Report of Recent Happenings

2009-04-28T11:41:00.002+08:00

It's such a busy year this year, with lotsa new plans which I've not tried before. Here's a report below describing about my recent life!

First and foremost, I am gonna debut a doujinshi with my art team at GACC 2009! Can you imagine that?! A doujinshi!!!! Well, a short and simple one though, featuring the heroine's life as a farmer in Harvest Moon: Back to Nature Girl Version! Ooooh, just the sound of the project already getting me all excited now! However, the progress is rather slow though... since most of my team members, including myself, are working currently.

Secondly, working in the real world, the realistic society, the down-to-earth world which forbids any fantasies! See how sad it sounds huh? Especially for dreamers like me :( Nevertheless, overall the current working experience is still rather interesting, and inspiring when I achieve something, such as made a deal with the liaising party, but it gets pretty pressuring and depressing when you don't get one (ah, every salesperson knows this). It is no longer like college and university assignments anymore, where you can get the long weeks to complete a research leisurely. And being a lazy bum, it definitely is a torture for me when I need to work on research and business plans on howta persuade and approach people, working 5 days a week without much extra time to play around except in the weekends (which can also be rather busy sometimes cuz of extra work) and socializing with people you don't really like... Oh dear, I wonder how bad would my cholestrol and blood pressure be at the end of year when I do a body check-up due to the many pressures during the year...== ah well... moving to the next point...

Thirdly, I am desperate for money. I never knew I could be this money-minded until I start working. Well, though working is very much a pressure for me, due to my passion for money, I am still willing to look for other jobs and continue working after I'm done with my current internship. Sigh, this is the dilemma for poor peeps like me. So my lovely bandmates, if there're any fine jobs with good pay, please notify me! *Money money money, I love money!* *0*

Fourthly, creativity competitions. I've finally participated in a Fashion Design contest which I've been longing to join since years ago. The fashion design contest was organized by a UK Home Appliances Dealer, Miele. It's a competition requiring us to design an unique dress that is machine-washable and I've got subsmitted mine by sending my design through Poslaju courier in the beginning of April! But well, I don't put much hope on it though because I don't think it was the best from me and it's an international competition where I'm competiting with people from all around the world! Ah well, no harm to try it though, at least I made an effort and joined it! No regrets! :)

Fifth, I am FAT. Omg, I am not kidding, I am getting fatter and fatter ever since I've started working in the office as an intern! It's not surprising though, since I am required to sit whole day, facing the PC, making myself stationery at my table to do all my stuffs except for the one hour break. It's so depressing to see more meat growing around me! Especially my tummy, which has triple-storeys right now... I need to work out before I turn into a Michellin! NOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Sixth, JAW problem. My jaw hurts, for around a month now since early April. At first, it was only a stuck jaw which it is a problem I had since last year, but it's getting serious lately and god knows how it became worse! I had to chew slowly, which it's another trouble for me since I am a fast eater!! But it hurts when I chew a bit harder or faster... So ah well, it's really troublesome and painstaking!!

That's all for now I guess. Take care peeps!

Tata,
Natsu

BIAWAK IN MY ROOM...!! faints

2008-11-11T14:54:00.002+08:00

OH MY GOD!!

This is how it happens...

First, i received a sms from my room mate and told me there's a biawak in my room, but at the first sight of it i don't understand just what the heck is 'BIAWAK' due to my weak BM, and so i googled the word and...

PENGSAN!!! OMG HOW DID A MONITOR LIZARD GETS INTO MAH ROOM!!? and just when i was shocked at the discovery of the meaning of 'BIAWAK', my friend called me that time and...

"...the dorm keepers had caught it. It was hiding at the back of your closet!"

OMG... i think i begin to understand the brown sticky stain on my bed i discovered when i was changing my bedsheets yesterday... could it be the biawak's dropping... OH MEE EFFF GOD!!!!

