Mognet Summer Releases!

Well, that couldn't be all now, could it?

You're right! Of course there were more videos released than those three. Give me some credit. I might not be as active as I was at the beginning of the year but I'm still not THAT lazy.

Anyway. It's time for some more releases now, right?
(now that I finished breakfast I can actually go on...)

It seems like the farthest behind I am on keeping you up-to-date with Mognet releases, which we'll remedy right now.

The next video after releasing Rip Slymes' Galaxy back in May was our July release with is one of my all-time favourite hip-hop videos eva!! This group was actually a sideproject by no other than Namie Amuro, which is Suite Chic, where she explored a more hip-hop-ish music style then her normal R'n'B music. Anyway. She collaborated with A.I. another well known hip-hop artist to perform Suite Chic - Uh Uh... feat. A.I.
In September we released another two videos. On the one hand we had Shounan no Kaze - Ougon Soul and on the other we had THYME - Fly Away. Two very diffrent songs, that's for sure, but still, both had a certain charme to them. (On a side note: That THYME song was actually another anime opening. To be exact, it's the first Opening of the anime Mahō Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto: Natsu no Sora)
All three releases are available via torrents. So please, make sure to grab them, okay?

BoAjjang Release Spree!

BoAjjang finally released all my works I had done for them late last year and early in the summer months this year. I posted about them when they were finished. You can look them up here and here. The vids released were Lee Hyori - U-Go-Girl, TVXQ - Rising Sun (korean ver.), SHINee - Love like Oxygen and Namie Amuro - Wishing on the same star.

Well, but that wasn't all. In April this year and at the beginning of October I finished another three releases for BoAjjang. My total count is now at 10 videos. YAY!

This time around I had lots of fun, as I loved all three songs.The first video I did back in April was Wonder Girls - Tell me. If I remember right it was actually their first single release after Member Hyuna was replaced by Yubin. It should actually be their second or third single in total, but who would know. Korean artists don't really have a detailed "discography" as we are used to by japanese or english standards. I only know of the video "Irony" which was actually their first release ever and which I'm currently also working on. Anyway. If you want to actually see the release you'd have to join the BoAjjang forum to get ahold of the direct download links. BoAjjang doesn't release torrents right now.
The first one of the October releases is actually one of my personal favourites: Epik High - Umbrella feat. Younha
Younha on her own is a fantastic artist herself but coupled with Epik High - this video is just the W I N. The song is melancholic and dark and full of rain. I had fun trying to get the rain effect juuuuuuuust right, and it worked. I always wanted to have water ripplings right beneath the drops. The first few times I worked on rain effects it never worked out. This video is also the first one where I've experimented with clipping effects. It worked out quite well. Thanks to Mei and Bambus for helping me out with the specifics of clipping. Without those two I'd probably still sit on the video because I couldn't get it done.

The last one to date to be released under BoAjjang is one of SNSD's side-singles. It is a selftitled song called SNSD - Girls' Generation. For those of you who didn't know, but SNSD is short for So Nyuh Shi Dae which is korean for Girls Generation. The english writing of the bands name is actually Girls' Generation. So yeah, here it is, the selftitled song!
We actually had a lot of trouble with that song as the raw we initially worked with was crap. I think I said it before but I'll do it again - Korean PV raws are C R A P! I actually had to download 6 diffrent version to find one that wasn't crooked, non-synch, not pixlish and without stupid logo grafics in it.

Anyway, please enjoy these three pvs. Again the reminder that the videos are only available if you register on the BoAjjang forums.

Updates

Amazingly I just realised that, yeah, I forgot to update in a loooooong while. So while I'm currently munching on my breakfast I'll try to get some of the updates done.

First of all, a lot has happend in the last few weeks
A bunch of my vids were released. My birthday was came and went. University courses started again. One of my best friends is getting divorced. My best girlfriend has a new boyfriend. Halloween passed and I was at an awesome party and a lot of other minor things.

Anyway. Let's get started!

Dark 'n claudy weather

Waiting for my tram in the rain. Yuck!!! Aweful weather we have here.
Time's slipping by and I can't really get anything done. I'm also
tired all the Time. Fare thee well, my fellow lazy friends!

