...or at least, trying to. I've joined [livejournal.com profile] je_ficgames and sign-ups are still up, so definitely try that out. Their teams this year is Present, Future, and AU and the prompts will be based on famous Johnny's quotes. I've never done this before, but I think it'll be fun :D
I've also joined the Kaleidoscope Challenge with [livejournal.com profile] darkagenda which promotes chromatic (people of color) fandoms, like our lovely Asian drama community :) I think it's hard to find drama!fic, so this is a nice way to promote that. If you're up for a challenge, it's still in the nomination phase so you can pick sources, so long as they're both made by and feature chromatic characters. I think they can make exceptions if the creator is not of color, but it might not be approved. Like, I nominated Sunshine because half its main crew is colored, but it was created by Danny Boyle and it's not guarantee it'll be accepted. Worth a shot -I couldn't think of anything else to nominate that I wanted to write/read.

Oh! And I also just finished another writing challenge recently, [livejournal.com profile] not_primetime, and I wrote and received Firefly fic! :D/
I signed up for pinch-hit notifications, and found out that nobody could write for me...But in the end, the mods are great and found me someone and even wrote a treat for me <3
Both were character pieces, the first one being really reflective and beautiful, and the second being light and playful.

After the War is Over (1573 words) by faviconMakioka

My home is in the heart of everyone (1118 words) by faviconBridgetMcKennitt

Summary: Serenity was more than just a ship. It was a home with family for Kaylee.

And to complete this entry, here's a meme I picked up from [livejournal.com profile] carmine_pink a while back :)
- Go to page 7 of your current WIP. (If you haven't gotten that far, go to the last page you've written.)
- Go to line 7.
- Copy down the next 7 lines, sentences or paragraphs and post them exactly as they are written. No cheating.
- Tag 7 authors in your f-list. Do it if you want. :)

OK! So, on a whim, I decided that I'm going to post every day using a different mood each day, which means, I'll be posting for 132 consecutive days. Wow :o

I'm sure there will be days where I have nothing to say, so don't worry about me spamming your flist with my usual long-rambly entries :P
But there will also be days where I have too much to say, where one mood will not convey it all, so I forewarn for that.

In any case, today's mood is Accomplished!
What did I do? )
If you didn't adore Okada Masaki before, you will now! He is so dorktastic!
OMG and Ozumi Yo and Kiritani Kenta; you would not be able to tell they are 30+ years old with how they act sometimes *squishes*


I can't get enough of Erika Toda as Toma in SPEC.

I've also finished Mioka, Hotaru no Hikari 2, and Liar Game: The Final Stage, but I'll save my rants for the drama meme that I'm finally caving in and doing ^^
Bones starts again tonight, SO EXCITED!!! :DDD

I can't stop rewatching the Unplugged video. It's calmed me down from a bad day ^^
Also, I was never really a fan of "Forever," but watching them sing as the credits roll makes me like it more. Speaking of the credits rolling, I adored Ryo's end comment about making them go super fast and then bowing out. What a dork :P I liked how the video editor actually indulged him, but properly showed the credits afterward ;)

Quick shout out to new friends, [livejournal.com profile] zsilverdragon and [livejournal.com profile] lemoned_x :D/

Ever since getting back into the stride of watching Kamen Rider, I've been looking up random things on Wiki, and this is what I found amusing recently:
Foreign productions as tokusatsu
The Japanese market regards several English-language live-action series dubbed into Japanese as tokusatsu programs. English language television programs such as Thunderbirds, Doctor Who, Lost in Space, Smallville, Wonder Woman, MacGyver, Stargate SG-1, Battlestar Galactica, Red Dwarf, The Greatest American Hero, Knight Rider, and even Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends are considered by the Japanese as tokusatsu for the special effects techniques and themes that they utilize.
I knew I loved tokusatsu for more subconscious reasons than just crazy storylines, cool "Henshins" and pretty boys ♥

I've kinda been running out of things to watch (How is that possible?!), so I thought, why not catch up on some American shows?
So, now, I guess I should catch up on "True Blood," "Chuck," and "Castle"...but, but jdramas are so much more fun and fast pace! lol
This is when you know you've been brainwashed XD
I was thinking about Kamen Rider Hibiki...but the video quality is so bad! I'll have to find a good download of it if I'm to watch it at all.

