i took a quiz on Quizilla and this is the result, forgot the link tho..opps. i have been lookign at more JRock bands and started downloading Malice Mizer songs again, to find that actually they are a really good and interesting band!

(from left)Yu-ki(bass), Mana(keyboard), Klaha(vocals), and Kozi(guitar)
Note - In there time so far there has been 3 singers, the band was most famous when Gackt was their singer.
Malice Mizer are unlike any other JRock band, or at least I have never came across a band like them. They mix classical sound with Rock music to make Gothic songs - most of their songs is like this. I like the band most when Gackt was in it, his voice was very interesting and he has a shocking past life.
Favourite Songs:
1. Syunikiss
2. Unmei no Deai
3. Regret
4. Color Me Blood Red
5. Beast of Blood
6. Gekka no Yasoukyoku
7. Au Revoir
8. Uruwashiki Kamen
9. Seinaru koku Eien no Inori
10. Gardenia

Live 8 - achieved or failed it's goal?
I believe Live 8 failed it's goal - however I also believe that the G8 Summit will give more relief to Africa. There are many reasons why Live 8 was rubbish in my opinion and it starts all the way from Japan - to the last concert in Philidelphia. What the Japanese did wrong is they didn't advertise the G8 concert that much, or didn't show the Japanese population what it really about. Also the people they had performing there was rubbish - McFly? Bjork?where the hell was Dir En Gray!?*ahem* my point is, McFly is a petty band and non-poilitical. They should have got political or outspoken performers for this event, mainly Japan. The problem mainly with Japan and all the rest of the World was that most of the people were there just for the music - free tickets? The people won't put up a good enough fight. I have noticed on msn a message like this come up - ''Please put a 3 at the start of your name to show you have respect for the children who die every 3 seconds in Africa''. Unlike most people, I did not give in. 500,000 people with 3 at the start of their names won't make a spec of a difference! Flip, sorry about this, you must think I am really political, which i have been called by many people. Just when I have a view I am very strong about it. I did like some performances at Live 8 such as -
Greenday in Germany
Black Eyed Peas in Philidelphia
Robbie Williams in Hyde Park
That is abit random, Greenday - American rock, Black Eyed Peas - hip/funk, Robbie Williams - British rock, Mariah Cariah - slow pop mostly. My favourite would have to be Mariah Cariah. Anyway, onto some recent news, I only chosen to do that report on Live 8 because I could not think what else to write at 04:27am on a Saturday morning!
''When a hero falls...a legend will rise'' - Casshern.
Casshern is a Japanese fantasy film about a soldier(Casshern, above) who died when he lifted a babie from on top of a grenade, and accidently triggered the grenade. His mother was blind and shortly died after she found out he was dead, It was very traggic for her. He was very close to his seargent/commander/whatever the Japanese call it in the 21st century. His commander was also a scientist. However there was one experiment that went wrong involving cyborgs. A alien(that's what i would call it) force came from the sky and somehow, the cyborgs came to life. Most of them were killed off tho, but 4 survived...
This was the leader of that pack and yes - he is the evil one. The other 3 were his servents. i did not really understand the movie - as I downloaded it with no subtitles but what i can gather is that he wants revenge for his people, but one person stood in his way - Casshern. Casshern's dad was a scientist which was the person that made him look as he is (with the suit). I should probably not tell you anymore ^_^ The theme tune is from Utada Hikaru.
i was in Dublin on Thursday for a day *yay* got loadsa clothes and stuff which was kul. I also like Snow Patrol now, I got there 'Live at SomerHouse' dvd. I really like Dublin cause it is buzzing and is full of asian people hehe. Today my bro Andrew is coming home from France, can't wait to see him!!! :D
Mood - Happy
Music - Shonen Knife - I am a Cat
No more Japanese lessons, sorry, but I would rather write more in my blogs and I have 3 blogs in total now! lol

Takeshi-haruhiko...GUILTY!
  
*Lois*
Takako just came on to tell me that Kayako won her case against her Ex-husband. He abused her and did all sort of things to her, and in the end, got 12 years in prison. 
http://www.furinkan.com/tomobiki/wagaku/artists/hide.htm
I read that article about Hideto-san and also watched a news report this morning about the death of hide, and his memorial day - it also included Yoshikis speech. it made me cry, because it was so sad. He was a truly great musician, and at 34 it seemed like the best was still to come - but that was stopped by his senseless death.
  
