    366: and you exploded in my heart 

     

    The weather needs to get a grip on itself. It keeps alternating raining and not raining, the sun shining and not shining, the sky being cloudy and then not. It needs to stop sending me on rollercoasters because I don’t like being taken for rides.

    (More …)

      well, its spring after all! alternating sunshine and showers are to be expected.
      i cant come to terms with the fact that im leaving glasgow for good in 5 days time either. ARGH. and im spending my last week here STUDYING? WTF

    • r 10:46 pm on May 17, 2009 Permalink

      still totally unused to this terribly unpredictable weather!
      have you packed and all yet? said goodbye to people? i won’t really miss the town much (too small, not nearly exciting enough) but there’re so many people i’ll miss.

      SEE YOU IN STANSTED SAM

    • sam 11:42 pm on May 20, 2009 Permalink

      i just had a humble tearful warmhearted goodbye talk with all my flat mates separately. haha. okay, i exaggerated on the tears.. but if there were tears it wouldn’t have surprised anyone. so sad!

      and i also made friends during this week of exams that i wished i made earlier..
      imagine!! i only gathered courage to talk to that cute scottish girl in my commercial banking class after our fricking paper! HAHAHA.

      see you in london man. and i hope you are coming to glaston with us too.

    331: we can stick around and see this night through 

    I told someone before that there was no way I was going down the same road again, but it seems that I am, anyway. I’m not making excuses, and who knows how long this will take, and it saddens me a little that I was arrogant enough to think I could overcome it. Because I have, before, and why not this time, right? It’s true; I’m a proud person, and perhaps insanely so. I’ve been brought up to believe that I can do anything, and by extension, if I must do something, it should be something I can do alone. It is perhaps part of being alone all your life; you learn to do things by yourself, or you remain at the bottom of the well. 

    Because there is no point in continually dwelling on things I know I cannot change, I am going to try and make myself happy as I possibly can. And yes–there is no point dragging my cumulative luggage with me, though that takes a while to sink in and I probably have to keep telling myself that a million and one times, possibly to no avail. It is hard not to lapse back into the past when I honestly cannot remember the last time I was alone. But on the other hand I am only blind if I do not want to see. I have been talking to K a lot recently, and I am glad he is here; few people are as honest with me as he is, and after all these years, it’s funny how we can pick up where we left off. 

    So, the things that made me happy today:

      i havent left my house since wednesday and therefore have finished the entire season of nobuta wo produce while doing islamic history notes. currently on gokusen 2. anyway, have realised the guy whose in both dramas whose name i cannot spell but starts with k (kame somethingsomething) is from kat-tun but isnt the one youre obsessive over. whyyy. he’s so pretttyyy. and really, wtf at the law notes. the consequences of failing to crack it… form a committee of enquiry and get them to do it for you….
      take care dear, be happy!

    • supermango 4:54 am on April 12, 2008 Permalink

      HAHA no i love kame. i love them both! to be honest, (and i’m going to sound like a fangirl here) jin – who is hayato in gokusen – is better looking, but kame is much prettier. and acts better. he doesn’t look like that now anymore though, he’s gained weight and filled up and … looks very hot.

      here are pictures for evidence:

      kame 1
      kame 2

      i didn’t like nobuta that much though everyone went crazy over it. to be honest i think akira was really good in it though.

    • nurul 6:48 am on April 12, 2008 Permalink

      OH MY GOODNESS HE’S HAYATO!!!! okay now i understaaand. they look really good next to each other! like, it makes the term pinupboys make sense. though no way is jin better looking. kame is like… hotness. though i think the filling upness loses a bit of the slightly wayward waifishness he had. anyway, pictures just dont do it for me. i need to see him from all angles!! haha! have you seen this: http://wiki.d-addicts.com/1_Pound_no_Fukuin ? i would think that he gained weight from that. havent watched it… seems a bit odd. like kimi wa petto which i watched the beginning and ending of and got VERY weirded out by matsumotojun kissing koyuki. i think the acting for nobuta was really good, and the fact that it didnt have a perfect ending. though to be very honest i did continue watching it for the two guys. and also because i will watch almost anything to not study. miss you, and being insane. be well, dear!

