OMG! *____________________________* I am flailing so, so, SO much over them. It's...just....yes. SO MUCH YES. WELCOME BACK TO KOREAN MUSIC, BOYS. :D :D :D:D Not that I don't adore their Japanese music. But if you're gonna come back to your home country with the aim to show that FOUR Daesangs was not a fluke, this is the way to do it.




JAEJOONG! YUNHO. CHANGMIN! YOOCHUUUUN. JUNSU. JAEJOONG. JAEJOONG *_______________________________*

I've been a bit restless tonight. Exhausted but restless. I've been working 11-12 hour days this week and half of last week and will probably do so until my class starts on the 22nd of this month. Work is insane but I'm learning so much. :D I can read some of the SUPRTOOL code that we use at work to solve problems and have been feeling bits and pieces of pride in between the rush to get things done and the feeling that I'm not doing enough to meet expectations. Add in an unexpected systems migration to an open systems (or Windows/Oracle) in the mix along with rock-solid commitments for two weddings and a festival and you will get an exhausted me. As Iso and I like to say....MMRRRR. :|

And now I can't sleep. wah.

Time to list all the things I need to do not at work/weddings/festival. I should probably schedule my time better. >.>

punch2 NewS' new single, weeeek, is totally fun and definitely reminds me of Greeeen's style. I love it. But then again, I really like Greeeen. I'm enjoying the fact that they wrote this song for NewS. It's all happy and bouncy with a bit of that alternative style that I love so much.

sweat DBSK is releasing Together for the Cinnamon movie. For the first time, I have no compulsion to order this immediately. ^_^;;

mist It's finally rained. I felt the temperature change yesterday and thought, "Finally!" and "It's a refreshing feeling." But every time the first rain comes around, I inevitably fall sick. -_- It doesn't help that I've been fighting off a cold for the last two weeks. Lots of liquids. Must get more of my blueberry tea to see if that helps. But as of right now, I'm getting sick. :(

rain In preparation for the rain, I bought a cute golf umbrella. It's black with multicolored polka dots.

shirt I have an appt in SF to try on a few bridesmaid dresses. Maybe I'll swing by Japantown and check out Kinokuniya. Or if [livejournal.com profile] halffling and [livejournal.com profile] rabbitattack or anyone else is free, we can do dinner?

sleepy I slept for almost 10 hours last night and I still don't feel rested.

watch Staring at my word document for a bit and wishing for words to appear doesn't really work. I think this is going to be the longest fic I've ever written and the one I've had the least attention span with. If you don't include my awkward Taiyo fic.

onigiri It's Wednesday and thus, breakfast is brought in for my dept. I am wondering if there will be anything I can eat that doesn't contain sugar or is deep fried.

cake I should count down the days until New Year's Day, the day I can finally eat something with sugar! I am planning on a fruit tart to celebrate holding out on not eating any refined sugar for over 6 months.

downarrow My dreams have been restless and making me feel antsy lately. It's all full of darkness and hands around my throat and suffocation. I'm really twitchy already about having other people put their hands around my throat but the dreams are making me feel bloated and breathless. Like I'm filled with negativity and choking on it since I can't release it. Which is odd because my recent hair cut brought a slew of positivity into my life. idk. Why can't I dream of hot boys and whirlwind sagas in alternative universes. :|

Insomnia sucks.


D:

And I didn't get to finish baking cookies because I've been so busy as of late. So I made something else for ConOps. Hope it doesn't disappear too quickly.

Anyways, here's something for [livejournal.com profile] mousapelli.

Not furthering the RevoluSHOON but it has Jin and Yabu! )

I'm gonna go back to counting stars and hope I can sleep before needing to be at work in 4 1/2 hours.

I've been listening through my playlist at work and I keep thinking of the songs I have on here and how much I really love some of w-inds. b-sides. Like Wasurenagusa. How sweet and soft the song is and when I read the translation, it just made me stop and enjoy the moment of fanglee. I especially love this part.


