my fav pic from the A2-sized calendar;
getting version A too~
bleach 300 was... interesting.
go check it out yourselves;
no spoilers here~
finished black cat and its the anime with the best graphics till date;
the characters are designed very nicely with nice vivid and strong colours i like.
chronos number seven is really really cool =X
kinki kids' Φ album is... very different.
hip-hoppish is the best word, although i'm not saying its something i don't appreciate-
in fact, i'm addicted to the 'love in the Φ' song~
jlpt next week-
can i pass with 300 points and above?
strongly doubt so ><
:(
...all about work the past week.
asides from the late late nights, there was much to be frustrated and upset about;
but i'm not going into it.
no, i'm not happy-
even after receiving my 2008 bleach calendar in the mail and "ordering" the new ipod from the parents who are off to hk.
..and i will NOT forget to cut my toenails before wearing those pointy shoes ever again ><
the emo-ness that is tsuyoshi's book is really getting to me-
makes me feel that at least someone can put feelings i understand into words.
3 songs i've been looping on my dying creative zen all week:
KinKi Kids - Hello
KinKi Kids - 旅路 ~you're my buddy~
Hey!Say!JUMP! - Ultra Music Power
i don't know why i'm kinda hooked on a song sung by 10 boys with an age range of 12 to 17;
but UMP is such a bright and motivating song-
when i hear it in the mornings, it just makes me feel happy :)
fyi: they're the newest band to debut from the johnny's empire.
off to start looping the Φ album.

9:08pm:
shopping today!
unintended,
but got a pair of shoes to replace the ones which i wear to death and now falling apart,
and a finally, the laptop bag to replace the old one which more than one person has commented that its out of shape and should be retired immediately.
all this within 2 hours O.O
something must be happening.
breather time again;
after the stretch of rushing for finals, its almost done!!
which leaves the reporting pack and finalizing of the financials :)
been thinking of whether to take CFA in june.
pros:
- easier to jump ship to banks (which i'm not even sure whether i'd like working in there after doing their audit). and they don't pay as much as you think.
- its another professional qualification after all...
cons:
- may 2008 is the time when i'm doing interims for the reknown shit job with a june year end (won't say it here yet)--> no time to study.
- it cost a thousand plus bucks!! and i'm not paying so much to fail a paper with a passing rate of 30%(?).
- there are 3 levels in increasing difficulty to it.
- JETRO falls in june as well. studying for both is really too much if i qualify for JETRO in 2009.
decisions decisions.
slept much more than intended today.
after a 9hr sleep last night,
woke up, had brunch, did the chores, watched two episodes of anime and fell right back asleep at 2pm.
...and i just woke up.
coffee and cheesecake for dinner isn't helping much either.
(its my first caffeine shot in three days and i can't help it =\)
while my sleeping habits range from 3hr naps on weekday nights to 16hr slumbers on friday/saturday nights,
i try to keep sleeping hours on sunday as regular as possible;
in hope of not destroying the mood for monday and the week ahead.
darn.
i seriously hope i can sleep properly tonight.
finished yakuza moon-
contemplative book, that one is.
just threw a surprise birthday party for the little sis' 21st (although the actual day is but 11 days away) at our place.
her church friends liased directly with my mother about the plans and everything went smoothly;
although she had to be distracted to take a detour to get titbits from cold storage coz her friends arrived late to decorate the place haha.
...and she was really surprised
to find all her friends who were in the same afternoon church service as her at her own house even before she came back~
got all of it on video :P
but they had a great time :)
short trip to kino in the afternoon for some shopping.
intended to get manga, but for some reason i never end up doing so;
instead i got yakuza moon by shoko tendo which i just started reading and its good;
real-life account of a girl born into a top yakuza family.
and this:
which may prove really useful since it contains (horrors of horrors) things like this:
used up 60% of the vouchers for just those two books ><
including a green highlighter to make up the sixty cents shortfall.
things are just getting so expensive nowadays...
日本語能力試験の話にするんだ。
２００１年の古題をしたばかりで、特に簡単ではなく、驚くことになった。
思ったとり簡単だ。
文字の部分の中一問を全部間違えてにもかかわらず、その部分７５．５も取った！！ もう。。よくなれてかもしれないね。せめて今持っている教科書はまだ触れない T_T
意外に、聴解のほうは自身があるところなんだ。最初そのに対してかなりビビっているんですが、ジャニーズの番組をよく見ているわけかもしれないで、大体問題はなくなるんです。
イェーイ！！
大問題は最後の文法です。
最もつまらなくて、難しい部分です。＞＜
だが、読解は思ったよりオっケイだ。経済学とか、新聞みたいな文なら出来まででずいぶんうれしかった。
しかも、この一問は５分だもん！今回は２０問に四つだけ間違いった！信じられるでしょう？昨日も初めて見るですね。
はい、自分に褒めてたまらなくて止めておけば良い。ハハハ～
ちなみに、今回は３０２分です。
４級の３９６に超えなくても、めちゃうれしい。
以上の文に読み分からないなら ＾＿＿＾
仕事のほうはまだ落ちたまま。
まぁ。。。なにもできないから、経こんでいるわけにはいかないんでしょう？
最後は、いい曲にみんなに伝いたいんです：
V6 - I Give Smile To You
９月にリリースのアルバムに取って一番気に入れたんですが。
お楽しみに！
feels good to splurge on yourself :)
finally made the decision and now yours truly needs to watch the expenditure carefully.
but high class shopping yesterday and today was fun haha.
happy belated debut 12th anniversary (Nov 1) to V6!!!
don't talk to me about work.
i'm still VERY upset.
what i can do now is not to let it affect my performance for the next two hell weeks.