Now i'm actually trying to figure out just how the heck it gets into my room?! Without me knowing, might have been hiding at the back of closet for quite some time, since the stain was found yesterday.... oh lord, i can't imagine one day, when i wake up, and then there's a biawak right infront of me, saying 'How're you doing?!" GAHHHHHHHHHHH

ACGC FINALE first day

2008-09-28T19:47:00.002+08:00

ANYWAY~~~~~
imma here to share my experience during ACGC finale 2008...

WELL, i only went on the first day, so i dunno about 2nd day....
but first day was really...DEAD.....-___-llll
i went there and saw only a handfull of cosplayers...i think nowadays, cosplayers are manipulated to make the event more er..happening?

If it werent for collecting costumes and other businesses..i doubt i'll even go.........
good thing i stumbled upon a few ppl there....baphy then suggested that me and tsu should have a photoshoot, because we were in KHR TYL costumes....LOL..XD (thank god we didn't go in Tales of the Abyss costumes...else it'll be so...OUT OF PLACE...)

so yeah, we went to the gardens for our shoot.....and LOL..it was so funny..i couldn't stop laughing....i guess its in my nature..LOL..and because of my UBER HUGE ulser in my mouth...most of the shots have the NOTORIOUS joker smile....it's like....hibari going 'WHY SO SERIOUS?!!?'.....(but pai seh..i dunno how to upload pics here....-___-llll)

but yeah, after the shoot, i thought to myself, HMM..why not go back to the venue and see if there are MORE cosplayers? shhesshh....what a dissapointment it was....MAYBE it was because the cosplay competition was on the 2nd day.....

so far, i think the only HUGE event msia have is Comic Fiesta and GACC....

ANYWAY, shall update more often now ya..XD....
(i have to familiarize myself with the interface here first though....*0*)

Unwanted Memories in Langkawi

2008-05-29T13:43:00.004+08:00

Well, i think i have mentioned before i am going to Langkawi Island for a trip with buddies before, haven't i? I was there between 15 to 17 May actually, which was kinda fun actually, since it was supposed to be relaxing and fun with my friends. All was good until we found out the true character of our friend's friend, whom he brought along, brought some unwanted memories to us as well. Well, i wouldn't call that human as friend, only more like a new acquaintance.

Ya know what he did? Well, lemme rant abit here. That human, ok, is a male. Well, i just dunno why, i just don't like the way he carries himself. He seemed fine at first when all of us first met him, when our friend introduced him to us. However, no matter how polite or innocent he acted at that time, i just dislike the aura he has. Well, now i know why, i thought i was oversensitive, until i discovered his not-so-pleasant side when my girlfriend stood up after a while after sitting next to him at the beach, when we kinda laid on the seashore and let the waves washed us. I was curious of the reason she stood at that time, but kept quiet since i thought i was over-sensitive, until she told she was uncomfortable sitting next to him as he intentionally got too near to her when i asked her =.=

Secondly, the incident which happened the second night we spent in the hotel. That human went to the girls' room. Well, our rooms are connected, girls and boys side by side. He went there while all of us were playing pillow fight, saying it was too noisy here and wanted to go to our room to eat his instant noodles. Ok, that was ok of course, to let him rest in our room. However, until all of us decided to sleep, and found that he laying on our bed, that was ok too but until we kept nudging and calling him to wake up, he just wouldn't bugde abit! Didn't even respond when we pulled him from the bed and he fell straight upon the floor! We thought he had some problems at first, maybe knock-out or something, but he did respond a little when one of my girlfriends poked his waist! Until another girlfriend of mine got mad and impatient at his behaviour, she actually about to hit him on his face while shouting at him to wake him up, he then got up slowly, rubbing his eyes, and claimed that he was dizzy. I mean what is this?! He actually worried us, not to forget, made us mad! It was no joke at all, playing these kinda games, so we kinda acted ignorant to him a little after that incident.

