Tuesday Notes…
Things I’ve now learned, having been away from the internet for 2.5 days….
-The summer anime season’s already started? Gee, I had no idea.
-Kanbe Miyuki is now dead. Jeebus, she’s the same age as me T_T
-WaiWai is gone. Heck, I loved all that trashy gossip. Didn’t change my perception of Japan one bit (as in I always suspected it was a cultural shithole anyway).
-Ketsumeishi, GReeeeN and Ayaka’s new albums all leaked. Unfortunately they’re not that good - so much for that three-way battle for the No.1 spot then, I really don’t care who gets it now. In terms of quality, I’d rate it GReeeeN>Ketsume>Ayaka, but I’d place my money on Ketsumeishi to win.
-Kitamura Eri’s single has gotten a name. REALIZE, it’s called. She talked about it a bit on ChoRaji yesterday - that she’s already recorded the songs and shot the photos for the sleeve. And she says that REALIZE’s in a musical genre that she doesn’t really like…great! Lantis calling the shots then…I’m starting to worry that it’s going to turn into some polka/country hybrid.
-New Sakakibara Yui album!!…wait, King Records/Starchild are now marketing & distributing it (with her original company LOVExTRAX still involved) so unsurprisingly, neither Koi no Honoo (5pb./Media Factory) nor Koisuru Kioku (Geneon) are on JOKER. I’m happy that Till I can see you again and Einsatz are on it, but 10th September is a loooong way away. Her official site is surprisingly muted about the release, no sexy belly-baring pics this time around then?
-I totally forgot to order Minorin’s live DVD, hah! Anyway, I’m neither desperate to get my hands on it ASAP nor am I willing to pay the exorbitant shipping fees so I’ll just wait for the next time I pick up some J-indie albums. Besides, I think it’s better that I stop buying all this pointless stuff so I can eat decent lunches and maybe buy some petrol for the car or something…
Other Boring Rants:
My fellow Sabahans are officially idiots. What’s with all these stupid SMS rumours causing KK people to push the panic button all the time? I had an amusing time watching the cars queueing for petrol from my office window around 3pm, but come 6pm… I had to restrain myself from shouting expletives at all the retards blocking the roads on my way home.
I didn’t finish Ninja Gaiden after all >_> but I did finish Breath Toiki wa Akaneiro. It was over before I realised… I just wanted to hear what stupid song Noto Mamiko’s character would be singing at the end >_> The minigames were both amusing & annoying, I laughed everytime I tried to whistle the silly tune and kept failing the tasks, lol. I liked the balloon-blowing one (blow into mic & press L when it reaches correct size), and hated the bus parking one (whistle at certain intervals to get the buses to line up), grrr. Seriously, if it wasn’t because I had gotten bored of all the other games I had with me I wouldn’t have played the damn thing. Breath had a plot thinner than a tissue paper flattened by a gorilla’s buttock, which I believe involved two emo kids, a flute, some soap bubbles, breathing on a girl’s boobs and lots of dreadful curry.
On the other hand, I find Soul Bubbles pretty endearing ^^;;
Uh…disturbing lack of images in this post. Have a Minorin one with glasses (I personally think she looks crap in them)…
Or maybe one of Kitamura Eri…
…er, I’ll probably get back to regular blogging soon. I think.

“My fellow Sabahans are officially idiots.”
I’m not the slightest bit surprised if people still think we live in trees. Unfortunately, many of us tend to hang on to the “kiasu” type of mentality too much when it comes to risks. It has always been rumors > official confirmation. Hmm… Once Warisan Square is flourishing, should someone spark a rumor that Centrepoint is undergoing plans to be demolished? I’d like to see the reaction. Probably not a big deal compared to the uproar caused by fuel price hikes.
Oh, and I miss WaiWai too. (;_; )

Indeed..alot of things happened while you are away and Kanbe Miyuki’s death is totally shocking…I mean….sheesh….so young and so pretty and …dead…sigh…what a waste. And I wonder what will be included in Sakakibara Yui’s new album’s first press (if they decided to have one in the first place). I managed to persuade my friend to buy that album lol.
Btw, how can you actually blow into your DS continuously? The last time I tried to do that in Mario Kart I got a headache and my mouth aches from that constant huffing and puffing XD. Hmm..now that you’re bored with the game…please kindly send them to me so that I can try them too
And last but not least…the last two pictures is really LOL…
I have a hard time believing it’s Minorin….yeah..it really looked crappy…one look and she reminds me of Tokitou Ami >.< …I’m just gonna use the Minorin DVD I ordered to wash away this image…urgh…
And Kitamura Eri’s picture…I swear I thought she was nosebleeding when I first glanced that picture XD.
Hmm..enough of stupid comments…I gotta go to work already. XD

lol, those are some really big buttons for A, B, and C. The game creators must think their audience has dreadful accuracy with their styluses. -_-

LOL @ Seigura’s Love Megane. You know, I had high hopes on that (like, megane-office-lady-Minorin).. but then I was like.. D: (I mean, bartender & pool table! wtf)
Speaking of forgetting things, I totally forgot Slayers Megumix too, and now the 1st press is gone -_-; was too excited with Makkun’s tribute album.

Lots of ppl do think we live in trees. Like this hoity-toity KLite I knew who announced that she was surprised that we had shopping malls in KK. I’m like, duhhh. Do you think we still wear loincloths & hunt for our own food?
>townberry
How do I blow my DS? Er, I dunno…just inhale and exhale? Seemed simple enough for me, my only problem was that I couldn’t stop laughing. You can ‘get’ the game easily if you’ve got my setup (Hint: DS + flash card).
And Minorin’s LOVE MEGANE was absolutely the worst one in the series so far.

I had a teacher from Sarawak once who told us when she landed in KL, somebody greeted her with “Welcome to Malaysia!” Err, yea…
That’s Minorin?? Meganekko 4tl…

Lol…okay so you’re using flash card….I should really pressure my sister to do something about it then…stupid cartridge costing me too much already.. and lol I don’t blame those Sabahans panicking because of that SMS…a full tank in a 1.3 Proton Saga is already costing RM110 roughly. The hike has drove everyone to some paranoid state =.=

*sticks nose in air* I find the megane!Minorin pic to be hawt. But then I’m a big glasses-wearing!person (meganekko sounds pedo for me…=\) lover so~ *shrugs*
