Getting to Japan...

2009-03-24T07:43:09Z

Going to Japan then getting a job over there with help from Zoe's sister

vs

Working holiday visa to do smaller, part-time jobs and maybe an internship so I can find a job at the end of the year - visa might take a while to recieve though

vs

Teaching english. I could live with eikaiwa, but never with being an ALT ^^; Some okay-ish jobs online I wanna apply for, but I doubt I'll get them :P

vs

Kenta's dad owns a juku ^^; I'd get free accommodation, but low pay, so it'd be hard to move on from. From Miyagi I think I could get to Tokyo at weekends and job-hunt though...

Is it hard to get internships in Japan in, like, magazines? Or possibly the tourism industry?

Well, first up, finishing this speech for Thursday so I can graduate, then doing a short TESOL course (www.globaltesol.co.nz) - either with one specialisation or three. Wish me luck on getting the speech done.

And LOSING WEIGHT!! Didn't go for a run today OR yesterday, as I say I can't in order to lose weight, then end up spending all my time online talking to Kianachan and surfing mindlessly ^^;

...I'd better pass -o-

Overdue assignments and angry teachers...

2009-02-27T00:42:16Z

Listening to the LMC up LOUD through nice big headphones to try stay awake to finish referencing this assignment. I also moved to a cooler room. It's kind of working - I don't feel like giving up and throwing myself on the teacher's mercy anymore. Only another hour to go -o- Maybe next time I'll remember what no sleep feels like and get it done earlier.

Thank god for visual kei <3 ;P

A funeral's for the living
The dead can't say no goodbyes
What's done is done
What's gone is gone
And in the end, everyone dies.

I wrote it last night - it doesn't really have much meaning. More just a feeling, na

Hisashiburi naaaaaa~~~

2008-03-11T05:07:26Z

Happy birthday to meeeee, happy birthday to meeeee, happy birthday dear Bryonyyyyyy, happy birthday to meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

I just had to sing that XD Well, at-least write it. I wrote it on mixi too XD

I turn 20 >< Kinda scary, but I"ve been wearing lolita/himekei more lately, so acting more adult like, so it's not SO scary. But still...technically an adult ><

To make it a good thing, I'm going drinking in kabukicho later tonight <3 Because i finally can <3 Would be fun to be back at home too though - I would've liked to see my parents. Especially as I know I'll spend all my birthday money on drinking instead of buying anything -o-;;;

Sorry I haven't posted much lately - I've been a bit busy >< I promise I'll try more this year.

P.S. I dunno if Amanda's reading this, but she probably is XD If you are - you were right, I DO like Lucky Star <3

Acrylic nails + nail glue = scary nails of doom >>

2008-01-08T15:15:37Z

...If you make acrylic nails (from rame - the glittery powder - and the type of nails where you don't use a tip, you just sort of build them...) and then try stick something on them with nail glue...nail glue burns them >> Like, it smoked >> And it gets really hot. And sort of melts >> I'm SOOO glad I tried to stick something to the tip, not over my actual nail >> And that the glue didn't burn all the way through.

You'd think they'd write a warning or something.

Or maybe they did >> The instructions for the acrylics are in Japanese, so I don't really know - I didn't bother to translate it >>;;;

...Now to find another way to stick nail decals (is that what you call nail seals?) on. As sticking them on while the acrylic's still wet doesn't work - I just tried.

That's...really creepy >> I'm scared of acrylics now ^^; But not enough to stop using them - they worked way better this time from doing it the way without using tips - I just wish I could find my 3D nail art acrylic kit. I suck at doing designs with it, but practise makes perfect.

Ah well, early day tomorrow. I'd better sleep. See-through nails suck though >> But they're glittery (and pink -o- everyone keeps telling me I suit pink -o-) so they're not too bad.

Goodnight.

Letting you know I'm not dead...-o-...

2007-12-13T05:05:22Z

Sorry for the long time without updates >< I was planning to lately, but my laptop's broken ;_; So I can't post pictures, etc, and as I'm always on my friend's laptop I can't take a long time as she wants it back ^^;

Went to a Gazette live, an An Cafe live, and a small live with random bands (the best being Licker and ガアラ) and the Okayama Vk band RuviaGram, which has broken up now i think. In Okayama. Yay for Okayama <3

I'm also struggling not to buy the babyssb skirt i want >> As it's expensive, and I don't wear lolita enough...but maybe if i had the clothes i would. It's hard cuz the shop's right there, so i can't help but go look ^^;

I'm in Hiroshima atm, til Sunday :) I'm gonna do the touristy stuff :P And I have a friend here, so we're gonna hang out for a while. Doing the touristy-thing alone sucks though ^^; Asking someone to take a picture of you and a friend is fine. Asking someone to take a picture of just you...^^;;;

I update mixi more atm, though my japanese sucks, just to keep in contact with my friends over here so if they can meet me they'll know. Incase anyone else has mixi, http://mixi.jp/show_friend.pl?id=7182553 ←that's me :D

Well, I'd better go now. I promise I'll try update more - and I have good internet now, so upload more too <3 - as soon as I get my laptop bloody fixed!!! Grrr, not cool...

Anyway, see you!!

Edit// It's it funny how you can read something, and something inside you just twangs...like, you realise how little you actually know someone, or you realise that, despite how important they seem to you, it's unlikely you're as important to them. I suppose there's not much use dwelling on it...but it'll make for pretty good poetry when I get round to writing some ;) //Edit

Long time, no see~

2006-12-16T08:57:14Z

Hey! Sorry for the long time no posting >>;;; IPC, my Uni, blocked all the download sites - and seeing what was uploaded but being unable to download depressed me *laughs*. So I sorta avoided livejournal for a while... Then Amanda pointed out that I should post on it, so I decided to >>;;;.

How is everyone? If anyone sees me on AIM, feel free to say hi! I'm off on holiday on Monday, but I'll have net in Japan. Not sure about Scotland yet >>.

Incase anyone's interested, or is in any of these places...

December 18th- Japan, Tokyo.
December 22nd- Scotland, Edinburgh, for one month, one week of which is in Spain, Torrevieja.
January 20th- Back to Tokyo for a month, though one week of it is in Osaka - possibly the last week.

