So it has been a while since I posted. But I'm still alive!

Also with all the shit going down in fandom I sometimes think there's enough people already commenting about it. I seriously doubt my take on it will contribute that much to it all.
Before the JunSu/Jejung/Yuchun news came out, I already had the distinct impression that the trio had renewed their contracts with AVEX (between the 5 of them, only JaeChunSu had activities in Japan after the announced 'pause' in THSK activities so that was an easy guess). Also the anti HoMin coloured twitts from Max helped strengthen that impression (not that he is a bad person in it all, I can imagine his frustration with the two when you're working so hard to keep THSK and lose it eventually because they are unwilling/unable to go against SM Ent.).
In the end I think it's just a matter of being patient and just grab whatever they can offer us. Be it solo, as a trio or a reunited group. I personally am very exited about Jaejoongs drama which will air tonight at TV Fuji. And hopefully have it subbed in a couple days so I can enjoy it as well. Maybe I can invite Maarten over to translate it for me, but I have this distinct feeling he will say no. Maybe I should offer beer. *contemplative*

Anyways... this was totally not the reason for posting but thought I should comment on the situation now that I'm posting anyway.

My purpose for this update is....


I fucking won BoA's latest Japanese album at XAM FM!!!

If you don't believe me...



There it is, in black and white!!!
And they posted this picture

Which is the jacket for the CD+DVD version. So in danger of sounding greedy, I really hope to be getting that one!

I'm really exited to get it! In two weeks they will have a contest where you can win Big bangs 2009 Big Concert DVD. So everybody head to xamfm.com and check it out!

I have to go now, already late for work >_<

Gerard had promised to playback to Cliff Richards 'Living Doll' (with the young ones) like he did in the 2007 edition of Serious Request. That is, if the total amount of requests totalled more than 7.500 Euro's for the red cross. In the end there were so many people requesting the song that it raised more than 14.000 Euro's so Gerard had to swallow his pride and putt on his playback-show! Plus it was the most requested song of the day, beating Pearl Jam to the number 1 spot!
You can watch the fragment below here. It's hilarious! Sorry I can't figure out to embed the video without it jumping to the most recent one every time....

Oh, and for more information about this wonderful project, read it´s Wiki page here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serious_Request

This year they're raising money to fight malaria, a disease threatening almost 50% of the world population!

Oh My God I Christmas-pimped my layout ^^

I'm so love with the candy cane bear ♥
Tell me what you think!!

Tomorrow I will relay my Rammstein concert story and vids. I promise! ^^

Well, I guess every fan out there knows about them canceling what was supposed to be the best Mirotic Con ever (and wants to kick SM Ent. skinny asses because of it).
( Don't read if you're not a TVXQ fan Collapse )
Wow... I feel a lot better getting this off my chest.

On a more happier note: my sister has bought a house and will leave me alone in my now too big appartment. But my sweetest friend Sary will move in coming Februari so I'm exited for that!
And I got a new set of pans from my parents that will probably last me for the rest of my life (good quality FTW!)

I'm not looking forward to the next couple of weeks though. So busy, helping out in my sis' house but also nice things. Going to dinner with my old classmates, having a high tea with my girlfriends (no boys allowed unless they're wearing a wig, high heals and a skirt) and celebrating my dongseangs birthday~ So excited for that!

So yeah, I went to see Miyavi yesterday at Tivolli De Oudegracht in Utrecht. And I have to admit, I was kind of a bit reluctant to go. I know I'm such a bad person to actually deny a fan a much desired ticket because I decided to go see Miyavi on a whim. But Utrecht is close to home and well I never say no to some good rock.

Anyway, I went with xpearlpaulieneand since the concert was scheduled to start half past eight, with the doors opening an hour before that time, we decided to meet at Utrecht central station at half past five, giving us plenty of time to score us some foods and walk around leisurely in Utrecht before we had to make our way to the concert venue. 

I have to say, I felt kind of old around all the other kiddies present. Not that it was much of a surprise to me. What surprised me more where the amount of soccer moms present to keep their emo-esk offspring as safe as possible.
Eventually we entered the concerthall at seven, only an hour and half before it was supposed to start. Since the venue is seat less we wandered around a bit, trying to find and nice view on the stage. We ended up on the second floor on the left side of the stage. And I've actually found fancam from that angle, even though we stood more to the right so we could see more of the stage.


