the power of hiromichi

I am still not finished watching 'ROMIO to JURIETO'. I can't believe that Id be finishing this modern Shakespeare dorama special of about 2 hours(?) in 3 or even 4 installments. It's just so un-Tackey fangal of me tsk.

Last night, I was able to reach this part and with due respect to Nagasawa Masami, I just want to write about it coz I find it funny and bizarre. Like I didn't expect it at all and it just shot me to a sudden burst of *lmao*...

Seriously, who'd expect that the naive, demure JURI would jump off from her room's balcony on the second floor, wearing her signature girly skirt at that (thank God for bloomers! XDDD), land straight on her knees on very hard concrete and still survive, leaving only her hair in minor shambles???!?! (O..O) I thought I was watching WONDER WOMAN in action XDDD And all it took was this ->

So I just want to say, MORITA HIROMICHI, you are a walking trigger to single women who's got balconies in their houses. Thank goodness I don't have a balcony in mine ^^

Now doesn't that remind you of an ongoing deodorant ad campaign (which I like btw) ----> he just turns nice girls naughty. And makes them believe that they could fly hahahaha~

salvador dali in our midst

Tonight we play a guessing game. Based on these drawings, guess who got the best board whack after for having a "hidoi" drawing *lol*

Hmmm, Drawing no.1 was good. Looked like Kazuko-chan if you squint a bit or when you imagine her in one of her worst days hahaha. Drawing no.2, probably looked like Kazuko-chan ....... that is if I hold my breath really long until air goes up my head and I start having hallucinations ahahahahaha~ Chou evil me~ Drawing no.3, sugoooooiiiii yo~ That definitely would remind me of Kazu-chan. Clearly we know which drawing Kazu-chan likes the most ...... AND THE LEAST dakara our prized loser got this ---->

That *WHACK*, of course, came with a looot of Kazu-love haha. So we've once again bear witnessed to Takizawa's amusing, surreal, artistic skills *lmao*~ I never doubted that he's got a Dali in him hehehehe~

guess who's back?

No, it's not Backstreet Boys nor Slim Shady :p It's BAKANISHI and from K•TTUN, it's KATTUN once again (^-^) Trish, may I ask you to please cover your eyes hehehee~

Anou saa JinJin, you went to America to study english right?! So I guess the one who subbed what you said is the one who's English-challenged?! He must be *lol* Anyways, here is a translated excerpt of JinJin's interview appearing with the group. Of course, with a few side comments by moi:

Other members have certainly developed themselves, but what do you think you got?
JIN: I stayed abroad... so I think something about me became stronger. Etou JinJin, just how strong are we talkin' here?! XD

Mentally?
JIN: I guess so. I can't tell myself.

Compared to how you felt before going to abroad, do you feel anything different towards your job? And also, did you mind KAT-TUN's activities while you were there?
JIN: Yes. I checked it on the Internet. So he checks on the internet too. Did he see all the rumors about him circulating then? What does he think of it, I wonder.

You were worried about KAT-TUN without you?
JIN: No, it wasn't like that kind of anxiety. I just wondered who was singing my part of the songs. Ueda was singing it. I thought "Uwaaa." It sounded fresh and cool. *coughNARCISSISTICcough* No wonder, you and Tackey are good friends coz birds of the same feathers are....friends hehehehe~

What about your feelings towards your work?
JIN: I'll work remembering what state of mind I was in when I came began working.

Please give a message to your fans in English. *JinJin gulps + trembles* hahaha~
JIN: In English?...Message?....Eh? (Kame tells him something)...HALLO.

Didn't it sound very Japanese? I second that Mr. Interviewer!
JIN: No. It sounds very different from how it sounded before I went. It sounds more like hello. Im sorry. Hmmmm....

Well, whatever JinJin. Im still happy that you're back. I can't believe Im saying this but I do miss hearing your falsettos so do your best your work ne~ XDDD and all the best to KATTUN. Yoooosh!

post macau

From left to right, we got ANDY + JACKIE + TACKEY (gorgeous!!!!) + SNOOTY (for rhyming purposes hehehe~) + JACKIE + SMILEY (^_^). Tackey mixed and mingled with Hongkong actors when he went to Macau early last year and he looked every inch a superstah! I was just reminded when he is sporting his shorter and darker 'do these days. Im really a big burunetto no Tackey fan coz his fair, flawless skin shines all the more against a dark frame of locks. Just one question...

