I found the piano solo here: http://pianobooks.jp/score.php?id=38

Yes, it's Hazuki's actress from Dear Sister! It's a lovely song and I would like to learn how to play it. If I can play this for someone's wedding (or even my own), I'll gladly do it.

I'm serious.

What the heck, an LDH and NTV collaboration project. The ones in red are from Exile Tribe. What the shit, everyone in 3JSB except Naoto, Naoki and Ryuji are involved. Please let there be more. I wish to know what entertainment we'll get.

Yeah, I kinda miss Exile Tamashii, Exile Generation and Hiruzairu. I enjoyed Hiruzairu haha but I want to finish watching all the episodes. So I shall buy the DVDs instead.
My cousin's wedding is coming in one month. The dining area is garden themed.

Pinterest has lots of ideas, as usual. My DIY senses are tingling too.

Aka I better finish up my props or else I won't have time. Ranger takes priority now.

=====

And, well, I gotta agree with Kei, we could bring the costumes we cannot debut on Cosfest to an overseas con. They're light enough too.

That's an idea, haha.

Blue Planet tickets

http://l-tike.com/concert/jsb/

1-tike, I am stalking you. All the last minute sales isn't good for our poor heart. Plus payment is by credit card. Now I'm just tempted to book tickets and lodging now and fly there from Wednesday to the next, and hope I can buy the tickets one week before the show. Otherwise it's just a change in the itinerary without the concert, that's all.

It's in freaking Seibu Prince Dome. Also I plan to apply for leave at least one month before so that nothing can touch me.

It's all about planning.

And yeah, I know now that my holidays are usually in June, September or December. Pick one. If not, I'll fly to New York to find EXPG haha.

Concert schedule: http://www.jsoulb.jp/live/tour.php?id=1000356&utm_content=buffer0e55a&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=buffer

Edit: I don't think I can go. I don't want to go alone. It won't be as fun. I guess I'll just buy the DVDs and their goods and wait for Exile Dome Tour instead. At least I get to see Gun-chan, Naoto, Naoki, Tecchan and Makidai as well. Then we'll all aim for TOW because I really want to enjoy myself with everyone there.

JSB DREAM

http://dinosaurjerk.blogspot.sg/2015/05/lyric-j-soul-brothers-from-exile-tribe.html

GOT THE J.S.B DREAM IT'S ON THE SET

LIKE HELL. I'LL SCREAM IF THEY COME HERE, AND EXCUSE HIRO-SAMA AND THE MANAGEMENT FOR NOT INCLUDING SG IN GENE'S WORLD TOUR.

I had been comforting myself with the thought that I had seen them perform in person at A-Nation SG last year. Let's just say, the experience left an extremely deep impact. I've been hungering for a chance to watch them live. It's that crazy.





Ooo so Matsu once formed a mini practice dance team with Keiji, Tecchan and Naoto. I see.

On a side note, I'm still waiting for my appraisal to be confirmed first, then I will buy the DVDs I want from Amazon.jp, and get an account on ex-m to increase my chances of ticket balloting and to read more blog entries.

I also want to get Gekkan Exile July issue because of the 3JSB cover. OTL And the delicious photos inside.

I've been whining to go on a holiday, and maybe it's irritating, BUT I DO WANT TO GO ON A HOLIDAY. IN AUTUMN IF I MUST.

Happy birthday to Yamashita Kenjirou and Matsushita Yuya!

健ちゃん,優ヤン、お誕生日おめでとう!

Blue Planet Live Tour will kick off on 27 May. All the best, boys! I doubt I can fly over to watch you guys now, considering the recent slew of events, but there will always be other concerts to aim for, and I will definitely buy the Blue Planet DVD.

Remembering A-Nation SG 2014

http://www.popcultureonline.net/nation-singapore-2014-celebrating-japanese-pop-culture/

A-Nation SG! My first time seeing Gene live. QwQ

Ever since, my dream is to watch another LDH live performance before I hit 30. Been aiming for Blue Planet ever since. But heck, so far I've not been successful.

