I can't believe I'm doing this o.o


I will keep all fangirling public while more personal entries are friends only. This doesn't affect the journal much as about 75% of my entries are about less personal matters, but I digress.
You don't have to comment to add me (because I'm cool and will add you back if you have at least some sort of content on your journal), but you can if you want to ;)

This morning our first customers at work were four teenagers (two girls and two guys), that had apparently stayed all night in some woods and gotten drunk. They had sleeping bags with them and smelled of booze, and one of the girls had her makeup running all over her cheeks. Eww.
As if that wasn't enough, the girl came up to me and asked if I was taken. One of the guys wanted to know. EWWWWWWW. Sorry, but teenage drunkards are not on my list of preferable dating partners *shudder*

But I got off work early since it was so quiet =D Sure, that was about $25 down the drain, but the sun is finally shining after a couple weeks of really strange weather, so I don't mind~

.....and no. Nothing life-changing has happened. Although I'm STILL waiting for my results from Uni of Helsinki >.<; They're supposed to arrive by the 21st, and last year I got my results pretty early. So I went to check out HU's homepage, and they said that they "will mail the results so that they will reach most participants' addresses by the 21st". This means that my results might come LATER. Slowpokes. All the other universities have already sent out their results. Figures that the place I'm applying for sends them last @_@

I was wondering why there was so much noise outside my apartment today, and when I checked through my kitchen window.....SEAGULL BABIES! :3

I was a little worried that they would fall down, though. I mean, they're walking around in those rain water drain -thingies. And the roof is WAY up, it's a 3-storey house. They would die if they fell down T_T But they're so cute! And furry! ♥

EDIT: Okay, livejournal's not allowing me to embed. So here's a link. It's cute, I swear!

EDIT2: I don't want to make a completely new post about this, but I like my new layout 8D Codes from http://milou-veronica.livejournal.com, and banner by me, yay~ Lyrics from a song I translated from Japanese =P (haven't I been productive? lol)
I still need to do something about my profile page, but it's too late for that *yawn* Gotta go and hit the sack. And maybe study tomorrow for that English final. I wonder if I even have all the notes for it....

I'm rewatching all the Adam Lambert performances on American Idol so far....and by god, he's AMAZING ♥ ♥ ♥
All of this long post is me ranting about what a god Adam is and other random Americal Idol -related opinions.....don't read if you're not interested, haha.

Pretty much all AI videos on the internet have been deleted because of copyrights (cue excessive rolling of eyes), but there's this one user on photobucket who has uploaded all of Adam's performances, WITH the intro videos and judges' comments. YAY~~~
http://s593.photobucket.com/albums/tt17/IllusionsLover13/

Watch Mad World. It's amazing. I remember I cried when I was watching Donny Darko (btw, I really want to watch it again, anybody know where I could download it?) and that song came on. I cried again the first time I watched Adam's performance of it. It's amazing.
Black or White was amazing for being the first performance on the big stage. And I have a weak spot for the song. I don't listen to Michael Jackson, but Black or White is GOOD.
Ring of Fire has AWESOME middle-east sounds in it, although the original song is country. I love the long "woooooo" -thingy (I was never good with words) he does towards the end of his performance. Wow. I want an mp3 *has a weakness for mid-eastern music*
Too bad she hasn't uploaded "If I Can't Have You" yet, because that song was genius. So pretty. But I laughed as soon as they showed Paula's expression during the performance! Now that's what you look like when you "melt into a pile of goo", like seriously. I gotta find the video somewhere. EDIT FOUND IT!

I will throw a fit if Allison doesn't get to the finals with him. They're the two people I'm watching the show for. All the others.....not worth watching. Danny has a good voice, but he's really boring otherwise. If I want his voice with a drop of interest, I listen to David Cook. Kris is cute and he has a pretty good voice, but he's not winner material. But Allison....hooboy. She's 17 and has MAD SKILLS. I love her low, raspy voice *is in love* And she's a rocker, so that naturally scores points with me xD

A & A (Allison & Adam) to the finals, all the way! Hopefully. Although, knowing America and it's love for cheese (aka the cheesiness that is Danny), I don't think Allison will make it. Sob.

