THIS SONG IS SO RIDICULOUSLY AWESOME.

1. Because it is entitled Banana no Namida, aka Banana's Tears (YES I KNOW).
2. Because it is TEZUKA AND SANADA SINGING TOGETHER.
3. IT IS A SONG ABOUT A BANANA. AND TEARS. I have no idea what the translation of the whole song is, BUT THAT IS ENOUGH. BANANA.
4. My imagination is able to fill in the blanks.
5. DID I MENTION IT IS SO UPBEAT AND CATCHY? *SWAYS*
baaaaanaaaaanaaaaanaaaaaa

Because this song brings me great happiness, and it is, in fact, in the spirit of 14 February...I bring you FIVE VERSIONS OF THE SAME SONG :-D. It is wonderful, with sha la la la's, a few dooowups, is in primarily Japanese, but has wonderful, wonderful Engrish. Lyrics were HERE in case you were wondering, but have a complementary verse:

ashita wa tokubetsu SPECIAL DAY
ichinen ichido no CHANCE
OH DARLING (duwa duwa) OH DARLING I LOVE YOU!
(duwa duwa)
dare mo ga ukarete CARNIVAL
kareshi no HEART wo itomete
OH BABY (duwa duwa) OH BABY LOVE ME DO!
amai amai koi no CHOCOLATE
anata ni agete mite mo metachi wa shinai kara
watashi chotto saigo no shudan de kimechau
VALENTINE DAY KISS VALENTINE DAY KISS
VALENTINE DAY KISS RIBBON wo kakete
shalalala suteki ni KISS shalala suteki ni

ATOBE VERSION
OSHITARI VERSION
SHISHIDO VERSION (this is my FAVOURITE one...balentine day kissu!)
SANADA VERSION
OISHI VERSION

Why yes, this was Prince of Tennis related. I totally haven't been rewatching the series for the fifty billionth time.

The question of the week is, why do I live ON THE OPPOSITE END OF THE WORLD TO WHERE JENSEN ACKLES CURRENTLY IS. Okay, by the end of the world I mean other end of the country.

For the 3 of you who don't know, Jensen Ackles is in Australia. And if I didn't live on the isolated other end of the country, I WOULD SO BE STALKING THAT. Seriously. I WOULD. I have been reading the reports and seeing the ads for GNW with him looking adorable and AND AND AND AND AND...

Aussies: tonight on channel 10:
       9PM: GOOD NEWS WEEK, GUESTing JENSEN ACKLES
       10PM: SUPERNATURAL (the christmas episode, if I'm not mistaken)

:-DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Why, why, why, must Australia make Dr Who and Torchwood boxsets SO SO SO EXPENSIVE? I see that the full Torchwood boxset is due to be released soon. For AU$100.

Also, you know your mind is doomed when the release of Galactica: 1980 makes you VERBALLY say "Oh god, yes".

And I am amused that Australia - without airing it on normal tv - is releasing Dexter season 1 on Valentines Day. *SWOONS*.

And I am probably willing to pay $200 for the complete Young Indiana Jones series. I AM SHOCKED AND HORRIFIED.

Also, a HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL DVD GAME?!?!?!?!? Would buy it. In an instant.

OKAY I WILL CLICK AWAY WITH ONLY MINIMAL SPENDAGE. And not for me either. Stupid sibling with stupid birthday presents that can not be bought anywhere. *mumbles*

So I am going through all my boxes (I HAVE SO MANY) and attempting to chuck out all my old schoolbooks/folders. I have been keeping them since year 6. That was...nine years ago. You can imagine how much stuff I have.

ANYWAY. I happened upon a folder (cutely named Loz's Stuff) which contains "research" and "plots" for UTTER UTTER MARY SUE stories I once planned to write (at least I was 12. That's my excuse). I also happened to come across some wonderfully angsty poetry. I use poetry in the loosest way possible.

SO - I dare you all to look up all your old angsty poetry from ages ago - I know you all have it. And post it. I will give you a stellar example of my wonderful poetry skills (which are, by the way, none).

Funny games on my behalf
My face, my pride you had a laugh
But now you will never know it's me
Because this face has changed you see
Hurtful lies you told the world
All my dreams, out you hurled
Curled up in a little ball
Down I spiral, down I fall
The shallow pit that contains my life
Digs into my brain like a blunt edged knife
Creeping back into reality
I saw that your lies weren't really me
Faces change, people forget
But the misery...I keep you in debt

GUYS. I AM MORTIFIED. THIS IS THE BEST OUT OF THE BUNCH. '

This "poem" occured during a HUGE fight in year...6. When my closest friend - my first friend in Australia - decided to be a bitch and her and her mother made every obvious attempt to exclude me from everything and include my other friends and making sure I knew it. All because a mutual friend had decided to stay with me instead of her when visiting from interstate. After feeling pathetic and emo about it, I realised that she was just a bitch and that I could do better than her. Which meant, ULTIMATEBITCH!LAUREN. I can get really, really bitchy when the need arises. What this meant was I told everybody what she had done and then everyone shunned her. HA. Of course, I felt bad, but vindicated. I was SO MAD. I told her "If you can't be a good friend to me, then don't be one at all." Eventually I started talking to her again, but it took like a year. I am still loose friends with her. But I will never forget. Seriously. I hold a grudge like you would not believe.