    • supermango 11:41 am on April 12, 2008 Permalink

      yes he is :) hahahaa yes i have the whole subbed version of one pound gospel (and i can tell you where to download it if you want). subbers are really fast and i watched every episode the week after it aired in japan – so that means people only took less than a week to subtitle it. they’re amazing… and very free. not that i’m complaining, really, but woah.

      yeah he did gain weight from it – he spent alot of interviews saying how because of the prep for the role that he gained a lot of muscle, though he’s the naturally skinny type so a month after that he’s back to normal if he doesn’t work out (it stopped showing in march and his arms are not as bulgy as before already). it was quite good even though the story was a bit weird, cos the character is so funny. OKAY. people are probably creeped out by how much i know right now. i follow these two boys obsessively.

      and you should probably see kame dance if you want to see him from all angles. hur hur.

      to be honest i stopped watching kimi wa petto after about 7 episodes because it was just too weird. i didn’t want to know the ending even though i sort of knew the ending already, if you get what i mean. it’s probably just that i didn’t want to see it. it was so strange. i miss you too! you’re the only one who understands my obsession!

    • nurul 5:40 am on April 13, 2008 Permalink

      its on mysoju! JOY! JOY! okay i might watch it tonight since no ones in my flat which makes me sad. though, i think kame in nobuta > kame in gokusen since he actually smiles in nobuta a lot. gokusen has this requirement for emo tough guys or smth.

      ahhh do you understand enough japanese to follow the interviews?! i want to understand all the crazy stuff on youtube! theres one where apparently akanishi jin talks about how he saw someone in shibuya who looks kame but with his eyebrows at 15degrees more angled or something. it was funny anyway! no i totally get the obsession. we are sad, sad people. but its okay. we understand each other!

      ya seriously i read your comment and i went on youtube. 7 episodes is quite a lot! i freaked by the 2nd, but i wanted to know how it ended so i watched the last 2. it was really strange because at that time in politics we were doing the philosophy of why slavery is immoral, i.e. because no one would willingly give up all of his/her rights to someone else. but like, so therefore is being a pet immoral?

      WE ARE SAD PEOPLE! but i love you anyway! haha omg youre going to japan right, are you going for their concert? MUST TAKE PICTURES!

    • supermango 11:31 am on April 13, 2008 Permalink

      i love that show… seriously. kame smiles an insane amount in one pound gospel it’s crazy!

      gokusen 3 is going to air in japan this month, or next. obviously no one cares enough about it because there is zero hype about it. gokusen was first headlined by matsumoto jun and oguri shun, then akame after that, so they got crazy ratings (like 30%!) but now i don’t even know who the actors are and probably will not care. that is sad because the ratings will probably just go down the drain and everyone will be very sad. the plot does tend to get very repetitive after like the 5th episode… i’m surprised it lasted two seasons but to be honest i ended up just watching it for the guys only. haha. i am so shallow.

      randomly, they showed gokusen 2 on tv twice! on channel 8! and during nobuta, kame was only 40kg! oh and there is going to be a hana kimi special! they are filming it now! too many exclamation marks!

      well he did give up his rights in exchange for food and lodging so … if immorality of slavery is premised on lack of consent you can’t really say it’s immoral if he did it voluntarily right? then again, a right is a right is a right and cannot be exchanged. the debate goes on. hur. i am obviously really doing too much constitutional law now (: do you want anything from japan?

      you should watch cartoon kat-tun! it made me love them all. they are CRAZY and stupid and hilarious. and one of them cracks stupid jokes and puns and they all roll their eyes and kick him. but he is adorable.

      see! junno 1
      junno 2
      junno 3
      you always see the blonde dude at the back coming to get ready to kick him. it’s super funny.

      everybody reading this exchange is probably thinking we are crazy.