And a dark poem, which I wrote as I'm having trouble writing fast, dark songs. I can only write fast, cute ones ><! I think I've been listening to too much oshare...

I didn't really make a title, so I sorta came up with "The Threshold of Pleasure"

Despair
Darkness
A destruction
Red slashes scoring across my mind
Every touch, another image burnt to memory
Euphoria, the way you writhe beneath me
Lips dripping red – too red, blood red
Did I kiss you?
The silver metal touches your skin again
A silent scream – your voice long ago broke
Trapped beneath me, pinned to the bed
My eyes devour every tormented shudder
A dripping canvas of red and pale, pale skin
Bleeding for me. Only for me.
Your heartbeat flutters, pretty as a caught bird
But everything is better broken, like life
Your tears sparkle on your cheeks, eyes red
You’ll always be mine. Mine forever.
Don’t you know I love you?
Can’t you tell?
I’ll never let you go, let you escape
Your own perfect world of pain
The world I created.

Hmm...I THINK that's all...if there's anything anyone wants me to get them in Japan I probably could in January/February, but I'd probably need the money first as I have none ><!!! Feel free to email me at Liekun@gmail.com. 'Cuz there's always stuff that's hard to find online, or impossible -_-.

Oh, and if anyone has mixi, feel free to add me! I think I'm （ブライオニー）Bryony with the katakana as my last name first, as it shows up on my homepage the other way round, so looks better that way. If anyone's in Japan and wants to meet up, or is going to any lives/knows anything interesting to do, please email me! Especially if you have any idea where I can find out about Tai Chi in Japan >< I have no idea, but mum wants to go as something to do while I'm shopping with friends (Harajuku and Shinjuku and a live with one friend, and Akihabara with another! We're going to a maid cafe <3!) - I think to see if it's different in Japan to what she does.

Anyway, catch up with you all soon! I hope everyone's having a great holidays <3!

ヤッホー！おひさしぶりです！
Mou - been so busy lately. And sick. And changed laptops twice... -_-;;;. But I wrote a poem today! Trying to get back into Roald Dahl style...

Lolita Ni Naru

Once upon a sunlit day

A sweet young girl ran out to play

To Harajuku streets she went

To see the usual weekend event

Her look widened in such delight

As her eyes gazed upon dresses so bright

Full skirts and shoes so high

White shirts with a black punk tie

Her chest was filled with such a longing

Aching with a desire for joining and belonging

Off down Takeshita street she ran

That was when her loli life began

First stop: Closet Child she decided

So up the metal stairs she glided

The cheapest place was always best

To get her started on her quest

Later she could go to Meta

And her clothes’ quality better

And Baby, that was another place

With dresses frilly and covered in lace

Moi-meme-Moitie and Mari’s Rock

MAM’s another more to shock

Gothic feel, with cobweb designs

Black and red, and strong punk lines

Not so innocent, a darker style

To make an amaloli run a mile

However, she felt a lot more sweet

Like a doll, pink and petite

So anyway, back to our girl’s story

Not a lolita dark and gory

She headed off to Closet Child

Her daddy’s visa to use and go wild

A pretty white blouse, with a frilly collar

Not a pretty penny, but a beautiful dollar

A red check jumperskirt so sleek

Delicate and feminine, yet not too meek

A red cardigan and white headdress

Over-the-knee socks, frills without mess

She ran off home to change her clothes

Walking practice in platforms with bows

She couldn’t go to Harajuku yet

You needed brandnames before you met

But round the corner in her hometown

Were more people wearing the lolita crown

She tied her hair up in pigtails

Filed and painted all her nails

Slipped into her new clothes and then

Checked her hair in the mirror again

Perfectly made, and sure to astound

She headed off – onwards bound

With a polite greeting, a bow and smile

She quickly bought more of the lolita style

Eventually in Harajuku she ended

Joining the ranks of lolitas so splendid.

Not quite finished, as such. Still messy, and I need to change a couple of lines. But...yeah. I rather like it so far. Cute, not serious.

And angel's gone, so she's not online right now, and I was just getting back into talking to her every day too ;_;. But I'll be able to later, so it's all okay <3.

Ah well, I suppose i should probably go. And do...something XP. By the way, if anyone wants to talk to me:
Gmail: Liekun@gmail.com
MSN: antiquelolita23cafe@hotmail.com
AIM: Xx Lie XX kun xX

Oooooooh - extra note! Latest addictions! Zwei PV, Dragon. And...dumdaduuuuum...Computer, by Metronome. That PV is LOVE! The guitarist, Fuusuke, is SO CUTE in it! And it's such an addictive song!

<3!

Ja, love you all <3!

Mou - sorry for being all off-and-on lately. I keep having to take my laptop in to Aidian to get MSN put on it, to try get my harddrive working...:P. Luckily dad's getting a laptop soon (second-hand but better than this one - Windows XP, not ME) and I can swap with him! Until then, I can only use my harddrive on OTHER PEOPLE's computers, which means I don't listen to it much. Random craving for Miyavi lately.
Oooh - and I wrote a really random KanonxMiku, and a kinda-of even randomer GacktxMiyavi XPPP. I just felt like the oddness their characters would create.
I should be doing homework, but I'm more watching Vidoll clips on YouTube atm >>;;;. And before it was Miyavi, and PSC... I need to buy some DVD's when I get a job. And some magazines. I might see if any of my friends' parents who live in Tokyo can get the visualive magazines for me *-*.
I suppose I had better go ;_; I want to make a PV request, but considering I can't upload at the moment...*siiiiiighs*. I have a couple of discographies I want to try collect too. Ah well.
Grr, and I need a new haircut. My fringe is starting to trail in my eyes, and if I let it grow past them I'll start tucking it behind my ear like usual.
I'm still writing a VK magazine - one of my classes, Japanese Skills 1B, lets you study however you want. So some of my friends translate manga (I wonder if they knew it would be hard before they started - manga Japanese is really difficult 'cuz it's not dictionary Japanese), and I write a Visual Kei magazine. Except I keep getting behind and not doing my work. And I'm not sure what else to write. And probably most people won't agree with my ideas in it -_-;;;. Easiest way to solve that is not to show anyone *laughs*.

