. We even got little glowsticks to wave around and shizz. I never cracked mine yet because I wanted to keep the essence of Momoi burning within my heart forev-*shot*

Oh yeah, I did cry when I saw her. On three separate occasions, I think. D_D;

First when she came out, I practically had a bawl-fest.

Then I cried when she played Thunder Shot! (which was aaawwwesomeeee-!! No Sunday Early Morning, though. ;_; )

I also cried during her encore song.

I drew a picture for her too, which I wanted to give her during the autograph session, buttt, yeaah, I didn’t go. OTL ;;;; If anyone wants it just give me a holler - ahaha. 8D; *Posts below?*

I guess that was the maximum of my stories. Sunday was the usual (went to the Video Game Music panel with Ichi, ahaha, and the AMV contest which was sweet), and I said goodbye to everyone, and bought the final things I… needed. Yes I needed them.

And here’s pictures of some of the things I got aaand cute cosplayers! :3

Now that paradise is over with, of course, reality smashes me in the face. When I got to school the next day I realized, “the real world just blows, doesn’t it?” it’s always so depressing after I come back from a con… D_D

This week’s been hectic, though. My grandmother has been in terrible shape… I have to look for a job, still… I have to get ready for college… have to work on final assignments/prepare for exams… I graduated last Wednesday… I’ve got three doctors appointments this week (on including the removal of my other wisdom tooth) … and Ichi is moving out of the city (after the con he srsly just got too poor to live there anymore - LOL..?) and back into his little home in town, where I live. I’d be happy about that originally, but, he might be moving into Toronto for the summer too… and not going to school… I don’t exactly know where both of us will be ending up, but lately, it seems like for the summer (two months) we probably wont be together. I’ll be stuck working in this little crappy town and he’ll be in Toronto working there. And then when I go to school there, who knows if we’ll have enough time for each other…

slakmflds,m.b,cx.v,b.vcx…………..

I just don’t want to think about it right now. 8D~

I got a little irked at him, though I probably don’t have the right…:

I applied to all of my Universities and Colleges in Toronto, because Ichi informed me that he would be in that area. (And yes, I’m a loser, I’ll base my life ’round him… — though, I probably would’ve chosen Toronto anyway, because Toronto’s awesome, and I already have friends there anyhow. owo; ) Ichi pretty much put off signing up for school until PASSED the last minute (because he’s a lazy slacker), and now he’s not able to get into any school. I guess I was a little disappointed, becaaaause… it was something I thought we were in together. ;;;

Anyway — right now he’s trying to get a job somewhere in Toronto through his very rich relatives. T3T; Though, the reason why I’m so irked, is because I’m just a bitter person. As far as his education goes, he’s only been in Toronto, and he’s had a job working as a computer mining technician, and now with his relatives, he’s trying to pull some strings and get an apprenticeship job for a private investigator, or a job with Canada Trust. D_D…

And I’m going to college for visual and digital arts just so I can be a semi-successful manga-ka–!!! +_+;;!!

I’m just so… annoyed… that he’s getting so much and not working for anything-!! +A+;;;! …

Call me bitter. @__@ I should definitely be happy for him… but… you know how it is. =A=;…

*Gets over it* ouo-!!;;;

Oh, I started a new manga. *SHOT* ;;;;

I’ve quit Ketten. Reason being is because it’s waaay too long. Only one book, but, just one chapter is taking me awhile to do… so I’m switching over to a shorter, 31-page manga. It’s a futuristic shoujo-ai about robots. 8D;;; Hurhurhrurrr…

05/19/08 - Otaku party central

**New contest clip up!**

Anime North is only four days away - at this point in time, I start to really freak out like a kid. o//^//o;! (And I have been…) But this weekend my mind was occupied, for I was unexpectedly invited to a wedding. 8D~ (Lol I didn’t even know the people tho. ;;; )

Ichi & I thought Anime North was on the May long weekend (Victoria Day weekend) so we were all, “d’aaw we can’t go to the wedding”. (Who was the marriage of his cousin and some guy, both who I’ve never met.) But we got to go last minute, and I had a lot of fun. *u*;;; Definitely kept my mind off Anime North.
His mother from a few hours away came down (as I’ve mentioned before he’s never lived with his mother, because he doesn’t have a father, thus he was given to his grandparents), and some other relatives~ the ones who pretty much gave me the light of what a family was. *u*;