Donna ni tsukihi ga nagareta toshitemo
Keshite nakusenai omoi ga aru
Haru no hizashi ni yurete
Hisoyaka ni saiteru
Wasurenagusa no you ni

(Translation)
No matter how many days and months go by
I have a love that I can’t possible let go of
Swaying in the spring sunrays
Blooming secretly
Like a forget-me-not

Despite the heavy load at work, I just feel that today is one of those days to be cherished. I woke up feeling like that and it hasn't faded yet. Maybe I should fall asleep listening to K8's Heavenly Psycho more often. :3

Here, have a useless meme! stolen with glee from [livejournal.com profile] arashiangel.

jemz: (San Francisco)
So on my break, I randomly did a search for Osaka and San Francisco (since they are sister cities and are celebrating 50 years of being sister cities) and found out that there are only three Japantowns in the United States. All which reside in CALIFORNIA: Japantown in San Francisco, Japantown in San Jose, and Little Tokyo in Los Angeles.


It was randomly interesting.

So I have access to two of the Japantowns in the nation. It sounds really cool and unique but sometimes, I wish that wasn't the case. Maybe because I live in an area that has many diverse ethnic groups and things are more readily available so I wouldn't probably consider very many places to move to. I remember talking to [livejournal.com profile] shinigamitabris about it and how her and [livejournal.com profile] lady_gemma were amazed at all the asian stores.

But then again, I was all :O over the cotton fields when I visited [livejournal.com profile] shinigamitabris in Alabama.

Now I'm just rambling. ^_^ Almost time to go home and burn some of my pretty Japanese incense! makes me wish I did get the w-inds. incense when we were at the concerts! D:

Happy Birthday to [livejournal.com profile] mousapelli!!! Hope your day is filled with vapid Jin, sweetly hugging JaeHo, arguing AkiHika, Ryuichi pretending to do fireballs at Ryohei while Keita just pumps his arms around the stage, and all sorts of other wonderful goodies! *smooochies*








in other news, SuJu (Super Junior), the other korean group I've fallen for (besides DBSK. hush, tabs, shinwha & fly to the sky & h.o.t. are the ones i've been re-obsessed with. :-P ), had members survive a serious car accident. D: I don't know if anyone else on my flist is following this but KyuHyun, LeeTeuk, EunHyuk, and ShinDong of Super Junior are currently in the hospital. (I think ShinDong may have been released since he had the lightest injuries.) EunHyuk and LeeTeuk are in serious but stable conditions. KyuHyun is in critical condition with many injuries including pneumothorax, broken ribs, and broken pelvis.

SuJu's activities have been cancelled (yes, including their appearance at Hollywood Bowl in May in LA). RyeoWook and SungMin have temporarily taken over the DJ'ing for Kiss The Radio/Sukira (which KyuHyun, LeeTeuk, EunHyuk, and ShinDong were coming back from) for LeeTeuk and EunHyuk. They may rotate members to DJ the program but I'm not sure.

all news/info taken from [livejournal.com profile] super_junior

I really hope KyuHyun pulls through. T_T My heart goes out to those who are close to the boys and their families. I wonder if DBSK has heard about the accident. DBSK and SuJu are all pretty close. Eunhyuk is best friends with Junsu and Junsu must be frantic with worry. T____________T

seeing how it's super early in Tokyo and my body has not adjusted to San Francisco time, I have been awake since half past midnight on a few hours of sleep and am severely looooooonging for my bed. But work is keeping me hostage (gotta pay all those bills!) and I am unamused at my proclivity to nod off while trying to read numbers on my screen. Especially when sleep deprived.


Ah well. Here's a picture from my time in Kyoto doing the Philosopher's walk between Ginkakuji (Silver Pavilion) and Nanzen-ji.

a sea of pinks and it's not YamaPi's clothes. Nor Keita's. )


More to come when I wake up enough to upload them all on ImageShack. Or Yahoo!albums. Or something.

*falls over*


P.S. I don't know if I ever mentioned this but the horrible event at VTech has me glued to the interwebs all day and my heart, prayers, and hopes goes out to those who have friends, family, acquaintances there. It sickens me to think that someone can sink so low into despair/depravity to do such a thing and yet in the midst of all that tragedy, the courage of those who died to save others remain an inspiration.

It's sad that we go to school to expand our horizons and explore the world with a thirst for knowledge and then when things like this happen, the victims never get to see their full potential in life and the world loses some valuable people. I can hope and pray and pull inspiration from those who died and those who survived and keep on living to make a difference.

May they rest in peace.
