I'm actually doing a project on International Marketing right now, but I just feeling like writing something here since I'm stuck at the PEST analysis for my report.

I wished I could watch Snow Prince, right now. After watching some clips and the PV, I'm like dying to watch the movie. Also, Ootsuka Yuuya from Snow Prince Gasshoudan has caught my attention. He's super adorable! >.< Chino too! xD

Next, Hyakushiki needs more Yuruge sessions! Or maybe more outings to be filmed... The latest few episodes are like mostly talking... zZzz

I miss Showa Heisei - most probably because of Yuto and Ryutaro. I re-watched the cooking thingy yesterday and laughed my head off. Ryu is so entertaining to watch, and I really feel like pinching his cheeks... =X

I need more of Kentoooo and Fumaaaa updates as well... I thought that new section on SC will have them everytime, but it turns out that I'm wrong. (T.T) Meanwhile, Uekusa needs to get back on Shounen Club - and do duets with Taiga!

I have been watching alot of old Shounen Clubs episode lately, and I mean full episodes. I used to only watch the HSJ / BI Shadow segments, but now I watch the whole episodes. I'm planning to get all the 2007 & 2008 episodes during my holidays in another 2 weeks time.

Alright, it's time to get back to my PEST analysis.. it's really a pest... =X

Before I forget again, I would like to send my wishes to the following birthday boys.

Nov 29 - Taguchi
Nov 30 - Chinen
Dec 02 - Hikaru
Dec 03 - Taiga

Happy Birthday! And may all your wishes come true!

I've been rather busy lately with my projects, so I might be coming on lesser. I'll still be around so if you have any messages, feel free to send them over. I'll still check my mails everyday. =)

I've just gotten my HSJ 1st Photobook from Kinokuniya.
I must say that I am happy with it because of the quality of the paper and the pictures.
It contains mostly of concert pictures... and an interview section is included along with a few pages titled "MC Pick"

I've scanned and cut out SOME of Keito's pictures. Yes, only Keito's.
Don't bother to ask me to scan the whole book because
1. My scanner sucks is retarded. (Just look at the scans and you will understand why I say that)
2. I'd prefer you buy the photobook and support them.

The staff at Kinokuniya also told me that they are taking orders for the following 2010-2011 calendars:
- KAT-TUN
- NEWS
- Johnny's Jr
- Hey! Say! JUMP
- Kanjani 8

Each of them cost SGD $47.50. The estimated arrival date they put on the piece of pre-order paper is Mid-Mar 2010. =)
You can call them to pre-order now I guess.
I'm thinking of getting the Johnny's Jr and HSJ one...

After a week, I finally finished the last four episodes of <Ryusei no Kizuna>. The ending was super unpredictable, it was a complete twist of plot. I got a feeling the murderer was not the one they keep focusing on, but didn't expected him to be that person... zzz

For some reasons, my butt cannot be stick to the chair while watching <Sad Vacation>. Maybe the show is boring for me, maybe because there's no Johnny's inside to make me feel excited... If they throw in Kento or Fuma, I swear I'd glued my eyes to the screen... zzz...

Speaking of Kento and Fuma, I was hoping that the both of them get some drama roles. Maybe more for Fuma since Kento already appeared in Vampire Boy, Team Batista's SP and some brainy variety show. Fuma should get a drama too!

Meanwhile, I can't wait to get my hands on the HSJ Photobook. Keito's "I Love You" message is making me wanting to kidnap him and hug him... And Yuto is getting cuter everytime I see him on screen. xD Seriously, if they don't release this photobook, I might just switch off my HSJ mood. zZz.

And, is Yabu getting chubbier? (O.o) Takaki is getting more handsome for some reasons. Maybe people who are in love always look more radiant. *coughs*

I want to watch the latest episode of YY JUMPing!!! Currently waiting for someone to post it up...

Dear Santa,

I have been good this year. All I want for Christmas is... Keito.
Maybe Kento too...
Maybe Fuma...
Maybe Yuto...
Maybe Hikaru...
Maybe Ryutaro...
Maybe Hokuto...
Maybe...

