Merry Christmas!

Sorry, I haven't updated for a looooooong time.

I've been busy with school, and so on...
So I forget to update my blog.

Anyway, yesterday it was Christmas Eve. I spend the day with my family.
We had a really good time, so I'm satisfied with the day.

The gifts I got at Christmas Eve!
(Plus a black jacket and muffler[scarf])

From left to right:
Well.. a tattoo xD
A harddrive
Sailor Moon-keychain
The Walking Dead vol. 2 (comic book)
Nail polish
Toffifee (Nougat candy)
2 drawings from a friend :3
A gift card to Åhléns
iPhone cover (bunny shape x3)
Earrings (it's an owl and ear cuff)

I'm so excited for getting the tattoo! I've already started with how it will look like.
I'm gonna get my under arm tattooed with the lyrics from the GazettE's song Baretta.

This is how it will look like. (Though I am unsure if I wrote it right, I will ask one who can speak Japanese fluently for help)

Anyway that was all for me!  And Merry Christmas everybody!

New pictures

Well, I haven't updated for a while. Might as well upload new pictures of me. :3

Day 26: Your favourite the GazettE quote?

My favourite quote has to be one with Ruki.
At the Stacked Rubbish Grand Finale; Repeated Countless Error live at Yoyogi hall.

No matter what happens, our relationship to you and to each other will remain the same. Please continue to believe in us and be faithful.

I don't know why, but I really like that quote..

Day 27: A the GazettE song which you can relate to the most?

 A song from the GazettE I can relate to the most..
Naraku. That song kind of relates to me, of what have happened to me once.

Answering 3 days! (the GazettE challenge)

I'm so bad at updating, but at least this challenge is almost at its end! :3

Day 23: Most memorable the GazettE moment?

Most memorable the GazettE moment...
Must be Tokyo Dome! At the ending, when they were all like crying, and being really happy.

I really loved that moment when they were all jumping together, and Ruki fell over Kai.
It was really adorable...

Day 24: Your favourite the GazettE clip/comment?

Favourite clip/comment...
Really hard.. cause I can't choose a favourite comment with them all! :/
BUT! I do have a favourite clip.. when Ruki and Uruha were going to make their own business cards!
I really love that clip, cause it made me laugh!

 

Day 25: Your favourite interview?

Hrm... favourite interview... this was a hard one! D:
I guess I will just have to take one of the recent one. When they were talking about DIVISION (Shoxx 235 - Album interview).
Cause Uruha made me go all "WTF?", and when Kai talked about his song that he composed, made me go all "Aawe!" :3

First school-day & my blog has a weird logic

Today I had my first school-day as a senior high school student.
To be honest, I'm a bit sad that this will be my last year in school. Mostly because my class and this school have been the best class/school I ever been in.
I LOVE my class, because NO ONE is leaving someone out, we always hang out together.

Anyway, today we got to know that our most hated teacher (we had during our first year) is back.
Of course none of us were happy about this, since nobody likes her. Luckily, we will not, or at least I will not have any class with her.

We only got information and so, so we didn't really do so much at school. But after lunch, we decided to go down town. Were we took a coffee pause at a café, before we looked in some stores. After that we walked around, until we decided to take a pause at a small mountain. Were we talked a lot of things, we had a really great time there. Then after that, we walked down town again, because Linda had to buy a present for her mom since her birthday is tomorrow. After that we went to McDonald's to eat, before we all decided to go home.

That was my first day in school.

Anyway, I was checking out my blog and its statics and so. When I found this.

How can a search word for Momo's dA account be connected to my blog? I posted this on my Facebook, and she saw it too. We have no idea how this can happen, or even get this! We're both pretty much WTF'ed about this! xD

// Bye Bye Nashimoto! ^-^ <3

Day 13 & 14!

Day 13: Your favourite the GazettE era?

My favourite era from the GazettE, when it comes to clothes. It has to be DECADE.
I LOVED their outfits during DECADE. But, when it comes to their sound.
It has to be from the era during NIL. The best songs comes from that era, but they still do great songs now.