Lastly, the most drastic action he has done was...acting completely like a perverted idiotic freak!! He actually walked around to the girls' room without his pants on!! *faints due to anger* I really regretted not taking a knife to threaten him to put on his pants, but pretended to sleep to not notice it instead!! ARGH!!! I really regretted not to at least told him off, since i saw all of friends are like so calm, so i did nothing... well, since my friends told me not to cause guilt in our friend who brought that freak along, since that friend was already feeling guilty since the second incident. However, i really think i should said these when he actually has the guts to chat with me in the train during our journey home:

"Do you know the definition of a pervert? Well, to me, a pervert is a sicko who ran around without his pants on. It's no joke at all, when i see a pervert, i'll have a dagger in my hands and his manhood would definitely be in danger..."

GAH!! It's too late now!! I can never express my anger anymore, but that's ok, since we won't be seeing that freak anymore. Sigh.. our friend who brought that freak along is actually still kinda blame himself at times, though we have comforted him several times it was not his fault, since he himself doesn't know that freak well too. Ahhh~ no point to dwell on it since it's already over~

Haha, and that was Maia's ranting session about her Langkawi trip ^^

That time of summer

2008-05-23T23:46:00.004+08:00

People in the US would be lounging about now.
Here i am.
Studying for finals.
How bummed out can that be?

David Archuleta didnt win.
x2 bummed out.
People cease to recognize a great voice these days with the influx of screaming bands like Linkin Park. Im actually amazed someone can scream that long in one song. Kudos!
Actually Cook isnt that bad. he's just not that great either in my opinion.
only good for rock.

Can we please go out one day? =(
after my finals hopefully.
I end on 20th June~
Btw, I've been thinking of new songs for us to try out =D

-Aki

ps: should I get a formal grading for my bass playing? =0 i worry about the improvisation part...in 90 seconds! omg. I need time to improvise, not on the spot. >_< It'll be from RockSchool. The jazz pianist i told some of you about said formal education helps.

Fooled...

2008-05-12T00:12:00.004+08:00

...i mean, i was BEING FOOLED!! T_T

It was a usual night for my sis and I, facing both of our desktop and laptop, 12 smtg in the morning. And i got hungry, as usual, went to hunt for supper at the kitchen. I headed straight to the cabinet first to fetch a bowl for my cereals when my sis entered at the same time, who went out again outside then came in again when i fetched the milk from the freezy fridge. When i turned around to the table where i remember the box of KOKO Crunch Cereals was kept, it was not there!! And so i asked moi sis...

"Where's the cornflakes?!" in astonished voice cuz i really did saw it was still there in the morning.
"Don't know." she shrugged.
"Where's the cornflakes!? It can't be finished!! It was still heavy when i hold its box today!"
"I don't know, really!"
"OHHH, I'm cranky without my cornflakes!!" i jumped around... well kinda...
"Geez, how should i know?" she replied with shrug, then headed to the cabinet and handed me Rocky sticks. "How bout chomping these? There are nice."
"I don't want that....OH! wait..."

And so, with no cornflakes could be found in the house and i was craving for it, an idea popped up in my head where... i took over the Rocky sticks and CUT them into tiny pieces, mix them with milk, to replace my missing Koko Krunch and this was when my sis telling me...

"Hey, when you come out from the kitchen, look at the dining chair ok? I've got something funny to show you." and she left.

So... stupid me who still didn't suspect anything, i came out and was wondering what funny thing is there to show me... i was still looking at the other dining chair and was still figuring out...'' AND I SAW MY KOKO KRUNCH LAYING ON THE DINING CHAIR AT THE OTHER CORNER!!!! ARRRGHHHHHH!!!!!!

Guess how mad was i!? My sis saw my explosion and quickly ran to the sleeping quarters (well, where all our bedrooms are located together behind a door) and locked the door to hid herself from me!! Her laughter could be heard even when the door was closed!! Gosh, i was so mad and found that it was farnee in the same time, i went grumbling and laughing at the same time! and that was so not good to my laughing box...''