Could the guy in the black suit with the corsage be Tackey's infamous manager?! *lol* JOHNNY-san, is that you???~~~ Coz from news of before, when Tackey flew to Macau last January '06, he only came with Manager-san (erm... that means Johnny right?!) and from the looks of these fotos, he sure knows his way around. He was actually introducing Tackey to some HK folks at the party on the first frame. So could it be? Sorry, I have a JOHNNY QUEST (not the western comic book character nor the animated show). Mission is to find the face to the name as Johnny is controversial himself (the paedo issues thrown at him *GULP*). Not that my life would be any different but just wanna see the man who churns the Jpop boyband factory. Same feeling I get with Tackey's 'GM to Takirengou LTD.' KOUTAN. Curious.....very curious *ala Snape*

Anyways, Im off to another important mission so blogger, dun miss me too much ne~ JA!!!

para sa 'yo ang laban na 'to

Just finished watching the MANNY PACQUIAO - JORGE SOLIS WBC International Super Featherweight match on both SOLAR and GMA channels. Not really into this sports but with the family watching the game and getting excited over every Pacquiao jab, hook and punch, I was glued to the TV myself. It's undeniable that Pacquiao a.k.a PACMAN had a hard time with Mexico's undefeated Jorge Solis on this. He admitted it himself as he was aware of all the straight punches he got on the face. He even got a cut at his left brow from an 'accidental' headbutt on the 6th round. To be honest, I wasn't too sure if Pacquiao would win it this time. Jorge Solis seem to have studied Pacquiao's moves well and he dodged the punches that Pacman threw at him on earlier rounds. He was even able to squeezed in a few straight punches to Manny in between. He consecutively punched him on the face on one of the rounds but Manny was able to recover. He K.O-ed Solis on 8th round with a hooked jab that met Solis' dodges. Solis fell twice and Pacquiao kept the title.

So I am joining the rest of the country in saying, CONGRATULATIONS to our very own Manny Pacquiao for making us proud again. I hope you stick to this career rather than move to politics. POLITICS here is just pure evil so even the saints of saints can't be left untainted.


BIT OF TRIVIA: Did you know that the day Manny Pacquiao's fought with Erik Morales last November '06 was recorded to be one of the days with least crime in Manila?! I guess the criminals and the criminal-minded are big Pacquiao fans hehehehehe~

i got a 'hanamuke'

Just taking a time off work to say--- Isa, I looooove your Easter greeting. That was a pleasant surprise ne~ I found 'it' sitting on my bed when I got home last night and I wasn't expecting anything. DOMO ARIGATOU GOZAIMASHITA! m(_ _)m Much as how tempting swiss chocolates sound, it was a wise decision not to send them over coz it might have melted on it's way here if ants haven't gotten to it first. But the alternative --- well, you know I LOVE IT!!! *muacks* *muacks* *muacks* You're not trying to convert me completely are you?! *lol* Anyways, for someone who just got a 'farewell gift', why am I still so happy and giddy and oh-so-thankful?! Well, it's because this is the 'farewell gift'---->

W-INDS ハナムケ (HANAMUKE/Farewell Gift) (^-^)

Not many of you know that I have taken a liking to listening to W-INDS songs. Well, only to a few W-INDS songs I've heard care of my very nice and sweet prize abjudicator *wink* *wink* And when I was fighting with insomnia last night, it was my companion. Up 'til this very moment, ハナムケ is still playing in my iTUNES. I loooove it!!! KEITA + RYOHEI + RYUICHI joutou! I can't help come up with these while watching the DVD clips coz it's just so obvious.

JOHNNYS + W-INDS SEPARATED AT BIRTH?

Now tell me if they truly are separated at birth coz these pairs could be casted as identical twins in a dorama hahaha~ Wait, do W-INDS act too?! (O.O)?

