LM.C releses new look ! Announces new single release!..some trivia on LM.C

Whoa !

After a busy year ( releasing an album , Touring Europe & Asia ) ...LM.C finally releasing another single !

With 2 PV's to go and a more "mature " look !

i guess mature because Maya and Aiji has shorter hair !

Maya's hair keeps getting shorter and shorter ..though no one ever notices that Aiji's hair is actually the longest in their Punky ♥ Heart PV !

Ghost † Heart released November last year so it's been almost a year since we all have seen a new PV from LM.C ...

LM.C PVs is never disappointing !

well if they have normal looks sis would like them!

Many people aren't used to the Oshare Kei or Visual kei look ~

but believe me they always put a lot of effort in writing their own songs ~

If you think being in a good band is easy ..think again !

IF it's not tour ( and the rehearsals to go with it,) its songwriting and studio work , mixing , composing , lyrics...all that is done then the interviews and the jacket shoots ...not forgetting the PV s ( Promotional Videos or better known as music vids) ....and that cycle continues !

Check out info on their new single

LET ME' CRAZY!

As for new looks ..well

haha

remember me trying to figure out what their theme would be in this single?

Punky ♥ Heart was pink , black and well ...punky !

while Ghost † Heart was ghost themed ( obviously...Maya & Aiji mention that they were ghost in the PV and the lyrics reflect it to !)

An this time...! still with the Oshare Kei or Visual Kei look !

more "mature "

and the car Maya mentioned in his twitter during the jacket shoot? there were only 5 made !

Mercedes Benz!

Jang Jang !!

XD

This was the car mentioned by Maya !!

And ...a clearer pic !

( click to see )

OMG Maya's hair is so short !

Aiji !

and his new look

not much of a change ( just a different hair colour)

Credits : Erin

lol...i'm starting to miss Maya's Wonderful WOnderholic look

if i'm asked to vote ...well...Chemical King Twoon and Punky ♥ Heart Look is my fav !

______________

In addition to that , i missed Maya's first ever Q&A session on twitter !

I asked Aiji a question and he replied ...so i guess it satisfied me enough ^^

Btw...i think someoen asked bout MAYA"S WIFE!!!

yeah..in japanese ..if i'm not mistaken " is your wife of 7 years genki?"

Maya : this year july 14th it's already 9 years .

0_0

and i did some research...

not much of a proof ..but in some forum some one posted ..." I like him so much ! but he's married T_T"

[今年の7月14日で９歳になりました。 RT @maa_melody@maya_LMC ７歳の嫁は元気ですか？]

hmm....

lol

well there you have it !

Not all guys in Make-up are Gay !

Obviously Aiji isn't either ...he's to mature

Aiji & Maya's relationship are of siblings !

and Maya plays the "little brother" role ...annoying Aiji ( as we can see in most vids..and MC's)

And Aiji is always the serious senpai

he even quit smoking !

for 3 years now

you can see him smoking when they first debuted ...

and also the 10 years when he was with Perriot!

Anyone know;s Siam Shade ?

Well aiji started off as a backing or something for them in a tour ...

and then went MAjor on september 10 ,12 years ago with Perriot !

mentioned that september the 10th , october 4th and his birthday ...all 3 holds an important date in his life !

nyhoo ~

i guess i'll stop my "trivia" and LM.C ranting here

haha

I have no idea when i turned into liking rock ...lol

From J-pop to J-rock...

my friends say that my interest in music have grown rapidly !

I guess it's because of the internet...

we get exposed to a wide range of genre and i am able to explore my Japanese anime fandom !

Yup !

I started wit Anime !

and now J-rock plays a big part in my life !

I feel that bands and artist that write and produce their own music are worth listening to !

Don;t you think?

People always say that English is the universal language

But actually ,

Music is the universal language !

you don't have to be educated to love a beat and a tune !

haha

cheers for good music !

yes GOOD music ! XD

*edit : vids removed* i've decided NOT to post any vids other than official promotional vids ...well, to support the members

the right way ^^

....Ohisashiburiii!

huhu

long since i updated...

actually nothing interesting and no good pics ...

Plus , i'm kinda lazy to type anything lately coz i spent the whole of last last week finishing a 35 pgae assignmentt in Times font !

