It's OVER

Love is OVER

OVER and Ai-ing Aishiteru PV

Let's forget about this Ryutaro's issue for a while, pretending like this issue were never happened, at least for one hour until I finish writing this review, shall we?


OVER PV

Refreshing is the best word to describe this PV. They don't wear over-the-top outfits, instead, they wear casual and normal outfits, and each outfit suits perfectly to every members. I definitely love the scenery. They don't use too many CG effects like they always did in their previous PV (UMP, Dreams Come True, Your Seed, Arigatou) and they shot it outside. It looks colorful and those different colors on their outfits don't make you dizzy because the colors are soft. The PV tells a story, and I really like this kind of PV. So, Yamada got dumped by his girlfriend and then he felt sad. He called his friends and told them about it, then his friends cheered him up by saying something like, "don't worry, there is still tomorrow. over." and "cheer up. We're here for you. Over." Well, I actually think that those "over" words are not really necessary, hahaha. Of course, Maybe they want to tell Yamada that his sadness will be over because he has friends, but I still think that those "over, over, over" part was kind of weird. Other than that, I really like the PV. 

My favorite part is when they were dancing in the mirror stage. I love the way their shadow were reflected on that mirror stage. It looks really awesome. And the scene when they were singing in a room, surrounded by slow-motion scenes... That one is cool too. Inoo-chan and Yuya gets more spotlights in this PV than usual. Anyway, the way Yuya says "Tsukaretendayo... Ova" is really sexy. His deep voice sounds naturally sexy without him even trying. Yamada looks really cute this time (or probably that's because I just watched Tantei Gakuen Q and in love so much with Yamada). Keito and Ryutaro don't get too much spotlights, although their parts in this PV is a bit more than in Arigatou. Among the other PVs, this one is probably their best PV so far, but they need to learn how to be fair splitting the spotlight, indeed. I'm talking to you, Johnny-san!

AI-ING AISHITERU PV

I'm not sure if we can call this video as a PV or not. This PV is more like a fanmade video. You can't even compare it to OVER because this PV is really.... not bad, but I think instead of calling it PV, we better call it a bonus video. To tell you the truth, I kinda like this PV. Especially the part where Yabu in it. He looks really cute, and when he sang his solo part "souzou dakejaa oitsukanai..", I literally smiled. He looks sooooo adorable, and his voice is just so soft. I really love his voice ❤ Btw, I understand now why there is no making-of-PV for this one because they took Hey! Say! JUMP's performance from their concert in Yokohama last March (if I'm not mistaken) and combined it with behind the scene of the concert itself. You can see all members of Hey!Say!JUMP equally. There are parts when every members saying "Aishiteru..." one by one, which is one of my favorites. It feels like ten pretty boys are confessing their love to you, hahaha. Okay, I'm just kidding. But seriously, the way they say "Aishiteru" were really sweet. I think that's all I can say about this PV. I like it a lot. Maybe I'm just being bias, whatever.

So, I'm done. I love both PVs, but for some reason, I like Ai-ing a little bit better than OVER. Because of the fairness, maybe. Btw, I love every track in OVER single: OVER, Ai-ing Aishiteru, Born in the Earth, Screw (BEST) and You Got More (Seven). So far, none of their singles had disappointed me, which is why my love for this Japanese boyband keeps growing.

See you in the next entry. :)

I'm feel like just got a heartattack

When I read about the issue of Ryutaro being caught smoking, I was in the middle of happily watching Tantei Gakuen Q for the second time with my little brother. It was 03.30 am when I decided to take a look at my Twitter timeline, and Kamichan just updated his blog. He is a fanboy of Hey!Say!JUMP and most of HSJ fandom must know about him because of his interesting writing about Hey!Say!JUMP and Johnny's Entertainment. I'm one of his readers, so I decided to read his new post. I knew his post must be related to JUMP. I thought he would give his comment about the making of Over PV like he promised in his previous post. Apparently, it's not about it. It's something that I never thought would ever happen. 

Here is Kamichan's Post: Yani's Jimusho

So, yeah... while I was reading the new post, I kept holding my breath. I'm still even holding my breath now. Those thrilling scenes in Tantei Gakuen Q that still scared me yesterday, don't give any effects anymore in me. I don't even pay attention to it. I let my brother watching it alone. I'm sad. I'm really sad. And I want to cry. I've not been a fan of JUMP for along time. It was only a few months ago I declared myself as one of JUMP fans. I'm in love with these ten pretty boys and their talents. I'm in love with them as a whole, and now, this issue came out. Right at the same time as the releasing date of JUMP's new single. Great. You know this is why I really.... really hate the entertainment industry. JUMP's popularity is at its highest now and this magazine called Shuukan Josei published the picture of Ryutaro's smoking right on the same date and day of one of the most important dates for Hey!Say!JUMP. I want to scream...!!! 

"Go to the hell and burn yourself there..." to those people who published these pics. 

I really want to do it. Kusano and Uchi were suspended from NEWS due to the same reasons, and now Ryutaro will also be suspended. Ryutaro... why? Why? Life will never be the same again. Hey!Say!JUMP will never be the same again. And now I'm crying because of this. Pathetic. But I want to believe that someday in the future, Ryutaro will be back to Hey!Say!JUMP again, I just don't know yet when that day will come. 

