I've recently begun to watch Haken no Hinkaku" (loosely translated as "The Dignity of the Temorary Workers")....and I can't believe I waited this long to watch it! The dramas I chose to watch this season (Kira Kira Kenshui, Himitsu no Hanazono, Hana Yori Dango 2) have really been scraping the bottom of the barrel, and I was only continuing to watch ( Read more... )

I seem to have a tendency not to update in months and suddenly swoop in with an update. I actually forgot I even had a LJ blog until a friend mentioned it to me ( Read more... )

ALOT has happened since my last entry (which was six months ago. Hard to believe time can pass by so quickly!). For one thing, Aeronauts (one of my favorite Japanese rock bands) are releasing a new album on September the 6th! It's weird how I came across the news though because I always visit their website every other day (since they're still ( Read more... )

This is the first time I've watched someone confess their love on Ainori---and it ends up like this?! MIE ( Read more... )

From what I've read of her on the internet, I thought her music would be more heavy rock. But when I finally listened to a song of hers, I realized---I've already heard this song three years ago! It was a huge hit in 2001. The background music's catchy, but the centerpiece is definitely the lyrics ( Read more... )

Wow! This week's episode of Ainori (for a summary of what this Japanese reality show is about, scroll down a few entries to read my first blog entry on Ainori :)) proves with hardwork and determination---you CAN get the girl ( Read more... )

I love this song. It's one of the insert songs to the drama I posted a blog entry on a few days ago: "1 Litre no Namida". Just because I love this song so much, I made the roomaji of this song so for any of those who can't read Japanese can still sing along ( Read more... )