Which can be 10 X more sickening compared to Tahoma ~

lol i say sickening coz i felt nauseous halfway through all the way to the last page ~

nyhoo..i forgot to upload pics on my 356 project !

lol

being away from the net is kinda me resting my eyes...i get to do other things rather than stare 24/7 at my lappy screen !

But of course there isn't escaping the use of this coz i still have assignments !

_________________

Now for pics update !

Things are always more interesting with pics

I'm sorry that i cant offer quality pics due to a crappy 2 mp camera ...

but i am happy with it though

it takes great scenery pics !

better than no camera at all right??

This was taken when i just got on the bus ...

Notice how you can see the mountainous area??

so far i've seen Mount Kinabalu

but no luck of capturing a pic!!

Speaking of that !!

I went to the airport 3 hours early coz of some complications !

and i was lucky and unlucky...i coud see the huge silhouette of mount Kinabalu. Dead middle ...

everyone was so busyt with flight schedule that they never take time to admire the beauty of nature !

It was too bright so my 2 mp camera could not capture it ...though i tried :(

Nyhoo ...Friday ...

went too settle the Non-Resident thingy ...we had to apply to get back our funds ...we are staying off campus but were charged so we had to claim back our funds ~

so we went early ~

after that was branch ~

decided to stay in the cubical room for bout 3 hours ( despite having nothing to do !) to avoid the time wasted for bus waits ~

i took out my note book and i have a sudden itch to sketch something !

So enjoy the sketches!

i always have problems with outfits and weapons ~...

i'm only able to draw standing postures ...have difficulty drawing other postures ~

Wanted to draw a sitting position !

but ended up with a standing posture to fit the extremely long katana in ~

Believe me this character comes form my imagination !

I always prefer a character with 2 katanas insted of 1 ~

Originally wanted to design a big strangely shaped sword but katanas are still the best to draw ~

i guess i better get bacj to my assignments ~

lol

will update other pics soon !!!

Megalab

so...why megalab??

lol..because there is like 500 + computers for users here...

Mochiron...there is no surprise when some sites are blocked in a place like this ~

Strangely ..only MSN is blocked ~

others ...like FB chat is also blocked though..but not FB...

anyhoo...i'm kinda in a calm feeling now ~

Luckily my morning was peaceful....

No scolding voice and no pressure ...

Even though everything seems to be falling apart..at the same time..everything is falling in place...on my most stressful time ..( not enough sleep and time) seems like i'm being taught a lesson here ...

and yes ..i'm learning..The OLD me might have gone through..well ..i guess you'd know ?

"crash"...


_________

nyan ~

i guess i'm blogging just to let everyone that knows what happened that i'm okey....

It's not gonna be easy ....

but with faith and hope ...i'll make it through...

coz the world is JUST WONDERHOLIC !

i might be using other terms when october comes

Because LM.C staff announced on Twitter that Maya and Aiji are gonna relese a new single this october !

Almost one year after their release of Ghost † Heart ~ ♥

Aiji finished his guitar recording last night ~
and Maya's voice recording is scheduled a few days from now


Notice how my spelling sucks here?

yeah lol...no google chrome to correct the mistakes :p

I wanna appologize to my beloved senpai wor making her worry...

gomenneh ~

jya ...i'll blog bout someting more interesting when the storm settles?

matta ne ~

senpai dake...gomen

Show encrypted text

senpai gomen....Miyuki...gomen

Can't sleep..too much in my mind ~

Throughout this week and also the coming week , i'll be very busy because of assignment rush and all !

Yeah...

I have like ...many pages to go before i complete my 35 page assignment ..

Well ...mum keeps telling me that i always expect the best from myself ....

maybe she's half right...because i became frustrated of spending an entire day in the library a month or so ago to write 4 pages of quality writing...entrely from my thoughts !

So i pushed this heavy load assignment to the very back !

Date line is friday 3pm !

and i still have around ..um * counts* 28 pages to go ~ more or less

can you believe ! 35 pages for only 10 marks !

I'm tempted to copy paste...but that's really not my nature ....

I'd rather spend my lonely nights doing it !

^^

_____________________

It turns out that i have to teach this friday !

so soon !

and i haven't prepare anything..and i'm sooo rushing for assignments !

So i hope the teaching blood in me just comes naturally ....

I know i have it in me to teach !

I always shake when i present !

and forget a word or two !