Tantei Gakuin Q (Jdrama)

Tantei Gakuen Q

Salah satu cara mengisi liburan panjang adalah dengan menonton dorama Jepang yang super keren itu. Kemarin gue pun membeli Tantei Gakuen Q dan Kurosagi. Yang gue tonton duluan adalah Tantei Gakuen Q karena ini adalah dramanya Ryosuke Yamada, dan dia adalah personil Hey!Say!JUMP, yang mana seperti sudah selalu gue bilang di postingan-postingan sebelumnya, bahwa Hey!Say!JUMP is currently my favorite Japanese boyband, hehehe. Drama ini diangkat dari manga terkenal, Detective School Q dan bukan drama terbaru memang, sekitar tahun 2006 tayangnya, dan ini adalah ketelatan gue yang lain, tapi ya udahlah ya. Ayo kita masuk ke ceritanya..

Terdapat sebuah sekolah detektif bernama Dan Detective Academy, dan dalam drama ini, terdapat kelas khusus yaitu Q class. Q class hanya memiliki lima orang murid detektif muda. Kelima detektif ini adalah calon penerus Dan Morihiko, pemimpin DDA, seorang detektif hebat yang seringkali mengawasi murid-muridnya dari belakang. Namun hanya ada satu penerus yang akan dipilih, oleh karena itulah kelima detektif ini menganggap bahwa mereka semua adalah rival meski mereka sering diminta menginvestigasi kasus bersama-sama. Kelima detektif itu adalah...

1. Kyuu Renjou (Ryunosuke Kamiki)

Anak muda berumur 14 tahun ini adalah murid di DDA yang sangat berbakat namun naif. Kyuu tidak menganggap bahwa keempat temannya di Q Class sebagai rival, melainkan teman. Kyuu terkesan polos namun sangat cerdas dan pikirannya tajam dalam menginvestigasi kasus. Kyuu lemah dalam pertarungan dan mungkin Kyuu adalah satu-satunya murid DDA yang tidak berminat bersaing menjadi penerus Dan karena ia hanya ingin menjadi detektif yang bisa membersihkan kejahatan dengan hati nurani.

2. Megumi Minami (Mirai Shida)

Satu-satunya murid perempuan di Q Class. Cantik dan tipikal anak perempuan yang heboh banget. Megu memiliki kemampuan photography memory. Ia bisa mengingat secara detail berbagai hal. Ia hanya perlu melihat satu kali sebuah ruangan, lalu detik berikutnya ketika ia datang lagi, Megu akan bisa mengenali perubahan sekecil apapun yang ada di ruangan itu. Kemampuan ini sangat berguna dalam menginvestigasi kasus. Tapi sayangnya, kemampuan ini juga membuat Megu tak bisa melupakan kejadian horor apapun yang ia pernah lihat dan seringkali hal ini membuatnya takut.

3. Ryuu Amakusa (Ryosuke Yamada)

Cowok 14 tahun dengan paras tampan ini adalah anggota Q Class yang paling pendiam dan misterius. Ryuu yang jenius ini sangat tenang dalam menginvestigasi kasus. Ryuu bilang ia tidak tertarik menyelamatkan orang, ia hanya tertarik pada ilmu memecahkan kasus dan menangkap pelaku kriminalnya. Ryuu lebih suka bekerja sendirian ketimbang bersama Q Class. Ryuu punya ambisi rahasia, yaitu menghancurkan keluarganya sendiri yang merupakan kelompok kriminal besar.

4. Kintaro Toyama (Jun Kaname)

Anggota Q Class yang paling tua, 18 tahun. Kinta adalah detektif berbakat yang jago berkelahi. Kinta bisa mendapatkan informasi-informasi penting dari temannya hanya dengan membayar sebuah mainan dan hal ini sangat berguna dalam investigasi. Namun, Kinta seringkali tidak bisa menahan diri sehingga ia bisa membahayakan dirinya saat menjalani investigasi kasus. Meski yang paling tua, Kinta bisa akur dengan empat murid Q Class lainnya. Ia seringkali bersikap seperti kakak dan kemampuan beladirinya sering digunakannya untuk melindungi Q Class.

5. Kazuma Narusawa (Naruki Matsukawa)

Anggota Q Class yang sangat tergila-gila dengan teknologi. Kazuma juga tidak suka bekerja sama dengan Q Class dan lebih senang menggunakan alat-alat teknologinya yang super canggih untuk menginvestigasi kasus. Kazuma bisa melacak alamat, jarak, dan berbagai informasi tempat dalam waktu sangat singkat menggunakan komputernya. Kazuma juga merupakan hacker yang hebat dan pecinta games-games hebat di internet. Ia masih belum memutuskan mau fokus di games atau karir detektif.

Kelima detektif muda ini dibawa masuk ke dalam kasus yang sebenarnya. Mereka diberi tugas oleh Dan untuk menginvestigasi berbagai kasus pembunuhan yang terjadi di kota. Pelan-pelan sambil menginvestigasi kasus bersama, mereka mulai belajar untuk mengenal pribadi masing-masing dan menjadi dekat satu sama lain. Tentu saja Q Class selalu berhasil memecahkan kasus-kasus berdarah tersebut dan menemukan pelakunya, namun entah kenapa para pelaku tersebut selalu berakhir mati bunuh diri setelah mengakui perbuatannya atau beberapa di antaranya menjadi gila dan hilang ingatan. Ternyata dibalik semua kasus pembunuhan yang terjadi ini, para pelaku kriminal itu 'dikendalikan' oleh sebuah kelompok kriminal besar bernama Meiosei. Meiosei adalah kelompok kriminal besar yang memiliki kemampuan mengendalikan pikiran dan hati manusia. Mereka mengembangkan kebencian yang ada di hati orang-orang dan memanfaatkannya dengan membuat mereka membunuh. Meiosei mengatakan bahwa dengan membunuh itu, maka dendam di hati mereka akan terbalaskan dan impian mereka akan jadi nyata. Namun, para pelaku kriminal itu tak pernah menyebutkan bahwa mereka dikendalikan oleh Meiosei karena setelah perbuatan mereka diketahui oleh Q Class dan mereka akhirnya ditangkap, Meiosei selalu menghipnotis orang-orang ini untuk bunuh diri atau menjadi gila. Keahlian hipnotis Meiosei memang sangat menakutkan. Karena itulah, jejak Meiosei sangat sulit ditemukan.

