Out Of Time

Finally I have the time to blog!

Goodness me, I have been in and out of camp for the past 3 weeks with absolutely no time to myself. And I have to stay in camp for the next 2 weeks again.

Just a small thing about NS, I realise that I have been excessively self-centred and overly self-sufficient that I hate teamwork the moment I start on it. I wish I can change a little much faster because I am having field camp starting next Saturday. Bliss.

And one more thing about BeForU, from my sources, I heard that the Shinzen are releasing a new album soon. Hopefully I can update this post by tomorrow.

Anyone going to Sayaka’s concert with me? It is on the 29th of June, 2 weeks after I POP.

Hypocrisy is paramount in camp. Beware.

The End Of NEXT

I can’t believe that the world is so mean to me. Read this :

お知らせです

テーマ：さやかのブログ

大変ご心配をおかけしてしまい本当にすみません。

今もまだ体調不良という事で実家で静養させていただいてます。

ですがまだ症状が思うように回復せず、今後もいつ復帰できるかわからない状態です。

このような先が見えない状態のまま今のお仕事を続けるのはメンバーやスタッフの方々にご迷惑をかけ続けるという事も踏まえ、事務所と話し合った結果芸能活動を引退させていただく事になりました。

復帰を待っていてくださった皆さんにこのようなご報告をしなければいけない事を本当に申し訳なく思います。

ただ最後に私の口からちゃんとお話したいと思いますので、どこかのライブイベントでステージからご報告させていただけるよう事務所の方にお願いしました。

詳細をホームページでお知らせさせていただきますのでよろしくお願いします。

南さやか

Very rough translation

Been very worried about fans and I apologise for any inconvenience caused. I am still in a very bad shape at my family home and recuperating. I am not sure if I can recover fully and return because I have not shown any signs of improvement. Further information regarding this issue will not be released
as retirement plans are still under construction. The final events will be informed by the office. Thank you very much. Sayaka Minami.

With Sayaka leaving BeForU, NEXT is effectively dissolved. Godammit what the heck is happening? And I don’t have the time to trace because I am going to NS tomorrow!!

Nevertheless, I would like thank the NEXT girls for their music in BeForU from 2004-2008, with Sayaka as the last member of NEXT leaving us all. Thank you very much, you will all be missed greatly by us fans.

UPDATE :

There will be a farewell concert on June 29th. Lookie :

Minami Sayaka Retirement Live Event “South Wind”
June, 29th
Yokohama Sunfenix Hall (Arena Sound Hall)
Open 16:30, Start 17:00
Price 3,800 yen

Hopefully I can scrounge sometime out of my NS days to go. Anyway….

有り難うございます, BEFORU NEXT.
Your music will always be in my heart……

Bad Day

Today is one hell of a bad day for me, and come to think of it, this is a rant since the few weeks I have last posted.

Early in the morning, I woke up to cook and got a gas stove blow up in face when I try to light it. Lesson learnt : turn off the gas if you can’t light it for the first time round.

And all the way till night, I have been moving things around and shopping for my NS goods.

Until the end of the day, I went to play DDR and GFDM. THE BLOODY MACHINE HAS TO DISCONNECT WHEN I PASSED STRIKE PARTY!! ON EXT!!! Gakkk!!!

Anyway on the bright side, I finally passed TEARS on Expert. Now leaves to push it to A or above.

I need some sleep. Nights people.

FINALLY!!

FINALLY I GOT THE GODDAMNED TIME TO BLOG!

Goodness I have been quite busy for the past 2 weeks and alot of things have happened.

I didn’t do well for my ‘A’ Levels to get into university. Thus I have to retake.

Also I am unable to disrupt my NS to continue studying, which means that I might not be able to attend University for my whole life.

On a rather irate note, I have been trying very hard to get my computer running smoothly, and seems like the hard disk and the DVD-RW has been fried after 3 years of usage, thus I formatted it. It is a pity to lose alot of photos and such though, but since I am almost 20 now, life must go on and I must not look back to lament.

20 more days left to NS, and soon I will only have time to blog twice or once per week. Hopefully things get better in the next 2 years of my life.

I am off now. Nites people.

Every Struggle

Okay I just got Riyu’s new album Every Struggle. The album is quite nice, so I did a review.

Here you go! And no offensive comments please.

RIYU KOSAKA : EVERY STRUGGLE REVIEW

M.o.n.s.t.e.r’s “FED” opening is pure garbage. But the main song is really nice. The opening is just redundant.Maybe it is just tentacle monsters……..or are the monsters fed wrong stuff? Might be feeding the tentacle monsters garbage made the song’s opening sound like regurgitation. Lucky I didn’t skip the track.And yeah it might be used for Kamen Rider Kiva. It is a pity I never follow tokasatsu shows. I find them lame.

Danzai’s remix at the start is great. But the main part’s drums is a little too heavy at 224kbps at 44khz. Such songs with vagueness and underlaid meanings should not have too pure sounds. The guitar instrumental is finally CLEARER. Goodness I had a hard time with the notes.

