Uh... *waves shyly*

Oh haiii. Can't believe this blog still exists.

Maybe I should pop in once in awhile. It's quite cathartic and humbling to read your younger self's writings, right?

Bursting with Love

Last year, my heart was empty and I grappled very hard to find a place I fit in. Back then I was devastated with the materialism of Kpop and realised that I hadn't especially been attentive of my Jrock self. So I filled it up with so many things at once that I may have lost sight of what matters most.

Thus after 1 year and 2 months from this post [Just So You Know], here is where I stand now. I cleaned up nicely, ne? :)

1. Luna Sea 2. Shinhwa 3. KinKi Kids 4. Sugizo 5. Rentrer en Soi 6. MUCC 7. NoGoD 8. Chemical Pictures 9. abingdon boys school 10. FAKE? 11. NEWS 12. INORAN 13. D 14. Kanjani8 15. D'espairsRay 16. DEAD END 17. Satsuki 18. Versailles 19. Dir en grey 20. Kagrra, 21. DaizyStripper 22. DELUHI 23. SID 24. X

Comments:
- I thought I shouldn't put #3 at the same level as #1 and #2, but I realise I love them as much.
- #5, oh #5. Absence makes the heart grow fonder. And Takumi's regret doubles it.
- Entrees #7 and #8 scored high because of their fondness for each other. I'm also biased coz of Jimi. Heh. Besides, NoGoD is AWESOME!
- Shuffled a lot of names to make way for other potential new groups like #13, #21 and #22 although #10 isn't a newbie. I just hadn't explored FAKE? before and am regretting it.
- #11 and #14 are here because they make me laugh and smile like a noona fan. mwahah.
- #17 manages a low rung since he hasn't even release an album and his solo singles are okay - not great. Yet I still think he's the best vocalist ever (2nd only after Ryuichi).
- #24? Sigh. Only due to Sugizo. I'll feel bad if I completely diss hide's memories. But then it's only memories. In with the new, out with the old! Bah. I'm a contradiction.

Say goodbye to:
- Pierrot: Let bygones by bygones.
- V6: Hm, easily replaced with NEWS and Eito. And Tokio's single sounds better.
- hide & Acid Black Cherry: I haven't been listening to them in a long time.
- Matenrou Opera & 12012: Not impressed.
- Hyoshin: The first half of 2010 for me, aren't slow and saaaad ballads. Ick. Maybe I'll be ready once he comes back in September.
- ExistTrace & DangerGang: Whatever.

And the Biggest Loser goes to...
- the GazettE: Ugh. My age isn't the issue. They seriously dried up. Their obsessed fans are no help either.
- Duel Jewel: Nope, no more chances.
- Jinkaku Radio: I got turned off because the vocalist's personality is annoying.

If you compare the artwork, The Heart is no longer bleeding out of loneliness and no longer does it want to escape to a place where it will be accepted.

I'm home sweet home with my VK fandoms.

Returns

Recently Takumi has been blogging frequently about Rentrer en Soi especially since last week's announcement on RES' revamped official website.

Today's post is confusing, no thanks to Google Translate, because he talks about "missing his smile when performing lives"... O_O Which I haven't the foggiest idea if he either meant his idol Hide's smile since he mentioned about Hide-sama's death-niversary in his previous post. Or he's missing his (former?) bestfriend Satsuki's smile. *cough*

Is it too much of me to silently wish that he (or him and the guys) are planning a reunion? After all, what use is it to maintain and renovate a website of a disbanded band other than to announce a: new CD / new DVD / comeback concert / anniversary? -- AND I GLADLY WOULD ACCEPT ALL IF THEY DO. So what else can I anticipate if not a project where Takumi will rejoin forces with Satsuki, Mika, Shun and Ryo?

