Weird. At least at the beam of 26th years living, I am getting more down to earth.
Let tears run dry, let laughters bring the roof down. I will live each day as it is. Happy birthday pretty me. Things will change for the better.

Sudden urge for art…
Don't know what happened. All the pretty arts people created are giving me a warm feeling in my heart. And I yearned for more. And even wanting to create myself.
Weird. At least at the beam of 26th years living, I am getting more down to earth.
Let tears run dry, let laughters bring the roof down. I will live each day as it is. Happy birthday pretty me. Things will change for the better.

Osaka, my love for you will never die. <3
Uploading some mobile photos for preview. I love you Osaka. But I decided not to miss you anymore.
Air Asia - true Asian spirit
Flights are always memorable when you get great smiles and greetings. Of course, all airlines do their best to serve their customers well enough to use their service again.
Air asia is truly one of a kind. Some people had great experiences - like me; however, some people doesn't. Maybe I prepare myself well, so that things go a little bit smoother. I've seen women yelling at the baggage drop counters one time leaving the country, one time returning. Typical single sided conversation like 'you are so rude! I am your customer! I wanna see your manager!' while the other party remained silent to savor their dignity.
What went wrong? I mean it's hard enough already on the service line. You are sure that when you complain about someone who is struggling to serve you right, he/she is cursing you hard in all sorts of languages sometimes with a smile on their faces.
For a budget price, Air Asia deserve an applause.

Time to chase. Time to change. Second round.
6 months from today.
June 13, 2012 will be the dead line.
Give myself another chance to chase.
Be the person I wanna be.
Do the things I wanna do.
It's time to throw away old things, old habits, old favorites.
Adopting a brand new possibility.
Ready steady let's go!
Bye bye beer, alcohol, sweets and meat.
Bye bye addiction to everything nice on the planet.
Just for 6 months.
I will have you all back in no time.
For our future.
For our people.
Rock n roll will go on.
Changing its shell to a new form.

Love is about giving, not receiving.
When we were younger,
maybe love is about sharing,
maybe love is about giving and getting something back in return.
It's just like you give someone a gift in exchange of a gift from them.
When you start to grow up and experience more love,
at some point of life you will realize
most of the time love is about sharing, and giving,
and not expecting to take anything back in return.
You just wanna give and give, and
that is when you feel contented by giving and not by receiving.
It doesn't matter what kind of love that is.
Temporary.
Permanent.
Friends.
Family.
Lovers.
Love makes the world goes round and round.
Let's be true to ourselves.
Stay Real.
Stay Happy.

Jewels - Satisfied
If you love somebody
You better let it out
Don't hold it back
While you're trying to figure it out
Don't be timid
Don't be afraid to hurt
Run toward the flame
Run toward the fire
Hold on for all your worth
Cause the only real pain a heart can ever know
Is the sorrow of regret
When you don't let your feelings show
So did you say it
Did you mean it
Did you lay it on the line
Did you make it count
Did you look 'em in the eye
Did they feel it
Did you say it in time
Did you say it out loud
'cause if you did hun
Then you lived some
That feeling inside
That's called satisfied
Busy people walking by
Can't help but worry some
With so many things to do
So little love gets done
Empty hearts everywhere
Drowning but dying of thirst
If you want love
It's not that tough
Start by giving it first
It's so easy to give
Baby can't you see
Just close your eyes open your heart
And do what comes naturally
Well did you say it
Did you mean it
Did you lay it on the line
Did you make it count
Did you look 'em in the eye
Did they feel it
Did you say it in time
Did you say it out loud
'cause if you did hun
Then you lived some
That feeling inside
That's called satisfied
Horses are built to run
The sun is meant to shine above
Flowers are made to bloom
And then there's us
We were born to love
If you love somebody
You better let it out
Don't hold it back
While you're trying to figure it out
Don't be timid
Don't be afraid to hurt
Run toward the flame
Run toward the fire
Hold on for all your worth
Cause the only real pain a heart can ever know
Is the sorrow of regret
When you don't let your feelings show
So did you say it
Did you mean it
Did you lay it on the line
Did you make it count
Did you look 'em in the eye
Did they feel it
Did you say it in time
Did you say it out loud
'cause if you did hun
Then you lived some
That feeling inside
That's called satisfied
Busy people walking by
Can't help but worry some
With so many things to do
So little love gets done
Empty hearts everywhere
Drowning but dying of thirst
If you want love
It's not that tough
Start by giving it first
It's so easy to give
Baby can't you see
Just close your eyes open your heart
And do what comes naturally
Well did you say it
Did you mean it
Did you lay it on the line
Did you make it count