Kyo's waist and hips are *-* (was looking for a full A4 size X-Japan picture, then started looking for Dir En Grey instead. Might just make up a front page out of lots of smaller pictures). Anyone else got any other pictures like this they'd care to share? They all look so slim and gorgeous in this shoot ^-^;;;.
Okay, so, better go now. I'll talk to you later <3
Love ya's!

2006-06-24T03:21:58Z

Heyyyyy. Mou, I keep leaving it ages before posting -_-;;;. What's new...buying a bass guitar ^-^. Not that I can play yet >> but that's okay, 'cuz the guitarist of our band can't play guitar either :P I have an easier job than that, at-least. Especially since I used to play bass and guitar but preferred bass (yet took guitar lessons for ages o.0). Anyway... Room still messy >>;;; need to tidy up... Oh yeah, and I was listening to Gackt's song Redemption, and decided to write poetry (the reason I posted today :P). So, two days ago, I wrote. And MAN do I now suck! I USED to be okay at rhyme, and rhythm. Then I went through a stage of not rhyming, and doing these odd dark monologue things. Then I didn't write for ages. And now I can't very well ;_;. I need to read more Roald Dahl - I LOVE his sense of rhythm.

Despair.

A darkness.

Blood from above

Heaven has fallen

The gates are gone

Blackness abounds.

The skies are raining

Black feathers.

Angels from hell

The demons of night

There is no salvation.

God is gone.

You can only pray

To die before

They catch you.

Redemption

Is now. A myth.

That was probably the best I could come up with -_-. For random gruesomeness you get...

Black and grey

Shading to red

Deep inside

Blood and bone

Torture finds

True soul

Born of pain sorrow

Violent fury

Unleashed

Kill.

Which I DID have on my door until I changed to the first one. And, just for the last line 'cuz I like it...

Her pretty face, and her pretty tears

I fell in love at once.

Her bleach blonde hair, blonde throughout.

So shiny and silky, like a toy

Her silly ways, of rejecting me and playing

That’s when the colour started to fade

I’d make her regret that

She screamed, when I first painted her dark.

But her arm turned a pretty red.

I couldn’t stop, not then, not when I loved her again.

Now she calls me master, and begs and pleads.

I think it’s for more. She’s mine now.

Me and my pretty red ragdoll.

...And not really sure why I'm posting this one, because the middle of it sucks, but I like the last two lines, and the general idea of it :P:

Free as a feather

Tired of being clever

Of being told to be good

To be better if I could

I just want to fly free

Off a cliff, over the sea

Fly down into the shimmering mist

Become non-existent – cease to exist

Incase you couldn't tell they were all written on the same night, probably within an hour, hence why the ideas are the same - they're not the same poem changed or anything, like one person thought -_-;;;. If you want me to post the Redemption one I will (it only really works if you imagine Gackt as singing the word redemption, that kind of feeling to it) but I'm not so keen on the middle of it...

Okay, that was all ^-^. Yes, I write dark poetry (as some of you will remember from ages ago :P).

Random question, does anyone have Vidoll PV's, Wizard PV's, HeaRt PV's, Soroban PV's, Rentrer En Soi PV's, hide PV's, X-Japan PV's...any pretty bands generally, especially anything indies...uploaded to YSI preferably, or else sendspace? As I can't use megaupload or rapidshare. I was just wondering, if anyone had anything already uploaded. If not, it doesn't matter - I'll make a post requesting things soon ^-^.

Ooh - after writing poetry, that night two nights ago, I played an X-Japan clip for Miyuki, who loves X-Japan. And then we got onto watching the ones I had on my ext. harddrive, and then the hide ones (some of which I had NEVER seen before. As in, I downloaded them, then never watched them) which was...good and depressing :P. I've been all the way to Japan to see the hide museum before it closed, and yet I've rarely watched PV's or clips of him. It's kinda too depressing. But yeah, so we watched that, which I now think I should download more of. I love his smile...my mum used to say some people kinda had an X-Factor, or sparkled, or whatever word you want to use. You know, like, they live life hard, to the full, and people are drawn to them. And they have that certain something...and they usually die young. hide had that. Your eyes are drawn to him, ne. Anyway, not quite sure why I'm going on about this except I want to. But yes - I like it (and Miyavi) 'cuz when I watch them I just want to be famous for being myself, not for dressing like a guy in a visual band, or whatever else. I just want to be me.

Oh, and angel? Can we RP some time, the hide one, so I start thinking of RP hide again instead of RL hide? It's less depressing :P.

Okay, well, I should go now - set up some downloads for while I'm gone ^-^ yey (uhuh miracle miracle...)! Off to shower now.

Love ya's!

2006-06-07T09:30:33Z

Ohayo-! o(^-^)/!

^ Ten points if you recognised I copied that style off Bou-kun ^-^.

I posted bribes (basically what I posted here yesterday >>) and requests to Jrock_uploads - I got more Dollis Marry and Poitrine and HeaRt already, so that's good ^-^. I've also decided to make a .mp3 rotation site, since I can now upload, so yaay!

And yaay to mousou_nikki and yamipandora and koinuchan for still remembering me even though they're always so busy (and especially to mousou_nikki 'cuz we're going to swap music, etc, so I catch up a bit >>;;;).

What else...back to IPC tomorrow, so I'll upload then to start my rotation... And join HomuraLove 'cuz Homura are <3!

Met some friends today who I mainly became friends with in the month before going to IPC, the Japanese guys 'cuz the girls weren't at Coastlands (the mall), which was good ^-^. My Japanese has apparently improved ^-^. Ooooh - and one of my friends is going to Japan in August, and will buy me things, so I have to saaave money (and draw maps of exactly where to go in Harajuku and Shinjuku). And I'm SOOO jealous. And I've actually forgotten which her LJ is >>;;; So, umm, if you post here point out it's you?

I think I'm going to have to start either deleting friends who I never talk to, or just grouping my friends, so that I can start reading other people's LJ's again... I really should >>;;;.

