samsung p3

I want a Samsung P3!

Samsung heard me! I was thinking whether it was possible to have bluetooth in mp3 player and boo! P3 has it! :D
Of course that's not the only reason why i wanted P3. I kinda like Samsung's mp3 player because of their quality. Philip's sound quality isnt as good as Samsung's one so I'm definitely going back to Samsung for mp3 players.

$299 for a 16GB one. (Bonus come early please!)

twelve kingdoms

Listening to a track from Twelve Kingdom's many OSTs titled Junigenmukyoku (accoustic). Really love the erhu sound in the track. Sorrowful. Love that anime, bittersweet ending.

Anyway, talking about that sound track, there was a china show sometime back on channel 8 that has the EXACT same tune (and instrument).

I wonder if its a case of blatant copyright infringement.


In the middle of OT but seeing that i have only about 25 more minutes to go, i'm totally giving in to the temptations of Internet (and music).

working

Some people asked me if starting working life is scary. Working is nothing to be scary about, that is IF you join the right company and have fabulous colleagues, which doesnt occur to everyone.

I'M KIDDING :D lol im scaring myself

Well, just do your job and avoid gossipers if you can (I can't), and NEVER repeat anything the said gossiper(s) had told you to anyone else.

burning a big hole

I realised that i might be going to have an expensive hobby. And the crux is knowing where to get the supplies for cheap.

It could be an addictive thing at the same time, if not it won't be earning billions in the Japanese economy.

Inuyasha

Inuyasha Final Act is finally out, probably after 2 or 3 years of hiatus. For a while i thought they would probably give up the final act because of (i heard) the conflict between the studio and the producer? Or something like that.

That being said, i was a little disappointed because the whole thing felt rush. I've only "watched" one episode and they were going way too fast. Even their dialogue were too fast. It was something like cramming 200 chapters from the manga into 20 episodes, so go figure.

"8 years ago, Inuyasha and gang were looking of Shikon no Tama. 8 years after, they are still looking for it"

Theme songs wise, i really prefer the opening themes in the previous seasons because somehow they gave me adrenaline rush . The OP of the new season is sung by Do As Infinity. Honestly, after DAI's comeback, i feel their music style has somewhat changed. Not a bad thing, not a bad thing.

Talking about anime, I've a sudden urge to watch Saiyuki series. I wished Saiyuki Burial would hurry up. And its not even a full fledged series. It's an OVA. I kinda missed Sanzo and gang.

Need to go and check up on Burial since i've been out of touch from the anime scene for too long.

And i can't wait to watch Darker than Black season 2. And Gintama. I know im wayyyyyy lagging in Gintama but most of the streaming sites are in megavideo. As much as im ok with megaupload, I hate megavideo because of their limitations and i swore i didn even exceed their limit.

calorie counter

I lose roughly around 1700 calorie doing nothing. In that case , i have to reduce my calorie intake by 500-1000 to lose weight per week BUT i read that body goes into 'starving' mode if the calorie intake reaches less than 1200, and that means slowing down of metabolism so you wont lose your fat storage fast.

Hope i interpreted the calorie thingy right. lol.

boo

Time passes so slow. I wish i was kept busy so that i dont have to worry how fast i'll finish my work.

With my bday round the corner, i'm reminded of Juka (cos he shares the same birth date as me), who has stepped out of the music scene indefinitely because of his throat problem. And with the death of Jasmine You recently(from Versailles), im kinda worried for him. I've started to appreciate his songs shortly before he announced his decision (which is roughly close to a year ago?).
Anyway, back to Jasmine. I still don't knoe the cause of his death but my initial speculation was swine flu. However i heard my sis saying something about him being too weak to get out of the car and wanting to watch the night sky as his last request. Rockers certainly have a shorter life span than anyone else in the music scene.
Aye, i wonder if Hizaki or Kamijo will find any replacement for Jasmine.

R.I.P Jasmine (in red).





*random* Won't be nice if mp3 have bluetooth? That way we don't have to plug it into the computers (that you aren't sure if they are safe) to transfer songs.

hi

Sorry for being away too long. Work suck the life out of me and i dont have much leisure to enjoy my time online and blogging. I'll try to update stuffs here.

My external hard-disk gave me a scare on Sunday. Can't read the USB connected to it and I began to mull over my 50+GB of music and 30+GB of programs stored inside. Fixed the problem anyway but now, i've started another site on livejournal to backup my music. Ok, so i didn't really 'just started' my Livejournal..i had it under use but just convert it to backup journal recently.

And so i spent a good part of my little-online-time to revamp my LJ site and backing my music.

=D


Excuse me for the lack of professionalism this pic shows. The food was tempting me and I was kinda in a hurry to taste it. This pasta might not look delicious because of the lack of different colours, and the chili padis are hidden at the bottom. But i'm proud to say that it taste rather good. Well, at least the taste is quite similar with the taste i had imagined it. And the chili padis really added flavour to it. I dont know if adding of the ground pepper made much of a difference but I was quite happy with the level of spicyness.

The main focus of this dish is the big big white white scallops! I have never tasted much scallops so these big scallops were an interesting taste for me. The clever addition of seaweed is awesome. Since it has a crunchy texture to it, I somehow got addicted to the seaweed more than the pasta.

