Supermarket Fantasy: Mr Children Live @ Tokyo Dome 12/26
It was refreshing to watch a concert at the Dome where there were no screaming girls waving uchiwas and penlights. In fact, penlights were prohibited at this gig. It was 2hrs and 15 mins of pure singing and jamming, with a short MC or two thrown in here and there. When it was time for Sakurai-san to speak, every one shut up and listened, there were no yells of 'SAKURAI-SAN~~~~' etc. In other words, it was all very adult. The screaming at Johnny-type concerts are a must, but what a nice change to listen to something other than idols trying to croak, preen and strut all at the same time fangirls are yelling at the top of their lungs. No need to worry about whether the person on stage will go out of tune (some people are more susceptible to singing out of tune than others, we all know the usual suspects) and there are times when the audience will await with abated breath to see if the subject in question is having a good day singing on the stage or not. (if not, there is always lip syching to the rescue) XD Well, one doesn't have to worry about such trival griviences with Mr Children. Sakurai-san usually hits the right notes. :) I get the impression that the band takes great pride in being musicians, that is why they don't allow uchiwas or penlights of the idol sort. (snort). The sound system was pretty good also, with johnnys, the speakers are set in the front, on stage. Tough if you are sitting waaaaaayyy up in a heavenly seat. you just have to open your ears and strain you neck , especially during MCs. At today's concert, there were 4 towers of speakers - laid out at strategic intervals across the arena and climbing as high as the 2nd floor, gates 40 and 41, to make sure that, at even the most 天井 of お席 (seats), the sound quality was not compromised. There were 3 giant screens on the main stage, most of the time, there were showing anmie scenes or some abstract art, very simple but classic. The only pyrotechnics that was even remotely close to a JE concert was a blast of hanabi somewhere near the start of the concert. The other amazing thing was that this concert was even brought live to people who subscribed to WOW channel. I can't imagine Johnnys or any other artist doing that. After attending the arena tours in Nagano earlier this year, somehow, today's concert was more energetic and had more oomph. Maybe it was those powerful, big ass speakers they had, maybe it was the fact that the audience was more hyped up. I don't know enough about Mr Children concerts to judge or tell the differences, but I had a great time, all in all. (how stress free and light-weighted I felt going to the concert - I left my usual arsenal of concert weapons at home: uchiwas, penlights, Sho towel - all unnecessary!!) ^ ^v Current Mood:  infuriated |

In the final coundown...
Woooow, Christmas is only 4 days awa... and I am totally NOT feeling the Xmas spirit this year.... But I am giving myself a lot of Xmas presents! hahaha. I have Uchi-kun, Kanjani, and Arashi to look forward to in the next three weeks. Also, I have to find time to go catch the Nodame movie... Plus my best friend from high school is planning on coming to Japan in the second week of January!!! I'm excited, but at the same time I am thinking it may not be as fun as it could be because he is coming with his mormon girlfriend and her mom..... awk. So much to do with so little money!!! Planning on hitting up 6 prefectures in the next month! Talk about intense travel!!! If NEWS announces a concert, or someone announces an album, I am screwed!

Happy Birthday Shoonie!
I know it's already past December 20th in Japan and for me in USA but I dun care. I feel bad that I was too busy to notice but I won't let it pass!
Shoon was one of the first JE idols that I admired and took a strong liking to a lot from the beginning of my interest in Johnny's. My love for him hasn't changed. He had been through a lot and I am so happy he continues to do what he does and more~

vol 47 '2009'
Hello. its me. unless a special event occurs which I should write about, this will be my last entry for this year. The year opened with 'Yatterman' and 2009 has turned out to be a very fulfilling 10th year. Its written in the rap lyrics which I wrote, and I sincerely think (why its been fulfilling) that its all due to all the people who have supported us and followed us. We both have been very busy, huh. (laughs) Thank you so much for all your support. We will make a new start next year again. Please continue to support us next year too. m(_ _)m I humbly thank you from the bottom of my heart. Ok, let's talk about what's been happening recently. About a month ago, I bought a humidifier and put it at the side of my bed. One day, I discovered that there was this small word written on it: 'aroma' I was wondering what this classy little space on the humidifier was for........ When I checked the manual, it said that when aroma oil is dropped on it, a nice smell will be emitted along with the steam. I thought 'I should use this' and quickly went to buy aroma oil. In the midst of a huge selection of aroma oils, I decided on the 'Frangrance of the Forest' aroma oil for its healing properties. (Your nose gets pretty confused in the process of selecting an aroma oil, doesn't it? So in the end, one has a tendency to choose the first aroma oil that leaves a good impression on oneself. And you do get influenced by the explanations which are written about the aroma oil in question.) So I quickly went home, and dropped the aroma oil onto my humidifier. Since I dropped the oil before I took my bath, when it was time for me to sleep, the soothing smells of the aroma oil wafted through the air. Yes, this is very tasteful. kekeke. I was very pleased. But........... I have discovered something just now, after using this for one month. When i am sleeping, I totally cannot smell anything. Well, that's because I am sleeping. Well I guess that is an understatement. Of course, the aroma oil is to calm you down until you fall asleep. Well, that is the job of the aroma oil, isn't it? .. well in that sense, the aroma oil has done a splendid job. So I bought another 'aroma product'. This time, it was something to use in the car, which I spend most of the time travelling around in. When the aroma product is stuck into its socket, the whole car is filled with a wonderful smell. So now, I am writing this entry, engulfed in citrus smells. Well, things have been happening here and there. This little healing therapy has been going on every day, in tandem with the Kabachi filming. The days are cold and please take care of yourself so that you will not catch a cold. (↑you write this again, at the end, Sakurai) 2009/12/20 Merry Christmas Sakurai Sho |

