Hee.
You Americans better brace yourself, because BoA's English debut album is almost complete. She has been keeping it a secret and dang, she knows how to keep one.
I can't state my source, because of BZP's advertising rules. But yaay! *dances*
And in May and June, BoA will have her Japanese concert tour.
Hopefully the DVD of the tour will be out as soon as possible. xD
My Poetry entry has been posted. You can read Unfinished~ here. Replies are most welcomed.
I was going to call it Timeless~, but Unfinished~ sounded better.
The poem is very personal for me, since it came straight from my heart.
Update: I've created a banner for support.
Turians and asari are cool~
Hi, hello. It's been a while since my last entry. I've been a bit..uninspired. And tired.
Anyway, there have been some ups and downs.
One of the positive things is me obtaining my Photoshop/ImageReady certificate. Yay me.
It seems my little assignment left a positive impression. It has been printed out and hangs in the cantina at work, where the assignments of the others are hanging as well. In fact, mine is hanging at the back wall, so it's the first one y
Wooh~ My BoA image collection is up to date again! At least, from one of my sources..
That means a new banner is coming soon.
I finished reading "The Fall of Reach" last week end and I must say... DANG! That was an awesome book! I wanna read it again! I will, after I finish reading "Vector Prime" from the Star Wars: New Jedi Order series. So far so good!
The payment issue has been corrected, and the item will be on its way to my warm and snuggly home soon. ^n^
I, Robot is a cool movie.
Hm, yes.. When writing down a number in a sentence, like 34 or one thousand, it's probably best if you don't use Roman numerals. Especially number one, the "I". It gets particularly disconcerting when you're reading a few sentences and suddenly you'll read something like "There was I Toa". I don't know about you, but I'm used to reading the "I" in there as the me-person, not a Roman numeral*. It's especially annoying when in the rest of the text all of the other numbers are written down in digi
Mass Effect is playing along very nicely. I think it's becoming an addiction... It's just such a great experience. I recommend it to everyone who has an Xbox 360.
Now to find the prequel book Mass Effect: Revelation.
Speaking of books, I've ordered some books earlier this evening. They are The Fall of Reach and Vector Prime, both from very popular franchises. They'll arrive in the following week if everything goes as planned.
I've also ordered Burnout Revenge for the Xbox 360, but I think
New Year's was fun, although there was a tiny little problem outside.
In the past 24 hours, people fired so many fireworks, the gun powder vapours and such actually turned into an unnatural fog. O.o;; Going outside is actually suicide, I guess. xD The stench is that bad. Visibility was only about 7-10 meters at the fog's worst.
Fun...
My trip to Nijmegen was fun, especially because we took some wrong turns and ended up in the wrong place. My bad. xD
Anyway, when we were there, I bought myself a cool axe. It wasn't sharpened, but I didn't mind.
I also bought some special editions of some great albums.
The Divine Conspiracy by the Dutch symphonic metal band Epica is an album you have to experience. Almost all of the songs are just so..amazing. A must-buy. Really. Do itt!!! *cough*
Once by Nightwish is still a fantas
Let's see... It seems I still have 16 singles and special albums to go until I have completed my BoA audio collection. The costs of everything will be US$221.48. I won't buy everything at once, of course. Maybe three or four at a time. Free shipping FTW.
After that, there's still one Korean DDVD and all of the SMTOWN summer and winter albums. BoA's 2008 album has already been preordered. I'll also mention the "Be With You" single that will be released at the same time as the album. Haven't p
I hope everyone's enjoying their Christmas time. I know I do. I watched the second Harry Potter film today. (Yesterday, the first film was on the telly.)
Fun movies. The third one will be broadcasted tomorrow.
Well, I didn't get any presents for Christmas, but I don't mind. Christmas for me means to be with the ones you love (if possible). And I'm just not a very materialistic person.
Yeah, I changed the title of my Blog, seeing it's Winter and all. Also, not many people could see the Ko
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone of yas. Enjoy the time you have with the people you (hopefully) love.
...And now I'm really going to bed.
bye
It is decided: I'll buy an Xbox 360 in January (approx. two weeks from now). I'll probably do the 360 Viva Piñata/Forza 2 pack or the Halo 3 pack if I'm able to find it. No use in buying a console if there are no games to go with it.
I am unable to wait.
Well, it seems that on one day in the next one and a half weeks, I'll go with a few fellow metalheaded friends to the city of Nijmegen to visit a certain store called "State Off Art". It's a store that has a lot of metal items and occult stu
Time to get used to the cold blue of winter..
Winter. The coldest of the seasons. Snow and frost make their way into our lives, bringing darkness and, for many people, loneliness. For others, a lot of light, pleasure, romance and love.
*sigh* I can only dream of the latter right now... For me, Winter is a lonely season and if you've been keeping up with my blog, you know why.
Whether it's a snow storm or the ice cold of the wind, Winter is a powerful season. It also brings along the hol
I'm sorry if I'm not in a partying mood right now. It's just that this has made a giant impact on my emotions.
A long time ago, I made the suggestion for BoA to take a break. I told her so in one of my letters.
It seems I was also partially right when I sensed the negative feelings that were hidden deep inside her.
Too bad it was already a year too late. =/
That's partially what makes me feel bad, ya know? What if I had started writing her sooner? Would her feelings be different? (No o
It appears BoA is going to end her singing career (temporarily?) to study in the United States. Ever since the release of her Best Of album (Best of Soul in 2005), she hasn't been enjoying working as a singer anymore.
Yeah, I'm quite sad about her decision, but I completely understand what she's going through and she has my full support. She'll always have my full support. And of course I won't love her less. =_,=
In recent performances and the SMTown music video "Only Love", if you look
Mmm... wine... *takes a sip*
...
Alcohol-free, herbal wine, that is. Awesome taste. 't Was my mother's birthday, explaining my lack of activity today. Happy 53rd birthday, Mom!
She got a very nice present from me: The latest album from the Eagles.
Like with my birthday, there weren't many people. 't Was very enjoyable though.

Well, it seems I might need some glasses soon. Finally.
You see, my eyes don't work together, so I experience a lot of double-vision, which can be quite annoying. Also, my left eye has very poor vision. It's also what they call 'lazy'. And now my right eye is beginning to get worse.
The glasses can make my eyes work together again.
Maybe these? xDD
Yesterday I got my first taste at how it's like to playing a game on an XBox 360, since my best friend bought one this week. The new controller took a few minutes to get used to, but it was no biggie.
We played Gears of War.
We played a lot of Gears of War.
I loved every minute of it.
My decision has been made: I'm going to save for an XBox 360.
I'm tired. Didn't get a lot of sleep this week. Probably going to spend half of my weekend asleep again. =_,=
Egh, oh well.. The theme of the Short Stories Contest is nice.. I'll see if my mind will be creative enough in the following weeks for an entry. I might go with something mysterious...
Me entering also depends on if I can break away from some awesome games. I've been pretty fascinated by Second Sight and Vampire: The Masquerade - Redemption.
Agh, such cool games they are... =_,= L
