Sunshines for you~

My classmate gave me a dvd of Music Station's Super Live 2010 Concert. I only watched News and Arashi's part last year. But today I saw the whole thing and fell in love with this song :D... Perfect for summer! And it's so bubbly! Just my type of music. Only I'm one year late.. hahaha!

7oops and Yui

Really people... I need someone to educate me with jpop :))... If there's a jpop 101 class I would take it. How can I not know before kpop? it's not like I'm abandoning kpop anymore... it's just that... they auto tune too much and i wanna take a breather from that. hehehe. I've been wanting to see live action of mangas that I'm currently reading because I just want it to come to life :D... but what makes it more interesting is their OST. Oh how I wish authors would give theme songs for every chapter. I remember one of the authors of the book I used to read, she would put up playlist of songs that she listen while she was writing her book.. I think it's a good idea for other authors too so readers can relate to what they feel when they were writing :D.. I don't know if it works for everybody but I think it's really cool. Hehehe.
Yui- Hello



7oops!- Fallin Love



I also found a great bookstore in Little Tokyo thanks for the dog walking job I have that's near to little tokyo. I've been following kiminitodokelove's tumblr and she blogged about this bookstore they have that got every japanese manga and all jpop related stuff... and I was so shock to find one in little tokyo! hurray! they have tons of stuff!... I wanna go back their when I get my money :)) hahaha... have a good day yurubun!

More?

Tomorrow afternoon I'll be squeaking with Sawako's confession. I know I've read the manga already... but I still get excited :D... Hehehe. And on Friday the dvd for kimi ni todoke live action will be out. Why I am so impatient? when the deadline gets closer it feels like time is moving ten times slower than the usual. I try to watch Haruma Miura's past work such as Gokusen.. I haven't finish it yet because I felt like I was just watching Gokusen 1 all over again. Samurai High School... hmmmm not very appealing. I know he's cute and his mole on his cheeks are cute.. but I'm not really impress with his past work. Even with Koizora... maybe it's the hair?.. no I think it's the storyline... maybe both. But one thing for sure.. I like his voice :D... Hearing Kazehaya with a deep voice will be a change =).

I don't know if I can say I'm moving on with Kpop now... because I still have a part of that in me. And that's really my first love. But I really am getting hook with mangas.. I understand now Haruna's (from koukou debut) felt from buying 10 mangas a month. No! I'm gonna be broke! need.. a job!

Ow! And I am so loving Tanizawa Tomofumi :D... Love the soundtracks from kimi ni todoke.. I am one of the few people who enjoys reading books with my mp3. Since I'm new to anime manga world... I don't know much about their music. But I definitely like the style of Tanizawa Tomofumi. Here's a taste :)

Real life has gotten on my way

I haven't updated my blog for quite some time because of so many things.. I got so into shoujo mangas and animes :D... infact I just bought 8 mangas at Borders earlier :D... The store closing sale made me go panic buying. So far I'm in love with every shouju manga I'm reading.. I tried reading Koukou Debut yesterday online because I had the whole day.. and I just end up cracking up while reading it. My cousin thinks I'm crazy.. I think I am too. hahahahha... here's the part where I start cracking up last night. :D

And well school has gotten in my way of blogging too. Big time. But there's a good effect about it. I got my right time of sleep when I started school. haha. I wanna be organize this year and really wanna plan everything out... but I know I'll fail somehow.. the man's heart plans his way but the Lord direct his steps... I really need to take it one step at a time.

I have nothing much to say because I haven't keep myself up with Kpop so yea... good thing my fangirling is not that worst anymore.  picture that will make your "awws" go out.

Reaching To You

You know what I hate about myself?.. I get too passionate with things. When I started liking it.. I can't stop myself anymore.. It's like a virus... it won't stop unless there's a replacement... I need to die down my squeaking with Kimi Ni Todoke... I've read the manga online but I still want to have a every copy in my hands... I'm excited to see the live action for Kimi ni Todoke.. it's the reason why I watched the anime. I like Tabe Mikako's face that's why I checked out the trailer :D I hope they get sub really fast after March 11.. Because I just can't wait any longer than that! Gotta learn Japanese! for reals!

turning into an anime lover


Last year I saw Tabe Mikako's movie trailer for Kimi Ni Todoke and caught my interest with it's plot. But only last week I got hooked with it! It's very funny and addicting. I take all the bad thoughts I had to anime lovers out there.. especially my best friend :D I understand you guys now why you get so into it. But I still have limits with watching animes... I want something that will be as good as Kimi Ni Todoke.