Fish Soup @ Masamune? XD
 I am home!! (and stuffing my face) ^ ^ This amused me for some reason. The only reason why I wanted to try this is that this stall is named Masamune. But I had the Fried Hokkien Mee instead, a couple of stalls down. ^ ^ Anyone tried this fish soup before?! Food Republic, Wisma Atria. Current Mood:  melancholy |

been 3 weeks
 I don't know if it's because I'm so lazy or Twitter has been doing everything for me or if I'm waiting for the right moment, but I am finally updating my LJ. I have definitely not been a bored little person who has lacked activity (aside from physical activity). Deciding to update in the middle of finals week is clever, no?
Work is as it has been with nothing too surprising except for the day that the district manager paid the studio a visit and I was not told of who he was. I almost called him Carl, when that obviously is not his name.
I have to confess to being a terrible student during the last week of classes for being absent from some of them. I am diligently attending all my scheduled exams thus far but that is a given. It was not so much that I had given up on my ability to understand my classes but it's just that I've grown tired of it already. Most of them had just lost that thing that kept me enthusiastically attending. I had no issues with exams or papers (well, maybe one or two) but I had done them and I just felt like I wanted nothing more to do until the end with finals.
Going home had been fine as well. Before, I used to dread going home when I was there for no purpose. Since working on the weekends, I'm grateful for the limited time with the family, frankly. Too much of them drives me mad. I am still hounded for cleaning my room though. Its state has been less than perfect since Thanksgiving Break. I have been used to resorting to sleeping on couches and chairs but sleeping in such a way does not leave me in such good condition in the morning. My parents have been kind enough to let me sleep with them in their big, comfy bed. Yes, I am 20-years-old and I still sleep with my mommy and daddy. But, sometimes they give priority to the youngest. Boo. I am slightly looking forward to the end of my school semester partially because I will not be taking a class during the winter. For the past two years I had been attending 3-credit classes during winter session in January which the class was about 5 hours long for 4 days out of the week. I kind of feel guilty for not taking the winter class because this past summer, I don't feel like I did a lot of studying. Yes, I had some informal Japanese and Buddhist learning while I was in Japan, but it did not feel serious for me. I was supposed to take a class in the later half of the summer but traveling to the Philippines took time away. I tried to reason with myself that not taking a winter class would be good for budgeting for my next trip to the Japan in the coming late spring and early summer as well. And, of course, the thought of continuing to be a lazy bum is nice. However, really, I like the thought of constantly taking classes. It's not so much I like going to class and such, though the environment of NYC helps me with my morale, but I like learning and keeping busy. I wonder if I would be able to get a job for such a short amount of time. Who knows. Haha, but I doubt it really.
I do miss my university gang. I guess I'm mostly talking about Sarah, Mei, and Fanny. No longer dorming really killed it. They practically live together. Actually, it has been that way since the beginning really, I guess. Even as freshmen, those three were in the same dorm while the dorm I lived in was practically on opposite sides of campus. Also, the three of them also work together as a part of the sinc site staffers. However, strangely enough, I don't feel the least bit lonely, haha. At least, I don't think I do.
My communication in the campus environment is solely limited to interactions with classmates within the classroom, which is fine with me. Even when I commute back to the house I stay in with my elderly-ish aunt and uncle, I am rather isolated in a way. I've been here for more than a year's worth now, and it feels impossible to connect with them. My aunt and uncle, well, aren't really the defined term of aunt and uncle, but my 'uncle' is the brother of my grandfather, so they're kind of on the same level as my grandparents. I guess you can say they're my great-aunt and great-uncle. I practically only live in my room where I lock myself in most of the time. On rare occassions I am in the separate tv room in the house to remind myself that there are some things that American tv can offer me. I pretty much only eat on campus and I have my own bathroom so, lack of interaction with my uncle and aunt is easy. My dad hates it though. He wants me to constantly communicate with them. But it's awkward.
Hm... fandom-wise, I'm beginning to feel like I've been unknowingly limiting myself to NEWS. Not that it's a bad thing, of course, but I've always liked the idea of being in the know and never failing to appreciate all of the other JE artists. It was difficult for me before to support all the various jpop artists so I had limited myself to JE. My excitement for many of the other bands seemed to have died down, just slightly like with KAT-TUN, Kanjani8, and even Arashi. I feel bad when I am on Twitter and talk on and on about NEWS that I think I should say something about Arashi, KT, K8, or anyother band to make up for the spam. When I see so many downloads available, I immediately only go for NEWS. Fans have said that their activity has been so low, they have found interest in other things for the time being. I am only guessing that maybe because there has been a supposed lack of NEWS group activity, I would concentrate on what i can to compensate? but, I'm sure that once I've been given some time to catch up with everyone else, I'll feel better about it, haha.
My drama have been moderately slow as well. Most dramas have finished their run already or just about to. The only dramas I have been keeping up with are Tokyo Dogs, Samurai High School. ROMES, and Guests of Room 0. But, now that I think about it, I shouldn't feel too bad, haha. I am actually quite up to date with all of the episodes that had been subbed. So, actually, I guess I am not doing all that bad. I know I definitely need to pick myself up with My Girl, check out this awesomeness of JIN, and finish Liar Game so I can watch Liar Game 2.
It is currently 4am. I made a loose promise with my ex-roommate to have lunch with her but to be honest, I don't know her new cell phone number so it's up to her to contact me if she's still interest. But, so not to look like an ass, I'll try through Facebook. I also am going to sell some of my books hopefully. Problem is that, I found myself very attached to the material and readings of the books I bought this semester that I almost don't want to sell them. But, I need the money one way or another!
That's all. Added note~ the picture of the flower in this entry I took when I was in the Philippines this past summer. It was from the poolside in a resort in Tagaytay. Current Mood:  contemplative |
