before i start on the con, i have to say that i salute my mum. she asked me what was the chinese name of the band i was gonna watch. so i told her “彩虹乐团" (rainbow band) and showed her the XXX CD. i also said it was their 20th anniversary live. she was surprised, saying they didn’t look that old.

then she went, “what did you say their name was? arashi?” o.O “what has arashi gotta do with them? it’s rainbow band! arashi’s average age is only a few years older than i am,” i told her. “oh? they look alike",” came the reply. why in the world would she think that?! on a semi-related note, she can recognize KAT-TUN! but probably only when they’re all together, rather than individual members. haha.


to the con report proper! )

if kaichou wa meido-sama ever gets a live-action adaptation, i will totally want GACKT to play usui takumi!!!! KYAAAAA~

what would he think about portraying a sixteen-year-old though? XD he can definitely pull off the cool scenes... but i wanna watch him in the super dere scenes! (*_*)

by the way, i don't care who the rest of the cast are; i just hope no one i dislike is in it. *lalala*

that said, i really love takumi's voice in the anime. <333 but the voice actor, okamoto nobuhiko, isn't very cute so he can't play takumi in the live-action. *bricked* i still have respect for the guy though. i think he's amazing. makes me kinda sad i didn't go for voice acting classes... er... two or three years ago? i forgot. lol.

anyway, okamoto also played kisa in sekai ichi hatsukoi. =) i didn't fall for kisa's voice though. i can't even recall how he sounds like (when they're supposed to sound the same. lmao~). i just can't play takumi's voice with kisa's face. rofl. i need to pay more attention to kisa from now on. heh~ 

yes, i do realize i'm making it seem like this is real. pardon my flightiness. i think i'll have sweet dreams tonight. ciao~

i dreamt of koki last night! XDDDDD but i totally have selective memory nowadays when it comes to my dreams so all i remember are bits and pieces. the dream was very short and i woke up in the middle of it, still groggy and thinking i'm still in dreamland. i tried to get back to sleep after i realized what an amazing dream it could have continued to be... but of course, i couldn't fall back asleep. T.T

koki was on a small stage, (with the rest of KAT-TUN, i presume) trying to get the audience hyped up and he spoke in mandarin! but i forgot what he said. lol. it was open-air but at night so the place looked enclosed. however, it wasn't packed with hoards and hoards of people. less than a thousand people were there which would be weird in real life. keke~

i was quite close to the stage so i saw koki's features clearly. o(*_*)o i remember flailing with whoever i was with. lol. we waved and screamed a lot too! ^.^

apparently the only person in my dream i remember is koki. :p he must've been really sparkly. lol~

i managed to leave home a little earlier today and decided to do some shopping~

first, i went to novena square to buy a pair of jogging shoes. no luck. the ones that i like are too expensive. >.<

i wanted to go back but made a detour to orchard. keke~ i entered charles & keith and spied a pair of lovely light grey moccasins! it's accented with brown along the edges. XD unfortunately, it's not very cheap and more importantly, only the black ones were in my size! but i only want the grey one! T.T the shop assistant said the bugis branch have it in my size but for some stupid reason, i didn't reserve it. i feel like a total baka right now. *facepalm*

oh yes, i saw a guy whose attire was the bane of [info]dontstopmore and me both. he wore a horribly ugly tee with ugly bermudas and slippers. *facepalm* where does he think he is? he's in town! i cringe even when i see such attire at the neighbourhood shopping centre. please wear your unacceptable clothes only at home where you won't hurt innocent eyes outside. *tries to forget*

back to my adventure. i really wanted to go home after shopping at a few more shoe shops but my legs brought me to the comics section, kinokuniya, instead. lol.

en route, i passed by the magazines section and this caught my eye! it's the roen 2011 fall & winter collection e-mook! it's black with such a huge skull across it. i wouldn't have missed it. haha. plus, i saw hyde's and miyavi's names!! *hyperventilates* kyaaaaaa~!~!~! 落ち着け、俺!(笑)i don't like the bag though. and it's super expensive - close to 50sgd if i remember rightly. :/

the hairstyle mags were nearby and every time i saw a baldie, my mind went "ueda!" and my heart skipped a beat. rofl~

since i was already there, i popped by the idol magazine section. ^.^v at first glance, kis-my-ft2 graced practically every cover. but still, i saw the december potato issue with kame on the cover! kyaaaaaa~!!!! then i saw the duet october issue with kame, koki and maru on the cover! triple kyaaaaaa!!!!  落ち着けよ、俺!then somehow i drifted off to the kpop section and saw a.n.jell!!! *hyperventilates again*

