Okay, so we all know that Gocchin made the switch to Avex, THANK GOD!!!! I’m athiest and even I’m saying that… so really… anyway… she’s-well- she hasn’t released them yet, but she has two PVs out and they’re the best things in the planet. and by the best things in the planet, I mean every teenage boy’s wet dream, both of them. I hate saying that, but I think the PVs are quite sexy, but I’m much more of a fan of the actual music than the PV, simply because, well, I’m not attracted to females. And while I can realize what she’s doing, I can also look away and do other things and be like “whatever”. Besides, compared to what she was doing in H!P, this is-well. I’m not sure the word ‘classy’ is right. But the thing with Avex is that they actually know how to pull off the ’sexy’ look. Meanwhile H!P is all about using cuteness as young idols. I don’t know anyone who’s upset about Maki switching to Avex. She’s got a real career going with a music giant, playing awesome music with such a great career ahead of her. The best thing is, well, people already know her! So Avex doesn’t have to spend as much on advertising on her as they would an unknown artist breaking out. At least I hope they wouldn’t need to, and if they don’t need o I hope they wouldn’t. I only say that because that would mean just that more money to spend on recording, PVs, etc. making things better quality. Because if no one knows who you are then a lot of advertising is needed for people to know you actually exist, otherwise you end up having an “exodus” (Utada’s album, she had NO Advertisements in the US for this good album, so no one knew about it, so it didn’t sell. She’s trying for America again and THANK GOD she’s not using timbaland. She’s doing her own thing and not conforming BWAHAHA!) wow, that was a long interuption, anyways. But if they already know who you are, it’s like “Oh, I know Gocchin”So you don’t need to put out loads of interviews and airing on TV so people know who you are and that you exist. I really like Fly Away, but I must sa that her song Lady Rise is awesome beyond awesome.For the PV, I love that hair do she has when she’s wearing that leather outfit. Yes, I admitted it, I love her hair, there’s just something so wild and refined about it. Why? Because MAki can easily play the part. The only reason why it looked awkward before is becuse, as I said earlier, H!P doesn’t know what to do with the more mature idols. There’s one part in the lady rise PV where she pulls out this mini purple sequin skirt and I instantly thought of Momusu’s Egao YES Nude single, she tosses the skirt away. I don’t know if it was intentional or not, but I thought it was funny the way it seemed like she was throwing away her Momusu act. Clearly, you look at the PV Fly Away, and it’s like “duuude, is that really Gocchin? No freakin’ way”Especially not with the way she’s…uh… tossing and turning in her bed like she’s having… ahem…a dream… of course the music is amazing. I love her voice, it’s just so powerful and just so perfect. It can play any role. Her voice is the perfect actress, her voice can play gentle and soft, powerful and loud, anything inbetween and so much farther than anyone can see. Gocchin is awesome. She seems to really like leather. I mst say I think the dancing is quite random in Fly Away, but so is the bed. My guess is it MIGHT make sense if I actually knew what she was saying. But I’m being very serious when I say it MIGHT, and not saying that knowing what she’s actually saying will do any good. I like the dancing, I can see a bird in the dance, although I must admit, that some of the birds I think of are chicken. Not ungraceful chickens mind you…
Random Babble
Anyway, I guess my “I’ll start blogging next week” didn’t work… I was trying to give myself a break, I’m still exhausted, I haven’t fainted yet though… well… not this week anyway. But like I said in my last post, they’ll only be snippets because I appear to have an addiction to typing, the computer, and the Internet, which means I clearly have an addiction to blogging, because it combined all of these things (don’t ask why I have an addiction to typing. I think the thing is that my family has always prided themselves on the fact that we can all type incredibly faster that most people. Of course we all live on computers, but even before then, it was almost initiation into the family… “How fast can you type?” I remember in 4th grade being such a shame only being able to type about 64 words per minute. Talk about humiliation. It’s still pretty slow at only about 100 words per minutes-of course I only seem to take those tests when I’m really spaced out, but anyway. I will get better!! If only I could think that fast, imagine how awesome that would be. Well, actually, I’m sure I can, but I think it really depends more on whether or not it actually adds to the blog) Anyway, on to my post… which is shorter than my intro. Oh surprise, surprise!
