Teahouse

Isn't the above so cute?! The owner of the teahouse (the fox) is asleep now, and you have 3 fox spirits playing chess~ I simply love GMAIL THEMES!

KUROSAGI

You know what's the side effect of watching too much "KUROSAGI"? It's that I'm wanting to become one too. *laughs* 

At first I was wondering what to update today, in fact, I didn't have anything to update. Until this incident which just happened, and it got me so excited. Because frankly, it was the first time I encountered such things. SAGISHI (Swindlers)

There are 3 kinds of sagishi in the world. Shirosagi, which usually uses intelligence and swindles money in a business way. Akasagi, which uses their beauty to swindle off money from others. Kurosagi, who preys on shirosagi and akasagi, the swindler of swindlers.

Ok, that was roughly what I remembered from KUROSAGI. *laughs* Anyway, my friend, let's call her H, who asked me if I wanted to buy NEWS album, which is already out of print now, and very rare. Of course I was excited! And I spammed her like crazy. So she showed me the post, and I started to read it. This is the post.

So, I read through it, and I started to suspect this lj. Because everything seems too good to be true. And she emailed H stating she can buy as many copies as she want! That's cool isn't it? Buying as many copies as you want when THEY ARE OUT OF PRINT EVERYWHERE. Especially when they are BRAND NEW. You know? FRESH FROM JAPAN. Cool isn't it?

I got suspicious and I further discuss this matter with Jieshi aka Jess. Together, we decided to do something about it (though we couldn't really become a KUROSAGI, what a pity), so J posted a post about it here. You can try reading it, because seriously, I told her to make it as underlying as possible, the warning. *laughs*

So of course, our conclusion is that the person is a swindler, a cheater, whatever. If she happened to be innocent, and true, great, now I can get all my LE at such wonderful prices. NICE.

So I got my thrill by doing all these the whole night, until now, which I've not bathed still. I'm so going to be a panda during lesson later. *cries* 

So I have some real funny conversations with my friends. I shall do screen caps~! Yeah~!

Hahah, I'm done with it. And I'm happy now~ Everyone, please beware of this kind of sellers ok! And read the post if you want, because they are so entertaining.

My Obsession

My lovely "color"s~!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now I can sleep soundly~

Smile Maker

Seriously, I failed so badly. Because I cant identify everyone's voice~!!! Why~! 

Even yanxuan is now informing me of the time. Alright, I have to sleep, Smile Maker shall be done tomorrow instead~

*laughs*

By the way, Smile Maker is really a great song. I totally love the piano at the background!

EDIT:

Oh my, I really LOVE Smile Maker~!!! And yes~! I identified everyone's voice~! Finally~! (I blame Ryo and Massu for having different yet similar voices. As in, they can sing in different voices.)

Pi, grp, Ryo, Massu, grp, Kei, Tego, grp, Shige, grp, grp

「自分のためじゃなくても　誰かのために笑おう」

just a short post

because today is going to be a busy day. i have 4 weeks worth of log to complete. argh. i dono what to write, since i have been doing similar things every week. 

anyway, a short rant. because i encountered something just now. i went to the pasar malam near my house, and i was walking along the pavement. so i realised a group of people blocking the pavement, i went out and stepped onto the muddy area instead. i got a little irritated by this. so i continued to walk on, and i was along this preserved food stall, before i encountered this sudden incident.

i walked on my right, just right beside the stall, and i know i always have a tendency to avoid people as much as possible, so that i won't knock onto anyone. and believe me, i'm courteous enough to actually give way to people whenever there is a need. 

so i don't know why this happened. i was walking, and i saw this man in front of me walking the opposite way. i naturally sticked to my right (which was the tables of the stall) so that the man could walk on my left and i wouldn't block his way. guess what? i was knocked so hard by him that i hit the stall's table. and my left arm/shoulder hurt so much. i was bewildered, and i looked at him who had already passed me.

he did not knock onto anyone else. 

then i looked at the stall owner, seemed like she was wondering what had happened as well. i was angry for that very moment, but then it just went off, because i was glad that nothing bad had happened. i'm still alive, healthy, not very much hurt or anything. 

instead of a knock, it could have been a punch, a kick, an argument which may lead to some serious fight or injuries, a knife or worse. i was relieved at the fact that i wasn't hurt or injured, and i acted calmly to it. i couldn't believe that when i was knocked onto the table, the first word was "ouch" and followed by "sorry" immediately. i actually said sorry to someone who knocked onto me (probably deliberately too, unless he's under drugs or something).

so, that's all. I'm lucky, really.