But yaay - hyper to be back online properly and back into VK ^-^. Though ZeeK's broken up like they said they would - apparently Natsuki is now in Irokui. I'm SURE I should've known that, but considering I'm actually not too much of a fan of Irokui's sound, only their look, meh. I want to know where Rei (vo.) and Umi (gt.) go ;_;. They were LOVE! Grr. Everyone's breaking up. Change is in the air...*sings to the tune of Love is in the Air*

Okay, well, I'll go now and stop wasting your time, but I'd love some comments if you have time...^-^. Oh, and sorry I haven't been on much Amanda - I can't get my laptop to work from home's net anymore, so I have to use mum's computer >>;;;. No AIM.

Love ya's!

おひさしぶりです！ Long time, no see!

Mou - I was only planning to not be online for much about three weeks, until I started Uni, but then at Uni I was making friends and out at night, etc, etc, and ended up not coming on much at all. And I finally today decided to start properly downloading again and catch up (the internet might not be too fast here, but it's way faster than at home, yaay!) and I found out TODAY that Pierrot announced they were disbanding all the way back in April (I haven't been online much - well, looking at VK much - since about March >>;;;) AND Clavier's breaking up! Noooooo ;_;.

Anyway...yes. So. Anyone miss me? Or should I say REMEMBER me *grins*.

<lj-cut text="Random uploads - machine, homura, Jils, and BLACKJACK. Not much sorry >>;;;">
For randomness, 'cuz I uploaded for a friend, and then thought I may as well upload more (I need to request some things, so will probably use these as bribes)... there woul've been more, but the net started screwing me around, so I stopped >>;;;.

machine - Captain Sonic Tune - 04. Infinity -YSI
焔 (homura)　－　切続　- １）桎1 -megaupload

Jils - A VERSE - 06. Chikai -YSI
BLACKJACK - Tokyo Democracy - aishuu kissa -YSI
I also think aishuu kissa isn't the full name, and for some reason don't have which number it is on the album even though I have the whole album, so you might want to check that - or ask me later when I've checked it to rename it ^-^.
And yes, I was trying to upload Kaze, Kahoru by BLACKJACK when the net kept cancelling on me so I got frustrated and stopped.
Jils was for a friend who asked for the machine song as she couldn't find it, then anything else I thought she might like ^-^;;;.
</lj-cut>

What else...I have a new haircut ^-^ and dye ^-^. Umm, my Japanese is getting better ^-^. I'm jinxed (every time I like someone, they don't like me >>;;;. However, that could just be because I subconsciously like people who don't like me... Or else I just like the pretty boys who look better than me >>;;;).
Hmm, what else... Feel free to IM me anytime ^-^ Xx Lie XX kun xX or Visual Bishounen or...well, any of my SN's that you know, really ^-^;;;.

Oooh - and if you like Homura (Homuler), in the next day or so (hopefully tomorrow) I should get the community for them up and running, so joiiiiin <3 The vocalist, Kayuki (another screenname - KayukiLove) is LOVE <3 Sooo cute...

And I just found out TODAY that Pierrot announced in April that they were disbanding 0.0! THAT's how far behind I am (think, maybe, March time. That's where I stopped >>;;;) and I found out at the same time about Clavier disbanding. NOT COOL DAYO! But yeah - I still have lots of random things, so feel free to request files or something, and I'll see if I have them... I'm debating starting a rotation site. What d'yu think?

*lots of hugs* Love ya's!

Edit: Just noticed I used the wrong kanji for the first song. The correct kanji is 劇薬×切開. Sorry! And I also won't be here for the next day or so probably, so if something's wrong with an upload or something, I'm not intentionally slow getting back to you, I just won't have the internet until then. <3 dayo! /Edit

God, now I'm all stressed. I sent an email, since I finally recieved one, and I'm SO bad at explaining, and at being tactful...and I don't want to hurt her more ;_;. I can understand not talking to me for a while, but I don't want her to get upset if I said something wrong... God, I'm so bad at writing emails ;_; well, not even just emails, just bad at explaining, or making people feel better >>;;;. Especially if it's my fault in the first place...

Other notes: My b'day tomorrow! Cellphone shopping today, yey (uhuh, miracle miracle... Anyone know Say Yeah -Motto Miracle Night- by Morning Musume?)! So mum might be getting me one of those. And dad said he'd get me a lolita dress, so I'm waiting for a place to get back to me about making a custom made one - if they don't soon, I'm going to email them and just ask for a simpler version, or the original one they emailed me about... I love Visible style sleeves <3 But Marble has lovely skirt-parts. I got the blouse I bought online yesterday. As in, I recieved it yesterday >>;;;. Cute! But off-white, so it won't match my skirt TOO well, but meh. I need to wait for my petticoat anyway...

Okay, better go get dressed, etc. And gomen ne if I said the wrong thing in my email...things never come out how I want them to sound, as people look at them from their own point of view, not mine, so it screws up my basic reasoning o(>.<)o. But I love you, ne.

Jaa, love ya's!

Random link: http://shutdown.fc2web.com/00/index.html Have fun dressing a superdollfie in lolita-wear :P. Kinda amusing...<3!

Random link 2: http://home.comcast.net/~ichigo10369/LJpics/oujisama/oujisama.html Kodona/Dandy - just randomly browsing as I suddenly wondered what I'd look like in a top hat, shorts and jacket ; ). Probably not too good XP. Anyway... http://home.comcast.net/~ichigo10369/LJpics/oujisama/oujimaxicimam.jpg One of the models. The male is sooooo pretty *-*. I'm so jealous! We just get...hell, I don't even know who we have in our magazines. But I know I want them all to look like that! So cute... http://home.comcast.net/~ichigo10369/LJpics/oujisama/ouji2.jpg *giggles* That's cute too... http://home.comcast.net/~ichigo10369/LJpics/oujisama/oujikana.jpg And so's that, actually. Kana >.>;;;. I should really get round to looking her up. And I LOVE the cane, though I just can't help thinking of Johnny Depp in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory...