But when taught for 3 minutes last semester ...i was myself !

so ...wish me luck ! XD

I was thinking...

in less than 2 years ( during practical) ..i'll be asking students to call me cikgu...

I remember one of the teachers form my HS ! ...she wants her students to call her Sensei !

Maybe i will ask my students to call me that when i officially become a teacher !

but before that...i wanna use my Late father's name ....Chen

so ...i'll introduce myself as Cikgu Chen ~ ( yoroshiku ne !)

Cikgu T***** is just too wired !! lol

_________________

In addition to that ...lol....

you might wanna get some tissues ....

coz ...

well

I just can't believe this is what maya and Aiji were discussing bout their costumes !

i'm not sure if things really happened ...and costumes were wrongly made or spoiled ...or they where just joking

lm.c's new single is due to release October 27 th this year !! MORE THAN A YEAR AFTER THE RELESE OF THEIR LAST !

LM.C always offers something brand new...so it will be like receiving a present !

YAY

now...you might wanna get that tissue now ~

seriously ...XD

ummm...or you might re-consider ...maybe you have the password and don't wanna click??

lol

Show

disclaimer : I don't own that pic...i kinda lost the person who posted it while i was browsing in tweeter ~

i don't like the pic !!! nyah~

it's from SHOXX july issue?

EDITTTTT: LOL....3am now !!! ...THAT WAS AIJI BACK IN 2001 ..pffft ! ...my mistake...i was right in the first place ...haha ....maybe Aiji was talking bout the past ne ~ ..haha..lalala

really shoxx ing ~ ...so big pic lagi !

but then Maya and Aiji were talking bout it ~

well...i have to thank senpai....coz she seems to be the only one who can handle my fangirling :p

I've gotten over the "aiji replied my tweet" thing....

and i'm not excited bout that hidden post either !

Just surprised that it's out after only 1 day after the photoshot...

If i didn't follow them in tweeter ...i'd assume that that pic is from back in the days when Aiji -san is still with his old band Perriot ~ ( fan serviceback then... is ...kinda disturbing )

_________________

Today

all 3 of us were stressed up ~

I can tell it ....

lol

coz we ordered restaurant style food ...not individual plates...

lol

had a little fun with the soup

and also the leftover raw veges and sauce !

David was refilling soup for us ....

and said to YUKI ...: here ...you need to eat more meat ! * gets meat from soup*

to me : and you need more veg since you're sick ...lol...

DISCRIMINATED !

lol

Sorry for the lousy quality ...we've eaten halfway before i remembered to take a pic ..and it isn't 't nice to ask them to stop eating because i wanted to get a pic !

Tips for newbies on taking pics and vids :

I'm gonna start putting watermarks in after this !

I saw my pics being stolen and not given credits ... a couple of times so ~

to newbies on blogs

know that pics are a bloggers copyright !

( which is why you see this → "Copyrighted Miyuki's Monochrome World 2009" at the bottom of the blog)

don't try to erase watermarks .If you don't know where you got the pics from , leave a disclaimer~

I'm not so keen on stuff like that ...but some bloggers might not be too happy to see their pics being taken....

anyhooo ~

no worries for my pics ...because all pics after this will be watermarked ....and copyrighted to Miyuki's Monochrome World ....

please and thank you ^^

___________

well...

i'm finally feeling sleepy...

so i'm gonna try to get a few hours of sleep before i continue my work ^^

jya ~ ...matta ne ~

-Miyuki yori-

Thanks ~

Thanks for being here for me ~

Thanks for giving me strength ~

I love you MUM !

Quick ! Pick up that phone and call those you haven't call for ages!

Listen to meaningful songs !

^^

and turn that stress into laughter !

Pic talk and dog talk ...

First and foremost more than anything ....

Ohayou !

Woke up because of the noise outside ~

and flu is still going on !

Today i'll just post and talk bout random stuff ~

________________

Today i woke remembering this~

so to speak ... this is not Facebook ~

and i wanna thank those who have the encryption code ~

I know you really care ....^^

_____________

Anyhoo ~

after i got that out of my chest !

I'm kinda stressed X2 today...

___________________

Today will be dog care ~

Before you take on a dog ...make sure you know that it's not meant to be in the cage and around the small garage space 24/7 !!

If you care for your dog, you take it out for walks !

not just throw it in a cage and expect it to give you love and care !

