Blue, blue, blue....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BECKY~!!!!

Need yet another retreat? :)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

- Aki-san!!! GET WELL SOON!!!!!
- Haven't seen HP yet. Maybe this weekend? If this storm relents, that is.
- I just remembered. Who's seen "I Come With The Rain" yet? I'm waiting for it to be released here and IMDB dates it as released on 2008 and I'm like, "Whaaaaa????" KimuTaku, Shawn Yue, Lee Byung-hun, and my still-enduring crush Josh Hartnett (liked him since I saw him on this obscure flick "The Faculty"). I cannot NOT see it!

- So, except for the second, third and fourth line of this post, this entry can be summed up in one word.

SHALLOW.

Let my shallowness begin.... )

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BECKY~!!!!!

How do you feel? Wiser....? (Older....?)

.... WISER??

(Does the 49 in your username stand for your age? LOL)

And I started Tudors Ep1.

....intense. Very intense. Were the Don Juan de Marco and Casanova films ever THIS "revealing"?

For now..... (i know, i know, Arashi will be on Utaban today. Gah. I can't wait to see more Nakai-Ohno action!) but just so no one would say my life revolves around Arashi...... let's do this.

"DO YOU....MERLIN?" "Yeah, whatever."



These might be spoiler-ish...so are my comments, but I'll try to be vague. EMPHASIS ON "TRY".

[subbed] 070414 TSD - Higashiyama & Shizu as guests

*buckles, and on my knees*

FORGIVE ME FOR THE SPAM, MY LUVLEES! But it's Aiba-month!!! And an early happy birthday to dearest Alli!!!!

This is the first of two Tensai! Shimura Doubutsuen clips that En-sensei and I worked on. It has Aibakaness, animals, and senpai-kouhai love!!!

RULES (are you actually reading this?)

1. Go here to shower En-sensei with lotsa luv!!! And throw in AibaHugs for good measure. Aside If you wanna use her translation, ask her. If you wanna use my timed file, sorry. I deleted it. (I'm sure.)
2. DO NOT UPLOAD TO STREAMING SITES, OR TO ANY OTHER STORAGE SITES. Do NOT repost links elsewhere. Link back here. It's not locked, anyway.
3. This is NOT the full episode. En-sensei made the cuts of the episode herself, highlighting only the important ones. Meaning: Aiba.
4. For the JE-'virgins', I suggest you google Higashiyama. Lolz. It'll make for good research.
5. How's the holidays treating you? (Right, not really a rule, but.)



OH MY GOD. WHAT'D AIBA DO!?!?

Rule Number One in Dating Aiba: STAY AWAY FROM ZOOS )

Happiness Day 4...record-breaking!!

Chronology would dictate I should've posted this last night, but ohmygod, I slept.

So...Day 4.

... My grandma came, and YES! We were able to cajole her into staying with us until after Christmas!!!! It was really hard, since she's so attached to her house (which is like, two and a half - rocky & winding - hours away) I can spoil her, yay!

... You know those chocolate lollipops? Well, the lady who makes them (home-made) came by at work yesterday and YES! She has mint-chocos! So I bought an entire box, DELIBERATELY pretending I still don't have this blasted cough.

... I don't have to go overtime on a Saturday!!! (today) So I slept in late. It's by choice, this decision. I've been putting in crazy hours at work all weekends of October and November, so I figured I can skip this one. Which means....

... that I can go finish my Christmas shopping. Yeah. Not done yet. Haven't even sent some of the Christmas Cards yet. Bleh. So....consider it my New Year Card. lolz.

... THIS PREVIEW/VIDEO. Need I say more?

... and this one. I don't think I've enjoyed an HnA recently since they changed the format. Until now. And I made a capspam to celebrate it.



Yes, Riida. You're Number 1.....

...but you're still much too thin!!!!! )

*blissful sigh*

Capspams are so cathartic.

[subbed] Arashi no Shukudaikun 112 - DAIGO

I take it back.

Aiba does not have the monopoly on adorable bakaness.

But his kind is numbered.

Daigo is fun~ny!!

RULES & NOTES (not that you actually read this, but on the pretense that you do, let's get this out of the way).

1. Huuuuge thanks to [livejournal.com profile] capncosmo  for letting me use her translations! I waited for like...two days? before somebody takes it for subbing but when no one did, I knew this ep shouldn't be left unsubbed, so. THANK YOU!!!! Send lots of love and good vibes her way, pray for gre~at results on her JLPT exams, SPAM HER. XDD

2. NO ONLINE STREAMING. I know I make threats and such, and I'm really basically a nice person. Don't make me change. :) (and thank you to the lovely souls who let me know of the 'anomalies') Besides, I don't wanna have to lock this.

