I'm not remotely sleepy although I know I should go to bed seeing as how I have a very early start tomorrow morning! I shall watch Shiroi Kyoto because it's never failed to knock me out after 5 mins so far............ whoever said it was good possibly leads a very crappy boring life.

Before I forget, I have a song for Kasi and The Scampi. I like ( Read more... )

live performances are great, I haven't seen any in a LONG time and we have some nice outdoor theater here during the season. sigh ... I'm back to the money-crunch now that I've bought a new car, so guess there won't be any live theater in my near future!

taking up guitar again? cool! I always wish I played, it's so portable and plunky!!

A new car is worth the sacrifice! What car are you getting?

I really like the summer and hate the cold winter months, so when it's sunny out I feel like I HAVE to do something worthwhile with my time otherwise I get really depressed that I'm wasting the good weather and my time. Hence why at the mo I already have 3 different holidays in mind for next summer! Don't know how I'm going to manage that haha.

I'm going to try to learn it....... I hope it happens......

I bought a new 2008 Honda Civic! I'll post pictures later today.

I know what you mean about savoring the good weather while you have it; it was always that way in Chicago. Now that I live in Southern California where we have mostly-nice weather all year 'round I have to give myself special permission sometimes to just stay in when the weather is nice! I actually can't wait for the rainy season to start, it's been so abominably hot this summer!

Oh I understand that actually, about giving yourself permission to stay in when the weather's nice =) But if the weather is mostly nice all the time then I guess it becomes the norm, so rather than going out and "making the most of the fine weather", it becomes more of a "staying in to avoid the heat".

Ugh I HATE rain.

"but this empty bedroom won't make anything right"

I LOVE THAT YOU KNOW STARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

xD

Holy God. You're the only person I have ever met that knows who they are! That's seriously cool.

And I know Last Man Standing, except it's just coming out here sometime this month so I haven't watched it. I like those reality shows actually. I like America's Got Talent. Except it always turns out to be a singing show so basically just turns into another American Idol...which I hate. With a passion.

Do learn the guitar song! Playing an instrument is awesome. I really wanna learn bass...but dear god those things are expensive. =(

I am very interested in this pledge of yours now! I will remind you once a week. You'll eventually be so annoyed you'll either do it....or delete me from you flist and friends lock your journal. xDD

OMG I am speechless with wonderment and happiness that you know the band I'm talking about! I'm SO hooked on that song! You honestly know A LOT of music, quick rec me something! I wouldn't have known of them if not for my brother and his bandmates, they did me another compilation cd. My brother and his friends are pretty cool. I'm very fond of them anyway ( ... )

REC! La Oreja de Van Gogh. They're a spanish band. I really like a lot of their music. Try out Rosas, Geographia, Dulca Locura or v.s.o. I can upload any or all of those songs for you if you want. haha ( ... )

OH! also, how is this for another weird thing in common...

Guess what my brother plays?

...drums.

Granted he's 12 so he isn't fantastic...but he's surprisingly good for as small as her is. And it has got to the point that it actually sounds like a music beat...not random noise.

haha don't remind people how delicious my nickname is XD

i've given the song a few listens and i have to say i really like it! there is something really familiar with female singers voice. the lyrics seem very bittersweet but i love these gentle type of songs.

oh i've heard about the open air theatre perfomances in regents park - i think its already finished this season? but i'll definitely try to catch a show when theres a new perfomance. i love the 1920's aswell i pretty much love anything from the 1950's and earlier especially the music and films.

last man standing is that the one which has been on tv recently? where they fight the natives and stuff? XD idk i don't watch bbc that much.

thats great you're learning to play guitar again :D

i have to say out of the long list of nicknames i have The Scampi has to be one of the more unusual/catchiest ones XD

haha thanks - it's Hasegawa Jun she's a model for ViVi :3 ( ... )

kameringo September 17 2007, 22:18:27 UTC
I'm good with nicknames........... really! XD

Is she a model and nothing else? She looks vaguely familiar.

Yeah October is going to be really busy for me too seeing as how I'll be away most of it! And November is my month of many birthdays...........

Okay I'll definitely remind you, IF I'm still on LJ next summer! X3

LOL I didn't neither, but I flipped channels in between ad breaks and there it was! I don't mind the Weakest Link as much as Millionaire, which I believe is still on. Talk about flogging a dead horse.

What are all these Chinese Elvises you're talking about!? I'm getting befuddled! :O

So will I, I love people who sound like Elvis, cos you know I love Elvis! :3 But I think I've got plans for Sat. Drats.

Oh now you see, I'm poor, I don't have Sky............. :'(

Hello. How's the guitar lessons going? Do you actually go to a guitar class or are you learning from a friend? Sangatsu kokonoka is one of my fav songs! Did you manage to play it? I learned to play it from Youtube. lol.

I was in York btw. Where are you from? Sorry for being lazy and answering you all over the place. Makes it harder for anyone who plans to stalk me i guess -_-;

Hiyas! Nice of you to initiate a chat! =) Haha XD

I'm learning the guitar from a friend, no formal lessons! I think it'd be a waste of money taking formal lessons cos I've been told by everyone that the guitar is really easy to learn and it must be true because my father, brother and mates never had to take any lessons so I don't see why I should!

I'm still in the beginning stage so I can't play anything properly as yet! I can do the chords though, but changing chords quick enough is a bit more of a challenge haha.

I'm in London. Do you miss England?

Next time just leave me a comment on my latest entry, that'd be easiest I reckon. Although I don't mind where I have conversations =)

Whereabouts are you again? Somewhere in Asia right?

sangatsu7 September 27 2007, 18:12:50 UTC
I see. Don't worry with much practice before long you'll be able to change those chords with your eyes closed. Hehe. Your fingers must be aching like hell now huh?

I'm from Malaysia. Ever been here? Yes I miss England. I also miss weird things like those large-ass fish & chips (tastes really different here), ducks (lots in York) and the weather^^. You're lucky you get 4 seasons.. here it's either hot, rains, or really damn hot.. it's pretty monotonous..