And when she finally came out, i forced her to eat the bowl of weird cereals... Rocky Strawberry Sticks+Fresh Milk while i ate my Koko Krunch... finally!! Grrrrr.... >=(

Late...Resolutions for Year 2008

2008-05-06T23:30:00.007+08:00

1. Cut down a few pounds... 15 pounds please... *prays hard*
2. Healthy Diet (Sounds terribly impossible in a country like Malaysia...T_T but i must try!!)
3. Normal sleeping schedules... please (My eyebags are getting more and more terrible...!! Gotta...do...something... No...more...like...an...owl...><)
4. Pick up drum lessons (Oh lord.. i think i've been talking about this for like... ages...!!! *slaps forehead)
5. Drive steadily and sensibly(Gotta buck up my driving skills!!)
6. Take daily supplements everyday (...i'll try...not to forget my Gingko...)
7. A even blonde BLONDE (Platinum Blonde, please and thank you!!)
8. Wonderful Year End Trip with Buddies
9. Exercise more (...when did i even think this is possible...)
10. Skipping Classes... NO MORE!!!! (no more skipping classes and sleep in library, or procrastinate in bed before class...!! ><)
11. Remember to write in diary
12. Healthier skin care and body care (yes... i neglected both my skin and body last year...)
13. Keep up the good, positive mood (that means no more unnecessary, senseless negative thoughts and mood swings... if i can help it)
14. Always be diplomatic (Yes, Maia, that means no more sudden reckless eruption of anger towards others, even if there are some who are really brainless or maybe ridiculous which really deserves some spanking...)
15. Improve penmanship (...i hate my current handwriting...=_=)
16. Read more good books (...does manga count...? *wonders off*)
17. Set an Art Booth at CF08 (if i've got the time and determination...)
18. Lastly... Keep the resolutions above...GOING ON!!

And that was resolutions (late!) of Maia for Year 2008...

Ciao, Natsu

Jrock Kingdom IV

2008-04-26T23:19:00.002+08:00

Hi there peeps,

Just wanted to inform ya if you dont know yet, there's gonna be a jrock kingdom gig thingy at ruums. you can check it out at www.jrock-kingdom.com

their poster looks...erm....nice. I think. I dont really like that look, so stereotypical, but heck. All bands performing should be locals. I'd give anything to see a real live Japanese vkei group here *__*
well, if anyone wants to go, just tell me. I'm interested in seeing how good are they (or how bad), but I dont wanna go alone. =(
their forum is a bit of a laugh tho. but i like their site.

yeah yeah...im evil. hahaha.....

A big Break for Bands like US! ^_^

2008-04-18T23:18:00.003+08:00

Just so u know, some event is gonna be held in Penang for malaysian bands which play jrock music and such.

So if we do take off, this is one place where our audience wont be wondering what sorta songs we're playing.

http://i149.photobucket.com/albums/s57/january_snowdrops/done.png

it's quite far, being in penang and all....but it'll be like some real tour for us. heheheh...u know..packing all our stuff, instruments, sleeping on a bus together...yeah.

And i still say we need a bassist. =.= i really cant do bass and vocals together. heck, i cant even type and talk at the same time!

Craze in Scheduling Tools, Diaries and Stationeries

2008-04-17T16:33:00.003+08:00

Yosh minna, remember about my last post about writing diaries? Hah, i guess it had got me to get addicted in owning scheduling tools and stuffs related to writing. Well, it all begins when i start writing diary occasionally because i fret to forget important stuffs, but now it seems it has led me to get such a weird obsession too ^^'' part of the cause of it was also because of my friends' lecture towards my carelessness and forgetfulness (cuz they were also my chiefs for the book publishing project), since i always forget to do this and that, forget to follow-up, forget what to ask, forget what's the next step, and my worst habit of not writing them down since i'm forgetful etc etc RAWR!!!!! therefore one day, i began writing diary and scheduling... but ya know, i'm quite picky at times. I've been writing diary in my laptop all these while until i found a diary book that i LIKE and bought it finally... Phew, i think it took almost a month until i found a diary book i like and began writing in it now... See how picky i am? And i haven't got my Scheduling book too, odear *rushes for schedulers hunt*

Hahahaha, i really dunno what to write so i wrote about this, my recent craze, sorry if it's boring xD

Summer's here. I mean the weather =X

2008-03-30T00:06:00.003+08:00

Ah....summer. the time of lemonades like what maia said, lazing around (if only we had summer hol), washing cars under the hot sun, and perspiring in our homes. gawd.

