Hmm sounds interesting. Since I don't actually have a TV Guide, do you know what time it'll be repeated Friday and on which channel? I kind of want to watch this.

Nevermind. I just clicked that link. *facepalm*

Hee! XD
Ik heb gister de eerste twintig minuten gekeken voordat ik zo ongeveer in slaap viel (merkte opeens dat ik een stuk miste!), en ik wil vanavond verder kijken.

I think I'm going to pick up one of his books next time I'm in town. ^^

anthropopathy March 6 2007, 23:14:07 UTC

Was het zo saai? XD

Hmm I've never read any of his books, if I like the documentary I'll have to look them up. Though living in a boring little city like I do, I think I'll have to order them online. ;)

Yay for books too *laugh* I love reading. What do you read at the moment?

Gomen...I'm a lazy ass...here are the first two songs from Subway to Sally:

I'm reading the sequel to a book I'd gotten for my birthday last year, by Lian Hearn.

The books are a mix of Japanese, history and fantasy - so right up my ally. ♥
Across the Nightingale Floor is the first book, and I'm reading Grass for His Pillow now. Well, the Dutch version of it. ;)

Thank you for the songs! I bought In Extremo's Sünder ohne Zügel last week... want me to burn you a copy along with your DVDs? ♥
(Oh! I'm going to their concert in Tilburg this coming friday! I'm really excited to see them again. :D)

Never heared of this books X_X gomen. Most of the time I read fantasy. My last book was Inkheart ( it's called Tintenherz in Germany so I don't know the exact name in english).

Here are the next songs: http://www.solituderealm.de/layouts/neue/02.rar

Thanks but I've got all the CDs from In Extremo from the husbund of one of my friends ^^ So I don't need it.

I want to see a concert too ;_,

bochan March 12 2007, 21:01:49 UTC

90% of my books are fantasy as well - either that or history novels. ^^

The concert was absolutely wonderful. ♥
(Don't they tour in Germany? I hope they have a concert near you soon... *fingers crossed*)

hmmm~ I read a book written by haruki murakami, and, uhm, I didn't quite get it ^^;;; But well, I'm not really that much into all that philosophical stuff, so that was probably the reason ^^; I'm lazy, I don't like to think ^^; I'll make an exception for paulo coelho though ^.^

anno ne, about your trip to japan, another question ^^;; are you just going to go to JE shops or normal idol shops, too? °_°

bochan March 12 2007, 20:54:24 UTC

*laughs* I won't know if I like it until I actually sit down to read one of them - so there's always a chance I won't get it either.

Other as well, I think - depends on what we find! *grin*

rabupink March 15 2007, 13:18:09 UTC

ha! I bet you are going to read one and then you'll totally understand it, and I'm just being totally stupid XD but well, if I read I want to relax a bit, and not crawl into the depth of the human mind or something ^^;; what are you reading at the moment?

neee~ is it ok to be greedy and ask for something else than JE stuff? I mean, of course, just if you find a regular idol shop, I don't want you to go searching for one just for me >_<

guriin_eito March 23 2007, 21:26:06 UTC

Bochan,can I add u as my friend?

makuhita March 11 2007, 14:14:05 UTC

People are talking about Norwegian Woods. I heard it's good but I'm too lazy to open a novel not to mention reading it. D:

bochan March 12 2007, 20:56:31 UTC

That one was also mentioned in the documentary - seems to be the most accessible of his books, so I think I might start with that one. ^^
(...once I get off my lazy ass and buy go to the bookstore, that is.)

jessimusashi March 12 2007, 08:25:37 UTC

Hi there!
This is Jessi from the V6 community - I was the one who posted looking for timers ^^ Thanks for your offer to help btw!
I'm almost done with the translation and would like to have you help me time it! But first I need to know what kind of info you need me to include to help with timing - like timestamps (should there be one for every line or just every once in awhile?), names of who's saying what, etc. Like I said, I'm new at this >.<
Anyways if you could email me at girasola AT gmail.com that would be awesome! Thanks! Looking forward to your reply ^^
