Song can't get out of my head...TT^TT

Super Junior *shakes head*. They makes some CATCHY songs. I can't stop listening to it, nor can I get it out of my head. I'll be going to school tomorrow chanting 'bonamana' over and over in my head or even out loud. I wonder if they'd ask what's wrong with me if I did that! XD

Super Junior and Lee Jung Hyun are some of the FEW that I respect in Kpop. I don't really like Kpop at all (if you can tell my many complaints) and I don't like American music at all. I've finally realized why I dislike them or I felt a strange dislike of Kpop. It's not the rapping or the style of dancing or bad quality or anything...it's the fact that THEY ALL LOOK THE SAME! I don't mean by features or anything, they look really different by those means...but they all have the same body type. Go look at SNSD, you can see that they all have the same body type! It's so weird...O.o

So I'm guessing these groups don't get popular if they don't have a certain body type. For the girls they're all voluptuous, some more than others, and for the men they're all muscular or semi-muscular and tall, but not too big or anything. Like an average muscular size.

But then you look at Lee Jung Hyun, she's not very voluptuous, and then Super Junior, they don't all look the same. There are some thin ones, some muscular ones, it's a variety. The fact that everybody has to be the same to do well makes me angry and that's why I don't like Kpop because the sales and audiences are too strict.

For America...well...I have yet to see a good looking man...at all...Most of the bands either don't take care of their looks enough, don't seem to try to look different (try a freaking INTERESTING fashion style for once). When they DO try to look different...they look really crazy and ugly and I would feel embarrassed to be watching one of their concerts. Like Lady Gaga. Then the people who DO look nice are stupid, bad singers, or end up doing something really stupid with drugs. There's another thing WHY DOES IT SEEM LIKE EVERY AMERICAN MUSICIAN IS DOING SOME KIND OF DRUG!? The only stuff I've heard from Japan (that's in the jpop genre) are stuff about drinking or smoking underage. So why is there such a big drug problem in America?

Well, then about American music...All of the pop music sounds the same to me...same for the ballads...and then the singers of pop all look the same to me, unless you're comparing JZ to Justin Beiber, of course they look different...but if there was another person their age and height they would look the same.

I can admit that there are SOME people who are interesting, have good music, but right now all the popular music just seems to be senseless rap about either love, abuse, sex, or something really boring and generic for American music.

The reason why I don't listen to any American music is mostly because I dislike the American accent when singing. Unless they somehow have a New York accent when they're singing, it's not interesting at all or good sounding.

Now...European music...A HUGE variety. Their clothes look different, but not too crazy, their accents if they're singing in English are really nice (and add to the singing style whatever their style is). So English doesn't annoy me, it's the accent (I HATE country accents, and the worst thing about that is that I live in the SOUTH where only few can speak proper English without a really thick country accent).

With all my criticisms of accents and the fact that I live in the South, you're probably wondering what kind of accent I have. It's American...but it's really weird...like some words I have a New York accent...but I've never lived in New York. And I think because of all the Japanese stuff I've been watching I can't pronounce my J's like everyone else...like I have a friend named Jojo and I keep saying his name like Zho-Zho...like a soft Sh sound. It's very weird...O.o When I say Japan I say Zhapahn...O.o

I've asked people what kind of accent I have, and they said they're not at all sure since it sounds like a mix of random accents...O.o

My friend says that she has a Northern accent even though its OBVIOUSLY country, she probably has the thickest country accent of anybody I've ever met. She said she lived in New York for a year and so now she has a Northern accent...SHE DOES NOT HAVE A NORTHERN ACCENT AT ALL. And if you tell her that she'll argue with her...so I asked several of my friends who knew her well if she has a northern accent and they were like 'No way! Definitely not!'...So I don't think she has one at all! XD

Ermm...well, I'm pretty bad at staying on topic! XD I was originally posting this to say that I'm probably going to get more into Super Junior in the future.

Ah! I just remembered! TVXQ/DBSK is under Avex...as well as the majority of my favourite singers (Alan, Maki Goto, AAA, Aural Vampire, Ai Otsuka, misono, globe, Every Little Thing, Acid Black Cherry, BoA, Daichi Miura, Gackt (WHEN!?), Jurian Beat Crisis, Ataru Nakamura, Tackey & Tsubasa, V6,....And Super Junior, also).