Dump him!
So, I was watching TV and there was nothing decent on. So I saw “Tool Academy” and I’ve heard the term “tool” so many times, but I wasn’t really sure what it meant. So apparently is means jackass, or, well, something to that degree. All these girls put their boyfriends to a trick game where “Mr. Awesome” will be chosen. But really, it’s more of an etiquette course. I didn’t actually see it, so in the end I can’t say I really care about it. My problem with the thing is, I guess I understand that the girls are emotionally invested in the relationship, but they must know that a relationship where the guy is that much of a loser isn’t good for anyone and they should’ve bolted before they even hooked up. They’re all broke, bums who have man-whore tendencies. What I really don’t get is why would a girl go back to a guy if they’ve failed Tool Academy. It means they fail…. life…. no really, if you’re that much of a man-whore you fail life, because you probably don’t use a condom and end up with a plethora of STDs and end up dying from a paper cut. Yes, die from a paper cut… I saw the end of the first one and the girl was like… “What should I do?” Um DUMP HIS SORRY BUTT. Except we all know he’s not sorry, and the words he’s going to feed you afterwards, well, that’s why he’s a man-whore, because he does know what to say. Does he mean them? No. If you really have such a terrible boyfriend you need to ask MTV to fix him. Okay, think about. Just think about that. You’re asking MTV (where the commericals are all targeted to horny teens and the series are cheap and overtly sexual) to help your man get better. That’s the first step to realization…. that you need to dump him! I understand if he forgets to say ‘excuse me’ after he burps now and then, and I understand if the guy spaced about your mom’s birthday, but seriously? these guys are openly lying about their status, air-humping all the girls-when he knows you’re not there. So think about it. You’ve seen him cheat on you, for most people that would be enough to realize… “hmmm, maybe this isn’t going to work.” or, like a normal person” WTF if your problem! We’re through!!!!” and then proceed to dump his clothes and TV out the window. But no, these guys do this on a regular basis, mooch of their girl’s money and party like there’s no tomorrow. B.S. A guy is never to mooch off a girl, that should be a sin (I’m sure it is). Dump him. Don’t “try to work it out” you deserve better… and if you don’t know that, well, you need some major counselling because no one deserves that.
I was gonna go on hiatus and then kept posting little snippets, so I decided that I’ll keep posting about something. Even if it’s nothing. But I figured if I have an idea, I’ll post it, other than that, probably nothing long for the next couple of weeks until I can sleep again…
So, everyone knows about schools that block certain websites. I was looking at AOL news because that’s what I do during study hall see what’s up with the world and mock them for caring. Well, you could imagine my surprise when the article “500 lbs. of Marijuana found on a tour bus” and “Heroin amongst elementary School kids” was allowed but “Named the Friendliest people in the World: Iranians” wasn’t allowed to show. From my knowledge the school doesn’t have the power to unblock things, they use a service to do all their blocking for them, but it really seems to border racism. I mean, allowing us to read about drugs but not about diversity? I find it quite ridiculous. With that said I also find the fact they don’t allow people to view blogs incredibly annoying. It’s saying that we shouldn’t allow ourselves to read about other people’s comments. And I really wouldn’t put that past the school since, well, they’ve been known (at least where I am) to not accept ideas that aren’t their own. Of course they’ll never say this out loud, it would get so many people fired, and then there wont be a school, because not that many people want to teach a public school, since the pay isn’t that great, and there’s almost always a commute, since they don’t get paid enough to actually live in the town they teach. I find it terrible…. that I find it so amusing, I mean think about it, they’re getting paid so little they can’t even afford to live near where they work. It’s disgusting! These people are supposed to be preparing the majority of kids for America. Well it certainly explains where we are, there aren’t many good teachers in public schools because they’re going to private schools where they can actually get paid what they deserve. and Since public schools attract (usually) basic teachers (AKA Not good ones) the poor kids of the future continue to get less intelligent. Really, the school system needs to work on this. Also not making high school kids get up so early, it goes against so many things science has told us. If they were allowed to sleep in a few more hours then their brain would be awake, they could actually absorb the information and the learning process could actually go faster. Allowing us to learn more in a shorter amount of time, but the fact being that during the first few classes we can’t even keep our eyes open, let alone our minds actually do any real thinking, well, it’s just saying, “Let’s see how fast you crash and burn, because we find it funny. We claim there’s actual logic behind it, but looking at studies we know it does so much more harm than good.” I mean, there must be someone laughing at us right now, because it’s just Hell getting up in the morning, knowing that my parents can sleep in later, hours-not minutes- but hours! Really, who decides what to block?
