- big girls need love too -

currently listening to - possession (JYONGRI)
mood - "i can't sleep"...

song of the month: Kiss Me
phrase of the month: i'm effing drunk
item of the month: 1,000 yen notes (and cardboard boxes which can fit 20kg's worth of goods?)

the song and phrase are dedicated to a friend who comes from a country that starts with "bru" and ends with "nei".

「一緒にヨーロッパに行こう」・・・
*translation: "Let's conquer Europe together."

no man, Chiaki. i'm not gonna conquer Europe with a person like you. i know you'd eliminate me once your dream's come true. i won't be tricked, you bastard.

*****

wouldn't it be fun if he really meant like that? (the actual translation: "Let's go to Europe together," proposed the self-righteous/insolent/pompous conductor-wannabe Chiaki Shinichi to his hentai girlfriend) i mean.. he can totally plot to conquer the whole of Europe by defeating the musicians over there, with his conducting/piano/violin skills....

so i finished watching Nodame Cantabile. the drama. for your information, this is my first time finishing an entire drama, without giving up halfway. no kidding. don't ask me why.

next thing to conquer: Basilisk. i'm not talking about that legendary monster from Europe (which appeared in the Chamber of Secrets?) ... it's an anime/manga about the sad battle between 2 ninja clans, Kouga and Iga (and thus the title Kouga Ninpouchou Basilisk.. or something like that). the japanese ninja movie Shinobi's based on this story, i think.. first saw the manga when i was in Singapore. an almost-otaku friend of mine was reading it, and my first impression of it was, "man, i see lots of black ink. it's so hard to read... and the ninja's so fat and ugly (referring to Jousuke).."

but i guess i can handle the anime. and i thought i should know more about Kouga and Iga (though Basilisk is entirely fictional...), coz apparently these 2 clans are the most (?) famous shinobi-mono during the Warring State Period. i'm also reading another ninja-related manga called Nabari no Ou (the Togakushi clan's mentioned in the story, and that's my japanese-culture sensei's hometown~), but the publication of the manga's freakkking slow... and speaking of manga related to ninja, there's also Naruto, of course. whoever who comments that Nabari's storyline's similar to Naruto's... i won't say things like "I'll kill you", but trust me, i'm pretty sure all 3 stories are QUITE different.

a few more days, and we'll be having our graduation party. it's a little depressing that by now, everyone else has received his/her notification from the next university. God must be having fun playing with me, picking me a univeristy that announces around mid March.

and it's even more depressing when some people refuse to turn up in the graduation party, which the organizers spent time and effort to prepare. man, it's "prom night" all over again. i remember us debating with some of the classmates who didn't want to go to the prom. one of them said, "okay, give me reasons why should i go". hey, it's the last night that we'll be spending time together! it's true, i left Singapore 2 days after the prom. i'm sorry that to you, classmates don't worth making memories with. but to me, despite the expensive and mazui (personal comment) 7-course meal at Swissotel, i still paid 4,000 yen (approximation) and went to the prom. and even gave everyone free *amateur* performance of Evanescence and John Mayer!!

to make my *probably* last moments with the others more worthwhile.

no offence, that was just my personal opinions. everybody has their own issues and way of thinking. in fact the "me" 3 years ago would've refused to go because of my parents. so i have no right to persuade a person who's really reluctant to go to the party, just because now i feel the need to do so.

okay, back to less intellectual stuff. i sadly announce that i'm not allergic to alcohol anymore. the first time i had an alcoholic drink, i had swollen toes. but a few days ago i succeeded in drinking Vodka and Tequila (around one shot each?), which has 40% alcohol in each of them. if i ever drink again, i'd prefer Tequila, with it's interesting way of drinking (lick the salt, drink the alcohol, and bite the lemon). vodka's too bitter for me. hey, i'm a person who can't stand coffee and bitter chocolate (tea and milk chocolate all the way, yo) ...

however, i must admit that drinking makes me suffocate a little. not a good experience.

*****

sorry for the random heading, folks. =p