And btw. THE JUDGES NEED TO STOP TALKING SO MUCH. They're always running short on time etc because Paula rambles on and on. And all those commercial breaks! @_@ One break less and they would make it FINE within the time limit. Really now.

Guys,

Miyavi is coming to Finland again in September!

I just hope the internet will work *jittery* Anyone want to buy me a ticket in case I can't get one? (read: knowing my bad luck I WON'T get a ticket and will cry, so please?)

HAHAHA this remix is awesome xDD


It's like....I'm jamming along to the drums (because we all know jungle drums are love), and then around 2:30 it just....HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA.
If you can't stand DBSK, I would recommend to start listening around....2:00? To get the general feel of the song....and then it changes xDD Oh dear gods, I nearly fell off my chair.

Oh dear gods, is she beautiful or is she beautiful?

I wouldn't mind looking like that, even though the picture is quite heavily photoshopped. When I saw Sophie Ellis-Bextor's face on a Rimmel mascara ad, I was very tempted to buy the product xD I mean, it makes her eyes look phenomenal, why not try it? lol

Also, the wannabe photographer in me squaled VERY LOUD when she saw this. I love how the background is blurred, I love how melancholy he looks in the picture, I love the downcast eyes, the colors, everything ♥ It makes me want to drag people to a studio of sorts and take lots of photos~ hoping that some of them would look presentable

I hate what they're wearing as well as the high-pitched singing in the beginning, but this song is surprisingly catchy O:

I suppose we all know that Asia is a little ahead of the rest of the world in terms of fashion, but I seriously hope all these bright colors (and those hairdos!) won't become popular this or next year. Or EVER.

Gagagaga *o* The Secret Code arrived in the mail today. It looks GOOD, although I wish I wouldn't have gotten a Yunho card. I love him dearly (and his hands are freaking pretty, such long fingers!), but he's still my least favorite member =(

I was checking my post box as usual, and there's this HUGE box waiting for me. And when I look at the details of the contents, it just says "CD, weight 120g". Pfft, yeah right. But ooh, I got a poster as first press priviledge! Too bad I can't hang it up anywhere.

This post is getting weirder by the minute, but I like Changmin's ears (the guy on the right), I think they're cute o.O;;

Now I'm gonna go listen to The Secret Code properly. On a CD-player 8DD~~

EDIT: HAHAHA @ the tracklist
Windows Media Player shows this, when the real tracklist is this. WTF? xD

I just heard this song today, and I love it. It's really soothing, but kind of bittersweet (just the way I like it!). I translated it into English, but it's a lot more poetic in Finnish xD He sings about shadows, but it could be translated as "a part of you stays with me". It just means that a dear friend has left, and although they're not physically here with us, we still carry a part of them in our memories. It's just that the memories can never compare with the real thing, and that's why it's just a shadow. Also, I think "valovuosi" is "light year" in English. I don't really know what else to call it. It refers to a long, loooooooong time (like light years in space are long).

All the worlds
couldn’t ever
tear us apart
Not even light years (never)
You sing into my ear
The north wind whispers
You’re with me day and night
and I miss you more
Only your shadow stays with me

chorus
Although you were with me only for a moment
I’m still with you
Even though the distance is great
You’re near me here as well
Although you were with me only for a moment
I’m still with you
A shadow of you stays with me
I see you in my mind

If I still could, I would want to tell you
how important it is to me
This friendship, neverending
A shadow of you stays with me
A shadow of you stays with me

chorus

A part of you will always be here
Even though you’re so far away
When I’m searching for you, I just close my eyes
And you’re there in front of me

chorus

Even though you were with me only for a moment
I’m still with you
A shadow of you stays with me
I see you in my mind

I actually like a KAT-TUN song O.O;;;
The world is ending. I used to despise Kat-tun. Well, actually....I still only like one song by them, but you know xD