Mico recommended a new anime for me to watch. Bokura ga Ita is the title. I can say that it's somewhat lacking of background music but the whole plot is not my cup of tea but made me get into it because I know it can happen in real life. what Yano felt is not something you can forget easily, and he's not your typical lead guy.. he has flaws...so many flaws, which made it an interesting story. While Kimi Ni Todoke is more about Sawako and Kazehaya's pure love...which we all know that is very rare nowadays.

Please do recommend me some good animes to watch that are like these two.. :D I wanna catch up :D hahahaha!... and I am excited to see the live action for KimiNi on March 11 or so.

Konapun!

My sister introduced me to this new thing... well I guess just new for me because it's been on for a long time already. I like the idea how you're not using any gas or flammable materials to make it, it's just chemicals. I don't own one but I want to! just a hobby.. I don't wanna get addicted to it.. haha... I guess if I have one that's it. I still haven't gotten my animal pjs that I've been wanting since last year... well it's not like I'm gonna die if I don't have one. Here's a site that explains you how to make it step by step Click Me!

Ryo Nishikido or the other way around

I'm not really into Jpop because I never really try to do my research about them. But because my friend Mico dragged me into this drama I can't myself to know more about the leading guy in 1 Litre of Tears, Nishikido Ryo. I googled him and found out that he's part of a band.. like c'mon! Do all of their actors also knows how to sing? So I checked his song Code and the first part is kinda nah.. but as I listen to it over and over again it's very catchy. His voice is not something I used to hear so I don't know if he has a great voice but as long as it's not out of tune it's okay.. his husky voice is just right for him..

I don't know if I'll be a fan of him.. I never really sticked to Japanese artists.. Ikuta Toma and Shirota Yuu are the only Japanese actors that I know before.. well plus him now ^^. Here are the videos that made me like him more than being the sweet guy in 1 Litre of Tears.

1 Liter of Tears

I can't believe I'm watching another JDrama! Mico got me hooked up with this drama. It's different from every dramas that I've seen because this one is based on a true story. A girl who knows she's gonna lose her authority in her body and knows that she'll die eventually writing a diary until she can't hold a pen. Writing that sentence made me get teary eyes.. because it did happen to a 15 year old kid.  Watching this drama humbles me, thankful that God allowed me to be a healthy kid and that I should take care of it.
Every episode is very heartbreaking because in Aya's (the girl) life everyday will get worse and it's a battle everyday emotionally, physically, financially and spiritually. in a 12 episode drama we will see how she and her family will cherish the days that she can still command her body.


SYNOPSIS:This beautifully moving drama is based on the real-life struggles of a 15-year-old girl named Aya who suffered from an incurable disease, but lived life to the fullest until her death at 25. The script is based on the diary Aya kept writing until she could no longer hold a pen. The book that later followed entitled “One Litre of Tears" has sold over 1.1 million copies in Japan alone.
Fifteen year old Ikeuchi Aya was just a normal girl, soon to be high school student and daughter of a family who works at a shop that makes tofu. As time passed, unusual things started happening to Aya lately. She started falling down often and walks in a strange way. Her mother Shioka, takes Aya to see the doctor, and he informs Shioka that Aya has spinocerebellar degeneration - a terrible disease where the cerebellum of the brain gradually deteriorates to the point where the victim cannot walk, speak, write, or eat. A cruel disease, as it does not affect the mind in the least. How will Aya react when told about her disease? And how will Aya live from now on?- mysoju.com

Arigatou CNBLUE

I should have blogged about this three days ago, I was to caught up with a lot of things. Anyway here it goes. CNBLUE released 1st Full Japanese Album entitled "ThankU"  it consists 12 tracks but most of them are from their mini albums or most likely it's a combination of two mini albums with two new songs or should I say two and a half (?) Arigatou is such a sweet song.. I don't know the meaning of the lyrics but just by hearing Jonghyun's voice makes it so sweet.  I've heard the live version of Arigatou before hearing the CD Version and even that time when there was no clear audio for it I already fell in love with the song minus the screaming girls who reacted so much with the feed back in the sound system. I hope they this album will be available in Koreatown.. usually they don't have but I'm still hoping for it, gotta go there next week!.. And I'm excited for their comeback as Kpop band!