Ichi’s little sister is really cute - after watching me draw she’s been aspiring to do it ever since she met me (over a year ago now), it’s awessooome. X”’D
And she’s always writing love letters and posting them around the house. D__D…

(Oh, and - Cameron is Ichi’s real name btw - I never call him that though, because I’ve always found it boybandish ahahhaaa…

Oh and yes, I do think it is funny that one of the doctors names off House MD is called Allison Cameron. Lolololol *shot*)

Uhhm.. the wedding was fun, I stuffed my face (grah my diet-!!;;; ), and I actually danced more than I ever have. Ichi told me I wasn’t dancing right though, so I stopped LOL. ……OTL…;;;;

Oh, speaking of ze diet, it’s not really a “diet” - the program prefers to call it a “lifestyle”. Yes, it’s WeightWatchers. ‘u’;;;; The lowest I’ve been down to lately was 128.5 (I started at 133). So ehm, yay. 8D! Anyone who feels they could burn off a couple pounds or feel they need a healthier lifestyle, I suggest WW~ I’ve been doing a lot of exercising now too. ‘////’!!

Anyhow, back on track - I took a few pictures from the night, none that really mean anything special.. 8D; But.. you know how it is. *u*;

Ichi trying to look cool LOL. =_=;;;;………….

Ichi and I, kissy/constipated faces.

Pouty faces.

Happy faces.

Chu. (WHY DO I LOOK CRAZY WIDE-EYED IN EVERY SINGLE PICTURE D;LGP;FD,JNHGF;DJ)

Oh, I almost forgot, here’s my hideous Puchiko cosplay! 8D;

I’ll get some better pics later. ovo;;;;;

One thing I’m especially excited for (obviously) is to see Haruko Momoi’s concert. When I saw KOTOKO there, I really regret not getting her autograph (I didn’t because I was sick of the two hour line up in the blazing sun, and I didn’t want to be in a line again for a long while 8D; ), so hopefully this year I will get Momoi’s. Even better, I wish I could get a picture with her… TT_TT *DREAMS lol*

She was also a guest at Anime Expo 2007, but as some of you may know, that didn’t go very well… (She said herself on her blog that that Anime Expo was terrible and that the staff didn’t treat her properly, and was often getting her concert/autograph times mixed up and etc, and at times she even cried because the place was stressing her out extensively.)

Momoi, if you cry at your concert, so will I-!! QAQ;;; (Actually whether she cries or not, I’ll probably end up crying anyway… like when I saw KOTOKO orz……..)

There was also one time during Momoi’s concert at AX, where she asked the audience to move to the front (in Japanese) and the AX staff just pushed everyone back into their seats. Lol good job AX.
Hopefully, Canada will treat Momoi right. ;u;!! I can’t wait to see her! (Sadly, I wont be able to take any videos/pics because they didn’t allow it when I went to go see KOTOKO there. T__T;;; ….)

Oh, and by the way, if you have her song “Sunday Early Morning”, open it up, and take a listen, following these lyrics… I figured out that the lyrics are Anime titles (written on the side), and I’m still trying to figure out the rest. (And if you don’t have the song, I posted it in the music dump.) It’s just too clever. X’D!! …Btw, I know I have no life. 8D;;; *shot*

….Oh yes, I’m definitely going to cry when I see her. OTL…..
My next post will be after Anime North, and I’ll be sure to take lots of pics! :’D!!

I’VE - Mami Kawada - Get my way!
|| 2:57 || japanese || punkrock ||

Comments: I got Mami’s most recent album a few days ago, so I’ve really been obsessing over it. :D This song is so punk for her. Literally, it’s very punk-esque, and has a lot of heavy guitars, and a very uppy-happy tune. I guess what makes it so punk to me in the constant drumming… very unique, a very good song. :D It’s something new for Mami (and for I’VE too, I think), but it actually works great anyway! :D Recommended for Mami Kawada fans!
|| download ||