Did they feel it
Did you say it in time

We were born to love
Now I understood the meaning of this song. People who are not truthful with their feelings, I hope they don't suffer too much. Many times things are not straightforward and could be confusing. Feelings are sensitive, sometimes make a childish game.
But maybe you are like me. We hate sticky human relationships.
And maybe you are like me. We wanna draw an end to it.
Also maybe you are like me. We feel stupid after that.
So maybe you are like me. We feel good when everything is over and done with.
We can start afresh and look forward.
Don't get entangled. With anything. We will be free then.
Sayounara Osaka. This time I shall return, full-heartedly, to my hometown.
You will remain a beautiful city who has a special place in my heart.
Thanks for letting me meeting all the marvelous people who live in this city.
This experience is one of a kind.
Chapter close.
Bliss.

Don't wait until its too late...
Family issues... bah... who doesn't have? I bet anyone who uses "google.com/yahoo.com/facebook.com/youtube.com" has their own version of their family issues... Can't talk to your parents? Always fighting with your siblings? Nobody really cares about you and what you are doing? Parents refuse to listen to you and force you doing things you don't like? Parents fighting a lot? Or in the adult world, the version goes, fighting with your siblings to get your parents' money? Your parents are giving you a lot of problems growing old? You and your spouse are always fighting and nobody is ever willing to say "I'm sorry darling.."? Your kids never communicate with you because you are always yelling at them and never give the a chance to say what its in their mind?
Oh well. Maybe all of the above. What I'm trying to say is. All these issues are basically nothing new. Yet beings always fail to solve or attempt to solve, these issues. Understanding what you are facing is one thing, accepting it and trying to fix it is another thing. Most of them surprisingly, actually know how to approach it yet they never really attempted it.
Come on, let's face it. We all know how to talk about the others but we never dare to look at ourselves in that perspective and actually admit that we have the same problem and need to fix them a.s.a.p.
Adults are basically losers who thinks they know what are best for you and they know it all. Well, they do know things kids don't know. But hey, watch your pride and stubbornness before you approach alright. Many times, they have no clue what they are saying.
Panicking as my age is slowly catching up. And what's more? Noticing adults around me are behaving like crazy people. Always thinking what they do is the right thing to do. What the hell, what ever it is, there's no way anyone is going to force me into the dirty adult world. The selfish, stubborn, stupid, senseless, nonsense world of the adults. There's nothing to be proud of if you behave well in front of people, here I mean strangers, unless potential robbers/rapist etc. better still you behave madly so that people won't come and approach you right? I'm not saying that everyone shouldn't behave well, behaving well is courtesy and manners of course. It's just that don't pretend to act serious stern and boring aka behave well even in situations when you don't need to behave, e.g. a rock concert, a dinner gathering, a private party function? Something like that.. I think I'm sorta outta the topic... not even on the topic... anyways... I'm just saying. I sincerely believe that one should just behave normally at all times, and be a little bit serious about your environment when you are at places like the court, when you are fighting some serious case, the hospital, when someone is ill or dying, the bank, so that people wouldn't rob you, on the road when driving, so that your safety is taken care of, the parliament, if you ever need to be there, don't ask me why, any government offices, or the the police station, so that you won't have to go to jail. Other than that, just be yourself.
One big principal for all of you as a guide: Never take anything for granted. Or you will be sorry one day without even noticing what you did wrong.

