Lately my life is quite boring.
I've such boring but harsh time, so in these weeks I never go to shopping or at least walking in the big city (I'm speaking about Milan, not NY, of course). I'm quite sad, you know how deeply I love searching for new products and share my experiences on the net.
But something really exciting had happened to me last month. I know I'm in late but I'm planning for a more substantial update routine in the near future, believe me as you made with Cher.
So, what's up?
One day a friend asked me if it was ok for me to go to a small trip with him and other 3 persons on an X-day. I say "ok! But where are we going?" and he says me "surprise!". It is definitely exciting. Well, when they said me I had to be out of my house at 4 a.m., that moment wasn't the brightest one, but ok, it's the so called blind-trip, sleeping is not strictly required! XD
So we drove in the early morning to the airport!? I was quite shocked. Usually I prepare myself before flying, I'm not scared at all, but discovering you're going to take an airplane 30 minutes before sitting on it, it's bizzare.
What was the destination?( Andversa )

Oh, no one will be surprised,
but it's always a pleasure to see your favourite series and actors being known as the best in their job.
Best Comedy and Best Comedy Actor - Tina Fey now is powerful almost like a Goddess.Everything she touchs, becomes a (nerdy) hit.30Rock, even if in Italy is not known, is THE comedy show, from its start (3 years ago) to now. Newer comedies like "The Bing Bang Theory" are good, but 30Rock, even if it's not hot&new, it's still the best.
I'm really happy for Alec too. Ok, now his ego is probabily taller than NBS building, but his performance is fantastic!
Best Drama - Mad Men
There are so much good dramas on tv now, but only Mad Men is perfect, from the witty and never boring screenplays to the fantastic crew. Each actor is absolutely perfect, everyone do the best performance possible for his character.
It's an hard work in which the entire cast and a small cable tv believed in, and, even if at first the show was famous and appreciated only between critics and 50's lovers, now it became an hit for all American audience.
Best drama actress - Glenn Close
If someons will offer an evil and drammatic part to Glenn, she will win against every actress on this planet. Twice.
She is the principal cause of Damages little but growning success. Ok, in Italy no one saw this show, but we are really good at snobbing the best products of foreign tvs, while viewing the most shitty programmes producted in our country.
Thanks internet for existing.
This year, because of writer's strike and economy fall, the natural process of rechange in the most important usa channel was slowed down or stopped. I hope this coming new season will bring us interesting premieres of new hot series.
I'm a little disappointed by the lack of Sci Fi series' nomination. Important and famous shows like Battle Star Galactica, Fringe, Doctor Who maybe deserves a little more.
And now I'm going to wait for someone who upload winner speech on Youtube.
Tina's ones are always funny!

Today I was planning to post a special about Seiji's b-day, that was yesterday.
Unfortunately a terrible thing happened;
Jasmine You is passed away.
I'm shocked; I can't believe that marvelous guy I saw only few months ago is not between us.
I'm really sad for him, his family and friends.
I don't know want to say, so I decide to translate the official notification in italian.
Jasmine, I hope you'll rest in peace.

