.... (didn't even know i unposted this)

The last time i wrote here was about a month ago, and just like then, i'm still on a rollercoaster of thoughts and emotions. And i could only laugh just like how i would when i ride the real rollercoaster.

I've been quite disappointed for quite a few things especially when it's regarding my own self. I'm questioning myself where had all the motivation gone and how to retrieve it, worried when i sense no crisis when i think i already should. I have no plan or whatsoever, and the things i'm doing at the present doesn't seem to be in good shapes, it makes my mental goes haywire. At times i took a breather, or should i say a lot of times? Well, they work as effective as placebo.

Okay, that's all for some soliloquy.

Now, i shall write by what's happening lately. I realized my english has gone worse when there's zero demand to use it here. In fact, japanese language has monopolized my language use including inside my head. I know i should do something when i start to have to translate things from japanese first in my head. As a countermeasure, i frequent the english lounge we have here a lot now. And i also took part in the lecturer's research which requires me to take ielts test, in the same time it enables me to know my current language ability. Well, the result significantly shows that i have a lot to improve. But surprisingly i did quite great in listening though i know that was certainly my weak point as i'm not exactly an auditory type of person. On another event but closely related, i was really at a loss for words when someone told me i exude good energy it made her feel good to be around, that was my first time to be told that, i don't know i should be flattered or what, i was simply astonished.

Moving on to another topic, i think i just managed to make miso soup! I'll try to make it again next time all by myself. I hope it'll turn out delicious like the one i made (supervised by my friend) the other day.



While writing this, i'm on a train heading to hachiouji as i'm having nothing to do after i forgot my reading materials at home. The heater located below the seat really makes my legs warm, in fact hot. i actually was (or still am) grouchy since the early morning, i keep listening to 2 songs in my ipod on repeat. As always, Solanin by Asian Kungfu Generation makes me calm. i also found DUGOUT by Radwimps to have a consoling effect too and made me curious with the lyrics as well. Usually Noda always amazes me with his words. I wish i have that kind of skill too, but maybe it's just because the way we think is different in the first place. Now that's something i can't really do anything about. Human minds are so wonderful just by the diverse ways it works by individuals, it makes the world so complex and colourful.

Okay i've been rambling randomly here. Now i just reached my destination, so Byebye

that was a nice one

Hari Raya was.... ok

well, i discovered my dad's photography tools have indeed increased where practically now we can have our own mini studio anywhere.

i'm not exaggerating.

which also means a good thing, coz i yet to take pictures asked by sensei. nevertheless, school won't start until the next 4 days. there's still time, hehehe

so, unlike what i expected, this time my dad didn't take many days off for Raya so by last Monday we were already back home. so, what my bro and i planned was to go raya by ourselves down to Johor. 3 houses cleared!

meeting relatives is a good thing once in a while. it goes without saying though. and another good thing was our journey didn't take that long, thank goodness there wasn't any heavy traffic jam. might be faster if it was my dad's Honda Accord but that's out of question. one more good thing is, travelling in a car without your parents means you can have music of your own choice. as loud as you want.

i'm so glad i didn't forget to bring my Flumpool cd on board! now, that is really money not wasted. i could play it multiple times along the journey. oh, Ryuuta, your voice is really delightful to the ears along with such great music you guys play. kimochi ha todoiteruyo!! and what a nice feeling when you get to brag about artist you love so much to someone new. and he didn't complain which means he do not hate it. yeay!

now, i'm waiting for my copy of Weaver's cd, then i can play it while cruising on the car. i bet he won't say no to this one. their music is just fabulous! even if none of what is said can be understood, music still is enjoyable for anyone, right. but i gotta say, weaver's lyrics are really nice and for someone proficient in nihongo, theirs are pretty easy to catch, and there, you'll be dazed. Kawabe(the lyric writer in Weaver), i really respect you for this. aaa, even now, i'm playing 'Kanseitou' on repeat.


and i ate too much... i'm worried for the medical check up tomorrow. going to Danga Bay again was indeed fun. never though i would ride on that bicycle again, and this altogether with a total of 6 adults!

