Heeeey 8D

First of all, I'm sorry for being absent from DA for so long T___T
Thing is, I've been on an utter and complete art-dry these past weeks. D:
And a lot of things have happened in my life, causing me stress and worry. It's getting better now, but things still are confusing and stressful...

Aaaanyway, here is an update from this past month:

---------------------------------------------------------

First some music news:
I've received the news that Versailles -Philharmonic Quintet- have taken up their recording of the new album, in which they were almost done with when our dear Jasmine You-san passed away on August 9th. guitarist Hizaki will do the bass parts for Jasmine You. I'm so happy that they are continuing!

I've just recently gotten my copy of AN CAFE's new album, BB Parallel World. I LOOOVE IT. My immediate favorite tracks are Let's brand new wave, NYAPPY in the parallel world and alone. However, they are going into a hiatus starting January 2010. I am determined to go to their last live in Japan in January. IF I can afford it. (which actually looks pretty promising )

Lately I have been obsessing over Korean boybands and Korean pop in general. Super Junior,2PM and G-DRAGON are my favorites these days. Especially Super Junior(which is a band consisting of no less than THIRTEEN members. O__O)

-------------------------------------------------------------------

I have gotten three piercings in each ear now My aunt did them for me. But as the holes in my ears are increasing in number, I have found the need for some really cool piercings to put in them XD
On YESASIA.com I actually found the same piercings that Leeteuk and Ryeowook from Super Junior wears! I ordered Ryeowook's, because it was just downright awesome! In time, I might order Leeteuk's too. I also ordered(from another site) a really cool arrow-piercing, which will look sooo cool XD I can't wait to get them.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Man, I really want to move out, and have a place to myself... But I guess living with my family doesn't suck THAT bad. For the time being, it's more convenient, anyway. Especially since I'm saving for my next trip to Japan. Yes, I'm going there again next year, and staying for three months this time ! I found that two weeks wasn't nearly enough time to stay in Japan. Next time I'm also going to visit Kyoto and Oosaka, as well as Tokyo Disneyland, the planetarium and the aquarium in Sunshine 60, the Pokemon Centre, the Ghibli Museum, Shinagawa, Shinjuku and of course the Café Edelweiss (YAOI CAFE 8DDD) in Harajuku. For the time being, my plan is to go alone, but I'm more than willing to bring my friends if they wanna join and can afford it

------------------------------------------------------------------

Oh, and I've managed to stay away from any sweets for two weeks now 8D!! I can't believe how healthy I am. (LOL) I'm also working out regularly, and it's been giving me AMAZING results. I'm so proud of myself!

I miss our wild dancing, ~NorishSophie T___T

I barely just woke up, it's like 3 o'clock in the middle of this beautiful day and I had salad for lunch/breakfast. I bet you were all wondering what I ate for breakfast, yeah...

Well, lately, I've been feeling the instant urge and need to watch all Japanese TVdramas that include my fav actors/idols, such as all of the Johnny's Entertainment boys <3I love them all dearly.
Doramas on my immediate to-do-list are Rescue with Takahisa Masuda, and Yoiko no Mikata with Sakurai Sho... And a bunch of other dramas with NEWS members, Arashi members, KAT TUN members, and Kimura Takuya.
I'm watching Mr. Brain with him in it right now 8D ahahah And the insanely cool thing about that is that when I watch it I ACTUALLY NOW RECOGNIZE PLACES FROM THE DRAMA WHERE I HAVE ACTUALLY BEEN IN TOKYO AND I HAVE ACTUALLY SEEN KIMURA TAKUYA IN REAL LIFE! 8D

Needless to say, today will be filled with Japanese TV dramas. And tea. To keep my urges to eat choccies down. Though I can't promise anything.

I think the reason for my sudden decision to watch a whole bunch of J-doramas came from ~NorishSophie's sending me links to a whole bunch of totally hot pictures of various Johnny's Entertainment boys the minute I woke up. x) THANK YOUUU~ You saved my day!

