Yesterday, I gave belly dancing a try. It is really, really hard! I'm a novice dancer, so maybe that's why I had so much trouble with it, but I really loved it! Imagine being able to dance like that in a *private* show for the one you love, if you know what I mean? ^.~ Not that there is anyone specific, but I can see where that skill could come in handy. ^.~

I'm going to renshuu on my own for belly-dancing, and hopefully, one day I'll be able to do it decently. Or perhaps, just maybe, my awkwardness will disappear and I'll suddenly be gifted with the grace of a swan. It's a mystery, but I look forward to figuring it out!

From tomorrow I go into the studio for a few days, so I won't be around.. but look for us hanging out in Tokyo, people! ^.~ Sorry that I can't write much about Konomi-sensei and the studio, I know people would like to know all about what it's like. I'll just say that it's really great, hard work, and nice people! And update when and what I can. ^^ There won't be any talk about the plot of Tenipuri2 though, gomen! Trust me, it's better as a surprise! ^.^

 THE ANONYMOUS FEEDBACK MEME  

I am tireeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed. And I have to study more science. Having a big science test tomorrow, got to know it today. But one shall not complain! There's worse things in life than this. For example... things like Mira now. OH YES THIS IS SUCKING UP ROFL. But srsly, she's the most sane person I know atm.


Friends are important. I sat today in the class room during history lesson and listened to my Walkman and Lovisa sat next to me, because we were almost alone in class and we were the only ones from our friends group that were there.
All of a sudden, on random, 「無限大」 (Mugendai) was played. And I followed my first instinct - to lean my head against her shoulder. Lovisa leant back at me, so we sat there like that; three minutes we sat leaning against each other like that. In a really trustful way. With a mutual confidence and comfort for one other.
I would probably describe it better with another word. Unfortunately I can't remember it for the moment, but I think you understand how I felt when we sat like that and the song was played.
And right when they sing 「My dear friends... ありがとう」, Elsa came into the room and waved at us.
Things like that makes your day for real. ♥


My dear friends, thank you all.

Just forgive little ol' me for being horrendously behind on commenting and also for the imminent spammage of your inboxes once I have enough time to throw all your comments back at you. ^o^b;;;

InuKai day will by on Friday, the 21st, once it hits midnight on my end. *yay~* I'll make a post like always, and I was thinking that this time, if you don't have time to make anything new for this day, I'd like for everyone to rec either their own fics/artwork or link to other people's fics/artwork done in the past. I'm sure that there will be some things we've never seen/read before or some things that we'd like to read/see again!

As for me, M-sama (snowym) was able to beta a little something I had finished. It's not much, but... yaaaay. ^_____^;;;

*definitely need to work on more fics*

====

Also also, I have more or less finished translating the doujinshi OTL Scanlations will be hopefully releasing on Christmas day. Next project will be a very cute doujinshi for Valentine's Day, that I will have to scan (OTL). But it's definitely worth it~

*excited*

Jag vill gärna vilja vinna den här tävligen för jag ser det som en stor chans att få kunna utveckla mig själv och mitt fotograferande. Det är så lätt att man fastnar i gamla mönster och uttryck. Att få komma iväg till London och med Emma Svensson är jag säker på skulle göra mycket för mitt fotografiska uttryck! Genom att prata och lära utav andra är ju det som gör att man utvecklas. Vinna den här resan vore verkligen toppen!

LOL Actually I don't really care either way for Starbucks.. but I find that I can concentrate a lot easier by going to a cafe (ie, there is no internet or the like to distract me). I've been doing a lot of japanese study, and sketching there <3 <3 I've gotta find a better cafe, though, one that doesn't allow smoking but I can get a nice yummy tea =^__^=

( Lately I have been obsessed with this song... and some random pictures.. )

Nigiri shimete drive away~~~ <3

I can't wait to go into work!! There is so much going on right now, I don't even know where to start!!! <3

It could be the most amazing song ever made. For real. I just watched the performance on SCPremium. And really. The two of them singing their song together. The feelings they put into it. It gives me goosebumps all over and I can hardly breath. This was the most amazing thing ever. It is the most amazing song.
I love it.
I love them.
I love the two of them together.
Lovelovelove! <3

I'm so happy that I had the opportunity to see them perform this song live. Along with Greedy it is my favourite song. Oh my god. How blessed am I to have heard both of my favourite songs performed live? I shouldn't complain about anything, cause I've been there, hearing and seeing that.