Maybe I'm just reading too much in between the lines. Perhaps he just misses his old band right now. T_T

Hey, this afternoon I just heard about a SADS comeback. Kiyoharu pulled his magic and got the band to reunite for Hide's memorial issit? *0*

p/s: I've been reading a yaoi novel called 'Little Japan' about pretty hosts and just couldn't help pasting the faces of Satsuki and Takumi onto the main characters. There's even 1 character whose name is Takumi woh. kekekekeke.

Satsuki. One of my Top 3 Best Vocalists.

In Dire Need of Koichi

I'm feeling unloved, help me~ ;O

Okay so I did pray quite hard that he wouldn't fly down to Malaysia for F1, but this is something entirely compulsory for him. Someone from LJ has bemoaned that she suffers from the same 'I Need DVD From KinKi Kids' sickness as I do. She even Music Video-ed the introductory music/track for Koichi's 2009 concert tour.



He seriously needs to at least mention about a DVD or something. It is now April and fast becoming summer, nearly 1 year after his tour, but there hasn't been a single news or JE web update about last year's Domoto Koichi Best Performance and Music Concert Tour.  So kill me already, will ya!

If Kochan and the jimusho decides to DVD-ise this year's SHOCK then that one -- ohhh would most probably be released only end of 2010 or next year since the butai still has 1 month worth of shows in July.

And if he wants to get starting on the planned 2010 solo promotion, that'd presumably be done around August although this is basically just my assumption.

So... Yes, please to Johnny's Entertainment staff? Ample enough time to get your heads a-crackin' on marketing a BPM concert DVD, ne? Ne? NE?

T'would be good if they could read English and stumble upon my blog, eh? -_-v

15. My deep dark fandom secret:
As much as I want to believe how well the chemistry is between them, their real feelings and thought towards each other is still a big mystery. Gossips and rumours about their love-hate relationship might be true after all so I tend to shove those negative aspects away from my perception of their 'love'.

Dongwan. Initially it was Eric, for being incredibly romantic on SBS Love Letter.
2. The member I never expected to love as much as I do now:

I like them all.
4. The member I love that everyone else hates:
Andy?
5. The member I used to love but don't any longer:
Junjin because he's... too insecure.
6. The member I would shag anytime:
Dongwan.
7. The member I'd want as a BFF:
Minwoo since it looks like he takes care of his female friends.
8. The member I'd slap:
Andy, for letting Solbi walk all over him.
9. A pairing that I love:
RicDy. Sneaky brothers.
10. A pairing that I despise:

I still don't remember their birthdates. Some kind of fan I am, huh?

[ LUNA SEA ]

1. The first member I fell in love with:
Sugizo. I almost always fall for lead guitarists ^^;;
2. The member I never expected to love as much as I do now:
Ryuichi. I really hated him when he first switched his singing to a sorta Jpop-ish style.
3. The member everyone else loves that I don't:
I told you, I'll always find a way to accept everyone in the group.
4. The member I love that everyone else hates:
Who could really hate these 5 talented dudes, I ask you?
5. The member I used to love but don't any longer:
Shinya coz he's so fat now. LOL just kidding.
6. The member I would shag anytime:
Sugizo, duh.
7. The member I'd want as a BFF:
Inoran, coz he's cuddly and sweet.
8. The member I'd slap:
Ryuichi for being one of the richest men in Tokyo and for causing the band multiple breakups.
9. A pairing that I love:
Used to be InoranXJ. It is now InoranXRyuichi.

RyuichiXSugizo. Sugi's mine!

Sugizo, Inoran, J, Ryuichi, Shinya.
13. Which member am I most like:
Shinya because we love food and we like to laugh.
14. Which member I would most want to be like:
Inoran for his calmness.
15. My deep dark fandom secret:
I honestly initially DESPISED Luna Sea without any reason at all when I haven't actually heard their songs before that. It was due to my childish belief that L'Arc~en~Ciel is the best band like in the whole wide world. pffft. Yes, I was only 15 and I was stupid.

VK Night Out 1 update

It was fun! We should do this more often. But then that'd mean I'll have to download more concerts, ne?

