Arashi in da place

Today I put the Arashi new single in my parents' CD player and the songs kept playing all day long. It didn't bother my mother and my brother looked at the CD box to see what it was.
Maybe they liked Kaze No Mukou E. Well, I think it's a nice and punchy song.
At first, I didn't really like the B-side, namely Truth, but at the end, I end up appreciating this song as well.

*Intermission*
Please, someone help me, someone stop me or I'll finish my M&M's pack!!
*Intermission OFF*

I'm getting stressed because my future university hasn't communicated the date of the beggining of classes yet.
But what are they waiting for?!
(Maybe that Kanjani8 to come to France, in that case, I think I won't have classes for years! XD)

Tonight, I watched Wall.E because my bro passed it to me, in English!
My God, I didn't know he had films in English as he hates watching things with subtitles.
But he told me he didn't have subtitles either! O___O
Then, he explained that there are few dialogues in the film, so that wasn't a problem ^^
But generally, I don't watch cartoons in their original versions (that's the only case), I prefer French because the first ones I saw were stuff like Disney films and I need to watch them in French, so in the plane for Ôsaka, I watched Kung Fu panda in French. ^^

Tomorrow, I'll go to buy a new phone because I need a mobile contract now instead of my pay as you go card.
I don't know which mobile to choose actually.
I would like a clamshell one, but I'm not too sure, nowadays, they are more fragile.
And from what I saw in the shop, mobiles do too many things now, I don't care about TV and 20 free channels, mp3 player or camera/video stuff! I just want something so that I can call or receive calls and send SMS.
I asked a woman if I could get a discount if I didn't want all that, she smiled but said no.
So, I'll see and I'll ask precisions about autonomy of the battery, body of the phone, blah blah blah.

I'm gonna sleep now, listening to Torn!

Cause I fear~

Tonight I relistened to some songs I really liked before falling in the Johnny's Entertainment trap XD

Well, I watched the music video of Everything for Free. Actually, I didn't know there was a MV for this song.
This is the group K's Choice and my favourite song from them is Virgin State of Mind.
In my mp3 for at least 9 years now!

Then, Sarah Mclachlan who has been my favourite singer ever for years and years now.
One of her most impressive song is Fear.
Her voice is really astonishing.

One of fave songs is Adia.
And today I discovered a terribly good cover of this song by... Avril Lavigne!
And, fuck, she's damn good even though I don't like her music.

And finally, Do what you have to do.

Yeah, her songs are a bit sad but when I first heard her voice, I was really surprised how high she could sing.
And she has a really special voice as well.
I love lots of her songs, and it's hard to choose, but if you have to pick one of her albums, it'll definitely be Surfacing!
her best performances are live tours, it's so much better than a clean CD version.

I was in a pop period when I was around 15-16.
I listened stuff like Pavlo's Bell from Aimée Mann.

I also had a Dandy Warhols period with Bohemian Like You mainly and We Used to be Friends, I was so surprised to see that it was the opening of the TV series Veronica Mars.

And... as my parents are Rolling Stones lovers, I know their music for ages, since... always actually.
Wild Horses.

Yeah, I know, I had a strange playlist when I was this age... Nobody knew Sarah Mclachlan in my class, I think my CD saw a lot of CD players ^^
Dandy Warhols, forget it, I think I was the only one to listen to them in the all school! XD

And for French people, pour ceux qui s'en souviennent, il y avait une chanson que j'adorais, Le Grand Pardon de Dabatcha'zz, groupe qui a dû sortir 3 chansons à tout péter, mais voilà, je n'ai jamais oublié la première.

When I was a little bit older, I was more in a rock period.
Now, it depends but I guess I'm more in a J-music one XD

But to finish this post, one of the most beautiful song in this rough world.
Kissing You from Des'ree.

I'm becomin' modern

I went to buy my mobile this afternoon and the SFR councellor was the one we always have with my mother and my brother.
I just to him I wanted something good, not too fragile, with good autonomy and easy to use.
The guy knows me for ages and knows that it's not in his interest to bullshit me.

About the Motorola, he said that the RARZ² V9 was improved in comparison with the previous Moto phones and that most of the customers were enchanted with it and that it was even better than the last Samsungs, damn!

But... but I saw a Sony Ericsson.
They're not the best for the design but when it's come to quality, you're really satisfied.
We already have 2 Sony Ericssons in our family, they have really long life battery and we never had problems with this brand.

It was red in the display case, but there were only black one left.
Anyway, I took it even though I was a bit sceptic but actully, it's a very good phone, nice features, nice sound...
And I had accessories, a free transparent shell, free micro SD, free new earphones, a USB adaptator, they thought of everything in Sony Ericsson!

So now, I introduce you to Otô-san (it's his name, in reference to a Japanese ad for cell phones XD)



... in Molière's language now )