A*Teens - Mama mia!
|| 5:01 || japanese || poptechno ||

Comments: dlgmdlah ABBA!!! ;;;; I heard them on the radio the other day, and I was like “fdlhkgl I need some ABBA!!! ;;;” Though this isn’t really ABBA… (sorry) yes, I’m a sucker for these popcrap Hilary Duff-esque remixes. They’ve just got great beats and strong bass… I’m just a huge sucker for it. ;;; And if you have heard Mama mia! (if not, why haven’t you ffs?!! It’s a classic), and liked it, you’ll probably like the remix too. :D It’s upbeat and a great dance tune.. it’s just… it gives me cavities. Q//^//Q
|| download ||

A*Teens - Gimmie! Gimmie! Gimmie! (A Man After Midnight)
|| 5:16 || japanese || pop ||

Comments: Another “Abba-teens” song. (That’s what the “A” stands for dur) Actually, I said before, “it’s a classic-!” but actually I hadn’t heard of ABBA’s music until I saw the play for myself in Toronto (which was amazingggg!). I loved it so much, that I went again for my 13th birthday LOL. ;;; Aaaaanyway, this song is just as upbeat as Mamamia, but it has a darker tone to it and isn’t so much happy. Despite it’s corny lyrics, it has a great beat. : D
|| download ||

Walt & Jensen - CTRL-WALD-DLT
|| 2:49 || n/a || rave ||

Comments:Holy crap lots of “no pics” today… well, anyway~ this song is very techo/raveish, so if you like that kind of stuff, I suggest you take a listen. At first it was hard on my ears (the sounds of the beats are very different…) but I became very addicted to it after one listen. *u*/ Very strong, loud beats~ uhmm.. I think either you’ll love it or you’ll hate it, depends how much you like trance/techno/rave! :’D

05/08/08 - My weeaboo stomach would like a meal

**Contest is still running! If someone doesn’tget it before my next entry I’ll put up a new song.**

My… faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaace!
Hurts.
I got one of my wisdom teeth removed a few days ago and I cried like a little baby, LOL. ;;; It’s been awhile since I cried from pain that wasn’t emotional… D__D; *Is an emotional crybaby, myes*

And even through the pain, I spit out this lame attempt to try to karaoke Konata’s (from Luck Star) image song. In a way, I tried to sound like Aya Hirano as well, and faaaaailed… OTL ;;; Click for it~! ;;;
(Someday, I’d like to learn the rest of the song, but for now, it’s too fast. ;;; *Fail*)

Thanks everyone for commenting on my last entry. (I still need to reply to a couple OTL… ;; ) I needed people’s opinions; I thought maybe I was going way over the top. T_T;;; And before going onto something else, I’ll briefly over-view the Sarah issue as of today: While Sarah was flirting with another male classmate, I said to her (nicely, jokingly… subtly), “you flirt with a lot of people.
She started getting flustered, and said she didn’t notice that she did, and became girlishly interested, asking, “why do you think that? Who do you think I flirt with?
Of course this was an open opportunity to try to subtly slip in, “well uh, my boyfriend. ouo;;” <—Not really what I said OTL
I rhymed off a few guys, and said in between the list, my boyfriend’s name. Of course that one stuck out to her the most, and she said, she didn’t mean to. She said she didn’t even notice that she was flirting with all the people I named off.
I guess some people are just flirty by nature… I just wish she kinda knew her limits, when it came to my boyfriend. OTL…
Sometimes though, I think she’s closer than Ichi as a friend than she is with me, then how can I say, “that’s a rule of friend!” kinda thing.
Ahhh, well… it bothers me to death, but maybe I’ll eventually get over it… ;;;;

Anyway, I applied for residence at college today. A single room, and a laaaarge meal plan! I’ll pick the healthy stuff though… I’ll try! TT^TT; (Luls. ;;; )
I really hope I get a single room. It’d be awkward to have a roommate, most especially if it was some college prep. I kinda wanna have my cute anime figurines on display and such, and I wanna be able to record things alone with out having some still-in-a-highschool-world girlish thing walk in and be like, “are you possessed?” because it’s apparently unheard of for someone who isn’t originally of that culture/language to sing in that culture/language.

Thought it is weeaboo. And that’s what I am…….. =A=;;;;
OTL ;;;;;;…………

I was always scared that if I casually sang Japanese very lowly to myself, someone would overhear me, and think I was possessed or singing cult chants or something LOL. +_+;;;…

Two weeks ’til Anime North - that means Haruko Momoi, figurines, plushies, autographs, manga, and getting broooooke! 8D 5/6 of my favorite things. OTL;;…….