Hakushi is lovely. She should have done it with Sayaka and Risa. Better when sung by Risa. I find the format of the song quite alot like GS’s Meteor.

_{I placed it on 4th of my favourite songs after Izayoi, Hatsukoi/Hosoi Kusari and Always/Matenrou, putting down PS to the 5th. It is the 3rd Riyu song that made it to my list of top 10 favourites for J-artists.}

I never liked Doberman. And listening it to it again makes no difference. Sucks.

Memory is so kiddish. And very kawaii. It liveliness is placed on purpose after a hopeless song like Doberman (hopeless as in lacking in that emotion, and to me it is with the other meaning of hopeless).I added it to my list of favourite Riyu songs (which current only contains Hakushi, Platinum Smile and Kokoro no Ato). _{Somehow I seem to draw an opposite to Memories played by Richard Clayderman……}

3D Heart sounds like LOVE SHINE 06. Thank goodness she is still been infected by that insanely cute mindset after Noria left.Yeah and we know when she goes like a rubber duck being squished when she sings like this.

_{Fall in fall in love, (in)to happy happy daze(days)…Naoki you better put this in DDR, Pop N Music and IIDX or I will set killer bunnies on you!}

Platinum Smile, my favourite Riyu song. The pitching and music is just beautiful, too bad the original cover album made her look so emo that I want that bike to run over her.

Kokoro No Ato. The opening for the anime Mokke. I simply love the music, it is like purer version of Danzai.

EASTERN SKY SHOULD BE USED IN GUNDAM 00 OP3 IN SEASON 2!!!! This track is just PERFECT for a Gundam or Code Geass OP. Why can’t we have Gundam songs like this instead of crap like Daybreak’s Bell? SUNRISE YOU LISTENED TO THIS SONG YET? HELOOOOO??

Can we get Rie Sugumiya to sing Sunny The Ride instead for one of Hayate No Gotoku’s OP? Reminds me of one of the songs by An-cafe. Forgot what is the name. Quite nice. It is another “crowd rave” song like Dead Beat.

Every Struggle has quite a sad but beautiful tune. Quite a nice end off for the album.

Quite a nice album. Maybe I should keep following her music.

Just Entertainment

I thought I would just make a short 3 question quiz for people to try out.

FILL IN THE BLANKS 

Sayaka        Miharu        Risa

Use each word only once.

_______ has a bunny.

_______ loves bunnies.

_______ is a bunny.

Post your answers on comments. If you wanted to of course. xD

Pressing Matters

Okay I am not sure about this, but the A levels results should be out this week before the University Open Houses.  I might not have time to blog for the rest of this week, but please stayed tuned peeps.

Signing off now. Nites.

P.S Lockon got killed by Patrick Corswalar? WTF? Nooooooo!!!

Lost My Music

I have been playing Nox these few days and I really miss the old days in my life.

Therefore, here is a song to depict how I am feeling now.

星空見上げ　私だけのヒカリ教えて
あなたはいまどこで　誰といるのでしょう？

楽しくしてるコト思うと　さみしくなって
一緒に観たシネマひとりきりで流す

大好きなひとが遠い
遠すぎて泣きたくなるの
あした目が覚めたら
ほら希望が生まれるかも　Good night!

I still I still I love you!
I’m waiting waiting forever
I still I still I love you!
とまらないのよ　Hi!!

眠りのふちで　ユメがくれる想い出の One day
あなたの言葉には　少しウソがあった

離さないよとキミだけだと
抱きしめたのに
約束がフワリと暗い夜に消えた

大好きなひとよいつも
いつまでも探してしまう
きっと目が覚めても
まだ幻を感じたい　Morning

I lost I lost I lost you!
You’re making making my music
I lost I lost I lost you!
もう逢えないの？　No!

大好きなひとが遠い
遠すぎて泣きたくなるの
あした目が覚めたら
ほら希望が生まれるかも　Good night!

大好きなひとが遠い
遠すぎて泣きたくなるの
きっと目が覚めても
まだ幻を感じたい　Morning

I still I still I love you!
I’m waiting waiting forever
I still I still I love you!
とまらないのよ
I still I still I love you!
I’m waiting waiting forever
I still I still I love you!
また逢えるよね？　ね！！

I am going off to sleep now. Nights.

P.S My fucking Outlook Express is down for 2 fucking months and I am just promoting my company for don’t know what fuck. I wish the boss will get back from NS ASAP.

Writing…..

There isn’t much time for me to write this blog, although I have 5 days off for work.

The time is spent worrying about my A level results. Silly me.

I am going off now. Nites.

Arguments

Things are really getting heated, but I am glad it did.

It certainly brings out how smart and how stupid people are. And I am starting to see the connection between the word “stupid” and “really smart people”.

To the hell with tact. Let’s start a miniature war of words.

P.S Mego did the right thing and voted with her feet! I am glad she is finally willing to stand up for herself.