I can't wait for April. Time for fresh pickings XD

Wow, the kid who played Makino Tsukasa's little brother is still soft-spoken but buffed up! He's so adorable *pinches cheeks*
And of course, I'm totally there for Nissy and Daito Shunsuke. Yusuke and Koji have gained popularity now, so I'm giving more love to the supporting characters ;)
You should have seen this coming :P )

I noticed the 'aiming for the stars' and 'dreams' and 'boom boom boom' writing on the kitchen cabinets and I'm curious if that's actually there or if LoveSong subbers put it there as a joke. The table in the living room also says 'aiming for the stars!!' so...I don't know :P

So, um, I talk a lot ^^
Random, but this is probably why I love Ryo so much: because he is as much a creeper as I am XD

My 28-page Research Proposal is finally done and turned in -I'll write up a brief summary of my results to you once I've had time to get away from it ^^

My poor Twitter flist has been bombarded with all my frustrations in writing all these papers :/
Thank you for dealing with me ♥
Now to write two more papers XD
owaranai_natsu: (Default)
This blog, I wrote this for you, has daily doses of inspiration, love, anger, inquiries, and answers. It is just full of things to think about, and it has made me want to do a similar thing. I didn't know what to do with this blog at first, but I think I'll start with simple entries of random things in life :)
For now, pieces of light and dark will do for this space :)

Sometimes, entries will deal with my regular fandom (Japanese Entertainment) and sometimes it will be a peek into my life and what I see; take whatever you will from it. Enjoy~

This is the last time you'll ever have to see this, I hope :P
I got so caught up in this 'event*' that I forgot to post :P
Fandom really pulled together and spammed the crap out of Twitter just as it was about to turn into the 18th
For those who don't follow, [livejournal.com profile] uwasako came up with Operation #deadfisheyes, which was to make Yamapi's release of his "Loveless" single a trending topic on Twitter :D
*Note the flikr image associated with this trend is an actual dead fish XD

As you can see, it couldn't beat "New Moon," but it was still a phenomenal feat!
Honestly, it might be trivial to some people, but this just shows how powerful fandom really is. We managed to gather people from all across the world, maneuvering through timezones to make this work, and it was a success!
Fandom may have its ups and downs, but when it comes down to it, we're just really dedicated people. Great job, everyone!
お疲れ様でした ♥

Just saw that the lovely Ran uploaded the LQ version of "My Girl" and can't believe that the "Fall" season is actually starting already! :D
Ohgosh, I'm going to be so busy, but that'll give the episodes time to pile up (hopefully) so I can marathon a little ^^

I think I'm going to be following "Tokyo DOGS," "Liar Game 2," "ROMES," "Untouchable," "My Girl," and "Welkame."
The 'maybes' are "Bocho Manio 09," "Challenged," and "Gaiji Keisatsu."

A couple more pictures I found really amazing/amusing/hot from the magazine scans lately )
owaranai_natsu: (Default)
So, with this past drama season in mind, there were some pretty great ones like "Buzzer Beat," "Orthros no Inu," and "Koishite Akuma." I started off with a couple, but it dwindled down to these three:)

Anyways, I finally got to finishing OnI and let me just say that, despite it not turning out to be as epic as I'd originally hoped, I'm extremely delighted and in awe of the ending. It's just so beautifully done, right down to the cinematography:D
I know some bits of it were overly dramatic or wanting to give that 'happy-ending' feeling, but I honestly left that drama feeling happy, hopeful, and in love with this story:)"

'Gantz,' starring NINO and KENICHI MATSUYAMA! This pair is gonna rock it! Plus the premise of the movie is pretty interesting:)

I hope Yassu, Okura, and Yoko get better from their flu/fevers soon ♥

Day seven -whatever suits your fancy:

