Northern Japan Earthquake Relief Fund

For anyone looking to make a donation to be sent immediately to citizen relief efforts in the most affected areas of Japan, please consider making a donation to the Northern Japan Earthquake Relief Fund.  The fund was set up by the Japan Cultural and Community Center of Northern California, and has already raised over $40,000, which will be sent over tomorrow.  The JCCCNC is a nonprofit agency, and I chose this fund to donate to because it was vetted by my daughter's Japanese school director.

Together we can help those affected by this tragedy.

*update* Almost $200,000 in donations received as of 3/20/2011.

Argh~not connecting +_+

Whelp, I've been trying to get on the Dears site to order the otoko matsuri DVD for 2.5 hours now, and I can't get through. @@~  I got through far enough to find the link to the order form, but the form's not loading. -_____-;;;   I guess this is what happens when 20,000+ 36,000+ Dears try to get 10,000 DVDs.  *massive server overload*  This is way worse than Ticketmaster! XD;

Well, I guess I won't be playing FFIV tonight. XD

Time to troll the internet I guess.....

*reload reload reload*

Edit:  OOookay, I've tried for 4 hours and can't get through.  It's time to call it a night.  Hope there's one left for me in the morning. ;___;

Touch the Gackt~




The latest daily scores on Touch the Numbers~  Gackt is on location, and something about BUNRAKu (small u so it fits on the screen instead of cutting off XDDD).  After-recording for Bunraku, right? ^^  Do you guys think he's in LA for the dubbing? :O  And is the location shooting related...?

By the way, how can you get less than 5 seconds on this game.  My scores are pathetic. XD;;;

Generic Anime Character meme~

Generic Anime Character meme stolen from excused_early 

Ouch, the truth hurts. T___T


I wish I could be like you...
You're a sidekick!
 

You're short. You've got mousy brown hair and glasses. Sometimes you get to be the comic relief or provide an infodump, but mostly your role is to be helpful and supportive to your tortured best friend. You're always going to come second in everything. Sure, this may seem like a bad deal, but at least you get to bask in your friend's reflected glory; and looking on the bright side, you're unlikely to be dead by the end of the series. Every hero needs a cheerleader for their final battle.

Which generic anime character are you?



Well yeah, even though I am short, mousy and second in everything, at least I LIVE. XDDD  *cheers on my best friend heroes*

My layout broke~ ;_;

I just noticed that my layout looked weird and was missing a few pieces.  I realized that the links to those images broke (I never uploaded them to my own site, oops XD;;).  So I have a temporary layout until I can fix it... I had that layout for over 2 years. ;__;  But I kinda like this new one!  The moon looks very cool~  Maybe I'll keep it.  ^^  The other layout could never display my archive correctly anyway.  BUT I really prefer to have a Gackt layout.  Hmmm~ 

Oh maybe I can just make a matching icon!  That may work. :D *searches for someone to bribe to make me an icon* XD

Music Station 2010.01.29 Gackt clip

I originally trimmed and uploaded this for Val, but I figured I should share!  On yesterday's Music Station, they showed a very short clip of Gackt's first appearance on Music Station, way back in 2000. ^^  You'll see Hyde's face pop up in the box in the bottom right corner~ it was his birthday the day of the show (yesterday), and L'arc performed Bless. ^^  And Ju-ken was there as support bassist for ベッキー.   Enjoy!

Edit: Sorry guys, the Youtube video was deleted. ^^;

"GACKT got broken!?"

Was working on the discography section of Eien no Yume (yes our site is still alive...barely...XDD;;) and went to Gackt.com for reference.  Have you guys seen the Discography section of the English language site?  

The blurb for Koakuma Heaven: 
"GACKT got broken!? It is a song filled with a playful touch that you have never listened before!! Damn crazy heroine girl tries so hard to do anything, yeah ♪"

Ahahaha, that gave me a good laugh~  Oh that damn crazy heroine girl...... XD

Okay, back to work. ^^

New Comm~Moon Moms

Posting here publicly for the first time in a loooong time. ^^;  For those of you who added me as a friend for my Gackt translations, thank you for not defriending me even though I haven't translated in years. XD;;  I've wanted to come here many times to say I've quit translating, but then I change my mind because I think "one day I'll come back."  Well, I probably won't be coming back~  But never say never, right? ^^  I just can't make up my mind. XD  For my flist, I'm pretty sure I'm here to stay. ^^

Anyway, today I'm posting to introduce a new community I created, gackt_moonmoms .  It's a community for moms who are fans of Gackt.  I know you're out there!  So if you're a mom, or an expectant mom, please check it out.  Membership is moderated, so please check the profile before joining. :D  Thanks!
