Sunday Morning Report: Missing & Repeating…

Hi guys. Welcome back. Eh… I talk a bit of my situation now? Since I cannot talk about military life in any other way, I can at least talk about my PHYSICAL situation now. I’m like coughing to the extent of being nauseous, and plenty of phlegm has been moving in my mouth. So how? Even if I took the doctor’s medicine, I also don’t feel like bringing into camp, especially when you cannot keep it and take it anytime you like. Haiz. What shall I do? But I’ll try to bring in the antibiotics; I’ll need it to protect myself from the other recruits man…

Okay! Now to Entertainment news. I managed to read the latest Manga before I book out (don’t ask me how, won’t say anyway):
MANGA
”Kuroshitsuji” is progressing, as Ciel knows where the target is somehow, and with Sebastian’s help I see no problems with this case. Ciel just have to do more to make sure he is successful, that’s all. In “Good Ending”, we see some post-graduation entertainment in the group, and the author lets Utsumi play with Kurokawa, which… is of no problem isn’t it? Haha… And yeah, “BLEACH”. It’s rather straightforward, as Ichigo meets the Quincy-Arrancar Hybrid, while the leader – who is not killed by Yamamoto somehow 200 year ago – is deciding to invade Soul Society for the time being. Well more fights just appeal to me, and I really want to see how the two types can combine to use powers, like firing Ceros from bows. Hmm…

ANIME
I managed to watch both anime on Friday night, so that’s good news. “Sakamichi no Apollon” progresses very quickly I see, as Nishimi (I don’t like referring others by their last names, I duno why) gets a play-around with the other classmates, as they make more jazz and go for summer trips. I would say this show is gonna make the cut for this season, I swear. “Natsuiro Kiseki” leh… I can say it has really a lot of Slice of Life, as they talk about friendships and beliefs in the supernatural. Well, I think I’m looking forward to next week, as they talk about Yuka’s crush? I don’t mind Case Studies; they play better in anime episodes…

On the other hand, today midnight is the airing of the first episode of the third show I intend to watch this season, “Hyouka”. This is rather highly driven by the animation (TBS, which also done K-ON!) and the cast (Satou Satomi, Toyosaki Aki…). I’ll see about how the story may affect my decision to continue watching this mystery-genre show…

MUSIC
Wow for next week’s releases! I’ve already seen TWO out of THREE singles I have to review, and hope Ikimono can come today too. This morning, I heard Sphere and Kana-chan’s new singles. Sphere is okay with the Natsuiro Kiseki theme songs, and Kana-chan… they need to give her songs more power, and honestly the ‘Masquerade’ theme in her cast in Oreimo is just interesting. Don’t worry, Sony Music Japan has insured us three more singles anyway…

On the NEW PREVIEWS I heard yesterday… I can say I have something to listen in May. Sid has also revealed their PV for their 2nd single on their double release, “S”, which is a upbeat song, so I have no problems listening to it. Chatmonchy has also revealed they new single PV, “Hatena”, or as Japanese refer to as the question mark. Yeah the song is weird at first, but I tell you: They have the most interesting rock I can hear nowadays. Really. Also, I said I wanted to give a chance for YUKI’s 34th Single “Play Ball” to account for the double A-side song for the anime I watch (which is written above), “Sakamichi no Melody”. The song is great, but her voice… I can say, it’s unique, but I’ll take it anyway. Don’t take too much a fancy for her voice though. Well for her 10th anniversary I’ll just close one ear…

I think that’s all. Eh… since I cannot talk much about military life, I shouldn’t. But I can say my PTP phase (exercising only) is gonna be over soon, and there’s this long weekend next week (sadly Saturday is cut in half and donated to SAF liao) before we move into BMT. My IPPT results are still rather weak, and in my state my chances of passing is still… rather bleak. But I’ll try my best, and also desire to get out of Tekong asap.

Cya guys then…

 

…

 

Haiz. Until next time…

[P.S.: I thought of a lot of things in APoL, but I have no notebook to write down my thoughts 24/7. Haiz…]

Sunday Evening Report: Wanting a Standstill

Hi guys. Now that I have some time to talk to you guys… (Audience: Hah yah you had the whole afternoon and you slept.) Eh…

Okay many things not in camp, so listen up. (Audience: You not talking about camp?) (Can I?) (Audience: |||…) Let’s talk about shows first. First thing I came home on the late Friday evening two days ago I told myself if I don’t watch the first episode of Sakamichi no Apollon I shall not sleep. And I did. (Audience: You did not sleep?) |||…

SHOWS

The com sucked big time, so I used sis’ laptop. The show? I tell you, if you guys have the time, give the show a watch. Almost everything in the show is good, from the soundtrack to the scenes and the characters. That Nishimi-kun looks a bit like me in the front half, sadly I don’t transfer schools and meet a gangster to play jazz. After that, I’m quite similar in his mood and his urge to feel nauseous whenever anxious. Well. The songs? I like the opening; feels like a new stage of music like none other. The ending theme shall be considered when my mood gets for the worse, which… does not happen at home?