The chorus still makes me cringe a little, and the guy in the hat....he looks bored. The audio shows that he's singing (somewhat) passionately, but the video? He looks like he's falling asleep. So no, not everything is perfect about them. Their English makes me laugh as well, although a couple of lines were actually understandable!
The thing I like the most about the video is the black and white imagery, as well as the slowmotion running. And uh....the dance solos about half-way into the song. SO COOL. *art and dancing geek mode: activate!* I'm sorry. I love songs that have that techno beat and good dancing xD

You're gonna have to make do with imeem, because I couldn't find the PV on youtube. Avex is getting efficient x_x

Why do I feel like I should advertise it at least somewhere? I know I don't have much dbsk fans on my friends list, but it's worth a try right? xD



I'm pretty proud of myself, I've been doing a lot for the forum....the layout header (they actually voted for the headers and mine was the winner....they actually appreciate me playing around on Photoshop *amazed*), this "coming soon" banner, I'm translating their japanese lyrics for the site (really helping me brush up on my japanese! =D)....

Yeah. I'm hoping it'll be big.

Now I gotta go and read that paper on contructivist theory *scurries off*

Please allow me to spazz. PLEASE. Because OH.EM.GEE. *flailspurtguhdies*
Changmin, why so fine? *sob* I didn't think the song was that catchy when I heard the previews.....but listening to the whole thing? AWESOME. Good beat, good rhythm, catchy melody....YES.

Their Engrish is giggle-worthy though. I thought Koreans could pronounce it better than that! Actually, I KNOW they can pronounce better. Tsch guys, you don't have to lower your English pronunciation to Japanese level even though the song's in the language *shakes head*
The title of this post is how I hear them say "survivor", btg (笑). I had to use Ö because I don't think the English alphabet has a letter that fits the sound they make xD

Okay, Laura. Breathe. Like all those sex-tastic pics from their concerts weren't enough (they were pointing fake guns at each other and shot at the audience! How cool is that? ;_;)......

Have you guys ever heard of Vertu? I hadn't, until today. Ida (a friend I've made at school) looked at this one girl talking on the phone and she did a double-take because it seemed like she was talking with a Vertu phone. Those things cost a fortune!

We concluded that the girl must be Russian.

It's still a little strange. Audentes is not a very big university, and it's so new that it hasn't had the time to develop a reputation yet. And yet there are students there that can afford Vertu phones? O.O

We have a carneval to go to today. Empire Carneval, it's some dress-up party at a big restaurant? I don't even know where it is xD The themes are Ancient Roman empire, fairytale heroes and erotica. I'm wearing a army skirt. A ridiculously SHORT skirt. Will that count as erotica ('cause it sure as hell ain't ancient empire or a fairytale hero)? Some odd dude is bound to have a fetish about army brats, lol.

I hope to get lots of pictures of the event (aka pics of people embarrassing themselves >:D), so look forward to it!

EDIT: They took my camera away before I could get into the restaurant! *sob* I took some pics with my phone, but the camera in it sucks, so.....we'll see xD

Btw, I'm surprised I understood this: Laenutatud asjad palume õigeaegselt tagastada. (Please return loaned things uh.... "rightly") AND Hoidke laenutatud asju, ärge neid pahatahtlikult rikkuge. (Don't deliberately break whatever it is that you're loaning)
Because....even though Finnish and Estonian are related as languages, looking at words like that give me a headache, lol. They're just a bunch of letters stringed together to me xD

LM.C.....was totally worth it. They were so adorable! *gushes and squeals*

Uhm. I couldn't find the girl I was supposed to queue with, so I was just all "fuck this" and spent the day in my hotel room xDD Since it was raining and all, I didn't want to get sick. I didn't go there until 7pm, when the doors were supposed to open....and I still stood in line for 1½ hours *shudder* I thought my toes would fall off, they were so frozen! And I totally attribute it to that coldness that I couldn't feel my left foot about 15 minutes into the concert. It was a little strange to try to jump around when all I could feel was this tingling (like, I couldn't feel the shoe, or the floor.....just the tingling) O.o;;