Happy Halloween!!

Happy Halloween everybody!

I hope you all get some treats today.

I'm sorry, that I'm not very active on my blog lately. I've been really busy with stuff and I kinda got immersed with WoW again, which is bloddy time consuming.

Well, see ya around, I guess!

Beautiful Moon

I'm on my Way to the Movies.

Autumn in Full Bloom

Amazingly autumn is in a full-blown mode with yellow and red leafes
everywhere around the university Campus. Isn't it beautiful???

First freaking snow

Ray of hope!

Sorry guys for not writing anything on my blog. I've been ill the past few days and I still don't feel up to doing a lot of writing and thinking at the same time.

On a short note, though, I just got my shiny new copy of Disney's "Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs" on DVD.YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY~~

I've been dying to have a copy of it since I can remember and now, finally, I own one.

If you didn't guess yet, yes, I'm a die-hard Disney Animation fan - especially for the old stuff. I own a lot of the movies on DVD, though I'm still missing some, like Fantasia or Lion King. Other than that I pretty much have all of them, except some of the really new ones. Haven't had the chance to come around to buy them yet.

Oh well.
Time will tell.

Now I'm going to enjoy the DVD and wish you all the best till next we meet.

A funny remix while waiting for new posts!

Hello everybody!

Yes, I'm back, and sorry for not writing earlier than that. I've been busy acclimating myself to Vienna again. It's diffrent living here than I did in the US the past 3 weeks.

In the next few days I plan on updating my blog with new pics and material from my vacation in Algonquin, Illinois. Please be patient.
As I seem to have cought a flu yesterday I won't be writing long today.
Instead I'm gifting y'all with a funny video to go and hope you'll all come back again soon!

London Heathrow

Finally arrived in London, save and sound. I'm slightly tired, but
that's to be expected if you're not sleeping but watching movies
instead. Will report as soon as I'm in Vienna again!!!

Mitsuwa

I am officially jealous now!! We just went to the japanese super
market chain Mitsuwa here in Algonquin and they had Onigiri riceballs
as well as Calpis Lychee!!!!!!!!!!! And it's nearly empty... *cries*
anyway, awesome day today. We drove to Chicago city. I'll post more in
an update later.

The Moline Episode

Hello there!

:D The weekend in Moline was just plain fun. So what did we do?

We actually were in the Quad Cities, so there was plenty to see. The ride took us 3 hours from Algonquin near Chicago to Moline, on the other site of the state, near the border to Iowa.Kumama's Mums house was awesome (I forgot to take pictures >_<'''). It had closed porches, a big yard, an extra guest house (where Kumama, Stiltz and I slept in), a music room (as Debbie - Kumama's Mum - is a music and orchestra teacher), an actual library (I so wanted to take with me XD), and lots more. On the first day in Moline we visited a used book store before Kumama's Mum was back home from school and after she came home and we introduced ourselves (so to say) we went to see some other shops in Davenport, right over the river and already in Iowa. Since Debbie always tries to save up errands she can do with her daughter, we went to a lot of shops (A LOT!!! and I hate shopping TT_TT but I survived the trip).

