Maybe going to McD with Joanna in a little bit, if her Kdrama of the week doesn't eat her alive. So if I'm offline or away...it didn't eat her and we went for food XD

ETA: lmao it ate her

IT'S SO TRIPPY. I LOVE THIS. 8D

So I'm not sure how much I actually SLEPT while I was in bed but I had a weird dream-thing... A.B.C.-Z got a single...and Kisumai were all whining about how that was unfair and Ebi was like 'uh, you guys got a tour, it's only FAIR'...and...yeah.

Yeah.

Looking at the scans from the most recent magazines and then looking back at the Akuma na Koi PV making of...I think Hokuto had a growth spurt. Like, seriously.

I want my showerrrr dammit but someone's hogging the bathroom.

*watches clock* ...

GOOD NIGHT 8D

I was up all night RPing JE boys as ninja killing each other. Some of them were girls pretending to be boys. Tama went locoooo because Miyata got killed. And Matchy a sicko 8D I think iz tiem I sleep. Yays?

...well okay, AFTER I eat. XD

LMAO AT TAECYEON TRYING TO COUNT HOW MANY AKB48 GIRLS PERFORMED AT THE MNET MUSIC AWARDS THINGIE.

The look on his face when he realised he was being filmed was PRICELESS. 8DDD And that wasn't even the whole group, my boy~

It's been a while since I experienced such a music overload that I had to gush. I think last time was around...when I marathoned Macross Frontier and listened to the OSTs over and over. Time for a new post :D/ All dl links lead to bestfiction , which has a whoooole lotta music. It's members only but it's not approved membership so you can just join. Remember to thank the kind mods there for providing all this lovely stuff. 8D Listening links lead to YouTube as far as I can FIND listening links. Sorry for the long post gaiz. I warn you, I fail at identifying genres too. And I has opinions, which may differ from yours, hence the listening links. 8D

First off, (this is from July but still) we have Kuroki Meisa's first official single. Like This, released last year, was only a digital single. Now, the new single is titled SHOCK ~Unmei~, which is the title song, of course. SHOCK ~Unmei~ is fast-tempo like most of Meisa's songs have been and her voice is still a bit rough around the edges, but fans will probably like it. The PV has a VERY Namie Amuro-esque feel to it but I'm not linking to that, so...hurr. Anyway, the B-side track is Wasted. This has a more rock feel but reminds me of quite a few pop-rock songs I've heard down to some clichéd lines (Oh no, baby, come again another day), which isn't to say it's bad, but imo the dance/hip-hop stuff suits her better. Still, not a bad listen, since I managed to fav. it on YT. XD The third track is Bad Girl (BACHLOGIC Remix), which is...a remix of Bad Girl. It's pretty good but something about it annoys me. One of the background beats. Haha. But decide for yourself yo~ And lastly is the SHOCK ~Unmei~ instrumental, which is what you can use for karaoke. It's really quite funky without the vocals and the classical music in the background are kind of amazing. :D Yay. And you can download the single HERE.

Okay, next is Yamapi's new single, Loveless. There are three editions, each of them containing Loveless and its instrumental version, as well as two new songs...on each of them. So we get SEVEN new Yamapi songs! Luckily, bestfiction has compiled all the songs into one so you don't have to worry about that. Not sure I can find all listening links, unfortunately. Let's begin with Loveless (I have directed you to a subbed PV here). Good beats and instruments. I didn't remember his voice being so high before but it has been a while since I heard him singing and the song is pretty good anyway. I...somehow don't have much to say 8D;;; SORRY. Next up (going by this dl) is Crush On You, which has a more rock-ish feel to it and the majority of the lyrics are in English. Unlike MOLA, his voice doesn't have all the synth, so you can HEAR it. I'm liking this one. Then we have Dance Jam, which goes to a pop-ish feel though something about it reminds me of jazz and something reminds me of R&B. XD Lots of English here too and his voice seems lower, which I feel more familiar with. After The Rain is slow-paced and is more R&B, mainly piano in the music which sounds very very nice. It's almost a ballad. There isn't as much English here but if mispronunciation bugs you, you may not be a fan of how he says 'imagine' but it does NOT bother me 8D Run From You is very very JT-esque (Justin Timberlake) to be honest. And the lyrics are all in English. Bits of it I can't quite follow without looking to the lyrics but he does very well anyway. I quite like this one as well. What we have next is ME and it starts with a techno-pop vibe and keeps that up, with R&B coming from the lyrics more than the music. Turn this into an intstrumental and I wouldn't hear much R&B. It's all in English again and the lyrics are pretty naughty, I have to admit, but I'm not complaining AT ALL. Then we have Moon Light to round off the non-karaoke tracks. It's musch like the others with an R&B thing to it, so we have a good idea of what direction Yamapi's going in as a soloist. It's slower-paced than most of the others but it's definitely not a ballad. It's mid-tempo. Lastly, for the karaoke nuts, Loveless intrstumental. XD And the download is all the way HEEERE! (It says pop rock and ballad but I get more RnB SO THERE WE HAVE IT I FAIL AT GENRES XD)