I’m at 129 pounds still, but that’s still good for what I started at. (Which was around 135 pounds, I think.)
I’m always over obsessing over my weight, so I drew a picture of my stomach trying to devour Ichi today.

…I thought it was funny. ;;;
That’s all for today! 8D;

Aya Hirano - Unnamed World
|| 3:32 || japanese || poprock ||

Comments: Yes, Aya’s out with yet another single. And, surprise surprise, her vocals sound incredibly good in this one - personally, I think the editors of her songs are tweaking her vocals up even more lately. When I first heard it, I thought, “this doesn’t sound like the usual Aya”. After the Haruhi & Lucky Star craze, Aya’s become extremely popular, and especially since she’s very attractive, of course she’s going to be turned into a media sell-out star. I kind of miss the old Aya, but, anyway, more about the music. Despite not being able to recognize her voice at first, the melody is very nice, and it’s a very good rock piece. I think Aya’s voice works best with rock (this was most definitely proven in God Knows), and cutesy pop (like MonStar). The b-side to her new single can be found in the music dump below.
|| download ||

I’VE - Eiko Shimamiya - Naraku no hana
|| 5:01 || japanese || poptechno ||

Comments: I’ve been meaning to get into this song for awhile. I mean, I heard about it - it was a song by I’VE, and it was from Higurashi, what more could I ask for? Anyway, it took me awhile to actually listen to it, (lol because I’m so busy.. w/e) and it’s actually very addictive. :D There’s a lot of things that make this song distinct and a very good listen. It begins very mysterious and scary sounding, and though her voice isn’t haunting at all (in fact, it’s quite cute), the melody and the “scratches” in the verses make the song sound very scary. Perfect for the anime! And the chorus is so nice… ;o; “Nukedashitette, nukedashitette~”… ;;;
|| download ||

Ayumi Hamasaki - Mirrorcle World
|| 5:16 || japanese || pop ||

Comments: I’m just re-upping this sing a lot of people couldn’t get it last time because of the file format & size. So here you are guys, an mp3! I’ll just rip the comments from my last entry, too: “Ayu’s new single! I am not minding Ayu’s single’s lately. Her upbeat rock songs are always great, it seems. It starts like a very mystical-sounding ballad, but turns into a very mysterious sounding rock song. :’D It’s very cool! I really recommend this, even for an Ayu song.” It’s really hardcore. 8D;
|| download ||

I’VE - Mami Kawada - Sense
|| 4:44 || japanese || poptechno ||

Comments: Shana’s new ending song~! And it sounds like it could be an opening… this song is incredible & heavily addicting. *_*;;; The chorus is very upbeat and happy sounding. I’m so used to Mami’s cool songs now, (JOINT, especially <333) it’s so nice to hear her do an upbeat awesome happy song! :’D A really good song, it has that good I’VE style… and I can finally tell Mami Kawada and KOTOKO’s voices apart-! 8D …Now to be able to tell Eiko’s and Mami’s… ;;;;

04/29/08 - Teenagery

**Contest is still running!**

It’s been awhile. I’ve been so busy… ;;; Last weekend, I celebrated my birthday with ice cream (I don’t like cake), Korean food, and chocolate. I reaaaaally went over my diet. ;;;;; But despite that…

I’ve overcome my plateau!! D__D;;;!!

pla·teau [pla-toh, plat-oh]
noun, plural -teaus, -teaux
verb, -teaued, -teau·ing.
to reach a state or level of little or no growth or decline, to prevent from rising or progressing: I have been losing weight on my diet for awhile now, but for some reason I’m not gaining nor losing anymore weight. I’ve reached my godforsaken fucking plateau.

Right, so, I overcame it-! ;;; I was at 130lbs for quiet awhile, and despite my pigging out this weekend, I’m now 129lbs. Somebody, somewhere, must’ve been like, “it’s your birthday, your allowed to pig out… here, I’ll even take off a pound for you, for a birthday present! *Holy light* …But only once a year!
Uhhhhm.. huh. ;;;;;

Anyway, the reason why I haven’t been posting is because I’ve been a little busy, and will be - my birthday was this weekend, uhh… yesterday (Monday), I probably should’ve taken my time to blog, but uhm, I didn’t. ;;;; Tuesday, (today) I’m going out for tea with a friend and - crap! ;;;; I still have to do my resume. QAQ; Oh, that’s right! Tomorrow (Wednesday) my school is having an art show opening, where some of my things are featured, so I’d like to be there, plus I am handing in my resume (which I should finish tonight) at Chapters, and perhaps other places, that is, for a summer job - Thursday (day after tomorrow) I’ll have to still work on some art show things because the show is spanning three godforsaken days, and then after busing it home for an hour, I have to get an operation on my mouth to remove my wisdom teeth (they’re coming in horizontally) and then on Friday I’m just staying home and dying.