1998 - Hideto "hide" Matsumoto, musician (b. 1964)
Part Expert Kisser |
You're a kissing pro, but it's all about quality and not quantity
You've perfected your kissing technique and can knock anyone's socks off
And you're adaptable, giving each partner what they crave
When it comes down to it, your kisses are truly unforgettable |
Part Playful Kisser |
Kissing is a huge game for you, a way to flirt and play
You're the first one to suggest playing spin the bottle at a party
Or you'll go for the wild kiss during a game of truth or dare
And you're up for kissing any sexy stranger if the mood is right! |
I taken this quiz from www.blogthings.com
Here are some pics of the Duke of Edinburgh Expedition I had a few weeks ago, they are photos taken from the webcam so they are not really good - I have a scanner and printer but the computer need fixed or something so i could not scan them, sorry - 
 
Thinkin back I hated that Expedition, lots of blisters and so on, and my shoulders were killin me. But all in all, I suppose it's better to have done it than to not, for the certificate sake!
Time for Japanese lesson :D

''There are 4 things guys think about - booze, sex, food and woman''
I was wondering if this is true or not, but I don't know.
Booze - yes I think about booze.
Sex - haha...yes.
Food - I think my stomach growling all the time can tell you yes.
Woman - well in my case Lois, and yeh i think of her.
Ok, well I suppose Lois was right then hehe.
I am waiting for Takako on msn at the moment. I told her me and Lois could beat her ''longest kiss record''(20 minutes), me and Lois beat it!
TAKA TAKA TAKA WHERE ARE YOU!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
I came back from Lois's house at 12:45 last night *wow*, me and her were up to our usual mischief weren't we Lois? lmao. I didn't actually get to sleep until 2am and walk up later at 7:30, how the hell does that work out? Me and Lois have came up with the prediction that there is a little monster in my Stomach, which makes sense since it wouldn't shut up last night. My mum and her fiancee are on a 3-day holiday trip down South Ireland, in Limavady, which I was out so late(cause mum was not about). I left the computer on by accident, and it downloaded loads of Metal Gear Solid stuff lmao.
Me and Lois went to see Mr& Mrs Smith last night. It was a good movie, but lasted near enough 3 hours, which made us very sleepy hehe.
Quote of the day - ''Cheese ,Cheese ,Cheese ,Cheese , Cheese''

oh Taka is on now hehe
Ill skip todays Japanese but will make a lesson for tomorrow.
Mantane!

are you ready for the STORY OF THE VOODOO DILDO?
There was once a man and he knew his wife was a randy bitch. He was worried because he had to go away on business for two weeks, and he knew his wife would get horny and probably end up shagging some one else because she needed sex,
he didnt know what to do, but in the end he went into a dildo shop (Dildos Are Us). He asked the man behind the counter if he had any really special dildos that he could buy for his wife. The shop owner said he did, and produced from behind the till a dildo in a silk box.
"That doesnt look any different from any other dildo," the man said.
But the shop owner told him it was -"This is a voodoo dildo. Its very clever you know, all she has to do is say 'Voodoo Dildo, my pussy' and it will fly out of the box and right up your wifes pussy.'
The man was so impressed by this magical dildo that he bought it straight away and went home to give it to his wife.
"This is a special dildo," he told her. "All you have to do is say 'voodoo dildo, my pussy' and it will fly out of the box and straight into your pussy!'
With that, he left for his business trip.
his wife remained ok for a few days but then she began to get sexual urges. So she took the box out of the bag and put it infront of her.
"Voodoo dildo, MY PUSSY!" she cried, and sure enough, the dildo flew out of the box and hit her hard between the thighs. It was great for the wife, but suddenly, she realised she didnt know how to get it out again.
She pulled and pulled but it just wouldnt come out. In the end she got into her car and started driving, with the dildo still vibrating right up her pussy.
Because of this she was all over the road. Eventually, she was flagged down by a police man.
The police man was outraged and asked her why she had been driving so badly. The wife exaplained about the voodoo dildo and what had happened.
The police man looked at her in disgust, and then cried...
"VOODOO DILDO, MY ASS!"

If there's one face I want to see,
so beautiful, so true,
one smile that makes a difference,
to everything I do.
If there's one touch I long to feel,
one voice I long to hear,
whenever I am happy,
or just needing someone near.
If there's one joy, one love,
from which I never want to part,
it's you, my very special love,
my world, my life, my heart.
Love you ^^
Yesterday was mad, never again am I walking up to school and back(it is 7 miles away from me)! I was walking through Carrick and out popped up a very hyper Naomi. She walked up to the school with me - keeping my distance cause she was ''too'' hyper. I was at the school to do coursework and stayed till around 2:30, I arrived at 10:30. Lois was in the middle of Carrick with her mates, for the last day of school. I very contently looked for them on my way back, but as usual I didn't go to the place the person im looking for was ^_^ They were at the park for most of the day. When I got home my feet were dead (no wonder) and my shoulders. Oh well hehe. Oh am listening to the radio here and they say about LiveAid in Japan. I never knew LiveAid was anywhereelse in the world, just UK. It is on tonight I think, I'll watch it, although I do think it'll just be another typical fundraising concert.