Taking care of a dog is about LOVING It

Loving it doesn't mean feeding it and taking it to the vet !

It involves training it, taking it for walks ....CARING FOR IT !

if not that is how dogs will end up !

hyperactive !

they get overexcited and noisy just because of small things ...

why?

because their energy isn't spent on walks and the excitement of looking forward to one !

I ask of you all dear readers ~

Go out and make a little survey ~

notice that dog in cages are usually snappy ( bites) and extremely noisy

while dogs that get walks and TLC ....

they bark only when they feel threatened ....

they don't give you a big mess !

and yes ...you can see their guilt when they KNOW they did something wrong ~

A 'good' dog ..doesn't yalp around all day !

I NEED to get this message out !

Care for your dog or just don't get one at all !

T___________T

i feel sorry for dogs that are always caged up ~

________________

lol

everytime i'm stressed and tense ..i 'lepas geram' by listening to OH MY JULIET by LM.C

the PV gave me a bad impression when i was exploring LM.C

but as i get to know them

it is actually a "romeo & Juliet " tale retold in a rock song ~

It still sounds so strange and awkward when i put it that way.....

but it's a sad song written when Maya was still small time ...( and not happy i guess)

he mentioned bout this in twitter...bout the birth of two songs very different form each ~

Boys & Girls = exploding with positive energy and easy to relate to !

OH MY JULIET = Sad love song ! ...but great to listen to for stress relese ~

Lm.c offers a range a genre ~

get and album and you will see that every song have a personality ....

which is why it takes so long for them to release a single ....

this year ...their new isngle will be out October 27th

announced on twitter ^^

Venom 's'Trip ( promoting a band )

I really like how humble this band is !

Maybe because they are not big yet !

BUT

THEY ROCK !

their music is J-pop ?

anyhoo ...their music is great ~

Guves you that 'lightening" mood ?

They should be more famous !

so i'm promoting them

I really wanna go and see them live !

Jun Maruyama ...the support member on Keybords for LM.C tours is one of the member ~

They have a whole range of vids on YT ~

and this vid made my day !

And this is their latest song

Credits : Their official Youtube site !!

i mentioned in my previous blog bout Jun and i tought " someone that good on keyboards might be in some growing band " and i'm right!!

actually i'm just happy to that fact that Jun- san ( or should i say 'kun'?) followed me back on twitter !!

Makes you feel like this band is really down to earth !

I hope they get big and famous ...yet still ( as hard as it is ) stay grounded ~

Let me know what you think bout the music and Venom's' trip !

i love their logo !

I guess you can say their music is "street live " material !

but they still rock !

many instruments !! me likey !!

go Venom's'trip !

In a Wonderful Wonderholic Mood ♥

HAPPY BRIGHT SATURDAY EVERYONE !!!

THE GOOD MOOD SPREADS LIKE A VIRUS !!

ヾ(＾∇＾)おはよー♪

so waht Maya says is true !

^^

独りきりで...泣いてる君が笑えるのなら....たとえ世界中を敵にまわしたっていいさ!!!

you cry alone but if you laugh ...it dosen't matter if the whole world is your enemy !

________________

Yesterday evening...was kind of a really bad day....

but Many friends ...Senpai, Onee san, and emi-chan ...the helped me through !

and for the first time in this kind of mood i didn't cry ^^ !!

It's a good sense of accomplishment!

独りきりで...泣いてる君が笑えるのなら....たとえ世界中を敵にまわしたっていいさ!!!

but my friends are all there for me ...to listen !! it helps sooo much !!! I LOVE YOU ALL ♥

__________

anyhoo...i'm sooo addicted to twitter XD

Aiji's faultttt !!

entirely!

lol

but waking up to morning greetings from band members really cheers one up !

especially when there is an event ! you can feel the energy when they are about to perform !

Like Lm.C 's Maya and Aiji always say ...we are all lucky to be born in the same ear and on the same earth !

Technology might bring some harm....but i think my minor depression and emoness ~ can be cured ~

^^

It's nice to be back on my feet and laughing again ^^

Okey ...it's been long since i properly introduced stuff and explain pics full heartedly !!

A very good breakfast !

high-fiber and i'm munching' away !

it stays fresh and it's tasty and non-oily !

