Rather tiring having a blood clot. Loads of doctor visits and too little time for blogging. >.< The blood values are stabilizing at a good level right now though, so finally I might be able to escape for a while. Now, on to business!

As I’ve previously mentioned, January 29th was my birthday, and I got lots of precious gifts from everyone. Loved the one from my boyfriend though. A very funny book, a Japanese cookbook (it tells how to make home made noodles and dango and such!), and another little thingie I won’t say what is. But it was adorable. <3 I paid a bit myself for a new phone, and my mother payed the other half for my birthday gift. Other things include…

• A lot of money, which are, by now, spent on food, medicines, rquired books listed on our pensum for this year’s courses, a few figures and some stuff.
• Some PC-related stuff from my brother. I have yet to see what it really is.
• Cups and mugs from my friends. They heard about my cups being broken all the time by my fellow dorm members, and bought me a few, as well as some chocolate.

Both regular and pre-order editions are now up at yesasia.com. The album itself isn’t due until January 22nd, so we’ll have to wait a bit more before we can get our hands on it. The normal edition comes with a dual cover and some stickers. I’ve gotten some more information on the track list too, but nothing is confirmed as of yet. It seems a bit strange to me that “In your eyes” will be included in Show’s album as well, since Rainie’s newest album already contains the song. I will, however, post the current one.

Track list (will update when confirmed)
01. Luo Sheng Men (羅生門)
02. Ai De Zhu Chang Xiu (愛的主場秀)
03. Sheng Li Shi Zhong (生理時鐘)
04. Xi Guan Jiu Hao (習慣就好)
05. Wei Xian De Nian Tou (危險的念頭)
06. Ai Feng Tou (愛瘋頭)
07. In Your Eyes (feat. Rainie Yang)
08. Ai Bu Dan Xing (愛不單行)
09. Gao Ding (搞定)
10. Wei She Me Zai Yi Qi (為什麼在一起)
11. Lao Shi Jiang(老實講)
12 . WOW (feat. Elva Hsiao)

Listen up guys, Show Luo’s 7th album is now out for pre-orders! It’s expected that this album will contain quite a lot of songs, including the title song, from his ongoing drama, Hi My Sweetheart. The tracklist isn’t quite ready yet, but I’ll be sure to update when the time comes. I couldn’t manage to find a proper album cover to this post, so enjoy a picture from Hi My Sweetheart instead.

The name of the album is “Luo Sheng Men”, a title inspired by Rashomon, which I think is a Japanese short story and a set of movies if I’m not entirely mistaken. Pre-orders opened December 22nd, but the album won’t be released until January 22nd, a month later.  There are two different versions of the pre-order edition:

• Version 1 contains a photobook taken when Show was in New York.
• Version 2 contains a pair of sunglasses and a postcard.

The album is available over at Yes-Asia.com for interested fans.

Guess what I’ve gotten my hands on!? *cough*NottheUniversalBunnyMacrossFrontierMovieMiniAlbumCD*cough* ^_______^

Tracklisting

1. Universal Bunny
2. pink monsoon
3. Girigiri Summer (^ω^)ノ
4. Izorado
5. Aenai Toki
6. Eien
7. Obelisk
8. Tenshi ni Nacchatta (universal version)

I absolutely adore the cover for this CD. Pretty~ <3 While I in general love all the music from Macross Frontier, I’ve completely fallen for Obelisk and Aenai Toki. I can’t wait until the movie premiers!

*dances happily around*

Tada~! This is actually the top part of one of my shelves, filled with many interesting things. The part I want to draw your attention to however, is the top section to the right. Do you see the Fahrenheit stuff? My collection is coming along pretty nicely these days, and I am now up to date on all their albums exept their Japanese singles, which I don’t intend to buy anyway. I guess I prefer them singing in Chinese, I think their Japanese sounds a bit silly. xD Personal opinion, I guess. And for those who want to see the rest of my room in all it’s glory, pictures are coming up later this weekend. I guess we’ll have a grand tour then. :3

As requested, I’m giving the translation of the full version of Fahrenheit’s song Dong Mai a shot. ^_^ I’ve marked who sings what this time around, since I find it easier to follow the text when the parts are marked in different colours. Personal preference. xD Feel free to post this anywhere you want. I would be overjoyed if you gave me some credit though. And please correct my translation if you find anything strange, there are surely many strange things to be found in this translation. xD Thanks. :3

Title: 動脈 (Dong Mai)
English translation: Artery
By: Fahrenheit
Version: Full version
Blue: Aaron Yan | Purple: Wu Chun | Red: Jiro Wang | Green: Calvin Chen  | Orange: Aaron and Jiro | Black: All

My love for Bleach has finally blossomed again, this time in the form of Burimyu. I’ve actually followed Bleach since the first release of the manga in Japan, but I must admit that my interest in the series faded a bit quite a while ago. Then, a couple of days ago, a friend began mentioning Nagayama Takashi, a Japanese actor and singer. I seemed to remember the name, but I couldn’t quite figure out who he was. And then it hit me. He played Hitsugaya-taichou in Rock Musical Bleach, or Burimyu for short. Thus I began searching my archives for stuff related to him, and ended up watching two J-dramas, backstage clips from the musicals and of course the musicals themselves.

Updates on the album

• THE ALBUM IS OUT! *ehem*
• The normal edition from Taiwan is now up on yesasia.com too, being officially named the Gentleman’s Version (2nd version at YA).
• I wonder if any of the versions will contain a DVD, as done in the previous ones released after the preorder. Will post if I find any info on the subject.

As mentioned, the track list for Fahrenheit’s Third album is now confirmed. The following tracks will be included in the Yue Lai Yue Ai album:

Well, Christmas is coming up. Do you guys have any special wishes or hopes for this Christmas? Gifts, happenings, or something else to look forward too? Since I am in Christmas-mode right now, I might as well share this wonderful feeling, so I’ve decided to post a song. Dong Bang Shin Ki have released a Christmas album, and this is one of my favorites on this album. It’s in English though, so no Korean knowledge is needed.

Just posting a couple of updates for you guys on two of my most anticipated albums this winter; Show Luo’s “Trendy Man” and Fahrenheit’s “Yue Lai Yue Ai”.