OH SANTA, JUST GIVE ME ALL THE JOHNNY GUYS!!! >.<

Sincerely,
aliciaswr

In Duet Dec 09, the HSJ members selected their favorite best 3 Johnny's songs and I listened to most of them to see whom I share the most similar music taste with.  Surprisingly, Yamada, Chinen, Takaki and Inoo's selection scored nearly full marks from me.  Followed closely are Yuto, Keito and Yabu.

So yes, I'm pretty much into Kinki Kids, Arashi and NewS music.  KAT-TUN's songs are great for ringtones.  I seldom listen to T&T, SMAP, TOKIO and V6.  Taking their list, I re-arranged the songs from the ones I liked best to the ones I don't really like.  (The ones in RED are those I haven't listen to before.)

Arashi – Aozora Pedal (Chinen)
Nishikido Ryo – ordinary (Keito)
SMAP – Sotto Kyutto (Yabu)
SMAP – Orange (Inoo/Takaki)
Arashi – Hitomi no naka no Galaxy (Chinen)
Imai Tsubasa – Ikanaide (Daiki)
Kamenashi Kazuya – 1582 (Takaki)
Kinki Kids – Sekaijuu no minna de… (Hikaru)
Kinki Kids – Anniversary (Yamada)
Kinki Kids – Boku no senaka ni hane ga aru (Yamada)
Kinki Kids – Another Christmas (Inoo)
Kinki Kids – Bonnie Butterfly (Takaki)
Kinki Kids – Ai no Katamari (Yamada/Yabu)
Kinki Kids – Gekkou (Yabu)
TOKIO – LOVE YOU ONLY (Ryutaro)
Arashi – Tomadoi nagara (Chinen)
Shuji to Akira – Seishun Amigo (Yuto)
Hey!Say!JUMP – Ultra Music Power (Yuto)
KAT-TUN – SIGNAL (Inoo)
NEWS – Koi no ABO (Hikaru)
SMAP – Fly (Daiki)
Otokogumi – TIME ZONE (Keito)
Tacky & Tsubasa – Yume Monogatari (Yuto)
SMAP – Ganbarimashou (Ryutaro)
Kinki Kids – Rocketman (Hikaru)
V6 – WA ni Natte Odorou (Ryutaro)
Domoto Tsuyoshi – Purity (Keito)
Katori Shingo – Here Is Your Hit (Daiki)

After listening to all those songs, I think I kind of like SMAP.  =X  If anyone has those songs highlighted in red, can you send them to me or direct me to the download?  (Thanks for Selena for the purple uploads.) Thank you in advance.  Other than that, anyone has any good Jap songs to introduce?

And, December's issue of WINK UP rocks.  =)

As I watch some of the livestage performances, I notice that Hokuto seems to space out during performances.  I wonder what's on his mind when he perform.  As he sings, he doesn't really smile much, which gives me the feeling that something is weighing on his mind.  Well, maybe that is his natural actions... Who knows?

The other day, I was watching <<Music Station Super Live 2008>>.  When I saw Misaki, my heart stopped for a moment.  Then I recalled I was watching a 2008 show.  Damn it.  >.<

Damn Misaki, I hate you for leaving JE.  (T.T)  But hating you seems impossible - You are too lovely to be hated.  (>.<)

Meanwhile, I have changed my LJ userpics!  I've decided to have one icon for each person...  It's hard to choose from so many pictures... >.<

I need a dream diary to keep track of my wonderful dreams.

After Shintaro, Kento and friends visited me.  LOL.  However, compared to Shintaro's dream, I can't remember 80% of this dream.  All I remembered was being with Kento on stage as his sister with some other Johnny Juniors.  I think one of them was Hokuto, I don't remember seeing Fuma though.  =/

I remember chanting the names of some of the juniors before I went back to sleep again.  But the only person I remembered is Kento because I was standing on his right side as he was holding the mike saying something.

