Net in the middle of the woods

Woah! I'm tired.

Hello everyone! Yesterday was a fun day and I also got to complete 2 new projects. YAY for me!
Unfortunately, I found out how to get internet on my notebook.
"What's so bad about that?", you ask? It would probably be something very nifty to have around (Internet is soooooo cool), but for me it's like an addiction. As soon as I have net access I need to surf on the internet and I tend to loose precious time. It's amazing that I even have internet access here in the middle of the woods. My grandparents are so modern :-)

After fixing up my computer with internet access yesterday night I stayed up until 2 a.m., although I swore it wouldn't be up longer than 12 p.m.. Guess that didn't work out. The consequence was that I promptly overslept today. *sigh* My grandparents are really tolerant, and I'm glad for it, but they do tend to tease me later that I overslept.

The fictive part of my brain likes to blame the lack of sun outside. Since it's rainy and dark you might have the possible excuse that you didn't see it was already this late, unfortunately I have a working clock right in front of me, so I guess I could have checked the time to be on the save side.
Guess that excuse won't really work after all.

It's pissing outside - what I mean? Well, it's raining and that since I woke up this morning (I was awake for a few minutes around 6 a.m. and didn't even consider rolling out of bed; too freaking early). I generally don't have anything against rain, but honestly, I'm here on vacation; I would love to sit outside and get some sun. I'm not really a sun person anyways. As soon as I sit too long in direct sunlight or it's getting later to midday my allergy tends to mess things up. So I generally only enjoy the early morning sun or the late afternoon/evening one. I guess I'm not going to get any more sun here. The forecast looks pretty damn bad - rain until after the weekend *sigh*.

Hope everyone is doing well.

I'm now going to work on some AKB song I started on yesterday.
Byeeeee~

report

Hi everyone!
The first week of my vacation is now over and it was splendid. I didn't have much time to write any blogposts or to upload any pics. Most pics are from my little cousin anyway ;) and I don't think that's very interesting for you guys.
Anyway. My little cousin Lisa left happily with her mother last Tuesday and I was finally able to get some stuff done this weekend. YES! Though I forgot to write here earlier.

It's raining here right now. We had great weather the last week with up to 35°C, but right now it's effin' cold and we are considering firing up the oven, though it's a little early in the year to start with that. The forecast said it's going to be cold the next few days, so I just hope it's over quickly and we get back to mild autumn weather. 8°C is freaking cold for the end of August.

Since I also finished reading all 6 books I brought with me I'm now working like a fiend on Karaoke effects.

I finished 7 krk's since Saturday - so I'm really pleased with that.
I still have 3 more to go before I can start with anything non-anime related.

The time sure flies by. I won't be home until friday eventhing this week and next week I'm going on a convention and won't be around for a few days. And after that I need to concentrate on my studies.

Oh well!

I'm going to update the anime working list now --->>>>>

See you guys some other time!

Hi there!

Hello everybody!

Time for a short update on what has been going on before I go on vacation in 2 hours.

So, our special release has been finished. I'm talking about the PVs to the very much loved and very awesome anime Nana (TV). It's been a pleasure to work on those as it was also an anime I helped with the karaoke for both Openings and Endings for a German subbing group. The anime hasn't been licensed in Germany even though the fan community rather large.
Guess they are either waiting on season 2 (due whenever the autor finishes with the manga) or they are never going to do it.
I have to admit that I never actually saw this anime in its entirety. I guess it just wasn't my kind of story.

ANNA inspi' NANA (Black Stones) - rose ~strip me edition~ --> OP 1
OLIVIA inspi' REIRA (TRAPNEST) - Wish --> OP 2
ANNA TSUCHIYA inspi' NANA (Black Stones) - Lucy --> OP 3

OLIVIA inspi' REIRA (TRAPNEST) - a little pain --> ED 1
ANNA TSUCHIYA inspi' NANA (Black Stones) - Kuroi Namida --> ED 3
 
I released those PVs both in English (TLSC-Subs) and German (Kizuna) ;)



Otherwise been busy with Boajjang stuff and Anime Karaoke.

now I have to go!

See you all later!