Beautiful beautiful! <3

I have to rip the song immediately, because I need it in my mp3 tomorrow on my way to school.
If anyone want it I'm uploading it to MU, I will edit with the link soon. ^^

LOVE!

Emergency of today - Victoria's Secret-underwears are apparently toxic! Or something. Read it at MSN's homesite. Pi, better give back that bra then. Tegoshi, take off that tong and return it to nearest Victoria's Secret-store too. ☆

( Speaking of clothes... )

And here comes NEWS-rant. Oh yes. And I picked random picture of them because SHIGE'S GETTING LONG HAIR AGAIN. klsdfh.ldfjgh thank you so much bb ♥ I love yoooou.



OKAY, NEW ALBUM.

「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」 is probably my favourite track on NEWS' new album.
「ordinary」 is just like any song Ryo would come up with, like 「code」 or 「stereo」, but I don't really complain. He sings songs that fits his voice and genré so I don't complain. It's a great songs, just like the rest, but nothing ~exciting~ for me since I know what to expect from Ryo. But yeah, good song.
「ムラリスト」 is 「チラリズム」 big brother. It's HILARIOUS. Retarded, but hilarious. OH YEAH MISETEKURE. I swear, this and the song with hell of a long title will go on repeat here in my home. I loved younger brother song, thereof I'm completely sold on this one too. Reminds me of when I'm drunk, somehow.
「FLY AGAIN」, 「SNOW EXPRESS」, 「STARDUST」, 「Smile Maker」 and the singles are good too. Woo~.
「MOLA」 and the rest are imo plain boring and I won't listen to it again.
Conclusion; best thing that NEWS' have done since 2006. ♥


Now I have to finish this religion project. Then, tomorrow, I'll see how things are in school.
I may perhaps have to take a leave from fandom if there's too much to do. But this was it.

~NEWS ♥~

...since even before then, I've been hearing too many negative things.

But this, posted by kishmet, gives me just a little bit of hope.

SPECIAL COMMENT: THE PASSAGE OF PROP 8 by Keith Olbermann

Transcript of video

I don't believe that it'll be this way forever. One day, it'll change...

Former NEWS member Hiroki Uchi is back in the music business after three and a half years. He will hold his first solo concerts in Yokohama on December 20-21 and in Osaka on January 3-4. His last music performances were with NEWS in May 2005.

Along with Hironori Kusano, Uchi was suspended by Johnny's Jimusho after being caught for underage drinking and was subsequently demoted to trainee status. Last summer, he returned to show business in the Shonentai musical "PLAYZONE," and he was cast in television dramas earlier this year.

Johnny Kitagawa said that Uchi's suspension hasn't weakened his skills, but Kitagawa will make a decision based on these concerts as to whether Uchi will remain solo or go on as part of a group.

Uchi's concerts will also feature appearances by Johnny's Jr. acts like Question? and Akito Kiriyama.


I'm so spazztic ahahahahah, I shocked my guy friend last night with suddenly going all "jhsdfgjkldghkldfjg omg I am crying ;_;" over msn and he thought something serious in my life had happened, and I was all "omg my bb is coming back, now I just need the other one too and my life is complete~". Poor Jesper, it took a while until he understood what I was talking about rofl.

... But I am a little suspicious. Okay, I get if they don't write it full out because they have other things to do etc., but why do they write "former NEWS member" and doesn't mention K8 at all? Hmhm. It just me being weird, I know. But I think it's actually quite "LOL" that he gets to have a show with Kisumai as "his Juniors" while he's a Jr himself now.

... Wait. I know. Johnny wants him to be the new eight member in Kisumai. ABC've got Hasshi now, after all. hdfkösdgjhdfkgjdf omg @@; HELP. WHAT IS THIS. DO I HAVE TO FANGIRL THREE 8NIN-GROUPS NOW?
Oh my GOD.

Don't worry, it's just me being mentally insane. As usual.

Now, I will return to more important stuff... like sleeping. I'm so tired asfködjhflkgjdfhkgldf. I hate my little brother and love all my guy friends at Japan society club. They're awesome ♥ I'm so spoiled, youngest active member, girl and head master ahahaha dkshfösdfjg ;33

Goodnight~

OMG wtf Japan.... ;o;
http://sf.mcdonalds.co.jp/

YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO MAKE ONE (TOO!). When they mail me mine, I will post it.. maybe XD;;

EDIT: HERE IT IS! ROFLOL orz...

