Sexy, happy cat!
I know it’s late, but now I can do it...
How to capture a dream using words? How to express quicksilver images gone in the blink of an eye? Trying to do this a couple of words come to mind: Raw Energy and Joyful Music. Maybe these will work to explain what it meant to be at the LinClover concert tonight (11/10/07). It overtook my wildest expectations, crumbled them and rebuilt them into something new and totally alien. I was dazed and speechless.
From the start, I knew it was going to be a wonderful show. It was obvious, come on! Ren was going to play, what else is there to expect but pure, undiluted, pleasure to the senses??? I just never thought it was going to be so good it would go over my contentment scale. I'd never gone to a live concert before. I mean, yeah, deprived childhood, ne? I expected to sing and have fun... and feel a bit out of sorts... But I never expected this explosion of feelings and energy that was transmitted from them to us and back again.
I sang along with Yuri and Ren, hopping and dancing unable to express my joy and happiness while my soul reacted to music my brain did not understand but whose significance my heart perfectly gathered. I danced and shouted to my kitty heart’s content to the contagious beat of Thee Out Mods wonderfully frenzied music. I am almost deaf and still smiling like a loon. Disturbed much? Don't think so, ‘cause I would do it again in a blink!
Thee OutMods...man, they were a wonderful surprise. I heard them on their MySpace page and liked their music, so I had an idea what to expect. I was not unhappy to have them open the Linclover presentation but I was not in awe of them. I expected to be entertained... but the sheer energy and force was like an A-bomb blowing up on my face. It just went off and it hit me like a ton of bricks squarely on the chest and I loved it! That one is one punk band I can't wait to see live again! Sana stole my heart with her wonderfully raspy voice, not screechy, not childish but womanly and teasing... sultry even. I must confess I was confused. Girl? Boy? Darn it whatever it is its 'effin' gorgeous! So yeah... T.T discovered my protolesbianism by the end of their performance. LOL. But then, my romance with bassists continues... GOD BLESS Yoshiki!!! That man is so energetic and genki!!! I love him! he reminded me of Ren... taller, younger, but not cuter... LOL... yeah... great for a hay ride...nyah! ^.^ rediscovered my whorish tendencies... oh my! OH MY!!! *Dies* did I mention he's a redhead... yeah... I know... shame on you kitten... >.>...
Ren-sama!!!
About singing along with LinClover, I believe Sara and I were the only fans doing so and they seemed surprised and happy to see us doing so. Yuri seemed moved to the point of tears at a certain point. I almost cried when I realized that. I screamed myself hoarse. These people are such great musicians; it was well worth coming all across the country just to see them play.
I heard them speak during the afternoon. It was wonderful. During afternoon there was a Q&A, which by the way, was never announced properly so people never came prepared... yet magical kitten that i am, I asked a question! I actually dared to! Ha! I marvel at my own daring! (I become inordinately shy and silent before the one I love... imagine!) I asked them how they handled tension and anger as a group and it was the first question they answered individually. Their reaction was weird. Until that moment the flow of information was relaxed and jovial, if tired and by rote. But when I made the question, their faces showed surprise, hesitancy and there was sort of an uncomfortable silence before a flurry of whispered consultation followed. It was as if they've never encountered this sort of question before. The translator even said that it was a deep question ‘cause so far the questions were run-of-the-mill. Mine was the first that was different.
(Overachiever cat...yeah! They all stared at me appraisingly. It was not the same kind of look when I stood than when I sat. While they conferred about what to answer, I was so embarrassed... wondering if I'd done something wrong or not... but I really wanted to know... about other things. Important things like this. People don't value the importance of stress in human relations. A good management of stress makes for long relationships. The fact that they stated more than once that 'they were tired' was driving me nuts with worry. They changed their music style because they were tired, they stopped writing complicated lyrics because they were tired... so it was all there...)
in a way, it was fun because it confirmed my suspicions that Ren is the mediator. Nao and Yuri are always fighting for one reason or the other (music-wise). Nao is the one who usually gets angry. He is the one that regularly must excuse himself. When they don’t react to his mediation, Ren himself flies over the roof - he admitted to this signaling with his hands with a cute ‘horns motion’ followed by a ‘poofy sound’ (^.^)
On with the kitten life, ne?
Boring, boring, boring...
On the other hand, I will finish my master's in June 25, 08! I am 3 classes away from graduation!! YAY!!
The people from INS told me that I got 99% on the Adjudications Officer exam... for all three grades... now I must submit supporting documentation.. and see if they offer a post. I am so tired! I want to leave here!!! New York or Washington would be so cool! Expensive but cool!!! I would take Vanesa with me! yup! Sara is doing so good with her band!! I am glad she is working towards her goal! is good to see her so happy!! nyah! I will try to be happy too!
I have gone down 60 pounds so far.. I am happy to say the least!
I am learning new stuff from a couple of WICCAN friends... It’s interesting... and explains a lot of things... that I can do.
I dream about things before they happen, babies are presented to me before they are born and stuff like that... quirks you know? I am curious... so I will continue to explore. I used to dabble in Wiccan before I was scared... only problem is that I do not particularly like one of the people there. And I am not yet decided whether to go with the moon or the sun... it’s complicated... nyah! Crazy even! But it’s interesting!
