never forget you
I can't focus these days because of motherfucking Jon Underdown.
On Twitter, ever since I saw fade in Osaka, it's just been Jon-Jon-Jon-VAMPS-Jon-fade-Jon-life-Jon-Jon. It's 2011 all over again. I remember going through all of his blog posts, attempting to read all the Japanese ones, grinning like a fool at the English ones, and saving all the photos because, aw, I just couldn't get enough of him. That was when he first joined G in YFC and I had nothing to feed my growing interest in him except for the Fake Press Conference clip and two or three official YFC photos. And I really, really wanted to know more about him so, yeah, to his Ameblo blog and Twitter it was. After that, it was to Youtube, where I listened to fade's songs and watched their behind-the-scenes videos and stuff.
I thought Jon was so handsome and so funny and man, his voice is just so boyish and yasashii. And then I heard him speak in Japanese fluently and my heart burst.
He still has the same effect on me, urgh. I hate this so, so much. But, thanks to this obsession of mine, everyday's a little brighter, a little more exciting.
And I'm just gonna leave this here because I'm trying to get y'all interested in fade as well because it's a nice song:
It's from an acoustic live that fade did with another band called Undergraph. The song, Close to You, starts at the 3:09 point. The singer from Undergraph sings one verse but the rest is all Jon and I just love this performance so much: the way Jon looks, the many side-profile shots that the camera gives us. Translation of the song here.
Anyway, I went straight back to work at 8 Cafe & Bar after I came back from Japan. I love working there. It's so cosy and the atmosphere's really nice.
Today, my boss had to leave the cafe to me for a few minutes 'cause he had to interview someone for a part-time job. I just said 'okay' and went back to wiping the glasses behind the bar counter while keeping an eye on the customers. It was then I thought about how far I'd come in this job. In the past, I'd be a ball of anxiety, worrying about speaking to customers and dealing with them without my boss's supervision. But now, after months of working there, I know how everything works and it's a nice feeling. I hardly ever have to ask my boss questions and, in fact, I'm the one being consulted by the newer workers (I especially feel very powerful when my boss asks me to train the new workers, haha).
So the busy lunch hours are a nice distraction from Jon.
School starts in about two weeks. Then, a week after that, I'm flying back to Japan to celebrate Halloween with the one and only VAMPS. This year, I'm attending the live in Kobe with Bernie! I'm so excited because it's her first Halloween live and we're gonna do scary make-up together and have lots of fun! So, this is what it's like to have an older sister... :)
It's 1:06am right now and I've got to get up early for work tomorrow so maybe it's time I turn in.
