the 2nd part of this week's himitsu no arashi is freaking funny! I secretly think that the staff wants to remind nino not to sit down during the recordings of mannequine 5 that's why they had this part la! Must watch!

really stupid, but funny!


And VS arashi!!!! I used to not like VS arashi because it was kinda boring, but I guess anything with arashi will still be kinda interesting.. haha arashi and gackt plus ohno's birthday!

Okay, first happy birthday ohno! haha, yeahh.. I dont know when you became my ichiban, but I think sho might be over taking you soon.

Anyways, after missing the himitsu no arashi episode (the araoke one) because I fell asleep half way, I finally downloaded and watched it! And guess what, I'm feeling tired from all the laughing!!!!! OMG, those people were so lucky! I'll probably will never have that kinda luck!

Anyways, Mr Children concert this Sunday and if the auction goes well, I might be going for Kinki Kids's concert as well!! Not exactly a big fan of kinki kids, but still, since they are coming to fukuoka, might as well watch right. JE some more.. haha.. Hope I get the tix :)

Oh and btw, the dl speed for megaupload was really fast!!! Like 1100KB/sec!!! but the mediafire links were normal, like 100KB/sec..

VS arashi and Himitsu no arashi tonight.. oh and haneru no tobira's parody of arashi was really funny, but too bad it was really kinda short :(

Finally got internet in my room!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm very happy because one, I got internet in my room, two, my presentation is over, three, I'm going to Mount Aso/Kumamoto castle (=travelling) on Friday, four, Mr Children's concert on Sunday!!

Probably gonna update my wordpress later! Go there for more updates! This place will probably be more of my fangirling!!

Liar Game 2
- Akiyama is really coool !
- I'm starting to dislike Kanzaki Nao and the girl from the other team

JIN
- nice drama, although there are parts where I dont understand

My gal
- as much as I like Aiba, I really dont like how the girl acting as his daughter calls him 'masamune kun' and the story is kinda slow = not watching it

:) yeahhh, happy day! according to the news horoscope ranking, cancer is 4th today! Lol..

I've been writing this in my wordpress, updated my status in fb, and then writing it again here..if all things go well..........I will be attending Mr Children's concert!!!!!

I guess other than Arashi, Mr children is really one concert I want to go, and thank god that my friend reminded me of Yahoo auctions, after I failed to get tix through balloting. And so, yeahhhh, mr children!! Just that I'm more familiar with their new songs and know nuts about their old songs..

Anyways, I love my handphone! I think I mentioned it several times, but yeahhh, I love it! On top of watching tv, I can like record tv programmes on it! Kinda glad I got this instead of the 0 yen one which everyone else is using, because the 0 yen one cant watch tv at all! haha.. yeahh..

and yeahh, 2 more weeks to internet in my room... like finally .. after almost 2 months wait...

I realised that I didnt post my previous post.. but anyways.. I have been updating at my wordpress (okay, not that frequently).. so you can go read it..

url: http://nikoueikou.wordpress.com

anyways.. arashi is like everywhere.. prob not as much as in tokyo, but when I went to the supermarket today, arashi is like on the cover on all the tv magazines!!! If I had my way, I'll buy all of them, but nahhh, gotta save money and ended buying only 1..

matsujun's KFC advertisement makes me want to eat KFC too!

there's VS arashi, Himitsu no arashi today!!

and haneru no tobira with Matsujun yesterday was quite funny! Watched the red theatre, but fell asleep after 30 minutes..

my girl, music station, VVV6 tomorrow

the only sad thing about my television is that it cant receive NTV for some reason, that means that I can only watch arashi no shukudai kun from the small screen of my television :(
and I cant watch zoom-in super!! so every morning I watch mezamashi news.. but the bad thing about having a tv in your room is that I cant concentrate on my home work!!! haha.. keep watching tv!!!

okay, my korean friend is coming over to watch VS arashi together! Till I get internet in my room!

Okay, I've been updating over at my wordpress, but i guess i should do a short post over here as well..

I'm fine over here and school's starting next next week(somehow i dun wish school would start so soon :( )

I cant believe it's so soon. Anyways, I wont be replying to comments/ read my flist till I reach Japan/have internet..