Okay, well...it seems that EVERYONE is under the Avex Label..no I'm exaggerating, but would like me to put down a list of the famous people in Avex?:

Amuro Namie
BoA
Back-On
Cyndi Wang
D
Do as Infinity
Every Little Thing
Exile
Gackt
Ayumi Hamasaki
hitomi
Janne Da Arc
Jonas Brothers
Koda Kumi
Miley Cyrus
misono
M-Flo
M.O.V.E.
O-Zone (Y'know Dragostea Din Tei? Numa Numa? )
Ai Otsuka
the Pillows
Selena Gomez
Super Junior
Ami Suzuki
TRF
Tackey & Tsubasa
Anna Tsuchiya
V6
TVXQ

Now...there are several famous American singers on there and you must be wondering why they're under Avex...well, I'm guessing that's because they'll probably be touring in Japan and need a label or something for that...I don't really know, but I hate it.

*laughs* Just watched the 'controversial' Miley Cyrus performance:

Okay, if it weren't at the KIDS' choice awards, I wouldn't care, nor would anybody else. BUT, it IS the Kids' Choice Awards, meaning there are KIDS there. Why the HECK is she wearing such short shorts (and no socks? XD)!? Her voice is REALLY annoying, too. Anybody can sing that song, I mean, it's not badly toned or anything (at least it's better than Taylor Swift), but it's REALLY annoying sounding, worse than Ayumi Hamasaki's. Except Ayumi Hamasaki's voice is actually really beautiful if you get past the annoying nasally sounds.

Then WHY IS THERE ARE POLE? I understand she has to be careful and hang onto something...but...why some random pole out of nowhere? And if I were in her situation I WOULDN'T BEND DOWN AROUND IT LIKE I'M POLE DANCING! I be using it to twirl around or like a buddy (you me buddy pole! Like hug! <333) but not what she did. Her dancing is too sexual, I've seen other dancing on stage (well, tons more, *cough* Morning Musume *cough*) that wasn't sexual. So there can be no excuse for 'how else could I dance without moving my hips?' Simple, you move your arms and jump up and down and wear cute clothes.

WHY ARE THERE NO CUTE AMERICAN SINGERS? Closest thing is Taylor Swift, but she's not at all a good singer, and I just don't like her, so she's ruled out. I'd like to see a singer go on stage in a poofy pink dress (that's a girl...O.o) and dancing all cutely in America. It's all such sexual brown stuff...American music reminds me of brown, dark green, and gold, stuff that you'd see in a run down hotel. Like brown and green looking...um dirty, and then gold because of the lighting. Well, I don't want to sleep in a run down dirty town.

Oooh! Speaking of music colours! XD

Kpop reminds me of silver and bright yellow with neon blue and pink AND lots of black, because it reminds me of dark, serious, but still pretty crazy music.

Jpop reminds me of baby blue, baby pink, yellow, white, cotton candy pink, red, gold, annnd some yellowish orange. It reminds me of sweet and calm things, and the ones that are hyper remind me of yellow bright things, and the ones that are dark and sad remind me of gold and blue with some white...like sadness...

Europop reminds me of orange, blue, tan, white, red, and gold because the music is very different from singer to singer and Europop reminds me of sunset skies and clean cities (Jpop reminds me of clear, pale skies, similar to europop).

Jrock reminds me of brown, gold, dark red, black, and peach because it seems very earthy to me and reminds me of sitting outside with a guitar or in a dark church (depending on if it's peaceful Jrock or visual kei).

Can't think of any other genres I listen to or are familiar with....O.o

Wow...this was a rather long post...O.o

Well, the point is that I'd like to listen to more Super Junior...and I like that song...Annnd...I still don't like Kpop, but I do respect some singers and I like some of the songs because they're catchy, and it's at least better than American music.

I was going to draw the 'new' version of Kiyoshi today...but I couldn't think of a pose. Did I already tell you guys about the new Kiyoshi or did I just tell my friend? Well, I was originally going to draw a picture of Kiyoshi, Hiroyuki, and the new character which is Kiyoshi's rival, and Kiyoshi is supposed to be shorter than all of them, and has a thin face, and I added in all this stuff that I liked in a man and that others seemed to like...but I ended up with a failure...It's like cooking something...like if you like chicken and chocolate...it's not gonna end up tasting good together, but it sounds like it might be good together.

So I'm going to either make Kiyoshi the same look (probably not) just much taller, or completely re-design him...