SPOILERS!

Namun, apa jadinya kalau ternyata salah satu anggota Q Class ternyata adalah keturunan langsung dari pemimpin Meiosei yang bernama King Hades? Ryuu Amakusa yang tak banyak bicara ini ternyata adalah penerus resmi Meiosei. Tak seorang pun tahu mengenai rahasianya kecuali Dan dan asistennya, Shino Katagiri. Ryuu memang memutuskan untuk melawan takdirnya sebagai kriminal dan dengan kekuatannya sendiri, ia ingin menghancurkan kakeknya dan Meiosei. Ryuu merasa bertanggung jawab dengan berbagai kasus pembunuhan yang disulut oleh keluarganya. Kyuu yang menganggap Ryuu sebagai sahabatnya juga akhirnya mengetahui hal ini, namun ia tetap percaya pada Ryuu. Meiosei tentu saja tidak ingin melepaskan penerusnya yang berharga dan mereka melakukan cara apapun untuk memecah Q Class dengan Ryuu, terutama pertemanannya dengan Kyuu.

Kyuu memiliki pengaruh besar dalam diri Ryuu dan hal ini tidak disukai Meiosei. Mereka ingin membangkitkan kebencian dalam diri Kyuu terhadap Ryuu dengan memanfaatkan latar belakang Kyuu yang ternyata pernah disakiti oleh Meiosei, dan mereka ingin membangkitkan jiwa kriminal dalam diri Ryuu. Pertarungan terakhir antara DDA dan Meiosei pun sangat mempengaruhi hubungan Kyuu, Q Class, dan Ryuu Amakusa. Mengenai jalan mana yang akan mereka ambil setelah mereka tahu berbagai fakta-fakta tentang hidup mereka. Mengenai seberapa besar kepercayaan Kyuu pada Ryuu dan akankah kepercayaan itu terus bertahan bahkan meski Kyuu dihadapkan pada fakta bahwa Ryuu diduga sebagai pembunuh.

Gue selalu suka cerita detektif dan psikologi, terutama buatan Jepang. Ryosuke bagus banget aktingnya di usia semuda itu. He was too handsome there and yet he was only 14 years old!! Gue kagum dengan cara mereka memecahkan kasus dari episode 1 - 11, benar-benar membuat deg-degan. Kita diajarkan untuk mendahului teman, menghargai nyawa, bahwa dalam persahabatan itu, rasa percaya satu sama lain sangat penting. Sejujurnya, magnet drama ini untuk gue pribadi adalah karakter Ryuu Amakusa. Faktor karena dia adalah personil Hey!Say!JUMP mungkin, tapi aktingnya yang bertolak belakang dengan karakter aslinya memang keren banget. Mata dinginnya saat menghadapi Meiosei dan saat dia berperan antagonis... Soooo amazing! Bagi pecinta drama thriller atau detektif, drama ini recommended banget.

Gelar Jepang UI 2011

*This is gonna be a long post. I've warned you. 

As a 'newbie' in the community of Japan lovers, although I have fallen for their dorama since a long time ago, I decided to visit Gelar Jepang UI 2011 (An event created by the University of Indonesia. Some kind of Japanese festival which is held once every year). Thanks to Ema, Kartika, and Vina who were willing to accompany me today, although you guys are not a fan like me hehe. You're the best ❤

So, we promised to set off at 9 am because the schedule of Gelar Jepang itself is started around 9.30 am. But, because I was staying up all night long to download some Shounen Club episodes in order to watch my beloved Hey!Say!JUMP, I woke up at 10 am 👀 Ema, Tika, and Vina who are not just ordinary friends for me indeed have known about this habit of mine, so they didn't go to my house until I called them. In the end, we went to UI at 12.30 am (I know it was already late, but at least my Dad was willing to drive us to UI so we don't have to pay for the train, hehe). Well, because that was the first time for us to visit such an event, we were fascinated by so many anime characters that surrounded us, such as Naruto, Ichigo from Bleach, Kamen Rider, etc. Well, of course, they are not real anime characters. They are just ordinary people without any supernatural power who dressed like those anime characters. Hmm... how do you call it? Cosplayers?