:)

I liked how he said at 0:59 that he wants to be like Sho :) He acted in this year's taiga drama, tenchijin as the child version of the main character and is also in several other dramas and commercials :)

I took leave on my second last day of work to do stuff and I must say,yesterday was great!

Okay, I guess the day didnt start off really good, coz I got lost while finding my way to the japan embassy, which was kinda ulu. So I had to take a cab down, and the uncle was really nice. He forgot to press the meter and I ended up paying $4, which was quite reasonable. (He told me I can just pay him $3/$4, but considering that the starting fare was $2.80, $3 would be too little..) Then I took a cab down to holland village to check out the restaurants over there. And then I went to school to meet some students from Hiroshima!

After their little lesson about hiroshima dialect, they were free to do any stuff. I ended up following a group who wanted to go sentosa with 2 other friends. And guess what, on the bus ride to vivo, I found out that 1 of the girls is really into arashi and is in their fanclub!!!!!As in, yeahh, I know several japanese who likes arashi, but they arent in their fanclub are never went to their concerts. So she is like the first japanese I know who likes arashi as much, or even more than me! We got really excited talking about arashi on the bus ride!!

Sentosa was, erm, okay, just that singapore's weather really sucks a lot! Yesterday was really hot and humid, not really nice for walking around.. Since the girls wanted to go by cable car, we took the cable car. It was my first time taking it as well! We went to the Merlion and dolpin lagoon. The girls were really nice and they paid for our admission to the dolpin lagoon/underwater world.. but the really sad thing is that we couldnt go to the underwater world because of time constraints :(

So after sentosa, I had another appointment with 2 girls who are also going to kyushu university! One is going for Japan in Today's World (JTW) and the other is going for a law masters programme. We met at this bar along Bali Lane near Bugis. I think I drank on an empty stomach and got kinda red. I felt a bit tipsy as well, even though I only drank like 500ml of beer.. Well, I had the same beer and another cocktail last friday but I felt totally fine then.So I really think it's the drinking on an empty stomach thing, which I shall not attempt next time..

In conclusion, I had fun yesterday!!! And today is my last day of work!!! Like finally, after 10 weeks!!!!!!!!! I can finally sit down and start packing plus asking my friends out and preparing to go to japan!

1. Havent posted for a long long time! But I do read my flist, just too lazy to post..

2. Leaving on the 29th September 2009, 0100, SQ656 to Fukuoka, Japan! The other girl going to kyudai is taking that flight too! Just that she's taking business class (using miles) and I'm taking economy. Hopefully by joining the frequent flyer and that the business class isnt full, I get a free upgrade to business class (but it's like totally impossible!)

3. Body shop sale at plaza singapura! I spent like $50 there! Quite worth it :)

4. 2 weeks and 4 more days to the end of work!! I woke up at like 8.20am today when usually I leave the house at 8.10am!! But was only late for 8 mins!

5. And about work, the other girl going to kyudai with me might be joining me for work for 2 weeks! And that means that I dont have to go for lunch alone for the last 2 weeks of work!!

6. GC was great, even though I only attended the night sessions!

7. The Saturdays of August are really busy! Had a dinner on the 1st sat, chalet on the 2nd sat, a birthday party (which was the same place as the chalet) on the 3rd and another birthday party this coming sat!

8. Band medley of arashi's songs posted at lj is really really nice!! Can you imagine one song just for arashi's songs!Reminds me so much of the days when I was in band!

9. module mapping kinda suck. Especially when I really dont know much about what I can and might be taking over there and I have to show the prof stuff...

I really really dont like it when people just upload allllll the photos they have taken onto facebook. Like cant you do some simple selection and NOT upload photos which are blur and repeated and doesnt really flatter the person in the photo! Like seriously. It's really sian to see all the not-so-nice photos of you on the world wide web and you cant do anything but to just untag. Rarrr.

For me, if the photos I take are blur, I will just delete it and not waste any space in my hard disk.

Haha.. just some random rants here :)

Oh, and I had a great time with amatsuki tonight!! We talked like from 7pm to 10pm! Really nice listening to her experiences in Japan :) Take care in Canada okay!!