On the next day we started out really early; woke up at 6.30am and we were out the door at 7.50am. We were on our way to the Farmers Market, right at the riverbank and sample the local foods and watch the river in the morning. It was really soothing and Debbie bought me breakfast and fresh lemonade, while Kumama bought me an egg roll (the food was awesome and nearly every stand had samples we could taste). THANK YOU GUYS!! XD Later that day we went to Chick filet for lunch and visited a bunch of other shops, because Kumama and Debbie wanted to buy some stuff. Stiltz and I were really just going with the ride and we kind of felt like decoration (which was fun anyway). When we finally got back to Debbie's house we did some stuff around her house before we left for the evening to go eat out at the TEXAS ROADHOUSE. A W E S O M E food, by the way. I had the 1/2 size rips with Caesars salad (for some reason it was topped with parmesan cheese) and a backed potato on the side. The salad I finished, but I wasn't able to finish the potato or the rips so we packed it up and took it with us. After we went out to eat (which was actually really cheap for the amount and taste of the food) we decided we wanted to see a movie, so we went to see "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" (which I already saw back in Vienna, but I loved the movie and so we went again. The other choices for the evening were "Julie and Julia" or "The Time Travellers Wife". Since I hate chick-flicks and I already read the book about the time traveller’s wife I wanted to see a fantasy movie, again!). After the movie we just crashed and everyone went their merry way (mostly to bed).
On the next sunrise we decided to sleep in and start the day late (as the day before we woke up sooooo early). I actually really just wanted to hang around and maybe watch a movie (I was desperate to see "Mama Mia" on DVD, but I didn't get a chance), but we decided to do something outdoors. So we went on a ride on the Mississippi, saw the typical Casino boats they have there (because playing is against the law, so they use those ships to move around while the Casino is opened in the nights). We also visited the Village of East Davenport, which is littered with old houses, established shops and brands (like Isabella Bloom's clay figurines that are really price-y, because they're popular) and stuff. Unfortunately, as it was Sunday, everything was closed. One would think that when there's a river cat (a transportation service by boat) that brings tourists and locals to the port they would be open, especially on a day, were most people have no work and would actually do trips with their families. Debbie seemed really annoyed with it and shortly after we shipped to the other side of the river to have lunch there in a "jazz bar" and later catch a ride to our car.
All in all, the day was awesome. After that we didn't do much anymore. Kumama drove us to Borders again, as I wanted to grab another book I forgot the other day and then we went off to our ride home to Algonquin.

Well, that's it for this tale. There's more to come soon!

The very long flight... #2

Still tired and thirsty...

Later I realised that I'm stupid, because I did have a credit card and I could just buy my water that way. So shortly before the flight to O'Hare Chicago left I stalked one of the stores located on this side of the airport and got myself a whole bottle of water which I chugged halfway down in a few minutes. And then it was waiting time again. But finally they opened the gates and we all boarded the bus to our plane. Luckily the lady at the boarding station told me "I'm very sorry, Miss, but there seems to be a problem with the entertainment unit at your seat. If you want to use it, please talk to one of the crew onboard, so they can maybe relocate your seat and you'll be able to use the entertainment unit." Dreading this particular conversation with the crew I just sat down on my place and hoped for the best. I had a book and music so I figured I might not need it anyway. After getting all my stuff packed up and sitting down on my place I just waited till everyone boarded the plane. Funny enough, but my entertainment system worked just fine when the security measures of the plane were announced and later the announcement form the captain. Since this worked, I figured the entertainment unit would work for everything else too - and it did.

After taking off I decided to check out the movies on board and I have to say I was really pleased. First, the seat next too me was empty, so I had room to move around. And second, they had all the new movies scheduled to come out on DVD somewhat this autumn. They also had movies I had wanted to watch at the cinema but never came around to actually watch. So taking my sweet time I re-watched "Angels & Demons" (the second movie featuring Robert Langdon, which ran for 2 1/2 hours and I needed nearly 4 1/2 hours to complete, because our very yummy late lunch arrive - pasta with chicken, a salad, chocolate mousse with mandarin sauce, water, coke and tea - and I was having a conversation with the girl sitting 2 seats beside me). Later I also watched "The Fast & the Furious 4", as I totally missed out on that movie. After that I switched to soothing music to get some rest and I actually slept for 2 hours while trying not to have cramps in either my feet or my back. After that I woke up and got something to drink again and started watching some kids program till our breakfast/dinner arrived - 2 yummy sandwiches. Munching it I started watching the latest Star Trek Movie but only got finished an hour of it, because we were going to land in Chicago soon.

The fight over the city of Chicago was really amazing. You couldn't see a lot, because it was really dark, but the lights of the city were so beautiful and the more we neared the ground the better you could see. We still were 40 minutes late and I was glad, that I took the time in London to warn Kumama that I was going to be late at least 30 minutes. Unfortunately she and her husband were already waiting for nearly an hour when I finally arrived. But it would be way too easy if that were all. I still had to go through immigration and the guy at the booth was talking sooooooo fast and repeatedly asked me the same questions that I got kind of nervous. I still had to find my luggage and this guy wouldn't shut up. Additionally to that, I kind of fucked up my Visa Waiver application, as I forgot to add a letter in my passport number, so they couldn't find me. Fortunately that guy took a heart and let me through after repeated interrogation. I'm just happy that everything went fine and I finally arrived at the airport; 40 minutes late, tired and very, very happy.

