back from unintended hiatus
Long entry.
「►」 Wow ok, so I -really- didn't expect to disappear for an entire month. I've had a tough time dealing with RL and a lot has happened, one of the biggest being me not being about to go on exchange in 2008. It's a big disappointment but a choice I made with my counselor cause I understand that I'm probably not in the best condition to be thrown into something as stressful as that in my current condition. I'm having a fresh start next year, redoing my 2nd uni year since I failed very badly this year with depression weighing me down. But I made the decision on the fact that it would not affect my chances of receiving the scholarship to participate in exchange in 2009. So in all technicality, I AM still going to Japan on exchange, but in 2009 instead of 2008, that's all. I'm sorry if I've caused anyone to worry especially all my flist who know me in RL. I also assure you that I'm receiving the help I need and on the way to mending.
「►」 Ok, now with all the serious stuff out of the way. I am still going on the family trip to China & Japan and that's about 7 weeks away. My anticipation is gonna heighten the closer we get to that day. Because we're leaving on Christmas day all the Christmas countdowns will have double meaning for me. I'm very excited, it'll be my first time in Japan. Every thing's booked, visas for China are ready to be picked up next week, travel insurance will be booked tonight. I'm now starting to build up an info notebook with random lists of stuff we need to buy, places we want to see and phrases that will help us get around. xD Me and Fiona are really bad when we're together and even here we forget stuff like wallet and keys and such so we need constant reminders. Well I will definitely keep posting about how that goes.
「►」 Well as far as fandom goes, I don't want to regurgitate a months worth of fandom stuff out since it's pretty old news now. I've been ignoring a lot of the Ryo birthday posts in the comms and well I don't really want to join but I did make a graphic yesterday when I was making a header for my cousin, so I may as well post it. Plain and simple graphic.
錦戸亮 ２３歳 お誕生日おめでとう～
「►」 All the weeeek promos have been so gorgeously cute. I can watch them spazz around the stage I don't even know how many times. Ryo flitting around on Utaban, abusing Koyama, everyone's big smiles, Massu trying to wonder off... everything just somehow puts a gigantic grin on my face. Hey!Hey!Hey! next week and Music Fighter as well coming up. Can't wait. The album has sounded great so far (since we've heard pretty much the entire album xD), so many of the new songs I feel like I'm gonna love: Ai Nante, Ai no Matador, Kimi omofu yoru etc, not to mention Rainbow and Mafuyu no nagareboshi as well.
「►」 I'm halfway through listening to the November 1st Recommen. I love listening to JE radio shows but I never really sit down and do it. I have a lot saved but only a fraction listened to. To my surprise this Recommen is hosted by Hina and Toma! It's great to hear their camaraderie. They call Jin and Yoko who are on set for Yukan and that was cute. Yamapi and Ryo are gonna be guesting on next week's Recommen to promote weeeek and pacific. That should be really interesting. Has Ryo ever been on a K8 program to promote NEWS stuff before? I mean Ryo sings K8 songs at NEWS' concerts but has it ever happened the other way round? Well it should be interesting.
「►」 Random fandom points (cuz I'm getting lazy and this post is already really long):
{+} Hana Kimi DVD boxset is set to be released on the 9th of January. I might see what it has in it and might pick it up when I'm in Japan.
{+} I'm still meant to be in lockdown to save money but I gave in and ordered Kanjani8's 47 Concert DVD [LE] (omg FOUR disks!) and their tour photobook and KAT-TUN's concert DVD [LE]. As much as I want the Dokkiri in the K8 regular DVD, I just can't afford to get both. >.<;
{+} Maki on cartoon KAT-TUN was so cute and I can't wait for next weeks to see them do the cooking part. ^_^
{+} I've always said I'm easy, falling into groups and people so easily. Well I'm currently very interested in V6. They're just too cute. They're sempai but act every bit, if not more, dorky and adorable as their kouhai. Been watching old Gakkou e Ikkou/MAX eps. So much crack. xD
{+} Random fact that makes me smile: Ohkura reads CanCam cuz he just 'basically likes looking at kawaii girls'. xD Quoted from him on TFP.
「►」 My first year in the fandom actually came and went a couple of weeks ago. I was too depressed to do anything about it. I known I've been saying it alot but I -will- eventually get a new layout. >.<; Wow yeah, one year in the fandom. Kinda scary. Still feel like I'm really new to it. Yoroshiku onegaishimasu again this year na~
* Alrighty, I'll end it here, it's already gotten waaaay too long. Cookies and love to anyone who actually read this far. ♥
ETA: I just checked my archive and saw that I posted my first LJ post one year ago today. Haha another one year mark. /random
