Damn tired now....reached home past midnight after the KinKi Kids Marathon with Stella and MC. SMS-ed them till 2am (And i only sent 4 msgs! Really reflects the speed and dexterity with which i type SMSes) and woke up at 8.15 for tuition...Tuition ended at 1pm and i visited the new JE library walked ard until 4pm....Damn friggin tired when i finally got home. Took a nap at 6 until 8 plus...but still v tired..


JE Library
Only one thing to say: Where are the tables??!!!!! (there were only max 20 tables there...wth! Can't study there! Woodlands library has more tables lah!)

Another thing: Sack that band performing at the top floor. They're damn f**king noisy lah! The lead singer was literally screaming away. lor...wth. Like, huh? How can you browse for books when your head's close to bursting and all the cells in your body are screaming "I want OUT!"

I know they are a rock band. But for god sakes that place is a library! The 2 obviously don't mix!

Word of advise: Stay clear of the 4th level if you want your sanity and ear drums intact!


KinKi Kids Marathon
Was pretty fun....Watched MC's NG tapes first. (i'm still practising the "SUMIRE!" "TOMARE!")after that was KinKi Kids' F Concert (called ~Fun Fan Forever~).

They sang some older songs like 'Kiss kara hajimaru mystery' (which was the theme song of Kindaichi 2 way back in 1997 when we were still in pri 5!), 'Garasu no Shounen' (their first single , which was released in 1997. It brought back fond memories of us watching it in sec 4 when they performed it in their 2001 concert), 'Suppin Girl' (frm B album. Natsukashii!!!!!!!), 'Kimi Wa Naite Tsuyoku Naru' (frm C album. they have juz released G album so this song is like, 4 yrs old!), 'Ame No Melody' (AHHHHHHHHH!!!!! Love this song!!!!!!), as well as 'Boku No Senaka Ni Wa Hane Ga Aru' (a nice slow version...awwwwwww.....). Koichi showed off his hot dance moves as usual (but in this concert they employed like 10 female backup dancers....wth)

They also performed their newer songs: Hira Hira, Haruka Na Uta (A song with a distinctly Broadway/West Side Story feel. KK danced really kakkoii-ly for this song =D), Hey! Minna Genki Kai? (a new cooler version), Kanashimi Blue (KK performed this on Music station in Sec 4), Honey Rider (a rock song that makes u wanna jump), Rival, and Kokoro Ni Yume Wo Kimi Ni Wa Ai Wo (another happy chirpy song).

Tsuyoshi also sang his self-composed 1st single: Machi. (Theme song of his dorama "Yume no California" and found on his solo album. It's very nice....It's kind of like a coming of age song. Abt looking at how ur hometown has changed frm the time u were a kid till the present, when u're breaching the borders of teenhood and entering adulthood). Koichi had a dance item and another song 'Tsuki Yoru No Monogatari'. Once more, he demonstrated who's more superior at dance out of the 2 of them ;P

In this concert, they tried singing each others' songs. Tsuyoshi's comic timing was flawless and he was hilarious in Koichi's 'Shock' (Koichi's musical) get-up, complete with the traditonal jap costume and the infamous long white wig. Koichi wasn't as funny (to me) but still quite funny when he imitated Tsuyoshi singing his solo number 'Dekiai logic' and scolding the jrs who were playing the instruments for his song. (That perfectionist!)

At the 'end' of the concert, they sang 'Solitude~Hontou No Sayonara' (translation: 'Solitude~The Real Goodbye) at the end of the concert. Arrrrghhh......Really felt like crying at this part..... But obviously, being KinKi Kids, they'd never leave w/o an encore. =D

Yup! they returned with Eien No Bloods (happy happy coca cola advert song), the ever-useful crowd-pleaser 'Rocketman' (which never fails to make the audience HIGH) and finally 'Kono Mama Te wo Tsunaide' (translation: "[Let's] Keep Holding Hands Like This". This is the traditional KK concert ending song btw), which was the ABSOLUTE last song.

I felt so sad!!!!!!!!!!! Really felt like crying.....If i were at the concert i think at this point i'd start screaming "Kinki Kids! Don't go! Kinki Kids! NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!" even though i know it is pointless. But that's really how i feel. As Stella said, "When you hear this song u'd want to watch the concert all over again."

At the end of it all, KK went round the concert venue (it's a kinda like a stadium) thanking the fans. Tsuyoshi played it cool while Koichi thanked the audience with his trademark 'right-hand-over-heart' gesture. Ahhh......the nostalgia.....

Koichi Calendar
The first thing she sees every day is Koichi and the last thing she sees every night is also Koichi. Awwww......don't they sound like a married couple? haha...no lah...actually Stella bought the $52.50 Koichi calendar and it's now hanging on the wall opposite the head of her bed. Lucky girl! Can drool at shuai ge every night.

She showed us the pics and i think it's quite worth the $$$ cos the calendar is abt one and a half the width of our sch desk and there's like 13 pics (including the cover pic). You do the maths.

Stella likes pics of him smiling but I like the cover pic(a close-up of his face with him in a singlet) as well as pics of him sitting on chairs and acting cool (one in the middle of a forest and another at the beach right in front of the surf). He looks really elegant and princely. *swOOn* Haha but i like the one of him perched on a rock the most. Picture this: He's sitting on a rock, looking into the distance thru a pair of trendy brown sunglasses and has a blanket draped over his shoulder. Al this set against a clear blue sky.

~wOW WOw wOw~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
