yes, i need to update my journal... properly. the last time i wrote my journal was a month ago, i wouldn't call my previous one as a journal. so, let's talk about something here. and yay for randomness, since i don't know what to write anyway.

recently i'm so into downloading more vocaloid stuffs and other new songs which is sung by artists that i've never really put attention before. (yeah, all VOCALOID fans, go visit [link] if u haven't.) and one of my new favorite is toyosaki aki's songs. (she's K-ON!'s yui's seiyuu, if u don't know. ^^) i like her voice. it's so cute. i used to like hikasa youko / mio's ED (don't say lazy!) but now i can't stop listening to aki / yui's OP, CAGAYAKE Girls!. >3 also including her character songs. ^^ ah, and that fuwa2 time with her hoarse voice too (ah, also that one right after yui finished her so-called-training with sawachan. XD), i wish she sung the main vocal for that song!! ahaha, does anyone agree with me? :3

and still about songs, does anyone here likes aqua timez?? (haha, i do know some of you who like it, though, but it's always nice to meet new people into the same hobby / dragging people you know into it, right? XD) and yeah, it kinda surprise me and make me happy (of course!!), i've just checked the page of them in wikipedia. AND THEY WILL RELEASE A NEW SINGLE ON JULY 29TH, 2009, TITLED "Plumeria ~Hana Uta~"!!! I CAN'T WAIT FOR IT!! XD XD need more aqua timez songs~! (ah, and i've just realized, tsuki, noboru from their latest album is soo cool! >3)

as for nico2 artists, i wonder where i can get their songs? i really love their VOCALOID cover songs, so.. beautiful. and recently i like choucho's more than the others. ^^ IMO her voice is really clear and it's so into my taste. ^^ the typical cute-pop-singers type of voice and no huskiness like Yamai's in her voice, but yeah, i like it. XD (currently downloading her version of "Hajimete no Koi ga Owaru Toki"... Does anyone have miku's version of it?)

ok, and now is the time for the rest... um, well, i don't have a particularly strong interest on other artists as much as i have on aqua timez, though. nah, let's summarize it in a single paragraph. i'm still in love with abingdon boys school's "JAP". it's. cool. it's. awesome. i like it. i still haven't grown tired of it, but i don't play it as often as before. >3 and YUI's "again" is also awesome. she's always been one of my favorite artists and i'm really really glad that she's back from her hiatus! XD i don't really like the intro (especially the guitar part in the very very beginning, it doesn't suit the 'atmosphere' of the whole song.) next one.. Hearts Grow. any of their fans here?? i like their upbeat and cheerful songs. especially "Sora", which is the OP song for Birdy the Mighty DECODE. i wonder when will they release their new single / song? :3 hm, another one is megurine luka's Tower (i did mention about VOCALOID stuffs in the beginning, but haven't talk about it for even a bit, huh, other than the cover songs?) i like it. her voice here doesn't sound very digital. XD (because, well, her voice in double lariat and saigou no jouou, 2 of my favorite songs, sounds soo digital. ><

last, this has nothing to do with music... i think i kinda broke, er, no, cracked my tablet. XD haha there's a small crack on the top of it. OTL well, it's not disturbing, but still.. i cracked it. OTL maybe i should use some glue to stick it, huh? (no no, don't worry, i'm not gonna do it!! i'm not that cruel to treat my dear tablet like that. XD) seems like i really really have to take more care about my stuffs, ne? :3

well then, i'm running out of topics~ see u later in my next post! >3 ALL HAIL RANDOMNESS!

edit: because i've just realized that i have lost my touch to draw guys and i need more practice. so, i decide to open 5 slot of free sketch requests (open for male characters only. i'll draw ur OC or any fanart u want.).

ah, and before u request something, just to let you know, my sketches are very very sketchy. here's the sample of it, so u won't be dissatisfied if the result is very horrible. [link] sketchiness may increase or decrease depending on my mood. XD

1. --> [link] --> her OC, *om/engkong* naryu.
2. --> [link] --> her OC, hyvleane.
3. --> his OC, michael.
4. --> [link] --> her OC, tsugaru.
5. --> her OC, colorante / colorpon. >3
