I just added a new fanfic onto my fanfic recommendation’s page.  Now, I don’t usually announce this, but this one seriously touched me.  It’s called “Time Forgets” by RAINxclouds.  Through this fanfic, I’ve also found out about Yiruma [I'm still listening to his other songs after reading the story.  Haha].

(Please do remember that these recommendations are my opinion.  I don’t guarentee that you’ll love them, but at least I did.)

Hmm…maybe I’ll start writing about the fanfics I recommend more often?

On another note.  I finished watching TEIOH the other day.  It  was nice.  Not as “OMG AWESOME!” as I usually prefer it to be, but it was good.  At least, I don’t regret watching it.

Now…I have the last episode of 4 Shimai Tantei Dan to finish.  [An enjoyable series, just slightly creepy to watch at night because it is a mystery story afterall.... XD]

I also started watching Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge the other day, with Kamenashi Kazuya, Tegoshi Yuya, and Uchi Hiroki, was it?  I’ve heard [read] stuff about Uchi committing some crime in the past, but I’m not really clear as to what it was/etc.  Apparently, he’s back now, though?  But I’m liking his character in Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge.  Haha.  He strikes me as one of the more…’intelligent’ ones….  Kame just makes me laugh.  XDD  I’m planning on rewatching the first episode [maybe I'll end up watching the whole series] in English subs…cause I think I kind of missed some of the stuff that was going on (I watched it Chinese subbed.  Haha.)

Well, I hope that everyone has an awesome day, and to all those people taking their SATs today (I know quite a few), I wish you luck!!

I updated “The Dream that Rewarded Us with Love” a few days ago after like…what, 3 months? I’m currently working on the next chapter, and I hope to post it up soon…I’m just having some slight transition problems….

Since I’m currently on Winter Break from school [which is much needed because I have TONS that I need to write and update, and a fanfic poster to (hopefully) make, as well as much sleep to catch up on....], I hope to be able to type up [lots of] chapters so I have something to post in the future if/when [I definitely will, I bet] I get busy again when school starts up again next year.

So hopefully, I’ll be back with more updates soon!

I’m going to finish watching Kurosagi today.  I think I’ve become a YamaKi fan.  XDD  [Or at least I am becoming one.]   I have two episodes left…what’s going to happen?!  *finishes typing this so I can watch*

I’ve also been listening to SS501′s “Love Like This” from their REBIRTH Album/Mini-album/something.  I like it so much~~~  I only found out about it because my brother was showing me the Oricon charts for the week[?], and I saw ‘SS501′ under the KPop list and made him click it.  XD  But I really like all the songs on REBIRTH!  But I think “Love Like This” is my favorite one.  I feel like writing a Korean-fanfic with that title just because I like the title/song so much [but I have no idea what I'd write for it].  XD  Oh well.

I’ve added Perfect. Just Too Perfect. onto my list of recommended fanfictions.  I really liked reading that one~  It was just so…I don’t know how to describe it.  XD   It stars Yamapi & a fictional character.

& I think that there are signs of Yamapi becoming my favorite NewS member.  XD  I never really had one before……but he’s just….awesome!   [I thought he was a little odd, but funny in Nobuta Wo Produce.  He was/is absolutely one-of-a-kind hilarious in Kurosagi, though~  XDD]

His song “Daite Senorita” is awesome too~  You should totally go check it out.  XD

And a friend of mine just reminded me that today is Aaron Yan’s birthday!!!!  I can’t believe I actually forgot… >_<  It’s like when I forgot about Daiki’s and Ryosuke’s birthdays earlier this year…. ;_;  I’ve just been too busy….  [Haha, it was his birthday; no wonder I had such an awesome day at school~  Well, awesome enough.  XD]

Awww he’s 24 now~  I absolutely love his voice; and I hope I get to hear it in a new song some time soon!  I love all the solo moments and his solo songs!  I think that one of the ones that stand out/stood out the most to be was “願意不愛你 / Yuan Yi Bu Ai Ni / Willing to Not Love You”…it’s such a sad song, but it’s so good!  So…touching….

Now…to watch Kurosagi~~

In [preperation] for the holiday, I have written a 2009 Halloween Special which I have dedicated to my friend [since she was born on Halloween].  So, Happy Birthday to her as well!

It is titled Trick or Treat and can be read at my Endless Love Collection fanfic page!

(This title kind of makes me wonder what I’ll call the next Halloween Special I ever write….)

Oh, by the way, it’s not a creepy/scary Halloween Special…I’m not sure if I’ll ever write one of those.  XD

In addition to that, I have also posted the 4th teaser to Unspoken Sins~

I hope people are still reading/applying!!   XD

Now for more random stuff.