I need to do some polling...to see what kind of guys girls like...Going on what I THINK people like isn't working...>.>

So if you've read through this WHOLE LOOOONG post then props to you...but now I have to ask you a favor. What kind of guys to you like (if you're a girl or a gay male...O.o)? Like what would they look like (I don't want the personality, I already have Kiyoshi's personality down).

Now I gotta figure out how to make a poll picture...O.o

Also, anybody know the 'types' of guys? O.o

Okie...byezzorzz then...

New Members! O.o

Anybody else notice the huge wave of new members? It's all because they want to enter the NYAF contest...

But that I kinda makes me mad/sad...Because I HOPE they don't leave once the winners are announced, because that's just cheap! >:( If you're joining be sure TO STAY ON THE WEBSITE! I don't want to see all these new artists leaving suddenly...that'd just make me REALLY mad...

Well, I'm not joining the NYAF contest for that reason...and several others...Well, I can't think of anything, the fact that it's in OCTOBER just threw me off. Yeah, I know I can make it all Halloween-ish, but I really don't want to do that...>.> And my original idea doesn't sound as fantastic. It would've been a gothic lolita girl with a ton of accessories of anime characters and things that have to do with New York. Because when I went to MTAC I noticed a TON of gothic lolita or other people in fashion, or as their own characters. I thought that was really cool so I was hoping for this contest to come uuuppp...But I IT DOESN'T TAKE PLACE IN THE SUMMER OR SPRING! TT^TT

I've got nothing...>.> I could change the colours to make it halloween-ish...but the whole 'Fall' thing just completely throws me off...I could've also made a rave girl (there were a lot of people like there...or just that my friend who loves that kind of fashion kept noticing them and telling me).

Yeah, MTAC isn't NYAF...but I expect most people wear the same kind of costumes wherever you go. There's always going to be Narutos and always going to be that one person who dresses in their own style or character or something...

Fall and Winter are two times that I'd HATE to have an anime convention...so making the mascot happy...or anime-ish...will not help, at all. Summer is the time for anime style, Fall is the time for realism, Winter is the time for REALLY detailed semi-realism, and Spring is the time for simple semi-realism...That's how I see it in my head...>.>

The other reason is because I like everyone else's ideas better than mine! XD So I don't want to enter this year...but I might...And another reason is that I need to be a better artist or else entering it I will feel embarrassed (I enter the other challenges because...well, they're usually not gonna happen again and they're not that big and they're pretty loose).

And about writing some manga for theO (or MB)...I want to do my manga COSPLAY WARS...but they way it starts...is very hard to draw! XD

So I'm thinking of working really hard on a one shot...but I don't like any of my ideas (and I feel like doing a shoujo manga...and only one of my ideas is a shoujo manga).

Well...time ta go figure something out...>.>

Lee Jung Hyun!! *head 'splodes*

LEE JUNG HYUN!! Her voice is beautiful, she's beautiful, and never seems to age. She's already jumped up to be my 3rd favourite singer...maybe more...we'll see...O.o

Speaking of favourites (COMPLETELY OFF SUBJECT) Gocchin's mom died (in January). This is actually news that I learned...well...when it first appeared on wiki (I check wiki everyday of my favourite singers...but sometimes I forget about some people). I really feel bad for Gocchin...her brother gets arrested, her mom dies, what else? Her puppy dies! NUU!! PLEASE DON'T MAKE THAT HAPPEN! HER PUPPIES ARE SOOOO CUTE! TT^TT

So Gocchin's been doing nothing...I mean...hasn't released anything (she's probably very busy and distraught).

Now...Lee Jung Hyun's music is sooo catchy!

Let's see if anybody recognizes this song:

For those of you who don't know, it's the original version of Honey by Cyndi Wang (and there's a vocaloid version of that, I think). So the song was originally called Summer Dance and was Korean. I like Lee Jung Hyun's the best, though.

Then I got this song stuck in my head all day (which I really loved, but I wanted to dance so badly when hearing it):

It also reminds me of my project in art. 'cause the video is all '70's-ish and our project is to make a '70's-ish picture like Peter Max's:

External Image

*cough* Profile *cough* Does this not look like my fortes? But I'm not doing a picture with a profile- le gasp! My picture is of the top of the head of girl and circles are coming out of her eyes and wings out of her head.