Hello 2011!!! I'm ready for the great adventure ahead! *fireworks*
Yes. And time flies. 2010 was a year packed with fulfillment of spontaneous goals and objectives. I managed to achieve targets and accomplish things my inner self always wanted to accomplish. Overall, 2010 was full of challenges and self-recognition. Moreover, to me 2010 was a decision making year and I am pretty sure I did well.
You don't have to judge me because I am living with me, for now and ever.
2011 is about maintaining current happiness and further boosting happiness within. Happiness is one thing that could bring you more happiness and spread them around like deadly viruses. However, I have some serious rules for such maintenance. *I think I need to learn the smile meditation, so that even my liver will smile!*
Rule No. 1: Keep a FAR distance from gloomy, miserable souls. NO SELF PITY FOLKS!
Rule No. 2: Keep a FAR distance from negative forces. STOP FEEDING ON MY POSITIVE FORCES!
Rule No. 3: People who try to judge you? Or get jealous of you? Go ahead and fuck them upside down (yeah with a cucumber or a pole) and stay away from them.
Basically the spirit of these rules is to keep away from nasty souls. I could get nasty too, of course. Just hate getting my hands dirty. Normally people tend to observe my cheerful character, assuming that as easy-going and easy-to-push-around. But once they cross the line, they will realize if they move further, they will get fucked upside down. muwahahaha. (just jk. haven't really fucked anyone upside down. yet. but, you get what I mean ya.)
Have a good feeling that this positive and happy me is going to bring me more positive and happy people! =) I'm excited now!
Now about some memos regarding my end of year tour. Maybe some photos.
Left Osaka from Shinosaka station on December 26, 2010 and caught a night bus around 10pm. It was COLD and the bus was CRAMP and the girl who sat next to me has a SMALL BLADDER. She was having a window seat and she will wake me up every time the bus stopped for a short rest. I finally arrived Shinjuku 6:30am. I had blisters on both my feet, new shoes... bah. I dragged my luggage to a McDonalds', had 200yen breakfast and slept for awhile. I think I was crazy sleepy, the McD cleaning lady asked if I was ok. Maybe I looked drunk or something. Hee. Around 10 plus, I went to Green Plaza and spent 1500yen to shower and refresh for 90 minutes. After showering and soaking myself, I blow-dried my hair and that was when I heard interesting conversations. Two prostitutes was talking about their customers (Shinjuku is where the KabukiCho is situated. It's one of Tokyo's populated red light district. I bet many prostitutes get fucked at night and shower here in the morning.) One of the girls was talking how smooth was her Korean customer's skin and dick. After putting on makeup, I moved on to NihonBudoukan. It's a highly reputable event hall that most of the J-rockers or J-artist normally perform (it's actual purpose is for sports like Judo/Kendo etc.). I was there for JACK IN THE BOX Winter 2010. I missed the one in SUMMER!! which is maybe 5 times more exciting than this winter one but anyways, I made it anyways. NihonBudoukan is a concert hall that I've always wanted to visit. Since I've always heard its name before I came to Japan. I had a seat, very far from the stage, but I had loads of fun. The show lasted for SIX freaking hours. The longest I've ever attended. There were many waiting moments when they change their sets. Members of Maverick DC group took turns to give surprising performances, so all the waiting moments were worth the waiting. Only Ken chan and Hyde sama were present that day. But Hyde was a total surprise!! Ken was there at the beginning and everyone thought (maybe just me) it will just be him from L'arc. Ken chan sang Lady Gaga's Bad Romance and Telephone!!! So much FUN!!! He also tried singing L'arc's songs like Flower? I think, couldn't really remember. Or Winter Fall... maybe... with another vocalist. But none of them could reach the note!!! hahaha. I bet Hyde was laughing at the back stage. Hyde on the other hand sang some metal rock songs with his super hot rocker police outfit. HE WAS SUPER SEXY that day! Oh well, he is always SEXY! That was the day I was officially introduced to MUCC, SID... Oh Acid Black Cherry wasn't there either.... I really enjoyed Yasu, Daigo and Hyde's interactions from Halloween Party 2010 at Kobe in October 27, 2010.
MUCC and SID were impressive! Along with all other various Visual Rock Bands... oh and ZORO was impressive too.
OH I just found this line up on that day. Here goes!
JACK IN THE BOX WINTER 2010 (December 27, 2010)