NEWS!

Yeah~ I'll be updating this post because I'm now waiting for NEWS leaks as I've mentioned before. Then "Ordinary" is out! Oh my, I love this song now~! It is on repeat already! I think I'll LOVE the whole album! Oh yeah~! *laughs*

More leaks~!!! And oh my, I think I love the album! And I love fangirling about NEWS~!

NEWS Saikou~! *laughs*

Conclusion, I LOVE NEWS TO BITS!~

color is fantastic!!!!!!!!!!! Please listen to it~!!!!!!!! *laughs*

Shorter post of the day

Ok, I promise I'll make this post shorter than the previous posts~ I wonder why I've typed so much when I thought there were so little things to talk about. 

So on the Uchi's news. I have so many thoughts but I don't know how to pen them down. So I read a post, and yes, I have some excuses which matched up with it. I don't really want Uchi back, because I thought it might destroy the harmony we see in 6P NEWS now. But after reading some of those comments, I realised, there isn't much to worry about.

Because I've realised it this afternoon, when I received the NEWS from Jess, that NEWS can always make me fall in love with them over and over again. I knew how I came along, and it is NEWS which I love now, not yamapi, koyato or tegomass. I started out as a pi fan, and only able to fangirl pi. I think I was regarded as a "PO" that time, Pi-Only. But now, I've established myself as a "PB", Pi-Biased fan^^ And yes, I admit I'm Pi-Biased~ Hahahaha.

So, I only liked NEWS that time because of some of the songs. But I had never liked everyone that time. It was only until recently, then I realised I could fangirl about anyone in NEWS (6P), ANYONE. I screeched when I heard Shige's singing became good. I fangirled Kei's dancing. I "wow"-ed at Tegoshi's singing, I LOVE Massu's singing. And I even enjoy Ryo's presence because of the slight tenderness and gentleness he shows secretly! I really love NEWS as a whole now.

So, if Uchi returns, I'm not afraid of anything (such as leaving the fandom like some said~), because I know NEWS can make me fall in love with the new NEWS, and even Uchi~^^ Because they are NEWS. And because, I know Yamapi as the Leader will be able to lead NEWS to greater heights!

NEWS, S.A.I.K.O.U, 最高！

Wednesday

Let me start with this, since I mentioned it first in the previous post. I've made the previous post a little too stern, even with such a merry title. So I'll write this on a lighter note!

But wednesday didn't start out right for me. I woke up late, and to find a cockroach on my bed. Please use your extreme imagination to mimic my shock, because that was how much horror I felt in the morning. And I really cried after losing the fight to that cockroach, because it hid away.

That day was not a good day, the weather truly reflected my feelings, because it was a thunderstorm day. It rained so hard that my friend and I were drenched, and umbrella was of no use, and the traffic lights went off after one lightning. I stood there for ten minutes, wondering what I should do. And I was disappointed that I didn't know what I could do, and felt so useless. No point studying so much when you can't even handle these emergencies. Food science doesn't teach me how to react when there are no traffic lights, it doesn't teach me who to contact when I want to report the case. In fact, I don't remember any of the education levels I went through taught such things. Yes, I know about robberies, accidents and all, but when the traffic lights go off, just what should you do? I think they should add one more subject, to teach the youngsters how to handle emergencies. 

So never mind about that, because I was impressed that no car accidents had happened and the traffic was smooth except for some cars which got stuck in the middle of the junction occasionally. Oh, did I mention? It was a crossroad junction, so it was quite dangerous that time. 