Day 14: Your first the GazettE song?

 My first the GazettE song was actually Reila. One of my old friends let me listen to that song.
I loved it right away, well, they weren't my first Visual kei band I listened too. But, yeah, I loved that song, and started to listen to more songs and fell in love with that band.
So yeah, thanks to Reila, I started to love the GazettE.

// Bye Bye Nashimoto! ^-^ <3

Day 12: A the GazettE song you know all the words to?

Day 12: A the GazettE song you know all the words to?

Haha, wow..

Well, I guess I have to say Agony. The easiest song to sing a long with.
Even though I can Toguro, Taion, In the middle of chaos and Uncertain Sense without looking up the lyrics too.

But, for now I'll say Agony, since it was the first song I learned.

// Bye Bye Nashimoto! ^-^ <3

Day 11: Your favourite song over all?

Day 11: Your favourite song over all?

My favourite song over all. Is Carry?.
I also think I've said it in one of the earlier posts.
I honestly don't know why it is my favourite song, I just love it.
There's nothing so much special about this song (or.. Ruki's English is so bad in this xD).

// Bye Bye Nashimoto! ^-^ <3

Day 10: Your favourite song from DIM?

I know I should have posted this yesterday, but I kind of forgot! ^-^"

Day 10: Your favourite song from DIM?

My favourite song from the DIM-album has to be 13Stairs[-]1.
Even though DIM Scene is a favourite too.

But I choose 13Stairs[-]1, only because I love the guitar in that song, and the lyrics.
And the fact that everyone in the band is shouting in this one! xD

And again, the live version of this song is the best!

Album-version

Live-version

// Bye Bye Nashimoto! ^-^ <3

Day 9: Your favourite song from STACKED RUBBISH.

Day 9: Your favourite song from STACKED RUBBISH.

My favourite song from Stacked Rubbish has to be Calm Envy.
I absolutely love the calming guitar at the intro.
It has this calm and at the same time some kind of.. melodic feeling in it.
But, the lyrics is what got my attention.
It's so deep and sad, and I can sometimes.. connect with it.
Anyway, Calm envy is my favourite song from Stacked Rubbish.
But, if I have to be honest I love the live-version of it more than the album-version.

Album-version

Live-version

// Bye Bye Nashimoto! ^-^ <3

Day 8: Your favourite song from NIL?

Day 8: Your favourite song from NIL?

My favourite song from NIL is definitely baretta!
I LOVE that song! The best ballad they have in my opinion.
It's actually that great for me that I want the first chorus as a tattoo written in kanji on my arm.

But I'm too poor to make that tattoo plan now.  (´･д･`)

 Anyway, baretta is my favourite song from NIL!

// Bye Bye Nashimoto! ^-^ <3

Day 7: Your favourite song from DISORDER.

Day 7: Your favourite song from DISORDER.

 My favourite song from the album DISORDER is definitely Carry?.
It's my top favourite song with the GazettE! :3

Which most people don't know. But yeah, Carry? is the best song from DISORDER!

// Bye Bye Nashimoto! ^-^ <3

3 Days in a row! (the GazettE challenge)

Day 4: Your favourite mini album.

 My favourite mini-album has to be Madara!
Cause it's the mini-album that contains songs that are awesome, from their "old"-time.
(And Shiikureta haru, kawarenu haru is one of my fav. songs)

Day 5: Your favourite single.

I can't choose my favourite single! T^T
So I just say Remember the Urge-single.
I really love the song Chijou, is has the mystical but still depressed feeling in it, and Clever Monkey was so awesome!
Though, I didn't really like Remember the Urge that much :/

Day 6: Your favourite PV.

My favourite PV is of course Shiikureta haru, Kawarenu haru!
Great song, and great costumes... and the video was so... weird, that I couldn't help but to love it!
And Ruki's costume... I LOVE IT! <3

// Bye Bye Nashimoto! ^-^ <3

Day 3: Your favourite album.

Day 3: Your favourite album.

