Obsessions

This is bad time to go crazy over something/someone. For my case: Shinohara Ryoko.

I can't bring myself to stop watching her interviews, not when she is so adorable and 'dumb'. >< 天然ボケ <3

Plus I love the fact that she is on such close terms with the SMAP members, the other female actresses that I know will be Matsu Takako and Kanno Miho who has such a close friendship with all the members. But for Matsu's case, it was because of her acting with Kimu Taku and for Kanno's case it was because of Goro-chan. Now, my beloved Shino-ryo is close to our wonderful and magnificent leader! (: Nakai Masahiro.

Hoho, I love their interactions together, if I am not already a fan of the nakanaka combi, this nakai-shino combi would be my best pick. Nakai picks on Shino-ryo mercilessly, on smaxsma and Kin Sma. I wish Ryoko-san can go back to becoming one of the regulars on Kin Sma, her combi and interactions with ai-chan and nakai are the funniest points on the show.
I just watched the 2004 Kin Sma where Ai-chan and Shino-ryo went to hokkaido together with the TBS announcer. And Ryoko0chan got a little too excited and Ai-chan was like 'Oh No, there is no Nakai to control this girl when she goes crazy' and the ending part when they reached the TBS lounge and met Nakai. Ho, the both of them just attacked him for abandoning them. <3 LOL

I miss the old Kin Sma and I love the nakai-shino ryo combi.
The best part is even the smap members know about it too. When goro came on Kinsma he commented that Nakai was always bullying Shino-ryo and making fun of her. HOHO (:

ryoko-chan, the only one that is excited about the trip. on the contrary Ai-chan was totally anti climatic. LOL


Ai-chan wanted A limo instead of a hired car and she was still upset that Nakai didnt come along.




Ai-chan questioning Shino-ryo's behaviour. LOL あの子大丈夫？　爆笑　＾＾



Shino-ryo going crazyyyy~


はい、以上！

篠原涼子が好き～

篠原涼子が好き～
私はやっぱり年上の方がすきね。

Just forced myself to re watch 月の恋人. Key word "Forced" I loved episode one all the way until the appearance of Lin Chi Ling, what a weak and redundant character. Having her around just spoils the balance of the show, plus there was this perpetual ache in my heart every time I see 真恵美 gazing at the moon sadly or when she has to give Rensuke (Kimura Takuya) advise with regards to his relationship with Xiu Mei (Lin Chi Ling) Spare me the torture of watching Maemi struggle please! Doesn't Rensuke realise that the image of the moon that he so admire and love is actually Maemi! Not eye dazzling but a soft external glow. You never notice that it is there because of the blazing sun, but once the night comes, you will realise that the moon is always there for you when you are lonely and tired. That is Maemi, Rensuke! The girl that you didn't notice for 15 years is always there for you, she is the epitome of the beautiful moon that you are besotted with!




Thankfully this show had 篠原涼子 and 木村拓也, if not, I will never advise anyone to watch it. It is a painful journey for those who loves Maemi. There is simply no spark between Lin Chi Ling and Kimura Takuya (Sorry for that Lin Chi Ling fans, she is simply a vase to me, 100% beauty but 0% acting skills)

北川景子 was a pleasant surprise. Not at all annoying and wonderfully adorable as the spoiled brat that she is. Loving Rensuke no matter who he chose in the end. Then again if I were her, I definitely wouldn't mind Rensuke ending up with Maemi, since Maemi has been nothing but nice to Yuzu chan. <3

Whatever it is, the meaning behind the drama was unexpected. The title was well played. (: This just deepens my love for kimura takuya, shinohara ryoko and kitawagawa keiko! <3

ゲゲゲの女房

Ah. Newest obsession: Gegege no Nyobo ((:

This 156 episode drama depicts the life of Mizuki Shigeru's wife, Fumie,from childhood all the way to finding love with Shigeru and maintaining a happy family no matter how ビン簿 they are.

Each episode is only 15 mins but this 15 min is enough to make you smile after a hard day of work. The pure goodness and faith that Fumie has in her husband makes her the ideal woman of all time. The kid acting as Fumie when she was young and her daughter is so cute that I have to control myself not to hug the computer screen everytime when she appears. ><

Not to mention the super delicious Mukai Osamu as the ever eccentric and taleneted Manga artist Shigeru. :) His interactions with his children makes Mukai all the more appealing to ladies of every generation. Hoho. Plus he does have a good chemistry with Matsushita Nao. (Fumie) They are both so tall....

Awesome drama with lots of laughs and heartwarming scenes that are bound to make you smile.

suffering from love sickness

I am love sick.
I miss Japan so much that I think about flying back there everyday since I stepped back on Singapore ground. I didn't even have the heart to watch the National Day parade because I miss Japan so much. Urgh

I miss the food, I miss the beautiful places, I miss the people. Especially the people. T.T
All of them are so kind and courteous, lining up to get on the trains or queuing up. So unlike Singapore, we rush into the trains as soon as the doors open and there will always be some one speaking very loudly on the trains ignoring the feelings of the other commuters. ><

I love Japan and I will always love Japan!

final words

I love and will always love Japan for her beauty and her spirit.

This exchange has opened up so many different perspective of life; the happiness, unity, and staying strong in times of grieve. Most importantly the friends that we have made during the entire journey.

I was seriously on the brink of a breakdown the last day due to the pathetic amount of sleep that I had over the past few days. There were still so many things unfinished and everything was unprepared.

We really didn't have a choice but to brace ourselves to ask 国場さん and 小島さん for their help even though we knew that they had other stuff to do. Nobody other than Vanessa and Jun Rong could understand how guilty I felt when I saw 国場さん typing away on our laptops, helping with the translation even though I am sure she had her own articles to complete and had recovered from her flu not too long ago. When she asked Jun Rong and I for help, we didn't hesitate to say yes as what we have helped seem so minimal to the amount of effort which she had placed in creating the BEST SPEECH for us. Thank you!!



Thank you, Chan Loong and Jia ming for coming over when we went around to gather photos for the slides. Thank you team 2 for coming over to ask us if we needed help and liang yu for insisting on making us green tea to soothe our nerves. ((:

Jun Rong, you are our savior, our KAMISAMA in terms of Japanese and niceness. For staying up with us until 6am!

Pong and Tian Hong: I had an awesome time with the both of you, かわいい三人グルプ！

I couldn't have asked for a better group. We were the most enthusiastic, the most organized group out there!!!! GROUP C!!!!! WOOTS!

Volunteering And first try in the onsen

It has been a pretty eventful day. Volunteering at the rikuzan takada and traveling 3 hours to togatta onsen :D while what we have done to help has been very minimal, I am glad that we have been given a chance to experience the disaster first hand. Even though everything has been more or less cleared, it is still heart wrenching to witness it. We were told to pick up the rubbish as they wish to build a carpark for the tanabata festival. After a few hours of digging, we have uncovered a few momentos which we were unwilling to throw. For example we found a gorgeous yukata and a notebook filled with advanced mathematics which was very neatly written. Who is to decide what is precious and what is not? On an amusing note, never underestimate the power of women! Given enough strength, we can move a tree (literally)
