内ãã‚“ãŠèª•ç”Ÿæ—¥ãŠã‚ã§ã¨ã†!!!
To you, this year’s birthday must be a difficult one as you face everyday, constantly being reminded of your past mistake. However, one must continue through life’s journey. With this, I hope you will let go of the past unhappiness and start anew. Remember that you still have your family, friends and fans’ support. We are all waiting for you to come back!
I meant to post this some time ago but was dealing with some problems with my site and then work caught up…yada yada yada. So pardon me if you find this a little outdated.
So, I got to watch Kanjani8’s new PV *it stands for promotional video*…Sukiyanen, Osaka! Lots of fun stuff to expect from such a fun group. Who would have thought of adding such humour to their video…
Notice that Ryo is not balancing anyone? Oh, but HE IS! He’s supposed to be balancing Uchi who isn’t in the PV. Yes, we all know that Uchi is on suspension. But what do you know, Kanjani8 is not Kanjani8 without Uchi. So let’s pretend that he’s there! What a genius…
Now really…who would have thought of that?
Take a closer look…don’t blink now…
Oh my…that was absolutely hilarious. When Yoko mentioned “Tanaka-san”, Hina and Ohkura just gave these faces.
So WHO IS Tanaka-san?
Seriously, this PV cannot be compared to Naniwa Iroha Bushi or Osaka Rainy Blues. I just felt that this PV was rushed out. All it had were scenes from their concert, scenes from their CM (commercial) for Sukiyanen instant noodles and added funny scenes as shown above. But nevertheless, the song is a fun one. 7 guys expressing their love for their hometown…well, almost since Maru’s from Kyoto and Yasu’s from Hyogo.
It was also in my most utter boredom that I made these 2 avatars. Taken from a skit from a Ya Ya Yah episode. Doesn’t Massu look cute? HAHAHA… Massu is supposed to be Shoon’s wife in the skit.
Oh gawd. I forgot what I wanted to blog about. I was just fiddling around with the comments for the previous entry a minute ago and now when I settle to blog, I can’t remember what I wanted to say. Dory syndrome is acting up again. *faints*
*thinks hard*
Aha! I remember now! *waves and does the aho dance*
Per sent me clips of NewS in Taiwan. This was when they released “NewS Nippon” not long. Gawd, I always crack up at the last part of that song. Coz they do this movement where they touch their forehead and then point down slowly. It so looks like they are giving the “LAME” sign. Which kinda fits coz that movement IS lame. And WHY IS YAMAP WEARING SHORTS when everyone else is wearing long pants?!
Sis and I went for a job interview today. Well, if everything goes well, we’ll get a job at the TM Mos Burger outlet. STOP IT! DO NOT give me that questioning look on why the hell am I working there. I know everyone has that “Why are you working there when you are a poly graduate with a Diploma in Internet Computing?! So wasted!” look on their faces now.
1. I want to be a slacker at the moment but tell me is THAT possible?
2. It’s only a temporary job. Why the hell are you freaking out? I’m the one who’s working here, not you.
3. If after reading reasons 1 and 2, you still have that stupid questioning look on your face, then 3 words “Go to hell”.
Since I already filled the form and submitted it, I shall not regret my actions. But seriously, I did consider working in the coming Comex fair. Was wondering if Ling got any lobang. Anyway, if I get the job at Mos Burger, it’ll be a part-time job. So I still got some spare time.
Talking about spare time, I hope to go study Japanese. I can’t freakin’ understand the clips I watch now…ok, maybe only 1% of it. Also, I hope to learn to cook. *sigh* At this age, I should be able to cook. All I can do now is cook rice, fry omelettes and heat up can food. I should think that all females should learn how to cook so they can cook for their families next time…and prepare bentos for their loved ones.
Went down to Orchard. Brought home some goodies from Kino and Mise.
Per sent me a clip of the news report on Kanjani8’s new single and PV. Ryo looks happy in the PV. Although it may be just for the PV but at least he’s smiling again. Ever since the Uchi incident, Ryo hasn’t really been smiling. In magazines, he’s just got this sad look. In concert photos, he’s just got this sad look.
The PV’s looks kinda crazy. But it’s without Uchi…*sigh* The last part’s cute. The part where Ryo yells “Sukiyaneeeeennnnnn!”
Sukiyanen is kansai-ben, no? Which is actually the same for suki desu.
So when Ryo exclaimed “meccha iyaya~~~!“. It’s actually “meccha iyada~~~!” in regular Japanese. That means “I SOOOOO don’t want!”
Shall post more later. I bet some of you want to know about Natsu Matsuri yesterday.
