U - Sisyphus

My fanaticism for Shirota Yuu, or Shirotan began with Tenimyu. It continued with the various acting projects he's had big and small that I've had the opportunity to watch and enjoy (Samurai High School, Rookies, Rookies Sotsugyou,Team Batista and Koshonin among others). Now, he steps out of the platform of D-Boys and Tenimyu to pursue his solo singing career, going by the name U next month.





This is the PV of Sisyphus, one of the three songs included in his first single. The PV of the two other songs, U and Heart of Glass, also two epically awesome songs, are also available on YouTube in the same channel.

--It's been a while since Shirotan's wowed me with his voice. And these new songs are just giving me chills every time I listen to them. (~u~)

The song U is currently being used as the theme song for the JDrama Shitsuren Hoken, where Shirotan plays one of the lead roles named Kazuki Ayumu or Luke. This drama is currently airing, and I hope to find a subbed version to watch his acting prowess once more.

Off to Singapore!

Morning everyone!
I'm here at the NAIA Terminal with my family, spending waiting time at the Mabuhay Lounge (for passengers in Business Class). Our flight was originally scheduled for 6:15am, but it was delayed by an hour for "servicing" or something of the plane we'll be taking.

Not a problem, considering there's this wicked fast wi-fi connection and a desktop to boot. Hehehe.

So we'll be heading to Singapore this time around! It'll be my first time going there so it'll really be a new experience. I have my digicam ready to take as much pictures as I can (and remind myself to have my mom/dad take a picture with me in it xD) to capture the experience and share some highlight with you all when I'm able to.

So for now, I'll go update a few stuff while waiting for the boarding call, so hope to you again on Sunday!

HIGH SCHOOL YEARBOOK!

After 3 years of waiting it has finally arrived!!! T^T
My high school year book was in the works (curse the printer) for many many months and finally, we have it. There are still some errors but on the whole it looks wonderful.

News Here and There

Now, onto some random tidbits of information.

First is that I haven't really gotten to make decent blog posts both due to my laziness and work-related issues. And since it was the long weekend and much has already happened these past two days I think now would be the best time for such an entry, if only a teaser for things to come.

Two days ago I went with some of my family to Visita Iglesia out in the East part of the country, visiting seven different churches in the Rizal area. Some were quite interesting, if I daresay so myself.

Yesterday I spent the day with Kai, treating her to lunch at our frequent restaurant Teriyaki Boy Katipunan. Afterwards we visited a few churches close by for a mini-Visita Iglesia of our own. Then later on we came over to my place to spend some time waiting for people to come back to her place. Considering we haven't seen each other for more than a week this welcome day together was needed.

Tomorrow's Easter Sunday, and with it comes the traditional Egg Hunting! 8D It'll be loads of fun with candies and prizes galore. I'm looking forward to this more than previous years because Kai will be attending as well.

Plushies

I wanna share a picture or two of my friend Nikka's plushie of Echizen 

Ryouma in a Karupin costume. Ryoupin-kun, in short. xD

And earlier this evening my mom and I passed by Tickles in Greenbelt where I spotted the CUTEST hedgehog plushie!!!! I want it. ;A;

First Week at Work

So Makati's slowly becoming a more familiar place for me after having gone there for work with my mom this past week. I just finished completing my first week at OJT as a QA Analyst/Game Tester for Anino Games, and I have to say what a thrill it's been so far. I don't even keep record of the hours I spend there (yet), but one thing's for sure: I'm making every second count!

I may end up exhausted at the end of the day but it's well worth it, considering the fun I get to spend in the office. I get my own workstation and get to play games ever so often for work that it's awesome. Of course that's not to say I just play and play and play. I look out for bugs and crashes which isn't as easy a task as expected.

Coincidences

It was an interesting night driving home today. I just came back from taking Kai home and as I slowed to a stop just outside our house and honked the horn, I noticed that no one else was home, granted that it was already 9 in the evening. From my rear view mirror, I saw two sets of headlight approaching and signaled right to indicate that I was waiting for the gate to open.

As our house help finally came to open the gate, I check the rear view again and noticed that the first car also signaled right: my sister.

I drove the car to the inside parking space and set the gears to park, looking in my rear view once more to see my sister come in as well. And then moments later, my parents drove in as well! xDDDD

Coincidence of coincidence that we all came home at about the same time.

Shopping

So today my sister and I accompanied our mom to do the biweekly grocery shopping, and taking advantage of the trip I got to get my mom to buy me a few things, INCLUDING:

 A bag of good ol' Frooty Lollipops and

ARTEMIS FOWL: THE ATLANTIS COMPLEX

Finally, something to bring me back to my reading roots. Hahaha. xD

Practicum

Woot!
I have an OJT with Anino Games as a Game Tester. :3
It's going to be a lot of fun. :)
Will be going to school next week to discuss things with my Practicum Coordinator but things look okay. :)
