mmkay.
I finally got to read "Twilight". And I watched the movie, too. The book was quite a decent read, but the movie was just okay. I don't usually like mainstream entertainment, especially one that is a big deal to boycrazed teengirls, because, you know, it's just.. uhm. You know. Makes you feel so terrifyingly shallow or something. XD It's a bit different from liking Arashi or JE, because in some sense it is still quite a minority fandom, here in the States anyway. But since I had nothing better to do, I finally just gave in and read it.
But anyway, the guy who plays Jasper, Jackson Rathbone or something, is like heavenly hot. I cannot get over the striking resemblance he has with a boy I used to have massive crush on like two years ago. And that Alice chick, whatever her real name is, is so quirky I love her!
Anyway. Satoshi dressed as a girl is the death of me.

birthday congratulatories
To my favorite Johnny boy ever, whom I will still love even if he scores some more nasty headline on yellow tabloid's frontpage, to the one who never ceases to amaze me with his endless triviality and various adorable quirks:
OTANJOUBI OMEDETOU, SATOSHI!!
May you have a prosperous coming year filled with joy, joy, and some more joy. Laugh more and fish all you want and be happy! I'll drink one for you. ;D
Aaaand.. to the funny Kansai man who's always soooo adorable, with or without Yasu, with or without the orange ranger costume :
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MARU-CHAN!!