Anyways, before I go, here is W-INDS' 'HANAMUKE' mp3. Highly recommended for your listening pleasure (^_~) ISABELLE <3333


PS: MAU, your 'surprise' shot me in a different level. That one I'm still trying to recover from hehehe~ If you dun see me here, you know what I'm up to. Right now, still trying to be clear-headed but will be emailing you soon.

the calm before a storm

O-kay--- I have to keep awake until my tummy gets settled from tonight's seafood extravaganza haha~ Mom and Dad just came back from Cavite and when they returned, they brought with them tahongs, shrimps, crabs and oysters. And Mom cooked them all coz she said they're best eaten while still fresh. I'm rather feeling sleepy after having my fill but sleeping after a food binge is just zettai ni no-no. I'm thinking of capping the night of with ocha so I won't be waking up in the middle of the night with indigestion *lol*

Anyways, tomorrow is gonna be back-to-work day and I feel like I wanted to cry (T-T). Nerve-wracking days are here again so I go watch TxT rabu-rabu on Domoto Kyoudai now coz that for sure, would make me feel better ^^ Thanks Sann! (^3^)



PS: Anne-chan, welcome back (though not here-back but there-back. Gets?!) from your Tokyo escapade. Thanks for calling me from there at 2AM to tell me your stories :p Thanks very much too for those Tackey pasalubongs. Buti na lang nag-stopover kayo sa Tower Records before you left. SUBARASHII hahaha~ I know you won't resist not getting any Matsujun and dun blame it all to me and my fangirl streaks. You know too well that you have it in you :p Looking forward to your CHERRY TREE fotos :p

egg-joy!

and he keeps going, and going, and going, and going, and going, and going, and going, and going ......... *lmao*

It's 3 hours to the Easter mass that I will be attending with the family which means I've got 2 hours of sleep to relish. I'm gonna visit Mikoy after since he lives off a few blocks away from the Church and see if what my bro and sisters told me is true. They said that Mikoy doesn't reply to our doggie whistle anymore and he's become a snob (T-T) Oh parting is such sweet sorrow~ Dithers suddenly mouthing Shakespeare??? Can you guess why?! teehee~ Looking forward to the Easter lunch later. FOOOOOD!!!!!! YUM! YUM! YUM! YUM!

talking japanese

My friend Anne-chan is going to set her first steps into the land of the sushis and much as I wanted for us two to see Tokyo together for the first time, I am very happy that her first Tokyo adventure would be during Ohanami festival. She's always wanted to see the cherry blossoms which are non-existent in our tropical islands. Just too bad that poor me can't afford to go there with her right now. It might have been a blast to get lost there together but I know Anne's gonna have a blast on her own. She's bound to get into the unexpected ones ^^ I hope you have lotsa fun ANNE-chan~ And oh, please do bring me a Tackey (^.^)!!! hehehehe~

--- *(^____^)* ---

I am glad seeing Tackey looking good and genki after the nose accident. When he had his nose accident, I was so scared to find what 'damage' it could have brought his beautiful profile. I wouldn't be ready to forgive that stairs nor the laptop if anything changed *lol* And so it was the first thing that came to my mind when I watched the NEWS ZERO clip from BON-chan's (thanks BON!) Im sooo happy that he is looking just as himself ---- KANPEKI. The back-to-black hair is an added bonus. Kinda reminds me of his Enbujou days. Tsuba's bedhead look is also suteki. Once again we are reminded that they could just get away with anything ne~ If I were to sport my hair like that around here, Im sure to be chased with a hairbrush *lol*

--- *(^____^)* ---

Last Tuesday, I met up with another Tackey fan from around here. Even if it was just the 2 of us, we lost track of our time talking about THE 'topic' we love best *wink* I showed her the latest TxT Calendar and she talked about the latest doramas she had been watching. Before we know it, we spent almost 3 hours chatting and Im not even halfway my dinner yet. We were the last ones to leave the place and when we were just about to go our separate ways, I just realized that I forgot my takeouts---my delicious Temaki rolls!!! *slaps forehead* Yeah, blame Tackey for these sudden bouts of amnesia haha~