Then my friend and I went to my house, Mai to be exact. I really thank her so much for what she had done. I know I can never do that much for her, so I really thank her for her kindness to help me umpteen times. So the usual cleaning came, and she helped me to clean like half of my room, because she was afraid of my sudden screaming. You know, we didn't spot any sight of cockroaches during the while we were cleaning.

But when I finished bathing after the clean up, they showed up. Thank goodness Mai was there to fight with them. But in the end, it wasn't the one in my room. I had to fight with the one in my room alone after sending Mai off. So, I officially announce that my room is roach-free for the moment. So I have to constantly spray the insecticide to get rid of them. Argh. I'm really afraid of cockroaches.

And I was late again on Thursday morning. And Friday, I cried on the bus to my workplace because of a short letter written by a vet doctor in the newspaper. All it said was, he found a cat, and got it adopted by some kind souls. The it was diagnosed with some disease, and after some treatment, it was found gasping for air one day at home. The owner called the doctor, but the doctor advised not to bring it over for treatment, because it would be better for the cat to die somewhere where it is familiar, and with its family. And after an hour, the cat died peacefully. And at this point, I'm tearing again~ Argh. I really cry for such minor things. Anyway, the letter was wrote in to stop the putting down of animals, and instead should just let them die naturally in the place where they are most familiar with. 

Then I thought of my pet, (for those who know, its "white"). I can still remember the day it died, how it died, and how sad I was, crying for it. Just a few weeks ago, probably a month or so, I had a chat with Mai, which somehow led to my pet, and I cried for like a whole half an hour or something. Even though it had already passed away for 3 years, and it was its death anniversary just a week or so ago. 4 Nov. No wonder I remembered this date clearly. At first I thought it was Brenda's birthday, and was about to contact her, but realised hers was on Dec. So I didn't think much after that. Now then I recalled, it was her (my pet) death anniversary. 

Alright, somehow I start my post happily but end sadly. I shall end here first, and post the next update~

A Happy Day~!

Hello! I'm dead tired but I know I'll still stay online till very late because I want to wait for the leaks to be out! I'm referring to NEWS color album leaks~^^ Anyway, I think I had a long day today, as well as past few days.

I didn't go online for around 3 days already, partially because of laziness as well, and I missed quite a lot of things. Basically, I want to address a few things in this post, so I better list them down before I forget.

1. Wednesday
2. JLPT Venue
3. Today
4. Uchi's news

Alright, I think so much so that I have to post different posts for the topics above. In that case, I'll start with today's happenings, since the title said it already.

Well, tomorrow is going to be my mid-term test for Intermediate 1, so today xuan and I went out to do a slight revision. We planned our schedule since the start of our lesson, but only until yesterday's night then we could finalise everything, because of my hectic schedule as well. In the end, her di (who is her god younger brother) decided to tag along, so this morning I met them both. As usual I was late, but never mind that. *laughs* Then I realised, I really have age gap with the youngsters nowadays.

There was this incident, where I saw 2 children (they are girls some more!!) littered the floor with torn pieces of a flyer/brochure. How uncivilised was that?! That is blatant littering! I seriously wondered what were the schools teaching the youngsters nowadays. And I was very angry about that incident. I don't know what has got into me, or am I really getting older, but I can't stand youngsters doing the wrong things as if they weren't taught anything. Especially when those two kids were throwing torn pieces!! Did you know a rubbish bin was just 2 to 3 metres away from them?! They deliberately tore the paper into pieces and threw them! I don't understand why would they want to do that. And yes, I know I'm very biased in some sense, where I judge people by their doings and their dressing code. Sorry, but when I see youngsters with rebonded hair, and dressed skimpily, I will immediately regard them as uncivilised kids. Then I support my case with their doings, unless they really behaved so well. I think I've become those old women who will sit by a side and curse at those kids running wildly near them. You know? Those old and bad women where kids will never get close to. So my conclusion? I think I have generation gap with the youngsters nowadays. The end.

