Lately, you might notice that I've been having one too many absences on a lot of my social media accounts. There are a number of reasons for that:
- Internet problems. Smartbro sucks. Period.
- Computer problems. I love this blue and black, tiny, handy Acer laptop/notebook to the tips of my heart and all but it's getting slower somehow. I'm due to get a new one soon. Probably sometime...early next year should all things go well by then. It's at the top of the what-to-get-for-myself list at this time.
- Real life. Real life is...it's a mess. It's ladden with personal problems that are equally as messy and those that I don't disclose to anyone at random. This post is public so pretty much it's readers/audience count as a 'anyone random.' There's enough drama in real life that there's no need for it in the vast cyber community.
- I'm minimizing my overrated presence online while also downsizing on social networking sites accounts. I really don't need a lot of social networking sites accounts...
- I've somehow lost interest in a ton of fandoms or stuff I flail on. This probably has much to do with the problematic real life and the fact that I don't seem to be listening to so much jpop and traditional song and background music lately. I currently have a fixation with chill deep house and/or melodic house music sets on youtube so that might have exacerbated my growing indifference to traditional, basic pop music.
- I feel like I don't really owe anyone anything when it comes to how I run my social networing accounts among others. In the online world, and this also applies to life offline, in the real world, I don't really owe anything to anyone including the readers/audience of this blog. It's the same with the one I just renamed fashionnutcase. It's/they're my blog/s and my social media accounts so I have liberty enough how I should run them.
- Social media stresses me out so... Lately, this has been the case so I'm withdrawing from it as much as possible and only posting stuff as necessary.
....well, that's a string of...hmn...things I felt I needed to let out here.
Should I be needed for anything from here, do send me an email at the address I provided at the sticky post up there. That one is staying in there for awhile. I also check comments and twitter direct messages from time to time. I reply to them although often times, it's done so selectively. I'm still the typical fangirl so yes,
@kg_0917 and
popculture etc. will remain semi-active. I'll tweet and post something on fandom from time to time but as to the frequency...it won't be as frequently as it were before. I don't post much about real life. It's boring, I don't need mine to be livened up by social media either. If I posted something about real life somewhere, it'd be here, on friends' only mode.
As for the closest friends I'd met here and everywhere else, there's my mobile phone number. Use it to abuse my inbox or something. I have some spare time to spend on any device anyway. But if I don't ever reply, it means I don't have any sms and call credits and likely won't be having any for a while until I need them. I like reading long ass text stuff on anywhere, mobile phone inbox or not so I'm likely to read those things you sent even if they're about nothing in particular useful sense.
I go on Line every once in a while. I can only use the PC version at this time, however. My ipad doesn't allow me to be on there for some reason these days. :( Should I be online when you are, do feel free to click on my username for a chat or something.
Editing things, sifting through contents, working on blog content ideas, etc...it feels great to be doing things, actually, and not just lurking around Twitter. :) It's like decluttering and phasing out out-of-season clothes...very...liberating.
Moving on...
....speaking of fandom...
Here are a few things that came by me a couple of months or so ago:
I'll just say this: the contents of the Da-iCE photobook are DIVINE...like, kill-me-now divine. I wish SOLIDEMO were also doing a photobook or at least made one but their calendar seems decent for next year. I want one. I'm too broke to get it, though, along with their 8 Collars album. Ugh. As an aside and although as a general rule, I usually am not into actors (I'm always into artists more), I'd like to have a copy of Takeuchi Ryoma's Ryomania, too. I like his acting. If there's one thing that made me turn my head to notice Takeuchi Ryoma, it's his expressiveness. He knows what to do with his face to showcase the appropriate emotion on a certain scene. Also, these expressions he shows the vast audience vary greatly. In a nutshell: he can actually act. Other than that, I actually think he's pretty good looking (smexy). Given his height and build for someone running 22-23 or 24, yep, he's one smoking son of a...and I'm done here. The lol EP came straight from Japan (Tokyo) on a recent trip my parents had there this year...on my birthweek no less. My dad couldn't find SOLIDEMO's Girlfriend single and Da-iCE's Fight Back album I also asked him to look into so...heh. It's okay. I'm planning to get those next time unless they're already out of print. :(
What I have been perusing over and over lately. I'm forming an obsession with Charlie XCX as well, especially since I love the 90s vibe she exudes in her music videos and even her lifestyle in general. All hail the 90s! The Vivi and the Da-iCE photobook came in together in the mail. I love that the former has Mackenyu who's from Kamen Rider Drive's movie, Surprise Future. I can't wait to see it once it gets released by subbers with the appropriate English subs. Kamen Rider Drive is my current toku obsession because of so many things...mainly the cast. I wish Takeuchi Ryoma every good thing he deserves for having been played a huge part in the toku-rider series. He's really good. :D
The Da-iCE photobook and the Vivi mag came with these from
kat_desu. I've only managed to watch 2 of Tye Sheridan's movies yet---Mud became an instant like but not really favorite---and in between bouts of re-watching some Kamen Rider Drive stuff, I'll look into popping Whiplash's DVD ang Kingsman's into the DVD player some time...
I have a bunch of things lined up to watch for the Halloween weekend and I won't even be home by then so I'm not sure when I'll be able to get into watching those films I've been meaning to watch for eons now.
As for other things...yes, I'm watching Kamen Rider Ghost weekly. I'll probably pick up a jdrama or two some day. I haven't even watched any decent Japanese film lately. Since tokusatsu is the most accessible, it's the only thing I've been into recently.
I only watch a bit of the usual tv shows I do these days...it's ETC I'm abusing on the local cable channel because of The Flash season 2 (I missed last week's episode...yes), Supergirl (it's premiering on there today), Scream Queens (I don't like Ryan Murphy and avoid anything he does as much as I can as a personal principle but this is a decent series, so...), iZombie (I don't know what makes this show so good, it just really is...I'm not a fan of zombies) and Candidly Nicole Season 2 (Nicole is hilarious, she might be my spirit animal or something...).
Music: because this warrants its own space here...
MH Musique has been a fixation these days. Their 2015 autumn playlist is my current jam. I also lurk in
Sensual Musique from time to time. If you guys know of any such similar youtube channels or maybe people in spotify or elsewhere offering the same kind of music---1-2 hours long of feel good, chill, deep house and melodic house (electronic) music---they do, feel free to suggest any of them to me. :)
Anyway, until next time.