My favourite album with the GazettE has to be NIL. It has one of my top favourite songs in it (baretta). That album also was in my opinion their best era.
Where they really had the most awesome image, and sound.
Not that I don't like their new sound, but this era was truly the best, but at the same time it wasn't my favourite image-era. xD
Well, that was about my favourite album with them!!

// Bye Bye Nashimoto! ^-^ <3

Day 2: Who's your favourite member?

Day 2: Who's your favourite member?

My favourite member (from the GazettE), is of course Ruki.

Well, everyone (who knows me) knows I love singers. But to be honest, in the beginning, I actually liked Reita first.
Until a lot of Reita-fans disturbed me to death, and he became my least favourite.
But, it didn't took so long for me to actually like Ruki more, not only because of his looks.
I loved his voice, and not only in singing, but how deep his voice actually sounded in interviews.
And I love how he see see different things from his perspective. He's also a hard worker, which makes me all jealous of him. Cause even if I try to be one, I fail.

Anyway, that's just a little bit of why Ruki is my favourite member. ( ´ω`)

// Bye Bye Nashimoto! <3 ^-^

How and when did you discover the GazettE?

Day 1. How and when did you discover the GazettE?

I discovered the band through a friend I had, about 5-6 years ago.
I had just started to listen to J-rock/Visual Kei, and she thought I might like this band.
At first I thought they were cool, and listened to Burial Applicant and Reila.
Then, I wanted to know more about the band, like names and so. To be honest, I sucked at their names.
I had it so hard to remember Uruha and Kai's names. T^T

But eventually I learned the names, and I pretty soon bought their DVD's and albums, even magazines with them.

So yeah, that's pretty much how I discovered the GazettE.

// Bye bye Nashimoto! ^-^ <3

Sorry!

I'm sorry for not updating for a loooooong time! To be honest, I've been doing so much that I forgot to write on my blog! But to sum it up for you, I'll give you some random pictures!

Hectic week

Hello.

I have finally updated the days I've been missing.

Well, the reason why I have forgot to update my blog. Is because I have been doing so much this week.
Been working my ass off in school, cutting a silhouette of New York on 8 meters long fabric.
Working on a top for a person I'm going to give, as a gift for being inspiring and so (guess who? xD).

Here's the top (the print is handmade)

But, I'm quite satisfied. I mean.. I got an A on my Japanese vocally test which is a presentation of myself.

And I have been having a photoshoot, with Linda as my model. Got really awesome pictures of her.

Last weekend, I was out with Linda too. And walked out, taking pictures and so.
Here's a picture of me from that day.

And that's kind of all! :3

Day 16 - This is what I do on weekends

Sorry for not updating, but I promise, I'll update every day I missed now! ♥

So.. what I do on weekends?

I actually do nothing, really. It can start with waking up early.. too early.
The first thing I can do is to sit next to the computer, listening to music and checking up my facebook, twitter, tumblr and dA.

Later on, I'll eat breakfast with my mom and her boyfriend if they are home.

Then I maybe go out with friends, or go downtown. If not, then I'll continue sit next to the computer.

And it can go on like that, until it's really late...

And that's kind of what I do on weekends.

Day 15 - A person/celebrity you wish you would meet

A person/celebrity you wish you would meet
Sorry for not updating, but I promise, I'll update every day I missed now! ♥

I will choose 2 persons (both person and celebrity)

A person I really want to meet in real life, has to be the cosplayer Momo.

 (Well, credit for Momo, I took the pictures from her dA-account kawaiimomochan2006.deviantart.com)

Why I would want to meet her? It's not because she's an awesome Ruki-cosplayer. But because she's really a sweetheart. She's a really kind and nice person. Yes, I have been writing to her through her facebook and so. And not to mention that we have some things in common. So yeah, that's why I would want to meet her.

A celebrity I would want to meet.. well, duh... Ruki!

Do I even have to say more? I worship him, and praise him, for his art!
Enough said..

Day 14 - Your biggest dream

Your biggest dream

Sorry for not updating, but I promise, I'll update every day I missed now! ♥

My biggest dream. Has to be travelling to Japan someday, or even live there.