random

it's still dark out there, i'm writing this on half past 6 in the morning

yesterday, instead of getting my shower in the bathroom, i took mine under the rain

am so excited to get past half of the book i'm reading now. Has-sensei, owari made ganbarimasuyo!

my Weaver fever just ran up so high after discovering a fan community for them
oooh, kawabe, i really want to see you doing live performance in front of my eyes

and making a new friend who's solely responsible for making me so drunk on Weaver

am so so excited to wait for my copy of their album!! aah, the PV of 'Kanseitou' is ever making me more impatient~

and a current update on kazuki's translated blog really made up my morning!

i dunno know for how many times i keep playing Kimi no Todoke video, oh ryuuta, you really make me melt

i just started rereading Maou Juvenile Remix manga. quite surprised to see how fast i can read it now compared to when i bought those nearly half a year ago, yes, go iman!

currently trying to list up the goi that's apparently going to be beneficial for us who's taking JLPT lvl 1 (it's called N1 now?) thanks for those who's cooperating, i appreciate it! and i'm still open for those who's want to offer their help in this too

kinda regret for leaving flumpool fourbond at shah alam. otherwise, i could flail while reading it. haven't read the latter half yet.

just so pissed off with the internet at this house. is what my dad says true that in very near future we're using fibre optic? he says it's the yellow line i can see on the telekom wireline by the road. i want to believe it but i dunno.... please spare me from this so-infuriating-internet speed.

and wimax does not really alleviate my irritation as it only have fast speed for a few days every month before reverting back to its usual snail-pace

which explains why till now i haven't watched Hotaru no Hikari episode 9

oh Buchouu, i miss you~~~~~

facebook recently is getting annoying, what's with all the hype regarding it? and how more people are just tagging hari raya cards instead of personally sending it. even sms are better, at least there's still that personal feeling as in "to ....."

but then, facebook is my second most frequented website.

and i actually found empty hari raya cards while doing spring cleaning the other day. but then i don't know where my mom put those. zannen~

and really happy to receive one all the way from nihon. thanks a lot Aqilah-senpai!! it's beside this notebook now.

am relieved my dad doesn't seem yet to get obsessed of making ketupat for this Raya. or else i have to weave them like usual. well, i don't care if i only have to do 5 of them but when it comes to 50, iya da!!

i dunno why but the Raya mode just hasn't yet dawned on me. oh, is it tomorrow? i'm screwed, haven't packed my bag yet. thankfully we're only going back to johor until sunday.

my brother is bugging (is this the right word in this case?) me as for what we would do next one week we got free coz my dad's working. i just hope my mom won't be in the way of us enjoying this duration as we like.

on this 18th, it's open house at Farah's house, really looking forward to this, please let me go!

and so much of my friends are already leaving Malaysia. it's okay iman, only half a year left......

and oh yeah, after that, definitely i'll go watch Flumpool and Weaver!!! if only they know how they got such a huge fan out here always waiting for the day to watch them live or even to get to know them personally. they're amazing people (at least, in my eyes), that's why. also among the reasons i'm so eager learning nihongo every single day and why i thrived through everyday though engineering in japanese is just so damn tough (sorry, is that foul word?)

when i finish writing this, it's still quite dark outside. when i edited it, it's already (gosh, i forgot what's the antonym for dark!) ok, numerically, it's already 7.

ついてる、ついてる

okay, amidst time like now, i really like to sing along the song 'Dear God' from 'avenged sevenfold'. well, for the reason it has such line like this:

"i'm lonely and TIRED~...."

ummmm, undeniably the current period we're enduring right now might be among the toughest times as a student in this so great program of JAD. with only less than 3 weeks away from the big and important final exam, yet the load of works never seems to be lighter even a bit. and due to own very fault, you didn't bother to equip yourself first with sufficient studying beforehand because having fun is more inviting to do, so you ended up panicking when it's only the eleventh hour. adding more to that, we have to worry about which university we should apply to ensure we would get the best of it, it's more agitating when the one of your choice does not seem to be approved by the sensei who believe there are another one meant for you.

to the point you want to say, perhaps you've reached own limit you have no strength left to take another step.