    • nurul 3:34 pm on April 15, 2008 Permalink

      i know! soooooo cute! though the nun chick honestly did annoy me SO MUCH at points.
      i think gokusen 2 was better than 1, much more realistic. or well, as realistic as you get. but yeah. gokusen 3 will probably just be overkill. i just fastforwarded all the parts where she wasgiving “inspirational” speeches. haha. i kept thinking how hard it must have been for the guys to try and maintain an interested/ awed expression, with the exception of kame, who was allowed to look bored all the time.
      40kg?! WHAT! WHAT?! that is UNREASONABLE! yaaaa omg i am soooo looking forward to the hana kimi special! the hana yori dango one is supposed to be out this year as well! exciting!!
      it depends, how you define slavery in some ways because if you define it as being wrong because it is irrational for someone to give up his rights, therefore no one would do so, therefore can you say that anyone who agrees to slavery is therefore irrational and the contract itself is invalid? ok nvm. lets just NOT do work here. hahaha.
      ooh! hmmm. how much are cds? if theyre not tt ex help me get either arashi or kat tun? if not then a postcard would be nice! yayyyy you’re amazing! -beeeghug-
      i watched bits on youtube, like the one where kame says he holds hands with everyone including guys and everyone else goes crazy!
      its okay, they should be inspired and go and watch EVERYTHING that has akame or oguri shun. haha. man, how do i deal with the realisation tt i am a grade a otaku? (is there a feminine form of otaku? otakette?)

    • nurul 3:43 pm on April 15, 2008 Permalink

      okay maybe i should stick with fangirl. i can deal with fangirl. =)

    • supermango 4:49 pm on April 15, 2008 Permalink

      i think gokusen 2 was already quite bad. luckily they’re good looking and she’s pretty and there are some funny parts – but the fighting was so weird. did you notice she only fought them one-on-one, EVER? so unrealistic!!

      yes we are not going to talk about work. well – i’ve been called that alot lately so i guess it’s true. the funniest part is that i have now set my computer screensaver to start every 15 minutes, but my folder just consists of 486459656 pictures of japanese boys in HIGH QUALITY so sometimes when they flash across the screen all you see are their crotches or faces or some weird body part in great detail. which would probably scare me if i were not me and sitting behind me instead. now whenever i go away for too long i have to remember to put the laptop cover down or half the world will be potentially exposed to my perversion. oops. they’re all wearing clothes though. but still. i suppose it would be a bit traumatising.

      i have no idea how much they are but cdjapan sells kat-tun cds online for about $50. the singles are about $15? so without shipping i’d imagine they’d be cheaper.

      you like arashi too! randomly did you know that one of them is the dude in letters from iwo jima? the BAKER?

    • nurul 5:45 am on April 16, 2008 Permalink

      okay this shows how much TIME I WASTE but gokusen 2 ep 9 is like kame at his HOTTEST, EVER. kame + striped white shirt and skinny pants = yummy. seriously. i am SO rewatching that episode. ya! the fighting is SO UNREALISTIC! its like. yes, hit the teen boys while in a large group but line up carefully so the chick can knock you out. haha shes really damn funny when she does her whole, ohhh i know you boys love me thing, and then the guys are like – WTH?!

      you never know, leave it up and you might make a friend!! hee hee. i’m glad they’re all wearing clothes, risse. very glad. hahahaha. though apparently, oguri shun has modelled for a yaoi magazine with his best friend, and im not sure how disturbed i should feel. haha. one of my guy friends watched hana kimi and liked it, though felt very uncomfortable watching it, which i find quite funny.

      a cd is 50?! are you kidding me?! okay i will think about it when i go home and tell you. haha. yes! i like arashi! there’s a music vid they do with like little wooden dolls which is sooo cute. i havent watched letters from iwo jima! it seems too depressing, im not in the mood. anyway, do you like ikuta toma too? his smile is how cute la okay. i would totally watch honey and clover except that the girl annoyed me SO MUCH during the first episode.

      anyway, much love.