Random link 3: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v372/Lie_kun/Daigo/2005novkera20.jpg My picture of the week for losing weight XP. Him lying on the sofa...whether you like him or not, you have to admit, he has slim thighs and ass 0.0. I waaaaaaant (to look like that >.>;;;)!

Oooh - and Hakuei and O-Jiro are apparently in the next G&L Bible... I want that too XP. Or maybe just scans...not even sure what his current image is. I'll have to catch up in April :P. Just remembered about this as I was looking at my icon and thinking Yoshiki=<3=old-school=<3 XDDD.

Gomen ne - random bitching and details of my life...

2006-02-22T09:40:28Z

Okay, well, I hate to bitch but fuck do I need to, so we'll get to that later : ).
Hmm - got into IPC! Full scholarship (they must give that to, like, ALL NZ'ers *<=kiwi ; )* that want to go XP). So I only have to pay 750 for books, gym, internet (wireless broadband YAAAAY so can't be bothered downloading until then), etc. And 500 bond on my room. And then the first week or four weeks or something of my room payments up front. But yaay! No student loan!

Learning Korean - well, trying to. i got a CD rom but that's hard - I learnt the most from this website, but I'll read it it korean but THINK 'kore, sore, are' in Japanese -_-;;;. And pronounce it in Japanese. I'm getting there though... Wanna re-learn the basics of Spanish too, as I've forgotten them.
Oooh - also downloading more Asami Tohjoh manga lately. I love ones like Indulgent Tyrant or whatever it is, where the seme is a schoolkid (NOT shota) and the uke a teacher. She has the awesomest seme's. Makes me wanna RP an AU with K about a teacher and a student - Sugizo would HAVE to be the teacher. We have a MiyavixSugizo and HakueixSugizo and they're both his kouhai. And he hates it XP. He doesn't like being taken by a kouhai...yet he loves it at the same time. And Miyavi, of-couse, is so flipping arrogant and calls him 'sempai' all the time...XP.
Ne - I'm just getting really interested in all this new stuff as, since I don't wanna download until April when I'll have broadband, I'm kinda not doing much. And kinda getting lonely, as I have Jessie to talk to (a fifth former from last year) but she's usually busy, and the only other people here work, as everyone else has gone off to Uni. So I keep talking to random people on AIM - feel free to IM me if I'm online! I'll just be browsing lolita clothes/shoes/accessories, and you can give me advice...*hopeful*...or yell at me not to talk about it anymore and change the subject to whatever you want. I'm easy!

Hmm...arguing with a friend. I hate doing that. I still don't talk to some friends before I argued with and I hate that too - I really liked one of them... I tend to like calmer people I think - they balance me out. But at the same time...it's all good being treated like a kid and spoilt, but ne, you need friends on an equal too... *sighs* I'm not very good at getting close to people, I don't think. I just get worse XP. If I really like someone like my friend IRL I'll be careful not to argue, but if you get closer than that I turn into such a brat. The way I treat my parents I guess. It's why I think I'll always be single too ; ). Mou... I hate not having people to talk to. I've never been good at that. I should really try it more, as I think it's me telling people everything that gets me in trouble...sometimes I guess staying quiet is better than talking. *siiiighs* I'll learn someday. Mou...gomen ne. It's always the way though - I always like people who don't like me, just because of safety I guess... Interest... I dunno. (And no, I'm not just talking about you - I'm talking about someone I argued with ages ago as-well, well, we didn't really argue I just felt they were never that interested in talking to me, so I never pushed it and we don't talk anymore).
Hmm, I know K will recognise who I'm talking about...I hope no-one else does though. If you think it's you it's highly likely that you're wrong, so don't worry about it ; ).

Mou - I wrote way more than I meant to. But meh, I just needed to ramble and bitch I think. Gomen nasai...
Okay, I'll go upload some pictures of me I took a while ago. I made a photo-story for a friend for valentines day - that was fun! She was my valentine this year too... And I took other random ones. Some on trying to see if you can see emotion in people's eyes - same emotion, different expression. I can't really tell unless my expression is the same as what's in my eyes, but one of my friends apparently can.
Ooooh - random extra! I SOOOO want a pet bird. Probably a Meyer's Parrot. But I can't until I get to Japan after Uni as you can't have pets in your hall of residence. I think you're allowed fish, so I could have a turtle, but meh...
Japanese laptops are fun, but kinda annoying when you want to change something and you can't understand it to do so >.>;;;. And I don't wanna let anyone near my laptop at Uni to change it for me, incase they see a link to a yaoi site or something like that...XP...
Okay...so uploading is slooooow since I'm downloading too...this is why I'm waiting until April -_-. I can't cosplay either - so it'll be just lolita this year, and maybe cosplay Shinya NEXT year. Or before then and just randomly, so that I can cosplay someone else...

PEACE! And my lovely unstraightened hair >.>;;;. Since I've had nothing much to do lately, I tended to just leave it. Oh, and I just noticed, my necklace is actually a really nice circle with celtic knotwork in it, but since I'd just taken pictures leaning over backwards, etc, it's slipped round...

Me! Taken when I was sulking. Ne - Laruku no Hyde - "Lonely, so lonely lonely...cry to the wind!" I LOVE that song! Well, I get it stuck in my head as I listen to that, Ready Steady Go, and Feeling Fine on repeat in the car if I'm in the mood. I should get that look more though - I like it XP. Too many freckles though x_x I don't liiiike. I tried not to tan this summer, so I put suncream on, but all that meant was instead of getting burnt then going back to white, I've tanned and the skin has stayed so I keep my tan ;____;!

Okay - enough random whoring of ME XP.

Mou - I really should try to force myself to act better - I just never see why I can't just be ME! Surely people should like you for who you are... I guess there's limits though -_-;;;. Still...I hate it when I end up not talking to people. Except one girl at my school >.>;;;. I really don't like her. Lucky she's not going down to Palmerston like I am... *siiiiighs* So ne, talk to me again? I promise to act better, or at-least just try not to tell you... That's not to who I'm not speaking to from ages ago, just because I don't particularly feel like they wanna talk to me. Luckily they won't know who that is ^-^. That would be embarrassing >.>;;;. At-least with K i CAN bitch and whine. But anywayyyyyy... I bet I'm gonna get yelled at for this post >.>;;;. Though I TRIED not to give any names or anything! And I had to write ot SOMEWHERE... *sighs* May as well be hung for a sheep as for a lamb...