Alice Nine is a talented bunch, actually. My bad for dissing them all this while. ^^;;

Luna Sea. Ohhh Luna Sea. I will never tire watching your reunion concert. In fact it always somehow tears me up inside that you guys are no longer together. But... all breakups lead to truer love, imo. Sugizo's  actively saving the Earth and spreading his Divaness self onto so many different projects. Shinya's, well, still the unsung King of Drummers. J is seriously successful now and and and his marriage (sorry Farah, I forgot he got hitched this year). Ryuichi is happily married and bounced back to the correct path with Tourbillon. And thanks to Ryu, Inoran is not all alone anymore.

Next band? Hmmmmmm what do you we rock out to abingdon boys school? Mish, when are you free? 8D

Love is immeasureable. But can be ranked by importance, yes?

This is roughly my favourites. Together with whom I assume to be in future. Since I realised not many of my friends are 100% sure of who I like and prefer. I've been vague after all, gomen ne.

Comments:
- #6 and #14 have both excellently matured.
- #9 and #20 are by far the closest to a budding interest.
- I'm expecting #13's DIM to be strong yet nothing new from them has surpassed NIL yet so... I say 'Grow Up!' or get flamed.
- #8, #15 and #17 latest releases are a bit stale but their skills are intact. boleh dimaafkan.
- #24 is here not because of their comeback or Yoshiki, but because they gifted the world with #1 and #14.
- due to my fickleness, the bottom half may change positions or get replaced without notice.
- the top 15 will remain. unless #13 & #15 goes against my expectations. tsk tsk.
- #19 is in the list cos I'm reluctant to let him go. heh.

For some reason I can't explain, I feel ridiculous that I don't have a favourite VK band or band member from this decade. If you ask me what I listen to these days, I'd gladly rattle off a few names but oh please PLEASE don't ask me what I liked 6 months ago coz I won't remember. The truth hurts when you get older. Hahah.

The last fandom I was sucked into was short-lived: Rentrer en Soi disbanded in 2007 then Satsuki, whom has the absolute best vocal I've listened to in YEARS, went and started his awaited solo career -- but it sucked. Really.

So after Rentrer, not one single band has kept my attention for more than a month (ouch, so harsh!). It's hard to hold onto one when I keep comparing everyone to Luna Sea and Rentrer... *slaps self*

More or less how I compare Shinhwa with other Kpop groups. But then Shinhwa IS the best so this is pointless.

Anyway, I no longer bother to collect scans, download lives or concerts which would eventually lead me to target any guy or 'guy' if you prefer that kind.

Besides, these younger Jrockers look TOO typically pretty that I can't differentiate this face from another when instead they should be focusing on real talent, real skills and making real music! They... um... I'll... stop bashing already =__=

ps: Tagging this post is horrendous work *howls* I'll keep it short and sweet.

All Shades of Blue and White

Happy 30th Birthday, Tsuyoshi-san! Oh and congratulations on the release of your album, your single and your live tour start. And yeah thank you for being MFEO MFDK (Made For Domoto Koichi). ;D

Here's my present as promised: 1 angsty KinKi [download] + 1 happy 10-years-ago KinKi [download] :D



I doubt anybody use Winamp anymore. But it's the thought that counts, right?

I've submitted photos of the sky for Tsuyo's birthday fan project. Yay! I hope he gets to see the 'world' through our eyes eventhough my pics weren't exactly spectacular or anything. But hey didn't I say it's the thought that counts? ne? ne?

Been too preoccupied with the harsh realities of life that I haven't given thought to my surroundings anymore. when I was small, I used to love to sit at our house porch as a storm rolls in, watching the swollen dark grey clouds racing with the wind. Then I'd stare and stare at the rainwater pooling under my dad's car and drown ants send floating leafs down the drain.

Nightime gazing at the moon was one of my favourite pastimes too. I had even stupidly 'wished' on fullmoons, praying that Barbie dolls would magically appear in my toybox. Or that my stupid brother would fall down and break his leg or something to that effect. Hah! Such naivety in a Cancer kid!

