Post an anonymous comment (or several). It (or they) can be absolutely anything in the world: a confession, your opinion of me/my journal, a rant, lyrics to a song, a secret, some random story you make up off the top of your head... Anything!

Also~ does anyone have any icons of Chicago? Mainly Amos/John C Reilly. Actually even just of John C Reilly but I really love the Mr Cellophane scenes...I've looked around lots and found nothing.

*runs away to study for lesson test tomorrow*
Wish me luck~

Post a picture in my comments of what you think describes me when you think about what/who I am.

Give no written explanation. Just an image.

Post this in your journal and see what images you get.

Anyone have Rosetta Stone?
Merlin: colin & bradley
[info]hanshi_woaini
I saw all three levels of it in Japanese at Office Depot today and thought about it. I've tried the demo at the site but wasn't very impressed. Is the actual software that same thing? Because...I wasn't really learning, I was just memorizing (even though it says that it doesn't deal with memorization). I'm also not sure how well it would work as I wouldn't be writing or translating from Eng -> Japanese or Japanese -> English like I do in class.

Calling all flist for quotes!

In an attempt to get my planner to "support" me through the semester, I have "personalized" it but also I have space above every month and week to put a quote of some sort of inspiration.

So....got any you think I'd like? Song lyrics (either Japanese or translated or both), book quotes, etc... just make sure that they're no longer than one line (I know, that makes it hard, huh)?

Thanks~

I think my iPod is dying. After I charge it, it plays seven songs before the battery is a thin red line (._.) oh noez!!

I find myself running around like Homer Simpson "What do I do? What do I do?"

I think I've had it for two years- I got it for the trip to England.

THSK: Stand By U Japanese/Romaji/Eng lyrics
Merlin: colin & bradley
[info]hanshi_woaini
Translation by: linhkaawaii.livejournal.com

I'm doing this because
a) I want to make things up to THSK/DBSK for not being around and
b) I like having the Japanese and English underneath each other. I have having to scroll around for the line that I'm looking at (or is that just me?)
c) Because I'm learning Japanese with their songs (no, really)
for example:
I know the word ゆうき yuuki means courage from the drama "Mahou Sentai MagiRanger"
I know the particle が ga from Japanese class
and I know the verb ほしい want from my Japanese coach game.
So! While listening to "Begin" I heard the phrase:
ゆうきがほしい I want to have courage
and completely understood it without needing to find a translation.
EPIC WIN.

Note about the kanji: I'm only using the kanji I know. so for the rest of it, hiragana is the way to go. Hope you don't mind?

Note about who sings what: I'm doing this part with help from the video. Since I can't tell who sings when because I'm lame like that.

Note about how I'm breaking up the lines: thanks to the video over at [info]worldvidz I'm following the way that they have it laid out. Hope it's not too confusing.

Happy Birthday, Nino-kun!

Happy Birthday, Nino-kun!

I'm so glad I discovered you and your group Arashi.

You because we're alike [at least I think so?]: we're both older than what we look, game [blue DS, baby!], thin, and are sarcastic. And when we smile....it's amazing. Of course, we have a little language barrier but I'm working on that. And, I can speak/read/write a lot more Japanese than I could a year ago. Not that we'll ever meet but it's nice to know that I'm learning more about Japan and with it, I can relate to you more. Sure, it sounds stalker-ish, but I mean it sincerely. Eventually I'll watch Ryusei no Kizuna. As for your other acting projects: Marathon; Door to Door; Yamada Tarou Monogatari; Sukoshi wa, ongaeshi ga dekitakana; Letters from Iwo Jima ... it's amazing the things you're able to do. I wish you many more happy birthdays to come.

Arashi because, let's face it, you boys got talent. And the way you're all so humble and modest about the whole thing really makes me love you even more. Eventually I'll get around to supporting you boys. But for now YouTube is my source. That's what I get for liking so many artists (in both Korea and Japan). Congrats on the ten years in Sept 15, boys, you deserve it.

Hi, ARASHI. Been a while, huh? I still love you~
I feel so bad this is the only Arashi icon I have to use for this post, lol. Sorry, boys. Yusuke kinda took over the icon-age.

Choices Are Hard to Make
by ~Scarves-Are-Love on deviantART

Found a used copy of The World Ends With You for $18 yesterday when mum dragged me to the mall to get out and walk around. I have a week to turn it back it for a full refund if I don't like it but I don't think that'll happen. Because it's awesome. And I'm good at it. Or at least now, where it's the beginning I'm good. Although that last Noise took a good 30 minutes to beat but whatever. It's nice. But can Square Enix NOT make a main character that isn't as angsty and emo? Seriously. Every main character I've played has been all "....I hate people" thing. Sora not included of course.

Spoilers abound! I'd make the text white but it turns up blue instead?

A lot of people have defriended me lately. I completely understand why. For the past four months I have not replied to comments or to entries so I understand and yet I continue to post which can be frustrating, I bet. This is a time for anyone else to defriend me if you feel the same. I'm sorry for the past couple of months and my great lack of being an LJ Friend let alone a good one.