So today, it was peaceful, and I'm thankful for that. But I got to admit, I'm not good with kids. I felt so bad neglecting xuan's di, and for traumatising her di with all my blah-blah-logy. Just one thing, Please Don't Ever Grow Up To Become One Of Those Kids I've Mentioned And Disappoint Your Parents. You're the only child, Never ever hurt yourself no matter what happens. Please think of everyone around you, everyone who cares about you. Because truly, but I may not have showed it very much, I was very shocked when xuan told me her di cut himself. Of course, in order not to let the atmosphere get tense, we went into the topic of myself taking a blood test. But really, if you were my di, I would have scolded you like mad for hurting yourself like this. I think her di must be thanking god that xuan is her sis instead of me.

Alright, I realised I've just typed a chunk of those logy I mentioned. *laughs* I sure had traumatised her di. I'm so sorry. So to not be traumatised by me, please grow up to be a wonderful man. *laughs*

I think, it must be because I'm an only child, I placed so much hope on him? Being an only child, I think I've got many which others might not be fortunate enough to get, but also lost many which others might be fortunate enough to get. And trust me, I'm utterly disappointed with myself except for occasional achievements I've made. I have never felt that I've done my dad proud in anything I've done. My results were mediocre, my attitude is not good as well. I'm lazy, and I lack self-discipline. I'm once of those worse child you can get, lazing around not doing anything. For this, I really thank my dad for raising me up, even until this point.

I don't know how will the future go, but I hope that one day, I can make my dad and my family members proud. For this, I'll work hard with what I have.

track back entry

Yeah, another track back entry. Remembered about the time when I track back on how I got to know Aggie? Now it's Emilia~ Yeah!

I totally forgot how I got to know Emilia, and now that I know, I found it to be a little silly. Really a "long" story. *laughs*

Alright. This was how I got to know Emilia~^^ I was searching "Sono Egao Boku ni Misete" (which I have no idea why I did) and ended up in her LJ. So I pestered her for so many things. *laughs*

The first comment thread

Then, I got to know her better, and I asked for her MSN!!^^ I'm so glad that I asked, because now I have another great online friend!

The MSN comment thread

So now, I'm really grateful for the fact that I got to know 2 real overseas friend through NEWS! NEWS is a friend making medium. *laughs*

I'll definitely visit both of you one day! I WILL!! Please wait for me! *laughs*

Pi~!!!!!!!!!

*flails*

Alright, I love the way he pronounced the word "through"!!!!!!!!! So british yet not too much!!!! I'm going crazy~ *laughs*! And "you"!!! He said "you"!!! Not "chyu"!!!!

Uwa~~~ I hope he sings it that way consistently!! The "th" sound in the word "through"!!! I don't mind at all for "the", "this" and such, but the "through"!! Please let him pronounce it properly for all! And "you"!!!

I think I have a fetish for his voice... *laughs* See, it was the "tsk ahh" in Daite which attracted me~

Frankly, no matter how bad it might sound, I still want him to sing live very much!!

Please sing live more, Pi!!

By the way, he sang something like "I like ka way you move"? *laughs* And oh! He said 1, 2, 3, 4 in chinese during concert! And he pronounced it as "yi AH san si"!! He can pronounce "si"!! So happy~! His "AH" is seriously so cute~ Ahhhh.. Fetish~ *laughs*

I don't know what is this post about, so I think I'll just name this "random post during work since there is no work?"?

こんにちは！今私はとても嬉しいですね！
だから、NEWSのコンサートのグッズが買えるんです！
高いけど、まだもっとを買いたい！
グッズはとてもきれいですね！それに、かわいいです！
全部を買いたい！
三年以後日本へ行こうと思って、NEWSのコンサートに行こうと思います！

I can't believe I wrote the above just now. What a waste of time~ *laughs* I'm slacking my time away I think, since I have nothing much to do. I think I shall challenge myself more~ Yeah~

今何もしない。ちょっとつまらないです。二枚服を着ているけど、寒いです。それに、セーターも着ているんです。病気にならないでしょう。５５６６のソングを聞いていって、懐かしいです。来週から、また毎日は忙しいです。欲しくない！！！でも、何もできません。

Alright, enough of blabbering, I think the chunk above took me another 20 mins or so at least~ *laughs* I need to train more? Anyway, I don't feel cold anymore, think I've already accustomed to the temperature here.