Hikaru Utada used her myspace page to reveal the title of her forthcoming English language abum, This Is The One. Utada worked exclusively with producers Stargate and Tricky Stewart. She tells why: This time the reason why I decided to work with Stargate and Tricky was because I didn’t want to have any big producers on the album like Timbaland-type producers that have their own color coming out, like their character is strong, like Timbaland-esque. [I wanted to have] track makers instead of producers. Stargate and Tricky are more like track makers. They’re producers – but compared to Timbaland-type producers, they’re better at bringing out the quality and characteristics of a particular artist. This Is The One has tentative release dates of March 4th in Japan and March 24th in the U.S.
I completely agree with Utada, Exodus was so not her style. I’m really excited about this!!
and now for an attack by Wiki
The album will feature at least 10 songs written by Utada. 6 songs produced by Stargate, and 4 songs produced by Tricky Stewart.
- Come Back To Me: This song was released as the album’s first single, and was produced by Stargate. The song has been described as a ’slower, R&B mid-tempo ballad’. Utada wrote “Come Back To Me” in order to say “Hey, look! I can write this Pop of a Pop song.”
- Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence – FYI: According to Utada’s myspace page, this song includes samples from experimental pianist Ryuichi Sakamoto and references to the film “Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence”. Also, she recalls this song as a central moment in determining her final vision of the album. “I recorded the demo in December of 2007,” she says, “but it was a difficult song, and I wasn’t satisfied with it—I had to try to get to the bottom of it. And then just a few months ago, I suddenly came up with the right lyrics, changed the melody in places, and it made sense.” Stargate are aparently the ones who initially asked Utada to listen to the Sakamoto Ryuichi song “Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence,” proclaiming they had a good idea for a track.
- Me Muero: This song was described as “flirty” and “sophisticated”, and is also Utada’s personal favorite track on the album. Me Muero translates to “I die” or “I’m dying” in Spanish. It is said to have a latin flavor. Produced by Stargate.
- Apple & Cinnamon: Described as “breezy”, Utada recalls that this song came almost too easily to her. Produced by Stargate. It’s been described as a mid-tempo track about men and women.
- On And On: This is a track produced by Tricky Stewart. A fun track; has the phrase “gay parade”.
- Taking My Money Back
- Poppin’: Originally called ‘The Austin Powers’ Song’.
- Automatic Part II: This was the last track to receive a title. The song is said to act as a way of connecting the album together as a whole. It is sort of a mash-up between the music of Utada and “Utada Hikaru,” as a way of showing fans that the two really are born of the same person.

I. am. dead. Like, people think I’m a zombie I’m so dead, so, well, that means no time on the blog. My apologizes.
I’ll have to ignore my resolution for the new year.. not that I believe in those anyway… maybe I’ll average it out, missing a week will be nothing. I don’t know what to write about, nor do I have time or the brain function to write about anything or figure out what to write about, so….