“最高だ！”
Can't find any videos for 永遠の街-THE “NOISE”CITY- ... I love that song!!!
The show started at 2pm and ended at 8pm, total of six hours. I heard from the crowd that the show should end around 10pm, eight hours!?!??!?! omg. awesome... But I'm glad it ended "earlier". I met up with ex-colleagues in Tokyo around 9pm -_-" after checking in to the hotel *rushhhhh*. Then we had dinner, gossip... gossip... and more gossiping. =)
December 28, 2010 I met up with ex-colleague for lunch. And found Forever 21 in Ginza!!! Got 2 pairs of cute nighty shorts with matching eye masks. =) Happy!
Next, I dropped by Hibiya Park as I really missed this park!!! Didn't have time to roam around but I checked out the Da Vinci Secret Temp Museum. It exhibited the 25 secrets analysis of the Mono Lisa painting. Ook. I don't really know much about the painting. But now I know the 25 secrets!!! HAhahaha. And I also learnt that Da Vinci he WAS a great multitalented genius! Maybe I should read more books from now. (oh well, I am reading more books now... real books... not comic books...)
Ohhh... Hibiya Park Fountain.... my ex-lunch place... =)
Then I attended the Karaoke After Party at Shibuya AX. Administrator was the opening guest again. Then various random visual J-rocker wannabe had their time on the stage. There was one particular band who looked EXACTLY LIKE.. okay almost like L'arc!!! My photos weren't too clear. But everyone was screaming as if there were!!! Some band/solo sang VAMPS... and we were dancing VAMPS DANCE below the stage... (only less than 200 people were there... and I was standing right in front of the stage.... right in front....).
Seventh Heaven
awww... that bitch in the middle... move away!
see!!! Even their shadows looked like the real deal!!! HYDE SAMA !!!!!!!!! *screams*
Hung around abit at the end of Omotesando for the lights before taking the train at Harajuku.
December 29, 2010 I hanged out at the cafe near my hotel having breakfast and reading Murakami's "Norwegian Wood" at Gotanda station and moved towards Yokohama to meet up with Chiaki and Konomi's family for dinner. Before heading to Totsuka to meet with Konomi, I had Yokohama famous Omurice near the station and continued with my book. After meeting with Konomi at Totsuka, we took a bus and went back to her house. We had Gyoza that night! Yummy. December 30, 2010 Konomi and I went to Yokohama China Town to have some chinese food.
Konomi happy with her Singaporean Bee Hoon... (with curry powder?!?!?!)
YUMMY!!! best carrot cake and the salty meat mochi that I've been looking for ages!!!
Then we had dessert! Goma dango soup! Sesame rice balls.
We went back home that night and the sister's mom made us good dinner! Hamburg wrapped with cabbage and cooked in tomato soup....... YUMMY!!! and various Japanese style salad... I'm gonna miss that so much!!! Then we watched a movie we rented from Tsutaya. December 31, 2010 we had Takoyaki party lunch before I headed to Chiba for THE NEW YEAR concert.
I then said good bye to them and headed to Chiba, checked in hotel around 4pm and headed to Makuhari Messe to buy Official Goods. I arrived at Makuhari around 5pm. The line was already longer than the great wall of China... SCARY!!! So patiently I lined up...
5.39pm
not too bad... around 5.59pm
6pm... (wait... that huge scarf looks familiar... I have that!)
8.35pm!?!?!?!?
Back at the hotel, decided to ditch my down jacket... and just go with my goth dress.... and charcoal pads....*cold*...... I was running out of time!! (that was what I thought.... apparently not really...) but I will be if I just took the train back... too much walking and changing of trains!!! stupid train system... so I grabbed a cab at Makuhari station and screw the train..... Got there 20 minutes pass 10pm. Since there were too many people... my number wasn't up yet... Block A1 No.1820 and there was A0 and 1820 people before me... Got a bottle of drink, waited for a bit, and went into the hall. People were packed in the front and the right, and left side was pretty empty and I decided to stand in front of the screen at the far left, pretty close to the left hand extended stage but pretty far from the middle stage... It was a huge stage!!! I didn't get to buy any light sticks... all sold out.. but I got my own... which lasted for 15 minutes!!?!?! furious... what kind of concert light sticks last for 15 minutes!!! anyways... the concert was MARVELOUS!!!!!!!! I don't have 20 years of memories with L'arc.... but I've been dreaming of attending their concert!!!! Although totally unexpected, nothing like those I've seen on DVDs........ all the other fans were surprised too. Hyde said on stage that he didn't remember how L'Arc's concert was like anymore (too much VAMPS these two years?!?!?! heehee) until the fans started yelling each of their names!!! Then Hyde confirmed that "aww.. this is how it feels.." *CUTE* I *heart* his blonde hair!!!
Back in the hotel with my first meal of the year!!!! Wooray!!! food from lawson... pasta...-_-" Totally skipped Dec 31, 2010 dinner, only had takoyaki in the afternoon... wow...