it's a miracle i'm still alive? keke~

it's been a long time since i bought any idol mags. but i managed to be a good girl and didn't buy any. *beams* besides, the reason i went to kino was to search for the sekai ichi hatsukoi manga, of course. lol~ my legs wouldn't listen to my heart. :p

it was so hard trying to find the manga. =.= here's a list of other mangas i found instead. i don't read mangas so i know mostly only the famous ones. :p
- gto -> so nostalgic! 超なつかしい、これ~ i wanna watch the drama again!
- monster -> this is nostalgic too! i wanna watch the anime againnnnnn~
- ranma
- suzumiya haruhi
- tamagotchi -> i had one years ago. the toy, not the manga. lol~
- one piece~
- kimi to boku -> i've no idea what this is but it sounds familiar to me
- inuyasha
- kaibutsu kun -> seriously, why do i think ohno's kaibutsu kun is cuter than the manga version?? lol~
- fairy tail -> i keep telling myself to read this (my bro has them) but i never got started
- akb49 -> =.=
- kuro shitsuji -> [info]ivory_sg04, why is the blonde guy with black glasses and wearing the black uniform so.. er.. ugly? *bricked* i thought the guy in white uniform was cool though. heh~
- kami no shizuku!! <33333

anyway, i gave up looking for sekai ichi and asked the counter for help. dang i should've done it earlier. that guy didn't even have to check to tell me straightaway that they didn't carry that series! however, the liang court branch has it. this is fate. liang court is out of the way for me so i won't (i won't, right?) go all the way there to buy it.

this may very well be a blessing in disguise though. i can save money and time. seriously, i don't even have time to clear my backlog of dramas to watch and i wanna read manga?! geez.

this time, i really made up my mind to go back but i got distracted by chun li after i left the store. damn glass windows. lol.

i finally reached my neighbourhood and went to buy cheesecake from ichiban sushi but they were all sold out! -.-''' sorry everyone at home. no cheesecake today. in the end, i went home empty-handed. *sigh*

by the way, i'm a little annoyed i didn't see any cute guys today. and my bangs were so obedient today! what a waste. :p

on friday, i told my colleague that sunday will be maru's birthday! <333

she knows about KAT-TUN, but not all the individual member names.

so she went, "nakamura?"

(=.=)'''

i replied, "nakaMARU."


and we started saying "nakamaru" multiple times to get it into her head. :p

then we continued talking about japanese entertainers and she mentioned that fukuyama aged very well.

but she had a slip of the tongue and said "fukumaru" instead! lol~

it was either a) i influenced her too much about maru or b) her brain tried to shorten "FUKUyama MAsahaRU".

well, anyway...

<sparkly text> MARU'S BIRTHDAY IS IN LESS THAN SIX HOURS' TIME!!! </sparkly text>

kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa~!~!~!~!

i have finally finished watching わたしたちの教科書 (watashitachi no kyoukasho/our textbook)! i know, it aired in 2007. i just have a lot of backlog to clear, ok? :p anyway, i recommend this to anyone who hasn't watched it yet!

for those who don't know, the story centres on the repercussions of a fourteen-year-old (shida mirai <333) dying after falling from a classroom window on the second floor. the woman her father married, (kanno miho <333) and her homeroom teacher (itou atsushi <33) finds out soon after, that she was being bullied. soon, the accident was deemed (by kanno miho) to be a suicide as details of her bullying became apparent. as a lawyer, she has decided to sue the school for negligence.

will justice be served? can her death eradicate the bullying in her school? are the teachers and school oblivious to the bullying? or are they covering it up to maintain the school's image?

there are some plot twists - loved the last one. XD plus, there are so many familiar faces! tanihara shosuke, fubuki jun and mizushima hiro, to name a few. also, this isn't a totally heavy drama. don't be scared off. :p there's a little bit of heart-wrenching romance in it too. i wished it continued when it ended. =( that's how much i loved it. *sigh*

this drama got me to continue thinking about being bullied. i wasn't bullied like she did (getting her textbooks vandalised with the words "die", etc); it was more of an emotional bullying for me. it didn't occur to me that i was being bullied at those times. but now that i'm much older, i know better.

i wonder how we can stop bullying. it's tough when it happens in school and most people pretend not to notice instead of confronting the bully(ies). it's pretty hard for teachers to guide their students when they have so much on their plate anyway. that said, this doesn't absolve their responsibility. i think 80% of the time, bullying stems from home-related issues. whatever issues the children are having at home spill over into school when they don't know how best to cope.

anyhow, i wrote a long, long post on my past experiences and decided it was too boring and kinda depressing and so deleted them all. haha. i realise that i have so much to say on this topic. so it's best that i stop now. i should keep this blog light-hearted. =)