I spent the weekend that just passed home alone! And I realised that it's actually kinda dpressing, like you go home and no one is home and will be going home. Anyways, the rest of the family went to Bangkok for a short shopping spree! I couldnt go because I had a dinner with the people who took care of us when I was in Hiroshima in June! I guess I could just go along with my family and miss the dinner, but it's a rare chance that they even come to Singapore... But, the shopping spree sounds great!

And back to the dinner, it was held at the Chinese restaurant at Miramar Hotel. The food and service there sucks! At least I know where not to hold my wedding dinner now! Anyways, it was a great time catching up with the internship people!

After the dinner, we went over to Harry's bar at esplanade to have some drinks with the hiroshima people. I guess it was good and bad, good because I half expected that they will treat us (even though we are in Singapore), bad because if we asked one of the guys to come, the other 2 will have to come and 1 of the guy is like the president of the Hiroshima Singapore Association and we found out he is like 80 years old, so we didnt exactly know what to talk to him as well.

I saw some vj friends over at Harry's Bar, which was a pleasant surprise. Seriously speaking, I'm not close to my jc friends at all (except for like maybe audrey and yiyun), but it was still nice seeing them there.

And came sunday, which was national day and I spent it at home! Haha,watched the national day parade, which was as usual, nice. The only thing that I didnt like was the remix of the old ndp songs which kinda suck. I rather they stick to the old and nice tune they used to had instead of mixing all the songs into 1.

Yays for this week coz it's a short week! Public holiday on Monday, half day on Wednesday and off on Friday! So work for this week is just Tuesday, Wednesday morning and Thursday!

I'm actually writing some stuff in here! Haha, been lazy to update this blog coz there isnt anything happening recently..

Hmmmm... I actually dont know what to update about...okay, work now is as usual boring, but 4 weeks and 2 days have passed and I'm left with another 5 weeks and 3 days, which I hope will pass by quickly.

Met up with 2 of my uni friends today and we had a nice chat over dinner at Din Tai Fung, which actually isnt that expensive. The 3 of us spent less than $60 and for nice xiao long bao, it was quite worth it.

Other exciting stuff coming up are dinner with the people from Hiroshima Singapore Association(the people who made my homestay and internship possible) are coming to Singapore! And we are having some dinner at Miramar hotel! Looking forward to meeting them!

National day on Sunday! Erm, I dont actually watch NDP recently, but still love songs like 'Count on me Singapore', 'Stand up for Singapore', 'Home' which arereally nice :)

Next week's Hiroshima internship chalet!! haha, gonna have lots of fun with them :)

Looking at my August schedule, I think August is gonna be busy!

Following from the previous post on how he lost my camera and spent $90 on a bag, my dad was telling him in the car and asking why he spent about $600 in less than 2 months. I'm like 0_0, you spent $600 in less than 2 months! Okay, for your info, my brother is a poly student and transport plus food and everything else doesnt need $300 per month plus the weekly $50 allowance. And my family isnt exactly rich, like we have more than enough for our daily expenses, enough money to pay for the tertiary education for me and my siblings, but that doesnt mean we can spend as if money is like water.

From what I heard from my sister, my dad gave him his atm card was because my cousins told my dad that he was complaining in his blog that he doesnt have enough money! Like what the crap, I'm sure the money he has is more than quite a number of people already.

Another thing that I am super pissed off is that he wrote in his blog "since my grandma coundn't cook since her legs are troubling her, my dad now gives me 30 more dollars to spend on dinner... whooh... thank God.."
Like you thank God because you have 30 dollars more to spend because you grandma isnt feeling well!!!! Is 30 dollars more important than your grandma's health?! I rather not have that 30 dollars and my grandma being healthy. I dont know, but it seems like he sees money as really really big.

This brings me to my grandma, whom I guess isnt in the best of health recently. I guess age is catching up with her, not sure of her exact age, but I guess she is about 70?? So her body parts are slowly giving her more problems, just pray and hope that she will be alright. I think the protective layer between the joints at her knees are worn out, so according to my dad, it's her bones that are like rubbing against each other and is giving her quite a lot of pain. I'm just kinda glad that I got leave today and went to visit her for a short while.

Talking about my leave today, I went to school for some pre depature sep talk, which was not exactly helpful, but since I wanted to fill up my medical check up form, might as well go school. Thank god the people at the uni health centre allowed my medical checkup taken in feb to be used again, but I had to pay like $10 to see the doctor. But, at least I got some cream for my ezcema.