... Too bad, I couldn't speak for the next 2 hours, because I was brain dead and not used to talking in English at all. Otherwise Kumama and Stiltzkin are doing their best to help me out, explain things to me and talk to me, so I get used to talking too. Unfortunately XD I mix up words, start forming sentences with weird words and generally forget to think before speaking.
YAAAY!

Okay, that's the tale of my flight to America. I'll try to get back to you soon.

The very long flight... #1

The flight from Vienna to Heathrow (London) and than to O'Hare (Chicago) was a very long route I took, but I actually kind of liked it. I only slept for like 2 hours because they had really awesome movies on their little movie consoles right in front of me. More of it later...

So, I started out pretty early and drove with my friends to the airport after I got my blood-thinning shot at my doctor's office. Esther and Philipp accompanied me, so I wasn't alone. The check-in went fairly fast, though we had to wait a few minutes till the check-in crew showed up. After that (I had checked-in my flight the day before so I only had to leave my bag at the bag-drop area) I was able to just drop off my bag and we waited around a little bit. The waiting area was really tiny and Esther soon had to go back to the city because she had things to do and didn't sleep very long the night before. Philipp stayed with me and we chatted around a little and walked around the premises. Since we really couldn't do much at the airport I soon decided to go into the duty free area to check out how everything looked and go through security in time. But to be frank; there was no need to do that, because my flight was late...
The boarding should have been around 1:40pm that day so the flight for London could leave at 2:10pm. For some reason we had to wait really long to actually board the buses that were supposed to drive us to the plane.
Well, finally sitting in my seat at the window and waiting for the flight to actually start I stared out at the window, finally realising that I was going to leave the country by plane for a very long time and that I actually might find something I want to pursue later in life. The flight to London was pretty uneventful as we only had a 2 hour flight, a lot of clouds as soon as we crossed the Austrian border to Germany and only a chocolate chip cookie and some water during the actual flight.
Finally taking my leave from the plane, I stumbled through customs and security in less than 30minutes (which is really fast) and was left alone with my hand bag and purse at the airport in London Heathrow. And it's effing H U G E!!!
Since I couldn't do anything else and I was messed up enough because I forgot to actually change some money into British pounds I was walking around the airport exploring and finding this charming "little" restaurant called "Wagamama" (which also means "selfish" in Japanese). I had to pause and take a picture of it.
After locating a toilet, using the facilities and walking around a little more I finally found out which gate I had to locate at this airport and took of in search for Gate B35.

It turned out to be a gate at another building so I had to use the underground transport and a 20 minute bus drive to arrive at the right building and start the painstaking process of going thru border and security checks again. After that my fellow travellers and I were sitting around waiting for the boarding to start, which was delayed...., by 40 minutes (so I actually had to wait 2 hours and I still didn't have any money to buy something to drink).

God, was I tired and thirsty... (more coming soon)

Patrick Swayze died...

Yesterday something really shocking happend. While watching a TV show with my friend Kumama "Breaking News" appeared on the screen telling us, that "Dirty Dancing"-Star Patrick Swayze died after being sick with cancer for some time. Both Kumama and I agreed that we were happy for him and that he doesn't have to suffer through the pain of cancer anymore.

Our deepest regrets and consolences go to his family and friends.
R.I.P. Patrick.

Weekend in Moline

Hello, there!!! Sorry for not keeping you up-to-date but we were kinda
busy in the last few days, because we went to visit Kumama's mother in
Moline this weekend. We had lots of fun, I bought a bunch of books and
we took a boat tour on the Mississippi (or however you write it). I
might do more Updates tiomorrow as I'm about to go to bed. Good night,
folks.

Arrived save and sound!

Hello everyone!
I just wanted to drop a short note that I arrived save and sound. I've been sleeping the jet lag off last night and I'm feeling really good. Kumama, Stiltzkin and me are currently lounging around, talking and doing weird stuff. I'm also working on some new Mognet releases right now and Kumama is actually encoding stuff (while playing Final Fantasy 11 on one heck of a big HD TV in their entertainment room).