疲れた！！

is what i want to say, but somehow, it seems someone made me realise i better not say that aloud or even as a silent whisper. might be funny but according to him, it could mean another thing,

「憑かれたー」=possessed

see, if it's said too frequent, the later meaning might just come true....

and i learnt this:

疲れてても

「ついてるついてる＾＾」

って言うのがいいらしい。


-even if you're tired, better to say "i'm hanging on, hanging on"-

^-^

thanks Kawabe-kun!


and yes, Kawabe-kun, you look so smart in a suit there! XD *oh someone, would you make me happy giving me their upcoming new album due to be released by this August?*

galileo galilei

okay, not the galileo we've known in astronomical field (i believe i learnt he's the one with the telescope), it's another of my new fancy in music, jmusic specifically.

well, i gotta thank youtube for leading me to the wonderful music from them, the first song i heard was the following: 管制塔(kanseitou)




the version that i actually listened to was from their live during an event, so in the beginning it was some other noise and talks for the event. and then when the performance began, i was instantly caught."wow, nice" was what i thought. afterward, when the vocalist's voice subtly seeps in, i just know this is my type of song.... it's simply piercing.

so, who are actually the guys behind this beautiful song? i knew i've heard of them before, but at that time i have no time to care. they're a group of four consisted of boys, the oldest being my age. gosh, they're young! and two of them are brothers. i imagine how they would go to school with concerts and of course the practices filling their schedule. their official website is cute too *-*

from left: Iwai Fumito(Guitar), Ozaki Yuuki (Vocal,Guitar), Ozaki Kazuki(Drum), Sako Hitoshi(Bass)

there adds my favourite. i could see they're a promising band. perhaps i'll try watching them live when i got a chance, aside from my plan of watching flumpool(this is a must-watch!)-that is after i reached nihon of course. somehow i feel this kind of songs are better listened when they're performed live, there's more feeling in it, it reaches deeper. part of it must be because of the stage-presence i guess. rather than just utilizing one sole sense thru the earphones,  to be mesmerized fully by other senses is definitely more enjoyable. now, my desire to go gushes up and up. can't wait~~

p/s: listening back to my list of favourites-flumpool, radwimps, bump of chicken, spitz, weaver, greeeen, mr. children, yuzu- they all sound pretty the same, just how i like it ^.^ oh, and they're all males

gimme a break!

this post is just done out of my frustration of having to still go to school despite the fact that it is now revision week. so do expect some stuff just spurted out when this rage is no longer uncontainable. (and later i realize there's no use with all this stupid rage, so some of the contents have been edited afterward)

okay, what i understand from the word 'revision week' is that we got to do all the studying we deem need to prepare for the examination. well, a semester to cover seems like too much when all you did is playing around all through. so, won't u mind giving us time for ourselves to reflect on this and do whatever we can to rectify it before it's too late?

yet, u demand us to go to school? compulsory? what the heck is that?

i know u're worried and mad at us for being not such an achieving group of people like u expect us to be. but, to be forced like this is certainly the last thing we look forward to. now, i'm stressed with the mere thoughts of going to school alone. i grow to resent that sole idea.

 who says school is always fun and joy?

not when i have to iron my clothes(an action i don't particularly enjoy since i was small) and when i desire to casually wear something i feel comfortable (baju kurung is never one), some people say i better don't. why? to 'jaga hati' those people? who?okay, i think i'm becoming  bit of emotional here. no need to mention anybody when it's all me who can't accept how some stuff work. it's just like that, for anything, it can hardly ever be amiable to every single person. so, in this case, i just fell to be the opposing party.

and getting on the bus is not exactly what i say pleasant. while i'm all up to the eco-thingy, better get on a single transportation with lots of people to reduce the emission, but this selfish me like not the rush and such unfortunate times where keep standing and finding balance seems arduous.

and once school over, i could get caught with lethargy and ended up sleeping my day away. whose fault do u think i'm tired out? certainly when u despise something, ur body agree with you and give out negative reactions whenever that thing is concerned, like a simple action of going to school which i start to hate enough to wears me out in no time. so, what can i start now i just woke up?

the fact is i'm not a night study-warrior.