To be fair, this extreme!bitchy side towards friends has only come out twice - in year 6 and in year 8. Year 8 when another friend got FURIOUS at me because I hadn't been able to tape her beloved Dawson's Creek properly and she was so obsessed with Joshua Jackson that we never did anything BUT watch things with him in or talk about him and eventually I got sick of it and we stopped hanging out and she accused me of being a bad friend, and I basically said, "Me or Joshua Jackson." I guess you can tell who she chose. I said some pretty mean stuff, after that. And then refused to speak to her for like, a year. At which point I was the one who ended up apologising and making amends.

I guess having two sisters and constantly being at odds with them developes your bitchy side really well. /muses on this

GUYS OH MY GOD.

I just bought:

1. SINGSTAR
2. Five. I REPEAT FIVE SINGSTAR GAMES
3. HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL SINGSTAR
4. Justin Timberlake dvd
5. Hairspray CD
6. TWO t-shirts

My sister bought:
1. GUITAR HERO 3, plus a game controller, plus a memory card
2. FOUR t-shirts
3. TWO CDS
4. TWO DVDS

...and she totally blames me for forcing her to buy most of them. HAHAHAHAHA

We were in EB Games, and I was clutching my like, Singstar + 6 games in ENDLESS lines of people, and so eventually one fo the staff came around to start getting the boxes to get people in the lines their game cd's so it could go faster....and I had my back to him and he was all...."Can I help you?" AND THEN I TURNED AROUND WITH MY MOUND OF GAMES. He was all..."all of that?". So he went away to find all the discs and my sister and I got to the front where she asked the (hot) guy there if they had any guitars for guitar hero there (we went EVERYWHERE beforehand and everywhere said they were sold out of PS2 guitar hero, including EB GAMES the first time we were in there), as she was prepared to buy the guitar and the game separately. And the (hot) guy was all, "...we do..." and she was all, "YES! THANK GOD! NOWHERE HAS THE PACKS, WHICH I WANTED SO I WILL BUY SEPARATELY." And the guy was all, "...we have the bundles...did you want one...?" and she was all, "OMG YES NOW." So he went away to get it, and we were all confused because when we had been in there before they had said they had none left. So as he got back with the HUGE guitar hero box, the guy who had taken all my stuff returned, and had this HUGE double take and said, "...are you buying that too?!" And we were all *mumblemumbleyes*. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

FUCK I SPENT SO MUCH.

GUYS I AM SO, SO VIOLENTLY AMUSED.

I SEEM TO BE UNCONSCIOUSLY STALKING A JAPANESE VOICE ACTOR FROM SHOW TO SHOW. IT IS TOTALLY UNINTENTIONAL.
I just randomly, seriously, seriously randomly started watching this show and was like, "....this sounds suspiciously like Tezuka/Byakuya..." AND IT IS.

/fails

PS: itzaimster: 26th, JDM MOVIE, y/y?

I very obviously should not be left alone with myself. Because then I do stupid things like think. I'm pretty sure this means tomorrow before I go to work I will be violently working on my Prince of Tennis picspam. And then be incomprehensible about it and go off on tangents of GAYGAYGAYFLAMINGGAY.

PS: Where is Sasuke lately? I MISS SASUKE OKAY.

PPS: Yes, yes, why I am quite insane, how nice of you to notice

PPPS: There was a dead enormous dragonfly on my bedroom floor. And I stomped around in here for like, an hour before even noticing. What does that tell you about the state of my living area? Pretty grotty, hey. But, when I did notice it, I screamed like the girl I am and forced my father to stop eating dinner to come deal with it.

PPPPS: Jenna stole my PS2, and my Naruto game and decided it was awesome. GO ME. SUBLIMINALLY FORCING THINGS I LIKE ONTO PEOPLE.

PxamillionS: OKAY I AM GOING TO BED NOW. *tries not to fall over own face*

PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPS: I still neither have a POT or Naruto moodtheme. Not Happy.

You have to know there is something wrong with you where you can read the word "bouchou" and absolutely fall apart with laughter every single time. I swear. Hearing it is even worse.

I obviously need a Tezuka icon. And am apparently incapable of reading any sort of fic where Tezuka is involved, due to the buchou's. OH POOR LITTLE ECHIZEN AND YOUR TINY LITTLE BOY CRUSH. I just.

/falls apart.


PS: THE QUESTION IS, WHERE ART THOU POT MOODTHEME?