I'm trying to keep you all posted, but since my cellphone isn't working properly (I can only send like SMS and make calls, but I can't use the internet which I was using to post messages up here on the blog) you just have to wait till I get ahold of my laptop again so I can post something.

Okay,
see ya guys!

Arrived at Heathrow

I just arrived at Heathrow and now I'm sitting in front of Gate B35
waiting for my flight connection to Chicago O'Hare in about an hour.
The last flight was a little taxing and I'm actually hungry, but I
don't want to change any Pounds just to buy food. I just hope there'll
Be somerhing on the plane. BTW: Currently I have a bright red face.
Seems like the face cream I used in the mornings doesn't agree with my
face :( I Look stupid TT_TT

Waiting at Gate A50

Hey there!! I'm currently waiting in
front of Gate A50 to board the plane in about 30minutes. I'm really
excited and also realived that going through costums went smoothly. I
did everything right. Okay, now I have to wait. See ya!!!

Boarding

Day 1: Mornings

Good morning!! Today is THE day and I'm really excited. I just woke up
and now I'm going to take a shower and get ready to visit my doctor.
Will keep you up-to-date if I can. Laters

One Day until Take-off

It's only one more day until take-off and I'm really excited!!! I hope
I'll be able to get everything done in time. I already have the
computer stuff ready to pack and toilettries as well. Will do clothes,
books and stuff tommorow. Going to bed now. Good Night everybody!

Hello there!

Ppl still think that I'm a boy. Guys, this argument is really getting
boring!!!! And, yes! I am fat and short. So sue me. I'm still making
more FXs than anyone else.

cuteness overload!

I just realised we didn't have any new pv announcements here, which is why I'm going to remidy that.
Today one of my latest projects was released on Hello!Online. I'm talking about the Opening for the awesome-ly cute Anime series "Shugo Chara! Doki!!".
H!F asked me to do the PV of this song, so here it is Shugo Chara Egg! - Minna no Tamago, the first single of that short-lived unit. I was in a really desperate mood to do something awesomely cute with lots of colors and shapes, so I kept the actual effects really easy and put on a lot of color and glitter. The next video will be a little more subdued.

I hope you guys like it.

Also - and I really forgot to post it earlier - one of my korean works has been released a while back too. BoAjjang is officially back in the subbing business (or so I have been told, but we're mia again, whyever...) and our first release was my work on Lee Hyori - U-Go-Girl, an upbeat pop song from the artists latest album.

Douzo!

Experiment: Peach Pie

Today I tried out something new. I made myself some peach pie with the leftover peaches from my grandmother's garden. いい匂い, ii nioi!! It smells fantastically!

I can't wait to eat a piece of it. Right now it's still way too hot to even try, but I'm really looking forward to it.

YAY. My first selfmade peach pie!

Hello everybody!

I just wanted to make a short post to tell you that I'm back home, save and sound.
I'm just a little tired and overwelmed with the work I still have to do in the next two weeks.
If anybody is reading this and currently waiting on karaoke stuff from me, please give me a little more time. I'm still terribly tired and overworked and I want to make a slow start on the karaoke I still have to do.

Cheers!

Addendum: It's so freakishly hot here.......

Currently Reading

Hey guys!! Sorry for being really busy. We're currently working a lot
in the house. Cleaning and stuff. Today we made another patch of peach
jam but unfortunately we're still not done. Who would have thought,
that we're going to have more than 25kg fruits. We currently have
cooked and made 18kg fruit into peach jam. I finally reached the point
were I really can't see them anymore.

Tomorrow we're going to take it slow and just clean the bathrooms and
do the laundry.

But since I can't clean and cook jam the whole time, I'm also reading
a book for the upcoming test at the beginning of the next semester.

Well then, off I go. Good Night!!!!

PS: It's a book about the history and sociology of East Asien countries.

Spiders

Spiders everywhere!!!! It's like a nightmare come true!!! I really
detest spiders and they give me the creeps. I'm Not sure if I can
really sleep tonight. I normally don't mind them, as long as I can't
see them or at least, that they are not around my bed somewhere!!!?!
Is that so strange???

Loud!!!!!