For those who have my msn, which is everyone of Solstice, you'll most prolly notice my Kyuuketsuki level. Which means my Vampiric level. Sounds odd? yeah. I know. But I cant help it!

I was washing my car with my friend under the sun one early summer's day, when I drenched myself, well anywhere that wasnt covered with cloth, with water to cool off. that's when i notice i had patches of red spots on my skin. I forgot I was allergic to sunlight =.=

I look like i've been bitten by a horde of flesh eating....somethings. T.T

I hate summer.

Heck, i hate the sun.

Why cant university classes be conducted at night! *grumble*

btw maia, I'm as forgetful as you ... i just dont know why! one such instance would be:

Me: Hey, i wanna tell you something! =D
My friend: What is it?
Me: ....i forgot...
My friend: ....well,...tell me when u remember.
Me: Oh wait! i remember now!
My friend: what is it?
Me: ......i forgot again...

Summer's Worry: Memory Problem

2008-03-22T17:49:00.007+08:00

My memory is getting weaker lately, i wonder why...? It's like when i wanna do a simple thing, i'll forget it in a second. For instance, i wanted to search for a word at first, then when some other words attracted my attention to know them, i'll forget which word i intended to search at first and i gotta recall for quite some time. Same goes for ideas, the idea just emerged in my mind and the next sec (not even min!) it's gone... Or when i was talking with my fren, and when someone just interrupted for few secs (again... not mins) i totally have no idea whatever i was talking seconds ago!! Well, it seems normal for everyone, but i think mine's getting worse. Even for games, when i won a battle, i saw what battle items i got at first, the next sec i forgot when i open my inventory list!! *slaps forehead*

So there was one day, i think... *goes check the few pages written diary* ah, 17 mac 2008! I've decided to start writing diary due to fret of forgetting important stuffs! Well, we never what might happen in life, do we? Well, i'm not gonna write in diary everyday when there aren't any interesting stuffs to write about, but i'll write down important feelings instantly right before it disappears! I think it's rather important to write down important feelings and ideas, so when i get older and when my memory gets weaker next time or maybe when i get amnesia (LOL!! I actually thought of this one too!), i can refer to it or them! (God knows how many diaries i'm gonna have) Hmm.. maybe i gotta go take some gingko too later hah! (Good gracious! I sound so old now) Well, that's about it! Just wanna share my recent feelings with you! Take care darls!

Cool lemonade for anyone in hot Summer?

Chinese Valentine=Chap Goh Meh

2008-03-01T16:36:00.003+08:00

I went with some friends to the PJ Lake to throw fruits for Chap Goh Meh/mei night. It was a rather rushed decision, because I was too lazy and i didnt want to throw my oranges that i drew such nice faces on. =P but I called up some friends anyway. The first thing I made sure was that at least SOMEONE brought oranges. real oranges. last year, the person who was supposed to bring oranges brought lemons, apples and bananas because he realized last minute he didnt have any oranges....