Anyway... I was tempted to buy a lot of unimportant stuff that was sold there such as Hey!Say!JUMP Uchiwas, pins, and other interesting things. But I managed to hold myself not to buy it by thinking that that stuff will only satisfy my fangirling desire for a moment. Although I couldn't stop myself from buying those Japanese foods.  I even bought Okonomiyaki that cost 26.000 rupiah, which is very expensive for me. Well, the hardest thing that I can do is hold the temptation of foods. I was also tempted to buy a Japanese traditional toy, Kendama. If you don't know what is kendama, here is the picture. But, because the price is expensive, I decided to save it for when we were about to go home. Too bad when I was looking for that toy again, the seller said that the toy has been sold out -__-

About the event itself, I think it's quite fun. Even Ema, Tika, and Vina who are not fans of Japan said that they would love to go to such an event again next time because they thought it's kind of unique. The most unique thing about this event is the fact that we were surrounded by a lot of cosplayers indeed. There's a cosplay competition too and we watched it. From that competition, we can make some conclusions: If you want to win the cosplay competition, make sure that your costume looks really similar and very expensive to the original character anime, and you have to be good looking. Or make sure that you choose an anime character who always hides his face with masks, such as Kamen Rider or Power Ranger. Evidently, those cosplayers with these traits won the competition. Judging by their performances, I think there's nothing special about it. It looks kind of ordinary if I may say. I don't know was it because I never watched a Cosplay competition before, but overall, the performance of those cosplayers was ordinary indeed. Some of them even looked super zonk, where they were only standing at the stage while moving their mouth to follow the song. What do you call it? Lypsinc? I don't know what to say anymore...

There's an awesome performance from a group of college-student of UI. They showed us some kind of Japanese traditional dance attractively, it was pretty amusing when they asked the audience to dance with them. In the end, me, Ema, Tika, and Vina decided to take a walk again because we got bored with the dance 😆

Overall, it was fun and it's not boring because of the appearance of those cosplayers around us. The four of us took some pictures with those cosplayers too. But we were so selective in choosing cosplayers who could take pictures with us, hahaha. Here are some pictures...

I forgot his character, but he won the number 2 for cosplay: the most favorite

And that's all for now. Jaa nee~

It's Holiday. I have some plan.

I have finished my last college exam a week ago which is means.... The holiday is finally started. And not just a holiday. It's a looong holiday, three months to be exact. A holiday means I can wake up as late as I want. Go to sleep as late as I want, hehe. So, what shall I do to spend these long days off? I have made some plans.

- Going to the beach. I really want to go to the beach because I love the ocean. It has been forever since I visited the sea. So, no matter what, I will make time to go to the beach on this long holiday.

- Buy at least ten new Japanese doramas. I want more than ten actually but I don't want to make my wallet cry.

- Going to Dufan. It's been a while since I went to Dufan. There are so many new vehicles in Dufan that I need to ride.

- Write a novel again for my own sake. It's been like forever since I wrote my last story. I almost forget the feeling of being a writer, seriously. I'm totally failed as a writer 😒

- Watching Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2. I hope this movie comes out in the cinema in my country!!

- Spending more and more time with my best friends. It's time to reunite with some good friends from high school.

- I want to meet up with Aroma. I don't care wherever we'll go, as long as it's with Aroma, I will always be happy. Even if it's just sitting on NF terrace to talk about many things would be fun if it's with Aroma ❤

- Download many videos of Hey!Say!JUMP. I want to learn more and more about Japanese music.

- Get a part-time job. Well, I don't know if I can make it to do all those lists above if I have a part-time job, but my parents keep telling me to get a part-time job so I can make my own money. Some of my friends have offered me an interesting part-time job which tempted me. Well, we'll see about it later~

Well... that's all for now. I hope everyone is doing well and have a great holiday. :)

Happy Birthday, Inoo-chan (21)

 

It's Inoo-chan's birthday!! The only college-student in Hey!Say!JUMP (well, Keito will soon become a college student as well this year~). You are 21 years old now, just like Yabu-kun and Yuya. You are one of my favorite members of HSJ. I love you so much! The future architect, prince of piano, leader of J.J Express, and one of the most random guys I ever know. It's really cute when your randomness came out of the blue and makes everyone around you laugh while you stay quiet with that innocent and flat expression on your face. People thought you were the most mature person in JUMP, but when you're with Hey!Say!BEST, you don't look like a mature person at all, hahaha. That part of you is really precious. May you're blessed with more solo works such as dorama, CM, etc for upcoming years so you can shine more and more. 

Picspams......!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY INOO-CHAN..!

\(^O^)/

Kiseki - Greeeen (Lyrics and Translation)

Ashita, kyou yori mo suki ni nareru 

I’ll love you more tomorrow than today

Afureru omoi ga tomaranai

Ima mo konna ni suki de iru no ni

Right now I love you so much

Sugisatta hibi futari aruita “kiseki”

The days that have passed, the paths we walked together is miracle

Bokura no deai ga moshi guuzen naraba? unmei naraba?

Whether our meeting was coincidence? Or fate?

Happy Birthday, Mama!!

 

I think I'm the worst daughter ever because I forgot that today is my Mom's birthday until I open my Facebook and saw my friend said happy birthday to my Mom's Facebook. I'm so sorry, Mama!! >.< Anyway, it's still not too late yet to say happy birthday to you, right? Nothing much I can say except I love you and thank you for everything you have done for me :)  You're the best mother ever. I love you, and I really don't want to see you getting older, actually, but.................... I really lost of words.

Anyway, Happy Birthday Mama. I love you million times and even more, but I know you love me more than that :3

Diet? Mengubah diri?