ARGH.  I should have wrote down what I dreamt of the moment I woke up.  I was too sleepy and went back to sleep.  T.T

Dear Kami-sama, I would love to have such wonderful dreams again tonight.  I can sleep for 24 hours if such good dreams are given to me.  Hahaha.  =X

For the first time in my life, I dreamt of... Shintaro.  O.o

I can't remember how, but we were walking in a shopping centre that looks like Causeway Point.  He just flew back from overseas and we were talking, walking around at the same time.

I remember one part of the conversation that goes like this:

Me: So, how's the filming of Snow Prince?
Shin: It was fun.
Me: Where did you go?
Shin: London, Frankfurt, ...
Me: I see.  Anything you like around here?
Shin: I like that (lime) green shirt, I want to print a shirt that colour.
Me: Oh, you like green?
Shin: Yeap.
Me: I'll print one for you, just call me when you got the design ready.
Shin: Okay!

So, when did I become friends with Shintaro in my dreams?  I bet Ryutaro would be sulking if Shintaro recieves a lime green self-printed shirt from me.  LOL.

Now, I WANT TO WATCH SNOW PRINCE!!!  >.<

Honestly, I'm pretty surprised to have dreamt of Shintaro.  I mean, why not Keito, Yuto, Kento, or Hokuto?

Just came back from a short biking trip around my area and is feeling a little tired.  My pathetic bike needs some serious maintaneince before I get into any serious accidents.  Lol.

Did I tell anyone I really love Halloween?  Well, I don't mean those scary costumes, but I love cute little scary pumpkins.  Yes, I absolutely love Jack' O'Lanterns.  xD  Maybe I'll just randomly shop around for one on Wednesday when I meet my friends for lunch/dinner.  Looking forward to Kuishinbo!

Meanwhile, in <<Hiisana Untenshi ~ Saigo no Yume>>, chibi Yuto makes me cry.  He plays the role of a child with heart disease like his mother.  (>.<)  Someone give Yuto a drama role!  He freaking needs more attention!  (I wonder how many times have I said that...)

I'm itching to watch <<Snow Prince>> too, I wonder whether Singapore cinemas will air it...

This sucks.

Halfway watching Kinpachi Sensei season 8, I discovered a new Johnny to like and then found out that he left the company.  T.T

Kamei Taku, previously a member of JJ Express, acting as Taisho in KS8 (Kinpachi Sensei season 8) is my new found love and... T.T

Damn it.  First Taiyo, then Misaki, and now Taku...  How many heartbreaks do I need to have while chasing after the Johnny's fandom?

Forget it, let me slowly get over him after 6 more episodes.  >.<

I'm currently watching a show titled <<Buta ga Ita Kyoushitsu>>

According to http://eiga.wikia.com/wiki/Buta_ga_Ita_Kyoushitsu, the description of the show goes like this:

Buta ga Ita Kyoushitsu is a 2008 Japanese film directed by Tetsu Maeda. It is based on a documentary which aired on television in 1993 in which a teacher had a class full of students raise a pig with the intention of eventually eating it. The children reacted to the project in different ways, and the disagreements were caught on camera. The film version will repeat the entire scenario without set script, hoping to capture the childrens' natural reactions.

It is a interesting show with an interesting topic.

To eat, or not to eat P-chan (the name they gave the pig)?  That is the question the children faced before their graduation.  The class debated among themselves, there were disagreements, and voting ending in a tie.  During the discussion, some of them asked brilliant questions, some of them spoke through their emotions.

In fact, if I were to answer, I don't even know what to say.

But, I have to admit that this is a show that makes you think.  If we raised dogs, some will say eating dogs is unforgivable.  But, what if that is the last source of food?  Would you still eat them, or continue to let hunger growl at you?


Meanwhile, I realized that blogging seems to cease.  Other than activities in the LJ communities, most people don't seem to blog anymore.  It that a good thing or bad?  Would people eventually get so busy in their lives that they forget to communicate?

Hmmm....
