echostream is an oh so lovely band. Quite different from anything else I've put up so far. They're best described as ambient, electronica and just the kind of lounge music you would smoke to on a dark and lonely night. Fufufufu. . Ryoko's voice is very airy and it suits the music very well. She sings entirely in english and their music is really good to listen to if you're in the mood for something mellow.



I would recommend trying Just Kill Me and Burning Sky. Those two are by far their best songs. I picked them up at rotation site a few years ago and loved it. echostream seems to only have two albums. The other one I can't get my hands on cause they seem to be such an obscure band >__________< Anways here's like.. most of the songs on their Identity album.



echostream - Just Kill Me
echostream - Burning Sky
echostream - Creep (Radiohead cover)
echostream - One Last Cigarette
echostream - Shadow on the Ground

gotta love the lyrics... XDDDD

OMG... I want a bass guitar. Just for the sake of hugging one to sleep. So damn sexy. >___< Tissue princess. Straightener's Hinata. I want them all. Correction. I want a bass guitarist to hug to sleep.




Um.. I suck at describing. T____T Apogee is quite a soft band. Softer than any of the bands I've introed before. But they have awesome deep bass lines and a lot of funk. I think the vocals stands out the most. The first time I had heard Just A Seeker's Song I had trouble telling if it was a guy or girl singing. But argh.. well I love it. ;-; He sings like a woman, but he sounds so soft and fluffy against your ear. There tends to be a bit of english in the chorus, but it's actually not engrish... headdesk engrish. Surprisingly he can sing it quite well. Just not sure if it actually makes sense. xDD

My two favorite songs are Just A Seeker's Song and Yakan Hikou, but they're actually quite.. different from their usual sound. A little more mainstream maybe. Still they're something I'd put in a playlist if I was to go driving. That is.. if I had a car. That is.. if I had a license. That is.. if I bother to go to the closest RTA office.

Apogee - Just a Seeker's Song
Apogee - Yakan Hikou
Apogee - GIRAFFE
Apogee - Ghost Song
Apogee - ahiru




anywwwwwwwwwwwwwho. I'M SO SCREWED FOR EXAMS!!!!! GAAAAAAAWWW.
12th Friday -- Audit (55%)
15th Monday -- Accounting 3a (60%)
18th Friday -- Business Taxation (40%)

It would be okay if I was actually up to date, but I'm still catching up on my readings. And I haven't been to a lecture since week 5. >_______________________________>;; I really do hope I pass this semester. I mean.. ;-; I've been fluking it so far. But if I do fail I might lose my job offer. I dunno how this grad offer works. But I'm scared shitless. Probably not scared enough to stress just yet though. Maybe I am. I can kind of feeling it steadily rising, like vomit rising in your throat. (￣_￣)

I bought a wacom intuos 3~!!! Last week actually. 6x8 They sell it with a student discount at the uni bookstore so it pretty much costs what a 4x6 would cost outside. Ahem. It hasn't been opened yet but I'm going to deflower it like a mad and angry rapist once these exams are over. Just you watch.

Whoop. Here we go again. >w< I'm so excited~ I found someone I can fangirl with about the same music. Haven't found anybody like that in the loooongest time. We've arranged to swap some music so I'm compiling a CD. Gahahaha. All of this is so great~ ;-;




So here is school food punishment. Soooo awesome xD;; They're indie, electronic with a female vocalist. Quite jpop but super catchy. I'd recommend You May Crawl. It won me over the first time I heard it and considering that was their first release, it's pretty impressive. So impressive I spelt it the first time with three 'S's ~___~ pool is my fave ~ But they're all pretty good and the album art looks psychedelic.

~~~ヾ(＾∇＾) Hullo, hullo ~ I'm stressed with exams/assessments

But here's what I've been listening to lately. I'm currently obsessing over this particular song. It's sooooo good. GAAAAAAAAAH ;______; <3333333333333333 I'm liking the male and female vocal combination. I think they sound similar to Veltpunch except these guys are a little catchier. I'm not allowed to upload winnie stuff but you can try getting them at some_day_music ^___^







And I'm wondering if they used the same girl from Veltpunch's DIC954. I swear it is.. Compare compare. They're both awesome. xD

~~~ヾ(＾∇＾) Uploads again. Feeling emo? Cry yourself to sleep? Do you think life is unfair? Then this music is for you!!!

