Bugged PCs and Fangirl Afternoons

My PC got the stupid Yahoo Messenger worm. The one that sends incoherent stuff to other people on your messenger list. That's it. I'm through using YM. Thank God MSN Messenger let's me access my contacts. You people would get to see me with that. I do not want to reformat my PC again after this.

It is a good and sunny day today though. Perfect day for relaxing. I'll just let go of all the anxiety this problem is causing. At least I can still use my PC in the meantime. I'm just waiting for my dad to reformat this for me today. (Note: done reformatting! YATTA!)

Speaking of fun afternoons, yesterday was another blast. And since I'm writing about it in my LJ right now I shall just post the link here so you can read about it over there. I've suddenly gotten particularly lazy.

Not related to any of this but Heroes Season 2 Episode 1 & 2 ROCKS!!!

Ranting Fangirls And Sleepless Nights

This took place this early in the morning. I have a lot more interesting conversations with Apa but I'll reserve those for another day when I actually have more time to pore over them and just laugh my head off. It's 6.45 in the morning in this happened around 5.45. Such early birds aren't we?

apatots_26: nicole. baka ma-late ako ng punta jan. kagigising ko lang eh. (I might be late in coming over there. I just woke up)
nikki080488: ok lang (that's ok)
nikki080488: hapon pa naman pasahan (the passing of the paper would be in the afternoon)
nikki080488: good morning
nikki080488: hehe
apatots_26: yehey! inaantok pa kasi ako eh. (I'm still sleepy)
nikki080488: gising na gising na ko... jeez i'm turning into a morning person (I'm wide awake)

apatots_26: insomniac...
apatots_26: ka na. (you're an insomniac)
apatots_26: you miss your pc too much.
nikki080488: or i could just be a workaholic... i guess it's a little of both... and yes i do miss my pc a lot
apatots_26: wait lang cr lang ako. (wait i'm going to the bathroom)
nikki080488: go
apatots_26: hhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaay.. she-Et.. gusto ko namang manood ng DVD... (I want to watch DVDs)
apatots_26: ayoko na laging nasa pc nagttype.... (I don't like being in front of the pc and just typing)
nikki080488: hay ang dami ko na din gusto panoorin... (I want to watch a lot of things too)
apatots_26: kaya nga eh.... it's either dvd or fangirling.. hehe. (I know / I agree)
nikki080488: hehe
apatots_26: wait lang.... edit ko lang tong commentary ni ge. (wait, I'm just editing ge's commentary)
nikki080488: hehe yung kay meg inedit ko din (I'm editing meg's as well)
nikki080488: hehe
apatots_26: naloloko na ko wala pa kong commentary.. (I'm going crazy, I still don't have a commentary)
apatots_26: hehe.
nikki080488: ako din (me too)
nikki080488: ako din (me too)
nikki080488: :))
apatots_26: yey! yey!

I do not want to edit another article for the rest of my life. Okay now that would be a problem because I want to be an editor for a magazine someday. XD Stress... stress... stress... let it be Thursday already. Let all of this be over. I want my eyes to return to their normal size (i.e. no longer bloodshot and itchy from staring at the computer screen all day), my sleeping habits to return to normal (I need my 8 hours of sleep!), my desk to be clean because right now it's swimming under piles of papers and yes I want to fangirl!

Here's another conversation about an hour ago. It's 8.30 already. We're a crazy pair I have to say

Apa: nicole check mo toh. nakakaloko si ohno... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XTL5uV_kB

