CYANOSIS.

Sun, 08 Jul 2007 15:40:48 GMT

i'm good at wasting my time.
also, i'm lonely. extremely lonely. also, our main teacher this semester is ridiculously strict + the biggest sexist i have ever met.
but i'm doing okay? kindof. i like trains, yamanote line, especially. and those giant pedestrian crossings. among other things.
friday night, i went with kristoffer to ni-chome, which was interesting. there was a tanabata tree in one of the clubs so i wrote 生きられるように ("i want to be able to live") on a tanzaku (though in retrospect, i'm pretty sure i forgot to write the き. (alcohol makes you do crazy things. right.)), which seemed like the right wish to make. no more failing-at-life! it hasn't come true yet, but. still.

meiji shrine!

disneyland!

when i first got here, the trees looked like this:

and i honestly thought they were all dead, because that seemed to make sense. they grew leaves sometime in may, though.

and on the topic of trees, there was (blurry) sakura,

end.

selling things, auction-style.

Wed, 14 Mar 2007 18:09:53 GMT

i'm moving to tokyo, and this requires money. because of this, the following items are in need of new, loving homes. ;_;

comment to place a bid on an item.
if someone else has already done so, reply to their comment with your own bid; so that the entire bidding process for an item is in its own separate thread.
also because of this, if you're interested in several items, please inquire in separate comments.
since i'd like to end this as soon as possible (...which sounds a little gloomy, but anyway. ^^; i'm leaving on the 24th, that's why), an auction ends 48 hours after its first commenter.

shipping: airmail. will cost a bit, since i live at the end of the world. $3 inside sweden, $5 inside europe, $7 outside europe. (this should be true for most items, but if you're wondering about a specific one, please ask in comments.)
this does not include insurance.
will combine shipping (when possible).

payment: paypal or concealed cash.

all prices in USD.

cam'flage vhs
starting price: $30

for some reason, this one refused to come out pretty in pictures. the cover is actually a delightful hot pink shade. ^^;;;
...anyway. cam'flage is a band in which ryutaro & tadashi are said to have played a long long time ago. there's no tarou to be seen in this video though (the vocalist is someone called hidetaka, with an awe-striking hairstyle about three feet high). but tadashi is there! all tiny & awkward <-(...that adjective goes for the entire band) & rocking mana's mdm hair ten years before mana himself!
the video contains four songs, performed at route14 in motoyawata.
ntsc compatible.

kurotent vhs
starting price: $15

video -> picture booklet -> lyrics booklet.

comes with a picture booklet (in the middle in the above picture). 22 pages of pretty pretty live pictures ♥
since i bought this second hand, the packaging shows some wear, but it's not damaged or anything.
ntsc compatible.

プラ uniform shirt
starting price: $20

this is an official sweet-heart/fanunlimited product & is identical (except, maybe, that the pura mark on this one is a bit smaller?) to the shirts the boys themselves have worn on several occasions.
i've only worn it once, and it was still in original, unopened plastic packaging when i got it, so it's in excellent condition.
size: marked as small, but i'd say it fits more like a rather large medium. measures 50 cm (19 inches) across chest, & 63 cm (24 inches) from shoulder to hem. probably meant to be a bit loose-fitting?

16th floor elevator shirt
starting price: $15

old tour shirt. print says: "XVIth Floor Elevator / Plastic Tree / 1999".
brand new when i got it. i've worn it maybe... three times? or so. but it doesn't show any signs of it.
measures 46 cm (18 inches) across chest, 62 cm (24 inches) from shoulder to hem.

sink shirt
starting price: $15

the back says "plastic tree".
closeup of the print.

if this is a tour design, it's a very un-obvious one, but it has the sweet-heart/fanunlimited tag like the other two shirts. the print is an english->japanese dictionary excerpt, with the entry for "sink" in red.
never worn it.
measures 43 cm (17 inches) across chest, 76 cm (30 inches) from shoulder to hem. it's very... long, obviously.

newyears comment tape
starting price: $10

comment tape for newyears 2002, with tadashi & akira. drawing on the cover done by ryutaro.

namae no nai hana single
starting price: $10

complete with obi & first press extra -- a 12-page calendar for 2006. (actually, namae~ only came with the pages for january-april, but since keeping the rest would be kind of pointless, i'm sending all 12 pages.) as a calendar, it's kind of useless now that it's 2007, but it's pretty so wth *_*

sanbika single
starting price: $10

complete with obi (which isn't in the picture, though. it's plastic & weird & kept falling off).
since this is the first press, you can watch the pv if you put the cd in your computer.

