being this moody is not an excuse
Aug. 2nd, 2009 11:08 pmLet's start with good news, so we don't have to end up giving out the bad news altogether. :D
Some of you probably already know this, but when I announced it at the time, it was still tentative -- and my mom still needed a little more convincing. But now, we're solidifying (for lack ofsleep a better term) the plans, and:
So, a question quickly comes to mind. Does it snow in Tokyo?
But ah, never mind that for now. A few of you lovelies have already gone to Japan (or might still be there), so really, a little help for a first-timer like me would be nice. :) A friend already extended help -- she's still here in the Philippines now -- and she said she'd be in Hachioji. She's my only hope for a reliable travel guide so far, lol.
And then, because I haven't done this in a while...

1. Radio. Well, actually it's more of listening to music. The only radio station I enjoy listening to is the one that plays old music. So I'm not updated with the new ones. I always feel nostalgic and I love that feeling. :D
2. Speaking of, Rock n' Roll. The Beatles is the easiest to relate here. I clearly think they're a great musical influence. And really, I'm more of a rock person rather than rap/hiphop/rnb person. Honestly, Sho is the only "rapper" whom I can appreciate wholeheartedly. :3
(Warning, the following three items are fangirling-related... people. LOL.)
3. James Roday. If you're watching Psych, you most likely recognize him. If you aren't,you should I'll tell you: He plays Shawn Spencer, a fake psychic who solves crimes through his extraordinary observation skills. One thing I could say about this dude is that he's amazing. And very funny.
4. Robert Sean Leonard or RSL. Ah, one of my heartthrob-type crushes. :3 He grew on me upon watching House, despite not being my favorite character the first time I became a fan. Well, obviously he's good-looking, so. Dr. James Wilson is still my favorite oncologist, whatever happens. XDb
5. Ryan Stiles. From Whose Line is it Anyway? Fame of course. To say the least, one of the people who have inspired me since I was younger, believe it or not.
6. Please forgive me for this one -- Writing. (Yes, I relied on the sound. XD) Since I was a kid, I've been finding ways to have an outlet for creativity; painting/drawing failed, instruments failed, and so there was writing. I've been doing it since I was first year in high school, and so far it's going well. :)
7. Romance. I'm a hopeless romantic. Enough said.
8. Reunions. I admit, I don't like parties. But if it's with everyone I know (and love), then why should I have a problem with that? And reunions also always give me that nostalgic feeling. :)
9. Rice. This is my being Asian. XD
10. ROCK YOU. One of my most favorite Arashi songs. :D
Ah~ my head's been killing me for a week now. ;___; I need to stay away from the computer... if I could. Work requires it. ;___; Good thing there's a non-working holiday on Wednesday.
And. May Corazon Cojuangco Aquino Rest in Peace. She was a great leader for us Filipinos.

I'M GOING TO JAPAN. FOR A WEEK. WITH MY SISTER. ON DECEMBER.
I actually like the idea. Christmas, ergo winter. It's humiliatingly true that people from the South are amazed when it's winter-time in the North. Even though I've already experienced snow before. 8DSo, a question quickly comes to mind. Does it snow in Tokyo?