--- *(^____^)* ---

I am finishing the last episodes of 'HANA YORI DANGO 2' (thanks to Via). I just cant help comparing it to 'Meteor Garden 2'. I am quite sure that a lot of HYD2 fans would disagree with me (Via included V(^-^)V) for saying it but if I would have to pick, I'd still go for MG2. Although I know that the endings may not be the same (thanks to spoilers I've voluntarily read). I read that HYD2's ending is a little more interesting. But it must be that Jerry's DAO MING XI character has stuck to me like flypaper since I've seen it first and enjoyed it immensely that up 'til now when F4 is mentioned, it is still Taiwan's F4 that comes first in mind. But Matsujun is also good in HYD + HYD2 as DOMYOUJI. The rest of the HYD2 cast have improved since HYD and they have given justice to their roles. It's always a treat to hear them talk in English *lol*. I intend to finish the whole series this vacation and Im sure to enjoy the ending (^-^)

--- *(^____^)* ---

Funny that when friends see me these days, they are reminded of Japan. I've never been there and I was so sure that I don't have the word 'JAPAN' written across my face but I guess all these Tackey-craziness get around in my circles. This I realized when a friend has been talking about anime with me for some time and even asked me to watch some with him (Im not big on anime but I just couldn't break his otaku heart so I just kept saying that Im busy XDDD). Another friend asked me what the best fashion mags for men are in Japan (aside from 'MEN's NO-NO', I'm clueless. If anyone here can help me, that'd be great coz WINK-UP, MYOJO, POTATO, POPOLO just won't do! *lol* ). One let me listen to this Japanese defunct electonica band called 'Super Cars' and I have to say I'm liking it (too bad they are now, as I mentioned, defunct). A friend from work is getting back to her Naohito Fujiki-craze when she came back to do temporary work for my department. These and a lot others got me to thinking, could I have been talking about Tackey way too much?!(^-^)? Could it be?! Oh I wonder hee-hee-hee ~ ~ ~


PS: Thanks to the Lenten Season, I had the time to update (^_^)

our cabbage patch kid

Yesterday, I went to my nephew's kiddie party at Jollibee Libis. He just turned 1 though he looked like a 2-year old. Needless to say, he is a big boy and you know what comes with big baby boys ----> CHAOS and an accident about to happen *lol* Migs loves to reach for things and puts them into his mouth. It's either that or he throws them around. He fancies tugging his ate's braids until she cries. He throws a tantrum when he wanted to practice walking. And he stuffs himself up with his favorite french fries while making a mess. But of course, he is a darling. He looks at you with his big, innocent eyes and you are once again fooled hehehehe~ Kids are such expert manipulators that you need not train them. Our Gio is already starting with us and we are his puppets on strings XDDD

Going back to the party, Migs had a Zoo-theme for his party and we let out three cute beasts in our midst. Of course, no hunters allowed XD

That's baby MIGS Tigger (the birthday boy), my UNCLE Mufasa (I asked him to pose vicious and he actually did. RAAAAWR~ *lol*) and of course, baby GIO Simba. Aren't they all cute? AWWWW~ Chotto, I know of *ahem* another cat that could fit right in...

PINK SEKUSHII NEKO TACKEY HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA~ Sorry, I just had a flooding of sexy cat memories just now..."NGGGIAAAW, sekushii cat!" *LMMMAOOO* Gawd, poor baby! I will avenge you Tackey!!! But please eat your Whiskas first ahehe~

Going back to the party AGAIN, I came as myself and my crazy cousin who was monkeying around said, "Hey, nice costume. Very authentic. Very natural." *dithers neighs and fly-kicks* hahahahaha~ Well actually, I retorted back with, "Oh, dun worry. I'll remind the waiters to get you table scraps for later. You will not go hungry tonight, dear cousin." HAHAHA. Daijoubu, that's what we call family love~

SO to our boy MIGS, I hope you grow up to become such a hottie like that pink sexy cat up there *(^____________^)* I also hope your friends would spare you of future (archive-able) embarrassments XDDD
