hahaha... i'm so darn weak-willed... all it takes is to see the Okinawa set-list, and I'm all raring to go watch the boys live again XD XD XD

but.. but.. the setlist looks pretty awesome k. Been a long time since 断絶came on, plus 幸せの終着, and .. get this .. a cover of 涙そうそう! How cool does it get??! :)

haven't been blogging, but some thoughts floating around, so just for the record:

- 鬼目的照片--欣慰地笑;凸的画--捧腹大笑
- Deathnote : Vol 10里(是不是10?忘了)最喜欢的一幕竟然是:Near打给月,然后说,oh, 打错了.
- Just finished "All She Was Worth" (english translation of 『火車』) by Miyuki Miyabe. Was recommended her books by BH, but the only softcopy english translated book I could find in the bookshops here was this title, so well, gave it a try. This being my first taste of a Japanese detective novel, it was interesting and gave a pretty good insight into some aspects of Japanese contemporary life. It started slow, but just after a couple of chapters, the pace picked up and before I knew it, I was already at the last page (the translation was pretty decent too). Only, perhaps I was expecting a bit too much, but I thought there could be a twist at the end, 'cept there wasn't. But the revealing of the bits and pieces of the facts of the case was quite engaging overall. So yeah, it was a good read.
- 完全不知道应不应该抽winter tour~
- Marla is coming, yippee!
- Still feels like I'm walking on a tightrope at work. But... gotta hang in there. Want to stay for at least 2 years this time. Really.

~Bouquets Galore!~

Super-sweet of muccrew to send a buoquet ^^





Some keywords---just for memories' sake--- 1皆1排4位obasans,yuj的69座位,Arena A5 block good seats!, platforms破裂TOT,朽木の塔的震撼,ramps stretching far back along both sides, setlist quite apt as world tour's finale, with 3 main parts to it, lyrics on-screen, 3 '6' banners rising as the backdrop, タツ坐着猛搓黑脚板,Yukke skipping along the side ramps, satochi drum solo, "who's watching mucc for the first time?", whole budokan mucc-dancing is a wonderful sight, Yukke black gum tape entrance, "everyone now knows mucc", clasps hands together when introducing Miya, Yukke hurt his leg, Miya helped him go backstage, video footage, *gasp* 69days tour!, last song was new song, satochi relieved his drumsticks went far.

Met 2 separate groups of ex-colleagues for lunch + dinner today.
Realized that yeah.. I still get along much better with them.
These are the people from the job that I just left.
I don't envision talking on the same wavelength with my current team.
Especially not that hostile one who shows me a black face all the time.
Why is she so bitter? I have no freaking idea. Loosen up, sista. Everyone's just trying to earn a living here, let's live through each day merrily, what's so difficult about that??

Sigh... I think I've 发泄 to almost all close friends by now about how I'm trying to adjust to the strange culture around the new workplace...
I can live with the fact that people don't go out for lunch but eat in their own cubicles instead...
I can live with the fact that the organization is not keeping up with technology (even basic things like giving IDD access to a team that deals with overseas clients... can you imagine, we're using phonecards??! Duh!!!)...
Heck, I can even live with the fact that people number their paragraphs in their emails (even internal ones!)...
BUT...
I can't stand having to face bitter people around me.

Well. Having to lunch alone means I've got more time to catch up on that stack of books piling up at home. But this week, I've been distracted by... Deathnote! Perhaps it was the launch of Part I of the movie that prompted me to pick up from where I left off in the manga (that was when L... y'know...) I'm liking the re-reading (from Vol 1 again) plus on-reading the plot involving M and N. I haven't read the ending yet...and just found out today about this! I'm very interested in No. 6!!!

L's still my favourite character. :)