updates, etc.
Haven't posted here in a while. Not that I write regularly nor does anyone comment, xD, but.
A bunch of updates.
~ Ryuusei no Kizuna... loved first episode, ones following have been quite the disappointment, frankly. I don't know, I was expecting something more comical from Kudokan, but it turned to be quite sentimental.. more like a human drama, not that it's a bad thing, but it was far off from my expectation. And seriously, no one hasn't been getting any action xDDDD I mean c'mon, even like a kiss. I have been waiting impatiently for Mika Nakashima's character and Nino's character to kiss. Haha. Still have hope for the remaining what.. 5 or 6 eps? Hopefully the plot line's picking up. Otherwise, this might just be the first Nino drama I'm disappointed in. (I didn't ever think it's possible, but hey, what do I know.)
~ In relation to Ryuusei, I succeeded in making my first HAYASHI RICE!! Got a fantabulous recipe online, tried it, and was a hit for me and the BF. Basically it's a beef stew thickened with roux, that's all. And the BF loves beef stew so it worked, haha. Next time, reminder to self : get a better quality red wine and add more butter when cooking. :DDDD
~ Got a Nintendo Wii yesterday along with a bunch of games!! We were at Best Buy just wandering around but there was this package deal where they sold the Wii along with a couple of games for a good price. BF couldn't resist. In addition he also brought the Rock Band game. (yes, complete with the drums and guitar and mic). So far we have done 19 songs out of 63. And it's been only a little over 24 hours since we owned the thing. Go figure. :DDDD
~ I kick ass at Wii Bowling. I suck at everything else, pretty much. I've been wondering all my life why I always suck at games. Really. I do pretty well academically but I suck at games, how does that happen?
~ Can NOT wait for Thanksgiving. Mmmm turkey, stuffing, green bean casseroles, and cranberry sauce!! Oh and we're hitting Best Buy at 4 AM the next morning for Black Friday. Yeah, we're SO mainstream.
~ I've been so extraordinarily calm the past couple days, despite the BF's constant attack on me. (frequent verbal abuse due to the major suckery he's been having at work. And I AM the only fucking person he got pissed at. Yes I know, what an asshole, right?) Oh the shit you do in the name of the so-called *mature relationship*.
~ Finished watching a shit load of doramas:
-"Sasaki Fusai no Jingi Naki Tatakai" - Koyuki and Inagaki Goro. Love it! Hilarious and just.. my kind of dorama.
:D
-"Busu no Hitomi ni Koishiteru" - Again, Goro with that comedian chick from the Morisanchuu trio, I think. Or is it
Harisenbon? Don't remember. Either way, it was a hillarious and touchy dorama and I am glad to see that they do
create love story between an ikemen and an obese woman in Japan. So it's not just all those skinny ass airheads
(who annoy the living shit outta me) getting all the screen time.
-"Ikebukuro West Gate Park" - as a Kudo Kankuro dai-fan, I admit it is such a crime to be watching this gem of a
dorama so late into my time in the fandom. No explanation needed. Nagase, Kubozuka Yosuke, Sato Ryuta,
Watanabe Ken, Koyuki, young Pi, Tsumabuki Satoshi, Abe Sadao.. guh. IWGP is awesomeness. Even my BF
loved it as well.
-"Unfair" - hello, where have I been that it was possible I had never heard of Shinohara Ryoko before? This lady is
it, folks. She's such a diva.The classic femme fatale. This is one J-dorama with a feminist twist and I am loving it. I
hate the way doramas sometimes portray women as weak baby girls (I know I know it has a lot to do with culture
difference and all). Plus the plot line is all kinds of fucking amazing. This dorama is the FIRST dorama in which I
couldn't predict the ending. I usually always am able to predict the direction the storyline is going with most
doramas I watched but this one got me. Plus, the oh-so-worthdrooling Eita who's so fucking wonderful and hot, and
Abe Sadao. This is an orgasm in the form of dorama.
-"Anego" - ever since Unfair, I have been wanting to see more of Shinohara Ryoko. So this was her second dorama
I watched despite my initial reservation about it because hello? The male lead is Akanishi and god knows I hate
that manwhore of an idol (no offense meant to any of his fans). I mean yeah, Jin can't act worth shit and it's just
your regular office slash romance dorama. Shinohara Ryoko is the only saving grace here. Srsly. If you have a
buncha time to waste though, and don't really care about plotline quality, it's okay to give it a try.
-"Hanayome wa Yakudoshi" - again, watched for Shinohara Ryoko and I saw Koyama Keichiro is on it and I had
never seen him act before, so. It turned out to be surprisingly touchy and lasting memory-wise. The matriarch
character is truly the one who made the entire show. I even got teared up several times. It is truly sweet and heart-
warming and although it is quite typical, it is still nice to watch.
-"Papa to Musume no Nanokakan" - Aragaki Yui, such a sweetheart. And Shige as the eye candy, so not too
bad for the 1234142342th version of Freaky Friday ripoff.
~ Currently watching : Densha Otoko (soooo cute and full of awwws), Celeb to Binbo Taro (Aya Ueto, you're such a diva), OL Nippon (Abe Sadao kicks ass in the awesomest way possible), and Scandal. My external HD is barely breathing, my laptop is being so funny and slow, and I was offered a new 17-inch screen laptop but I refused. Geez, what the fuck was I thinking.
~ Watched the movie "Maiko Haaaan!!" ehmagawd, I officially pronounce Kudo Kankuro as my god. And my god, I've become such a fan of Abe Sadao. And their band, "Group Tamashii" totally ROCKS!!
~ I rented this movie "The Clique", with Tyra Banks as exec. producer. I'm really not a fan of her nor do I have the fondness for such an overused-themed teenage flick but once in a while it's good to wind down and just be... shallow. :)
Lately I've had several people adding me here. I'm always welcoming new friends, so uhm guys, please feel free to drop a comment in my post once in a while :DDDD I rarely post here and I realize I rarely comment but I do read mostly. :D
Happy early Thanksgiving!
... and that should be it!

