So, let's update again. Other than I`m kind of busy with applying for Jobs and all that stuff, life is pretty uneventful.

BUT I just listened to Patience, which is the new single of Take That. Take That were a boyband in the 90s and my favourite band. I saw them live 3 times, one time in Dortmund and twice in London at the Earls Court in 1995. If you don't know who they are maybe you know Robbie Williams who left Take That 6 months before they seperated in 1996 (horrible day for me, I skipped school and cried) For other people it might be unbelievable but for me Take That have been and always will be something very special. I was very young back then and I can honestly say that Take That have been my life back then. I wrote diary (well the normal one, online life was non existent back then) and nearly every page is full of Take That stories. I had some friends at school who shared my passion and I hated everybody who didn`t like them (there were a lot of people that didn`t like them) So this new single. It`s just gorgeous...fantastic wonderful song. And I am so happy that they will release a new album. I didn`t really realize that they were back together but they already toured Ireland and the UK. That`s great I feel like being pulled back into my early teens. Now the boys are well over 30 almost 40 and I'm at an age were you don`t stand screaming and waiting in the cold at hotels anymore and wait for your idols to come out. But it was a part of my life, a big part of my life and I miss it. And now it's just great listening to their music. I think with Take That I learned how to be fan. :) Atlhough I doubt that I ever would be that hysteric again. But always when I see young girls that scream for bands and stuff like this I don`t think it`s ridiculous or make fun about it, because I know exactly how it felt. Being teased about something that I loved, hurt. I would never do that, I think.

I just listened to Jewel Ayumi Hamasakis next single. I already heard parts of it through the Lumix commercial that was running on TV when I was in Japan in August. The song is so beautiful. I adore it. The life performance that I saw (must be PopJam or Music Station) is also great. It always amazes me how Ayu still has that passion, after being in the music business for such a long time. So I think Jewel is one of her best songs, I just adore it. And I`m really amazed how her voice got always better over the years. A song for XX is a completely different level of singing I think.

I really like the songs that OLIVIA does for the NANA Anime. A little pain is great and I love Wish and Starless Night. Even though I'm still not sure if it fits Trapnest, I really do like it, and I like the sound of OLIVIAs voice. I think it is completely Reira. Very good choice. And OLIVIA looks great as well. Really good looking woman...yesyes!

I think NANA will end quite soon because in the current chapters there are a lot present day chapters like with Nana gone and adult Hachi with child. I think the climax will come soon, and I'm not sure if I want to read that. Ai Yazawa will surely make a unsatisfying, realistic ending. :(

Well, with Fruits Basket and NANA slowly coming to the end, I don't really have that much interest in manga anymore. Well, let's just see waht will happen

ayumi hamasaki, take that, fruits basket, nana