I’ll be re-started the blog next week. Sorry
I just noticed something, well, actually a few weeks ago. But when I write posts and stuff it has the big W for WordPress and then it has the title of my blog Atashi no… which means my but it’s a more feminine way to say it, but with the big W it says Watashi no, which means the same thing, it’s just gender neutral. I thought I should just throw that out there
Also, I have no idea what to write, as of late it’s been so hectic I’m literally suffering from sleep deprivation, I almost fainted today. Anyway, I probably will take a couple days off, I’ll start mid-next week again. Sorry, but there’s no point in posting if, well, One, I can’t and Two, if there’s nothing to say because I can’t think.
I’ve also noticed that it takes a few days for a post to become popular like the one I posted about KAT-TUN and Utada Hikaru got the most hits today, well, so far, they’ve been rising every day so I guess they need exposure. But anyway, I need the rest. Sorry about that!

Art, it’s such a personal thing, now I love to draw and I’ve been told my art is pretty good. But I hate when people make comments and criticize it. I don’t want to be an artist and I’m not taking an art class, so why does it matter? I draw for myself not for others, so why should they comment. So what if they think my proportion is a little off, so what if they think she would’ve looked better without a face or if I draw hands funny. I draw because that’s how I express myself, not so others can go ‘Oh that’s so pretty’. Because art, it’s a personal thing. Sure there are artist and other types who want their work to be seen and enjoyed, but for me, I’m just as happy framing a picture I like as I am just tossing it away. Sure it’s a little sad, but it’s not like “Nooo I must show this to the world!” and a lot of the time I hide my work anyway, I’ve always been like that because that’s what art is to me. It’s personal and so what if I’ve never taken art classes? I don’t see the problem. So what if my proportion is out of whack and her hands look crooked and her eyes are uneven. (Actually usually it’s only one of those things, I do my best to not draw hands) But really the comments don’t bother me, but what does bother me is the fact that they think I actually care. Or that they think by showing them a picture I drew it gives them rights to criticize my drawings. If I ask then it’s okay, but other than that I just want to know if you think it’s god, not what’s wrong with it, if you don’t like it, simply say you don’t and then if I ask and only if I ask can you explain why. If I don’t ask it means I like it too much to care about your opinion. Does that sound rude? Of course it does! Though I draw for myself, the picture isn’t for you, it’s for me, if it was for you then of course I’d like to hear all of your opinions “’til rocks melt with the sun” (frost) but if it isn’t for you, just go along your merry way! I understand if you walk in on a conversation of people making comments on my drawing, but don’t just dive in. Take a moment too soak in the drawing, because it might be two completely different things and if you only take the time to look at the surface you might not understand why she only has half a head or why his hair is a different texture on another side.
Speaking of personal things, music. Music varies from person to person, styles, genres, voice qualities, etc. but sometimes you just need to be in the mood for a certain kind of music. for example, I love the song Lilium, but I really need to be in the mood to listen to that song (It’s by Kumiko Noma and as amazing as it is, it’s got this quality that I need to be relaxed to listen to) Likewise I need to be in a dancing mood or an energetic mood if I want to listen to BoA’s “Eat you Up” So really I need to be on a similar level as the music I’m listening to in order for me to enjoy it. I’m sure there are others out there who agree, for example, if you’re really sad about something you’re not going to want to listen to a really hyper happy song. (I know some people do so it redirects their mood, but I know for most people it would just annoy them). That said, if I’m in a really hyper happy mood I’m not going to want to listen to a depressing song. So never listen to Morning Musume if you’re in an easily annoyed mood, or if you’re in a bad mood or anything like that. Their recent single Naichau Kamo isn’t all that bad, but it’s a little different from the normal music I listen to. Of course I just might let it grow on me. That said I think the song is a little too long for me, it’s 4 1/2 minutes which might be nice for some people, but after about 3 minutes I like to switch it up. I’ve yet to listen to their b-side of this single which I do believe is called “Yowamushi” of course I don’t know what the word actually means, but I do know that if you break it up “mushi” means “bug”. If you look at the translation for “Naichau Kamo” it also reminds me of the NANA2 movie which I watched with my friends.
