If anyone is interested...

Check it out now for the first 4 tiny chapters of Kimchi for Beginners... ^_^

It's been that time of year again

So here I am at Anime 2010, with only 2 more hours to go. Sitting in the hotel lobby watching all the weird people go to and fro and pondering my place within this strange little world :)
This weekend I've enjoyed being with my friends, spending money, watching some performaces and then spending more money on merchandise to have it signed (should I add that I never heard of the performer before but my fangirl instincts made me want to stay in line for signing?).
And like every year there was a LOT of waiting involved throughout the weekend... And the 'comfort' of extremely warm and difficult-to-wear costumes... (pics will follow soon!)
... A perfect animecon weekend! :)

melancholy

Delta Dawn, what's that flower you have on
Could it be a faded rose from days gone by
And did I hear you say he was a-meeting you here today
To take you to his mansion in the sky

Can't get this song out of my head today. Makes me smile and cry at the same time...

Hello World!

I feel like a noob, I have a fancy new phone since last thursday. I'm enjoying it but still having some touchscreen-adjustment-probs.
With this phone I have mobile internet first time ever! But even that takes some getting used to. Am I really posting this entry through a tiny email window?? Or am I typing on my teeny tiny keyboard for nothing?
Hello? World?

2010... finally

Finally 2009 is over and done with, I've never been more ready for a year to be over than this time. The year sucked in so many ways, so many deaths in close family, facing unempoyment, being hit by a car... o.o It's easy to let that completely overshadow all the good things that I have to admit also happened this year: graduating from college, vacation in Hong Kong, 2 great conventions, meeting Trice, my contract being renewed after all.

Although I don't like new years resolutions (I'm not a fan of obligations) I made some in my heart anyway. This year I'll try to focuss on good things and on enjoying life, stop feeling like a victim.
The more material good intentions for 2010: moving into a flat of my own, visiting Japan before april 2011, maybe finally getting a driver's license.
I do realize these last 3 just aren't possible to fulfill financially, I should be lucky if I can fulfill maybe 2...

YOOSH! Let's do our best and make 2010 a good year together! I wish all of you happines, strength and luck to make all your dreams come true this year!

Abunai! 2009

It was that time of year again, the Abunai anime convention. 3 days of utter silliness and overdosing on energydrink :)
Of course as usual it was preceded by heavily stressing about cosplay and other preparational stuff (like trying to make a very cool video out of very bad material for a friend's cosplay act)...

The vid wasn't a complete disaster and I loooved my cosplay, so I guess this years mental breakdown was worth it again ^__^

 

To make the weekend even a lot more fun than the usual conventions: I finally met up with Trice! Had a lot of fun and fangirling together :D

Gah I hate returning to the real world again...

=D

For the first time in ages I finally had a clear, albeit short, bishiedream!!! It was a little bit sick though XD

Kubozuka Yosuke was my brother, but his love appearantly went a bit further then normal brotherly love (angel sanctuaru anyone? XD). We were in a hotelroom and kissed. A wonderful delightful kiss!

Unfortunately after that it got blurry and eventually the dream was about my ex-bf whom I'm having some issues with atm... =_=

*Gets mind back at Yosuke and drools*

Waltz

extreeeemely short part of my music-inspired story. this part was inspired by T's Waltz (from the drama Strawberry on the Shortcake <3)

 

Waltz

 

Fall showered the world with cold rain, but it couldn’t get a hold of them. Together they defied the bitter winds and kept each other safe.

 

They would share their lunches at the park. Quietly sitting on a bench, letting the silence tell its story. She would smile when she looked at him carefully dissecting his lunch before eating it. He would look up and gently wipe a small grain of rice from her cheek.

 

They would walk back to school holding hands. In that brief hour the world stopped turning.

 

At school nobody knew. Nobody would notice them disappearing.

Divided by the distance of the classroom, they’d patiently sit out their classes, waiting for a chance to reunite. Parted by his popularity and her seclusion, they would wait until they could fly again.

 

They continued this dance all autumn, waltzing their way between the world’s reality and their own. Never noticing how the rain wet their hair and how the wind chilled their faces.

 

They would sway back and forth, holding each other, wishing this could be forever.

Little untitled RyoPi fic...

 

It was almost midnight when Yamapi arrived at his apartment block. It had been a frustrating day and all he wanted was to get home and unwind.

