ごめんなさい!!!!

... I don't really know who I am apologising to actually but again, I'm sorry. I know, Comic Fiesta 2009 was last week but there seems to be no update on my blog about the event or about what I splurged on.

I have been... uh... busy! Yeah, that's it. I've been busy.
But it's not like any of you care, right? I'm not even sure if I have any readers or something, not that I mind. Or that if you're even anime fans or something...

A~nyways, I would most definitely write about it tomorrow (or on Sunday)... well, before I go back to my dorm that is. Which is next week. FML.

Yesterday's Class...

Well, it was not bad actually. But my body ached all over this morning and I have a hunch that it has something to do with yesterday's class. Neways, the instructor thought that I have experience driving before and I can assure you that I have none.

And it was proven when the car died god-knows-how many times when I was balancing the oil and the clutch on the hill. I am fearing our next lesson (don't know if it's today) now mostly cause he said we're gonna do parking next. And practice more of the balancing thing to get me used to it.

Now, let's put that matter aside and celebrate!!

Why?

Cause I've reached 1000+ pageviews!!!!!

Though yes, the count is for everytime you visit my blog (reading past entries counted as well). I wanted to change it to different ISP but then I have to start from 0 again and I don't like 0s... They remind me of Lulu and I'll get sad. *tears*

Anyways, thanks you guys for helping me reach 1000+ pageviews!!!! *throws confetti*




EDIT: I've decided to attach this totally adorable 8-bit version of Sheryl Nome's "Universal Bunny"! Enjoy!!:

A kind soul uploaded Sound Horizon's "Triumph of Territorial Expansion III" Concert over at Youtube and if s/he is in front of me now, I would have absolutely french him/her, despite being straight.
... I hope Youtube won't take the videos down until a rip of the DVD comes out. What? I know it's wrong but as a student, I can't afford to pay RM400+ for two dvds (without tax methinks) no matter how awesome it is!!!!

From the trailer that I posted in my earlier entries, it was most definitely EARGASM!!!! Throughout the whole concert, I was gaping at how wonderful the whole concert was. Most if not all of my songs were performed!!!! Plus, Kyouko-san looks soo pretty and graceful, even when she's grinding on her violin!!
Man, I'd do anything to attend that concert... no, I'd do anything to be able to watch this one a widescreen TV alone!!

Not gonna post my favourite songs since I like them all so I'll just post my favourite song of all time, Hiiro no Fuusha:



Why I love this song soo much? It's because of KAORI's powerful vocals, Kyouko-san awesome violin skills... everything!! Oh, not to forget Revo-heika and Jimang~
Somehow, I think YUUKI gained weight. She looked... bigger compared to the previous concerts. I wonder if they had to alter her Layla and Hortensia costumes considering how tight it was.

Mari Endou (girl in teal/blue) is not part of the original trio singing this song. The trio that sings this song is the young/cool voices (from Moira - the singing muses). I know, I know, you might be kinda confused by now. I'll post one of Moira songs that they performed after I post the mature/warm voices of Hiiro no Fuusha:



It gets awhile for me to get used to it since I'm accustomed to KAORI's voice (heck, this song is on loop on my mp4) but after awhile, I'm hooked onto this version too. It has a far more mature sound compared to the other one. REMI (girl in black dress) is part of the original trio singing this song.

By the way, MIKI, you are soo totally awesome. Your 'moulin rouge' at the end made the hair at the back of my neck stand! I could never reach that note, no matter how many times I sing this song (in the showers of course X3).

And here is a song that properly illustrate the concept of the singing muses thingy... uh... I'll stop now:



All I can say is that I want my man to have a voice like Akio Ohtsuka. I don't care if he has an average face but he needs to have a voice like Akio Ohtsuka, damnit!!!!
... I know, I know. Just my wistful thinking.

And somehow, I feel like I used that word wrong. Maybe that's why I got a C for my Professional Writing Class. Yes, I'm still butthurt about that matter even if I didn't rant about it here. And yes yet again, I'm gonna ask them to re-mark my paper as well as re-check my assignments. I have a feeling that my lecturer lost our assignments since my class (made up of people with Band 5~3) got lower (aka no A) than the class made up of people with Band 3~1... one of them got a fricking A!! Not that I'm being mean to them. They deserve it seeing how hard they studied.

Anyways, back on topic. Kyouko-san sorta looked at the camera in the song!! *fangirls* She's soo pretty and talented~
Oh and I think REMI matured vocally. She sounds deeper here compared to the previous lives of this song.

... while I'm at it, this is the song that led me to Sound Horizon:


Haruka sounds soo true to the original... if not even better!! She is truly amazing~ She could compose song, write lyrics and sing!! I wanna be like her~

Next song would have to be Jimang's song!! I had to post this considering how much flair an old geezer like him has compared to Revo-heika. Sorry, Revo-heika. Jimang pwns you when it comes to flair on stage:



... it's Jimang. 'nuff said. He's the voice behind Umineko no Naku Koro ni's ending theme (anime) for those who are curious. I think he has other songs outside Sound Horizon too but I'm only interested in him when he's with the band.

However, one minus point about the song is Ike Nelson's totally weak 'Roman'. What happened to his deep voice?! The weakness of it snapped me out of the trance Jimang's performance got me into.

Finally, the last song that I'll post is one of the new songs performed at the concert:


Do ignore the big-ass lyrics on the video.