Gue baru aja mengecek berat badan, dan ternyata sudah mencapai... ehem... 50kg, dengan tinggi badan cuma sekitar 158 cm. Aaaaa.... Akhirnya sebulan lebih rutinitas tidur-makan-internet-tidur-makan-internetan ini berakibat juga di badan. Lalu jerawat-jerawat di wajah juga mulai banyak karena efek kebanyakan begadang. Gue tau sih, kalau kulit wajah saya sangat sensitif, tapi tetap nggak memberikan perhatian khusus untuknya. Saya jadi freak out sendiri pas ngaca, wkwk.. nggak ding. Sebenernya Saya cuma berpikir dengan wajah datar saat berkaca, "Oh, jerawat gue tambah banyak" lalu dengan cuek tidak mempedulikannya -__-"

Lalu, gue pun berniat hari ini untuk memulai diet. Untuk mengurangi porsi nasi yang biasanya dua piring, jadi setengah piring. Dan mencoba untuk sedikit berolahraga. Tapi di hari ini juga semua rencana itu gagal karena sebuah pikiran ini, "siapa juga yang akan peduli dengan penampilan gue. pasti ada kan satu atau dua orang yang menerima kondisi gue apa adanya. Ngapain gue nyiksa diri untuk diet?"

Nah, sebenernya pikiran ini ada benar dan salahnya. Yaitu, nggak ada salahnya gue sedikit memperhatikan penampilan sebenarnya pengaruh penampilan itu penting, tapi akhirnya pemikiran-pemikiran naif tentang ketidakinginan dalam mengubah diri karena yakin akan ada yang menerima apa adanya, sebenarnya hanyalah alasan untuk gue tidak jadi melakukan niat diet ini. Padahal sebenernya diet ini kan bisa membuat gue sehat juga. Lalu, perawatan wajah yang gue rencanakan pun juga akhirnya selalu berakhir gagal karena pikiran naif yang sama dengan masalah diet tadi. Haaa.... kenapa gue sebegitu gampangnya menyerah sih? Kemalasan dalam diri itu benar-benar tak terkalahkan deh. Apalah gunanya niat jika tidak berjalan? 

Meski gue udah menulis semua ini dan mengetahui dimana letak kekurangan gue dan tahu apa yang harus diperbaiki tentang diri gue, tetap aja masih merasa malas. Haaa.... Doakan saja, kawan, supaya gue bisa menghilangkan sifat super buruk ini. >.<

PS: To my dear boy, Keito Okamoto, I want to say congratulation for graduating from Columbia High School. You have take an exam to enter university, I heard, so goodluck. I love you :D

Hikaru on Ikemen Desu Ne and review about Ya-Ya-Yah

Yo, someone just posted this on livejournal...

The Japanese version of the Korean Drama 'You're Beautiful' where Hikaru Yaotome, one of Hey!Say!JUMP members will play as one of the main characters. At first, when I found out that Hikaru will play as 'Jeremy', I got really excited. I did some research about Jeremy's character, and I think his character is unique. Hikaru is a great actor so I'm sure he will play this character in an odd way. Btw, his new blonde hair unexpectedly suits him, hahaha. I thought he would look weird in blonde, but I was wrong. He looks handsome >.< I don't quite know the rest of the casts except those two other boys who are members of Kiss-My-Ft2 and I don't know who the girl is, hehe, but she looks promising. We'll see her act in July... Haaa I can't wait for it :3

Now, I'm really interested in Ya-Ya-Yah... They were (probably) one of the greatest Juniors boyband that Johnny's Entertainment ever had. Too bad, this group has already disbanded since 2007. 

"Ya-Ya-yah is a Johnny's Jr. group from Johnny & Associates. On May 15, 2002, the group released double A-side single "Yūki 100% / Sekai ga Hitotsu ni Narumade." The single debuted at #9 on the Oricon charts. On September 24, 2007, members Kota Yabu and Hikaru Yaotome debuted under Hey! Say! JUMP. As of November 30, 2007 after the resignation of Taiyo Ayukawa from Johnny & Associates, Ya-Ya-yah has been removed from Johnny & Associates's official line-up. In 2010, the remaining previous Ya-Ya-yah member Shoon Yamashita, resigned from the company." - Wikipedia

Ya-Ya-Yah used to have eight members, but only four people remained until the group finally disbanded. They were Kota Yabu, Hikaru Yaotome, Shoon Yamashita, Taiyou Ayukawa. Yes, Yabu and Hikaru are now members of Hey!Say!JUMP. I found out about Ya-Ya-Yah while I was searching for some histories about my favorite boyband. Ya-Ya-Yah was called Johnny's Golden Junior because this boyband was really famous since they were formed until the day they were disbanded, and even until now, Ya-Ya-Yah still gives some kind of special feelings to their fans. They had their own TVShow and NEWS and KAT-TUN members were often guest stars. The TVShow itself was really famous and really fun to watch. I've watched many episodes of Ya-Ya-Yah... They were really promising to be big stars. People thought that Ya-Ya-Yah would last forever and soon or later, Johnny would give them a chance to debut. If I were to know them at the moment they were so famous, I would have thought that way too. I mean, Ya-Ya-Yah had been together in Johnny for 6 years as a junior group, and they even had their own TVShow. They also held a concert at Yokohama Arena. I never have seen any of the current Junior groups who held their own concert at such a place. Usually, they only become guest stars for their seniors who have already debuted, such as Arashi, NEWS, KAT-TUN, and Hey!Say!JUMP, so Ya-Ya-Yah was indeed special.