IU (nicole check this out... ohno looks crazy)
Nicole: sige (ok)
Nicole: yung audience tawa ng tawa dun sa "girl version" ni ohno (the audience were laughing so hard at the "girl version" of ohno)
Apa: kaya nga eh.. mejo disturbing siya pero nakakatawa... (I know... a little disturbing but very funny)
Apa: parang gago yang si ohno jan.. (ohno looks stupid there)
Nicole: hahaha
Apa: diba? parang gago.. lasing tapos biglang sasayaw. (doesn't he? he's drunk then he suddenly goes dancing)
Nicole: hehe
Nicole: kakkoi
Apa: galeng shet! (great... shit!)
Nicole: as always
Nicole: ang galeeeennnngg (so goooood)
Nicole: hehe
Apa: siyempre!!!!!! hehehe. (of course!)
Apa: talang ayaw magpahuli eh no, nanood pa rin ng ohno dance... (I really don't want to be left behind... I'm still watching ohno dance)
Nicole: pagkatapos mo ko pagalitan kagabi (After you got mad at me last night)
Apa: hahaha!!! eh siempre... sabi ko... hmmm.. ako kaya... (of course... i said... hmmm... I am...)
Nicole: ikaw kaya ano? (what do you I am?)
Apa: ako kaya pag nanood ako, pagagalitan rin ba ako ni nicole? (What if I watched would Nicole get mad at me?)
Apa: hindi siguro, ako lang mg crush jan eh. (Probably not because I'm the one with the crush on him)
Apa: hehe
Apa: may nadiskubre ako sa'yo.. gusto mo yung magaganda yung buhok.... (I discovered something about you. You like guys who have nice hair)
Nicole: ano? sino? (what? who?)
Apa: ikaw.... si jun, maganda ang buhok.. si aiba rin... si nino rin.. si tom rin... (you... there's jun, who has nice hair... aiba as well... nino as well... tom as well) - tom's not an actor he's a crush I have in school <3
Nicole: it's all about the hair
Apa: si nikki panga.. si edree weird, ikaw buhok ako old guys that look young... si tets MAMA ang gusto... (nikki likes jaws... edree has wierd taste... you like hair... I prefer old guys who look young... tets likes scary looking guys (i.e. gangster looking))
Nicole: don't remind me napilitan akong tumigil kagabi habang nagbabasa ng iliad dahil yung solo na ni aiba (don't remind I was stopped from reading the Iliad because it was Aiba's solo that I heard)
Apa: hala! nako. o sige. hehe (oh no! okay...)

She loves Ohno. She's one of my few friends that I got into Arashi. XD She's absolutey gaga over Riida and Sho... more on Riida but she's in love with Sho's hipbones... HAHAHA

You see I was watching the Iza Now concert with her and Meg last Thursday. But we weren't able to finish it because I wasn't done downloading the second part. Anyway... seeing Riida's solo in that concert made her fall in love with him more and she was chastising me for watching the concert last night (I had it playing in the background while I was editing articles). But I wasn't really watching it. I just wanted to hear their voices. But as I was saying above. I sort of stop midway through reading the Iliad because Aiba performed his solo... XD What can I say I get distracted easily by pretty things? LOL

Metrosexual?

Metrosexual: young straight stylish urban man: a young, straight, sensitive urban man who is unashamed to enjoy good clothes, stylish living, the art of decorating, and improving his personal appearance (informal)

Apa pointed out a few days ago that I was into metrosexual men. Let's put that into context. We were watching an Arashi clip when they stopped by last Friday or was that Thursday? It always seems to rain when Apa comes over... HAHA

Anyway, we were talking about MatsuJun (Jun Matsumoto). She knows I like the guy. She knows I LOVE Nino... LOL Okay I keep getting sidetracked, this is like me watching Letters From Iwo Jima earlier today and when Ohmiya came up (out of Nino's mouth nonetheless) the fangirl in me couldn't resist but squeal.

As I said, she pointed it out that I was into the metrosexual type. My response to that was something like: "You're right. I'm not really into bad boys..." I like my boys clean. HAHA I'm not really into the whole scruffy thing. I love the sweet, boy-next-door types. Metrosexuals? Probably. I have pictures to support my "type", if that's what we're calling it anyway.

Exhibit A: Jun Matsumoto


Since we were talking about him, MatsuJun might as well be the first one on the list. This guy changes his hair so many times. It's crazy! He rocks it though. I believe he's the epitome of metrosexuality and I still love him for that. Yes, Jun-bait was rather effective wasn't it?!

Exhibit B: Orlando Bloom


I guess you can classify Orli as a metrosexual? Hmm... let me think about that. He's probably the only scruffy guy I like. He's the sexiest scruffy guy I know. HAHA Or I'm just being one hundred percent biased on this. I love the way he dresses. There's something so no nonsense about it. It helps that he's hot though.