*currently so caught up with this song, been repeating listening to this for a few days now, its upbeat tune makes it enjoyable to my ear, piano does rock! and though i know only little of what he's saying, i can't help but to just love it*

十九

i remembered somewhere in textbooks during my high school years, the number 19 an important number for certain people.. i guess it was something to do with 'ajaran sesat'

i guess my memories are still not that bad

considering i'm still 19

but it all felt so instantaneous...

oh yea, it's already the end of november, is mostly what i could think of now

being such a pathetic pessimist for a moment, i'm jittery for the exam is drawing near


anyway, thanks for the lot who made me happy today, i love you all!! and for the others too, i love you too! certainly it's like seiji once said in his blog "人間が産まれた日、自分で望んで産まれて来たのか、ただの運命のなのかはわからないけ

ど、命が誕生した日を祝うのは素晴らしい事だと思う。"

urm, my flumpool love is still far from ceasing :D

and now, presenting a quite explicit video :P but intentionally put here for the title really match the prominence of the moment

『19才』

useless evasion + anticipation

i don't like saying it like this, but it seems i'm so always quite in trouble that i create by myself. and thus, panic follows.

honestly, so many obligations that i have but this lazy self just continues its vain effort of denying them all. gosh, i've promised myself i would be a better person, what more now i'm already in sem 2 of my 2nd year in jad. i'm already halfway to my target to fly to nihon.

alas, the thing i constantly fear happens.

is this what they say "history repeats itself"??

i had already felt so sluggish even in the first week since sem2 started. and it doesn't change much it has now turned to week 4 already. yes, almost a month. yes, supposed there's already a lot i should have learnt and carved those into my mind. yes, in this kind of time, the quizzes and tests follow to appear to put all of those in check. but then,i still am so comfortable of being idle, doing nothing. little do i care about the classes and all. am i qualified to be considered as humans? humans have their own useful functions, rite?

i'm quite petrified with the thoughts of having tests (this coming week, i'm doomed with the zairyou and jouhou shori having test one after another, and my dread towards c language still haven't come to its end) , but still this body responds so little to make an approach to overcome all that. like how my heart still yearns more to feed my current obsession. my eyes seem to refuse meeting those stuff i'm originally supposed to confront with. my fingers constantly dance on this black keyboard like how i'm doing it now and my back prefers to be lying down being so cozy. ああ、どうすれば良い？？

let's take it one by one for the moment. ganbarimasu!! and yes, i just like to embed videos in my post, so here i present, "sakebe"!! for the sole reason of the shared line in the song and my post today-"history repeats itself" :P




_____++if you perhaps are thinking, eh, this kid hasn't ended the post yet? yup, somehow i ended up so long, if u treasure your time, feel free to use it for somewhere else useful, as how bad i felt stealing ur time for such crap, amidst this excitement, i myself felt bad wasting my time away ++______


so, along with all those vain denial, i am also overwhelmed by sheer anticipation. 1st would be as i had stated before where i finally found what i need/want. though it was with some objections but for such a thing when i feel it's more profitable just to get it, even it'll cost me, i'll go for it. there goes a part of my saving for my new jisho! so now, what's left is to patiently wait it to arrive here :D

and 2ndly, this too would cost me but definitely i won't miss this chance. i was so extremely ecstatic to receive the news of the release of the full album from none other but my favourite japanese band, flumpool!! this is apparently their first time releasing a full one, even the previous one was a mini album as it only contained a number of songs(which i listen to by getting it from widely-used means - internet). what made me more delightful is the surprisingly affordable price they would sell it. zettaini, chanto te ni ireruyo!! well, there is still a while until the awaited release day, but i'm so inpatient now. hope this one will cover the dejection of not being able to fulfill my desire of watching them live.

un, as the previous one, they never fail to create such an attention grabber as the cover. this one somehow makes me feel like pinching those chubby cheeks~~

long-distance, supernova

it's like i always miss out writing down things that plausibly be the most memorable moments i ever have but certainly i'll say, this year's raya was a blast.

