It's not 'obsession' it's infatuation mixed with devotion

こんにちは!~

Recently I've been really getting into Japanese doramas. Well, to be more accurate - I'm becoming more and more obsessed with infatuated by Haruma Miura.

It's quite a funny story about how I first came to know about his existence. Actually, it's not that funny...
A while ago I became curious about JGV and it wasn't until January (I think) that I decided to watch some videos - an action that I don't regret at all. One of my favourite actors is called Haruma, he's the cutest most sweetest guy ever, after watching all of the videos of him I could find I went to tumblr and looked at the tag - y'know, reblog some .gifs and all that.

While I was enjoying the  Haruma Tag I noticed that there wasn't just the wonderful JGV actor there was another beautiful man. I became enchanted by his warm bright smile and gorgeous hair and decided to google his fine ass.
I found that he's in a drama called Last Cinderella that was currently on tv in Japan (this is April time btw) So I promised myself that once I complete my exams I would watch this drama.

FAST FORWARD TO 12TH JULY.

I watched the first episode and became one hundred percent devoted to it, and more importantly, Haruma Miura.

Now because of my love for Haruma I decided I would watch EVERYTHING he's ever done...which seems to be quite hard because a lot of the old stuff is damn hard to find. Damn you internet.
But I've seen and fallen in love with the drama Samurai High School. SWEET HONEY GLOWING JAM THAT DRAMA WAS GOOD.
I'm going to watch a film Kimi ni Todoke which....it's quite funny...again, not really...

FLASHBACK TO  JULY 2012
...One of my really good friends (who has now abandoned me to go back to China which I'll probably complain about in a separate blog post) sent me a link to this film and told me to watch it - it was one of those multiple part ones - I watched the first part but because it was quite late and I had to go to school early the next day I didn't watch the rest....it seems I never had the chance to finish it.

FLASH FORWARD TO LAST WEEK
Now I realise that the film my friend sent me was KIMI NI TODOKE(!!!) and  I'm kicking myself because had I watched the film LAST YEAR I would have had more time to love Haruma.

It's like, say that you really like lemons...I mean you REALLY like lemons and you want to show your love to the lemons by eating them everyday. You want to appreciate the sexy sourness of the lemon by licking the fresh, juicy tangy centre for the rest of your life.
Then you came across a time machine hanging around in a street somewhere, you travel back in time to 30th July 2012.
Now you have 1 extra year to devote yourself to this delicious fruit of kings.
Do you guys see where I'm going with this?

Anyway, I love Haruma Miura. He has now become ones of my favourite Japanese actors, tying of course with Ryoma Baba. Speaking of whom, Baba-chan needs to do more dramas and films I'm feeling lonely without his perfect cheekbones to stare at.

I'm starting to go public with my love of these two men. I watched Samurai High School with my little brother and continuously told him that Haruma was the most beautiful being to ever walk this earth whenever he showed up on screen. I also shove my phone in his face and force him to tell me who the man is with a face carved by angels who is currently my background (Baba-chan btw)

Please excuse me while print out a butt load of pictures of these beautiful men and plaster them all over the walls of my bedroom while sobbing quietly about how perfect they are.


[P.S - I dare not imagine what would happen to my heart if these two guys were to appear in a drama/film together...oh sweet monkey balls *hyperventilates*]

A Story of My Childhood

Let me tell you a short story.
10 years ago I was 8 years old. I was in primary school, in the UK when it's summer and you're in primary school you usually spent 1 afternoon a week swimming. We would spend around 3/4 of the time doing skill practices and then the rest of the time playing games (water polo etc.) then at the end we would all line up at the side of the pool so we could get out in an orderly fashion...because this is England yo.

ONE SUNNY SUMMERS DAY IN JULY IN THE YEAR 2003 we were lining up ready to get out of the pool. I was the last one in this line. Because the kids in the pool are primary school children and they range in height, the pool is pretty damn shallow so even at 8 everyone could stand up and the water would only just go past their waist (on average). So I get bored of kinda floating in the water waiting to get out...so I stand up for a bit and I feel this sharp pain in my right foot. I was like "dafuq is that!?!?" so I look down expecting to see some giant jellyfish or something - y'know because I'm 8, but I don't see anything so I resume floating.

When it's my turn to get out of the pool I step up onto the ladder and look down at my feet...I notice A BUTT LOAD OF BLOOD on the steps. So I'm trying to work out where it's coming from...so I lift up my right foot and sure enough...It's pouring out of my foot.
The teacher is pretty concerned, gets my towel from the changing room and then wraps it around me..the pretty cool thing about this part is that I totally got a piggyback from one of the teaching assistants WIN.

The next few hours are a bit of a blur all I remember is that it hurt so badly but I totally took it like a boss and did not cry.