I cant blog abt food anymore. Im getting hungry just by looking at it. Hahahaha. I think im beginning to become a chili fan gg. I think i might consider the use of chili padis for every kind of dish i (am going/ will) make in the future, and of course, this does not apply to porridge. I wont add chili padis to porridge ;)

Jrock rants

Due to my intensive WoW gaming for the past 2 months or so, and Ayu's busy schedule (causing her to reduce the times she update her LJ with Jrock goodies), i have COMPLETELY MISSED OUT KAGRRA,'S ALBUM.

Seems like they are slowly bringing back their type of music for which they are famous for. As compared to the couple singles/ one album before Shu, they were like going the normal rock feel, but for Shu, they have the tradidtional Japanese music feel. At least for most of the tracks in the album. I'll always be awed by Isshi's superb vocals, being able to sing in relatively high pitch so that his voice suits the music type, and when in real life, his voice is deep. Prolly the deepest in Kagrra,.

Anyway, I think i'm going to like Chariots even more now. I just got their single (from how long ago i do not know), and the opening track is fabulous. Seems like somehow the band retain a bit of feel from Phantasmagoria. (Riku, vocalist of Phantasmagoria went to become vocalist of Chariots after Phatas disbanded.) Wait, come to think of it, I think Kisaki is the one who is writing the songs for Chariots, right? Whatever, I love Kisaki's kind of music. I think he might be one of the few people who can composed every Jrock ballads and have me hook onto the songs. No wonder Kisaki left Dir en Grey, or rather the previous build up of DeG, because he has different type of music direction with the rest of DeG.

Moving on to Angelo, I haven't really got into them yet although its the buildup of Pierrot (minus Aiji and Jun). I have to say as of now, i prefer Kirito's solo works.

Lol. And Kirito is sure scawee =S

"Pierrot initially had a different line up in their indie days with KOHTA (Bass), Kirito (Guitar), Luka (Drums), Jun (Guitar) and Hidelow (Vocals). However, shortly after recording Kikurui Piero, the band’s first indie album, Luka left and TAKEO (ex-Superstar) replaced him on drums. A couple of months afterwards, an ultimatum from band leader Kirito, who had a different vision of the band than Hidelow, delivered along the lines of “Either Hidelow goes or I do” saw the departure of Hidelow. Aiji (ex-Kalen) was also recruited around that time and Kirito took over Hidelow’s position as vocalist."

And the last i heard, Shar's combat instructor in NS would be.......John.

I can almost imagine Shar going up to John and make lots of jokes while he's trying to teach the rest. Ok, not possible because he might have broken whatever rules over there if he did that.

Pretty boys

Just went to check Gackt's official site for the first time. Im not that much a fan of his but stumbling upon his music collection in my hard drive, i kinda remembered my Gackt & Hyde dream so i went to to check it out.



"Hey~Welcome to my holy shrine dedicating to ME"

Funny pose. And Gackt's way of remembering his anniversary is with a 2 song, 4 tracks single??? Ok, maybe he paid more attention for his upcoming "debut" of cross-dressing. I prefer Gackt in his "manly" style. He'll remind me of Mana if he cross dress. Speaking of Mana. That Gackt have similar website like Mana! I clicked on a link, and then i was directed to a puzzle-solving like website. I didnt even bother to read the words on it (but at least I was able to access Mana's site).



"Oh Im soooo drop dead gorgeous"
(the LOLZ. No offence, but Gackt has plenty of photoshoots like this. His eyes seem to be telling me "Im the King, yo. Bow down to me.".


This is much better.



HYDE!!!!! *askdjhgfdkdnfieif*



Got to admit, I prefer Hyde over Gackt. No, i'm not comparing them . Ok, maybe i am. But that's because Hyde's music is more rock than Gackt! Gackt is going more over to the poppy side. I think he wants to forget his past with Malice Mizer, since he's really into the showbiz more that 10 years and he was the vocalist for the visual kei group. Shit happened and he quit Malice Mizer (me thinks something to do with Mana).


Oh, well, he's married with kids (last i read abt it in 1999). But he kept really low profile about it. So i dont think people will know if anything happened.

I love his styling for Season's Call single. One of the best so far.



Not Hyde, but....Miyavi! Not sure abt the rumors that he's quitting showbiz after this last release. I even heard that he's getting married. But im too busy and lazy to confirm that rumour.


There was something odd abt Mivy when i saw this album cover. His piercings are GONE! If im not wrong, he has tons of them on his face. But they are gone. he has the spunky weirdo feel with his piercings but more mature without them.


And he's good with guitars.



Pretty boy :D

Gackt and Hyde

Dreamt that I was in Japan and I *happened* to walk into Gackt and Hyde's autography session in one of the shopping malls. It was damn wird, because Gackt was overly friendly and all. I got his autograph, wanted to take a picture with him, but he pushed my phone away, took a pic of himself with his phone, and said: "Don't worry, I'll send it to your phone". I don't know how he got my phone number but he went on to put my number on his speed dial and sent it to me anyway. xD

Hyde. Ahh Hyde. He's cheeky. After i got his autograph and wanted to take picture with him, so i went and posed with him and all. Then suddenly he told me to lean in closer and i think i felt him lean closer till he touch my cheek, then....i woke up.

Fabulous dream, not because i got real close with Hyde and Gackt got my number on his speed dial, because i kinda feel we were like close friends (though not in reality). Just like the time i dreamt of Kagrra,. They were fliming their Kagrra, no Su in my house and I just sat with them, talking as though they know me and I know them. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.....:D