3. If ANYONE wants to use the subs off to translate to other languages, don't ask me, ask [livejournal.com profile] capncosmo . If you want to make use of my timed file, I'm sorry, I already deleted it. (I think.)

4. And, in case you're wondering, yes, I DO sleep. When it comes to me, that is. Anyway, who needs it? *goes off to continue Aiba-Higashiyama mayhem and finish Ohno on waratte*

5. Sorry for the spam. And sorry this was shabby.

Here we go~WISH! Forgive my biases-WISH!!



Fondues are sinful....calorie-wise. )

And simply because THIS tickled me so much...I post this for good measure.

Happiness Day 1...albeit bittersweet

It's a Monday out here, I have the blasted colds, and my head's throbbing like crazy (again) but I have to make a post.

One. They don't call him Pambansang Kamao for nothing... )

Two. A Life Cut Short... )
.....

MA-AN!!!! HERE IT IS!!!!!

Japan TV really REALLY loves me!!!!!!!!!! )
I'll take this opportunity to make this my happy post for today. Happiness Day 1, THAT meme.

I'm happy that....
... Manny made us proud (and that his wife Jinkee did not go into labor from seeing her husband punch dela Hoya to a pulp. I exaggerated.)
... a lovely young man has gone home to his Maker after living a short, but sweet and hopefully full life.
... Japan TV loves me to pieces....
... I will see Ohno again in a drama!!!!!!!! YES!!!
... I got back my voice, after losing it for a day. (yeah. my usual bout of colds....)

A bit of everythin'...

I understand this might be a tad long but I decided to put it in one post. Bear with me.

A bit late, but some pimps.

Lots of MMAs coming out. Still the best Arashi variety, if I may say so. I sorely miss it.

From STORMY team sub, MMA 81, where Aiba wins at life, Sho was officially declared LOUSY, Captain got lots of birthday love from his members, and he just lambasted all the crybaby-kids they ever worked with on the show. YES. DOWNLOAD HERE but must join first.

*pats Sho-kun* The truth hurts, doesn't it? Don't worry, you're still lovely.



And a couple of MMA collabs with CK, [livejournal.com profile] yuckie_chan!!! I'm still in seventh heaven that she trusted me with these. Seriously. Arigatou gozaimasu. *bows*

MMA 104. Children's Dinner. Where Nino made me want to make my own pizza toast (I'll do that this Christmas, I promise), Sho did not disappoint, and Ohno was called a liar. DOWNLOAD HERE, but must join first.

*pats Sho-kun* I know you tried your best, and anyone who puts their heart, soul (and concentration) into cooking should - in theory - win. But Nino has the more skillful hands. Sorry.



MMA 107. Another Children's Dinner ep. Where Aiba's carrots are dry, and Ohno's lettuce are pure love. *cackles* And three geniuses share tips on what to do when a girl cries in front of them. (The last answer's pure genius.) DOWNLOAD HERE, but must join first.

*pats Sho-kun* Apologizing is good and gentlemanly, but I dare you to do it Ohno's way. I dare you.

FANCY BEING A BLENDER??? I DO.



So I slept in this morning, and when I woke up, I read Silvia saying BNS released Nakai's appearance on 5LDK and I was like, "WHAAAT!!! THEY WERE WORKING ON IT TOO!?!?!?!" Then I went to the page and saw it was the one I helped out on. *giggles*

See how excited I was about that project? I did not even bother finding out what team it would be under. Like, I thought it would be some subteam focused on 5LDK. So it was a pleasant surprise. When I found out Nakai was on 5LDK, with Joushima (me and my thing for Leaders) I went straight to Sarah and begged (on my virtual knees) to be made to do anything. ANYTHING!! (well, except translate, of course.)

Couldn't take caps coz I haven't downloaded the whole thing yet. (It's HQ, ba~by!) So totally stealing Sarah's cap.



DOWNLOAD HERE. This is, quite possibly, the hardest one I ever worked on. If you think Nakai+Arashi is bad, you should check out Nakai+TOKIO, ESP when it is Nakai telling the stories, instead of the one asking the questions. OMG. They talk aaaaaaaaall over one another....But this was super-funny. And Nakai admitting he's terrified of Arashi amuses me to no end. No wonder he tortures Ohno on the show.