And what I also have said to some of my friends. Get an own farm, and having a lot of ducks.
That has to be my biggest dream, if I have to choose one of my dreams.

Day 13 - A picture someone else took of you

A picture someone else took of you

Sorry for not updating, but I promise, I'll update every day I missed now! ♥

So.. here's a picture my friend Michi took of me.

Day 12 - A picture of how your room looks like now

Sorry for not updating, but I promise, I'll update every day I missed now! ♥

So, this is how my room looks like now!

Day 11 - A picture of one you miss

A picture of one you miss

My turtle, Donatello/Mr.Kevin, I used to have. I really miss him, even if he was a simple turtle.

But, he could always make my day, with just walking towards me, and stay near me all the time. He never did anything than just being near me, letting me pet his head. He never bit me, like he used to do to the others. He always watched TV with me, whenever I watched something I liked. But.. unfortunately my mother couldn't stand him, and gave him away to someone else.

To be honest, I was really sad that day. Because I loved him as a pet, and I had and still have the dream of owing a turtle as a pet.

Day 10 - How does your future looks like?

How does your future looks like?

To be honest.. my future does not look so bright.

I'm really, and I mean REALLY lazy at school right now.

I'm getting a bit frustrated, 'cause of the things I have to do this month.

So, I have kind of given up on school, which also makes me think how I will do when I get a real job.

Speaking of a job, I haven't got a summer job yet. I got turned down by one of the works I searched for, but I'm still waiting for the other two.

But they don't seem to want to answer, and I really do need the money from it.

Mostly because I can stop thinking about not having to afford things.

But because I really want to travel, and get away from this country, and all the stress.

So yeah, at the moment my future does not look good.

Day 9 - In your bag there's...?

In your bag there's...?

In my bag there's always...

My iPhone (with earphones)

My keys

My wallet

Lip balm/Lip gloss

The picture I showed, aren't mine..

Day 8 - A picture of your wardrobe

Well, here's a picture of my wardrobe then! :3

It's really messy... XD

Sick, and mixed feelings

Well, I'm still sick. I have this horrible coughs that won't go away. So I find it hard to focus on things sometimes.

Anyway, yesterday I was with Michi and Miu (Sarah), we went to Miu's place and ate BBQ, watched Watchmen, jumped on their trampoline, took a walk and made some chocolate balls (? xD). We had a really fun time, and planned a bit for what to do in summer.
And I decided to wear my new blue eye contacts, just to see if they were comfortable, which they were.

Here's a picture of Miu, me and Michi! (and when I'm wearing my blue eye contacts) :3

Anyway, I'm feeling glad because I got to spend some time with them. And that I'm going to watch Dark Shadows tomorrow with some friends too.

But at the same time, I feel a bit angst. I can't help but to feel.. lonely. Not in the way when you feel you have no one there. Because I know I have friends caring about me and so. But I feel lonely in the way when you have a relationship with no one. And to then realize you have feelings towards a person you know you won't have a chance with makes it all worse. Well, that person made me feel good, and is nice and so. But I know there's no chance at all to go for it. Because there's the problem with the distance between us, living in 2 completely different countries. To then feel like you're also too ugly enough for that person, since that person is really beautiful. I feel like I just want to scream and then break down completely, for not being good enough. Not to mention that we haven't met at all in real life.
I have been okay with being single, and to want to stay like this. But, this person really made me feel good, even if I think that sometimes it's just because we joke around a bit.

It's hard to think straight when you just realize this, so.. yeah, I'm not feeling good at the moment.

And I should probably stop, because I don't want people to listen to my problems so much.

Sorry! ♥

Day 7 - Who is the funniest person you know?

Who is the funniest person you know?

Funniest person I know. It's really hard to say, because I think every friend of mine are funny. So I don't think I can really choose one of them, since they're all funny in different ways.

So I will stick with saying that all my friends are the funniest persons I know. :3

Day 6 - The blogs you're reading

The blogs you're reading

Well, I don't really read others blogs that much :/ (and I don't count Tumblr as a blog)


But, I do read some others blogs sometimes, when I'm bored or so, but they're only Swedish.