Oh. I felt so down that I had no one to flail color with yesterday. A proper flailing. I must do it tonight, at least flail on my own. And I think "MOLA" is addictive. I've been humming it (and also singing the lyrics) since morning. I even hummed it before I slept last night. It is that addictive. Now this song will either become one of my favourite (and I hope so, since it is a pi solo after all), or a song which I won't like to touch much.

Ahhhh.. A full english lyrics sort of turned me off in the first place, because I can't exactly imagine myself singing to either "Engrish" or "Singlish" or "whatever-ish". But gosh, I'm hooked onto it now, just the chorus. The composer must be snickering somewhere now. The tempo is so catchy, and I seriously think that I've heard similar tune of "Sexy Lady" in the song. I bet it is some techno song which I heard when I was young, probably in the fun fair playing music chair. Oh, I love the chair thing. Now I feel like playing it, but I guess you don't see such things anymore.

Where are the fun fairs? The ferris wheel, the merry-go-round (not that I played it), the rollar coaster, the music chair (or something which I can't remember), even the twister (think this is the name of it in the escape theme park?) and also the rest. I miss it! Anyone knows where to find them? I want to have a go at them again!!

Did the government ban them or something? There goes my childhood memories.

Alright. That's all I think. I want NEWS. *laughs*

Sexy Lady~ (The title of the song is "MOLA")

Sexy lady
Come and talk to me
you're the finest girl
let's make out in this love through the night

Sexy Lady
Bring your body here
I've been wanting you
I like the way you move
let me mess this up

Sexy lady
Come and talk to me
you're the finest girl
let's make out in this love through the night

Sexy Lady
Bring your body here
I've been wanting you
I like the way you move
let me make it out

This was what I heard. Amazingly, his pronunciation was not as bad as I expected. But these words didn't come instantly as well. Now I should work on forever's rap~ *laughs* Never mind about that first.

Just felt like writing a little, because the previews for color were out. Was ecstatic this afternoon about the songs, but now I've returned to normal already. So fast. Now I really can't wait for the album to arrive!

3 more weeks to go before the torture ends and 12 more weeks of uncertainties. HELP.

A-LO

Halo, I'm posting now because Yanxuan asked me to, because I said I have nothing to do. Actually I do, I'm currently reading concert reports of NEWS Fukui Concert and also trying to translate some Japanese into English.

So, I'm very happy that I can understand most of the text now~!! Japanese text! I think it is because NEWS fans wrote them in simple Japanese, I thank them very much! Seems like this concert tour is going to be so fun! I hope to read as many as possible! Because then I can improve my Japanese!

My JLPT 4 will start in another month's time. I have to revise more! But I don't know how to, because I don't know what exactly do I lack in Japanese. So all I can do now is to read more, listen more and speak more!

My Japanese Intermediate 1 has already commenced! Although I think Nakanishi Sensei is not bad, she still cannot explain that well. But I believe she will improve over time! Since we have 8 months with her!! Ganbatte ne Nakanishi Sensei! *laughs*

Tomorrow will be my second lesson, I can't wait for it! I don't know why, but I love Japanese lessons more and more! I really look forward to it! I think I'm starting to enjoy learning Japanese. Getting to know more makes me happier!

Last lesson, I saw the "phrase of the day" on the bulletin, it wrote "有言実行", yuu gen jik kou, which means do what you say. The first thing that came to my mind was "yuu gen jik kou, kimi mo hazukashii garazu ni..." TEPPEN's lyrics~ *laughs* Xuan couldn't help but "-_-||" at me~

Then Nakanishi Sensei went on with the lesson, and when it came to dekiru, I thought of Shige saying it in NEWS wo Abake~ *laughs* I really can't get NEWS out of my mind~!

So, tomorrow will be my next lesson! Ganbarimasu! And a reminder for me, update on clique shirts soon!! Yeah~!