A kinda long post already, but just wanna write a little stuff about yesterday's NUSA1 gathering organised by Angelina! Thank god for her for organising :) Had a great time talking to them. I never thought that I could enjoy their accompany so much (not that they are boring friends, but I guess it's my own problem as well??)

Just a photo to end this post :)

missing shuyi (leeyang joined us later!)

pissed off at my brother. Just got to know from his blog that he actually lost his bag (not sure about the stuff inside) and he got a new billabong bag at $90!! Like my most expensive bag was only $70 and that was bought when I was working! My brother isnt even working and he spends like nobody's business. My dad gave him an atm card recently, and I thought it wasnt a very right move though. He actually has been receiving $50/week since sec 2 (I think). He is in poly now and I don't think he actually does need so much money.

Okay, but writing this, I must also confess that I'm also guilty of this. I guess the main difference is, he doesnt know how to limit himself to the max price he can spend on a single item. Like for me, I will never buy a $90 bag (for now, since I'm still a student) and the max I will spend on clothes is around $50 (for top) and $60 (for bottoms).

Anyways, I bought a pair of adidas sneakers today for $69.90! Actually, I didnt want to get it, but the person thought I was getting it, plus it was the last day of sale, so I just went to get it (since I am working now, I just need to spend lesser for the next few weeks)

pic of my sneakers taken from online (doesnt look very flattering, but i kinda like it)


I actually wanted to get another seriously cool pair, but there wasnt my size :(


And I've been noting down how much I spend each day (after effect of hiroshima internship. I dont know why, but I feel weird not writing down how much I spend and wanting to collect the receipts) So at least I have an idea on how much I am spending and know when to restrict myself :)

I'm so lazy to now to write aout stuff. I think I have stuff to write about, but I cant really remember them now!

-Going for a freshman orientation camp tonight, so wont be around for the weekend.
-Starting work next monday. Thanks to my sister's recommendation of her job which she ended on Tuesday.
-BOSS is really nice to watch! I dont kow, but I just like the characters and how cool Amami Yuki is. Plus this is the only drama where I can watch the whole opening part without forwrding! Alright by Superfly is cool!



-Other than BOSS, I think Shiroi Haru is a nice watch, although my friends whom I went to Japan with found it a little slow I think. Personally, I liked it a lot (minus the ending) though. Coz Abe Hiroshi and Ohashi Nozomi were quite good in it. I finished The Quiz Show as well, and it was not bad! I gave up on Smile, coz it was just too depressing and kinda boring.

-I wanna go for Natsumatsuri because I've got my yukata!! But it's on a Saturday :( Anyways, I saw a similar looking yukata in Takashimaya selling for $189 when I bought it for 4200yen ($64!) in Japan (okay, the yukata was on sale, I think it's normal price is the about the same as sg)

I guess that kinda sums up my random updates.

Back from Japan and is tired from all the packing! There's a piece of good news and also bad news. Usually I will tend to want to know the bad news first, but this time i need to share the good news before the bad one (okay,its not really bad bad though)

Okay, good news is, I just received my letter of confirmation from Kyushu University, so it's confrmed that I will be going to Japan for exchange this october!

And the bad news is, I will probably be reaching Fukuoka on the 28/29 September, just 10 days after arashi's concert in Fukuoka!!!So I wont be able to see them in Fukuoka!

So nw I can only hope that I can go for either hokkaido, tokyo or nagoya concerts, but getting of tickets will be difficult :(

I'm slacking in the office now! Last day of internship and because of the nature of my company, I dunno who will be in the office when I leave.. Dunno whether to take photos with them as well.. kinda lazy, but dunno leh, never take photo a bit sad also..

If any of the hiroshima internship people is reading this, thanks for celebrating my bdae in advance :) appreciate it a lot.. may be I will write more about it in wordpress...

So now I've got until 5pm to slack.. supposed to go out with someone, but he hasnt come back yet.. hehe Another person brought me out coz she thought I looked kinda bored..haha, and in the end we went to some hotel near the sea and had free high tea coz she knows someone over there!

hehe.. lucky me :) 1 more hour left!
