*random rambling mode: ON*

Gyaaa, what's up with this Jin vs Tego rumor & especially the icon wars going on in both kattunlove and news_jpop these past 2 days! It's only a funny/silly rumor to be laughed at, so just stop it already! >_<

And no, I'm not taking sides, coz I love both of them for their beautiful voices ♥
That's my greatest weakness by the way: I adore anyone (cute or handsome alike) with GREAT singing voice! ^^

Confession: I'm addicted to karaoke too much lately, it's not healthy!
I just had one with Vero today (YES, AGAIN!)! xD Doremido is 50% off on weekdays between the hours of 10am to 4pm, so we wanted to take advantage of that.

Oh! The nyonya lunch set at Sing Sing Ramen is pretty good! The set consists of small ramen (you can choose whichever taste you like), rice with either shirashu or something else (I forgot what the choices are), yaki gyoza (not pictured), 2 flavors of mini ice cream (not pictured), and free refill of oolong tea / ocha.



I told the Doremido staff today to download new songs to their DAM machines. I even gave them the list of songs (and song numbers I got from ClubDAM) I especially wanted them to download (hint: KAT-TUN's newest album! :D). I hope they'll do it soon ^^

*rambling mode: OFF & goes to bed*

Yes, really! （＾○＾）

That's what I amー♪! (＾∇＾)

It's been raining for an hour now and I'm listening to KAT-TUN's newest album, Break The Records. It feels good, the sound of rain combined with Jin's sugoi voice! (I purposely ignore the other 5 members! *lol*)

Before 2009, I always karaoke in the regular places (NAV, Happy Puppy, even Inul Vizta :P) with non J-music-aficionado friends. Of course, I mostly sang English songs, coz those places don't have J-songs! (And I wasn't really exposed to Jpop much before)

So after the discovery of Doremido with caramichi last Dec 2008, I have since become a regular there that the staff knows me by name! xD Since March, nefretiriii and I had done it every so often (like twice a month). Until now, we haven't found a better place than Doremido, although they're missing J-songs from mid 2006 - mid 2008.

Last weekend, utaoutao was in town, so of course we had to have カラオケ night! Too bad the dinner at Manpuku wasn't as good as my first two visits. A friend of mine later did tell me that Manpuku could be a hit or a miss. Oh well. Better luck next time.

A memento from our Japanese night!
Myself, nefretiriii, utaoutao, and Vero at Manpuku, before heading to Doremido ^^



As always, my peace sign is so faaaarrr from being Japanese style! >_< Not genki enough!!! ¬_¬ Must.... practice! *lol*

Time flies too fast! It's already past the third week of March O_O

21 March: Happy 3rd Birthday, Twitter!
22 March: Happy 3rd Anniversary, KAT-TUN! (therefore, a Jin avatar! xD)

Before caramichi moved to Singapore for college, we wanted to enjoy ourselves with everything Japanese. Hence we had all you can eat lunch at Poke Sushi and 3-hour karaoke at Doremido.  In truth, we both were still recovering from the flu virus, so it was a pretty funny sight in which my brother laughed at: we both sang with coarse voice & blocked nose due to sinusitis, sneezed and coughed every once in a while, and flipped through the songbook in an attempt to read the dreadful kanji o_O All at the same time, just like twins! *lol*

I'm still craving for more karaoke, so I'm gonna drag another friend to Doremido next week or so ^^ And of course I will try the karaoke place hemisofia went to last weekend when I go to Singapore next month or so.

*:~~☆~~:*:~~☆~~:*

I really love the all you can eat lunch at Samudra Shark's Fin, Mulia Hotel. For less than Rp. 70,000++, we can have so many selections of yummy appetizer, soup, dim sum, main course, dessert, drink..... and of course, as many crabs as I can take xD The deep fried crab with salt & pepper, the steamed garoupa fish, and the asparagus tofu with crab roe soup are to die for! :9 My mom, her 3 guests, and I just had a lunch feast last Friday. They didn't even charge us for the leftovers (and yet so many of them, coz we ordered too much :P).

Apparently not enough crabs, the next day my friends and I had seafood dinner at Pondok Latansa, Kelapa Gading. Cheap seafood, yummy taste, couldn't ask for more! As we are crab lovers, the seven of us ordered 4 portions of large crabs :9 I 'm really crab-fully satisfied this week! xD After the seafood feast, I tried the green tea shot at Cafe du Chocolat. Love it lots!

Computer got virus attack last Sunday early morning! >_<
In truth, it was my fault. I wanted to search for mIRC keygen & I deliberately disabled Kaspersky when I downloaded the keygen. Turned out, it was a trojan and it's already too late when I activated Kaspersky in an attempt to clean it. The virus already spreaded and even disabled my Kaspersky & some other apps. I tried to restart, but it wouldn't enter Windows, wouldn't enter safe mode, and kept on restarting itself. Frantically, I called my good friend in the US. He told me I got boot sector virus! Eeeep >_<
I sent it to my cousin (who works in IT) that afternoon. I don't understand hardwares, so it's better if I don't try to fix it myself for it might get worse.

*sigh* 2 computer mishaps in less than 2 months! @_@ I just hope my cousin can save it without reinstalling XP *prays hard* I don't want to go through the pain of reinstalling all program files & restoring all the settings & data one by one all over again! A week of doing so had only taken me to 70% done. Before I could continue, I already had to have it fixed yet again.