LDH is awesome.

They have talented and hardworking people who love what they do.

I'm a little sensitive to the word passion, because passion means literally sacrificing yourself to do something you really love. But this is what I see in LDH artists. They love music. They love dance. Entertaining fans is merely part of the job. They are allowed to have their own private lives, to date whoever they like, to even think of marriage.

Take Reo - according to him, there is never a day where he's not dancing.

That's passion.

More than that, I like the existence of Nesmith, Elly, Mendy, Likiya and Crystal Kay. They're talented. Promoting cultural mixture is always good. It's so much like what Singapore is in general that I'm really happy to see it elsewhere.

Sidetrack - no country is perfect. There is no utopia. My country has its own flaws as well, but what I'm thankful for is how my teachers raise us to be more tolerant and accepting of each other. Respect has to be earned. No shit. Every time I read about racism, see me roll my eyes. Oh no, it's not because it doesn't happen here - I had racist classmates in secondary school, bunch of assholes - but because I think, if we didn't have a mixture of races and religions, we won't have such a diverse culture.

Food. Music. Clothes. Architecture.

Imagine how boring the world will be.

So yes, back to point, LDH is awesome. I'm glad to have jumped onto this "main bandwagon". And I will continue supporting them.

It could also be because I'm getting older, and my tastes would change to older age groups. Haha.

Musings of the Week 4 - 8 May Edition

When you're living alone, your responsibilities increase tenfold. Housework, weekly groceries, bills. Work. Where will you get the time to do your own stuff, the novelty of making your own costume? Yeah sure, hire a cleaning lady. Your decision, not mine.

So really, go ahead, be the elitist propmaker where one should take pride in making their own props and scoff at others who don't. Sure, I do have my standards, I like my stuff to be as accurate as possible (a trait I share with friends), but I build mine with the intention to throw them away once I clear a shoot. I can't afford the space. If anything, I'd rather just build my stuff out of paper mache. Except it's rather time-consuming (but so therapeutic to stick on layers of torn paper soaked in white glue and water).

I'm at the stage where cosplay isn't that important anymore. I've always known my interest won't last, but still, I'd like to be able to cosplay in the future. Just less frequently, and whichever attracts my interest. I don't do it for a living anyway. I'd also like to attend overseas conventions, with the possibility of bringing some older cosplays which I still keep. In a convention, I care for mobility, not for elaborate details. 

Garo is still on my list.

=====

Ryota's control with the soccer ball is not as good as Omi's.

Akira you ass. What the shit is that smug face XDDDDDDDDDD

J.S.B Dream



THE STUDDED JACKETS.

THE HOODIES.

SUCH ADVERTISING. MUCH SWAG.

WHY IS MEMBERSHIP ONLY AVAILABLE IN JAPAN. YOUR INTERNATIONAL FANS WILL LOVE TO BUY THEM.

Meh, I guess I'll buy those cheap black shirts I saw and paint something on them. It's not like I can wear them here either - weather's too hot. DIY and crafting is therapeutic. I would like to go back to it when my cosplay activities slow down, and slowly fill my wardrobe with upcycled and fandom apparel. I love my fandoms, I am proud to show them off when I wear them outside. Got a problem?

Confessions of vocalists





I did NOT hear this from you, Omi. Naoto Naoki icha icha.

Oh.my.god.

Icha icha means lovey dovey, by the way. Yeah I got that from Naruto. Thank you Kakashi =.=

Drunk Naoto goes nyan nyan (Ken-chan, Omi-chan), drunk Naoki is a kissing monster. How many times have you tried kissing your fellow members, eh mama?

I wish to hear Naoto call Naoki "Naoki-chan" because it'll be damn funny, though it's just fueling the sailing ship hahahaha. Dammit I swear the vocalists ship their leaders.