****SPOILER ALERT****
Okay, so I was watching Nana2 the movie with my friends and in the beginning she puts her hand on her stomach and I just shouted out “oh my god she’s pregnant” and someone was like ‘you’re being ridiculous’ and then it showed these two strawberry glasses and I was like ‘well then obviously the glasses are important’ and of course after my ’she’s pregnant’ out burst everyone kept making fun of her and adding silly dialogue. Then all of a sudden, and by all of a sudden I mean probably a little more than half way through the movie, or maybe it was just half, I don’t know, I usually keep time on the movies because I’m a freak like that, but I was with my friends and I was too busy goofing around to really keep track. So then this thing comes up and everyone’s like “oh my god!” (because that’s the only phrase we ever seem to use) “she is pregnant” and then later the glasses break and there is symbolism to it and it’s really pretty. But it was so hilarious because the test comes up and I’m like ‘whaaa? What’s the single line mean?’ and everyone’s like ‘no you idiot, it’s a plus sign and that means you were right’ and me being the silly person I am reply, ’so if I’m right then it means someone’s pregnant’ which if you follow the logic strictly you could see how it would seem that way. I said she was pregnant, this random test comes up showing she was pregnant, I was told it was because I was right, so therefore, going by this logic, every time I’m right someone is pregnant, or becomes pregnant. I found it hilarious, as did my friends. It was like “You didn’t even have to watch the movie, in the first few minutes you knew everything that happened. There was a lot of “NOOOOOO!!!! DON’T DO THAT!!!!!!!! Oh thank god he-NOOOO DON’T-okay NOOOO- okay- N-no I’m not gonna-OH MY GOD HE DID NOT JUST DO THAT!?!!! I CAN’T BELIEVE HE DID THAT!!” Yup, all of us did that. Sad, isn’t it.
Something has really been bothering me as of late, it’s like no matter what I do or where I go 666 follows me. I heard that the original number was 661, but it still doesn’t help. I buy something at the store, “Your change is $6.66″ then the other day I decided to remove the songs from my iPod, I had Jade Valerie and Sweetbox listed as different artists and since I only have the “Jade Era” of Sweetbox on my ipod and she’s going by Jade Valerie now I decided to delete Sweetbox, so I’m deleteing them, I didn’t know how many it was just like highlight sweetbox, delete (since I already have the exact same songs but under Jade) and lo and behold, guess what? You have 666 songs left on your ipod. What time is it? 6:66 AND THAT DOESN’T EVEN MAKE SENSE! It’s been like this for a while, even typing this it keeps track of the word count and I was like, don’t stop at 666 don’t stop there you can’t you just can’t. So I kept typing, even if it was nonesense I couldn’t let it go to that number. Of course does it really matter, I’ve mentioned it plenty of times. It’s just following me against my will else where, but I’ll forget about it for now. Well, I’ll try.
Height, Why is it such a big deal, I don’t get it! Why does the boy have to be taller than the girl, how come it’s awkward if a girl is above average height? Why do people feel so awkward if someone if really taller and or shorter than them? And why do we have to mention it. “Wow, you’re tall” or “Haha, you’re so short” it’s such a stupid thing. There’s nothing we can do about it. People simply are the height they are, I guess girls could wear high heels if they wanted to be taller, but of all the problems that people have with height it’s usually not because the girl is too short or the boy is too tall. It’s if the boy is shorter than average or if the girl is taller than average. So it’s not something that we would consider “normal” but why should there be a normal height? Any the whole “pizza face” acne happens to people all of the time, it’s not like they chose to have it. Some people just have more problems with acne than others, so why do we glare and stare and call them ugly? Our society has just become so focused on what we see rather than what it is so that we don’t recognize anything other than pretty or ugly. Everything has become so material and everything has become so shallow that it’s all about what we see, the height, the acne, the greasy or frizzy hair. If we could all just close our eyes for one day and talk to people without seeing them it would all come about how someone sounds. We’d realize “oh, they have an ugly voice, I don’t want to talk to them” or “ooh, I like this person’s voice, it’s very smooth, I want to spend more time about them” because that’s the society we have built. It doesn’t matter what we do, it will always turn into something shallow. Like when Selma had breast fed a baby in Africa all of a sudden everyone said, “it was for publicity” but maybe she was just trying to help. This is what we have become, creatures that comprehend why someone with “all that money” would actually want to do something good for society. So it wasn’t considered our society, she fed a baby why can’t we just leavei t like that. Why must we tie it to selfish reasons? And why is there so much obsession over weight in society? It’s ridiculous. A designer actually said that Heidi Klum was “too heavy” WAIT! Heidi Klum? Too heavy? What the Hell Hollywood!? This girl is 5′9.5″, the “healthy” weight is between 139-174… she’s 130, she’s 9 lbs. under the healthy range. How many people can say that? I’m glad she doesn’t care what this Wolfgang thinks, even Tim Gunn defended Klum saying that Wolfgang is ridiculous. Because Wolfgang clearly is, I mean, look at the picture. Too heavy? Absolutely NOT!