Well, my perception of a perfect sky is plenty different from Tsuyo's preference for white tufty clouds. But it's wonderful how he's made us slowed down a bit from our hectic schedules (which has always been his ambition).

Malnourished. Dying, dying.

I've hit a dead end with Kpop. This glass wall has been blocking my way and it's been going on for months now... Most probably had been built right after Shinhwa's concert. I could try to smash my way through or find hidden latches or steps to climb over this hulk of a blockage.

But when I look across to the other side beyond the glass, the sparkle seems to have dimmed.

I can see it. I can hear it. Yet the warmth doesn't pull at me anymore. No longer beckoning.

I turn around and there stands the encompassing mass of J-ent. Within an arm's reach from where I'm standing from.

Can I just please take a breather? It's very tiring to keep up with the younger generation from that tumultous side - mainly the shining light of neo-Kpop, Big Bang, Wonder Girls, Super Junior and so forth. Funny how I don't even tingle when I speak their names.

I'll. Just. Sit down right here by the edge of the precipice with the semi-cold wall at my back - There, right there. Aah.

Once there's that glimmer of hope again, someday, perhaps I shall rise back up and rejoin you.

Goodbye, Green Angsa

Didn't get a chance to say goodbye to him or to take for-old-times-sake worth of photos. This morning when my dad sent me to Tmn Jaya, he didn't tell me oso. *smacks self for being ignorant*

8 tahun dia telah berkongsi hidup bersama keluargaku. *sniff* We all went through a lot together. Masa dia mula-mula join family aku, niat dia mulia.. Dia lah yang banyak membantu kitorang masa keadaan Mama yang baru kena strok. Pastu bila Kakak pulak start beranak-pinak, memang elok bangat dia ada time tuh. You imagine lah now the beban it carried in our family.

Pergh. Distance was a small matter to us then. Our first official trip was to Penang, sending me off to matriculation college. Where else? Bawak ke Kelantan, bawak ke Ganu, Perak, Kedah, Pahang, Johor... Haa mana je kitorang tak bawak dia? Owh tapi Perlis takde eh. Takde can la dia sekarang.

Hijau dia tu dah sinonim gila dengan keluarga Pak Teh. Siapa tak kenal Angsa nih dari jauh dengan black bar dia? Lagi-lagi dengan ngaum dia, from afar can recognise oredi. Haaa begitu hebat peranan dia. Eventhough jiran lorong sebelah pun ada angsa yang sama kaler, you are still the best.

Sigh. Eventhough there aren't many pictures of your external body in our photo library, you shall remain embedded in the hearts of - 2, 4, 6, 8, ... 15! Fifteen of us. Thank you! I hope your next cycle of life will be good~

To My Archangel

Happeh belated birthday to my dear (3rd) ex-husband whom I still love with all my heart and soul: SUGIZO!

I haven't been sharing his songs much with any of you lot on Friendster, because I've somehow been afraid of how you would accept his type of music... Sure, I spazz a lot about Gazette and MUCC and Yasu *wipes drool* and even Abingdon Boys School. I even chucked Hyde for him. Lolz. (Thank God I did, cos Hyde's such a disgrace now)

But not one of them can come close to the sheer magnificence of this man. Yeah so his niche is electronica, big deal. It doesn't matter to me in what way he reaches out to people.

It's his humbleness (uh ok so he only changed his attitude after Luna was born), his joie de vivre, his love for life and how he sees goodness in a world so bleak.

Viva Sugizo-san! So let me spread his infectious loving with a few of my most favourite songs (which I think everyone can accept and will love):

• Cosmo Miumiu | by Miu Sakamoto


• Alice | by Maki


• Dear Life | by Sugizo & the Spank Your Juice


• Deliver.. | by Sugizo

Let Me Rephrase That...