NOTE ABOUT POSTERS;

all of them, except the mucc "6" one, have been up on my wall for some amount of time. so, there are tiny marks in the corners, from the pins. most also have some minor crinkles here & there, but nothing unusual or very noticable.

chiriyuku bokura poster
starting price: $7

bought this from third stage some time ago. don't have much to say about it, except that it's the prettiest poster i've ever owned & totally not as blurry looking as in this picture. :O
20x28 inches.

cell poster
starting price: $5

came with the first press of cell. it has never been folded, though it still has a few creases for some reason i'm not sure of. (if your computer screen is light enough, they're visible to the right inside the big black circle.) not very noticable, though; unless you look closely.
20x28 inches.

shirochronicle poster
starting price: $5

came with the first press of shirochronicle. folded, for some reason, so it has some creases from that (as you can see in the picture).
20x28 inches.

mucc 6 poster
starting price: $8

came with the first press of 6. (also sold during their european tour, i think?) 20x28 inches. completely unused.

tatsurou zy poster
starting price: $1

from zy vol 19 (nov~dec 2004).
22x16 inches.
janne da arc on the other side. <-(that's not the entire band though, is it? i'm clueless.)
will send it with postcard from the same photoshoot.

pla zy poster
starting price: $1

from zy vol 15 (march~april 2004).
22x16 inches.
hakuei (penicillin) + ruka (nightmare) on the other side.
will send it with postcard from the same photoshoot.

pla + mucc + psycho le cemu poster
starting price: $2

from zy mega edition 01. doubles as a calendar (...for 2004. ^^;;). ryutaro looks slightly less evil, & akira slightly less zombie-like, on the actual poster. & the plc guys actually have faces.
16x23 inches.

pla shoxx poster
starting price: $1

from shoxx vol 129 (nov 2003).
23x16 inches.

hisashiburi, as usual.

umm okay.
let's try this livejournal thing again.

since my last post (which was longer ago than i thought o_o), i have:
had the worst new years eve of my life + rediscovered the beauty of libraries ♥ + become way too absorbed in hana yori dango. (what is it with me & cheesy j-dramas? hm.)
annnnd i think that's it. friends&acquaintances are moving away from this city at a horrifying rate. as of right now, i have about two left, though luckily they're my two closest ones.

i'll be leaving soon too. i think. kristoffer (aka spook for you denkipoppers) & i paid for our tickets today: tokyo, march25. though we're still not sure whether everything will work out with the school or not, agh. no, not stressed at all! x_x
HOWEVER
i'm 97% sure it will.
in which case i'll be leaving in like, a month. to tokyo, for one whole year; WHY YES that's pretty wtf. i know i want to go, but i'm not sure why i want to go. japan isn't this Big Shiny Dream of mine anymore, like when i was 17 (even though that's not that long ago ^^;).
but, it still feels nice: challenging myself, having some change of scenery. seeing pla! &mucc! & some others, i guess. learning the language better. i like languages (in a very nerdy way, haha), i like japanese. and i like big cities. i'll be fine, hopefully.

let's just hope i'll be able to go~ x_x if the school decides now that something's wrong with our papers, i think i'm going to cry.

room A exhibits 18 kinds of jellyfishes.

ii) life is exhausting.

iv) my brother bought a wii yesterday (queueing outside the store from like 1am on the release day; totally hxc ^^;) & zelda twilight princess is such a pretty game omg.

Sat, 19 Aug 2006 02:01:54 GMT

i made a shuuji icon. wtf julia, you're too into this. "this", of course, being nobuta wo produce. which is very: a) visually stunning (as in, colours&sceneries; not KAME&YAMAPI ZZOMG KAWAII, though that's kind of true as well. I SAID IT. WHAT ._.), b) quirky&weird in a very good way. even dreamlike, sometimes & c) way too touching wtf. love.

also; the existence of heidi. makes me veryvery happy. because they're practically kalimero, & they'll ~~probably~~ hopefully still be active by the time i come to japan OMGYES