    • supermango 11:35 am on April 16, 2008 Permalink

      hahaa i watched gokusen 2 so long ago that i can’t really remember, but it should be the one where he kneels down and cries right? kame from that period is too angular for me – like you can tell both of them (well all of them really) haven’t really grown out of their teenage faces and it’s all a bit awkward. watch the lips pv! kame is wearing eyeliner and it is all very hot (:

      the interactions between the head teacher and her are really funny though. the sound effects make it even funnier (:

      oguri shun does a lot of weird things people don’t expect him to, like play the lead in shakespeare plays on stage. anyway apparently he is just like that – he and ikuta toma are very good friends and all they pretend to do is just be stupid and act gay and call each other wife and husband and do dumb things like take pleasure in watching everybody else feel horrified. hana kimi was a very good way to explore homosexuality in a way that alot of homophobes wouldn’t find that offensive (i think). yes i liked him in the role and i’m very sad that he still hasn’t debuted even though he’s been in the business since he was 14 and that was all together too much information. haven’t watched honey and clover, but maybe i’ll start on it after exams. i put watching another one on hold too – ganbatte ikkimasshoi – which stars nishikido ryo from NEWS (yet another johnny’s entertainment group) ha this johnny’s is seriously taking over my entire life. i watched until ep 3 the held it off cos the girl was so offensive. she acts in initial d with jay chou! ergh. hooray for annoying girls.

      yeah a cd online is 50 but i’m sure it’s cheaper there. although japanese groups don’t really release cds very often (but they come up with a single like every 3 months) so their albums have like 40 songs and are usually released nearing their concert tour dates as like some promotional gimmick. the dude in charge of them really knows how to make money okay.

    • nurul 2:55 am on April 18, 2008 Permalink

      yeahh its that one. haha well, i watched it a couple of weeks ago so its all a bit new to me. i dont know, though. they look a bit more raw when they were younger. haha yes i watched it! very very hot. though the clothes make him look like he’s doing a musical called “pimp, the japanese edition”. i watched a couple of episodes of cartoon kat-tun and OMG i am SO in love! they are hilarious! watched the ones with leah dizon (where akanishi jin is like, SILENT AND STARING for most part of it), erika toda and horikita maki. hilarious! junno makes the STUPIDEST comments!

      i can imagine oguri shun would make a good hamlet, or smth. haha i swear, he sounds like he was prob in an all boys school for a while. i dont know, when i watched hana kimi i was like, OH MY GOODNESS, this reminds me in some weird way of being in rg and being completely insane. though, i think a lot of homophobes wouldnt actually watch a show like hana kimi…

      have you watched kurosagi? its really quite good. yamapi and horikita maki. yamapi is good but really, okay, so incapable of smiling that its quite strange. i think if there werent any annoying girls we would be watching EVEN MORE SHOWS. so maybe its a good thing.

      the guy in charge of them has like, the BEST JOB EVER wth. seriously.

      love,
      nj

    • supermango 3:55 am on April 20, 2008 Permalink

      haha yes. there are like 54 episodes now so you can take your time watching them (: they are really super funny. yah jin is fascinated by eurasians (hence leah dizon) and he only starts smiling when he tries to ‘propose’ to her with lyrics from a justin timberlake song and everyone is just like O_O!!!! and his english is actually not bad… haha. junno’s jokes are really retarded and he always gets kicked but he deserves to be loved anyway. haha

      yes oguri shun sounds repressed really but i think he just has a very weird sense of humour. it’s a secondary school thing!! all the strange things happened in sec sch seriously. like faith shaking her butt to get into your locked classroom while somebody filmed her at the back. that scene is forever burned into my mind…

      yeah i watched kurosagi – the movie just came out! haha. yamapi doesn’t laugh at all unless he’s with friends i think. he’s super stiff on camera even on talk shows where everyone is rolling in laughter but he just has this pained smile on his face like he can’t decide whether to smile or laugh or neither or both. it’s so painful to watch. hahahah

      i like romances though! so i’d watch them even with girls, so long as they aren’t annoying. haiii.