We finally got there ten minutes before midnight and started frantically drawing/writing on our oranges in the dim lighting by the lake amid the noise and crowds. Going near to the lake edge, the gang decided I should be the first to throw. All right! i got my space....stepped up....and flung it as far as i could to the middle of the lake. no one was gonna get my orange since i wanted it float to japan. LOL. It flew alright.....along with one of my bracelets from my wrist. =.= I wondered why was there a 2nd sploosh near my feet...when i noticed my hand was lighter by one pure black onyx bracelet. T__T It's still there....somewhere near the side of the lake. People with the scooper thingy helped me poke around by they couldnt find anything. -_-
oh well.
And another friend of mine who couldnt come along asked me to write for her lots of stuff on an orange and throw for her...I said, 'would you like me to throw a watermelon? more writing surface!'
I strongly recommend that guys should throw oranges. unless you want to be the one to jump into the lake. but i think the would be suitors have upgraded from actually jumping in (last year) to using extra long sticks (this year) to poke around for oranges. LOL
Then we went to A&W to eat and play cards. Jaejoong's picture was the King of Hearts. XD the rest was in the royal family as well. My friend got this pack of cards from YG magazine with all sorts of artiste pictures on them. I wanted to kidnap it...but heck. she'd murder me.

btw...someone actually got my orange. OMFG. they called. I quickly hung up. +__+

Mission Impossible: Plugs Search on Valentine

2008-02-26T21:27:00.007+08:00

Well, i've always wanted to post this story, but due to constant laziness, i'm terribly LATE!! Hahaha, never mind, just wanna share what happened on Valentine with my two crazy friends. Valentine's Day=Lovey-dovey mushy-mushy day to all couples in love but to the three of us that day, Valentine=Rush Hour+Mission Impossible! Lotsa couples were seen in Midvalley that day, which we went, not for hi-tea, not for movie, no holiday activities for us nor some laid-back time, but to finish the editing the contents of pages for our society's book to be published! Phew, after so many weeks, there are still so much to be done, it's really not easy to create a book huh. We went to sit at the corner of KFC to maintain low profile, bought some food [in case those workers come fuss around we can still defend ourselves by showing them the food] and began working at the laptops there from 12pm to 3pm i think. Well, maybe there were lotsa customers on Valentine that day, the workers were rather busy collecting dirty dishes and cleaning instead of chasing us away, which will NOT happen cuz i'll tell them KFC's under my father's company anyway [you do know this is a joke, do you? XD they're just plain lazy they won't bother us afterall]

And why do i even mention Valentine=Rush Hour+Mission Impossible?

It all happens when we've finally gonna complete editing the book's stuffs, the laptop which have all the crucial stuffs compiled encountered LOW BATTERY!!! We were panicked of course, and felt stupid too not backing up the stuffs in each other's laptops! And so we rushed out of KFC trying to search for a place where we can recharge the laptop's battery cuz we must have the book's dummy printed out that day! We searched everywhere in the mall and were so desperate that we almost wanna use the plug on the pillars or the walls of the shops, where lotsa people were sitting and walking around! We wanted to use the plug on the wall outside Osim's shop, so one of my friend went to ask for permission, but the salesgirl there wasn't sure if we are allowed to use so we ended up not using it afterall [and i kept asking them not to use too cuz... it'll be WEIRD when people walking around will be looking at us like WTH?!] but the salesgirl was kind enough to tell us there are plugs in the toilets we can use, which also reminded me of something, the first thing that has plugs came in my mind was the NURSERY ROOM!!! So both of them followed me to one of the nursery rooms in Jusco's toilet since i am so familiar with the MV's directions that i can be a mall guide there!! XDXD But i haven;t use the nursery room before, so i can't assure if the security guard or the janitor there will chase us out or not if she ever finds out we ain using the room for proper purposes.. don't think of weird stuffs... that we ain nursing babies!! And i was resting on the couch there, watching both my friends editing the book in a hurry as well as worrying if the janitor ever finds out (which i think it's really nothing to be worried about cuz she wasn't really paying attention to the nursery rooms afterall) so seeing them so worried (it's cute) I hummed the classical Mission Impossible theme song and they kept hushing me tyo keep quiet as well as glaring at me. What we didn't expect is: A couple with a baby really wanted to use our room and they stopped right in front!! Just before they enter, my friend pulled the curtain of the room's entrance, well, shook it a little, to indicate there ARE people in there!! Phew, fortunately the couple understood the signal and walked off! Heck, i really couldn't imagine what will happen if they ever pull the curtain open and see us...gosh, that's gonna really HILARIOUS!!! I can already imagine the scene below:

Parent (papa or mama, either one): Huh?