Om nom nom. Okay. Now, newest release. We all know Akanishi Jin from KAT-TUN. Well, he's making a solo name for himself with a temporary unit called LANDS which is the same name as the band in his movie, BANDAGE, has. Funnily enough, the single itself is called BANDAGE. There's just one track on this and it's...BANDAGE. So BANDAGE is rock. Though it's under the bands name, you just really see Jin. To this day, Jin's voice is one of the most amazing I have ever heard and it's nice to be able to hear him solo again. Now I wanted to give a full song link but the short version PV will give a good idea of the song. And I'm gonna stop now before I go on a rant about how happy he seems doing this LANDS thing :D Download HERE. In the same post is Kato Miliyah's new single so if you like her, bonus. XD

Turning around and tracking back to JUNE ahaha, we have flumpool's single MW ~Dear Mr. and Ms. Picaresque~/Natsu Dive. For this, I shall provide PVs because both songs are a-sides and there is no b-side! flumpool is an Osakan group who started out named as cube and then changed their name when they got a drummer. Things started really going well for them when they did the theme song for Bloody Monday, I think, and they're rising up from the depths of unappreciated indie. They're managed by Amuse Entertainment, just like Perfume, Sato Takeru and Miura Haruma. IMO, AMUSE NEEDS A FANDOM 8D Anyway, onto the actual single. MW ~Dear Mr. and Ms. Picaresque~ is the theme song for the live-action movie adaptation of MW, a manga by the legendary Osamu Tezuka (more info on that over here, you can't go wrong with Yamada Takayuki and Tamaki Hiroshi being borderline BL 8D). It's more rock than pop, for sure, and I really like it because they're good at that sort of thing. Natsu Dive has a lighter feel to it, more pop-rock and it's got a very upbeat feel to it. The vocalist, Yamamura Ryuuta, has a very distinctive voice. Even the PVs reflect the feel you get from the songs. XD Download link is HERE. Also, their first album is coming out next month. Glee!

I want to do the Playzone OST BUT I HAVE NO WORDS FOR THAT THING XD

Rounding off now, we have another Amuse rock group by the name of monobright. This wasn't uploaded by bestfiction , so you'll have to download the songs separately. Download links are IN THE DESCRIPTIONS in my links. Now, I know next to nothing about these guys, since I only discovered them yesterday. Their new single is Kodoku no Taiyou. The title song is the theme for Miura Haruma's new drama, Samurai High School (also starring Shirota Yuu). I hiiiiiiighly recommend this drama 8D It's so much fun, omg. Anyway, Kodoku no Taiyou reminds me of another group but I can't place which one! D: Still, it's an amazing song and the lead singer has an even more distinctive voice than flumpool's Ryuuta, maybe. :O The b-side is SGS (tamageta version). Now I dunno what the original SGS sounds like but this has a quirky techo-ish vibe to it. Very repetitive but not bad...looking at it, maybe this IS the original SGS. Who knows.

And with that, I leave your flists alone. I hope SOMEONE finds something they like out of this mess. XD This took about an hour lol.

I have about four LJ tabs open right now but this is...important. Verrrry. 8D

FIRST JOHNNY'S SPORTS IN 5 YEARS. *SOB* KOICHI IS KANSAI CAPTAIN VERSUS KAME AS KANTOU CAPTAIN. GO KANSAI :'D NOT THAT I DON'T LOVE TAIPI BUT THE COMBO OF KOICHI/UCHI/YUMA KILLED ME DEAD AND EEEEEEEE YES.

Also going to start on the subbed eps of Samurai High School once I finish catching up on my comments etc.

Between the PIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNN on MS and the Johnny's sports announcement I am dyinggg.

ETA: Welcome to the flist, myxstorie.