Just saw a pic on Ling’s blog. A photo of her pinky dolls. She labelled each one. And one of them is supposed to look like me?! *pengz* Then there’s another which she labelled “109”. My gawd…she cannot fathom how the real one looks like. Recently I was watching one of the Gimon episodes…
This is one of the banba or commonly known as “109 辣妹”.
The look on Uchi’s face is classic manz. That disgusted look the minute he saw the girls.
Talking about clips…I absolutely love the one where KAT-TUN and Kanjani8 act out romantic scenes. Especially the Marux2 combi. You can imagine what it’s like with Aho (Maruyama). I tell you, I really couldn’t stop laughing. Laughing so hard till I had to bang my fists on the arm rests of the chair.
Per was so nice! She translated the whole clip for me. So I’ll paste the Marux2 part…
Kame: Ah, next, Nakamaru-kun!
Hina: this is very much like some renai broadcast ne?
NMaru: Ah, so nervous! my partner is.. Maruyama-kun!~
Hina: Maru!
Uchi: Maru-chan!
Kame: Maru-maru combi desukedo
Hina: dunno blahblah what.. pls tell us the situation
Kame: Hai.. Nakamaru’s romantic scene is.. Getsumen! Moon’s surface..
Nmaru: no prob
Kame: what kind of a situation is it?
Nmaru: Oh it’s a setting where we go to the moon for a date and you can see the earth from the moon’s surface
Kame: Yoii starto!
*star wars music* HAHAHA
Nmaru: Maruko? (HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA)
Maru: hai, nani?
Nmaru: look there… the earth is that gorgeous..~
Maru: aaaah (weird shriek) Yatta, ponnnnn~
Nmaru: pain!
Nmaru: (turns around) You’re more gorgeous than that earth’s surface!
Maru: Iyaaaaaaaaa~~~~~
*music plays*
Maru bounces up and dances accordingly
Hina: no no, Finished already lah! *smack*
*Kame smacks him too*
Nakamaru called Aho “Maruko”!!! OMG…*LAUGHS OUT LOUD* And dear “Maruko” answers in a high pitched voice…and…and…”she” shrieks!!! *LAUGHS OUT LOUD AGAIN*
“Maruko”
Then when the scene ends and the music comes on, Aho bounces up and starts dancing with a weird expression on his face. *LAUGHS EXTRA LOUD* OMG…I can just die of laughter.
*covers mouth* Ok ok…enough enough…
I updated the radio on the side. *points to the left* I cleared some, added 4 songs and of course left the NewS and Kanjani8 ones there. Haha…
Introduction of new songs…
1) Lene Marlin – How Would It Be
A new Lene Marlin song. It’s kinda stuck in my head at the moment. The whole song is like this big “if”. If this thing happened, how would it be like? I kinda start to think all sorts of “if” questions and start to wonder how would it be like then.
2) NANA starring Mika Nakashima – Glamorous Sky
Aha! I know Ling loves this song. Sung by Ozaki Nana (Mika Nakashima) in the movie. Still looking for the other song in the movie… Ling is really rubbing all her love for NANA over me.
3) NewS – Yume no Kazu Dake Ai ga Umareru
Yet another NewS song. One of my favourites. If I had to choose the top 5 NewS songs, I would choose “Zutto” as first. Then this song. Then “Cherish”. Then “Love Song” (I know it’s YamaP’s song lahz…) Then “Koi Yake”.
4) Sonim – Asunaro Ginga
The PV *promotional video* for this song is so sad. There’s a blog entry on it…here.
Kanjani8’s new single is releasing soon. Titled “好ãã‚„ãã‚“ã€å¤§é˜ª”. Should I get it?
Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…
I can’t believe I just cut something off my Myojo magazine. Some more it’s the one with NewS on the cover. Ling, you must kowtow to me 100 times for the NANA poster I cut out for you. *kidding* No lahz, you were just lucky that the back wasn’t…
1) NewS or Massu…coz I WILL WANT IT!!!
2) Kanjani8 or Ryo…coz maybe I will want it and it will be reserved for Per if she hasn’t got that copy.
3) KAT-TUN or Jin or Kame or Uchi…coz Sis will want it.