Smile and be happy! Don't make me post dorky pictures of myself...*threatens amusedly*...
Edit: I hate LJ - I have to come back to edit my lj-cuts every time, as otherwise it posts them as actually the words, not the cut. Grr. XDDD.

Love ya's!

Heyyyy! Gomen ne for disappearing so long! I've been sorting out University, and trying to get a holiday job, etc, etc. Just really unmotivated...mainly because in April I'll have wireless broadband to my laptop, so I'm waiting to download things until then, etc, then spend a week just getting up-to-date with everything XP.

SO, hide_pink is kinda on hold until April, as then I can upload songs and pics, etc, a lot faster (sometimes songs won't even upload for me anymore -_-).

Anyway, I'm going to IPC - International Pacific College. Lots of Japanese people, AWESOME technology, high costs but you get a scholarship to cover most of it, and hopefully one to cover the rest too <3!

Now...I need help...;_;...I know I have lots of Dir En Grey lovers friended, so I was wondering... Could anyone help me with pictures? I need good ones of Shinya's Cage costume, to get the top and hopefully the back? But also if anyone has any scans of his short dress? I have SO much difficulty looking at a picture and actually seeing the costume -_-;;;. I mean, I'd never even noticed he worse a chain belt. The pictures are too dark for me, and I'm not a good enough sewer to see what it looks like... Even drawing by hand would be good (in-fact very useful) so I get the basic shape of the dress, etc... I'm cosplaying him with the straightjacket on ^-^. I know I look nothing like him but I want him to be my first cosplay, as I'm pretty sure he was my first favourite VK'er. >.> Links to parts of similar patterns, anything would be good...I honest have no idea where to start -_-;;;. I coulodn't take screencaps with my version of WMM so I downloaded another programme, so hopefully I'll be able to get those and show them to someone, but copying a dress from a picture is SO hard ;_;. I know the dress will be covered, but I still want it to be as good as I can get it, so that when I take the jacket off... I think I'm kinda okay for the top part, but the bottom still eludes me. Especially the short version of it, which is what I'll be wearing...

Mou - can you tell I'm lost XP. I have pictures, but the trouble is that I can never tell from looking at them what an item of clothing would be like to make.

Yes. /Ramble.

Ummm, anyway...sorry I've been kinda out of it for so long. I'm still trying to find a job, etc, and lose weight (in time for April, both the cosplay and going to Uni), so yeah...I'll try update more >.>;;;

Edit: Okay, so after talking with someone who's cosplayed Cage!Shinya before, I know a lot more now XP. I also managed to screencap it (yaay for MW Snap!) and figure out that he's actually in shorts, not a skirt >.>;;;. As, however, we didn't think the sleeves or PVC would go under the straightjacket, we're not quite sure what I'm going to do for the top half. Either only the top half of the dress, or make the dress too and change to that if I want to take off the jacket >.>;;;. Or invent a random one that matches, but I'm really not so keen... /Edit

Hope everyone's well and has had a great year so far! <3 dayo!

HAPPY NEW YEAR <3! And hide_pink is a new LJ I created for randomness <3!

2005-12-31T23:11:38Z

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

Yes... Happy New Year! >.>;;;....Hope you all have a great time, and work on your resolutions (if you made any - if you're perfectly happy with yourself how you are, I congratulate you!).

Wanna help me with mine? Question: Who do you think has the best body? As in, VK body - VK people only. I like Shinya-sama... But he might be TOO thin. I dunno. Any ideas, anyone?

...I would cosplay that, but my stomach...>.>...bulges are not good XD;;;. yeah - I wanna do a cosplay. By April. I'm currently hung up on Shinya, but...hmm. Not sure >.>;;;. Anyway...

P.S. hide_pink (because hide-pink is a SPECIAL pink, not just any old pink - so I'll wear it). New LJ ^-^. For random VK and other stuff posts, so feel free to browse anytime. Only add if you want it to show up on your friends page though, as I'm not gonna be reading other people's LJ's with it - it's just my space to ramble ^-^.

Okay, well, hope everyone has a good new year, and had a great christmas, and hope to talk to you through the next year too! Keep in touch!

<33333 dayo! Love and Snuggles and Kisses!

...Okay, so who here knows D'erlanger? I have absolutely no idea if there's a community dedicated just for asking questions about various bands (if there's not there damn well should be...hmm...wonder if angel or Anna would like to start one...) so I'm asking here ^-^.

D'erlanger PV: La vie en rose (1989-02-10).

As far as I can tell (which is difficult as it's all I've seen of them, so it could just be someone who looks alike) it's the vocalist making out with the...hmmm...guitarist? But the vocalist's top changes if it is...but his earrings are the same, and headband, and make-up...I would've said it wasn't, except for the fact I then actually watched the WHOLE PV and decided it probably was. Besides, Fu-ki has fanservice with Kiwamu...

Anyway, I got kinda offtopic there. Mainly I was wondering if anyone knows where I can find any information on them? I know that japanese site that tells what members were from and what they moved on to, but it doesn't have any pictures or profiles... Any help, anyone?

If not, doesn't matter - I'll request some soon, I'm just still uploading XD;;;.

What else...oh yes, getting money out tomorrow to give to Kate to take to Japan to buy me things. Next up, getting a map and directions for her XD. And I just realised if she or Mr Tomita bring back a laptop it cuts out $300NZ postage, which makes it cheaper...^^;;;. Anyway - currently leaning towards a Sony VAIO, type F light.

I need to get a playlist up -at-least, a playlist of what bands I want people to add too - oooh! I've seen Celia'xeno around lately! I had to buy their CD - I'm glad people are getting into them now <3. Maybe I should up the CD...>.>...

Okay, well, better go I guess...more random browsing for laptops (and watching D'erlanger XD).

Love ya's!