definitely, it was quite unexpected but all the way through, how we ended up having a convoy and everyone's having fun can hardly be forgotten. i can't express enough gratitude to all my friends who made all that happen, i'm so happy it all beyond words. thanks for all who came to my house last friday, altogether in 9 cars. glad u're all so pleased. sorry there wasn't enough satay for all of you anyway. but still, thanks! and for the convoy the next day, i would say, it was entirely fabulous and exciting! especially thanks to izmier who gave me a ride on his car, truly thank you for driving carefully instead of scaring me :P. one thing i would laugh each time remembering this would be the scene of a row of cars with 'P' driving down the road... hahaha, what a wonderful convoy that certainly was. (now i sound like yoda)

the whole members of the convoy who were packed in all the 8 cars

well, everything else aside, u just can guess how this food-lover self stuff herself up that day. from now, diet ka naa..

so, as for the title for this post, they're absolutely 2 different things entirely. firstly, today, for the 1st time for this semester, we had our 'long-distance class'. honestly, before it started, i was already appalled to attending the class (it's not like i had to choice not to) as i remembered the way we had it last sem. it apparently could be the most boring class thanks to the nature of the class where we only stare at the monitor listening to whatever the sensei is teaching in it, accompanied by the slides. no 2-way interactions or whatsoever, hardly any break for more than an hour long lecture. certainly there's no way i could stand such a thing, what more, even the contents make little effort in attracting me to the class.

however today, as we entered the class, when i expected it was gonna be a 'real time'-sort of live video conference for today is our first class, we were served straight to the contents-the recorded video. i could only say i was instantly filled with all the negative feelings, please, spare me from this. but then, once it started, no image of the sensei, his voice could be heard but only the front page of the powerpoint slide could be seen on screen.

"oops, i forgot to turn on the camera"

he's funny.

certainly, this time we get a different sensei for this, well, they're different subjects. though this time, he do not greet us 'selamat petang' at the beginning of the video, but i found him more amusing and enjoyable to listen to. at first look, he's quite young and energetic too. the way he kept addressing us in the lecture made me quite attentive to what he's saying. but when he says "i'll talk a bit slower for the sake of the malaysian students who are watching this lecture, so i'm sure a lot of you(the japanese students attending his lecture over there) would be so sleepy". well, one thing i could be so certain is there will be absolutely a lot more who sleep during that class over here compared to the students in front of him for the lecture. can't help it, no matter how interesting he could be.

so, obviously this sleepyhead me had her slumber moments too today even just for a while.

this is absolutely another matter, but i guess happiness do spread, isn't it? for some particular reason, one of my friends is so elated today, she's leaping so high in the sky. i'm so happy to see her that happy. how a single phone call could make her so jovial, now i'm daydreaming if only on my birthday, ryuuta would call me to wish 'happy birthday' to me....... ^-^ i guess that could make me in extreme bliss, i would be extra motivated even in studying undeniably for a very very long time... talking about the impossibles here :P there's nothing wrong in dreaming, rite :D

so, amidst my obsession on flumpool, i guess i can't stop thinking and talking about them to those around me even though they have no clue to who these people are. they're just so adorable i can't stop this fascination, it just shoots up. when i introduced them to my japanese sensei, so happy she likes them too, but i guess people's taste are different. perhaps, matured women prefer matured looking men instead of such adorable face like ryuuta. :D :D (totally how i like it though) then, as for the music, she did mention how flumpool's music totally suits the taste for those who favours 'mr. children' and 'bump of chicken'. indeed, i like mr. children's song but for the latter group, i've only ever heard of the name but didn't quite listen to them, so today, when i finally checked them out, oh yeah, my sensei's right. here's supernova



but certainly, this can't defeat my love for flumpool, in comparison, flumpool has this style of music which really makes me listen to their song over n over, together with both ryuuta's mellifluous voice and charming look. well, the other members are equally attractive too (hahaha, so obvious i'm so obsessed with flumpool now). but for a change of pace, i wouldn't mind listening to this other band too. just means i've just added another into my favourite list, oh please, stop this craziness.....

mou gakkou?

oh yea, our school officially starts as of today!!!

a good thing? that might differs to individuals

whatever it is, today we are pelted with all the learning stuff after a long while. i did see that coming but it is still shocking with this current state of mind. yea, my mind is still comfortably in the idle mood. but yeah, reality is reality, it won't go no matter how many times i try to escape to my fantasy.