BoAjjang new release - BoA Dangerous Perf


Time for a new release, right?
I've been rather busy getting a lot of new releases out there. Mostly they were Interviews or other some such things from the newly returned Asian Idol Star BoA (Kwon) to her homeland Korea. She's been busy over the last few years as an accomplished artist in Japan and after 5 years of absence she returned to her homeland with a new album, comeback stages on TV and other such things.

This is the first of 2 performances we're going to make.
I hope you enjoy this one.

Devastating news! - 3 MM members to graduate

OMG! I'm crying rivers here! (figure of speech)

This morning my world kinda got a crack in it. Tsunku decided to graduate 3 girls at the end of this falls concert tour!!
Eririn, JunJun and LinLin are leaving Morning Musume somewhen in the second half of the year.
I'm not sure what I should think about this. I can actually understand it at a small level, but then on the other hand I can't.

Kamei Eri seems to be having problems with her skin and needs to get treatment for it. Since doing a lot of physical activity, sweating and costume changes between the performances, it seems like her condition got worse and she wants to get treated for it. I can understand why she wants to do that, but she's also my currently favourite member of the group. I don't know if I should cry or be happy for her that Tsunku lets her leave. Maybe a little of both?
Tsunku stated that after she got treatment and she's recovered he wants to talk about her future carreer, but we all know that's a lot of hot air, right there. We had an incicent like that happen with one of the old °C-ute members, Arihara Kanna, she left for treatment for her foot disfigurement and she got booted out to never return.

HA HA ha! I believe it, when I see her again.

On the other hand, JunJun and LinLin joined MM in 2007 and they improved so much. It seems like Tsunku just wanted them to get better and gain experience to graduate them and turn them out to the Chinese media. I hope, after some time and getting some more lessons, they're going to be singers again. One can only hope.
Tsunku didn't yet state if the girls are going to leave UFA after they graduate or if they just graduate MM and move on to something else. I guess we'll see at the end. I'm wishing them the best of luck!

I wonder what happend to the korean girl that won the auditions.... *huh*

Oh, and the 9th gen auditions startet!!!
 Maybe they were all too old for the group? I mean JunJun and Erin were like 22 years old or so.... *huh* But LinLin was still pretty young (19).

oh well..........
Back to work!

woot!

Hello again!

I'm finally back. Okay, I have been since Wednesday but then, I had a lot of work to do so I actually forgot to write a blogpost.
My uncle drove me home with his car, so I actually didn't have to pay for a train ticket. Saved me 7 €, woot! The real reason behind it was a closed up kitchen drain in my sink. Since he at one time learned to be a plumber it was a lucky stroke that he was at my grandparents place. I could actually ask him to help me AND be driven home at the same time. Thanks again, uncle!

I'm getting things done. It isn't as fast as it could be but that's okay.
I finished working on that One Piece OP13 song and am working now on Strike Witches 2 OP (as you can probably see on the right side ------>>>> )
It turned out great, thanks to one of my friends - OutlawJonas! Thanks for helping me out, OJ!!!!! He helped me fix some code I wasn't getting anywhere with. Now, my rocket girl actually has airstreams shooting out behind its feet jet nozzles. WOAH! I can probably never use that effect for anything else, but it was still worth it ;D

On a side note, I finally got my two Warlock ICC-10 gimmicks yesterday. Trinket and shieldhand. =) Now I can start getting my Shaman ICC equipped! Wussa!

On the road again

I'm on my way to my grandparents. BTW. This seat pattern is very. Yuck!

1. August 2010

On a short notice...

I just heared yesterday that my little cousin is going to my grandparents place and I promised to keep her company so I'll be heading out to my grandparents early tomorrow morning. I'll probably be back by wednesday or so.

Otherwise things have been quiet here.

I kinda talked myself into 6 new projects as you can see on the right side in my Anime worklist. I don't know why but I just said yes. *sigh* I'm that stupid, yes sir.

On another note: Our first and only s/mileage release in H!F just came out and we decided it also was the last one. SimpleSubs has been working on the pre-debut pvs and will also be working on the majo releases. This one was an exception as our new Typesetter already released a version in his native languages and I was so delighted with that version that I wanted it to be released in english too. This is why it was finally released today - on Wada Ayaka-chan's birthday.


Hope to see you all again soon!
