Hello there, visitor, and welcome to 'Shining Light', Hikari's personal space on the web.

Happily hosted by Monica ♥ Layout #2 of this revamped blog features japanese actress Horikita Maki and the colour blue <3 Made in PS 7.0 and coded in Notepad. Thank you for visiting!

#7: ALIVE. YES. [September 13]

Yes, I know there'll be a time when you all will just get tired of my excuses and leave me to die with my computer.

But for now, let's just ignore me, K? D: *sadfaces* It's more than a year to my last entry, and yeah, i've been ignoring this site badly :/ Don't know why, maybe it's just that I've basically lost interest in graphic design/blogging amidst all this coding. OR OKAY, maybe I am just a procrastinator, right. But this is my promise --- I'll try to keep this site moar updated. And that means, a new layout soon 8D; it's lying in my compy since ages, and i've been raring to put it up. Nope, it's not good. It's just that I rabu YUI ♥

Uhm, in other news...A new year at school has started, one of the most important. That means I have to study! LOL, and it's extra tedious. But people do tell me that I've changed. When I say I'm studying, I get really shocked reactions. And that's not very nice XD I mean, despite my not studying, I managed to get 86% for last year's annuals~ Unit tests also just got over, and I'm scoring 89%. That's good, because I'm much ahead of most of my peers. But then again, these are just the unit tests. First term exams start next week, and I haven't yet started studying for them. I must, I know, but well. You know me.

The surprise was, I managed to get a 23.5 out of 25 for math =) And if it hadn't been for my ~~stupidity~~ carelessness, I might as well have gotten 24.5. But still, it is a marked improvement from last year...In other subjects: 24 in science (:D), 23 in english (D: that's the highest in my class, but 23.5 is the overall highest score), 18 in first language, 22 in second language (LOL. unexpected), 22 in SS and 23 in computer (highest! C is easy, tho'). Overall, the results were higher than expected.

But yes, I must not slack. Must aim higher, I guess? Well, I can say (type?) that easily...But I don't really know. I mean, I have no motivation in life, and I'm the laidback, Takemoto-kind of person who just doesn't know what she wants. People say I can do it, my family says I'm capable of doing it. But doing what, I ask? Getting 90%? Then what? :sighs: I have no idea what my future will hold. Or rather, what I want my future to hold. Say, is that a bad thing? Not knowing what to do?

HM. pointless entry.   ~

#6: layout ahoy! [April 13]

SO BEFORE YOU START THROWING ROTTEN TOMATOES AT ME. I ACTUALLY HAVE AN EXCUSE. REALLY. Lame freakish internet, anyone?

I'm really, really, really, really, really sorry, and I'd like to apologize to my hostess as well as to all my blog buddies. Please, please forgive me. What can I do if procrastination takes over, my internet goes 'BAM' and exams/school stuff come along? (Answer: Not update my blog for 8 months.) I promise I shall be a good girl from now on, and update.

So a new layout to celebrate my revival...I made it a year ago, so prish to be nice with it? TYVM. And now I must update:
1. First term exams finished, Second term exams finished, and Annuals just finished yesterday (with PE. LOL, I am so going to fail in that. But then, who studies for PE? XD;) Therefore, it is TEH vacation time!
2. ...Although it won't be much of a vacation. 10th starts next year (so now you know my age D:), and we'll have the SSC exams, which is equal to mega-important.
3. Meaning I won't be able to come online a lot anymore. Neither will I be able to update (as if I ever update)
4. No internet meant no j-pop, but I got to catch up with my anime. Nowadays I worship Honey & Clover and am highly obsessed with a lot of anime (although EW. The TRC anime is horrible *apologizes to all the TRC anime fans* And as for the manga...I really cannot believe anything anymore *laughs*). And on a random note: I watched Rainbow Song on TV the other day, featuring Ueno Juri. Beautiful movie <3
5. This (school) year has gone by so fast, I can't believe it. It went by too fast, but it also was one of my best school years. So much happened *turns nostalgic all of a sudden*
6. And I has new crush. Bye-bye, Tegoshi Yuya. XDDD I never learn...

That's all, folks! Given you my briefest update of the time since August...okay, so not everything got included. But yesh. 8 months in a nutshell :D NOW I MUST GO VISIT MY BLOG-BUDDIES x3   ~

#5: indescribable [August 30]

So a lot has happened since the last time I blogged, including our first term unit tests and end of our first term unit tests tests =/ I studied a bit on the last minute...and yet I think I did good enough *pats self* XDD; Exams will be starting in the first week of October, yo! *shudders* And everyone's schools are starting right? Minna-san, good luck for your school :33

In other news, there is no other news. Well, there is --- but I'm not in the mood to type it all. AND MY CRAPPY KEYBOARD IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY *HEADDESK* >_______________________________<"

Um, I got a new personal el-jay: shizukusa XDD visit? and people on the f-list for anakari/on lj, add me~ *___* ~~uh. itoldyouididn'treallyhaveanythingtosay.~~   ~

#4: Aloha to bad days. [August 17]

Today was a really tiring day DX This whole week was pretty tiring for me, actually. First, I was in this stupid play and it took me quite a while to master my part (which was really big too), and then we had a chemistry-fair-thingie at school for today and tomorrow. Gah, the guy who was assigned to the experiment with me was a really annoying dork and slacked off, so in the end I had to do everything =/ Ara, I actually slept for two hours after returning from school today.