The internet is really really really slow today. *sob* Nothing is keeping connected, it's so baaaad.

So if you don't see me online...that's why D: Why can't they give us ethernet cables dammit. This wifi shit is always on the fritz.

So in June this year, Hoobastank did a collab with Australian singer Vanessa Amorosi called The Letter. It went on the Standard edition of their greatest hits album 'Don't Touch My Moustache'.

In August, the Deluxe edition of that album was released by Universal Japan. And for The Letter, they did a new collab. With Anna Tsuchiya. Glee :D

Considering renaming my account. The name I want is free, so should I go for it? XD The only issue would be my journal header but that is OOOOKAY 8D I will keep it with its ice_killer because India spent time making it pretty for me

The storm is so bad that WINDOWS ARE BREAKING. Fucking hell it's just like hurricane season at home D:

Hugeass storm yo ._. We has it.

Also, I woke up this morning and got ready for history...then I checked my schedule and found out it was cancelled. Psych was already cancelled so I figured I could sleep until lunch. Then the boarding supervisor was going around knocking to find sick people (H1N1 has finally hit our town) and knocked and I was like 'shit overslept' and walked to school IN THE RAIN AND GUSTS. It wasn't very far but I got drenched. Anyway, when I got there, one of my classmates came out and let me know Danish was cancelled but they forgot to put the change on the schedule.

SO I had a day off and my mom sent me stuff XD;

Remember, if you want a card or gift-fic, please comment here. The comments are screened!

:3

I'm stuck on NaNo and have neglected that and LJ for the weekend. Anyway, you may be wondering wtf I'm doing with a Christmas icon out in the middle of November.

So.

IF ANYONE WANTS A CHRISTMAS CARD, YOU CAN JUST LEAVE AN ADDRESS HERE. I failed at it last year due to some issues with my health and not wanting to go out in the snow but this year it's better annnd the post office is closer. I'm asking this early because I'm going home mid-December and won't be able to send them from there.

Comments will be screened!

Also, fic requests are fine. I'll write jpop (of all varieties!), kpop (though I can't promise it'll be great), Prince of Tennis, Air Gear, Vampire Knight, Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni, I'll TRY Hetalia and...if there's anything else, you can ask. XD Just say what fandom and pairing/character and a prompt or whatever.

If you're feeling greedy, feel free to ask for a card AND a fic. ♥

So I almost had a panic attack in English today. Ian was handing out the simulation commentaries that we did and I didn't get mine back, so he asked who didn't get theirs back, which I didn't. So I tried to say so and he went "I have yours here, I'm going to read it aloud" and well, from there, I started getting nervous. Him reading something is a sign it's really good but I hate being singled out that way and he asked if I wanted to leave, Of course I did so I asked if I could and the answer was NO. He also said that my grade was a top 6 and that no one else was near that, that I was bordering on a 7, which was impressive for a higher level student (aka, hardly anyone gets above a 5 at HL) and then he read his comments to me and he read my essay.

Everyone was watching me and I could FEEL them watching me, but I couldn't look at anyone, so I looked at the floor and the table and everything but my classmates. At the end, he handed it back and Joanna asked if she could borrow it to see, so I let her. I don't want that paper, not right now, and I realised that I was fucking SHAKING. People kept congratulating me and all I could do was nod. I literally refused to speak for the next hour.

I should be happy because hello, highest grade by far, but all I am is upset.

WTF IS WRONG WITH ME.

I ate too much. D:

So, um, internet is being a total piece of crap right now. Every twenty minuts, it logs me off or disconnects, which is really annoying ._.

And I'm settling for just reaching 20,000 today. :| I have plenty time tomorrow to catch up.

Feeling kind of better today. Stuffy nose and cough but that's about it, which is good. May get on later-ish, though, since Marina (girl from class) is leaving and I'm making pancakes with the others for her.

By this point I'm feeling extremely crappy and I dunno what it is I've caught/I'm catching but I'm extremely tired and my head is killing me to the point I can't look at the screen anymore. And my stomach wants to rebel. So I'm going to bed extremely early tonight D:

Sorry to anyone on AIM. ;_;

Walking in the rain in less than 10 degress celsius --> headache

NaNo count today = 19,090 words.

Also...class trip was cancelled because 10 people weren't going. Good thing I didn't pay the deposit yet. Class is trying to organise something else but...this is a real pain :/

nano for nov 9 = 16,523
