It's going to be another lazy-hazy-day for me. (I got the dishes done at least.)

Soo....

Otomen, Liar Game2, Orange Days and Ahiru to Kamo no Coin Locker it is.

I have been out of fanvidding business for a while (I think I haven't made anything in six months or so), I finally got inspired after watching "BANDAGE" pv with LANDS. I wanted to combine the dark parts where Jin adventures in the basement with Yamapi's dance from "Loveless" pv.

However, though the vid was born already earlier today, I got to posting it only know because the program refused to save it. After many hours of swearing and searching for help in various forums, I realized my copy of "White X'mas" was corrupted. It took some time but I finally found a non-password-protected, non-subbed, non-corrupted and full version with what I was able to replace the infected parts in my fv.

And, now it's finally available for viewing! ^o^ As usual, you can find it here in blindcottonlove (because I like to keep all my creative works -except writings- there neatly organized) and in sundae_jewels (because that's where all the boylove goes XD).

Maybe tomorrow I actually get to doing something useful, like studying or doing the dishes or wrapping Christmas presents or something XD;

Hooray for the anonymity of online auctions!

I bid on some CDs and turned out the sellers were toppuu and her friend :')

Kinda amusing how small the VK circles are here in Finland.

Well, at least the delivery should be safe XD;

Aaaalso, I gave a new try at ordering stuff from CDJapan. I purchased the new Arena special. It won't break my heart if I get a new "authorization declined" email. And if the issues I had with the card were only temporary... Hooray for Bakanishi on the cover! :')

I'm quite sure though that the problem is the bank that issued my card. If CDJapan turns my purchase down, I'll open a new account in some other bank, like Nordea for example. I've heard their Electrons are elligible for PayPal too 8)

Yamashita (written with kanjis of "mountain" and "under" :D) Tomohisa -Loveless

At first the song sounded a little lame -I've always liked YamaP the best when he sings poppy and catchy songs, like Daite, Daite Seniorita or Love Song. However, twenty-something repeats made me think differently :D Now, I'm actually quite fond of the sooth and calm chorus. AND HO HELLO. The video from 3:23 onwards -plain gorgeous sex! I love how the editing is done, the dance moves are beautiful and YamaP with the cap-beanie-thing looks downright edible ♥

Does anyone have .gif icons of this pv yet? I could make some but it's kinda strenuous and tiring. Maybe on Thursday or Friday when I don't have school. Hmm.

I've cleaned the apartment thoroughly, so now I can allow a small break for myself. Eita and chips♥

(Mäntysuovalla tulee puhdasta mut hyi saatana ku täällä nyt tuoksuu tunkkaiselle D:)

I'm getting more and more anxious about the upcoming Japanese speaking test. I understand pretty well but forming sentences out loud scares the shit out of me, especially when the sensei is listening. I'll make a complete fool of myself, boohoo. (I was thinking about baking cookies and tea and asking people to come over to speak Japanese with me lol. Wouldn't that be wicked, a Japanese Martha Stewart club? XD)

Katja was shopping with me on Saturday. (Practically, I'm broke, but fuck it. Shopping is good therapy.) I bought a beaaautiful mint green shiny dress that DOESN'T MAKE ME LOOK FAT. Hoorayh! JoJo is coming over next week (♥), maybe I'll ask her to take a picture of me wearing it so I can show it.

I haven't been doing anything honestly productive lately. I'm lazing around. Kinda liking it.

Finally I have enough room in my computer that I can download Ahiru Kamo no Coin Locker and April Bride♥ AND NODAME CANTABILE MOVIES COMING? Ho Eita love *w*

How's visual kei doing these days? I haven't updated myself since CDJapan failed me DDD: Anything nice coming out soon-ish?

BACKSTREET'S BACK ALRIGHT.

Recently, a friend asked me to order a KAT-TUN dvd for her from CDJapan.

Surprisingly, my credit card authorization was declined. This has happened before, so I thought it was nothing (once I crossed the purchase limit of my card, I thought I had done it again). However, when I tried re-ordering it, I kept receiving the same frigging note: authorization declined.

Wtf.

Well, then I borrowed my sister's card and made an account for it. However, even though her card is rather new and she never has card issues like I sometimes have.... authorization declined returned.

WTF.

I have an Electron and I've NEVER before had issues ordering with it from CDJapan DDDD:

I think I migh try purchasing something from them after a month or so, maybe this is just temporary.

Has anyone faced similar difficulties lately when shopping stuff with Visa Electron?

I need a real Visa ;__;

( My questions by onlyechoes )

I never found a dress I would've liked, so instead, today I ended up buying underwear 8)

( Rii was lingerie shopping with her family XDD )

I re-dyed my hair red this morning but the tone was a bit wrong and my hair color turned out slightly colder than it was intended:




LOL. That's me fingering my new bra XDDDD

This morning has started off wonderfully: it's SNOWING~ outside, everything is becoming beautifully white, and I've falling in love with Hakuei. It's awesome how Kiyoharu's sound and Miyavi's looks blend into one in Hakuei :D Kyou wo Ikiyou is an incredibly inspiring, spirit-lifting song. I'm playing it on repeat.

Actually, I should me drawing a wedding gift picture I promised to make like... two months ago, and I haven't drawn a line yet 8)) How very me. Well. I think I'm going to cheat a bit and choose one of my old, unfinished works and start from there. (Quite a good plan considering the wedding is on Saturday XD)

Tomorrow I have an apartment represantion (hello, my English fails me again; you know how you're thinking about renting a flat and first you have to see it? Dunno. I guess it has a word of its own in English?). SUUUUPER lovely toppuu is coming with me ;__;~♥ I'm nervous like woah. Wish me luck!!

Yesterday, I had a four-hour-long lecture on television studies. I love university [not]. The themes and subjects we were discussing were interesting and some students had amazing ideas on the relations of our society and television culture but in a four-hour-chunk it was too much. Next week I have to remember to take snacks with me. Uh.

Okay. Now I draw a bit. And then I'll prepare for the apartment thing. Uh huh.

I had misread the starting day for World Film History class. I thought the class was tomorrow but it was actually... Today. Frigging awesome, I missed the first session :')

Well, at least I had time to write an essay for Sensei. The paper turned out silly, clumsy and short but at least I have something to give her tomorrow.

I'm growing to hate my Japanese lessons because I'm always the one who hasn't prepared any materials for the class -I can't blame anyone but me being lazy but anyway, it's rather annoying to see how dissatisfied the teacher is with me. I'm sorry, I'm pretty much homeless at the moment, I have work and stupid boyfriend who's apparently allergic of my stupid cats and now our moving-in-together project is in deep shit.

Excuses, yeah, I know. I have plenty of time, actually, but I just don't spend it wisely.

I'm listening to old Kagrra, in youtube. Sakebi, Uta, Rin, Kotodama... ♥

(Eikka muuminperseilee mun sylissä♥ Emmä voi antaa tätä pois DD:)