We had two draw three different pictures that we might do. My other two were a profile head coming out of a chrysanthemum, and the other one was the profile of a girl with headphones like SF-A2 Miki's. My teacher liked all of them...She said that I should do another one...and I asked her if she really wanted me to do another one and she said 'Well! They're all so good!' She said that after I did the sketch...I guess she was implying that I did the sketch REALLY fast...

She said it should takes us a while to do our project...and I kept looking at mine...I already started with colours and was almost done with the circles...Soooo...I'm afraid I might finish tomorrow...XD

I LOVE the '70's!! ^ ^ And I like the '90's/'80's (like the early '90's is the stuff I like)...and the '60's...>.> Annnndd....'50's...XD Okay, I like a lot of years. But they had such great styles back then! Today...I don't like America at all...I mean, the culture is...ick....>.> I was okay with it back then, but...it just drifted. Then you have countries like Japan and South Korea who've taken those good 'ol days and created a new music and styles from that. So that's why I like those cultures so much more than America...

BUT COME ON!! TT^TT LOOK AT THE YEARS THAT WE LOST:

External Image

I mean...look at those clothes...They look awesome! And everybody had awesome hair. I mean, AFROS!? FEATHERED HAIR!? Seriously THE BEST hair cuts...And sunglasses were really cool....(still are)

External Image

And then '50's...THEY HAD AWESOME HAIR STYLES IN THIS TOO!! TT^TT I love their short hair styles...I want my hair like that...but I'm afraid I might look really weird...O.o

I can't find any good pictures of '90's or '80's fashion...But the parts that I liked were their colorful clothes and shiny plastic-y jackets and just their cheesy kinda look that made them look really nice.

No it's just...ugly stuff like Lady Gaga:

External Image

I mean some of the stuff WOULD look cool...but...I dunno...I guess it would only look cool in anime or something...or as a form of art, but not dancing, and DEFINITELY not in those poses....O.o It looks so uncomfortable...I watched her at...ermm...the....Grammy's (I think that's what they're called) AND SHE SCARED ME!! Not because her music or voice or anything was intimidating, but how her costume was...it was really small around her buttox part...and...it kept moving like a box...it didn't look safe and I DOUBT she was wearing underwear...TT^TT

Oh! We've been learning about Romeo and Juliet (actually Shakespeare in general) and...I kinda like it...I mean, I REALLY hate my teacher...but that doesn't mean I have to hate Romeo and Juliet. I always thought it was cheesy...but...now that I actually know what it's about, it's not really cheesy (if you think of it the way I think of it ) What? I'm talking about thinking of it like a manga...Like Juliet is Princess Emeraude and Romeo is Howl...in my mind...XD Well, at least characters like that...I feel like making a manga of it...like a really short one...I mean, one shot! XD But there's already a manga or anime of it, isn't there?

I WANNA READ COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO!! TT^TT AND watch the movie again AND watch the rest of the anime...Speaking of Gankutsuo...my brother told me that it was good and he WATCHED IT ALL. And he said he HATES the anime style BUT HE'S WATCHING HIGURASHI NO NAKU KORO NI...He needs to stop being such a hypocrite...his favourite movie is an anime, I LOVES (or used to love) Berserk...but he mostly like masculine manga...sooo..

Darn...now I want to watch more of Tokyo Magnitude 8.0...TT^TT Because we're watching The World Trade Center in social studies and it reminds me of Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 ('cept Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 is better)...It's the movie with Nicolas Cage...I really don't like Nicolas Cage, he's been in too many bad movies that I can't stand to see him in a movie...>.>

The movie is pretty random...I mean, there's things with meaning in it...but they all happen pretty randomly...

I'VE GOTTA GO!! TT^TT

BAKKWO!! *n*

That's a fun word to say! I'm listening to this song:

Lee Jung Hyun's Bakkwo...she's sooo beautiful and her voice is sooo pretty! ALL OF HER SONGS ARE AWESOME!! O.O

Anyways, that's not the reason why I'm posting this! XD

I FINALLY INSTALLED MANGA STUDIO ONTO ME TABLET!! I finally found the disc, then I installed it! ^ ^

So I can finally start making some manga! ^ ^ YAAAYYY!! Time ta go play with everything (which I never actually did when I had it before!)

O.O Manga Studio...O.o

My dad went on a short trip so that he could go to a business meeting thing and he took my (my mom's) laptop so I'm on the DELL...Or our big old computer. And I installed Manga Studio a LOOONG time ago on here...but then I lost the disc. And every time I tried to get on it ever since I lost the disk it never worked...But I just got on today and IT WORKS! O.o

So...I'm thinking of somehow transferring it onto my laptop like I did with photoshop...except with photoshop I had the disc...with Manga Studio, I just have the program...So I don't know if I CAN transfer it...but I'll try!