Okay. I only joke. ~__~ Here is downy (ダウニ)





These guys are basically experimental and uh.... creepy. According to last.fm they're also 'sludge' and 'shoegaze'. Haha. I think it describes them perfectly actually. If you listen to a few of their songs I guess you would understand what the tag means. I also read somewhere that the vocalist, Robin Aoki (what a cool name) is half Japanese and half Indian.. which I think is an awesome mix. XDD His voice is very much faded, girly and creepy like Anthony Green.. maybe.

They're not screamo mind you. Quite melodic imo. Mokuren sounds like the music in Phoenix Wright.. like you know when something dramatic has happened. Haha. Underground is my favorite. So trippy maaaaan~

exist the album and song is kick ass xDD These guys are indie rock and um.. what can I say. ~___~ I usually don't like female vocals but I seem to like this band. She sounds a bit like ayaka but in an Avril Lavigne way. I kinda wish they were just a teeensy bit more heavier. Gosh when she sings she makes having long hair look so awesome.


Um yes.. I'm procrastinating ._____.

( My current playlist >w< )

Full of love.. ;-; <3


In the end I still think that I like Riki's (ART-SCHOOL) voice the best regardless of how filtered and crappy it is. But the king of throat cancer has to be Chiba Yusuke (THEE MICHELLE GUN ELEPHANT/THE BIRTHDAY). I found this picture..



He's just gushing with awesome and manliness. (≧▽≦) Actually he looks like Nagase Tomoya in one of those yakuza roles. I would like to buy the Chiba Yusuke figurine. Hahaha. Maybe I should add that to my wish list .____.

Mnn I recommend trying the album Maggot in Tears by KAREN. I tried it from somedaymusic and it's soooo lovely. KAREN is literally ART-SCHOOL womanized haha. You can hear Riki in the background of Lorraine. Makes me fangasm lots.


P.S Wow it's thundering.. xD;; I didn't hear that until I took off my headphones.

For those special moments with your loved one..

Ah yes... I'm done procrastinating. (￣▽￣)

sludge music.. oh yeah im toootally feeling it


xDDDDD;

day wasted.