And those 2 are:


Addie Hero's blogg
Takanori's blogg


... and that's pretty much everything..

Day 5 - One picture of yourself from 1 year ago

One picture of yourself from 1 year ago

Well, I didn't feel that good yesterday, and was on my way to get sick again.
So I skipped doing day 5, but I'll do it today! :3

Here's a picture of me from 1 year ago!

Day 4 - One person you look up to

One person you look up to

Matsumoto Takanori aka Ruki (the singer of the GazettE).

Well, what do I need to say? He's an awesome entertainer, vocalist, song-writer, designer and composer. He knows what he's doing, and is really a hard worker, you can even say a workaholic. Besides that, he does really have a good sense of music and fashion, hence to his addiction to have expensive brands on his accessories and clothes. Pure hearted, knows how to deal with people sometimes. Besides his work-talking on Twitter and so, he can also be really dorky and funny there. Jokes around sometimes, which make you think that he's not only busy with work and so. There are more I just want to say about this awesome man. But I don't really want to be too deep into my writing about him.

Day 3 - Your friends

Your friends

So, today I'm going to write a little about my beloved friends. At least those I spend most of my time with!

First up, Ellie! (I don't have a picture of her, she doesn't like to get photographed)

One of my best friend. We have known about each others for about over 7 years now.

We first met at junior high school, thanks to another friend (who knew her, and was my classmate at that time). We can be really dorky at some times, and are really random together.

I don't even think we have secrets from each others, since we can talk about everything. :3

Next is, Sarah!

We got to know each others through Ellie. They were classmates when we all started high school, 3 years ago (I was in a different school though). And since both Sarah and I have an interest in Japan, Ellie thought that we should have met. It didn't took so long for us to get good friends. Anyway, with Sarah it's like being with Ellie. We can be really dorky, and really random when we are. :3

Next friend is, Michi!

It first started with me finding a picture of the singer Riku (ex. Phantasmagoria, Chariots) on a Swedish site. I immediately pressed on the picture and wrote that there was another j-rocker in our town (xD). We started to write a lot through that site, and eventually met at our town's library to hang out a bit. But, we kind of almost lost our connection for quite a while, until we started high school. Then we started to hang out a lot. Well, with Michi.. there are a lot of things that can describe us, we are really random when we are. And we can talk about everything, and I mean everything, when we are. I guess that during the time we've spent and got quickly really good friends, we really gain each others trust. :3

And next friend is, Linda!

Linda, my un-official wife (xD).  We first met in the middle of the first semester in the high school we're in (soon 2 years ago). Well, we didn't really talk that much in the beginning, even if I was talking a lot with the girls in our class in general. But, when I saw that her background picture of Sebastian Michaelis (Kuroshitsuji/Black Butler), I immediately mentioned that. And after that we started to talk more and more with each other. Now, we always hang out with the whole class at school, and sometimes after school. You can sort of say that I spend most of my times with Linda, since we hang out both during school and outside the school. We can really talk with each others, about really random stuff, sometimes perverted stuff too. :3

Next up is, Maya!

We first met at junior high school too. But not through other friends or so. We actually met through our German class. She always used to sit by herself at a table, and another friend and I felt that she looked so lonely. So we always sat at the same table as her. It didn't took that much time, to get to know more about Maya. And we got friends really fast. I can talk about everything with Maya too, and she is a person you really can gain trust with. We are really random and perverted, when we are, and always have fun and laugh. :3

Last is, Guren! (Not sure if I can use a picture of her)
She's actually an internet friend of mine. (xD) We met thanks to my the GazettE-forum for Swede's. And we got friends thanks to a roleplay she started. I don't think there's a day, when we don't chat with each others or so. (Maybe sometimes, when she has to focus more on her studies) We are really random when we chat and so, and I really mean random. I actually gain trust with her, and actually don't think I have any secrets from her. Anyway, we will actually meet next month, since we are (and the others except for Ellie) going to an event called UppCon '12. She will live with me, Linda and Maya at my sister's apartment. I'm really excited for that! :3