I re-read my previous entry to see what’s so Korean-y about it that Ling said I’m into Korean stuff now. Oh…the vcd prize? Haha, let me get this straight. I’m not crazy over Korean stuff. Just happen to like certain shows or certain singers. It’s not even like one quarter of my liking for Japanese stuff. HAHAHA…
So I met up with Ling and Xiu Wei today. We had (a super late) lunch with Mr D. Coz Ling…ahem ahem…was late as usual. I passed Ling all the NANA stuff I collected for her plus the poster. So I guess she’s thrilled with her stuff now…haha…
Rushed back home to go down to Orchard with Sis. Meeting Joyce for dinner. Dinner was at Pepper Lunch in Taka. The irritating thing that happened was a waitress kinda telling me how to cook the food. I know that the staff are just being nice, telling people how to go about cooking the food. But I think the way she said it was a little offensive. I was just pouring sauce over the beansprouts and making it cook faster while exclaiming to Sis that the beansprouts must be of top priority when cooking the food. The waitress saw it and went over saying “You must cook the meat first. Spread the butter and cook the meat. Then pour the sauce.” What the hell. I like to cook it this way…why? Cannot is it? I know I can’t really cook but that does not mean I’m stupid ok. I have a reason for doing my way. Beef can be eaten half-cooked. But lightly cooked beansprouts are not ok. They taste like grass. Not that I’ve tasted grass but you know, that green-y taste. And who’s eating the food? I’m the one. So tell me why can’t I cook it the way I want?
After dinner, went to Mise. Sis collected her Uchi uchiwa. And…*gasp* the Massu uchiwa is gone! The one from the Spring concert. Sold off! *sobz*
Per is kicking herself over the fact that she might have had a small chance of getting tickets for Kanjani8’s Zenyasai concert that was on during the time we were in Osaka. *sigh*
Junnosuke Taguchi of KAT-TUN will be taking over Uchi’s role in Ganbatte Ikimasshoi.
Too many reports. Too many opinions. Some of which is the truth, some maybe blown out of proportion. Nobody will know except Uchi, that female announcer and God. Really, tell me what to believe now.
My hair has a life of its own. *frowns*
Yesterday, I didn’t have the mood to blog. Got a hair trim…
It’s kinda “painful” to watch NewS or Kanjani8 clips now. Everytime, it reminds me of how Uchi made that stupid mistake.
If Johnny’s wanted to give him a painful punishment, I think they really succeeded. How? By making the others suffer too so that you feel you’ll never live down this guilt trip. The Shounen Club episode where Tegoshi is the producer and is supposed to air this week was replaced by an older episode. Of which, scenes with Uchi were either cut off or they put a mosaic over his face. It’s the dumbest thing to do coz as quoted from someone on Jpopmusic forums, it’s not like we don’t know that he’s there.
Per said that Kanjani8 has been affected as well.
Well, I don’t see why the others have to suffer too. Since Uchi is the one who made the decision, he has to face all consequences that follow. But I think that Johnny’s is also wasting a lot of their effort on doing stupid things. Like the whole mosaic issue for Shounen Club. WTH. Since the episode has been shot with him in it, just leave it as it is. Don’t go around wasting time doing insignificant things.
Ganbatte Ikimasshoi has to be rewritten as well coz right now, shooting is finished for only 7 episodes. Gawd. I wonder how it will be like coz Uchi had a rather big role in it. To write off a main character is kinda hard.
Really hope nothing else bad happens to Uchi. I think it is enough punishment already…
Pwen has left for Australia this morning. Per and I went to see her off at the airport. Her dad said she’ll be back at year end, for vacation. Yupz, till then, we’ll be missing you.
*sigh*
If things could get any worse. Just found out from Jpopmusic forums that Uchi got caught for underaged drinking. Apparently he was drunk and made a nuisance of himself in Sentai park. Johnny’s has decided to put him on indefinite suspension. Reports on Yahoo Japan News.
A part of me thinks that he should have known better than to go do something stupid like that. As a singer/public figure, you are all the more noticed.
A part of me feels sorry for him. Coz entering showbiz at an early age, I wonder whether these boys really know what they want. It’s like a sacrifice they have to make. Trading their “normal” life for showbiz. And when they do things like that, it’s not wrong in a sense coz afterall, it’s just a part of growing up. That you have to learn to be responsible for your actions. But you can’t help but think that sometimes they do such stuff coz they yearn for a normal life back again.
What makes me angry is that the adults who were with him, why didn’t they stop him? Knowing that he is underaged. Sure they are also punished along with him but their punishment is so freakin’ light. WTH. They ARE RESPONSIBLE for this as well. You know how adults think they know it all just coz they are adults? So why didn’t they do ANYTHING?
Well…let’s just hope it doesn’t get worse…hopefully Uchi makes it through this nightmare.
Remember I posted the Rakugo name? The super duper tongue twister?

Upon Per’s request to put up a recording of Subaru reciting it on my radio blog…there you go. And you marvel at how you can recite it flawlessly after several attempts. Now, here’s the challenge. Match his speed. It’s really OMG.
Ah. I haven’t listened to the Recomen clip Per sent me. The one with Massu and Koyama as guests.