Exhibit C: Masaki Aiba


Now here's the most adorable person I've seen! Yes I want him!!! I have grown an insane crush on Aiba. He's so sexy these days. His silliness works for me. Plus he's looking so fine these days.

Exhibit D: Toma Ikuta


He reminds me of a bird sometimes (sorry Nikki!) but he sure is fine. Yes people Hana Kimi and Nakatsu fever. Poor guy... Mizuki's going to break his heart, I just know it! Toma's an amazing actor. I admire him a lot for that. He is easy on the eyes which is a definite plus.

Exhibit E: Hiro Mizushima


At first, I did not want to admit that he looks like MatsuJun. But he does. And he's just as fine. Nanba-senpai rocks!

Exhibit F: Kazunari Ninomiya


Of course I had to save the best for last. Still reeling from my Iwo Jima experience this morning. Still imagining Nino as a father... aww... look at him trying to look all grown up with some stubble... gaah! Such a cutie! He has the ultimate look of a boy-next-door but has such a sharp and sarcastic tongue that it's well... surprising. Got to love Arashi's emo boy: Nino. He's my ichiban afterall.

I made an exception for Orlando Bloom didn't I? All of these examples are Japanese boys... yes my vocabulary is rather limited when I fangirl. I "stalk" people according to Mae. Well I wouldn't mind stalking any of these guys any day. Jeez... sounds so wrong doesn't it?!

Hmmm... now what was I supposed to be talking about in this post. Got a little err... distracted. Oh right. Metrosexuals... probably. I might really like them. Who cares if they dress a little more flashier than I do. At least they care enough about their looks. I like my guys clean... clean but not conceited. I think Japanese men, especially these idols do have to be rather metrosexual. Jun definitely brought that home with him.

I love this post. It gave me a chance to bask in the beauty of these guys... was I just looking for an excuse to picspam though? That's up to you to figure out.

So Be It

I created a livejournal account to separate my fangirling from this personal blog. I thought it would work out that way. I guess the line separating my "rediscovered" love for the Japanese culture (okay my love for Arashi, other JE boys and jdramas to be specific) and my "real life" seems to blur out on its edges.

The people I know find it bizarre. They can't really get why I'm so into this. Here you have a Filipina who was crazy over anything Western. I reveled in Orlando Bloom (okay I still do), Christina Aguilera, etc. Western movies were the only thing I'd watch.

I tried to shy away from the Asian culture. The invasion of dubbed Korean shows was too much for me. I can't stand dubs because I'd rather hear the real actors and actresses say their lines. I would rather have subtitles.

I found it all "baduy" and stuff. Pardon the term but when you grow up in my home you'd get what I mean. I just could not understand it. It was something so foreign to me despite of the fact that the Asian countries were closer (well duh) than the Western mindset I carried throughout most of my life.

Don't get me wrong I was into the Meteor Garden fever way back. Much to the amusement and slight chagrin of my father. He would not let me hear the end of it I tell you. I also had a brief affair with a few anime series but that was rather fleeting.

So what happened now?

I have no idea.

But I do have something to tell you guys: Wakarimashita or I understand.

I can get why you don't get it. Huh?! HAHA I understand that you won't get my fangirling. Am I trying to justify it? Yes. Looking for acceptance? Maybe. Forcing you to like it too? Definitely not.

I've decided to enter this on my own. Call it the Jun-bait (this whole thing started with HYD anyway). Call it whatever you like. I just got into it and I know this isn't some temporary thing now.

It's a great de-stressor for me. When you see me smiling rather foolishly that would probably be connected to Arashi or Hana Kimi or Yamada Taro. I've found a good source of happiness. It's a warm and fuzzy, sometimes a "kilig-driven" place.

Who knew I'd turn out this crazy? No one probably expected this, I was the self-proclaimed Westernized girl. I have shifted gears and turned completely around. Definitely no regrets. I'm having the time of my life right now. I've even gotten a few people hooked into a few stuff and that makes me happy too. Maybe I'm not so crazy after all.