INTRO

Kimi Wa Petto

I decided to watch this Jdrama yesterday when I heard of the news that Jang Geun Suk will take the lead role of Kimi Wa Petto remake.. but not a drama, they will make it as a movie. I don't really like Jdramas because it's kinda shallow but I'm slightly opening to it since You're Beautiful aired. The drama was great, I didn't read the synopsis before watching that's why I'm surprise with the whole story. A 29 year old lady have a 20 year old man as a pet.. no not as a gigolo but as a PET... The Iwaya (the lady) is kinda lunatic to think of that idea but Takeshi was not far from her either. Takeshi doesn't have any place to go and the only way he can stay in Iwaya's place is to be her pet. Iwaya's role is the kind of women who's not true to herself that's why she end up being single, for a 29 year old woman this is not a happy news. I really couldn't tell the whole story here but to make it short She started to be herself when she saw a man as pet and not as a man and as time pass it went back to seeing him as a man. It's not the best drama I've seen but it's not bad either. I wonder how Jang Geun Suk will portray Takeshi's role.. he's different from Jang Geun Suk's past roles.. I mean all of his roles were cold blooded cool guy but Takeshi is very sweet and a no pride guy, I'm sure they will make few changes from the original story, can't wait to see Jang Geun Suk on his next role!.

SYNOPSIS:
Smart, successful and good-looking Iwaya Sumire works for a big newspaper. However, her boss asks her to leave for being too "perfect" a woman. Feeling angry and dejected Iwaya returns home depressed, and most of all lonely. However, when she finds an unconscious young man lying in a box out the front of her home and takes him in. He looks like a dog she used to own called Momo. She dubs him Momo and decides to "keep him as a pet." It's the start of an unexpected life together as they overcome obstacles and become quite attached to one another. But can love like this exist? --TBS

C.N. Blue 2nd Mini Album: VOICE

Seriously I love their songs, not just because YongHwa is there... he's just the reason how I found out about C.N. Blue.. I would love to buy their albums but the store that I asked in Koreatown said that they don't allow Japanese album.. don't know why. And I don't like to buy online because I don't like waiting and I was fraud last time.. so not gonna try it anymore.

There's a news that they will finally debut in Korea next year (Yey!).. We need more "real" bands here.I thank FNC for producing great talents. I guess I need to wait next year to purchase C.N. Blue's albums.

Tracklist:
1. voice
2. Wanna Be Like U
3. Never too late
4. Y, Why . . .
5. One of a kind

All I want for...

I know I'm such a babo for wanting a pajama for christams or even for my birthday rather than any useful stuff.. But I really want it! The first time I saw Kim Byul with a chicken pajama in Baby and I.. I know in my heart that I need to have it!..


I'm not really obsess with clothes or shoes or bags like any normal girl should be, but whenever I like something it's always expensive T_T...-Why?? If I can find a cheaper one I will go for that one, but they're the only one who carries it.

My sister already knows that I want an animal PJs.. and I'm not even shy to tell her to buy it for me on my 18th birthday since I'm not having a debut :)).. But I doubt that she will buy me one. My family only buy me stuffs that I can use thousand times, and very useful for my daily living... T_T but I'm still hoping!

F.T. Island craze

I started listening to them when Hongki was in Mnet Scandal, I got interested with his looks to be honest, and made a few research of him.. then I fell in love with their songs.. (only the ones with the video of course :D ) and made me change to Choi Jong Hoon.. kekekke...

So yea.. They're the only idol group that I know that actually plays the instrument on the stage and not sing and dance.. which caught my attention.. it breaks the stereotype from Korean Entertainment. C.N. Blue is also from the same company so I almost see them as one. I feel like they need to be recognize more because they've been in this business for so long and they're still rocking it.. but I guess that's the good thing of not having a lot of attention.. the slower you rise the slower you fall.. the faster you rise the faster you fall.. err.. did I just butcher that quote? hehe.. can't remember the exact word..

F.T. Island- Raining

C.N. Blue


People call them the 2nd F.T. island.. and I kinda disagree with that. I like F.T. Island don't get me wrong. It's just that.. there's something different about them that I can't put in words.

I wish they release a music video with a clearer audio (because I can't find one). I feel like I've heard "now or never" before.. but don't know where exactly.

I love Yonghwa's voice... I wanna hear him sing in You're Beautiful drama series. I know I'm not gonna have the 2nd guy syndrome because I want Jang Geun Suk to end up with Park Shin Hye. heheheh..

I don't know if I should put them in the banner of Korean Music because I haven't heard them sing korean songs and they debuted in Japan.. but their company is FC entertainment (a Korean company) and all of them are korean... so yea.. I'm confuse