Until 2007, Ya-Ya-Yah's TVShow still aired on TV, and pre-Hey!Say!JUMP's members still often became their back dancers (what an irony), and suddenly in September, Johnny-san announced that a new group would be formed and they would have their debut concert in Tokyo Dome. That new group happened to be Hey!Say!JUMP. Kota Yabu and Hikaru Yaotome from Ya-Ya-Yah were picked to be one of the members and they were told that Ya-Ya-Yah, the group that raised them for 6 years, would be disbanded because Yabu and Hikaru can't be in two groups. This surprising announcement followed by the resignation of Taiyo Ayukawa from JE. Most of the people assumed that Taiyo probably was disappointed because only he and Shoon who were not debuted. Well, I don't know whether it was true or not, but if I were in his position, I'd felt disappointed too. Shoon also finally left Johnny in March 2010. That's disappointing, but I think he made the right choice. He was one of Johnny's Golden Juniors, yet Johnny still not let him debut after he waits for 3 years after his group was disbanded. Although I really love Hey!Say!JUMP now, I still hate the fact of the unfairness that happened before they debuted. Seriously, why would Johnny train Taiyo and Shoon and Ya-Ya-Yah for a quite long time if they ended up being disbanded? That's just totally unfair >.<

Anyway, it's useless to complain about it now. It's 2011 already and that happened in 2007. People may have already forgotten about it, except those loyal fans of Ya-Ya-Yah :') Taiyo Ayukawa finally appears in Japanese Entertainment World again after 3 years been missing. He starred in Kinpachi Sensei final which was aired around January (or February? March? Totally forgot) with Kota Yabu and Hikaru Yaotome. Ya-Ya-Yah's reunion :') Too bad Shoon didn't join >.< Now, Taiyo will also star in a new drama, a following series of Tumbling, Tumbling 2. Yay, I watched him on Kinpachi Sensei 7 and he was awesome. Can't wait for Tumbling 2. And Shoon Yamashita is also making a comeback to Japanese Entertainment. He started writing a blog and he said he will start a new project with his brother, who was in Johnny, but now they both have already resigned. Yabu and Hikaru, as you all know, are now busy with Hey!Say!JUMP. This group will release their 7th single this July. They all are busy with their new TVShow, Shounen Club and Yan Yan JUMP, and many other things. No wonder they are one of the best boybands in Japan ^^

I know Ya-Ya-Yah has already gone now, but I hope the friendship between every member hasn't changed. If they couldn't meet in JE as musicians, please let them meet in dorama, like Kinpachi Sensei :) I really admire this boyband and I hope each member of them are doing fine now. Goodluck, Taiyo, Shoon, Yabu, and Hikaru :)

One of Ya-Ya-Yah's latest picture in 2007. They will remains in our heart :')

Awesome Musicians from my Childhood until Now

Hey... So, the topic for today is 'Musician in Your Life'... Hahaha, what topic? Like I ever make a topic for my crap before, hehe. Okay, seriously... Suddenly, I feel like writing about these musicians who left a great impression and memories in my life ever since I was a kid until now. Here we go~

1. Sheila on 7

Sheila on 7! I got to know them when I was in elementary school when I was 7. Whoaaaah... It's been a long time, right? I've known this coolest band from Indonesia for like half of my life, when they still have five original members, with Sakti and Anton. That's why I put on this picture and not their recent one because this is the formation that made me fell in love with them. 5 Members. I was just a little kid at that time, so I didn't fangirl over them for their looks, but mainly for their undoubtedly amazing beautiful music.

The very first song that made me really attracted to them was Hingga Ujung Waktu. Even until now, I still listen to this song a lot, never once I get bored with it. Back then, I didn't really understand the meaning of its lyrics which is filled with metaphors and poetry-like words, but the melody was simply beautiful and it gave me chill. I came to understand more about their music when I was in Junior High and realized that this band has the most amazing, wonderful, unthinkable, yet very relatable lyrics I ever heard. I always bought their cassettes and play it in the highest volume on my radio with my brothers. I was only 13 years old and didn't have too much passion for fangirling, so I didn't try to learn their albums or memorize much of their songs. I didn't even try to look up more details and information about them, but their music remains one of the most beautiful things I ever know and enjoy. Until now, Sheila on 7 always has a special spot in my heart and I have great respect for their music and career. Always.

2. WESTLIFE

Who doesn't know them? Well... people who spent their childhood or teens from 1999 to 2003 must know how big they were. Westlife, one of the finest boybands I know from Irlandia. I got to know them when I was in elementary school too, almost at the same time as when I knew about S07. The one who introduced their music to me was my big brother. Back then, I wasn't a fan of any western group or music because I don't understand English at all, but the melody in their songs caught my attention and my heart, along with the handsome looks of course LOL. So, I became a Westlife fan right away, I didn't understand what they sang but I like the melody and music in their songs, and only when I got in Junior High that I finally learned to understand the lyrics. I translated the lyrics in Flying Without Wings and fell in love again, like for the first time again, with that song.

At that time, I really made a lot of effort to collect their albums, DVDs, and everything related to them. They were probably the biggest star during 1999 - 2003 especially in Indonesia because they were able to attract 15.000 audiences for their concert here. I even collected the Concert DVD and watched all of their videos that I could get (remember that there was no youtube back then so I really went to the DVD store to buy their stuff). I have their albums from Westlife, Coast to Coast, World of Our Own, 'til Unbreakable. My favorite member was and is still Mark Feehily for his beautiful, beautiful voice. I and my brothers were big fans of them, but since Bryan left the group, we kinda lost interest and no longer fanatic about them. Yeah, maybe I really am not a true fan, but for me, they have left such great memories from my childhood and their music remains in my heart. I still listen to them now, and sometimes I look up to their recent music too, though not as much as I used to be. But I know that whenever their music is played on TV, I will sit to watch it, and whenever I need to remember the good old days, it is their song that I will listen to. They created so many good memories in me and I will cherish those feelings.