Today is really loud!!! My gramps just found out a few days ago that
the foundation of our house was leaking Water into the basement, so
now we're opening up the surrounding Space and fix the isolation in
the ground. Looks pretty amazing out there, as a friend of the Family
is helping out with heavy machinery and they are now upheaving the
pretty garden. The scary Thing is that the House is grouning and
shaking whenever they work near the outer House Walls. At least it's
Not raining anymore!!

Bedpartner

Meet my lovely bedpartner who shares my bed with me. She's cute,
right? Good Night everybody!

Peaches

Ripe and yummy peaches directly from the Tree in grannies garden. They
Look so delicious. We're going to make Cake and Jam and maybe some
Type of pickles out of them!!!!

Working on a new picture for my wall...

My Gran is really creative, since she became really ill about 3 years
ago. Ever since then she started working on Acryl drawings as well as
making beautiful and decorative flower and wood arrangements and she's
getting better and better. I'm really so proud of her.

Since I've been looking for a nice Picture to hang up on the wall
since probably forever, we decided to just draw it ourselves. This is
the first draft. It's Not finished yet.

The Book I'm Reading

Arrived @ my grannys

Hey guys! A few hours ago I arrived here at my grandparent's house and
I didn't have any reception on my cellphone whatsoever!!!! I actually
thought I was going to not be able to use my new phone, which would
have sucked, big time. I'm going to be on vacation for the next two
weeks, or so.
Since I've got plenty to do I probably won't be bored either. It's
really quiet and rural here, so I won't have to do anything other than
help my granny in the kitchen and do the laundry.

I just fixed up my bed and went on a spider hunt. I really hate
spiders. They're all over this place, it's kinda gross. But that's
what you get if the next town is 20 minutes away and you're surrounded
on four sides by the woods!!!!!!!! I'm just happy there are no other
creepy-crawlies here.

Now I'm going to get out the yammies and grab a Book. Good Night!

Unproductiveness

It's me again.

Writing with my iPhone is rather funny, which is why I'm writing
again! Never thought it would be this much fun.
Today was a really unproductive day as I was pretty much playing all
day. It was lots of fun but I just realised, that I wasn't able to
finish any of the pending projects which is BAD!!!!

Tomorrow - or rather in just a few hours - my aunt will come and we're
going to get some more cleaning done in my flat. Which is great! But
it also means, that I'm not going to get any new stuff done. So sorry,
guys. Okay, time for bed. Oyasumi!

Good Morning!!!

Mornings everybody!
A lovely day just started and I'm currently still lying in bed
contemplaiting wether or not I should roll out of bed or not?!
Yesterday I fell asleep while reading a book, which for me is rather
strange.
I wonder if I can send pictures with this?

I just decided to stand up. Will be at my comp soon!

A First Test

Hello everybody! I'm currently writing a new post with my new iPhone.
Typing with it is rather interesting, so please bear with any Strange
typos. Hope everyone is okay? I'm busy with real Life stuff. Cleaning,
getting organised and stuff. You Know! Planning a vacation overseas is
a hassle. Well, now. I'm going to get Ready for bed. See ya guys
Tomorrow!

Pics of the day...

Finally!! I got my new camera to work. :) I was able to do some new pics. But non from me so far, as it's way too late and I'm sticky and it's hot and ... and... *rant* it's too hot to take pics *shudders*
My workplace currently looks like this. It's crammed with sticky notes so I don't forget stuff I need to remember, like vids I need to karaoke and stuff. On the left is one of my external hard drives where I store all my karaoke works on. And here on the pic you can see the new laser mouse I treated myself to. It's actually red!!! There’s another external hard drive behind the monitor where I store my music on. This part of my table is actually the only part that’s free of paper and stuff. On the right side of my big table is a huge mess – which is why I didn’t take any pics of it.


But I've got a nice pic - my sunburn from last Sunday... It still hurts from time to time, but it’s getting better. About time! It’s nearly a week old, that sunburn. I turned red like a crab. I’m still waiting if my arm is going to shed burned skin. It normally does.