And if I DO transfer it okay then you can expect ACTUAL MANGA from me...and my ACTUAL MANGA I mean by making manga that's long, has proffessional-ISH (-ish, emphasis on that since I am not very good at drawing, but there are pretty tones to play with to make it look better) pages, and is actually interesting to read instead of a build up how I WANT it and more of it being now.

I've also been thinking more about panels and angles and stuff...What stuff creates more emphasis...So when I do my pages I'll be sure to concentrate on this stuff...but it might end up taking a while to do each page that way...

And hairbrushing...

Is overrated...

Really! I haven't brushed my hair today and it looks really good! Like fluffy 'n stuff like Charlie Bucket's:

External Image

I like that version of Charlie Bucket better than the newer one. Partly because of his hair (partly because he looks like Flapjack), but mostly because he has a nicer face and seems more innocent. The other kid is innocent, but I can seriously see him blowing up a building and then laughing evilly...he has an evil smile kind of look...O.o But he can make his eyes twinkle...so it looks a bit weird...O.o

I have very fluffy hair! X3 I realized this from...what was it...Sunday I think. I hadn't brushed my hair that day (so it looked like Charlie's!) but when I DID brush it it got fluffier...O.o My hair also looks weird long...and I point that back to the fact that it's FLUFFY, so it looks really weird when longer...O.o Please don't think of fluffy like an afro or something! XD Let me put it into perspective...it's very straight, it's just so thin that it sometimes pushes the other hair around and fluffs it...It's really weird...and I'm not exactly sure WHY it get so fluffy when I don't brush it...O.o But when I brush it after a shower it's REALLY straight...like...Sadako straight ('cept it's short so...) Sadako!!! (I don't know her English name, I forgot it...XD):

External Image

Yep, yep.

Ermm...what else to say? Oh! My friend returned my beloved volumes 4 and 5 of Chocolat to me, but volume 4 was BROKEN! TT^TT Like the pages in the middle are...well...not at all touching the back...so you can completely open the book...I'm going to have to glue it back together...And the two chunks of pages are separated so if you close the book it will never be completely like a book...TT^TT

So sad...She said it was perfect when she got it back and then she got mad at me...buuut...Well, blaming somebody doesn't solve anything, so I can just glue it back together. At least it's not as bad as some of my Sailor Moon books (but they're REALLY old...I got them back in 2000, but Chocolat I got this year).

K-pop and J-pop...Hrmm...K-pop doesn't seem very nice. If a band isn't TOTALLY K-pop then it won't do well. There's this K-pop band I like called I-13, but they only released one album and then were disbanded...Why? Because it sounds too much like Jpop...>.> What the heck? J-pop seriously sounds like ANYTHING! I've never heard of a K-pop sounding J-pop band not doing well...In fact...what was that singer called...? Oh! Yeah! NAMIE AMURO! SUPER FAMOUS JPOP SINGER (actually it says Japanese Hip Hop on wiki, but hip hop and pop I consider the same thing...not that it is, but I don't like saying it's not). She sounds TOTALLY K-pop except for the fact that she's Japanese...and singing in Japanese...BUT SHE'S REALLY POPULAR...

So K-pop needs to be a BIT more looser. J-pop has bands like AAA who do songs that are like different genres of music, but still has a jpop feel to it and I consider that JPOP. Every band should be able to do well and should not HAVE to stick to one genre. That's just...boring...

Oh, but there ARE really good popular Kpop singers, I don't mean to bash Kpop...I just got really mad when I saw a youtube comment of another Kpop group that didn't do well saying something like 'They didn't do well because they sound like Jpop. If we wanted to listen to Jpop we would, but we want to listen to Kpop.' WHY CAN'T YOU HAVE THEM TOGETHER!? HARMONYYYY~!

So genre is no excuse for a band not doing well...and fans shouldn't hold up their genre to them. Just because they SAY Kpop doesn't mean they have to sound EXACTLY like that genre...

Well...I'm done ranting...

I forgot what else I was going to say! XD I always get interruptions when I'm posting something that's long...It's either dinner or my wandering mind...like I go onto a new tab and I completely forget I was typing something! XD