But LM.C definitely gave us a run for our money! They made us jump, scream (my voice is STILL a little hoarse), sing along.....laugh =DD Maya was so cute. The first word he said in his very first MC was "moi" ("hi" in Finnish). Safe to say everyone screamed. Then he repeated the word like 5 times before moving on to "konnichiwa" xDD
For everything else he had a paper, where he read it all. One of the more memorable things was "haluamme mennä muumimaahan" ("we want to go to Moominland", because Japanese love moomins). Then he proceeded to drag an interpreter out and we conversed about aurora borealis, lapland, having fun, how we should go totally crazy since it was their EURO tour final (and they said they would never forget Finland and would love to come back), how we should all get a cold together since it was cold outside and TOO HOT inside, etc....

At the start of their encore they had this.....I dunno, guy in a HUGE mask drink two bottles of Finnish beer x'DDD It was pretty amazing, since they beer just slid down, I suspect the guy had a secret pouch somewhere beneath his uniform.....oh, and best not forget the lollipops they threw at the end, lawl.

But they played Little Fat Man Boy, Rock the LM.C, Sentimental Piggy Romance, LIAR LIAR, 88, Oh my Juliet and Boys & Girls, so I'm a very happy camper =DD


And once again, I don't know why -maybe there's something wrong about how I see them in pictures- but DAMN. Every jrocker I've ever seen live seem to have such a big head O.O Or maybe it's just because they're up on the stage and we're....well, NOT *shrugs*

I'm supposed to read about 80 pages on democracy and economies of the 1960s in the developing countries for tomorrow's class, but I'm feeling lazy =/

And I'm going to Finland tomorrow! *throws confetti* It's going to be a hectic couple of days, but I suppose I'll survive? Sunday is going to kill me though. I promised this girl that I'll go and queue with her at 9am. 9AM. For a show that opens doors at 7PM. In -10C weather? Hooboy *keels over*

The mermaid who fell asleep wakes to a voice of people calling her name. She who obtained light loses "a true figure" as the compensation. A key is necessary to return to "a true figure". It is pirates to have had a key.
She was kept to the bad person without she takes "a key" away from pirates back, and she has a long it, and continuing in happy time although she returned to "a true figure". And she challenges a fight in search of freedom.


I got lots of nice stuff in the mail today. Koda Kumi Black Cherry tour DVD (the quote above is from the booklet of said DVD), Tohoshinki's Bolero -single (which is absolutely awesome, btw. I love the instrumental of Bolero, the rhythm is so nice...and the violins! The piano! *swoon*), and Koda Kumi's new album TRICK. So now I'm not exactly sure if I should watch the Black Cherry DVD before toppling into Dirty Ballroom DVD from TRICK.....or the other way 'round.

Or better yet! Maybe I should postpone watching until evening and finally drag my ass to the immigration bureu so I can register myself as a Tallinn resident. And do my homework, I have a bit of reading to do for tomorrow. Oh yeah, and get me that Estonian phone number......

Bleh, procrastination is a bitch indeed =/

DISTRESS & COMA sounds great (well, from what can gather from that small clip over at gazette_media). I might have to buy the single after all, even though I swore I wouldn't "waste" so much money on small releases like singles and such T_T

But uhm. Also -POP WARNING- DBSK's new single is made by PhrasedDifferently! It's a Danish company that makes songs and then recording companies from all over the world buy them etc. They've done several songs for DBSK like Box in the Ship, Ride On, ZION, Wrong Number.....and now the new single! It's really cool, I swear!

http://www.phraseddifferently.com/ <--click on "writers and producers", and then there's a list of music they've made. Brickwall is on the bottom of page 50.

"Are you even awake? Do you even know what I'm talking about?"
"It's always about playing video games..."
"Makes me want to scream, damn, I'm talking to a brickwall~~"

People are already making assumptions, since it's a guy singing about a guy xDDD And with all the fanservice lately (Changmin staring at Jae (and a fan asking about it. Changmin just defended himself with "I like women!" xDD) and teasing Junsu mercilessly -Junsu even said it's like Changmin's in love with him!).....hooboy.