Long time no see!!!!!!!!

Actually, this is for Brenda.. Because I haven't seen her for months~ Her hair is so much longer than mine!! Not fair!!!!!! *laughs* I'm now posting in her room by the way~

Anyway, today went out with Yanxuan again~ We discussed so much about our trip to Japan in 3 years time, when we reach 22 years old. Then after discussing so much, we realised that SG$10, 000 may not be enough for our trip at all~ *laughs* Take a look at the buying list below:

1. NEWS merchandise
2. Yamapi merchandise
3. NEWS concert
4. NEWS old singles
5. Tops
6. Bottoms
7. Shoes
8. Coats
9. Accessories
10. Snacks

How can we survive with just $10, 000? By the way, she is looking out for Tamaki's merchandise too~ Hehehe.. So conclusion? We'll be going in 6 years time instead~ *laughs* Just when we turn 25 years old. Well, not a bad age too. Since by which time we should have mastered enough Japanese to last our trip~

By the way, I want to go Italy!! Hehehe. And I think if I'm going Italy, Meizi will be going? Not sure yet, since she's not confirmed about it. Then I'll have so many trips to many countries with different people I guess? Since I still have Mai, but that's to Japan as well~ *laughs*

Nevermind, because I think everything will take time. Shall see again~ But I know, Japan and Italy are my sure destinations for touring~^^

Slight edit: My guess and Jess's guess on MURARISUTO is correct!! It is a Koyashige collaboration!! Yeah~!!

1-min Post!

I'm so happy that NEWS is going to release new album "color"!!!!!!! The only pity is that I don't like this spelling of "color". But no choice, I shall look forward to it!!

Anyway, my guess of songs when I was discussing with Jess just now~

M2：STARDUST- shige ryo pi
M5：Forever- tego
M6：MOLA- massu tego kei
M7：ケセナイ [KESENAI]- Pi
M8：ordinary- ryo
M9：みんながいる世界をひとつに
　　　愛をもっとGive & Takeしましょう [Minna...]-grp
M10：ムラリスト [MURARISUTO]- koyato
M12：Smile Maker-massu
M14：FLY AGAIN-group

I wonder if I'll be correct~ Let's see!!^^

By the way, NEWS broke their record for the longest title ever. The records were "Yume wo Kazu Dake Ai ga Umareru", "Sono Egao Boku ni Misete" and "Utsukushisugite Beautiful Eyes".
Now it is "Minna ga Iru Sekai wo Hitotsu ni Ai wo Motto Give & Take Shimashou". Nice, 27 syllabus~ I think it would be a challenge for any reporter or DJs to say this title out within 3 seconds~ Nice~^^ I would like to see this song as a main hit of this album~ *laughs*

The meaning, I think should be either "Let's give and take more love to the world where everyone exists" or "The one world where everyone exists | Let's give and take more love".

Hmmm.. I'm only going to write a little I think? More things to do, but I've already wasted half a day away~ *laughs*

And KUROSAGI Move Day! I did many things! Firstly, I met yanxuan for her tamagotchi, then I met crest for her cosplay, then I met another 2 people to pass things before meeting mai for the movie!

Yanxuan and I had lunch in the noodle stall which I like, then went to walk around until evening time when mai reached.. And guess what? I had dinner again at the same noodle stall with mai~ At the same table some more~ *laughs*

Then the movie!! I collected the tics, bought popcorns and all, and we went into the cinema~! Of course I skipped lots of details in between, but nevermind~ Movie was great! And beside mai were two guys!! I didn't know guys watch this movie as well, I thought only fangirl will~ *laughs*

Then my dad came to fetch us~! Hehehe.. So we saved transportation fee and time~!

Another thing,

Oh gosh!! I forgot about the biscuits!! Thank goodness they can still be eaten~ *laughs*

So, another thing, I signed up for Int 1 already! No idea who the teacher is, but I hope is a really good one. It is a little disappointing that it will not be Ando Sensei, but nevermind, no matter who the teacher is, as long as he or she teaches well, I'm alright with it!!
