Yesterday, while in the middle of a serious group discussion about a serious group problem, our OME officer related a story she had heard just a few days earlier, "A doctor said that he had a colleague who would call him every year to wish him happy birthday. One year the colleague didn't call, and he assumed that the colleague must have been too busy or forgot. The next thing he heard was that the other doctor had committed suicide."

Moral of story: you guys should wish me happy birthday every year

LOL (Actually I'm quite serious about this...you don't have to call me on my birthday, but give me an email or message at least once a year to let me know you're doing well.)

Anyway, true to my prediction, yesterday I left home before 6:30am and got home after 6:30pm, after which I got some food down, showered, bummed online for a short while and crawled into bed. The cake is still sitting in the fridge...untouched. It's the 3rd year in a row I've spent my birthday at a hospital =__=;;;;

In other news, I went back and watched the 2006 and 2008 KAT-TUN concert recordings and realised that hey, I actually like more of their songs than I thought!! LOL. Whaaaaat~~ I haven't liked any of their singles between "Bokura no Machi de" and "Don't U Ever Stop", and I don't think it's entirely related to me being really fed up with Akanishi.

Their 06 concert was held before they debuted and a lot of the songs are STILL unreleased damn it! I really like "Le Ciel ~ Kimi no shiawase inori kotoba", and "Gold", amongst other songs the names of which I can't remember. I'd really like to have a version that doesn't have rabid fans screaming in the background |||||Orz But that concert was the first and only time that I thought Taguchi was cool when he did his solo in the cage ==;;; It's probably unintentional but his smiling face always looks so fake...........

Already ranted pages and pages about the 08 concert. I really love the opening song "Taboo", even though it was a bit mellow for an opening...thought they'd open with something with louder beats. I skipped all of Maru's solos...I'm so sorry ==;;;; I skipped Akanishi's stupid solo song as well, but I have to admit I was a tiny bit moved when after That Stupid Song, he sang BokuMachi's chorus solo and a cappella, straining to hold the notes in spite of being all puffed out from dancing.

Someone tell me if Arashi sings "Kumori no chi" or if it's an Ohno solo...cos I swear the entire song sounds like what MatsuJun might sound like on a good day ==;;;;