Yeah twinnie, you had me thinking about my most repeatable Shinhwa song. I kinda felt guilty and tak puas hati for not having an absolute answer to it. However, setting out my mind by naming only one or two or more songs as my utmost forever-listenable-song and conforming to that fact would make me call myself a liar.

Hmm. Probable explanations to this would be that I can't think of any at that time. Or I couldn't remember the titles. Or I like too many to come up with a few without thinking rationally. Perhaps...

My best reason? I guess I've always been the sort of girl whom regularly flits from one artiste to the next too easily. My music is always in-the-moment, at-that-exact-moment and constant-listening-right-at-that-moment. I'll have a certain album/song/artiste that I'd like and I'd bury myself deep by frequently listening to only that obsession.

But when something else catches my fancy, then I'd as easily jump onto a different obsession. And maybe, maaaybe, all the songs that I like would be exchanged with another.

It takes a couple of reminiscing to finally get back into a certain moment. That's why you hear me say things like "I haven't been listening to them for a long time" which would then lead to "I feel like listening to them again" or "I feel like listening to their whole discography ALL OVER AGAIN!"

I'm really not kidding when I say I haven't been listening to any certain band for a LONG time. Coz I'd have been busy-ing myself with something other than Shinhwa... or Luna Sea. Or any other bands that I say I'm in love with. Har har.

Yet no matter what, these two bands affect me pretty differently from any other favourites. They'd still be the ones who can time-warp me back to that exact same moment when I first giddily heard their songs. ;)

We're All In The Same Boat

Jess, Michele, Kak Bailah, Fel, Nwar and Tasha pointed out during Jzune's birthday party last night of how short a time since we met and then eventually becoming this close group of friends: give or take 2 years. Wow. It felt like we've known each other for far longer...

Jzune kinda opened my eyes yesterday when I saw how she was among her college friends. She was slightly different than how I've viewed her and apparently when she's around our group of 'Kpop friends' all this while. *sheepish smile*

It isn't exactly my first time encountering my friends' friends but I still feel awkward to find a mutual level of comfort with their friends. Although, this happens rather infrequently. Because naturally, to avoid misunderstandings and conflict of interests, you don't go around matching up a clique of close friends with another clique of close friends.

Do you? No? Somehow it's as if I'm hording vital information from all my friends by 'categorising' myself into separate molds whenever I switch between these different sides. At times I just prefer to be by myself than having to split my life and personality, in order not to favor too much to one group (so that the other group doesn't feel betrayed). Does this make me selfish?

By the way, please tell me that there is someone out there who is also annoyed that his/her Friendster login page now automatically loads in Bahasa Melayu. wtf.

I solemnly swear...

... That I am up to no good. Er, sorry. Wrong pledge. *shoos Fred and George away*

I solemnly swear that Shinhwa will forever go on in my heart.

Those ShinhwaChangjo-ers really made me, made us all Shinhwa fans, very proud. The Oath was drowned out by all those girls' (and boys') tears. I'm sure I would've choked up too.

Action speaks louder than words, no? Ehh, or tears work better than.. than.. whatever :S

*blows nose* That was the first time I cried while listening to a heavy metal song on fullblast.

Orange power!

S H I N H W A    C H A N G J O !

10 years, baybeh~ Woohoo!

Jaya Sect 14 to be demolished?!

Read! The Star Metro, 05 January 2008.

I am surely one extremely ignorant Petaling Jaya citizen to only just realise that my good old hangout joint will soon be a pile of rubble. I practically grew up living in that mall (literally).

Jaya Supermarket happens to be the first shopping complex in PJ (goly!) and was THE place where my father would drag our family to for grocery shopping (back when Cold Storage was still affordable), toy hunting (remember Kathy's Toys? Gosh, that was my haven!), book hunting (my love of books was nurtured there) and then Daddy would spend hours in the music store listening to oldies. During my teens a lot of shops had changed. Of course, by then Jaya was pretty much cursed with ever-changing tenants. Except for Cold Storage (well, duh), the watch shop and the DIY shop which were covered in the news article.

