my favorite music (1)

(in J-POP)
Ah, I like Utada Hikaru so much!
She's so cute, and has such an amazing voice. Not only that, but melodically I think she's one of the best singer ever.

It's been like 8 years since I first heard her, and I just can't get the same songs I heard that time out of my head even today! (especially when you haven't heard her in a while...)

The thing is, I had listened to her very much, but I had never seen any video of her so I didn't know how cute she was! And man she's cute!><
There's just something different about Japanese girls who have lived abroad, they just look even more beautiful than regular-incredibly-beautiful ones^^ (in my opinion anyway).

These are some her vids (the ones I like the best). She even did a song for a pepsi commercial! what a waste><

TOEIC

I'll be taking the TOEIC this month. RAKUTEN makes everyone take it before starting working...
It should be easy^^ I (think I) speak English to a decent level, and in all the other English tests I've taken I've been in the best scores.
The thing is, I have to take in "Kyouai-gakuen Maebashi International University"... where the heck is that?><
Apparently takes about 30mins by train, and it's a bit far from the station... omg, and it's in the morning!! I woke up at 1:00pm today! (and just because I had to go to the lab!) so I don't know if I should stay up all night or have it with the 3 hrs of sleep I'd probably have if I decide to sleep.

Whatever, I should do OK anyways.

Tomorrow I have two girls students!! yeah!!!
But I'm probably gonna have at least one switched with some other teacher's dude-student>< I've grown used to this damn pattern lol.

Lately I can't get this song off my head... the intro is so good, and hikki is so cute!

ameblo annoys me

ameba's ameblo (blog site) is so annoying...

All RSS feds won't show images (for some referrer check they do, why the hell would you add a RSS feed if you don't plan to open it for the world, or at least popular reader sites for god's sake...).

But I guess that's also because copyright laws are too hard in Japan too.

As a FSF (Free Software Fundation) and GPL supporter, I have my beliefs about copyrighting (like, too much, is definitely wrong).

But they could at least, show the "computer" address for a blog when accessing a "cell phone" address with a computer... it just shows a damn error page!

Anyway, this is how the address looks for a cell phone:

http://m.ameba.jp/m/blogTop.do?unm=SOME_ID

This is for computers:

http://ameblo.jp/SOME_ID

where obviously SOME_ID is the ID of the person's blog.

And do something about your RSS feeds!

being shy with girls

The other day I went to the Rotary's Christmas party.

There were so some exchange student who got back from the states (obviously Japanese students). And between them, there was an incredible beautiful girl ( a JK!) who although didn't have anything prepared (many students prepared songs, dancing and stuffs), I had enough by only looking at her.

She was so close to me, but I really couldn't talk to her at all. I hate it when that happens. I wonder if I can do anything about my shyness to pretty girls.

I mean, with chinese girls, I can talk however I want, practically because I don't respect them/see them as beautiful girls most of the time. But when it comes to a beautiful Japanese girl, I'm totally lost... Maybe I just worship Japanese girls too much or something.

It just feels horrible when you want to talk to someone that bad, and end up not even saying hi and going back home.