3 of us: O.O

Parents with faces like: What are these people doing in here? I don't see they have a baby...

And the atmosphere will be like...Cold Wind blew by??

Anyway, that was the adventure on my Valentine's Day 2008! Hahahaha, the mission accomplished too that day, since we were able to print out the dummy, but we ended up reprint it since the quality printed by the shops there ain so good...

Shine in Summer, dudes!!

MAGe in Nilai College (26th of JAn)

2008-01-29T03:04:00.000+08:00

Heyoo...hito_yuki here....XD XD (yeap..decided to call me that..yuki alone sounds too err....girly?
haha..anyway~~
imma here to talk about the very first event that happened in malaysia, MAGe in Nilai....
yeap....me and my friend travelled about 2 hours to that place by KTM (and i was carrying my tripod and katana with me.....Ugh..the heaviness...~~)

AHem..well, personally, i would say the event was DEAD BORING......the only reason you guys see good comments about the event was because ALL THOSE PEOPLE TOOK PART IN THEIR COMPETITION...thus, they have something to look forward to. I have to say, i really really regretted wasting my RM6.90 to travel all the way there and another RM6.90 travelling back from that place.

Thank god my good friend relyss was there with me....and we had our own photoshoot there. (YAY FOR THE TRIPOD!! XD)
yeap, it was a 2 person photoshoot, no photographer at all.......so we were like crazy people, wearing 3 layers of clothing (minus my binding and bra mind you ) under malaysia's wonderful 'panas dan lembap' weather...
(FYI, we were cosplaying Vampire Knight characters, me as Takuma Ichijou and relyss as Kaname Kuran)
the entire photoshooting was fun, never thought a 2 person photoshoot could be so fun...haha...

After that, back to the event....well, after our camera batteries ran out, we were like, hanging around in the changing room most of the time (because the changing room was empty....but with air cond and chairs--WTH!? AN EVENT BUT THE CHANGING ROOM IS EMPTY?!?!)
well, that explains how many cosplayers turned up for the event...i think only a mere 15 cosplayers, if not less, turned up. Besides that, OMG, the food is OVERPRICED THERe......
green tea = RM3 for 1 bottle?!?!? WTFOMGBBQ!?!!?? crap...go rob a bank la better....!!!

Well, there was another tortourous 'thing' that bugged me the entire journey there and back, but i think i'll skip that.
ANYWAY, the only pictures that were in my camera were from the photoshoot we had, so i don't think it's necessary to post it up eh? XD (for event pictures you guys can go look at the forum..DUH..XD XD)

the only event i'm looking forward to is GACC now.....*sighs*
all in all, the only thing i enjoyed there was the photoshoot with relyss.....
Cis...wasted my RM20.....use it for karaoke also better......SHEESH......

winter_solstice aka hito_yuki *peace out*

KON'YA WA BOOGIE BACK

2008-01-21T09:18:00.000+08:00

hahahaha!!!! i came across an old japanese hip hop song, the song which is said to have lead to the birth of Hip Hop music in Japan, Konya wa Boogie Back! A collaboration of a Hip Hop band called Scha Dara Parr and Kenji Ozawa *fer your info, these guys have been quite a while in the music industry since or maybe even before we were born, so i dunno them actually* but how'd i came across this song since i dunno 'em? Hahaha, simple! I was actually searching for Hikki's videos and stuffs related to her and i always saw this video clipy, so for once and fer all, i loaded and watched... or rather listened to it!! Boy oh boy, this song sounds old but HOT!! *to me la* i nuv the beats in it! and Hikki sounds so funky in it, i love it!! I think i saw another guy did cover fer this song as well... his name's Sakurai Sho... and again i dunno him... but i think i like Hikki's one more, she actually performed with the band who released this song, Scha Dara Parr. Seriously, not because i like her alot, but her voice really suits the song well! XDDD Ah well, just wanna share with you guys my latest fav that's all XDDDDD i can listen to it for six times or more in a row!! and i was thinking if we may perform this song too!!!