I have been researching on the causes of the dissolution of ''X'' Japan. It turns out Toshi was at the root of it all, as he wanted to focus on a solo career. Toshi says that he had to be in a sad mood to sing Yoshikis Songs. Yoshiki and Hide-kun also say - ''we tryed to turn Toshi Deyama into Toshi of X''

I also read a article on the same website about the death of Hideto Matsumoto(aka Hide, above). He apperantly did not kill himself, well not on purpose. Guitar players use a certain technique to make their shoulders feel better,by stretching it in a certain way with a rope, which is what Hide might have done, but fallen asleep during it(he was drunk). The was many stories of Hide when he was drunk.
ok, time for Japanese lesson number 4 ^^

Junichiro Koizumi - Coolest PM in History??
 Scary?
It is not only for the Reason that the Japanese prime minister, Mr.Kuzumi, looks like Richard Geer. He is the coolest pm for many reasons. He recently, during his trip to New York, did the first throw at a Yankee Game -

Is it me or am I mistaken for Kuzumi to be almost 60!? Even George Bush finds it hard to pull of stunts like this, well, maybe it's just because Kuzumi is Japanese. He also says he was a X Japan fan, I don't know about you but I don't know many Prime Ministers that like rock. He is also very publically available, like Tony Blair. He visits alot of schools, does presentations etc. Wish this guy was our pm! Koizumi is quite possibly the coolest PM in the history of the world, with Churchill giving him a real run for the money.

| You're a GREEN Yoshi! You are someone who likes a relaxing day. Someone who can be lazy at times and not care what other people think! |
hehe My girlfriend Lois sent me a quiz - 'Which Yoshi ''R'' you?'. I was the green Yoshi as you can see :D
hmm not much to do tonight, later on me and my brother are going on Yahoo Chat too muck about on the mics hehe, which should be fun!

The temperature was very high today, don't know what tho. Here is todays basic happenings...
Before 9 - Had to bring up Duke of Ed equipment up for Big Joe(aka Bingham), what slaves are we!?
Registration - Just basic registration, were told by Julie that we would get are Reports at the end of school (yipee...not)
Periods 1&2 - Skipped the usual Re and Careers to do Music coursework, which actually was a good thing(no Re coursework done)*angel puppy eyes*
Periods 3&4 - Was meant to be in History but did Music Coursework again hehe. Mr.Evans certainly fixed my piece.
Periods 5&6 - HAHA was in Music so guess what...MUSIC COURSEWORK!
Lunch - Just stayed up in the area. The boys were tearing other boys we sleeve pockets off lol. Some of them got suspended *Ross cough*
Period 7 - Media Studies, just a quiz.
Periods 8,9 & 10 - I worked on putting a tune in my music coursework in the practise room.
Tomorrow will be like this as well hehe, MUSIC COURSEWORK!!
I've been thinking recently about ''What is the best Japanese film to be made?'' This is a hard question since there are so many lol, I myself would have to break it down into Genres -
 Samurai film Zatoichi, 2005 version.starring Takeshi ''Beat'' Kitano. I wouldn't actually call this the best Samurai film, but in recent times I would called it the best. Akira Kurosawa's films would be accounted as ''the best''
 Battle Royale, One of the most famous action movies in Japan. It rasied alot of questions about Japan, it also starred Beat Takeshi.
 Gangster film Hana-bi. Also starring Kitano haha, he is very famous lol.
 Dark Water would have to be my favourite Horror film.
 Spirited Away is without a doubt, one of the best Animation Films ever by Hayao Miyazaki. I enjoyed it very much, I also liked Princess Mononoke and Kikis Delivery Service. ^_^
Overall If I had to go for picking an actual Japanese film as the best, It would have to be Spirited Away ! ^^
As I said Yesterday todays Japanese will be numbers...*silence* truth is I couldn't be assed *laughs* sorry hehe.Here is alternative Japanese -
| ohayoo gozaimasu |

Why remake Japanese horror films??
There is a simple excuse for the Americans to remake Japanese(and other) horror films(and other genres). That excuse is that they are all so stuck up that they have to prove they can make these films better...which they certainly did not with the above!! Well Ring was ok, but I didn't like the rest. hehe Ring 2 was the movie I went to see with Lois on are first date *laughs* she didn't like it too!! The Americans are also lacking in new storylines, which could make them remake films. No offense to anyone that actually likes these films, but personally they are not for me! Dark Water(the American version) isn't out yet...might as well scrap it before it is too late! I hope the Americans don't decide too remake Ring verus, Ring O and all the other Grudge films before the Japanese verson(aka Ju on The Curse 1,2 and 3). The Curse was the lead up to''The Grudge''.
And now for todays news...
Started crap hehe, got abit better. Mrs.McClean was back today(are form teacher) and so was Mrs.Byers, who is our french teacher, it is good to have them back! Everyone was tired from Duke of Edinburgh. We had the french exam in the moring, which actually was pretty ok, I liked the exam. The rest of the day was pretty boring, went out for break. Ater break had lunch - wordsearch, then music - not much lol, just coursework. At lunch we had a duke of Ed meeting whic went well. Then after Lunch I had science, which in that we just watched ''Sweet Chicks'' or something like that, and too end the day with English, we had a quiz hehe. After school I had to go too Mrs.Glass(art) to work on my Contexual sheet, which I have learned loads by seeing her. Did not get back home till 7!!! lol Walked home :(

Final Fantasy Vii Advent Children will be coming out in about 2 months time, which is good. The developers, Square-enix, have been working on it for years and needed more time to ''change things'' - I think this means they needed to work over it again so they could bring Sephiroth back, for the fans. You can find more information on this fan site - www.adventchildren.net
I think I am meeting Lois tomorrow *yay*. Haven't seen her since not last Saturday, but the Saturday before that lol (First kiss back then hehe)