    • nurul 4:20 am on April 21, 2008 Permalink

      oh man, seriously. its like, im thinking its a really good thing that i dont live in japan because i would spend ALL my money and time being obsessive. have you seen this clip of matsumoto jun and jin sniping at each other? TOTALLY HILARIOUS. esp the first part where jun’s all up in jin’s face about how jin “looks like a playboy”. i know! the whole justin timberlake thing was sooo 0_0?! but points for effort, man. he must REALLY like leah dizon. i think nakamaru is sooo lovable. apparently his method of dealing with akame fighting is to lock them in a room.

      i think its just a single gender school thing. ya! hahahaha that was hilarious. faith was screaming SO LOUD. and we were all always in school ALL THE TIME. also all the random competitions, and the insanity, and the drama, and the way we’re all exceedingly affectionate. haha.

      AHHH. darn darn darn. MORE THINGS TO WATCH! i know! its really really strange, right. hes so odd! like, odder than usual. that chick in one pound gospel is in crows zero is it? im like, damn, its going to stop showing by the time i get back to sg! im going to have to either buy it or download.

      yes. we’re all suckers for romance. which is why i think nobuta isnt so attractive, theres no romance. was trying to explain to my friend why i was so obsessed with japanese dramas, at which point she told me i sound like i really need to get married. =( so sad right. haha i made a list of jap boys on my blog just so i remember to watch all this stuff after exams.

      anyway, much love!

    • supermango 4:56 am on April 21, 2008 Permalink

      yes i think so too and it would probably be worse if i actually understood japanese totally i think i would just die glued to the tv for every single nonsense that comes out. and yes i saw that clip too, i downloaded it from somewhere and they’re just so retarded sniping at each other saying stupid things. which is what makes them hilarious and lovable i suppose. anyway jin can speak english because he disappeared to LA for half a year so i guess leah dizon was really surprised… though when ueda tried to propose to her it just totally fell flat because he was supposed to do it in english but he asked for her number in jap anyway. and there was a strategically placed rock for him to trip over and land at her feet. what the helllll haha seriously. they make fun of nakamaru’s nose all the time it’s just so… omg hahahah you know it’s wrong but yet it’s so true so you can’t stop laughing anyway, and then he gives this -_- face like “oh well…”

      the akame dynamic is amazing to watch.

      sadly we’re probably in school all the time now too. crazy things happen when we’re in school and we’re totally stressed out studying and everything seems funny – sara’s face when she realised she was caught on video changing! CHANGING! so random and so funny (:

      im not sure if kurosagi is coming out in singapore but i think it should be (frankly i haven’t been to town in ages recently so i wouldn’t know… hahaha) but i’ll go check it out after exams FREEDOM IS NEAR! hur hur

      there were tentative beginnings of a romance which was nice i guess – was half scared it was going to turn into a kame-yamapi-maki love triangle and that would be so weird because nobuta is TOTALLY unattractive (sorry) even though she looks super cute in hana kimi. maybe its the personality too…

      it’s okay. my boyfriend thinks i’m mad. ahhh jap boys. so pretty and sparkly :D

    264: i ♥ the house of lords 

    The unhappy results which may follow from incompetent drafting may be, in the case of an instrument held to impose a trust, that it is so much waste-paper, whereas in the case of an instrument differing perhaps on the face of it very little from the invalid trust instrument a good gift of a power to benefit objects may emerge. Thus it is said that in order to avoid fine distinctions the test should be the same for both.

    Hello there. Am I missing something here? Who starts a freaking judgment by saying “incompetent drafting leads to wasted paper so we will just make the test the same”?!?!?!

    this week has been good though. mainly because the holidays gave us a week in advance, so completing tutorials and stuff hasn’t been that hectic. i spent most of our anniversary on thursday eating – lunch at hua ting, dessert at ps cafe, then jap buffet at ikoi. i don’t think we did anything else, though i was very tired by the end of it. went to oosh! at dempsey last night to watch marcus play after having trial/advo at raffles place, where we had the longest tutorial to date. at first i thought it was the freshie marcus, which made me wonder why so many year2s (from everywhere and random social circles) were going, but clearly i was mistaken. oops. but marcus played very nice songs and that made me happy. and the drinks at oosh are expensive, even though it was a very very very (x10) nice place. i wish i had a house like that!

    i just watched half of densha otoko (電車男) the movie starring yamada takayuki (山田孝之), whom i like very very much. he’s not really hot in the normal sort of way (cheryl toh was amazed by this super-hot guy she glimpsed on my computer while i was watching taiyou no uta – think his name is kaname jun) but just has this charm. i first watched him in waterboys (ok don’t laugh) while i was in japan and my host sister (errr, the daughter in the host family i was staying with) loved the series. so i watched it all raw, in japanese, without subtitles. while i was there i watched crying out love in the centre of the world, which was showing on tv at that moment. i think watching jap dramas is the only reason why my japanese is still not that rusty now… hmm.

    ok. need to stop talking about all this. shall go do my work now!!