I dragged my luggage to a McDonalds', had 200yen breakfast and slept for awhile. I think I was crazy sleepy, the McD cleaning lady asked if I was ok. Maybe I looked drunk or something. Hee. Around 10 plus, I went to Green Plaza and spent 1500yen to shower and refresh for 90 minutes. After showering and soaking myself, I blow-dried my hair and that was when I heard interesting conversations. Two prostitutes was talking about their customers (Shinjuku is where the KabukiCho is situated. It's one of Tokyo's populated red light district. I bet many prostitutes get fucked at night and shower here in the morning.) One of the girls was talking how smooth was her Korean customer's skin and dick. After putting on makeup, I moved on to NihonBudoukan. It's a highly reputable event hall that most of the J-rockers or J-artist normally perform (it's actual purpose is for sports like Judo/Kendo etc.). I was there for JACK IN THE BOX Winter 2010. I missed the one in SUMMER!! which is maybe 5 times more exciting than this winter one but anyways, I made it anyways. NihonBudoukan is a concert hall that I've always wanted to visit. Since I've always heard its name before I came to Japan. I had a seat, very far from the stage, but I had loads of fun. The show lasted for SIX freaking hours. The longest I've ever attended. There were many waiting moments when they change their sets. Members of Maverick DC group took turns to give surprising performances, so all the waiting moments were worth the waiting. Only Ken chan and Hyde sama were present that day. But Hyde was a total surprise!! Ken was there at the beginning and everyone thought (maybe just me) it will just be him from L'arc. Ken chan sang Lady Gaga's Bad Romance and Telephone!!! So much FUN!!! He also tried singing L'arc's songs like Flower? I think, couldn't really remember. Or Winter Fall... maybe... with another vocalist. But none of them could reach the note!!! hahaha. I bet Hyde was laughing at the back stage. Hyde on the other hand sang some metal rock songs with his super hot rocker police outfit. HE WAS SUPER SEXY that day! Oh well, he is always SEXY! That was the day I was officially introduced to MUCC, SID... Oh Acid Black Cherry wasn't there either.... I really enjoyed Yasu, Daigo and Hyde's interactions from Halloween Party 2010 at Kobe in October 27, 2010.
MUCC and SID were impressive! Along with all other various Visual Rock Bands... oh and ZORO was impressive too.
OH I just found this line up on that day. Here goes!