But to keep myself sane I'll put on Mae when I go to sleep. I don't want to wake up with cut wrists ~_______~;;

~~~ヾ(＾∇＾) Here is my new love... ストレイテナー (STRAIGHTENER)




ストレイテナー - PLAY THE STAR GUITAR
ストレイテナー - Lightning
ストレイテナー - SIX DAY WONDER
ストレイテナー - Discography
ストレイテナー - Magic Blue Van
ストレイテナー - SAD AND BEAUTIFUL WORLD



I think it's quite hard to compare but they're similar to ART-SCHOOL and sometimes very 'the pillows'-esque. They're not as soft though and their melodies are quite simple and repetitive like supercar. Sounds a little less Japanese and more english mainstream actually. I'm not particularly fond of the vocals but the it grew on me. I just wish he wouldn't sing in english makes him sound so whiney （￣_￣）


I'd recommend trying Lightning and PLAY THE STAR GUITAR. My personal fave is Magic Blue Van. It's really awesome. T___T If you like them try downloading their LINEAR or Nexus album. ^^

Question: What's a good program to edit videos with? I want to put like a logo or something at the bottom of some recording we did.. I really suck at computers. ~____~;;

Cause I -must- do this every semester...



I'm so screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed screwed


I have accounting 2b final tomorrow. Please lend me your brains and I'll pay it back with interest.

His voice is so sexy... ;_________; It's like.. absolutely perfect for this song. If all the songs in this world were sung by one artist, it would be Satou-san's voice >DD

Even though... I haven't heard any of his music other than this cover. ~_____~



The point of this post is that.. I also got a call from PwC. They were kinda like the last company I expected to hear a response from, but after applying for all 4 firms I haven't gotten any rejections yet. xDD That's a good sign right?

There's an interview tomorrow and Monday, but both days I actually have a mid-sem exam. I don't know what to do though. The recruitment guy says he will get back to me. (or maybe he wont >____>) But should I even bother? .___. I'm happy with E&Y's offer and I heard that PwC works their auditors like slaves. And they take the elites of the elites. My WAM isn't that great though. It's only a high credit.

So yeaaaaaaaah.. I dunno should I just say no or keep trying for other firms? I mean I have exams and assignments and stuff.. ~____~;; But like it's a good opportunity to also see what the other accounting firms are like. The reason why I applied for all 4 is because I thought I would only hear from one or two. xDDD;;



Did you notice my LJ layout is screwed up? I can't click nothing either. ;___; But but.. I don't want to change it. Maybe cause I'm a bit lazy finding a nice layout.

"It's nice to know that you were there
Thanks for acting like you care
I can hardly catch my breath.. "


..what weird lyrics xDD;; But I love it anywho.



I just wanted to ask... why do ppl lick their fingers before they hand out papers???? .____. It's like the strangest habit I've ever seen and my tutor is a compulsive finger licker. Does it actually help you flick through pages better? Is it necessary? ~____~

It's just gross to see a wet mark on your page yknow.. ;O;

Found this song mash. I really love it. ;__;

I copicz...!



男だぞ~

Quick 5 minute doodle cause I can only do THIS angle and THIS angle only. *dies* I hadn't touched them since I bought them at SMASH but I really should practice. Copic markers are so expensive.. ;__;

Must catch them all! >w< *lame*

Cause Motou is so hot in this .___. Well you don't get to see his face a lot, but I like his lankiness.. and hair. He looked good in Tentai Kansoku too.

So my type ~(>3<)~

Quick question:


How many moons do you guys have on your nails?




I only have 3. The thumbs, and one on the right index finger.
I read in a magazine that a lack of moons on your nails means poor circulation.

I'm suddenly liking black tea for some reason.

Such an awesome song. xDD Fu listens to them a lot, so naturally I'd love this song. xDD But it's so cool! Especially when the band dressed up in Star War outfits for one of the MTV awards. There was a storm trooper on the guitar and bass. Omg it's hot. It's like... the Stig on a guitar. *drools*


Anyways here's a few things I've decided I want:


My first car to be a Mini Cooper or Cooper S. (Though I really doubt it .__.;;)
But it's so cute! Especially in the chili red. Hahaha.
The typical mini cooper driver would be like a korean wearing ralph lauren vests and hats... and shit... I dunno. That's what I imagine. Maybe cause it looks like a golf cart.

My next mobile to be Sony Ericsson Z750a (It's kinda ooold but I think I'll get it later this year.. unless something just as cute comes out x3)
I like how the inside is all white and bubbly. And its kinda chunky, good to hold on to. I don't like the whole thin, black and sleek thing going on with other mobiles. Like the one that I have. ;O; It's like choosing between Nana and Hachi. I would chose Hachi.

My first laptop would be a Sony Vaio. ..vaoi. whatever thingies. I don't need a hyperawesomepentium10 laptop. (Also cause my dad recommended it to me. Maybe cause he thinks I'm like the bimbo omg that's so cute! type. Well maybe I am... .___.;;)
I'm buying one of those when I go overseas.

Also going to Indonesia in July.

Another tattoo but I dunno what yet... I really like my cousin's idea. The outline of a lotus in just black or blue on the inside of the wrist. But I can't do that now can I? xDD;;
Besides cheap makeup is good to cover up stuff like that.
My arm looks a little chunky these days... .___. I reckon its the textbooks.



Kinda ambitious.. but just you wait. >>;;
