What is life

It's 3 am and I've just paid for my El Halcon/Revue Orchis (Star 2007-08) DVD.

If I have somehow miscalculated this and don't have enough money to buy Nijinsky next month I don't know what will happen.

I should really get a job.

Anyway, can I just have the new shinies now please? *3* Can't wait~

Takarazuka: My shopping list

I should be doing this even less than the previous post...

My bank account would feel better if I just called this a wishlist... )

There will be more when I have time. Now I shall get a grip and close all the Zuka-related tabs on my browser and start doing the job applications. ("Hello, I am a 19-year-old girl with basically no previous work experience. I like Takarazuka. Can I work for you?")

Takarazuka: List of things I own

Can you tell that this isn't what I'm supposed to be doing?

My collection is still relatively small... I want more things! )

Bien sûr nos jardins sont fleuris, Bien sûr nos femmes sont belles et puis...

I swear my heart is going to burst with too much emotion... I need more Zuka goodness! (Or maybe less... I wonder if this fandom is actually bad for my health...)

1. I really need to own more Chigi-related things. If anyone has got any recommendations of the shows she has been in I'd be delighted to hear them! I don't have too much money to spend on DVDs so I'll have to consider carefully what I'm going to buy... (And there are still about a million Mizu DVDs I want to own, too!) ...I also think that I'll have to write Chigi a letter... But it makes me nervous to write to someone who I adore but who doesn't even know I exist!

2. I'm seriously in love with the Roméo & Juliette musical! *-* I've been listening to the French songs a lot these past few days and the more I listen the harder I fall for this musical.
Right now my favourite songs are Vérone, La haine and Les rois du monde. My interest in studying French has taken a huge leap forward. I just keep asking myself why I didn't find this musical a year ago when I really needed the inspiration to study for my matriculation exam... Well, better late than never, I guess. Now I can study French to be able to apply for a summer job in Disneyland Paris (...I should write the application tomorrow...) and I really feel like starting a new blog in French. (Listening to these songs seems to have already affected my English... Gosh, I want to be fluent in every possible language!) AND my main point here might be that R&J is having almost the same effect in me as Elisabeth back in 2009... I absolutely must see the Takarazuka version, or preferably both of them actually. I'm dying to get the Yukigumi version on DVD (*cough*Chigi*cough*) and the fact that a friend of mine might actually get to see it live doesn't really ease my pain. Why don't I have the money to go to Japan? T-T

3. I really need to cut my hair. I now have an overgrown bob and I'm still not a hundred percent sure if I want to stick to the bob for a while longer or if I should just get an otokoyaku-like cut... Or actually I know I would really want to go for the otokoyaku hair but I don't know if it'll suit me... Life's hard.

4. Mom almost promised to take me to see Wicked now that they're performing it here in Helsinki. I've heard a lot of positive comments about it so needless to say I am very excited!

Okay, I'll stop this silly rant here.

C'est comme un paradis sur terre
Mais nos âmes elles sont en enfer
I just can't stop quoting these lyrics...

*edit* I really need to sleep but... I think I've fallen in love with Tani's face... *o* *was searching for some hair reference...*

I'm in love again

I have found my favourite current takarasienne. I'm obsessed. Again. And here I thought it would be impossible for me to get obsessed after Mizu. Well, if an otokoyaku makes me forget to breathe every time I see her on stage (only on DVD, sadly) I think it's fair to say that I've proven myself wrong.

Sagiri. Freaking. Seina.

Oh Chigi, it should be illegal to be as cool as you.

I just had the chance to watch Roget/Rock on with Zara and all I can say is that I didn't understand what was happening (read: what they were talking about) most of the time but what I did understand was that Chigi is my favourite current sienne. I remember the first time I spotted her in Russian Blue/Rio de Bravo. My first thoughts were "Who is this person with the sexiest voice since Mizu and why doesn't she appear in front of the camera more than this?" Then I saw the stage photos of Roget/Rock on on the pages of September's Graph and started to think that she could possibly be my next favourite. What I didn't expect was that I would totally melt on the floor when actually seeing her dance and act. Love! ♥

Thanks honey, now I'll have to spend the upcoming month totally poor. I must own this DVD, there's no way around it.

For some reason I feel like posting

It's 0:42 a.m., I've had a glass of red wine a few hours back and I've spent too much time stalking the [info]million_dreams  community, so please excuse me if (when) this post doesn't make any sense.

Ahem, so I got this sudden urge to start being more active around here and instead of doing something as uncharacteristic as commenting on other people's posts I decided to write one by myself. I meant to make this brief but that seems to be a bit too much of a challenge for me. If you stick around long enough to read any future posts (there will be more posts, I hope) you'll notice that I keep on rambling on and on without getting to the point. Like just now. What was I supposed to write about? Oh, right. I'm impossibly shy when it comes to start talking to other people online. I can keep writing the silliest things about myself on my blogs but when it comes to commenting on other people's posts my mind freezes completely. I can't help feeling stupid when all that comes to my mind when I'm supposed to write a comment is something like "Hi! I really love this post! I'm so happy to find another person who likes this or this as much as I do! You seem like a really nice and interesting person! Bye!" and even that's more than what I would write to someone I don't know. I don't mean to stalk anyone, but in my mind you are the coolest person on earth and all I can do is make myself look stupid by sending you a ridiculous comment.

Hello self-esteem, where did you go?

Anyway, I really feel like writing a mile-long entry about Takarazuka right know, including the story of how I became obsessed, all the Zuka-related things I own, the shows I've seen and the ones I would especially like to see in the future, but instead I'll just steal a few memes and encourage you to go check out my "official" blog if you want to know more. (It's the first link on the side bar. Be warned - it's totally random and a pain to read through.)

 

First/last meme )

I know I'm completely biased, thank you very much. Have another one.

Whoever came up with this deserves a medal )

And all that only took me about one hour and twenty minutes. Now, off to bed.

Selling two GACKT Munich tickets!

I’ve got two spare tickets to GACKT’s concert in Munich. PM me or comment here if you are interested.

I can sell them together or separatelly and can either send them via regular mail or give them to you personally before the concert. I hope to get my money back, so the starting price would be 60 € per ticket. If you wish to get the tickets directly from me just before the concert you can pay with cash, but otherwise PayPal is the prefered payment method. Should there be more than one person interested, first come, first serve, or the highest bidder wins! :)



Edit: The tickets have been sold! Thank you for your interest. I wish the best luck to all of you who are still looking for a ticket!

Starting my LJ life anew

Hello everyone!

As the title says, I am finally starting my LJ life again, after years of quiet stalking with no posting whatsoever. I’ve been updating on Blogger for a year and a half, but recently I’ve grown interested in LJ’s various communities and thus I’ve decided that I’ve got to make myself an at least semi-active account here too.

I am an 18-year-old girl from Finland and I am interested in a million different things. Lately I’ve been into blogging, nails, Takarazuka, japanese music, culture and manga, among other things. I love everything related to art, but sadly my CSS skills don’t match my creative mind. (So excuse me this boring layout!) I also love languages and besides my mothertongue (Finnish) I speak fluent English (though I fail a lot when I’m tired) and some French and Swedish and basic Japanese. I also understand some Italian and German and am hoping to improve my skills in all of the languages mentioned before and obviously wish to learn as many languages as possible.

To learn more about me and my very interesting life, please visit my other blogs at Blogger and my website. You can find them all in the sidebar, under Links. ;)