in reality, there's physics, there's math, there's c language, there is nihongo-the difficult stuff, the appalling and appealing ones.

those are the ones i was to confront for the day, not including the others which is sure coming to me in the rest of the week.

but i'm sure looking forward to my chemistry class again after so long. hehehe

and, this time too, we have new TAs coming here. (for non-JAD students, TA is Teacher Assistant, they are master students who came here to aid the lecturers handle the classes/labs as well as our place to practise japanese as they live at the same place as us). the funny thing is, yesterday when everyone just got back here with lots of food from home, we also invited 2 of them to join the feast with us. with the only restaurant unopened, they came with empty stomach i guess. so, just imagine how excited they were to be able to eat the various raya food. what made it so funny is of course we had to explain each and every food served, but then we are out of words. looks like our nihongo just has gone away with the long holiday we had. misuse of words are just so plenty that made it so hard to make them understand what we were actually explaining. anyhow, they enjoyed the food very much, glad that they did.

hope they get a good first MH, as MAS promotes it, MH is Malaysian Hospitality.

:)

but, me still being me, just love to immerse myself in my fantasy where i could smile, being pleased all the way. currently, i'm so into this song (in one of my previous posts, i've embedded the prologue to it, so this is the full song). b4, i've said they might sneak into my favourites, yes, they've done it.

which has the slower rate? this internet speed or me writing blog entry

indeed, i tend to leave the entries to this blog unfinished. so, it's not like i'm lazy to update anything, but truly it can be hard to complete one whole post.... it can take much of my precious times just to write a single one... talking about having insufficient time to complete my homeworks or whatever, here i go wasting time just to express my thoughts that nobody could even care less...

nevertheless, it aids me to keep in touch with my sanity. it could be bad if i just leave everything bottled up inside....

that explains why this place has become such a collection those melancholic pieces of myself which i could also considered as junks. nonetheless, i could take the chance to at least practice my lousy english here, as i'm afraid it's gradually rusting away due to the over exposure on nihongo alone, let it be academically or the entertainment purpose which takes up most of my days away.

so, back again to what infuriates me for all day long. it's none other than this internet which speed can make me break my fuse. certainly, what other reason do i use this lovely notebook but to feed my obsession which includes streaming videos and downloading dorama etc. so, u got it, there's no way such a slow internet would please me. urrgghh. not only that, it's not even stable that it often goes on and off, interrupting everything i'm doing at the moment.

for example, even for a less than 2 minute video such as the following, i dun know how long it was to just wait b4 it fully load, but then it got stuck an i have to refresh again so it just prolonged my waiting. btw, i just discovered them and i took a quick liking to this band. easy to the ear i would say. though not as much as when i have my first impression on flumpool, they can easily sneak in into my favourites sooner or later. in fact, they can be considered as flumpool's junior as they just debuted under the same label as flumpool. if someone can make my wish come true, i really would like to watch these guys perform at budoukan next month. this band, Weaver will also perform as the performing act for their senior. seems very exciting to me but i guess dreams are mostly left as dreams ka naa..



oh yeah, despite being in the middle of raya season, i'm here at home lazing around. it's not as if i could go anywhere such as my friends house as i please, i still don't get hold of my license and even if i already had it in my hand, i hardly dare to actually drive or i am allowed to do so.

over a hurdle

yes, my booster of motivation, now the above image is my notebook wallpaper. unmistakeably, countless hurdles have to be jumped over in order to get there.

indeed, i can't deny, the past week was arduous! among of all the weeks we've gone through up to now. i mean, with so much deadlines to meet and all. we were pretty beaten up.

but then, that's more of the reason for 'rejuvenating'!!! with that said, once the last class of the week finished, we headed home, feeling like a heavy load off our back here. such a relief! and then we decided. instead of the usual cooking routine, it's the time to treat ourselves for more. yes, we went to Sunway just for the sake of dinner! it's a pity it was not the whole 5 of us as Lia had already another plan so it was only me, syifaa', syara and Ecah.