I'd like to introduce a game to you called "Werewolf." Europeans might know this game as "Mafia," but there are really lots of versions. The basic concept is shown in the video below. I actually discovered this game during the wee hours of the night at the lower levels of the Hyatt at Dragon*con 2009, and I played till the early hours of the morning. It has made this year extra eventful, and I know I want to go back just to play a 21-person game :D
I'll be referring back to this when I get around to making my final convention post involving pictures of the gang/lovely-drunken people we played with ^^

I am apparently the Knight's City Guard...cool:) )
So you guys must have heard LJ's 'announcement' that some 'malicious' embedding code was going around and altering some of our journal settings, but the LJ peeps have stopped it, and are now trying to re-enable more media embedding stuffz. The embedding code took peoples' emails, but nothing 'private,' so hopefully that is true.
Unfortunately, I noticed it on my sticky post the other day, which means my journal has been 'infected' XD
I hope yours haven't been, but in any case, we're all in this together ;)

Sometimes, I just wanna hug Ryo and beg him to take care of himself and to please eat a sandwhich :P
I know he's just some random celebrity that I'll never meet and will never know that I worry for him, but I do worry for him and view all his fellow friends and coworkers as important and precious people, so...yea ♥
This sudden Ryo!love was brought to you by "Orthros no Inu" episode 8 ^^
For some reason, his Kansai-ben really soothes me...is that weird? Actually, even when I hear Yoko or Koichi break out in random kansai-ben and their unique intonation, I just smile and feel really happy ^^
owaranai_natsu: (Default)
FLIST, YOU ARE LOVE *squishes*
Thank you for always being there and giving such immense support and LOVE :DDD
Also [livejournal.com profile] silentchord, I guess I'm just really bad at being anonymous :P

So, I wanted to share something most of you probably haven't heard of:
"Pollen and Salt" by Daphne Loves Derby

Real random comparison of Yoko and Siwon and Robert P?? )
Oh, and you can be my doctor anyday XD
Speaking of which, I do have a cold/flu...so :D nothing to be happy about, really, but you get what I mean XD
owaranai_natsu: (Default)
I know everyone's going to be talking about it, and I know it's only the flu...but I mean, it could be the swine flu, and I'm worried...
My heart instantly sunk. I'm not over-reacting or anything, but I'm definitely hoping/praying for the best:)
It's kind of a good thing that they are put on leave for a little bit; those boys need it ♥
~
Watched ep. 8 of "Buzzer Beat" last night, and I have to say that these two back-to-back episodes have been awesome! It's the first time, I feel, that we get to see Yamapi in love :D
Sure, ProDai was all about that, but this time, he's not really keeping his composure. This time, he's actually smiling and naturally hugging and kissing her, and being concerned and alkdfjaljdfdj, I love it :D
I feel like we're finally getting to see the real him, when he's in love. That, or his acting has definitely improved :P

edited:Review of eps 7 and 8: beware of SPOILERS! :D )
YES, THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT FALLING IN LOVE SHOULD LOOK LIKE! THANK YOU! :D
owaranai_natsu: (Default)
In the spirit of the upcoming convention, I've kicked myself back into some fantasy gaming gear. Sort of ;)
Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] thistleinmay for showing The Guild to me :D
I definitely just marathoned through "The Guild" webisodes, SO addicting :)
It's an online series about these 5 'World of Warcraft' gamers who are so addicted to the game that they don't have social lives, don't want one, and use WOW terms in real life :P
Felicia Day (the gorgeous redhead) is the lead and creator/writer of the series and she's going to be at D*con :D
She was also in "Mr. Horrible's Sing-a-Long Blog" which was co-produced by the Whedon brothers, and you know anything Whedon is well worth it ;)
Moving back to Japanese fandom )
Flist, I'm sorry I haven't been as attentive lately. I think this particular transition to the Fall season is starting to wear me down. Still, ♥ and *hugs* to everyone :D
owaranai_natsu: (Default)

I am extremely excited about Tacchon's new drama coming up. I wonder if Kanjani8 will get a chance to sing their own theme song. I mean, come on, two members are already in the show:P

A whole bunch of flailing and ranting and reviewing of what I watched in the past week:) )
