Lasty entry for 2009
ADVANCE HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!
To my friends from many years back and to my new found friends this year, ARIGATOU! 2009 was definitely a memorable year of awkardness, non-stop flail, hapiness and other emotions I have spent over the fandom and some in real life!
I have always been lazy to write something plausible in here when my new year resolution last year was to write more random things in here. LOL. I ended up breaking that resolution and yeah I can count with my ten fingers the number of times I have written somthing in here! Ahahaha! So right why make a post like this?! Well I want to look back over at 2009 and see what I can see as my highlights for the year 2009!
*inserts random facts* my 2nd favorite number on the counting system is 9. My ichiban number is 8 ever since I could count. LOL. The Kanjani8 connection is just a welcome coincidence. *hides from flying tomatoes*
Yeah another countdown of doom!
9. the year has started with me watching JE countdown on keyhole.
It was the first time for me to sit on the computer on the eve of new year two hours before the actual New Year start in my country and actually viewing something live in another place namely Japan! Ahahaha! And I am willing to do sit here to watch this years countdown. keyhole will be again busy....
8. This year I have beening an active member of Asian Karaoke forums
In this forum I found my love for singing though I fail and met a lot of awesome people who loves to sing random songs. You choose j-pop, k-pop, c-pop, anime genres name it! If anyone love to sing also join us we are awesomesauce! Our covers had always been epic! Ahahaha!
7. Ugh.... I have to mention work here.
LOL. The man I admire the most, the chairman of the institution I have been working for the last 1 and 1/2 yr, resigned but well it doesnt make him a bad man but a responsible one since he is running for the next election. The good side about work is that I am getting used to work now matter how tiring talking to people, saying mundane things repeatedy at a daily basis but still I kinda feel fulfilled with what I do even if the salary sucks and unequal. ^^;
6. Meeting new fangirls real life and in here on the internet.
This is year is probably the year where in I hang out a lot with fandom friends real life and get to spend time a cafe wherein for a solid 4 hrs onwards we are flailing like crazy. Ahahaha! Also this year I have addedlots of friends from RL and friends all over the world where in I had some similarities and likes. TO everyone who added me here this year! Arigatou! I will try my best and continue to flail with everyone! XD
5. Layout change!
Yehey after a year of bumming around and wanting to do it finally I have started this year! Ahahaha! Though I have not finish what I want to put in here at least I have made something different and put some refreshing things I started to love this year. Ahem.... obviously I got into the YASUBA LOVE!
4. Another sad bit but well this made me a somehow stronger...
Our country was hit by one of the most unforgettable typhoon in my life. Mark my words ONDOY it will not forget you and I will bury you to the graves of doom! ARGH! That typhoon was the first ever that water was able to enter our house and it was at chest level! Damn it our house what high in normal circumstances! I had most of my treasured things damaged, letters when I was in grade school, high school and college, my most treasured year books (HS and college T________________T ), some of my well kept books and magazines I have since high school, mangas, and argh... my passport, treasured NWPD pamphlet, JE magazines and the pamphlet and tubebox of Big Bang DVD. Though that had happened I was able to thank the Lord I am alive made me realize that the presence and safety of my family is far more valuable than what I have lost materially that I can gain back 10 times more. LOL
and somehow made me look forward to a future with more determination and hope.
3. OMG I think this year I have spent too much on stuff.
Since I can do it I lavishly spent my salary on fandom goods, food, computers and all the things I like. No monies in my wallet. ;_; Next year I will try and save up LOL. I think having a cute piggy bank given by a friend will make me determined to keep some funds for the future! To Japan! :D
2.Fandom loves. Big Bang and Kanjani8! :D
I discovered how awesome Big Bang was at the end of 08 but my love for them grew with the new songs and stuff! Probably the only kpop fandom I can get into. But I still so many things to discover about the group!
KANJANI8 was one of most welcome discovery for 2009! Its probably the top of this list if I havent thought of my No.1. Ahahaha! I got into the eito fandom maybe a little after my birthday. Hmmm.. Come to think of it I got into the NEWS fandom at almost the same time 2 years ago after my depressing birthday. Anyways I am loving them more everyday. Thay are just cracklastic! Well just go over this post that says something about the boys and enlightened me! Also I can see myself loving Yasu and his awesomeness next year and loving more of his squeals and guitar playing!
Yasuba! I flail! I cannot get over it ... will never! I just found a 2nd OTP at the same level as my love for Tomapi!! Just too much sweetness and randomness at would always always make me squeal!
Clarifying things: though I have found new fandom, I would always always stick with NEWS as my ichiban group. Nothing will change cause they are too special! Tomohisa will always be in my fangirl heart and Shota sharing the same space! I wish there was more activities in 2009 for NEWS as a group but individual activities was a welcome distraction to the lack of it. >>
1. YUME... and MOVING FORWARD. As I said if I haven't though about this That above statement would be the final one. ROFL.
When I woke up this morning there was nothing special but a a question kept me thinking.... What should I do next year when its the last day of my 2009?! Hmmm.... I want to make some thing big in my life next year definitely.. Then it struck me that I really I want to go back to school even if it maybe impossible with work I will have to tweak my schedule. Oh yeah after a half of year thinking what I want to do. I already decided to take my 2nd degree instead of taking masters. I will do that after the 2nd degree that I am sure! I will be taking linguistics (most probably majoring in Japanese) since language appeal to me way back my first year of college but I never pursue it since I also like economics and I want to avoid anthro. But now I will not avoid but instead embrace it! :D
With this in mind I look forward to the next school year! And will be working hard! With that goal I don't know if I can be consistently fangirl and hangout at BT and online at AK. I don't even know if I can work or I have to be a full time student. Hmmm... lets wait and see but until that time (June 2010) I will be here. ^^;
Somehow learning Japanese one can considered as related to the fandom. ROFL. But more than that as my major since I fould myself for the first time loving talking to people I want more than ever to maintain the basics and the importance of language in our life. I want to learn more about those dying languages and well maybe be an agent on maintaining them. I can do it right?!
2009 was definitely one of the most eye opening year and memorable year for me! I hope everyone who had been a part of my life this year will continue to be with me till next year! I love you guys!
EDIT: I somehow stupidly put this post private for myself. I just realize it now. Ahahaha!