Anyways, I think this song might be on their upcoming Maxi Single... that is if they're making one. And I'm beginning to see a pattern here. Their previous Maxi Single is about Iberia or in other words, the Reconquista. And now the next one might be about the Conquistadores... judging by the song. Boss is gonna be soo happy considering the focus he's getting from Sound Horizon. XD

All and all, I hope that their next album would be something Elysion and Roman-esque instead of Moira-esque. I want a collection of several different stories in one album instead of just one story. Also, I want Mari and Haruka to join the band officially so that I could start writing their names in caps.

Enough about the concert now...
Some of you who are hardcore anime/j-pop/game fans might say that YUUKI or KAORI might say that they look or sound familiar. That is because YUUKI was from a group named SpringS along with Aya Hirano and some other girl. I've never heard any of their songs though...

And KAORI is part of Yuki Kajiura's FictionJunction team. She's FictionJunction Kaori. Though she's not as famous as FictionJunction Yuuka. Neways, I'm gonna leave you guys with my favourite song from Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle:



If you're wondering about wedding pics, check my Facebook page. I'm sure someone from my family might have uploaded it by now.

Whew, what a long post!

Johnnie Fedora met Alice Bluebonnet~

I bet you're wondering about the title, right? Right????

Well, if you're not, boo to you!
But if you are~:




I remember watching this when I was a kid and fell in love with it. Kept on rewinding the VCR just to watch this part.
... I think I might have even cried since I pity Johnnie soo much. All the hardships that he had to go through for the sake of his loved one!

But until today, I still wonder how Alice Bluebonnet ended up where she was. Did her owner got tired of her and gave her away?
*shrugs*
A mystery I'll never solve.

Oh, I went shopping with my mum today. The last time I did that was... um... last month, methinks. I dunno, I'm not really the shopping kinda girl.
... except when it comes to stationaries. I'll admit that I get weak in the knees when I go into the stationaries section.


Yes, I'll admit that I'm addicted to Starbucks. Sure, some would cry out in rage since Starbucks is owned by the Jews. Not my fault that Coffee Bean is not as awesome as Starbucks. Though I have no idea who owns Coffee Bean. Might be Jews too... they control the economy.

Anyways~
It seems like Midvalley is running kinda low on budget for their decorations this year. First the scribbly (yes, I know it's Lat-ish. But still...!) and now, this...
I prefer their decorations for Christmas last year compared to this year. It somehow seemed half-assed. Though I love the abundance of christmas trees!!

The true reason why I went shopping today. I was in desperate need of new dinner shoes (my old pair died on me) since my cousin's wedding is on Saturday... and I don't have nice shoes for dinners. I'm not really a high and dainty heels kinda girl. More of a sneakers/slip-ons/boots/casual wedges kinda girl (in no particular order). No slippers for me too... unless if I don't feel like dressing up that day.

Ooh~
I now know what my friends and future boyfriend (if I get one... man, now I sound desperate. XD) could give me for my birthday or any special occasions.

Something(anything! Even a card would suffice)+Chocolate from Patchi!!


Doesn't it look divine?

And yes, I'm gonna suck them dry! Suuuuuuuck them dryyyyyyyyyy!!!!!
Just kidding... I'm not really like that. Usually I'm the one who belanja my friends instead of the other way round cause I would often feel guilty whenever they belanja me.

Anyways, my family is kinda worried that I'll never get a boyfriend or get married. Cause they say my demands and high taste in things might scare potential partners away.
What? There's nothing wrong with asking a car, a house (both under my name, of course) and a Radley bag as part of my hantaran, right?

Myuuu-haaaa!!

... please ignore the title above. I didn't want to leave it blank yet I have no idea what to write there so... yeah.

A~nyways, the reason why I wrote this is because I want to share a little picture with you guys that my corrupted-beyond-repair mind thought was wrong beyond soo many levels. I warn you yet again, the picture might seem totally innocent to you but to me, it seems wrong. Why? Cause as I mentioned earlier, my mind is corrupted beyond repair. I blame Seng Wai and Amir (Form 2, main corrupter) as well as Nabihah (Asasi, main corrupter).

Ack, sidetracked yet again. Before I go off on a tangent yet again, here is said picture:

Please tell me I'm not the only one who thinks this picture looks wrong?

Btw, it's taken at the topmost floor of Cineleisure (near the bowling alley) on... uh... last Saturday, if I'm not mistaken. Wait, that should be right since that's the last time I went there.

Now, an adorable song to get your mind off the pedobear approved picture!! And also to celebrate the upcoming Christmas. I feel that I should post this during Christmas but some people said that wishing other people a Merry Christmas (or have a nice day during Christmas) was... makruh? (@.@)
Before I got off topic yet again, here's the song~:

... yeah, that's one scary Santa. Believe me, I freaked out when I first saw him. Anyways, the song is Santa Claus is Coming to Town.
What's soo adorable about the song, you might ask? Well, it's the fact that the singers are the Axis Powers (aka N.Italy, Germany and Japan) from Hetalia~!!
But honestly, Italy... WTF?! Tomato cake? Pasta cake?!?!

What is this Hetalia that you've seen me spam endlessly in some of my posts? Well, in short, it is an anime fangirl's dream come true. Heck, I think it is every anime fangirl dream come true. Imagine this!
Men in uniforms, hawt and manly (ok, maybe not for some) voices, humour, satire, angst, history (... ok, maybe not this), chibis, hawt men, cute men, sexual innuendos, erogenous zones, tsundere, yandere, endless pairing possibilities and subtle (or maybe not) shounen-ai hints. Which fangirl wouldn't want that!!!! Ok, maybe some doesn't like the shounen-ai aspect but it is easily ignored... I think.

Hyuu~ Ita-chan is sooo cute~