3. The Jonas Brothers

The Jonas Brothers. A boyband from Disney, Amerika. They were also the reason I got to know Disney more. Eventhough I watched Disney cartoons a lot, I never really interested in them as a company and Jonas Brothers were the ones who made my teenage self more interested in learning about the entertainment industry, especially in Disney. I got to know them when I was in 1st year of High School, maybe that's why I started to pay more attention to their background story and not only their music or lyrics or handsome looks. I really read a lot of stuff about them, and collect their songs. I even have 3 of their first albums and concert DVDs.

I like them when they were at the beginning of their career as Disney stars. Their album, Jonas Brothers, has a lot of catchy songs that I didn't expect would catch my heart.  It was certainly one of the best albums they have which really raises their name as a group. I also keep up with their TV Series and TV Movies such as Camp Rock and JONAS. I was still a big fan of them until their album, A Little Bit Longer before I slowly lost interest. My favorite member was Joe Jonas, because of very shallow reason of course (the most handsome and the lead singer), but then I grew some respect for Nick Jonas who was the youngest, and yet very mature, he has diabetes, he never gives up and does many campaigns to raise awareness to help diabetes patients. Plus, he's also the one who writes the music and lyrics in the Jonas Brothers. I totally lost track of them after their album, Lines, Vines, and Trying Time. But they have made me realized that the entertainment industry was not as simple as it seemed. And they also introduce me to some great Disney artists too, which I still enjoy now.

4. Miley Cyrus

I was never interested in female singers before. I mean, I never really became a fan of anyone, I simply just like their songs and music and that's it. Miley Cyrus was the first female singer that got me really interested, not only in her music but in... like... everything about her. To be honest, I found her because of Jonas Brothers who starred in Hannah Montana as the guest stars,. I also bought the Hannah Montana Concert DVD only to watch Jonas Brothers, but I ended up liking Miley even more because she was simply attractive and really talented and seemed like a fun person.

I finally started watching Hannah Montana and soon got addicted to it. Hannah Montana made me love her even more. She was so hilarious in every episode, I was surprised and amazed by her acting. I also like her music and her unique alto voice. Then, I started looking up more information about her and her music outside of Hannah Montana. I personally love her first two albums, Meet Miley Cyrus and Breakout. I always adored those singers who write their own music, and Miley happened to be one of them, which made me really amazed because she really writes some amazing music and lyrics for such a young singer. All the tracks in Breakout album were simply outstanding and catchy, an album that makes you don't want to skip any song in it. One thing that I like the most from her is her bravery to always be herself no matter what. She continues to do great things and she never hesitates to admit her mistakes. Hope she will continue to inspire others in a good way.

5. Michael Jackson

I'm one of those people who became a fan of Michael Jackson after his death. Actually, I've known Michael since I was a kid (who doesn't, he's a king!!), but I was terrified of him because he looked so pale. I was only a kid and didn't understand English, so I didn't know what kind of a great person he was. Nor that I aware that he was a legend. His death which caused a lot of chaos and made the internet broke down made me curious about him. I watched his funeral and I found myself crying, even though I didn't know him well at that time. His songs were played on TV every day for like a month, and only people who have no sense would ignore the wonderful message in his music. I was kinda surprised that the songs that sound very familiar to my ears actually belong to him, such as You Are Not Alone, Childhood, Ben, Music and Me, We Are the World, I'll Be There, and Heal the World.

I started looking for more things and details about him and his music, and in such a short time, I've become his fan. His live performances from concerts or TV really amazed me. It's like he's on a different level compared to other musicians I've known before. This man is magical, I thought to myself. I fell for this legend when he's already passed away. I think he's really the best musician that ever existed. And his background stories amazed me even more. This guy has through a lot of painful things, yet he never gives up on making great music and doing a lot of charities. He delivers such a great message through his music and continues to inspire people even after everything he's been through. His songs are different than other people. He talks about real events, real-life problems, and humanity, such as Will You Be There, They Don't Care About Us, and Man in the Mirror. He makes me respect him through his music and his attitude towards life. Until now, I still think that he is the greatest musician ever. And he's one of the best human beings. No one can beat him so far. No one.

6. Hey! Say! JUMP

I intentionally put their debut picture from 4 years ago when they still look innocent and adorable, hehe. Hmm, I guess it's really weird, my sudden change in music preference, from Western, Band, to Jpop boyband who have 10 members in it. Given the fact that I underestimated boybands before, especially Asian boybands. I never thought that I would become a fan of boybands. Karma?

Hey! Say! JUMP is one of the most famous boybands in Japan. I even dreamed to visit Japan so I can watch their concert live. Seriously, I never interested to watch any concerts before, but Johnny's concert is really on a different level compared to other concerts. Even watching it from DVD doesn't feel enough. They made me realized that Japan has a really different way in the entertainment industry, especially those who are under Johnny Jimusho. I posted a blog about them before, including their background and music. They are currently my favorite musicians so far. I can't stop browsing anything about them. I fall for them as a whole and not only in one member. :)

Well, that's all for today. Okay, I'll see you in another chance. Bye bye~

I seriously don't know what to write as title

One word for you two, Mia and Maya..... K-A-N-G-E-N!

  This feeling makes me want to cry, somehow.

>.<

Congratulation for Graduation

Fly away! Far away! Tsubasa hirogete
Go ahead! Do your best! Niji o tsukamou
Sora takaku kakage yubi hiroge tsukuru
Peace no sign mabushii NEWS tsukuri dase! 