Okay - a quick MERRY CHRISTMAS <33333!

And in-case any of you like my writing, or were interested, I'm gonna post the second chapter to my An Cafe fic and some little Christmas story things. So sweet you'll drown in them >.>;;;. I just...felt like it *giggles*.

Love you all, ne! And I hope you have a very Merry Christmas!

Love and Kisses! <33333!

Hey <3!

Let's seee...Senor Senora Senorita by Miyavi. Goood! It's got a very different sound to his other things, I find. Rather like he's trying to actually SING properly without his voice breaking. It's an (as usual) addictive song XD. I'm not so keen on Gigpig Boogie...it's just...not that catchy. Would've probably worked better with his usual voice - then you're so addicted listening to him that you don't really register the song or words XD.

TRICK or TREAT. FINALLY downloaded the third The Candy Spooky Theater CD lately. Yatta! TRICK or TREAT is LOVE! It's like Merry Go Round, but slightly calmer. Totally <3 (heart)!

What else...I have a coldsore. So I'm all ewww ;_;.

Oooh - you like? A poem (not by me XD) on English pronunciation...

I take it you already know
Of tough and bough and cough and dough?
Others may stumble, but not you,
On hiccough, thorough, lough and through.
Well done! And now you wish, perhaps,
To know of less familiar traps.
Beware of heard, a dreadful word,
That looks like beard and sounds like bird,
And dead: it's said like bed, not bead -
For goodness sake don't call it 'deed'!
Watch out for meat and great and threat
(They rhyme with suite and straight and debt).
A moth is not a moth in mother,
Nor both in bother, broth in brother,
And here is not a match for there,
Nor dead and fear for bear and pear,
And then there's dose and rose and lose -
Just look them up - and goose and choose,
And cork and work and card and ward,
And font and front and word and sword,
And do and go and thwart and cart -
Come, come, I've hardly made a start!
A dreadful language? Man alive!
I'd mastered it when I was five!

XD - I love that poem, and I love being English too *grins*. And see angel? I TOLD you we spelt hiccup like hiccough! Ummm...if you're American some of the words might be kinda different -_-;;;.

So yes, Senor Senora Senorita stuck in my head, and listening to TRICK or TREAT on repeat. I WOULD upload them for you, but YSI won't let me upload currently ;_;. I think it's because I'm downloading too much (An Cafe torrent - Shikisai Moment DVD. 88% done now. I think it's taken about...two days? Including nights? I'm not sure - something like that. Slooow computer ;_;).

P.S. Which do you think looks cuter? ;_; or ;-;? I actually think the second might be better, though it's kinda harder to tell it's tears...

Anyway, hope everyone's been good ^-^. Sorry for the no-updates-ness lately >.>;;;.

Love ya's! <3!

Heyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! I'm baaaaaaaaaack! Well - technically I need another week's break from the net, as I have a dancing show which I'm not sure of all the dances for as I skipped some classes to study, but yessss...

Link to: My celebratory haircut!

Yaay! But instead of two separate streaks she managed to join the two streaks on my fringe, which looks really odd until you get used to it -_-;;;. So I was going to add a pink-ish streak, but upon suggestion, I might wait until AFTER my dancing show so Cathy doesn't freak XD. All the blue-black's sold out XD. I guess everyone else has the same idea. And I'm not sure if I want to go all purple-black. Sooooo...I'm waiting until later. As I can't use permanent yet anyway, only semi-permanent dye as I had it bleached. But yes, still struggling about the whole 'pink-ish streak' thing. It's apparently 'magenta'. But, as I'm not sure what colour it would turn out in my hair...>.>...and last day of school tomorrow - do NOT want to look awful...I can't decide XD. I might just leave it I think.

Sorry I haven't uploaded anything or done anything yet - I'm still really busy and not online much. Hopefully tomorrow I'll have time to get set up for a while, a couple of hours or so, and try catch up a little on things I've promised to upload, etc (if YSI will let me).

Pictures good enough for you angel? I'll email you some more (if it'll let me. I'll upload then email you the links actually) so you can see how awful it actually looks. I posted the good picture *grins*.

Hope everyone's enjoying themselves <3! BTW, if anyone has any of the things uploaded to oshare_kei a week or so ago...send me? And any RENNY AMY would be LOVE. So would be Devise en Despair, but I doubt anyone has any...>.>;;;... Oh! Or if anyone has a Japanese laptop, as I'm thinking of getting one, so could give me info on the brand they have...

Love ya's!

Edit: Okay. Here -(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v372/Lie_kun/Lie-kun/DigicamWhore163.jpg, http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v372/Lie_kun/Lie-kun/DigicamWhore164.jpg, http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v372/Lie_kun/Lie-kun/DigicamWhore165.jpg)- are photos of me with my hair done with the pink bit. The pink IS streaked all the way up my hair, but it doesn't show up on the brown, only the blonde tip. It DOES look good, right? I think so, but...ah well, you can love me anyway XD. Love ya's! /Edit

DOREMIdan costume pictures please...

2005-11-19T00:12:57Z

Hi! Lie-kun desu...

Mou...I usually bring bribes when I first post in a community, but I really need some information...

Does anyone have any pictures of the vocalist in the costume that's...red knee-length pants, the punk/schoolboy-ish type, with a pink netting skirt overtop, one layer at the front and three at the back, with a hat...it's all I remember sorry ;_;. I REALLY want to know about those pants as, if the one's I've seen are like them, I'll buy them. If not, I'll get white...XD. But I would really love to cosplay that.

Thank you so much for your help!

<3 dayo!