Couldn't for the life of me tell which song this is, but I'm guessing 21st Century Tokyo Blues. I could be totally off though...
EDIT: From my now, a bit more extensive knowledge of his songs I can say... the second one is BOOM-HAH-BOOM-HAH-HAH. The song in the beginning still eludes my knowledge (though I'm sure I could find some setlist posted somewhere ^^)

In the end I was really glad I went because he really knows how to put on a show.  His english was pretty much understandable and even the few Dutch lines he spewed where said almost without an accent. Though I wonder whether he knows that 'plezier' is kind of a dorky way to say 'fun' in Dutch. But still.
The only thing that ruined the evening for me, are the screaming fangirls. There was actually a moment when I thought the screams alone where enough to rupture my eardrums. Seriously, I feared for my future hearing abilities.
Also I really don't find it necessary to squeal whenever I see a shoulder revealed in all it's tattooed loveliness for a few seconds. I've been to the Chippendales, and will see them again in a month or two, if a mere shoulder was enough to make me squeal, seeing the rest would result in brainhammeriging.

Oh well, I really enjoyed the show and (surprisingly) the music. Though I could do without le screaming... And when he comes back again, I'll make sure to get a ticket ^o^

Oh My Lord... since the Korean version of SuJu M's Super Girl came out, I can't stop listening to it. It's much much much better than the Chinese version. Cause that one is just bleh!
During my very many times watching the MV I kept looking for that deliciously suave Donghae with his nice wavy hair... Only thing is... I seriously don't get his skinny jeans/dress pants thing... Truly... Asian fashion baffles me sometimes...
But... in a time where everybody's hairstyle goes short, shorter, shortest I really like Donghae hair.... I made a screencaps from the MV and I just love this image...

Gah! So suave~

And Hangen is a very cute dork as well so adorkable!!! Just want to cuddle him (and with Hangen it would even feel legal... Donghae is... let's say... very much younger than me...)

Don't you just want to squish him???

So just press play ~


Now I will be off to watch Supernatural Season 5 Episode 3 *skipping off*

So I have done some major cramming this weekend and... I'm down to the last two episodes of Supernatural season four. I hope to watch those tonight ^o^
The preview at the end of episode 20 is very very very promising! And then onwards to the new season, starting with Episode 1: Sympathy for the devil airing on 10/9. I feel like a squelling fangirl~oh wait... I am! Only that I usually squeel about something else.


Speaking of which, I have been a bad bad girl and ordered both the CD version as well as the CD+DVD version for Colors ~Melody & Harmony~ by the lovely Soulmates Jejung and Yuchun. This song is very fitting for the Hello Kitty 35th anniversary, so cute and fluffy! And the CD version includes this song live @ Tokyo Dome!
                  

Furthermore, I have done some fabric shopping this weekend and bought the fabric for my Daisy (yes the one from Super Mario) costume for AnimeCon 2010. Now I'm going to be busy cutting the pattern, cutting the fabric and then back to the sewing machine again...
But I'm still determined to write more!

Untill the next time~

Ah... the joys of turning 28... Well at least I got presents. People always ask me after my birthday, "How does it feel to be .... years?" And seriously I have no idea what 28 should feel like. I don't consider myself 28 years old because the feeling I have with that age is one of having at least mothered one child. Needless to say... no kids for me as of yet. Not even a possible dad in sight... And yet sometimes I feel really kind of old. Specifically when my younger friends force me to take the lead because I'm the oldest... (yeah you know who you are!!)

I guess it also depends on the age of your friends. Because most of my friends are younger than I am (one of them even 10 years younger, she's so cute...) they make me feel and act younger than I am in reality. And in a way I am thankfull for that. So here's to you guys... I love you and thanks for being such great friends ^o^

I will blog later about my trip to Antwerp cause I still need to get the photo's from my camera/phone and ask my bestest dongsaeng Lien for hers ^^

Oh and have you noticed the change of font. I thought Times New Roman was so~ 2008 and changed it to Calibri, a font I personally like.
Now onwards to the future and my 28th years resolution is to start writing more. Seriously the plot ideas are killing me but I lack the time to actually write them out. An other thing I'm planning on doing the next couple of days is to finish Supernatural season four so I can be fresh and ready for the start of the fifth and sadly last season *sadface*
Oh whadaya know.. another reason for me to spend my time not writing... le sigh... Never mind, first I gonna write something for my community multiply_sky cause she needs more loving (shamelessly promoting here ^^) And if anybody is great with layouts, I could really use a shiney new one for this one ^o^

See ya!

Uhm, Okay. Since I have decided I should REALY update my LJ more, here it is.
Yesterday I’ve watched Twilight. And I am in doubt whether this was an hour of my life wasted or it at least provided me with some insight on Teen Movies during this current age. Of course I didn’t really went into this movie totally unbiased, after hearing so many stories from my friends about Kirsten Thomas’ phail and naturally the reason for me watching it: RPattz, so bear with me.

( Onwards to the spoilers and of course my opinion..Collapse )

Untill next time! *hugs*</i>