Next thing I know I'm in hospital with my mum while this doctor stabs my foot with a big ass needle and then yanks the huge piece of glass out of my foot, of course at this point I'm thinking is pulling the bones out of my foot it hurts so much (Numbing the area my ass IT HUUUUURT)
So to make a kinda longish story a little bit shorter. I stood on a piece of broken glass in the school swimming pool and my foot hurt like hell.

Why am I telling you this I hear you reluctantly ask.
Well..yesterday I was wandering around my kitchen where my mother dropped a glass earlier in the day.
You guessed it.
I stood on ANOTHER piece of glass.
This time I didn't got to hospital, my mum calmly removed the huge piece of glass (I'm not exaggerating this time...it was pretty big!~) out of the heel of my right foot. Oh sweet mother of god it hurt so much!!

The reason why I'm telling you all about this is that it's  pretty damn weird that the first time I got glass in my foot was 10 years ago in July and the second time THE SAME FOOT (sure a different place...) THE SAME MONTH.
10 YEARS APART.
Which makes me think....
a) Is this just some freaky coincidence as said up there...?
OR B) IS THIS SOME CRAPPY 10 YEAR THING SO WHEN I'M 28 I'M GONNA STAND ON A PIECE OF GLASS AGAIN AND POSSIBLY DIE BECAUSE THAT'S USUALLY HOW THINGS GO??!!

Oh T.T

Now that I've done story time...It's photo sharing time!
Woo!!~
I was reading my driving theory book and this beautiful lady showed up

30degreesC today and I was in town sweating my ass off.
Cloudy but give it 2 hours and that happens //points to next picture//

"I wandered lonely as a cloud..."

I downloaded The Sims on my phone - probably the best decision I ever made.
but anyway, these two sexy bros are totally doing it while this guy watches a movie HOW PERFECT IS THAT~ I laughed a lot longer than is socially acceptable :D

Theme Park AND crappy quality videos!!!

Theme parks are pretty fabulous places, I don't know about you guys but I love roller coasters. On Thursday 3 of my friends and I went to the Theme park called Alton Towers. It took us over 2 hours to drive (my friend drove and we stopped for a break a few times), he picked us up at 7.30/8am and when we got there just past 10am. I rode shotgun..if anyone cares ;)

When we got there it was kinda sunny, 2 of my friends had these voucher things which got them half price but in the end we had to pay something like £98 to enter this theme park. DATS A LOT OF MONEH.

We got a map and wandered around, we saw that the new ride The Smiler had a queuing time of 3 and half hours so we decided to wait until later in the day because the queues would have died down a bit...or so we hoped.

We went on some swingy ride thing...it was kinda cool except these tween girls decided to push in front of us so we had to wait until the next ride, I swear one of my friends was so close to beating the crap out of them. She gave them death glares and hoped that their safety harness thing would loosen a bit...not gonna lie, this concerned me a bit ahaha.

Anyway after we finally got on this ride and got swung around and turned upside down - my hair went crazy by the end - we moved on and joined a queue for another ride...Oblivion I think(?) we were there for around 1 hour and half before it started to rain and we were a long way from getting on the ride.
My friend turned around and saw that one of the cart things was actually stuck...on the track. Moderately freaky.

It got to around 2pm and we were so bored of standing in a line that wasn't going to go anywhere and because the line close at 4pm and the queue time for The Smiler is probably still around 3 hours like before.
Sooooo my friends and I cut out of the line and waltzed towards The Smiler.

We spent a grand total of 3 hours and 42 minutes waiting in the rain before we could go into....y'know that part where you're so close to being able to go on the ride you can taste it? Like you're centimetres away from the cart...waiting until it's empty? IT TOOK US 3 HOURS+ TO GET TO THAT POINT!
We should have been pissed off....but we were actually really excited.
The ride was epic!!!!!

I would say the wait was worth it but...no. No ride is worth waiting over 3 hours for especially if it only lasts a few minutes!~
But after we got off we were all buzzing, we decided to go on another ride!

We saw 1 ride that people were still queuing for so we joined the line.
As we were nearing the front...we saw a lot of people leaving. I asked this guy what was going on and he said that there was a problem and they're waiting for a technician which could take up to an hour.
There was a formal announcement saying that they're trying to get the ride working again. My friends and I discussed whether we should leave and forget about it or wait it out. We decided to wait 20 minutes and see what happens.
Luckily enough in around 15 minutes the ride was up and running again ^^

Things that annoyed me

We went on Thursday. Thursday is a week day. Children go to school on weekdays. WHY WAS THERE SO MANY PRE-PUBESCENT CHILDREN WANDERING AROUND? Go to school!

We spent 7 hours at this theme park and went on 3 roller coasters. I think we spent 10 minutes in total actually ON A RIDE.

SO. EXPENSIVE.


All in all. The road trip there and back was much more fun ;D I rode shotgun on the way there and on the way back I gave my position to my friend so I could sit in the back and talk about dramas, films and drag queens with my other friend.
GOOD TIMES!!!



You know what they say "Photos or it didn't happen"
HOW ABOUT VIDEOS?!!! ;D