Got tagged by Rachel, Hikari and Shira LMAO (although Shira tagged me for a 8-things list only? I'm doing it in this anyway)

Each person posts the rules before their list, then they list 9 things about themselves. At the end of the post, that person tags and links to 5 other people and then visits those peoples’ sites and comments letting them know that they have been tagged, and to come read the post, so they know what they have to do.

1. I'm currently obsessed with the word "lame".
2. Tegoshi Yuya and NewS are my true love.
3. I can't live without my mp3 player o.o
4. I'm a foodie (although i look supah thin > >;).
5. Am a bit narcissistic?
6. Er, I like to. Well. *thinks* write fanfiction.
7. I don't know what to write, like srsly.
8. Uh...I want to study in Waseda University, Japan *bricked*
9. I use 'XD/xD' a lot.

Uhm. Forgot to tag lol xD I tag... anyone who hasn't done it? > >;

I was just browsing randomly, and came across this CRACK XD. This was totally win: Edgar Allen Poe also wrote The Emu although this was widely rejected. It states a child was crying over a lost pet rabbit when a black emu came to the window and croaked "Dude." The meaning is unclear. ROFL there's better in there *DIES*   ~

#3: Minna star! [August 1]

Dx I hate being sick ;_____; And I have a fever + cold + cough which makes it ~~really strange~~ worse than EVAR. Although that means I miss two days of school (which is like, so, >D)...but on the other hand I have nothing to do except eat/sleep/tv/compy. Oh prish may I get better soon? T.T;

Ne, I've been watching the Tantei Gakuen Q dorama lately. Wryyy didn't anyone tell me there was a drama and there had been a drama SP too? > >; But --- I like it~ xDDD important stuffu:
-WAHT MEGU AKA SHIDA DOESN'T HAVE PINK HAIR. :O
-I think I've fallen in love with Kamiki *___________* ~~Tegoshi? Who?~~ He is so adorabl-y cute >3
-Yamada's acting is so expressionless and awkward. Ah, he needs moar acting lessons anyway. But still, so pretteh...
-Kaname as Kinta is totally - *cough* - unthinkable. But, whatever? *shrugs* And lookit the ed has Jinnai-san aka Mr. Dan standing upright o.O Wasn't he supposed to have paralysis/be in a wheelchair?
-Yamada was born on May 9, Shida on May 10 and Kamiki on May 19 (all 1993) xDD /random fact.
-But WAIT. *insert deep pause here*. Weren't they seventeen in the anime? ... @____@
-The plots have changed. But the techniques were still stolen from the anime ;P
-I love the opening. kthnxbai.

I'm watching the Hana Kimi live action too, but... =/ It's okay. Better than the taiwanese version tho' ><" Ah, moving off dramas...Tego's "one man show" came to an end yesterday ;__; I wanted to see it so much, especially after watching the news clips and reading fin's inspirational post. The things he said, especially at the end almost made me cry DD<; Tegoshi... we fans will always support you and NewS and TegoMasu! You've worked so hard and you deserve the love that you get :3 Ganbatte ne~

I guess - long (and fangirly) post much? Gomen... :cry: Mebbe I should just end with the picture that made my day (homophobes RUN OFF TO YOUR HOMES):

I think I'm turning incoherent. Whut. OMG. asjkljkfjlka. They're married. Ho Yes. I love them both. No really I do. Johnny marry me? ♥♥♥ *is not over-reacting at all :D* (Thank you, thank you Vendy for making our dreams come true. Suki suki su?)   ~

#2: HP Mania [July 21]

So, UM. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows...xDDDDD Hah, it started selling at 5:30 am over here (to "match" the time with the worldwide release) annnnd I bought it at around 7-8 am before going to school (yep, we have school on saturdays too ;___;). My classmate says that he actually bought it at around 5:45, and his was like the 6th copy xDDD;; I've already read up to Chapter 27, and I think --- well, I have to read it entirely to form my own thoughts about it. Up till now, there have been quite a few deaths. And it's certainly dark and somewhat fantastical (waiit...it has to be!), but. But. Who DIES? *wrings hand* I want to know~~

I don't want to spoil anything. 8D. So here I sign off, to read some more~ will edit when I finish *nods*

Edit: Quite fast, ne? Sooo, well. I think the last book was okay. Somewhat disappointing, the ending wasn't as I expected. Corny, predictable and rushed. Basically, I liked everything up till chapter 34, from where it all turned downhill for me. Buuut...IT'S OVER. Hard to sink in, ne?   ~

#1: New Beginning [July 15]

It seems like my former host decided not to renew her domain, although I think she was busy? But she didn't reply to any of my mails, so I decided to move :D A big thank you to Monica for hosting me >3 I'd also like to thank Eunjung for providing me with a lot of hosts~! Although at that time, I had already applied for Karenai, I was able to find another host for my mp3 rotation too xDD; Sooo...Affies, prease to change my address?

So not everything's up yet =____= I still have to add a few pages here and there. Speaking of that, how is ze new layout? xDDD Simple, and yet again, Tegoshi >> Me promises that it'll be someone/something else next time! Any ideas? I have a YUI layout that I made ages ago, though...Mebbe that'll work fine xDD *run over*

But well, I've been really dying of boredom for these few days, having nothing to do but stalk people on el-jay and all those "social networking" crap (etto...facebook is quite addictive, though!) 8O; School's been pretty -- awesome, though ^^ Except for the homework. HOMEWORK SHOULD BE BANNED ;_____;

Lastly, I just wanted to say this out loud: OMGOMG UCHI AND KUSANO ON PLAYZONE!!! XDD ILU2SM :DIES:   ~