The article I saw this on said she “snapped back” she clearly didn’t “snap back” if anything she was all calm and cool about it, not caring. Because she shouldn’t care what an old man thinks about her weight, of course Jessica Simpson isn’t doing so well about all the tabloids about her weight. She’s made a plan to lose weight I hate that. There’s nothing wrong with being healthy, but why must everyone obsess over weight so much, and then why must they give in to ridiculous standards. It’s ironic if you ask me, telling everyone to be anorexic looking while dishing out McDonald’s and telling everyone that Fast food is simply more convenient so that why we go. We’re a nation that loves convenience, and there’s a myth that says being skinny is convenient, it’s not. I have a sister, 22 and she’s a size zero. She usually have to buy brand name clothes to get that size and even then they don’t always have them. I love Tommy Hilfiger and she likes their stuff too, but the fact is they don’t carry her size. She usually has to shop in the children’s section. can you imagine that? Being a full grown adult being forced to buy in the Kiddie aisle because you don’t fit into the grown up section. I’m sure some people are thinking “wow, wouldn’t that be awesome, to be that thin.” Chances are there are plenty of health problems that go along with that as well. I would never recommend it, I don’t know how many little kids wear business suits, but something tells me those would be hard to find. Let’s also not forget that height plays a role. Meaning if you have to wear kid’s clothes and you’re taller than a kid (and chances are that you are taller than a 5 year old) it would look ridiculous. It’s like my mom always said, “it’s easier to take away length than to add it” It goes with hair, it goes with pants, it goes with everything in between. Because you can’t add something that you don’t have, but hemming, well, they have an actual word for it (the word is hemming in case you missed it). Apparently cartoons are giving into the pressure of being thin and commercially attractive (which, at least in my mind, means you conform to society’s personal opinions of what is beautiful “thin, long hair, flawless skin, anything ridiculously unrealistic… *sigh*) She’s no longer going to be an explorder, her hobbies will include make up, jewelry and shopping. Are you serious? What the hell are you teaching kids? At least when Dora was younger there was something there, not just “oh she teaches spanish” (because I think that claim is bull, there’s not enough spanish in an episode to do enough in my opinion, but if it teaches some phrases it’s better than nothing…) She was an explorer, she wasn’t skinny, she was plain and ordinary, like any other kid. She was a kid and looked like a kid. She was a lot better than Barbie’s skinniness with her beach blond hair and her boyfriend Ken and their super cool car. Really? Why does barbie have to be like that? Oh, right, I almost forget, Barbie was inveneted by a Perverted Sex addict, no I’m not exaggerating, he was a sex addict and by making the dolls, well, that’s just perverted. The measurements are so ridiculously unreal, there would be so many health issues if someone had barbie’s measurements, no really, they’ve done research and stuff like that. And I love Bratz, but they were all into fashion to an amazingly toxic degree and they were into make up, of course it was all about staying friends to the end and righting wrongs too (I watched the show when it came out… I haven’t watched it in a while, I don’t know if it’s still on, I think they got sued by the ugly hooker Barbie).
