OK, I got way more comments for the LINE translation than I'd expected, so I'm sorry I can't comment back to all of you.  But I certainly enjoyed them, so thank you so much! :D

I've been thinking about this for a while, but always felt like maybe it's not my place to say anything, but since it's my journal where I put my thoughts down, here it goes ( Read more... )

I have been feeling rather down, and quick to tears.
But I'm OK.

Just wanted to say this because I haven't been able to comment back as much as I want to in my LJ as well as in g_says.

So, GACKT left Singapore, and the "OP" who was the target of the last wank on dears here and her friends had a very happy, intimate, cozy 10-minute farewell encounter with him at the airport terminal ( Read more... )

Phew, the recent discussion on the Singapore fans getting together to follow G has been quite heated.
I do have to say that the most recent post on dears did cross the line.
