um...they have really artistic stairs? >< The museum was designed by 3 different architects so it was really interesting to wander through it. The art collection was...interesting, I suppose...but I don't have much interest in ancient Korean pottery, so *shrug* There were a couple of pieces from the contemporary art section that I liked. One was of ( Read more... )

Yay! More G lyrics! I've decided to make it a project to translate a G song whenever I have a bit of time cuz honestly, I never really bothered to look up what most of them are about and translating them myself will probably help them stick a little better in my memory. That and I need the translation practice anyway, lol. I haveta admit that this ( Read more... )

My cousin & I stumbled upon this imitation of the Fontana di Trevi in Lotte World. We had no idea that such a thing existed, so it was a pleasant surprise. We got a little giggly over it because seven years ago, it was also with her that I saw the real one, and we loved it there so much that we ended up spending the end of almost every night of our ( Read more... )

Speaking of portfolio, I realized that I have yet to post the pieces that I did cuz I didn't wanna do it until the deadline was over, and then I just totally forgot about it. Having never done a portfolio before, I dunno how these compare at all, but Carleton wanted handcrafted stuff, and these are what I ended up creating when I thought about ( Read more... )

My cousin teaches the most wonderful kids, I'm so jealous! ...that's not to say that my kids are not awesome too, but DAMMIT!!! how come her grade 6's speak better English than my grade 9's?!?!?! >< hahaha. Anyway, it was an awesome experience being able to attend her class. Even if the future takes me away from education, I think there will always ( Read more... )

So as I was listening to this song, marveling (again) at how good it is with its combination of orchestra and rock, I suddenly got the urge to translate the lyrics, so I did. So for anyone who might care, here they are. And if you've never heard the song, go youtube it or something! XD

I just realized that I STILL don't have this single and that it ( Read more... )

According to Oricon, GACKT is the second most beautiful man in Japan of 2010 (which, FYI, he was also last year). HOWEVER! Unlike last year, where he was beaten by Mizushima Hiro (there are actually people who thought Mizushima Hiro is more beautiful than GACKT?!?!?! What the hell's wrong with them?!?!?! ><), this year it's Fukuyama Masaharu that's ( Read more... )

Bought a new blanket at the movie theatres two days ago. Couldn't help it, it's the cutest thing! XD It's a lap blanket, so it's about 70cm x 90cm and really soft and warm! I love it! love love love! KYA! XD For anyone who don't know, it's the mongoose from Nodame Cantabile. That's a Japanese manga turned drama turned anime about classical music, ( Read more... )
