sherryillk | swamped...

I'm currently swamped. The only reason why I have time for this journey entry is because I really should be asleep right now. *laughs*

Well screw that. I've been studying from 8-12 and four hours is a lot. Tomorrow is Chem day. Thursday is totally cram for Chem day. I'm gonna die from Chem...

But...but...but!!! There is something good coming from this. One, after the Chem exam, me and Xiao and AJ and some other people (possibly Janet as well) are going to see The Polar Express!!! It was my favorite Christmas story as a kid so....

And Saturday (after lab because everything is after lab), I'm gonna get that damned winter coat (gonna hit Macy's and the Manhattan Mall with Xiao) and then come back and go down to Times Square to ride the ferris wheel at Toys R Us. *laughs* I'm celebrating my birthday (19, oh my God!!! I'm not finished being 18 yet!!!) so I'm allowed to do stupid stuff like ride a ferris wheel at a toy store in Times Square.

That leaves Sunday for me to actually do workish things (after I sleep in late because I need to). :)

Now onto different subjects, I just downloaded Flame's song Don't Look Back courtesy of

kotaroh It's not that bad. I agree with whomever who likened them to the BSB. I totally agree. But since I totally absolutely ADORED the BSB, I like this song...

Now I kinda want more songs by this group... I've been surrounded by Flame fangirling for a while and I've kinda resisted getting into them (don't wanna get lured into jpop, thank you very much) but despite that, I think I'm sorta kinda hooked. Problem is I don't know how to get more mp3s from them... I guess I can search around a bit but what are the chances of me hitting with something from them? *shrugs* I don't know... Anyways, I'll probably look on mIRC later (maybe Saturday late night or Sunday) and hopefully I'll be in luck...

And one last thing before I take a shower and die in bed. My calculator. It's gone. I really can't find it. It wasn't turned in and it isn't just misplaced... I miss it so much... I want mine back!! *wails* This is just great. And since the Chem exam is this week, I'm buying another one tomorrow... :( There goes $100... :(

Damn it, my life just sucks right now. I don't know what I'm doing right now. I tell myself to get it together and I don't listen to myself. I know things and I know what could happen if I don't do certain things but I can't seem to make myself care. And I think I'm hiding under the excuse of my apathy... I'm just so tired of it all... I want things to just stop for a moment and let me catch up instead of me slowly walking as the world flies by me. I just want it to end... I'm looking forward to going back for Thanksgiving so much that I can't even express it in words... But I know it's just a short break (Four day weekend really) and after it, it's only 2 weeks until the semester ends and then it's finals and life would just go to pot again. What the hell am I saying? It already is.

I feel like such a failure... God, life sucks. It just really sucks. I think I've already ruined my life and it hurts knowing it doesn't just affect me alone. I could deal with that better if that is so but it isn't. I don't know what to do anymore...

Okay, that's enough depression for now...

And Diana, I'd thank you to keep this to yourself. I don't need Mom getting all worried about this. It's just a phase and the sleep deprivation and the stress of midterms that's getting to me. I would lock it but you're one of my friends and I don't want to make it private because it's not very private... So please, don't tell her anything about this.

And if you do, I will absolutely kill you when I get home. ^_^

oh sherry, gambatte *does the cheer dance* or.. as operators of TW like to say it: *slaps Sherry around with a trout back into shape* >_>;

ha ha, gary just IMed you a few minutes ago and said: yay for chem :)
go study with him. be study buddies. ^^

a calculator that costs $100?! =O is nyu milking that wallet of yours again?

happy thinking! *poof*

Dude. I'm assumimg most of the fangirling is from yours truly? XDD" Sorry..

But if you want more songs, I'll send them to you~ ^__^ I have..most of them. Hah. Yes. I'll send them to you through yousendit.com. Mwahaha. <333

Hey, I'll even throw in two of their videos~ =33 Consider it a part of your..b-day present...Hm. Cuz Enter the Phoenix is gunna be late x.x" Sorries~ Am definitely mailing today...today....*wanders away*

(Don't Look Back is good, neee? X333)

No, not just from you. If it were just one person, I could resist it a lot better but since it came at me from several people, I figure they can't be all that bad...

And mp3s by them, yes I definitely want. The videos I can do without (I don't wanna look at them and go all gooey and totally get into it) but mp3s are good.

And yes, Don't Look Back is very good. It's been playing nonstop since I got it last night.