cynical
Recently I read this book. I don't want to do a review about, because I already wrote one here, but I want to start from this reading for thinking a little about what fandom is become lately.
credit hereI was reading this book and I found it incredibly moving and exciting (except after page 350...if you have suicide tendencies or you're depressed, don't read this part. I can imagine the Audrey Niffenegger wrote this part while thinking "and now I'm going to put tragedy, because I want to be quoted as an Author, not a best seller writer...more sad, more death, more misfortune, MORE MORE!").Every book-releated website is filled by declaration of love for this book...someone is so brave to refer to it as "my favourite book ever". But there are bad reviews too. It's normal, ok, everyone has different taste.
Everything is began from a secret, in which someone said that Twilight is a shit and this book is not better. I can understand that male readers did not find ah huge masterpiece in a book about a love story, but...you've to be objective. You don't like it, ok, but this book is built with a gorgeous technic; it's impossible to even compare a flat, descriptive, predictable plot with one with a unique form, built in a fluent way of flashback and flashforward, with a circle of continuing influences of the past on the future and viceversa. It's complex but it's so easy to understand...because of the writer is good in her job. Another point; someone said Twilight vampires are innovative because...well, they actually sparkle. Wow. Twilight is not only about teenagers, it seems to be written by a teenager, or at least with them as referring audience. I'm not saying is a shit, I'm saying is a good best-seller novel, but nothing innovative. Comparing it with Time Traveller's Wife is not fair, because, even with its faults, it's an adult book, written by an adult author that showed a lot of experience, expecially if you consider that she is a debut artist, for adult readers.
Searching for more, I found a ridicolous amount of negative comments, 90% of them made by males. I can summarize all of those in "this is a F****** love story, I hate love story, so this is a shit". Well...it's not a secret that the plot is revolving on a love story. So...it's probabily romantic! Gosh! If you don't like this stuff, why do you want to loose hours of your precious time to read 500+ pages book? Only to write that is a shit? This is insane.
I also found a commenter, the best one, that finished his review with this line "In future I wont read another book written by a woman. Everything romantic..." WHAT? If you like girl being raped, not loved, if you like splatter, horror, and only God knows what, why do you decide to read this book? I can list, thinking only 3 seconds, at least 3 female writers more sensual and violent plots than a normal male author.
About the book itself ...a movie adaptation is coming. I don't know what to think about. I definitely want to see, but from the trailer the feeling is like they wanted to realize a romantic movie, cutting off all the original parts, making flat the plot.
Eric Bana for Henry is ok, but I was thinking about Christian Bale. It's more tormented, it could be perfect for this role! I really like Rachel McAdams, but...she is not my Clare, judging from the trailer!

As all of you knows,
I'm such a loser about water sports. I always watch and follow italian athletes and I'm so sad not to be able to go to Rome for seeing my favourites, since I was 10 years old.
Today the first part of the Championship is finishes. I like swimming in pool, but surely I prefer diving, swimming in open water and
swimming in synch. I'm so so happy, after the first days in which Italians seems to be able only to win wood medals, to take such an hystorical medals...let's see!

I was thinking...
if you know a little of Kaya discography, don't you think that if Kaya begin to sell his hits to gym clubs, as official soundtrack for aerobic or step courses, he will become so rich to be able to increase the number of dancers in his show?
Songs like these makes me want to take a step and begin screaming "one two three four and UP! DOWN! LEFT! RIGHT!"
Today is Hiroki (D drummer) birthday. I don't want to put a photo, because...well...let's say he is not so photogenical (as everyone in D band).
So I put a fantastic live performance ...D performances or PVs are always such folkloristic! XDDDD
I training for days to do the flag part perfectly at the Nagoya show . And now I own my flag pair, yeah!
Try yourself. Asagi is such a master in this.

As all of you already know, today is the 40th anniversary from the moon landing (and walkind) day.
image from here
I wish I saw that moment...it had to be something really magical, something like "Ok, from tomorrow the world won't be the same again". I always complain myself with my parents because they saw such "hystorical moments" as Kennedy murder, moon landing, distruction of berlin wall, 13 days cuba crisis and so on. Ok, most of them are quite scary but, I cannot explain, with the exception of September 11th, I felt like history is going on vacation during this decade (except for natural disasters, but, of course, no one wants to remember these).
Well...we have Obama, I suppose.
Wow...walking on moon. Sounds magical. Like a fairy-tale.
When someone speaks about moon landing, I think of Michael Collins, the only one who did not walk on Moon, but remained in orbit with the Columbus. Such close, such far from Moon.
Remembering these kind of events means remember the world as it was in that epoc. Are we able to make such huge dreams and make them come true, nowadays? What do you think?