I considered buying Evian

or the other one that is RM 1 expensive ( Avenue ?) ~

but i ended up with this ~

NUTOX

it refines pores, revitalize and refreshen !

facial stimulant !

i find a lot of changes after using this ~

face become less oily and smooth ...and a little eggy shine!

though i was a little allergic to it at first ... which is why i'm late to intro this product ~

so i only use it on cooling days ~ and nights

never use these creams and stuff during a humid day ne ~

owh it is actually RM 20+ but 15% discount so RM 19 for 125 ML ...i choose this because it is more worth it XD...

birds nest extract ..ect ect ~ lol

The first sign of my bad day desu !!

I actually forgot bout it which is good i guess ^^

but i never hate rain

in fact i kinda love it ~

Before heading out to class ^^

i love this jacket

though ...

it loosens ..coz it's kitted and 100 % cotton !

Ohh ! probably in a good mood because i dream of Dad ...in a good way !

^^ he kinda bought tickets for me and my sis to watch a super rare super big event performance !

the excitement of going to the show was enough to cheer me up....

that's what my dad would normally do ^^ he'd buy us the tickets and let us watch and enjoy !

^^

I miss you and love you dad ...thanks for the dream ^^

plus the excitement was continued when i wake up to LM.C's staff members and also support band's tweets !

I kinda hope Jun receives my tweets and read them ^^

lol

Aiji keeps forgetting to mention JUN !!!

owh ..and denki _man bot ~ ..some kinda tweet bot ne ~

automated to post LM.C lyrics every 2 hours or so ..and if you reply it automatically replies back !!

i got a funny reply !

lol starbucks !

denki man : 誰にもこの姿は見えない 誰にもこの声は聴こえない・・・

Trans : no one sees this figure and no one hears this voice any longer ( lyrics form Ghost † Heart)

I replied : Ghost † Heart Saikou !

@ Chinyee_88 スタバに行くか行かないか。これですべてが決まる！

Going to starbucks ..it all depends on this ...

LOL !!

anyhoo ...

Tired of being tired !

I was depressed !

all that is thanks to JUn

*pic : credits to Jun himself*

I followed him on twitter ....

I'm not so sure bout our opinion...

but that tells me that he is down to earth ~

i watch a fancam when he was in Europe and he was willing to take pics with LM.C fans ^^

and *___* he looks really pretty with the full Visual Kei costume !

if i'm not mistaken...he helps with sound in LM.C songs maybe??

Okey ~

so before anything ~

I'm down with flu ~

i have no idea why...but maybe because the fan blew directly at me at night =_=

i have no idea

i didn't realize that i have flu this morning..coz i was so stressed up with presentation in a class with a perfectionist and theory based lecturer ~

so...i came back and slept the whole afternoon and my phone was in silent mode ....

YUKi messaged me and i didn't relpy....GOMENNN..i'm so sorry..

I'm really not in the best of health !

my nose is not blocked ( thankfully) but i think it's mild fever ~

__________

Anyhoo

after the sleep i still feel drowsy ~

but my routine XD ..is to check what the J-rockers are up to

and Aiji said this

Aiji :

凄い！？あっという間に6000！みんなありがと。 みんな携帯やPCとにらめっこしてるっぽいですが、こちらまだまだ打合わせが続くんで、あと3、4時間は確実にQ&Aできないんで、大切な時間を有効に使って待っててください！笑

basically i use translator ~ ....coz i only understand a sentence or two in japanese Kanji ( i only read katakana and hiragana)

anyhoo

the time came ~

and Aiji-san picked a worldwide timeline ~

everyone in the world who follow's him can ask personal question ~

so he determined to answer 15 question...

my japanese is not good so i'm not sure if he picks randomly ...or he picks the fist 15 to relpy and ect ~

I guess it's random..coz he said after the 15th RT ( reply tweet ) he'd add 5 more Q's....

I guess asking bout his ESP guitars is the right Q to ask !

coz i know that he loves and designed his own guitars ~ ( All ESP guitars are custom made )

and i know he can answer it easily in english ! XD

a closed english question ~

now i trust that there isn't any translator ~

Aiji actually understands and speaks english ( better than maya XD)

OMG i'm rambling !!!

BTW ~ Aiji designed these guitars himself ....

no wonder it is a "difficult question " ^^ ♥

Aiji's Rainbow ESP Guitar ~ from the Ghost † Heart PV