Oh wait. It's Ohno torturing him. Hmm.

I demand Arashi on 5LDK. Now. That'll be, like, the 7th Level of Hell, for a timer but bring it on.

* * * * * * * *

FINALLY watched Twilight.

Two points:

I am glad it was waay better written than the movie.

And nowhere did the line "YOU DAZZLE ME" appear.

Why did Bella look like a vampire?? )

* * * * * * * *

Last Thursday, we had some sort of a seminar-cum-party. It's, like, an Updates seminar for CPAs. Anyway, in the afternoon, there were games and all that, and there's this one game called Pera o Bayong (money or bag) where they ask questions, and groups of people go line up in their answer. Four choices will be given, from A to D, and you go where you think the answer is correct.

I joined.

Luck be my baby. )

Bloody Cars, Tutus, Hours and...

(I'm so bloody post-happy this November. Theories as to why? And this is going to be bloody long. And I'm gonna use the same bloody word before this entry ends. You've been bloody warned)

FIRST. Saw the preview for 24 Season 7. HOLY~~!!!! I am sooooo damn glad it's coming back, although Season 6 is my least favorite of the lot. I get to watch another of the longest days in Jack's life.  Seriously. I need a Machiavellian fix from someone other than myself. And Jack Bauer does it better. And a female president, huh. (Well, if you think about it, Obama isn't the first black American President; it's David Palmer. And this new one on 24 isn't the first female President, it's Caroline Reynolds on Prisonbreak, and she's made of 'dame'. Ohgod, I am getting my fandoms mixed up. What next, Jack Bauer rescuing a Japanese couple on a Nevada roadside and they happen to be after a tiara, and Jack would help them retrieve that tiara, using backdoors and even special favors from CTU?

I'm sick. But I'm excited! Yay for tick-tocks!!! (I mean, I read this: "Once more, 24  kicks off the new season with a four-episode explosion over two consecutive nights...') I'm one happy couch potato. It starts Nov 23 in the US, I'll download it on the 26th. It's my bday; not Ohno's.

NEXT: I received this on the email yesterday, and I conclude: I WAS BORN IN THE BLOODY WRONG COUNTRY.

***********

So, how many of you would like to own a vehicle that Jensen has driven?  Unfortunately, Sam and Dean's Chevy is not for sale. ;)  But, JENSEN's 2004 Range Rover is!!
 
It's not the Impala, but. )

*****

Drama talk.

So I picked up a couple of dramas to watch. Well, more than a couple, but yeah. (Seriously need to get started on Kiva, but that's one series where I opt to download more than a substantial amount and allot an entire weekend for watching. YES.)

Hana Kimi SP...where men in tutus are the funniest thing ever!  )

Seigi no Mikata...where I am glad I am an only child.... )

....Now on to the unfinished ones.

KO-ONE and X-FAMILY...bad idea trying to watch them at the same time...bad, bad, bad.... )
Miss No Good....lots of NGs (no goods)... )
....and an ongoing one.....

Bloody hell...!! It's Bloody good!!!! )

Hmm...

I'm downloading SARS Koizora the series ep5....I miss SARS 'products'. YAY.

And...I swear. I will start EAST OF EDEN. SOON. LIKE, THIS SATURDAY.

Randomly......just recently I watched House Bunny. (Don't ask) My favorite line???

Superfly SUPERNATURAL Edition
(TV Guide Nov 10-16, 2008)
by Sandra Kofler

Hauntings are nothing new for fans of the CW's Supernatural. So when star Jensen Ackles burst into a lip sync-and-dance number to Survivor's fist-pumpin' "Eye of the Tiger" while filming the Ocotober 23 episode, was a ghoulish presence to blame? Try a foolish one.

"It was all Jared's fault!" says Ackles, blaming costar and known prankster Jared Padalecki.

"It was a prank pulled by Jared to see what Jensen would do," confirms director Phil Sgriccia. "The cue was for Jared's character, Sam, to come up and bang on the roof of the car to get Jensen out of his reverie, but Jared, prankster that he is, decided not to." When the cue didn't come, Ackles kept on grooving, jumping out of the car and onto the vehicle's roof to jam his way--air guitar and all--through the song's first minute.

"It just happened," he explains. "They kept [rolling], so I kept going." And thus, a Web star was born.