mode of transportation: cab. it was kinda frustrating as the fare we were made to pay was rm15 while the metre was clearly displaying an absolute value that is even less than rm10. now, that's what we call unwise cheating. if it's not on, i won't feel that bad. but still, for the sake of day, i guess we would just let that slide by.

so, we went in. the air-cond sure as chilly as usual but comfortable. pondering on where to have our hearty meal was tough. it's the night where we have to enjoy fully. it's not like we can always have such night to just freely go out and eat just because we desire it. so, we go round and round. ooops, some deviated path we had there when a sale came into view but then immediately we re main composed and focused on purpose of the night. more walking and finally we came to a word. quite unexpected in my part, we resorted to 'Ichiban Ramen'. okay, honestly said, that's quite a first time of me having ramen.


my takushoku

the ramen was maa-maa or more frankly, to consider that menu again in future won't likely be in my options. but still, it's a nite out so, no matter what, i guess why don't i just enjoy it regardless of what i had. thanks to that optimistic side of me. nonetheless, we enjoyed eating there, lots of pictures taken and the following is my favourite

and surely enough, once we were over with our dinner, we went wild, taking pictures anywhere we find intersting. but somehow, only today i found out perhaps i set it somewhere not right, not exactly all the pictures came out beautiful. zannen da~. soredemo, until the shops lowered down their shop bars, we were still hanging around the aisle and having fun our own way.

and that's how we spend our most-awaited friday nite. yeah, like people say, the harder u have to push through, once u're done, the sweeter the moment'll be. now, if i watch the past week in this light, i'd be thankful for giving me such happiness in return. well, i have to thank my precious friends too for being such a wonderful companions regardless in what situations we were in. arigatou!!

nevertheless, iman being iman, after returning here, despite the persuasive sleepiness, what i did was straight to my beloved notebook. and then, i continue my indulgemnent in happiness. as always, kimura takuya never fail to pull off another astounding dorama for this pair of eyes to watch and for this simple mind to take pleasure in. his character in the new dorama is exciting with his weird personalities. a snapshot. ^_^

悲しい明日もあるかもしれないけど

again, i slept pretty late n am writing for this instead of properly sleeping in my bed...

un, i woke up late after having a late nite last nite. and i was surprised by a message in my phone.

"salam, weh iman, ic ko de kt aku taw... (and blablablabla)"

i was like.... WHATTTT????

talking about my severe forgetfulness...... in this case, not only me

so, it resulted with me having to pay that exorbitant fine and losing my whole wallet afterwards... such a heavy price

well, i did not even feel the slightest bit of sleepiness once i was out of bed thanks to that.

so, today was just another day at home.. so trivial not worth of mentioning. well, i did intend to have a walk in the evening but the weather gave out warning and ceased all my intentions. my chance of a little exercise gone away. sorry Kinta, such a disappointment for you.

umm, back to reason as to why i woke up late, it was unexpected. it has been a while i've been away from nihongo but at the previous nite, i guess i really used up everything i could remember. i couldn't believe i could actually chat in nihongo for approx 2 hours... hahaha, quite a record. i'm glad i could still practise other than constant listening that seems useless as i tend to read the subtitles instead.

btw, i'm delighted to have found this PV of the new song from GReeeeN (one of my fav singers now): http://www.jpopasia.com/play/16873/greeeen/setsuna.html


though i had different image when listening to song many times over beforehand, i still like this video..

とにかく、勉強のとき、たくさんゆずの歌を聞いた。すごくいい曲だ。

when i think i should

it's just that now days passed with any of them being near productive, i started to think, if that's how it gonna turn out, shouldn;t i suppose to set in my mind those times are for the sole sake of idling around, throwing away all the ideas of studying or revising from my mind. they just made me miserable. if i think that way, perhaps i could enjoy it more. not like right now, i've been worrying over it for such a long time, i mean all the time, but look what i got now, nothing?

okay, enough of my regrets. it never ends. well, not up till now.




the thing here is, now i'm so over the clouds! when i'm leafing through my 'pengajian islam' textbook for its paper next week, i took most of the time hanging in front of my tempting notebook of coz. ok, my fault again, shouldn't have let it on. however, if i didn't trun it on, i won't find the thing that makes me so excited now.