……|||;;;;;
Though I’ll be half-dead after this week is over, I still want to stay the weekend at Ichi’s, despite that my mom says, “you’ll probably wont be up to it.”

….Speeeaking of Ichi… ;;;; I’ve been meaning to question this for awhile. Just for other’s opinions, I mean.
I’ll start with this: Deep down, I’m a bitter, jealous girl. There is no denying it. Q_Q; I’m jealous of other people’s talents, and looks, more than anything. I guess.. that’s all there really is to be jealous of? ;;;; I guess I’m a little bit jealous of people’s personalities some times as well, b-but, anyway… ;;;

Sarah. ;;;;;
She was one of the girls I posted a picture of, back in that post where I had that huge picture-posting-spree; that particular night with the dance. Sarah’s probably one of my best friends in my new school, but despite that… she’s been getting on my nerves, a tiny little bit. ;;;;
And not in a way that she’s irritating, annoying, or a loud mouth, but more so the fact that… s-she’s always… always… hitting on Ichi. D___D;

I really never though I’d encounter a day like this-!! ;;; Q////Q;;;; I think, “b-but, Ichi’s kind of a nerd, a gamer, a loli-fandom boy… why is he magnetting a preppy normal girl-?! @A@;;;;??!”
(…Well, Sarah’s not hardcore preppy, but she’s pretty borderline prep - she accepts a lot of different people though, I guess that’s why I don’t mind her.)
There was one time in particular Ichi didn’t call me, and when asking the next day, he told me he went out to see the movie Shutter, alone. Later on, Sarah told me he had went out for a movie, and I was like, “o-oh? Did you go see Shutter-? D__D…”
Of course, she says to me, “Yeah, I was with -insert Ichi’s real name here.-”
And then I evolved into Mount Vesuvius. (I didn’t lava her Pomeii though; I lava’d Ichi’s.)

Cough.

He told me his reasoning was because if he told me the truth, I’d still get angry. (It’s true, I probably would’ve, lol. >A>;;;….) But, he lies frequently, and I had told him about a month before, many times, “please don’t lie to me, especially if it’s something that’s going to hurt me.” Because if it’s something that’s going to hurt me, then someone goes and lies about it, it’s like, LIE X 2! +_+; *Shwing* ….|||;; (How old am I? ;;; )

But, there are just other times, when say, Ichi will be lying down on the floor… and Sarah will plop next to him. There was one time, (I was even in the room) this happened, and she started being very flirtatious with him, and tappin on his chest, and pulling on his shirt and such… +__+;;;
And I thought, “uh, girlfriend… is.. right here.. Q__Q;;;;;
I suppose I should be happy that they’re just constantly flirtatious rather than being all over each other all the time. T__T; Though, my mom is telling me to still keep my eyes open… ;;; (I am! +_+; )
And I hate to say this, but I honestly think I would be, 24/7, very, very upset about the matter, if Sarah was very attractive. She’s a very pretty girl, but she’s a lot bigger than me. T__T; But it still bothers me a lot… (Oh, btw, I’m very hung up on appearance. ;;; Thus, I’m dieting… +_+; I’m taken over by the media-!! *Shot* ;;; )

Both of us are moving to Toronto for school this September, (not moving in, just both moving there… I’m not sure where he’s going to school yet, though) and since I’m a biased little town girl, I think: “Toronto = city = lots of people = LOTS OF ATTRACTIVE GIRLS WHO WILL TRY TO - *shot*”
Y…you know how it is. S-sadly. ;;;;;
So, my concern is, should I worry? ;;;; Am I being paranoid? +__+;;;