Natsuiro Kiseki is also good, especially how they emphasise on the friendship between them. Eh I wouldn’t agree on yuri action between Saki and Natsumi when they literally ‘got stuck’ to each other. And I tell you, I still like the liveliness on the roles Tomacchan acts. Seriously; it’s addictive…

Mythbusters… Man I tell you, I totally hate the damned idea of the show recasting on Sunday nights, in which case I cannot watch every time I book out, and it seems I am an episode later than most fans. The square wheels thing is interesting, though obvious. And the movie myth? I’m surprised on the 180 degree turn~

MUSIC

Eh… quite a lot. Let’s talk about this week first. Finally got the mood to hear the ClariS album and took two songs, didn’t consider B-side for Mina-chan’s single, and… I’m totally succumbed to Ayacchi’s single. (For the last time, I promise myself?) (Audience: Ajikan?) Need I say more? Their B-sides don’t take much chance. Besides, it’s not even two minutes…

Today morning heard Kalafina’s single, which is the only single I need to hear next week. Eh… I took the B-side since… I think I missed their style already? Kaijura had better put in more effort on keeping them famous…

On previews, SPECIAL OTHERS released their new PV for the limited press single “Beautiful World”, showing their trip to USA, so it doesn’t seem to be much of any inspiration. The tune? Eh… if it comes with an album soon, I’ll focus on SPECIAL OTHERS again. Now no mood bah… Also, Sid has released previews for their double-two-week release of singles. “Nokoriga” sounded… emo? “S” in the movie preview sounds hyped up, which I needed, so I’ll give Sid a chance again. Ever since last December’s single my impression of them has not been ideal…

On the side track, I gave chances to negoto (I last heard them on last year’s NANO-MUGEN COMPILATION) on their new single for Gundam AGE Opening. The tune is great, and the PV convinced me on their alternative rock style. Damn, why can’t Sony Music Japan take VELTPUNCH in too? Haiz…

Cya guys then, I’m done. Until next time… hope I’m in the mood to type this long an entry. Allow me to emo myself now. Haiz…

Sunday Night Report: Change, Tired, See The Future

Hi guys. It’s been some time. If I only write once in a month due to my NS service, you guys can leave this place. But the good news is, you’ll only need to come here once a month. Haiz…

Due to the many regulations given by the SAF, NSFs are NOT allowed to publish any form of military content on the web, including Facebook, and of course, on blogs. Which means here included. So how? I cannot write anything, nothing of the army life, even though I’ve been in it for a month. So… I’ve decided. I’ll not write anything, lest I get caught and… land in somewhere I cannot commit suicide should I have to. Haha. (Audience: |||…)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For the Entertainment News… I cannot pledge to write once a week already. As anime goes, BLEACH and Shana have ended, and both ended on a good note, I would say. This week Natsuiro Kiseki has started, which was kinda prospective the way this goes. Next week’s Sakamichi no Apollon, and after a few episodes I’ll give proper impressions of these shows. For now, I’ll enjoy the Opening Theme from Sphere…

Recently been spending… this exceptionally long weekend (including Monday; don’t ask me why, cannot reveal anyway) watching live performances, which include Sphere. The girls… they are as good as they are, and they have two days, releasing two DIFFERENT lives. An epic fan then would only obtain BOTH versions, and so since I’m not I took the ‘Climax Stage’ version. It’s good overall, but a performance and DVD release a year is kinda hectic for them, I would say…

I also watched Kalafina, which brought back memories, especially with listening to ‘to the beginning’, their new song in Tekong. I just loved the feel of their songs, but somehow their songs also have deviated to the Pop aspect instead of the Classical aspect. Kajiura Yuki-sensei’s compositions have changed? Or did she take from FictionJunction, her permanent affiliation?

YUI also has her recent concert release, and it’s good to hear YUI again, though her new songs are not in my list, especially the new album. More from YUI man, something that could flip my lid. Well, I mean… well you understand. (Audience: ???)

There are also new songs for the month. miwa’s album stunned me, as well as her song credits that made me choose more from her average collection. SCANDAL’s best album is not the best, but I like many of their songs, so it doesn’t matter. Porno Graffitti is just releasing their new album in a pretty relaxed mood, which made my choice of her songs reluctant. Well, it’s not as bad as the new album I found this morning for ClariS. Haiz, their style… difficult to choose you know…

Wow all was pretty concise isn’t it? I’m trying to cover everything so you guys can get a reference. Well… since it’s so much I really should update once a week huh…

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Eh…

 

Can I say something?

 

(Audience: Go on.)

 

…

 

I mean…

 

Are you sick of life?

(Audience: ??)

 

Never mind… Cya guys next week then. Until now my breaks have been long (like… 48 hours), but from next week it’ll be half a day short. (I better not explain.) Until next time… I’ll try to update. It’s not easy with all the fatigue you get from training all day…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Haiz.

[P.S.: Happy Birthday Mum. And I promise, I’ll reduce my number of sighs I make. It’s not easy on a pessimistic person, you know…]

[P.P.S.: Why not- (Audience: NO!) Don’t worry, I’m not talking about pictures…]