Supernatural fans saw the intended five-second version during the show, but the full-length clip was shown after the episode, then made its way to YouTube and beyond, garnering over 100,000 views in its first week. Some skeptics still don't buy the scene's spontaneity, citing Ackles' too-smooth moves. And though the actor can't explain his seamless choreoghaphy, Sgriccia is just glad it happened.

"It was a cool moment, and totally genuine," he says. "You don't get those a lot. I only thank the powers above I didn't yell 'Cut.'" So do we. (video can be found at cwtv.com)

BUT. Here's the video. And, just like Ohno, NO I WILL NOT PUT THIS UNDER A CUT.  (damn is this working? or I suck at embedding stuff....>)

 




aahhh...jensen...never lose the (smart)alec(k) in you.....*goes back to Ohno-ing*

EDIT: OMG. I FOUND AN UBER-HQ COPY!!! *loves the fandom* This is soooo gonna be in my iPOD! *off to convert* CONVERTED!!! HERE IN MU.
 
My Beautiful Days has just been shipped yesterday. I am patient. Very patient. I should be. Right?

The OhnoMan of the Opera

Bureaucracy kills.

Let me clarify that.

Bureaucracy ran by rotten characters kills.


On a lighter note, (I still haven't seen SPN 4's Ep1 "Lazarus Rising" and tonight, Ep 2 will be aired. How fail am I as a Jensen fan?) I saw HEROES two-eps already and whoa. They FINALLY found, rather made, a reason for Suresh to lose the shirt. Although, losing his skin was a bit overdoing it?

It's final, An-chan. While you may want Matt Parkman's power, and I said I wanted Peter's, let me change my mind. (Last time I checked, it's supposed to be my prerogative as a girl to do so.) Now, I want CLAIRE's. Creepy as that might sound. Not even Sylar can kill her! How co~ol is that?!

And right now, the delayed telecast of the Emmys is being shown, and I have half an ear and eye to it. AND YES!!! JEREMY PIVEN WON FOR THE 3rd TIME!!! Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series for that funny show Entourage. Yay! He's so deliciously annoying funny.

Anyway. Let's move on.

And the Angel of Music says,  )



...and how fitting is it that I should embed this song on a post about RiidaFail???

Moonlightin' in a place called HERE.



My friend/officemate/uni classmate Majo got married to her long-time boyfriend Mike a couple of weeks ago. Because they couldn't get a long leave from work for a proper honeymoon, they took the previous weekend for a quick getaway. And what do they do?

They buy a book for me.

*Ah. I feel so loved*

I've just started reading the book, but this early I am liking it. This is probably the closest to chick-lit I'm actually going for, and I sometimes even refuse to strictly classify it as such. To be honest, though, the first reason I checked Cecelia Ahern was because she happened to be Nicky Byrne's sister-in-law. Loved her first book P.S. I Love You, then read her two others (Rosie Dunne, If You Could See Me Now). I needed this read. I think I was too Steve Berry-saturated. Lolz.

I've finally caught up with Moonlight.


Remember my cardinal rule about CD singles, and me breaking that rule because of "truth"?
I hold the same for photobooks.

Second post! Told ya.

The wonderful Aki-san wrote up this entry that made me grin and grin endlessly....!!!!! I'm gonna post my fave parts of the show because Sho simply shorted my circuit. (Make of that what you will.) 


Aherm. TFS has this in our work-in-progress list. *screams with glee*
The best part about working about this? I didn't have to twist any translator's arm to work on this, because yanie came back from hiatus and this was the one she wanted to work on immediately!!!! Lucky~

This is image-heavy. Be warned. 



AND!!!

I experimented. I'm not sure if I can continue. I want to, but I'm not sure. lolz.

Tell me what you think.

Ohno talks about....Ferris Wheels. Yes. Ferris Wheels. Translation by mikyoku @ vox. She's so kind to let me, a complete stranger, use her earlier translations.

In RL, gotta run, drop my Prisonbreak box sets over at my pal's (I'm looking to make her a Scofield-convert), then go to the supermarket to stock up on stuff. For the first time in six weeks, I won't go to work on a Saturday. Will come back later to watch Maou ep5, catch up on Iljimae and finish Moonlight. Ah yes. Today, ladies and gents, will be my SATURateDAY. (Unless, I get THE CALL and go off to watch The Mummy 3 instead. Which is highly likely. Oh well. Jet Li? Michelle Yeoh? Brendan Fraser? John Hannah?

I already watched KOIZORA (the film). Yes. I know. You've seen it. Everybody's seen it. I had to follow a system. My downloading system. No bypassing, 'aight?
