I'm off to Tahoe until Saturday or Sunday. Toodles!


Wednesday, December 13, 2006

Looks like a near all nighter tonight, if not all nighter.

But while I'm here, I might as well share something funny. Johnny's most recent Xanga entry links to the Wikipedia entry on Japanophiles, and there is this picture here.



No, my Taiwanese comrades, your eyes do not deceive you. That IS our ex-president, Lee Teng-Hui, dressed up as the manga character Edajima Heihachi. I am not even joking.

Oh, how I weep for my home blue party.

But at least I'm not a Taiwanese let's-declare-independence-and-get-nuked idiot from the green party. Whew.

Yeah, my party (KMT) is messed up, but your party is more messed up.

But yeah, our ex-president rocks, I know.

Back to Twelfth Night.

Check this out. Being a Christian vs. being a Christ-follower.

I don't agree with a lot of it, but much of hit home.

Which one are you?

I forgot to say:

I made chocolate mousse today and topped it with some caramel sauce and dark chocolate covered raisens.

Check it out.



Picture taken on my gross kitchen floor, but it's all good somehow.


This year I decided to share some of my favorite J-pop Christmas songs. Enjoy!



中島美嘉 「愛してる」
(Nakashima Mika "Aishiteru")

This is not only a favorite Christmas song of mine, but it's one of my favorite songs of all time. Mika's lovely voice singing "I love you, I love you..." is absolutely heavenly, and the chorus at the end "love, it's holy night, love, just me and you..." is absolutely breathtaking. ♥

安室奈美惠 「White Light」
(Amuro Namie "White Light" )

This is a really pretty R&B song with a nice beat and jingle bells. It's a slow, happy Christmas song, and one of my favorite slow songs by Amuro Namie so far. I highly recommend it. It's nice to drive along in the blistering cold with my windows down listening to this song~

2nd X'mas featuring dream+SweetS+嘉陽愛子 「希望の歌」
(2nd X'mas featuring dream+SweetS+Aiko Kayo "Kibou no Uta")

The cover for the original single is hideous, so I replaced it with this pretty SweetS one instead... even if it is a summer picture.. This was from two Christmases ago, back when SweetS was still active. This is a very pretty chorus song for all the Girl's Box artists, with some solos too.

BoA 「メリクリ」
(BoA "MERI KURI")

I couldn't decide between BoA's two Christmas singles (from 2004 and from 2006), so I am going to include both. This one is from 2004, a really pretty love song. Whenever I hear BoA sing ずっと ずっと 言いたくて / 付きあってくれて ねぇ ありがとう my heart feels a little sad tug. So pretty! ♥

BoA 「Winter Love」

This one is the newest single from BoA. It debuted at #2 (peak week) and is currently #16 in its fourth week of sales. It's severely underrated for such an amazing song. It kind of has an Every Little Thing ballad feel to it. The arrangement is gorgeous and has an amazing chorus. Favorite Christmas song so far this year... or is it the only one? WHERE ARE ALL THE CHRISTMAS SINGLES?

mihimaru GT 「So Merry Christmas -take 06-」

This is a fun upbeat rap song with a Christmas theme. Not a lot of rap artists (even in Japan) put out Christmas themed songs, so this is a rare treat from the awesome duo mihimaro GT.