The only time Ichi’s been unfaithful to me is when he got lap dance at a strip joint from some Aids infested whore, when he said he never would… +_+; (He said he wasn’t into those things.) He was pretty loaded though, (from what he says) and Ian was telling him to… D__D; Ehhn, he only told me a few months after that he had, as well… ;;;
And then there was something that happened this January, that I had posted for about a day and then took it down because it was just stupid and too ridiculously private to even post on the internet anyway. It was really a “stupid teenager-couple problem”, but it bothered me anyway. Twas a big lie. ‘_______’;;;;

Aaaaanyway, I’ll end my gross teenagery entry with one of my new pieces, lololol. ;;;;; Done in water colours - the quality is bad because I had to take it with my camera, because it’s that big. @u@;! (Click on image for bigger image-!! ;;;; )

And that’s all. :’D I hope you enjoy my all time favorite song-!! :”D

**Favorite songs are listed from 6 to 1, one being the best in my taste. Enjoy!**

#6.) Tsukiko Amano - Ningyou ~Meg mix~
|| 4:34 || japanese || rockpop ||

Comments: I remember getting into this song just around the time I met Ichi… three years, almost. This song has been with me for a long while. <3 Like most of Amano’s songs, it starts old slow and draggy, and lots of drums. (This is my own opinion. ;;;; ) The chorus, however, is very pleasing to the ears. I’ve never heard vocals that sound so sincere and with emotion, (she sounds so angry!) with out actually screaming. And even while pulling off that sharp yelling in her voice in the chorus, she continues on with her high notes amazingly. <3 Very angry, rock-driven, emotional song.
|| download ||

#5.) Angela Aki - On&On
|| 4:53 || japanese || pop ||

Comments: I have a weird opinion on this song. I’ve gotten dreadfully sick of it after listening to it constantly, but I still love it every time I listen to it. Hnnn… with Angela Aki’s piano skills being the blueprints of every one of her pieces, makes her music very unqiue. Even with an uplifting, upbeat song such as this one, it still sounds amazing. I’m a sucker for slow, nice piano pieces, but this is one of my first favorites that was a faster one. Angela Aki is talented all around… her voice is one of the greatest I’ve heard, and her talent is big. This is definitely one of her best, upbeat, uplifting songs.
|| download ||

#4.) Haruko Momoi - Sunday Early Morning
|| 4:44 || japanese || poptechno ||

Comments: I just gout into this song recently, but I have a good feeling I’m going to love it for years. It’s practically been on a constant replay for the passed month now, and I haven’t gotten sick of it yet. Plus, J-techno/eletronica is really my guilty pleasure. I hate the Engrish lyrics, (Halko Momoi said that for the lyrics, she took simply Enlglish phrases & words for that sounded like Anime titles to her), but that doesn’t ruin the song for me. (I can’t wait to see her in concert-!! ////;;; )
|| download ||

#3.) YUI - Feel My Soul
|| 3:49 || japanese || pop ||

Comments: It was so difficult to pick out my favorite YUI song. This one really gets to me every listen, though, more than any of her others. The high notes, melody, and her beautiful trademark guitar+violin mix, all go together incredibly well. This is one of the most uplifting songs I’ve ever heard in my life, as well.
|| download ||

#2.) I’VE - KOTOKO - Sappuration -core-

Comments: Pft. When I saw KOTOKO starting to play this at her live concert at Anime North, I cried. Yes, I cried. D_D… (Later on in the concert, she came out in a little Mounty costume as well ahaha. ////;;; Because were in Canada. xD; ) This is and has been one of my favorite upbeat songs for a few years now. I’m not sure why. It’s very dark and techno-esque, and the chorus holds a lot of emotion. But what I like best about it is it’s mesmerizing instrumental, it really builds up to a great ending chorus. :D KOTOKO’s vocals work so well with the kind of music she does, too… I love hearing I’VE’s industrial, dark-techno stuff. It’s fabulous. :D

#1.) REMIOROMEN - Konayuki
|| 5:23 || japanese || pop ||

comments: This is my favorite song. Ever. Hands down. In the whole wide fricken universe or.. w/e. It’s amazing. I first heard it on that famous drama, 1 Litre of Tears, and after hearing it a couple of times, then hearing the piano version, and then reading the lyrics, I fell in love with it. The lyrics are incredible, the melody, and the power of the song. I was also very into this song during the time when Ichi was thinking of going away to university a year early, so it has a very personal meaning and attachment to me, and very, very special place in my heart.
