KREVA HAS MARRIED!!

"His partner is 32 years old office worker"... is it me!? (panicking)

Anyway I can accept it because his partner is a kind of general woman. I hope that they share a loooong and happy life together.

The reason why I like John Bon Jovi, Tortoise Matsumoto and HimRock is that they have been loving and cherishing their wife. I regards a man who burns old life partner with loathing. I don't want to disrespect him.

So, I hope he gets along beautifully with his wife their whole life long.

Best wishes!

Claim

I ordered a CD at a internet shopping website.

Today I received it, but its condition was awful.
I can listen to the CD without problem, but the case was broken and there wasn't a lyric sheet. I had known it was a second-hand CD, but they have not mentioned its condition before.

I sent an e-mail to the shop. I'm not sure what they can do about it. I hope they will exchange to another one, at least will send me its lyric sheet.

I like the contents of the CD. It makes me even sadder.

Bon Jovi 2008

I joined the live of Bon Jovi "Lost Highway". We listened again and again the latest CD all the morning. We made perfect preparations! (too late!?)

It was very freezing and windy day. We had to wait on a line to get goods more than 1 hour, so we were nearly dead. I bought a pamphlet for my friend who couldn't come here, and a cap for me. At that time, I thought the cap was very cute. But now... I'm not sure. When I go to a live, I often buy some goods. And after coming back home, I always think "Why did I buy it?". I can't help it.

Anyway, the live was gorgeous. John sang many latest songs and old songs too. We shouted and screamed and sang and jumped and danced. (Unfortunately, the venue wasn't suitable for musical event. Their sound was awful. But we have no choice because that was the biggest venue for such artists!)

Now it increased motivation for learning English.

YES!!

I was ... I AM on a diet because I gained weight while living in Mexico for 2 years.
Now I can put on the pants which I wore when I was the slimmest! I know it looks too tight to wear, but I feel great!

Chinese Pops

As I wrote yesterday, I bought CDs of Chinese singers through internet. One of them arrived today. "I'm Very Busy/Jay Chou"

It is very nice. He is Taiwanese very popular and famous singer/actor. He sings very softly. He sings popular song and hiphop with a sprinkle of traditional chinese song.

I will get the other CDs, too.

No Music No Life

↑I think this is the best advertising copy I've ever met.

I'm going to go to a live of Bon Jovi this weekend. I haven't listened their new album "LOST HIGHWAY" yet. I know only songs like "BAD MEDICINE" "LIVING ON A PRAYER" "YOU GIVE LOVE A BAD NAME" "IN THE FAITH" "IT'S MY LIFE" "HAVE A NICE DAY"...Well, it seems sufficient. I cannot sing with them, but I can jump and dance. I'll enjoy it!

I listen to various music. The musicians who are in my WALKMAN now is; Ulfuls, Tsubaki, Kazuyoshi Nakamura, Alejandro Sanz, Allister, Bon Jovi, Bump of Chicken, Bungee Jump Festival, By Phar the Dopest, B'z, KREVA, Panda, and Soundtrack of "CONTACT", "Backbeat", "RENT" and of course English studing CD. I don't know much about the categories of music, but it may seem I'm whimsical person.

Lately I'm very interested in songs sung in foreign language which I know little. Needless to say I like Japanese songs because I can understand all of their words and feelings. At the same time the songs sung in foreign language sounds like a kind of a musical instrument.
I'd like to try to listen to Chinese songs.