fall doramas, et al.
what the hell now, Japan.
sex and the city ripoff much? or even more, desperate housewives? ORZ
first, okada junichi's SP which felt a bit 24-ish to me. and then, code blue (grey's anatomy/house ripoff.. i don't mind so much because i got to see hot!surgeon!yamapi xDDD). now this?
gimme some original, Japanese-y doramas, please.
i don't know, i guess i don't mind so much the idea of being "inspired" by a successful series who made it in hollywood. but i just.. love the classic stuff. gokusen, tiger&dragon, kisarazu cats eye type of stuff, you know? aferall, the whole premise of women striving for sexual liberation and dealing with a bunch of feminism issues is, although still interesting, not fresh anymore. i've seen it already, sex and the city served its purpose well. what else is there.. ABC's cashmere mafia? NBC's lipstick jungle? guess maybe japan's now in its sex and the city booming phrase. pfft. w/e.
but if Japan comes out with their ripoff of gossip girl, i'll be the first in line to watch. xD simply because i can't help but wonder which Johnny's will get the role of chuck bass. hahaha.
anyhow. still, this fall is comin' up with some promising dramas. three of which i'm excited about:
ryuusei no kizuna - written by the fabulous Kudo Kankuro, whose work i love. all of his work. there's none i don't like. seriously. actors: nino, ryo, erika toda. 'nuff said, it'll be explosive. i hope.
room of king. - interesting premise. it sort of felt like it's inspired by reality tv show type of thing. xD and i love anne suzuki.
shoni kyumei - i have to be honest it's for takashi tsukamoto. xD
here's hoping for a bunch of awesome, worth watching fall doramas. on the hollywood front, i'm excited about dirty sexy money, dexter, entourage, and heroes. and maybe grey's anatomy. if it doesn't turn into a crapfest like it has been the past two seasons. i'm starting to loose faith, but since i'm a loyal follower like that, i'll still give it a chance.
on a random note, today we went to a local south asian fair, and i got me a pretty Indian salwar-kameez. traditional Indian attires are so beautiful, colorful, and fascinating. it's similar to the one in the picture, only mine is a long-sleeve top. the color is white-blue with pretty beads. the pants is blue with white wave pattern. gonna wear it for our housewarming party in 2 weeks! also it reminds me, i need to get me a yukata. or kimono! i'm so gonna collect traditional women attire from around the world. (as finance allows. which means it's a lifetime goal.xD)
time for beddy bye, i guess. my stomach's been upset. it might be the samosas i had for dinner. or something else.

[insert other synonym for "random" here]
ah the serious lack of good fanfictions on the internet...
i'm a bored whiny person and it's a saturday night. i should be doing something fun. not scrapping off of jent fanfics trying to find a decent het fanfic. for some reason i feel the strong urge for a het fic fix. preferably code blue. or naruse/shiori of maou. or yasuko/jun of yasuko to kenji. gaah. something good.
but yes as you can probably tell i have no life thus explaining my very lame saturday night activity.
oh well. time for a cigarette.
also, i love self-deprecating blogs. because i am. the effect of reading one is unbelievably tranquilizing.
:)

.. random..
just when i thought they could NEVER possibly get any more adorable, they, yet again, prove me wrong.
in the latest himitsu no arashi-chan, the boys danced to "Love So Sweet" with three elephants as backdancers. GUHHHHH. my heart just melts into a puddle of goo. animals and arashi. i LOVE.
too lazy to cap it. but god. elephants, arashi (minus sho) and Love So Sweet. melting women's hearts? leave it to the Johnnys, they're the pro.
on another note, okada junichi and aoi yuu caught sharing an umbrella after grocery shopping. wow, two of my favorite actors together. sweeeet.
labor day weekend. wonder if i should stop by the local Japanese festival. or should it be the Greek festival? my heart is torn.
oooh and there's family reunion. nice. i'm never good with that sort of thing, but i'll give it my best.
maou tomorrow. oh the anticipation!

Kimutaku as Carrie Bradshaw? Why not. (must-watch)
I-I think my life is complete as of today. xD I watched among the funniest parodies mankind ever produced. Have you ever imagined Kimutaku dressed as Carrie Bradshaw from Sex & The City? And the hilarious Nakai-san as Miranda Hobbes? Yes, the recipe to my happiness is apparently simple - a bunch of JE guys doing parody of an all-time classic. (to me SATC is. xD)
Mitte kudasai !! From SMAPxSMAP this Monday 08/18.
SMAP's Sex & The City parody
Also, credit to Oreiji, cuz that's where I found this awesomeness!! :D