I'm listening to NEWS's debut song, NEWS Nippon, right now. I really like it. It's like there are two songs in one song because they use many variations of cords and notes, and the ending of this song is also very good. I didn't expect that the ending will be like that. So cool ^^

Btw, I just finished reading some Hey!Say!JUMP's jumpapers. Jumpaper is like a diary of each JUMP's members. It's fun reading it, it's like you can read their personalities. Hikaru's jumpaper is very long... there are 28 pages, hahaha. So long, but so funny so I don't get bored while reading it. Actually, all of their jumpapers are funny, but not as long as Hikaru's. 

How's your Saturday night? I'm staying at home for the whole day because I have to take care of my little brother while my parents are not at home. Btw, today, the National Exam Result for Middle School is out. Congratulation to those who graduate. Now, you're one step closer to the future. Prepare yourself for the unforgettable moment you will have in high school. Oh, I've been reading some of my friends' tweets today. They were grumbling about how small scores they got from the National Exam. Hey, why don't you just be thankful for being able to graduate? Just try to make it better next time, okay. Ever tried, ever failed. No matter, try again. Fail again... Fail better. That's one of the best quotes I ever heard, so if you failed to get a great score this time, just accept it and make it better in high school. I've been through a lot of failures, so I'm used to it 💔

My little brother is able to graduate from middle school. I'm happy, but he doesn't get pretty good scores, so my mom was mad at him and now he's grounded. Well, that's fine. Let's make it better in high school later, bro :)

I don't know what to say anymore....

...

...

...

I really don't know what to say anymore, so I'll catch you in another chance. Recently, my love for Takaki Yuya is getting bigger, hehe. He has a new haircut which makes him look super awesome. Oh, the last crap for today. I'm signing off.

Jaa nee

It's been a while.

Hey, guys... It's been a while. The reason I didn't update this blog recently is that I've been busy with college stuff. I'm in the middle of my college exam now. And honestly, I don't have anything to write/share. I'm out of inspiration and whenever I try to write, I ended up writing crap. Plus, I cannot think of anything to write except my fangirling, and I guess you must be bored with it. And actually, now, I want to write about my beloved boys again, hahaha. 

Okay, kidding. 

I'll tell you about my boring activity recently. During college days, I wake up at 5.00 am, take a bath for 15 minutes, then go to college at 06.30 am. Then I will have a long-tiring-boring day in college until 04.00 pm. On my day-offs, I usually wake up at.... umm.... 05.00 am. Yes, I pray shubuh, and sleep again. And I'll usually wake up at 07.00. Okay, I lied. I wake up at 08.00. 09.00. Okay, fine.... 12.00 am! I'll spend the whole time in front of the computer. Yes. I usually browse a lot of unimportant things about Hey! Say! JUMP *fangirl detected*  And downloading video has become a necessity and even a duty for me. I must download at least one video a day. The video I usually download is... yes, JUMP's. I've collected all HSJ's concert DVD with hardsub (I can watch their concerts many times and never get bored. I wish I can watch it live someday!!), all of their PVs, and now I'm in the processing of downloading all of their PV making videos. I also download random videos of them, such as Yan Yan JUMP and Shounen Club. For Yan Yan JUMP, I intend to collect each episode of that TV Show since it's JUMP's very first official TV Show, and seriously, I LOVE YYJ so much. Thank you to those awesome people who make a hard sub for every JUMP's videos!! Okay, I end up writing crap again. Sorry, I just can't bear to write it down. See how boring my life is? I think I need to add some hot spices in my boring daily life ---> School Kakumei's lyric. Hahaha oh, my head is full of those Japanese songs. Yabai~

I'm going to have a band. I'll be a vocalist, and one of my best friends will join our band and become a pianist. Hahaha, wish us luck. ^^

Okay, now, I will really tell you news from Hey! Say! JUMP. I mean, the real news. I've told you before about Hey! Say! JUMP's upcoming single titled Over, right? Apparently, there will be two PVs on the CD. Not only Over, but also PV for Aiing - Aishiteru. And Born in the Earth song which we only can hear in the concert version will also be one of the tracks. Which means, we can finally get to hear the clear mp3 version of that song. Oh, PRE-ORDER IS ALREADY SOLD OUT IN CDJAPAN. www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html and that's less than a day. Congrats Hey! Say! JUMP! Hontou ni sugoiii~ XD 

EVERY version Le1, Le2, and RE all have this thing: Each single will contain a CODE. Once you get the code from your single, you will use that code to obtain MESSAGES (3) from  A MEMBER. (NOTE: you do not know which member you will get. you can only know once you get the code, and download the message) I do not know where this message will be downloaded from since it is not indicated.

SO... ONE CODE = ONE MEMBER'S MESSAGE. All three versions of the single have this.

HOWEVER, THE MESSAGE DOES NOT LAST LONG. It has a deadline. The deadline is on JULY 5. (so if you're gonna make pre-orders now, might as well consider WHEN you'll receive your copies of the single. If you receive it AFTER JULY 5, then I guess the message is not available anymore). I for one do not care whose I get. I'm fine with any member. But If could get the message, I think I need someone to translate what they're saying since I don't understand Japanese. Can I get Keito's? Probably he will use English in his message 😆

Okay, that's all. Yes, this is another unimportant entry. Hahaha, I just can't resist the awesomeness that they always give to their fans. I'm totally falling for Hey! Say! JUMP now. ^^

Nah, see you in the next entry. Jaa nee~