    195: hooray for cabaret 

    oh man, eleanor grosch keds. so cute! need a pair of flats (that won’t disintegrate) NOW!

    looked at my property assignment last night – not fun.

    we went to hacienda last night after law iv! is a lovely place (i like dempsey alot) and prices are reasonable (especially before 9pm – cocktails for $10! pints for $8!) and i want to go back soon, during the day. preferably after school and ponning a lesson, just to make it all worthwhile. and randomly, i like stout. but the waiter was snarky, and i did not like that.

    also, i am very impressed with law iv. it was everything i expected and more. the power of a good scriptwriter cannot be underestimated. and the music!!! with the band playing at the back, live for every song! the lyrics were also good, and not terribly cheesy. junbin found it draggy in some parts, but i thought it was pretty good. the set was lovely! acting from leads was not too bad, singing though a bit off (but then, if we could sing, we most definitely would not be in law school – maybe touring taiwan, or opening a cake shop somewhere) and waah. haven’t felt so good about a drama production in very long.

    i think during our year we should write something that involves bad singing so everyone can laugh at it without thinking that we’d gone off tune. HEEHEE!

    i want to set up drama club NOW!

    am also thinking very seriously about getting a tattoo of the hours quote, or something from marquez. but i am a wimp, and it’ll probably hurt, and i am very apprehensive about getting permanent stuff all over me. :(

      ooh which the hours quote?

    • supermango 12:34 am on September 26, 2007 Permalink

      the one on the blog (:

      actually i haven’t really decided – the line preceding this quote in the screenplay is very nice too – “to know it for what it is, and then, to put it away”

    152: rainy days never say goodbye 

    tell me where’s the way!

    this is a random picture post because i’m really bored and i’ve just about had enough of reading about the history of mens rea in singapore – i don’t understand how to comment on people’s articles when it all just sounds rubbishy to me. “too assertive”? “no substantiation”? “emotive language”? sexual offences and random stupid headings like “gay but not happy” and “sex in the lion city” – omg. it’d make good first-year, introductory reading, but now i’m just like …. no. NO MORE!

    this was monday’s outfit, which i wore into the contract exam – just arrived last week from f21. gloomy days demand extra-happy clothes! i would’ve worn gold shoes (pot of gold at the end of the rainbow!! HAHA omg i’m damn genius), but it was raining in the morning and i hate driving with wet shoes. and talking about driving, i seriously can’t bloody parallel park. it irritates the shit out of me!!! AHHHH

    one of those days where i cheered myself up by driving to da paolo and getting myself a pretty cupcake

    this was 2am in the morning and i decided that the lighting was actually nice enough to make it look like i was in a commercial advertising UCC coffee! which my mother got for free at the petrol station for some reason (randomly, i really miss those days where you used to be able to go to the petrol station and fill up and get free tissue in the process.. hai)

    the bf bought me happy shorts to make me happy. TEE HEE!

    as you can tell, everything was taken with photo booth, cos the quality’s a bit grainy and everything is the other way round. 3 more days to go and all this will be OVER! and then we’ll be out for summer (randomly i don’t know whose great idea it is to refer to university holidays as “summer holidays” in singapore – i suspect it’s SMU – seriously, when there are no weather changes, how is the mention of a season remotely useful!!!)

    oh and i bought another new dress!! (it has already arrived!) now i have three jappy-looking tops/dress thingys. looks pretty though (: need to stop online shopping. going to bangkok/shanghai where i will have lots more things to buy!! ;D