repeating from the previous post, i'm now a huge fan of flumpool and it is obvious how i was looking forward to their new single and all. i'm so delighted when i could listen to it. i'm completely in love with it. but then, when their single official release has not come yet (it's on feb 25th-the sad thing is it's very unlikely for me to get my hands on it), suddenly i found their PV!! well, actually it can be found since 2 days ago on youtube but somehow i didn't. i didn't know that one's coming.

so overall, i prefer their previous PV, Harukaze. 'Hoshi ni Negai wo' has pretty much same air as in 'Hana ni Nare' PV. honestly, i like it if they make the PV contain some story-like in Harukaze. in any case, this shortcoming is covered by the song itself. well, if you listen to it a few times, you can sing it by the end of your tongue. it's fast but you still like to follow it. in short, i just love it. and of course, they just look so good in the video especially Ryuuta (he's just too good looking anyhow i see him) and i love the concept they used in it. the song literally means 'make a wish upon the star' so it attracting me with the falling star and all. it just makes the whole scene more beautiful.

so, i guess this obsession won't stop any sooner... just wish it won't jeopardize my studies, i'm desperate now

undying obsession

it turned out that...

i still haven't learnt my lesson...

hahahaha

just wanna share my current obsession right now. it's lonely to have it only by myself so i thought i ought to at least spit it out somewhere.

ummm, as some people might have known, i'm so excited when there's a new single release from my fav band, flumpool. and undoubtedly, it's really a good song, and i'm loving it. really looking forward to more of their song in the future. huhuhu, really wish i could see their live performance. with that, now i have more reason to study hard so that i could fly to japan. hehehe


aside from that, despite having a big and important final exam ahead, i still had the time to waste my time jdoramas i'm addicted on. as always, i would be attracted to the ost, and recently, i'm in love with greeeen's song. i mean it's really heartwarming. this song (setsuna - theme song from 'voice') is the 2nd song i heard from them. the first one was kiseki - theme song for 'rookies'. it was only by chance that i watched it, but the song was really touching though i barely understand it. it suits the mood of the dorama perfectly. somehow, as i search for more of their songs and to my delight, all of them are really to my liking. the internet sure is useful....

by accident or coincidence, it seems like i've become their immediate fan. just one thing i wish, i could naturally understand what they are singing sooner. the current me could only enjoy the music but little on the thing they are saying.

strange enough, when i searched for the lyrics along with their meanings, for both of this group, most of their songs encompasses on love - a thing i'm oblivious about. who cares, as long as the music is delicious to my ears.

+flumpool+

honestly, i never heard of this band before. not until i watched bloody monday. even that took me until the 2nd episode to realize about the singer of its theme song. guess what, i instantly take a liking to it. anyway, the title for that song is 'over the rain~hikari no hashi~'. it really fits with the mood of the drama. for me who is so blind in music, i could say it have some similar feeling when i listen to dtecnolife songs but more sentimental, dtecnolife's songs are much faster in beats.

so, being juz like i am, despite the hw i have beside me here, i surfed the net for their video clips for the full version of the song. aside from that song, there were others too from this band. my impression, 'not bad!'. this one song titled 'hana ni nare' has a catchy beginning. (I've mentioned that i know nothing in music, so i could not describe anything). i could continue listening to it even though it's quite long for a song, it went past 5 mins. for the video, though it can be better, they've done their best. maybe it's juz me who do not into video clips that only features the band performing in studio. perhaps, it was done in that style to introduce themselves to the people. they're new anyway. at least, it's not as bad as some other band whose song i really2 love but i would only listen to it rather than watch the video clip. i wonder why can't they do at least an interesting video clip to attract us to see it. in my opinion, because you're lending not only the ears, but also the eyes, so they should show us something extra, give it some story to make it more interesting to watch instead of watching the singer singing the song throughout the video. juz a mere opinion from a little girl here.

i think hollywood makes more interesting video clip than we have here. maybe there're exceptions to one or two that i like, for instance, "kiss, because i'm a girl"-a korean song and also "sayonara" by mr. children. i yet to find another i won't instantly forget. i'm really looking forward to more interesting PV......