Here's the link, if you're interested XDD
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxAXU17die4

p/s: the video isn't related to the song, the creator merely just combined Hikki's MV for it. I want only a song clip, but too bad i can't find it hah ^^

UH! UH! Boogie Back! Hey yooo~~

SOLSTICE's FIRST OUTING

2008-01-12T22:35:00.000+08:00

Venue: Green Box, Sg. Wang
Date: 4th January 2008
Time: 2pm to 5pm
Activities: Window-shopping, sing karaoke, wander around, jump around, dance para para paradise, hit some drums, and most importantly... Crazey-ing *ok, that was plain random and it wasn't even funny... my my, is it me, or the wind is terribly cold today...*

Sibby reached the Sg Wang mall first, then followed by me, who arrived there by 1 something... i think... and so, both of us wandered around the maze-like mall (well, to me it is, i'm an idiot to directions) hmmm.... oops, we didn't wander around the mall, but in SunComic Anime Store on the IT floor. We went in there.... and Sib was showing me around excitedly to the anime CDs, asking me if i have watch this and that XDDD and then we went to look at some posters since Sib wanna get some for her plain wall in her room... righto, over wiv these not-so-fascinating stuffs... and so, Hakkuryuu later called Sib saying she's reaching when we were looking at some posters, which worn out our legs (well.. mine since i'm bloody heavy XD) since we havta squat down in order to browse the pile of dusty posters on the floor. Sib and I then waited outside for Hakku... and minutes later, there she is! Our fine vocalist~ *the voice oso sweeter* and after somekinda 2nd brief self introduction *sumthing liddat* the three of us went to Green Box. Minutes later, Hito arrived and we went in together. And... the crazey-ing activity begins, where we were ordering songs non-stop til the list was like full fer few times and sang like crazey~ lotsa songs were sung... but i can remember the two songs that we have sang very emo-ly: I don't wanna miss a thing & Tonight by TVXQ. Sib and Hakku were like so into it when singing the last song, Tonight XD and then after singing K, we then went to Timesquare, where Hakku and Sib led Hito and i to the Arcade Centre... to play the dance machines... and Hito was right when Sib and Hakku was playing Para Para Paradise, she told me if both of us noobs were to play that thingy... we'll be like hitting flies... ^^'' so hito and i went to hit some drums instead (ya know, the Japanese drums thingy) ah yes, the Taiko Drums... and i sux at it... FAIL!!! T__T and later stuffs are we went wandering around and window-shopping at anime stuffs? hmmm, i was rushing home that time so i don't know... hahahaa

Well, anyway, it was really fun to get to meet all of the band members finally, we were planning the outing for like months ago and we made it at last!! Really looking forward to the next outing! In other words, preserve your sot-sotness til next time! Tata~

And the (lousy) report was presented by Natsu aka Maia, zeh Summer Solstice...

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Yohoho! Hakky here!~
Well....i was a tad bit late for the meeting, not to mention i got lost in Sg Wang (as usual), ending up at this really weird floor without any shops but a food court....
The PumpItUp machine in Sg Wang is now some remix thing! so not fun anymore. Michi & Sib & Hito MUST PLAY WITH ME the next round! I mean...play the machine with me...i mean, play the game...oh heck.
This was the 2nd time I have ever went karaoke-ing. I must say it was much better than the first. Free flow drinks are always good. Even if i dont sing, i just wanna eat! *_*
Eh i still say michi has a much nicer voice. =_= my goodness! the emo looks so flat faced here! cute~
When's the next outing anyway? I wanna start throwing hito and michi into the PPP machine. *cue evil laugh*