Okay~ ^___^""

I sent all the songs I have ^____^V I hope you enjoy them~~

~~are you sure you don't want the videos? XDD""~~

Okay, I cave; send me the videos. If you have one of What Can I Do, I'd very very very happy. In all the songs you've sent me today (THANK YOU SOOOOO VERY, VERY, VERY MUCH!!!!!), that was the one that really struck me. It really reminds me of something I've heard before... It's driving me nuts that I can't place it though... I just know I love it. :D

You're welcome~! XDD *yay new FLAME fan..mwaha*

I've seen bits and pieces of the vid for What Can I Do, but unfortunately I don't have it on my computer~ I only have Venus and Mune no Kodou. I'm uploading Mune no Kodou for someone else already so I'll just post the linkie here once it finishes~ ^____^V
I'll send Venus~ btw what do you think of the other songs? =33

I've just downloaded them and I haven't really gone through them other than just an initial run through of all the songs. It'll be a bit before I decide if I like any of them (or even what my thoughts are) yet... Usually if a song manages to get my interest at this stage, I love it forever so What Can I Do? is definitely what I'm listen to right now...

LOL~ Okay =333 Can't wait to read your review on it~

ooh and I can't wait to read your review of the videos too...=33 Mune no Kodou is good~ Venus is...takes awhile to get used to XDDD""

http://s3.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=E8E8C75FBA4605761A3716F1BAEBA1D7

Here's Mune no Kodou~ It's a bit cut off at the end but you get the general idea =333

Oh my God...

*cringes* This is just...just... Gods... I can't watch this for very long... It just makes me want to run and hide in a corner...

Again, the BSB similarities are very much present. Well, any boy band. It's really glaring from the way they dance, sing and move...

And damn, they're just too young. How old are these kids anyway? Are they trying to look like jailbait? The one who has the bleach hair is hiliarious though. Is he the "bad boy" of the group?

I think I like the song better if I don't watch them do those awkward moves...

I like(ish) the song. It's not bad. Not remarkable but easy to listen to. The video... *cringes* I think they're a little to late to be doing moves like that. Maybe back when I was in middle school and was into things like this but this sort of video just doesn't reach people my age all that well... We've gone through the whole "adore the boy bands to death" and "vehmently avoid the boy bands at all costs" phase.

I don't know... It just doesn't look as though they're moving very fluidly... I like them better when they aren't contorting their arms and waving them all around...

I'm sorry if I'm overly critical of this but... Well, I don't hate it and it's not bad if that makes you feel any better...

*hides before I get attacked*

LMAO~ It's okay ^^"" FLAME's dorky dance moves aren't for everyone =333 I'm glad you at least like their music~

The video was from...nearly 3 years ago? If I remember correctly...(Surprisingly, one of the biggest fans I've met of FLAME is older than you~ ^^"")

Now, the twins are 20 (the 'blonde' and the orangish haired boy). Yu is 19 (the one you don't..see much). Kyohei (vocals) is 16 (but he left the group awhile ago)

Older than me -- that's very good. But three years ago so about 17... *laughs* When did 17 become incredibly young to me? I'm so old now... (But they're older so nya.) I guess I usually go for older artists.

^___^" Kinda scared to ask this but...what do you think of Venus?

=33" *mentally prepares myself*

Venus...uh, right. I couldn't watch it all the way through. Does that give you and idea of what I thought of it?

I stick with my belief that asian people can't do hip-hop or rap. It just doesn't work. They try and it looks like they're failing miserably. And the way they looked... *grimaces*

Right.

I guess all I really have to say is that they weren't totally terrible... And I think Kimeru's PVs did him better justice than Venus did for Flame...

And there was the fact that like almost all of the Japanese PVs, I've ever seen, nobody can lip synch very well... It wasn't as bad in the other PV but in Venus it seemed to be a bit glaring.

^___^"" I kinda thought your reaction would be like that....

That's ok =33 Eh, FLAME just isn't for everyone ^^"""

I downloaded the Flame song too! And, like you, it's been playing non-stop since I got it XD Such an addictive song... But I've had no luck in finding the songs anywhere :(

BTW, I'm adding you to my friends list, I hope you don't mind :) Judging from your icon, I'm guessing you're a Kime fan too...? ^-^

Oh, YES, definitely a Kimeru fan. A very, very, VERY BIG OBSESSED fan as well. ^^