Oh Japan, this is one of the many reasons that I love you. 現実の不条理･･です☆ミ

Today is dedicated to studying japanese! In the park~<3 I want to enjoy one of the last days of fall, before the leaves whither and turn brittle ~<3

( Have a picture of Nessie =^-^= )

Last night I tried Kyuudo for the first time.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kyuudou

It was really, really hard!! I've done a little bit of archery in school before, and I've always really loved it, and I really, really want to try new things. So I took one of the local classes on Japanese archery!

Little did I know that kyuudo is all about the form. Style over substance. Emotion and central thought is paramount. It's about your chi <3 I loved it! Though honestly, my arms are hurting so badly. ^^;;

Lately, I've been all about finding myself and trying new things. I seem to let the people around me influence who I am and what I'm into, and I suppose that it's normal in a way. But who am I really? I want to find myself~~ want to find the real me. <3

This test really struck a chord within me: http://www.enneagraminstitute.com/TypeSeven.asp
I've never taken any kind of personality test that described who I was with such eerie accuracy. I'd always thought that I was the only one who was this way, not that there were enough people to make up an entire group.

Sevens cope with the loss of Essential guidance by using the “trial and error” method: they try everything to make sure they know what is best. On a very deep level, Sevens do not feel that they can find what they really want in life. They therefore tend to try everything—and ultimately may even resort to anything as a substitute for what they are really looking for. (“If I can’t have what will really satisfy me, I’ll enjoy myself anyway. I’ll have all kinds of experiences—that way I will not feel bad about not getting what I really want.”)

That is so me.. And you know, in a way I've wondered in my heart for a long time whether or not I'll really be able to be truly satisfied. I find happiness in nearly everything that I do, but soul-deep pervasive happiness..? Is the potential there? And being happy with someone.. is there really a partner out there who I could be happy with forever? Such a complicated question..

I want to find a balance between my creative, fun self, and my deep-thinking, pondering self. But where do I start? And hopefully, someday, I can stop caring what people think and just be comfortable in my own skin. It comes with confidence.. I think..

( Sometimes, another person is the best remedy to a nightmare. Especially when the dream is actually your reality. )

I totally got dragged out to Walmart to buy things for the second half of my cousin's project. I have homework too, you know! OTL

But I was able to buy a lot of sparkly and shiny things myself, to make Xmas cards spiffier and also for my little part of Araki's Xmas project. *SHALL TRIUMPH!*

And also final thing, the recent magazine scans dilettantka posted... Hirata seriously needs to appear in more magazines because oh em gee... *_____________*

There has been a lot of shiny things on my flist, and I haven't the chance to really spazz properly on my LJ and doing it now seems kinda... too late. So, you're all spared. XD

"Miso Soup" - always special to me.
I hope I'll see you again.

Thanks for being who you are, and continue to work hard for us.

You've brought me so much to live for in a time when it was dark, and you've given me my best friends of today; in one way or another.

Hopefully, I'll be able to spend next anniversary with you with an even bigger smile on my face.

NEWS ♥ 2008.

Title: Alone and Unloved [1/1]
Author: ryuutsuki
Pairing: Kitayama Hiromitsu x Fujigaya Taisuke x Yokoo Wataru
Hinted: Nikaido Takashi x Senga Kento, Miyata Toshiya x Tamamori Yuta
Band/Fandom: Kis-My-Ft2, A.B.C.-Z
Rated: PG
Genre: Angst/Fluff
Disclaimer: Not mine. D:
Comment: First Kisumai fic, yey :D I didn't think I'd write one nor write that long either. You think 4,000+ words is good xD? I hardly write that long because there's no good plot for me so I'm pretty surprised. Anyways, this will be my first contribution to the group and to the community. :3 Tell me what you think of it?

P.S: Lame title. Yus, yus. Lame summary, yus, yus. Also unbeta-ed.
Summary: Kitayama thought it was a good idea at first. He thinks of it as a small payback but...it left unmeasurable consequences.


All this time, Fujigaya thought he was unloved.

Hina touching himself.

Or: Probably should go to sleep as I have to work in ten hours but, fuck, I don't want to.
I want to muse over this picture I stole from jinnipu including her bandwidth.
If it's her's.


... I think it's a bad sign that I want to pinch Maru's nipples, just for the heck of it.