Lemme see.. There was this quaint CD shop when I was 16 where I bought my first Luna Sea album after saving up my pocket money (the cashier was gaping at all the coins and RM1 notes). There used to be The House of Chicken Rice with yummier nasi ayam than Chicken Rice Shop's.. And what about Delifrance? Secret Recipe? Oh, and Famous Amos Cookies which I'd stare at longingly as a little girl.

Boy oh boy, those were the days.

It's said that the replacing slab of concrete will be housing a cineplex. Ooh.. GSC? TGV? Sounds too good to be true. Haha.. Maybe Lotus Pyramid Saimira. What a sure fire way to make the blasted traffic jam there even worse.

gaining through losing

In one zodiac (Chinese and Western) reading I did, it said that chances and opportunities lay abundant in 2007 and decisions -life changing decisions- had to be made for a better future. And I'm happy that I took up those challenges! *pats own back*

Well. 2007 has passed. And what a year it was.

----

The Good
1. Work: Yep. I finally got rid of all my insecurities by getting myself a job.
2. Family: 16ppl in a big loving family. It really grew with the addition of my stepmom with her 3 children (+1 bro-in-law, +1 future-sis-in-law) and my sister's fourth child The Bad
1. Health: Gained so much weight ever since I started work T_T. More stress, more tired and I can see grey hair... >_The Ugly
1. Friendship: (a) Lembu = The Devil Incarnate. The catalyst of all ruined trust.
(b) Lipas = Never trust someone so completely until you're blinded.

----

Yes, I've gained a lot through losing half of my former life. But I raised myself up from that slum. And I sure as hell won't feel bad for the things I had to do to get to my goals.

Carpe Diem, people. Let's usher in the new year with lots of love and hope.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

너무 슬퍼요 ;_;

time flew by so fast that i didn't even realise that we'd already reached the end of our tuition classes. i knew vaguely of him telling us before today, that he'd be leaving at the end of 2007. but somehow i was still taken aback when just now he broke upon us the news: that he's going back to Korea in two weeks time.

argh! this is so sad ;( eventhough i didn't learn much, but we always had extreme fun together; with me and Bailah bullying him by getting him to teach us swear words (he's such a nerd).

so now i shall search for the perfect present for him to signify the best of Malaysia and how much he's gonna miss the food, the banana trees and us.

besides that, he's promised to take us touring around Seoul whenever we go to vacation there :D whee to free food! mwahaha

....... *sob sob* Jay씨, 가지마요~

omedetou Tet-chan! (^_^)

Just when I start listening back to old L'Arc~en~Ciel songs, and just when I am about to start downloading their latest album.... I find out that Tetsu (bassist) is going to get hitched to this really purty model named Sakai Ayana!

awwwwwww Omedetou gozaimasu, Tet-chan :D
p/s: I'm not bearing any grudge because I know he ain't getting any younger..

Here's the link to the announcement on his bride-to-be's blog. Not surprisingly, their age gap is 16 years *fake gasp*. He's always been a paedo. xD

siiigh. Tetsu happens to be the reason why I fell in love with bass (and bassists) 10 years ago. His riffs were are so blardy complex and back then, when I was still a teenybopper-psycho, I had never heard of anything so mesmerizingly beautiful. Well.. apart from Haido-san. heheh.

Anyway, the point is that Laruku really made a big impact in my life ;]

reunify our bleak hearts and souls

i just LOVE my current wallpaper <3 -- look everyone, it's Luna Sea! yay!

-_- it's a bitter reminder because i won't be able to rock out in Tokyo with them.

yesterday i overdid myself by making this wallie and my spanking new friendster profile background pic. nice eh? eventho' this picture of them was during their last concert (as a band) years ago, i used it to signify their upcoming reunion concert. and that no matter how much i want them to rebuild the band, in the end they must go their separate ways again. sort of a closure to their love-hate relationship? siiigh.

for Shinhwa in the coming years, i don't want them to go through any breakups. seriously. just grow old together, please.