 

With hurried steps he climbed the flight of stairs to his floor. He rummaged through his pockets in search of his keys as he walked briskly through the dim lit hallway. As he reached the door he finally spotted a dark figure leaning next to the door to his flat. The guy was all dressed in black, topped off with a dark hat hiding his face as he seemed to stare at the floor.

 

As Yamapi approached the guy looked up and touched the rim of his hat. “Yo”

“Ryo? What are you doing here?”, Yamapi asked as he looked at his fellow band member suspiciously. 

“Can’t I just pay you a visit without purely out of good intentions?” Ryo smiled sweetly.

Yamapi smirked. “Well, one can never be sure of your intentions”, he said accusingly and opened up the door.

Ryo took of his hat and looked Pi in the eyes “Can I come in?”

 

Yamapi’s lip twitch slightly as he seemed to consider this request. “It’s late, you should go home.” He stepped through the door and tried to close it behind him but was stopped by Ryo halting the door with his foot. Pi rolled his eyes and decided to give up, nothing can stop Ryo when he’s in a stubborn mood. The two guys entered the apartment.

 

Ryo slowly walked up and down the living room as Yamapi disappeared into the bedroom to change into a clean shirt.

Tired of waiting Ryo said with a loud voice, “You know, I was wondering how you could write a song like Daite Senorita, Pi. But I figured it out now, you always write what you feel! Pi, I know that you’re cheating on me!”

Immediately Yamapi popped out of the bedroom, his shirt still undone. “HUH? How could I cheat on you if I’m not even wíth you??”

Ryo approached with a menacing look.  “Maybe you think you’re not with me, but you are still mine,” he tilted his head as he stood closely in front of his opponent, “so don’t you dare cheat on me…”

Yamapi held ground and tried to hide the slight tremor in his voice. “It’s none of your business, Ryo. I can bloody well have sex with anyone I want to, whenever I want to!”

A wicked little smile appeared on Ryo’s face. As Pi wanted to turn away, Ryo grabbed his arm and pulled the guy towards him. Decidedly he planted his lips on Pi’s. His dark expression melted as he gazed into Yamapi’s eyes with his eyes half closed. “What is it you want, Pi?”. He answered him with a kiss.

 

The room was all dark, it was easier this way. They lay on the bed, exhausted. Ryo tried to focus his eyes but could only make out a vague silhouette of the slender figure lying beside him. He couldn’t resist letting his fingers slide over the smooth skin of Pi’s chest. Pi rolled over and let his hand rest just above Ryo’s bellybutton in return.

“Ryo-chan?”

“Hm?”

“I’m sorry”

“About what?”

“I’m sorry for cheating.”

Ryo folded his arms back under his head.

“That’s OK, Pi, I’ll forgive you.”

 

Angels?

Right now I'm going through some very tough emotional stuff, so maybe I'm seeeking too much behind things. But I want to share this strange thing that happened yesterday anyway.

I was coming home from my mom's place by train. Going home felt like a really heavy burden, I was feeling so tired and emotional when I finally got off the train. I would have to wait at the busstop for 15 minutes and was really disliking the thought of those 15 quiet minutes.
From a distance I saw there was another woman waiting for the bus. I really can't explain why but when I saw her, even though it was quite far away, for no reason whatsoever the word 'angel' shot through my head. Of course I didn't give this a second thought at the time.
I walked on to the busstop and stood there waiting, a bit to the side as usual. the woman was sitting a couple of metres away on a bench. Then she told me we had just missed the bus (she had a very lovely foreign accent :)). I pointed out to her that it was sunday so the bus would come in 15 minutes, this made her very relieved. She then kept on talking to me and even got up to stand next to me and talk. This is something that absolutely never happens to me, I'm really not the kind of person to attract random talks with strangers (i probably made it a habit to stand at the side of the busstup to even prevent these conversations...)
The woman sounded so happy and spirited, it made me cheerful as well. She told me about another time she missed the last bus and how she then got a lift home from a stranger. She told how happy she was to meet such a nice person and stated "as long as there is even only 1 good person on this earth, the world won't come to an end yet". She also said how we should just trust in eachothers kindness, if you only distrust people you're life feels awful.
Recently I have been feeling lost and unsure what the point is of being alive in this world, so what this woman said to me really struck a chord...

Maybe I'm overreacting, but I really can't shake the thought that this woman (this angel?) was sent to me purposely to keep me company when I needed it and to give me the divine message of trust...