I FINALLY finished watching Meteor Shower/Let’s Go Watch the Meteor Shower/The-China-Version-of-Meteor-Garden-AKA-Hana-Yori-Dango-AKA-Boys-Before-Flowers/etc.

Honestly speaking, I didn’t think that that the ending was ALL that bad.  [To avoid spoiling it for other who may not have seen it yet, I will refrain from saying much more, but] I mean, it could’ve been better, but it definietely could’ve been a LOT worse….

At the beginning of this week[?], a friend also recommended the new Korean Drama, IRIS to me.  I watched an episode.  Seems pretty cool, so I might actually start watching more of it later on….

Apparently, there’s a lot of famous Korean artists acting in it…I think?  o_O  [I'm not too familiar with the Korean world, though....  But that's just what I was told.  XD]

I think I’m going to [finish] watch[ing] Delicious Gakuin next.  Has anyone ever seen it?  8D

I love the AAA (Attack All Around) people.  Well, I don’t know them very well [not as well as I know some Johnnys, probably XD], but I do like watching them in dramas.

Like Nishijima Takahiro in Ghost Friends with Fukada Saki?  That was an awesome drama~

Anyways, I’ve seen an episode of two of Delicious Gakuin like…a year…or two…or three[?] ago?  But I don’t really remember it…. XD

So, I think this calls for some rewatching!

I also [just found out] that Atae Shinjiro was also in a drama called TEIOH…although he’s not the main, the plotline seems pretty interesting….  That guy has always been able to catch my eye for some reason.  XD

And *gasp* Aiba Hiroki!!!  He was one of my favorites in Tadashii Ouji no Tsukurikata~  He was also in the Prince of Tennis Japanese Live Action!  [as Fuji Shusuke, my favorite!!]

And [last one, LOL] I also see Nakamura Yuichi, who was also in Futatsu no Spica!  [OMG, such a touching drama!  ;_; ]

Now that I can [recognize so many of them from other dramas], I shall be…expecting things of them.  LOL… Although, Delicious Gakuin was from 2007….but still!  8D

So once again, Happy Halloween everyone!

(And I hope to be able to update again soon….)

Still 4 more to go~

The next teaser will be posted on the 29th!

I’m kind of hoping for more applicants…but if I don’t get [enough?], I might just leave applications open even after the story starts….

MIGHT…..

I’m still thinking about it.  XD

The next one will be posted on October 21st!

The next one will be posted on the 6th; stay tuned!

As of now, all the guys (including Kame) are still open for applying, since I haven’t exactly made any other pairings ‘official’ yet [other than those that are reserved; meaning Yuto, Hikaru, and Daiki].

Teasers will be posted…I’m hoping once a week.

Daiki Arioka, Hikaru Yaotome, and Yuto Nakajima are taken, but you can still apply for them if you would like to [as love triangles?]

On the other hand, you can apply for Kazuya Kamenashi.  So…any Kame-fans out there?  o_o

“Unspoken Sins” will be my [first] attempt to write a mystery-type fanfic.  Just so you all…know?…As applications come in, [that is, assuming they do  XD  ,] I’ll start writing the actual chapters, just so I can get some sort of head-start rather than waiting for applications, closing applications, choosing applications, and then writing.  That would take too much time.

So, I’m not going to say it’s based on a first-come-first-serve basis, because it’s not, but…I think it’s safe to assume that the earlier you apply, the earlier you might appear in the story?  That’s just an assumption.

So, if you are interested, you can apply at Unspoken Sins, which is being posted at Winglin.

I hope to see you there!

I also updated another chapter of Cherishing Love with Chapter 12 as well.

I hope I’ll be able to update again soon….

Since I’m still hooked in HSJ, it will feature them, as well as people who apply.  I’m hoping that I’ll be able to incorporate all the applicants in some way, somehow, so even if you didn’t get “chosen,” you’ll still appear in the story.  [Unless you don't want to?]  Kamenashi Kazuya from KAT-TUN is also open for applying as well~

CREATIVE applications are always a plus, but please try to remain reasonable and uncontradictory.  You can always consult me if you have any questions or are unsure about anything [like crossing the boundaries of reasonability, etc.], or if there’s anything else you might need to add to your application/etc.  My contact information is at the end.  Personalities will be added by me, with your approval of them [if you're chosen].  The secret code is “I Still Love You the Most,” along with any person’s name in the ‘Extra’ section.  The person could be your most wanted partner, some random singer, etc.  The girls will not necessarily know each other.  Daiki Arioka, Hikaru Yaotome, and Yuto Nakajima are taken, but you can still apply for them if you’d like [for love triangle-type reasons]. Kazuya Kamenashi is also open for applying!