Today is Kamijo 34th Birthday!
I hope it will be a fantastic bday...maybe Kaya and he shall party together! Fufufu!But it's hightly probable that he is working with the other members on the new album, the first with a major lable. They're working as slaves and seems they're really enjoing the results. If you want to preorder, do it now on CdJapan, there is a discount of 500 yen here! And remember to click on this site banner for arriving at the cd page, someone will be very happy!
Tomorrow a group of great Kamijo fans (and my dearest friends) will take a plane and go to Tokyo for a fantastic trip of 30 days.
Good luck guys and have as much fun ( and fangirlism) as possible. I'll miss all of you sooo much!

(his 20th b-day, as usual)
I'm curious to listen to coming "Ophelia" and to see the booklet (because of Kaya's ones are always interesting...and you know what I mean).
After the latest gossip about Ricky and their "work" dates...the thing is getting even more interesting.
My mind is building a fanfiction about this, you know.

I'll try to explain to english readers too.
In Italy there is a daily show on TV called "Forum" in which two actor play the role of parts of a real trial and a real judge make a sentence that remain valid in real life too. (someone even write a page for wikipedia).
I don't like this show; it's noisy, everybody, from the anchor to the audience scream his opinion above others. It's almost vulgar.
Yesterday I had to see it, because of I was at my grandmother house for lunch and she is a sort of fangirl of the show.
After seeing this part I was shocked.
The trial is about a woman who don't want to give away her labrador, because of it helps her dead husband when he had became blind. The building in which she lives has a rule about and other families permitted to her to keep the animal for husband's sake.
Rita dalla Chiesa, the anchor, is quite famous for "being animalist". But this is not "animalist", is impoliteness and arrogance.
I'm not speaking about the story, everyone has his opinion about. But when someone said things like "Places in which keeping an animal is forbidden are illegal" and "People don't want animals in their buildings, they're animals!" , well, I think this person is arrogant.
I can understand you love animals and I'm agreeing people that forsake dogs and cats in summer are criminals, because of the animal (and other persons) can be in danger. But as I respect you, you MUST respect me.
If someone does not like animals, but respect the others' dogs and cats and doesn't hurt them, where is the problem? There are humans in the world who don't like dogs, as there are ones who don't like ice creams, cinema, sports. These people have rights too, as the one to find a place without animal for living, if they want. There are persons scare by dogs, with allergies, who don't like animal smell or noisy places. These persons deserve a place without animals, as people who loves animals deserve a place in which they can live with.
Plus, if there are rules, people must respect them, even if they don't like.
I want a cat from AGES, but in my building is forbidden, so I'm dreaming to get one in my future single life.
In this building there are so much persons who have dogs and cats without permission. It's really sad. A rule is a rule, not an advise.
I felt unconfortable anytime someone use the television for imposing his/her point of view.
In Italy it's quite common and I don't like it.

It's actually my dream, a clean, tidy bedroom.
Unluckily I'm so busy nowadays so my room is such a mess. Really a mess.
Today I was able to clean my radio/cds corner. Obviously I've tons of cd, but the ones I'm ashamed of owning (and there are a lot of these) and the ones I need to hide because of the trash itself born from them are in a huge box in one of my wardrobe. I know, my cd player is really cheap, but until it works, it's ok!
After retourning home I began a fight against my huge wardrobe. With all of my cloths a family can live without using a wash machine for at least a week. I cleaned up all, reorganized all in a better way and, last but not the least, gave to salvation army some prooves I was already born in 80's. Now it's ok, a quite normal wardrobe (for a girl, eheh), but I already feel the need of doing shopping! XD

Tra poco un mio carissimo amico parte per il Giappone e purtroppo, in concomitanza con questo bellissimo momento, gli si è rotto il pc, così non possiamo delirare prima della sua partenza e, come durante il mio viaggio, temo, anche durante il suo ci sentiremo pochissimo.
Così, all'una di notte circa, ovvero quando il mio povero cervelletto inizia a funzionare, ho deciso di fargli un piccolo regaluccio di addio, e mi devo ricordare di linkarglielo visto che usa il pc a cottimo (che brutti momenti).