"Freewheel Burning" Judas Priest from Session F
“最高だ！”
Can't find any videos for 永遠の街-THE “NOISE”CITY- ... I love that song!!!
The show started at 2pm and ended at 8pm, total of six hours. I heard from the crowd that the show should end around 10pm, eight hours!?!??!?! omg. awesome... But I'm glad it ended "earlier". I met up with ex-colleagues in Tokyo around 9pm -_-" after checking in to the hotel *rushhhhh*. Then we had dinner, gossip... gossip... and more gossiping. =)
Ohhh... Hibiya Park Fountain.... my ex-lunch place... =)Had some trouble finding this place... it was so dark... Got out at Harajuku and walked towards NHK... then almost got lost... saw the crowd.. went with it... ended up LEMON CC hall... then finally found this building... and there's not many people there at all....
Seventh Heaven
awww... that bitch in the middle... move away!
see!!! Even their shadows looked like the real deal!!! HYDE SAMA !!!!!!!!! *screams*
Hung around abit at the end of Omotesando for the lights before taking the train at Harajuku.
Konomi happy with her Singaporean Bee Hoon... (with curry powder?!?!?!)
YUMMY!!! best carrot cake and the salty meat mochi that I've been looking for ages!!!
Then we had dessert! Goma dango soup! Sesame rice balls.
I then said good bye to them and headed to Chiba, checked in hotel around 4pm and headed to Makuhari Messe to buy Official Goods. I arrived at Makuhari around 5pm. The line was already longer than the great wall of China... SCARY!!! So patiently I lined up...
5.39pm
not too bad... around 5.59pm
6pm... (wait... that huge scarf looks familiar... I have that!)
8.35pm!?!?!?!?
The doors will open at 10pm and I was planning to return to my hotel sleep for awhile and grab food before heading back... but I was almost panicking when its 8.35pm and I am still super far away.... and the line wasn't moving... there was a girl dressed up like a maid with her friend, after she talked on the phone and complaining how she was about to die in the cold (it was FREEZING... I can't even feel my toes at that time...) and she was hungry... blabla... and SHE CRIED like a baby...................@_@ *shocked* finally she gave up and left the line with her friend.... and maybe 15 minutes after that the line started moving and the line splat into two!!! I went towards the left and sailed smoothly towards the front!!! phew.... lucky...
9.04pm........... FINALLY IN THE LINE IN FRONT OF THE GOODS STAND!!!! WOHOOOO!!! you have no idea how happy I was then!!!! RELIEVED!!!!
9.12pm I ran like crazy to the station to get back to the hotel..
9.04pm........... FINALLY IN THE LINE IN FRONT OF THE GOODS STAND!!!! WOHOOOO!!! you have no idea how happy I was then!!!! RELIEVED!!!!
9.12pm I ran like crazy to the station to get back to the hotel..
was struggling at that point if I should just stay but I was holding too many stuff and was without makeup!!! I can't be at the concert without makeup what if HYDE sees me?!?!?!? paranoid to the max.... so I ran like mad and went back to the station... I was keeping an eye on the Red and White yearly singing show watching out for L'Arc but they appear when I was running towards the station... After noticing everyone was watching it on mobile... by the time I took out my phone and watch it... I only saw Hyde finishing the song..-_-" OMG. Neways, they sang Bless.........

L'A HAPPY NEW YEAR 2011.1.1 Full Report by Fan --> CLICK HERE
January 1-3, 2011 Kawaguchi-Ko. I checked out the hotel in the morning, went to Shinjuku and had McDonalds again (Jan 1, 2011 breakfast?!? lunch?!? )
We rested well. =) We had loads of fun staying in a super cheap Japanese style ryoukan. 6500yen for two nights no grand food share toilet and bathroom. But the view was pretty, same as the other expensive hotels around us. I was super proud of myself. I didn't even care if the seniors were complaining. It doesn't matter at all to me. All that it matters is that I get to protect my own happiness. Yes. Be jealous that I am happy. Hohoho.
Thanks Dits for this beautiful photo!!! =) Love ya!
I took loads of pretty photos of Mount Fuji. I've also went to FujiQ with the boys and saw the illumination lights... Christmas and new year's. Thanks Phil for granting my wish of not doing illumination hunting by myself anymore! We had Japanese curry rice resembling Mount Fuji for dinner (forgot about photo...).
Special Train!!!