Edit: <.< Okay...wrong place XD. Let's see now...sorry for no uploads today - YSI will NOT work for me ;_;. And I think I'm going to be gone for a week or so - I NEED to study...and being on the computer doesn't help that -_-;;;. What else...did anyone download the indies from oshare_kei? As I can't use YSIGet for the programme they uploaded to, so I'll try later tonight but I BET they'll time out... Okay, I think that's all XD. Wrote an email in Japanese to ask something at visualive and it was so messy -_-;;;. I couldn't think how to say what I wanted, so it's all short sentences. THEN I realised I could have said it in a negative form and said the opposite thing and I would've been able to use full sentences... *sighs* I need practise. If I started a community just for me to translate things for indies bands and make posts of like translated profiles, etc, on the small ones...would anyone be interested? XD I probably will anyway after exams, but I was just wondering... Of-course, I need to figure out how to get the layout for homuralove to work first. Mou... Anyway. Love ya's!/Edit:

lie_kun @ 2005-11-10T13:58:00

2005-11-10T01:11:14Z

I had to upload these for someone, and haven't used them as bribes (yet - will in a day or two). Sorry - only Jyakura currently. I

雀羅 (Jyakura): 愛液で濡れた…下巻 (aieki de nureta... gekan)

01. 最愛のマミー (Saiai no Mamii)

02. 二階ノ闇 (Nikai no Yami)

03. 世界の終わりに鐘が鳴る (Sekai no Owari ni Kane ga Naru)

Yes, I realise that in profile is has the year as 2003, and then a date I added as 2002.something.something. That's because a fansite with their discography listed the second date, the first date is from the rip of their CD. So I dunno. Check it out for yourself if you're that bothered. I'm not going to for a while yet - until I find a more certain fansite (which should be soon - I love the way Jyakura looks and want pictures!) so yes.

Oh, and I'm pretty sure I already linked this here, but as I really can't remember...duraluMin: Wonder Land

*sighs* It was my last day of school yesterday - today we had graduation (not a big ceremony like it sounds like -_-;;;) and tomorrow the prizegiving. Then on to exams. It's...kinda OMG but I'm not really thinking about it. I think the stress of exams or something is getting to me though, as my moods are kinda changeable. As in, changeable like usual with my mum who I argue with anyway, but I'm currently...*sighs* Too hard to explain, na. But email me next time you're online angel - I haven't spoken to you in days.

Well, I may as well go. Can't be bothered reading fanfiction...*giggles* GacktxHyde! I started a RP with Hisa, but then she's had to go out and I'm tired and just...argh. I dunno. Gonna go back to mum's I think. Or shopping first, to buy a pen. Just wondering...does anyone have any BeaU, The Candy Spooky Theater, HenzeL (I have DRAMATiC PARTY), or the REDDISH PV from D'espairsRay? *grins* If you can't be bothered uploading them then don't worry - I'm going to request them this weekend anyway.

Well, have fun everyone <3!

Love and Snuggles!

Mou...I SO need to get homuralove sorted out, but I just don't have the time ;_;. *sighs* About four weeks...then I have summer/Christmas holidays...four weeks...*clings to those words like a lifeline*.

I THINK someone might be kinda annoyed at me for not telling them something. Which is fair enough. So I'm sorry, na *hugs*.

Uploads:

D'espairsRay: Garnet.
01. Garnet
02. oboro no tsuki
03. Subliminal

Lolita23q: ２３区幾何学缶 (sorry, but I don't seem to have changed the filenames to add the romaji at all, and I can't be bothered going to find it. Yell if you need me to and I will!)
01. 極彩式キャッスル
 02. 核酸ＣＨＯ－ＣＯ
 03. うさぎにげる花園

HenzeL: DRAMATiC PARTY (...can anyone tell me WHY they only make the letter i small? Another band does it too, I swear. Is it like, an indies thing? I prefer it like HenzeL, where any letter can be a capital...)
02. SHELLY'S SONG
04. CUTiE PARADE (okay, so the small I looks good in CUTiE, but they need more smaller letters, like for PARADE or SHELLY'S SONG)

jewelry: koakumateki renai ron

DOREMIdan: roulette

Okay - that's my uploads for this weekend. Argh! So annoying - I hate megaupload...no wait, rapidshare...meh, can't remember now. Anyway. I tried to download TWO The Candy Spooky Theater albums - both wouldn't extract the files - and the last song on an ART-SCHOOL albums I downloaded to try wouldn't extract either. Mouuuu...

Anyway - my D'espairsRay discography is ALMOST complete - I need the other song from the Ao demotape, and I need to check I have both versions of songs when there is two, but I might just burn it for my friend anyway and tell her what's missing - she won't bother to download them, or probably even care XD. I'm just a perfectionist like that. Then I can tell her if I find anything wrong with it later...

Anyone feel like uploading random indies that they <3 for me to listen to? Apparently no-one has AlumiLand -_-;;;. Or Wizard, I don't think - tons of people seem to be looking for them. *grins* Always go for what's popular.

Okay, well, I'd better go... I had a party on friday - it was the most I've ever drunk (no, I didn't get to the feeling sick/throwing up stage. I just totally lost my balance, which was fun, and was probably more...open than usual XD).

Anyway... Love ya's!

lie_kun @ 2005-10-30T20:33:00

2005-10-30T07:54:32Z

Hey, hey, hey!

Two parties - they were fun *grins*.

Ayabie: Tsuki Koi
01. Tsuki Koi
02. Ongaku wo Kudaranu

Because I'm in love with the song Tsuki Koi *grins*. Share the love <3!

Umm...not sure what else... About two weeks until exams so, as much as I HATE to say this, I need to kinda get off the net more, and maybe only come on an hour a day (when I don't have dancing) or weekends... As if I don't, I won't GET to uni next year. As I'm currently failing physics and history, and hoping to get enough credits external to add to my internals in maths to get 14 credits... I need 14 from english (which will be easy), 14 from maths (hopefully...I have 9 already...), and 14 from history and physics combined. I have about...6-8 so far. And am failing all my externals in those subjects. The trouble is, I don't have a spare subject, as I do Yr 11 Japanese instead of Yr 13, so those credits can't count towards NCEA. Which is annoying as I like Japanese and the class is too damn easy - I'm aceing it without even studying. Which I need to do actually, to try get into a higher level at uni...>.>...

So yes, that's why I won't be around...feel free to yell if you want something though! Emails always work *grins*. And hopefully next weekend I'll get round to uploading some things for bribes so I can ask for some things (once I get what I have from PANIC*ch and D'espairsRay sorted out and all that).

Okay, well, I think that's all...

Love ya's!
