次の段階へ。

edit: received 3 more photos from senpai!






Spot who's the Japanese, Korean and Singaporean.



これで4クオーターが一段落ついたけど、まだ気を抜けない…。後もう少しで春休みだ!
で、今回には日本語で書き込ませていただく(笑)
自分の感想を忘れないようにちゃんと語りたいな、と。ずっと先の笑い種にも。
でもできるだけあまり人に読んでほしくなくて…。
耳の痛い話しをするなんだからさ。どんだけ悲惨か知られたくない。
だけど、読めればそれでいいよな。

さて、本題に入ろうか。悔しいけど自分のミスを笑いたくなる。
楽屋に戻ったら、ベースの澤田さんがアバンギャルドに聞こえてたってニコっとコメントした。
何がアバンギャルドだよぉ。。( ̄ω ̄|||)
しかも危機一髪のところに(大げさに言うね)アタマに戻ったのも褒めてくれた。
その褒めてくれるのが不思議。
だって、その瞬間にアタマしか覚えられなくてよ。
別にトリオの技法なんじゃないよ。ワロタっ
ベース今何コードをひいてるかこっち必死に合わせようとしても合わせられないし(号泣)

当時の状況はあまりにも悲惨で苦笑いをするしかなかった。
だからアバンギャルド(!)のわけだよ。
審査官の先生たちも気付いたのだろうか。
最後お辞儀するときに瀬川先生が僕に向かってほほ笑んだとの記憶があるけど。
まあいいや、それより今度の課題として、止まらずに通したほうがましだ、、、と思う。

それに、ピアノ科のパクさんと楽屋でちょこっとおしゃべりしてて、なんだあ、上がり症なんだ。
いっしょだあ ^^;
でもパクさんは僕と違って、本番ではぎりぎり。
頭の中が真っ白になって何にも思い出せなくなる、これは最悪ぅ!
ほんとうに悔しく思うのは……
この3ヶ月以来の練習はこうやって台無しになっちゃったということああ゙〜あ゙ T3T
悔しい悔しい悔しい マジ即死したい。

やっぱ二人とも辞めようか。帰った方がいいだろうと、パクさんと冗談半分で話しを続けた。
どうせ才能ないし。でも中途半端で諦めて帰る、なんか、カッコ悪くない?
プロになる日までまだまだだよね。。。。
一緒にしゃべり合うと何となく気が楽になった。1人じゃないと分かってきた。

ちなみに、先週先生に「もし途中止まったら"現代音楽だから"などの下手な言い訳をでっち上げるよ」
とふざけるように言ったけど、ほんとうに実現して現代音楽になってしまったorz 
迷信だと言われるかも、だが今度はこういう冗談一切しない!!!
うん、今アバンギャルドのコメントを思えば、不意に吹き出しそう。。。

終夜

While most(?) would have known this word to be 「しゅうや」, there's another pronunciation~ Which is.. make a guess!

Love and eggs are best when they are fresh. Send love please.

Helllo. Who is Wii? William ah? :x I can't even reply the comment. I think in this aspect, LJ is still better pfft.

Anyway, I want to go Disneyland! I realise I have never been there during springs nor summers. And there was a discount! Not sure how much it was but the new one will start 8th July to 31st August. Only Y4900! No wonder people around me have been going!

I also discovered that there is a word call 中人 (chuu'nin) in addition to the family of 大人 (adults) and 小人 (kids of primary school age and below). According to the disney site, 中人 refers to secondary & high school kids and if it were pronounced chuu'jin instead of chuu'nin, it means "normal people with normal abilities". GAH. By the way, if 小人 were to be pronounced kobito, it means a dwarf or a pygmy. Funny hahaha. Sadly, i belong to the 大人 category already :<



So, that aside, I found a really spicy junk food here! Unbelievable. They never seem to eat anything spicier than sweet curry and now there's something that is so wickedly hot that i couldn't finish it all at one go!! Had to save it for another day :x


The legendary habanero chili. Only for maniacs.

One last picture for this entry. Gonna break down into parts to post the pics…
Havent had eggens for like millions of years! So I took two eggens this morning! YUMMM. They're so shiny.


I just revealed my inner otaku with this pic :x

The S words.

Bus drivers and train drivers in japan like to talk in ssSsSSSSsssSsSSs language. You know?

Like this: ohaygosssssssss. *mummers some ssss sounding incantations in between* goj'shsss arzamasssssssss. 

When they meant to say: ohayou gozaimasu *inserts canned phrases of announcements* gojousha arigatou gozaimasu.

Or.

This: *in a lazy and bored voice that mashes all the sounds together* tsug'waner'mkasssgacho. nrmak'ssgacho.

When it should be: tsugi wa nerima kasugachou. nerima kasugachou.

Yet another phenomenon: they speak so softly like they're trying to serenade us to sleep that it is barely audible over the roar of the running train. Not all trains or buses have recorded announcements or info screens okkkk! Granted, they might have been speaking the same old thing over and over again for days, months or even years that they become really sick of it.

But seriously, they slur their words too much! Sometimes important messages like an announcement for a delay in train or change in platform just become unintelligible. Oh wait. Maybe it's just because of my incompetence that I don't understand them! oh nossss. But but… It's not like they have a speech impediment like a lisp or because they are drunk (or are they?) :3

i seriously wonder if the day when every syllable bleeds into one another, will they all become Parselmouths.

RealKakkoii

Recently, i overheard some high sch girls chatting among themselves using this:

リアルXXX 

A new addition to the pool of 若者言葉 (young ppl's language)?!

リアル (riaru) is the way they pronounce the English word, real.
By inference, i believe this is used when they want to mean hontou in the proper language, or maji, yet another older, casual word. English's equivalent would be really

The phrase which i heard was リアルかっこいい (riaru kakkoii) which means really hot (guy), further abbreviated to just "RK" (pronounced "arukei"). One of those KY language. Like in phone messages or when they just want to be cryptic to annoy their parents lol.

You can mix and match riaru with other words too! Like kawaii (cute) or busaiku (ugly). Wait... won't that make RiaruKawaii "RK" too?

Have fun pointing out hot guys and whispering RK to your friends!

Got sale?


Every time I pass by Parco at Millenia Walk with g, I can't help (if i am in a good mood) but sing this little ditty. Or he'll ask me "sing?". Guess we can't see this in sg when there is sale at Parco?

Paruko ara~
Paruko ara~
Ara ara ara ara
Paruko ara~

The commercial song is actually very clever coz it plays with japanese words. In a simple and effective way. Plus the song sticks in one's head. One very good live example is me, after listening to it on tv for weeks =_=

Paruko = Parco in japanese

Ara = oh my! wow! oh my goodness! (coz koala discovered Parco has got sale!)

Combining the ko from paruko and ara you get...
Koara = koala

Hence the koala bear character in the advertisement.
Very cute right???
Now go spread the song!