Now about artwork and future stuffs. I will be posting more fanficcies and fanart and some original art as soon as I just get my life calmed down. Truth is, my head is so filled with so many things that I just can't fit any creativity for artwork in there at this moment. One of the reasons why I am putting my brain into the J-dorama world for the moment XD

Hi, everyone! The time is now 06:27 Norwegian time and me and ~NorishSophie haven't even gone to bed yet! 8D (She is staying at my place for a week~ And we haven't seen each other in a loooong time) We've been watching horror movies and J-rock DVDs and random'ed around on the internet. Then... Wham - I'm Your Man started playing, and naturally, since it's impossible to resist the urge of dancing like a mad chicken with rabies, we did. Cue, awkward dance-moves!!! 8D It was fantastic. I love Wham. George Michael knows how to groove.

Oh, and I'm going to cosplay Elizabeth from Kuroshitsuji on DesuCon this year! (ZOMG yes I'm actually going this year. AND wearing a DRESS. 8D) It's gonna be so awesum~ We're thinking of making a skit and everythinnnn!

/serious moment/
Today me and a lot of other Versailles fans held a memorial for the late bassist Jasmine You. He died on August 9th tragically and sudden. I never thought we'd lose him this early, we all wished for his recovery from his poor health condition, but early morning on August 9th, he left this world. We all pray for his happiness in the next life.
/end serious moment/

IMISSJAPANSOMUCH. And him... T___T ahh...

So I'm back in Europe after 15 INDESCRIBABLY FANTASTIC days in Tokyo, Japan!!!!!!!!!!!
No one can ever comprehend how happy and blessed I feel after this trip. My life has changed on this trip. Everyone has been so welcoming and helpful, all the scenery was so beautiful, and I'm so grateful for all the wonderful individuals I have met during this time! I am also so very grateful for all my family and friends who have helped me and supported me(spiritually and financially) I love you all! You have made me the happiest I have ever been.

I will post a quick summary of all the days when I get home to Norway and after relaxing a bit. But damn, these days have been just amazing!

And I have realized that I have never experienced love before this trip. I am so in love! It's a wonderful feeling!!

... Is AMAZING! The weather is so hot, it's like 30 degrees Celcius even when it's raining!! XD Luckily all of the stores and the hotels has really great air condition. When we first arrived I managed to get us lost in Ikebukuro station XD Lucjily my friend Yuki came and saved us! He guided us all the way to the hotel and took us to our first meal in Japan! Tsukemen! (he even paid it *w*)
Yesterday we managed to figure out the way to the station and which train to take to get to Harajuku(I had to ask someone in Japanese! XD) We shopped a lot, and I found a new bra, three gorgeous tops and vests! I also saw a drop dead gorgeous bunny-jacket and a matching skirt, I tried it on, and it looked so F-ing cool on me!!!!! O_O It was rather expensive, though(but still, only about 1500 NOK. LOL) so I decided to wait a few days to buy it.
Today we were out shopping in Harajuku again. Today I bought as lot of new clothes! Two white dresses(though I need somethig underneath them, cuz' they'e VERY see-through. XDD) another bra(omg, I'm a size E in Japan in bras!! O_O I feel suddenly sexy!) and some gifts~
Everyone in the shops are so nice and polite, and I've REALLY been able to practise my Japanese!! It's so much fun that I can actually understand what they are saying and they understand me! The only thing about the clothing sizes in Japan is that there's really few pants/skirts that can fit my huge hips! XD ahah
Though I'm a size M in a lot of tops and sweathers. ^^ I'm still looking for a really cute denim skirt in my size!! I've seen a lot of those, but they are all too small D: I want something cute to wear for my date on the day after tomorrow x333
I really love those 24hour convenience stores!! <3 I'm going there tomorrow to buy pocky! <3 8D
Oh, and in Harajuku there are SO MANY Idol stores, where you can buy posters, pictures, cards, keychains, buttons etc with all kinds of Japanese stars and idols! I found Arashi, HEY!SAY!JUMP!, NEWS, Gackt, and TEGOMASS *w* ahh~~~~ I still need to find a place where they sell CDs. And I'm going to Sex Pot ReVeNGe and Moi Meme Motie. We didn't find those stores when we were in Harajuku. xD But we're going there more times. Several more. XD
And there's so much J-rock stuff!!! In Harajuku station the walls are full of huge posters of GAZETTE!! 8DD

I'll update on my stay here in Japan soon~~