I'd also like to show you my new VANS. I'm really proud, and they fit so well. It's a female size 9. Pretty big, but I need the space for my toes. It’s a courtesy of sonde, who visited me a few weeks ago, took a walk and found this awesome VANS shop in one of the side streets of Vienna. I wonder why I never found it. Probably got to do with my aversion to shopping…

I also got myself a new camera case. It's cute and really small; hard shell case with an additional SD space. I can even squeeze in an additional battery just to be on the save side. It’s a pain in the ass if you want to take pics while being out and then realize that your battery has run out of juice.


Well then folks. That’s it from me.


Oh, before I forget it. I’m treating myself to an IPhone 3G S, 16GB. ^__^ I’m so excited.

Now I’m going to hunt down some of those really annoying mosquitos. Stupid things! As soon as you turn on the lights while having the windows open, they feast on you.

ARGH!

New Link

For everyone who always ever wanted to check out some of my older anime karaoke works please check out the following link. I've basically uploaded most of my old works after renaming them, so they all fit a certain standard naming system.

Most of the effects in those vids were done with asscalc. Only some of the Initial D stuff was still done with TypeTool - which is basically more than 2 years past.

Returned...

Helloo everybody!

Yes, I'm officially back, though I'm still writing on my end-of-term paper. I'm a lucky girl, because my prof agreed to give me another 2 weeks, as I wasn't getting anywhere till now and I should have handed it in by tomorrow. I'm just glad, that it worked out.
Also, I've finished most of the tests I wanted to do. I'm still waiting on the results of two of my tests. I will keep the other post and update it frequently.

As for my upcoming karaoke works, I'm still trying to compile a list to work off. I've got a lot of vids lined up.

:) I also got a new ipod (which is actually pretty old), oh, and a new digital camera. Going to up pics later.
Right now I'm off, because my laundry is done.

Timeout

Hello there.

Great news. My hearing is back which is awesome. Though the doctor couldn't really tell me what's going on with my ear, but he said that it was probably an acute case of hearing loss which lastet for 2 days.
I'm just glad I can hear again.

Other than that. I'm currently working on my final bachlor paper. I hope to be done with it in the next 3 week so I won't update as frequent (although, looking back, I didn't update as much as I probably should have anyway. oh well.) as I did.
With that hanging over my head and me starting to revise for upcoming tests I'll be gone for most of june.

I wish you all the best. Enjoy the sun and good luck to all of you that have finals coming up like me!!

See you guys around.

The better to hear you with

A: "Listen to me."
B: "Eh, what? Can't hear you."

Right, that's what I'm feeling right now. I'm person B in this conversation. Since yesterday my right ear is playing a little game with me. Sometimes I can hear, most of the time I can't. It's a little vexing in addition to throwing off my balance when I walk around.
Going to let my ear get checked out today.
But can you believe it? Most of the doctors I thought about thinking to go don't have open today, so I'm going to try out a new one.
I hope he's okay and at least knows something to do about that ear of mine.

Other than that I'm reading much and starting to revise for my upcoming exams.

Laters, guys.

Feeling a little better

Hey there guys!

Sorry to have made you worry. Some of you actually wrote to inquire if I felt better and if they could help me in any way. Thank you so much. Yes, right now, I'm feeling a little better.
It still hurts and I'm really moody, but it's at least better than it was a few days ago. What helped are some very funny young men in a brazilian fansubgroup I just joined recently. They make me laugh all the time with their antics.

Other than that I've been reading books, listening to music and generelly just try to do nothing.
I hope to get some actual work done again pretty soon!

Well then, see you guys later~

Feeling lost...

Today definitly was one of these days. The ones that you love to not go through and if possible just forget about. Unfortunately that doesn't work either for me nor for any other people.
Being in a position to arrange cooperation contracts and other associated stuff and learn that you're being insulted (as a group not as an individual, thank god) by that very partner you've been working on over a year is devastating. I really thought things were going smoothly and right then, BANG, everything changed.

After talking with the president and making clear that all cooperation work is being canceled for now I felt really empty.

But what drove that feeling home was me sitting in the rain talking to my grandma on my mobile phone and she trying to hurry me out of the conversation. Kinda hurt. Maybe I'm just a little melancholic today.

Oh well.

Other than that. Watched a premier of Illuminati - Angels & Demons. Amazing movie!
I loved the book but the movie was great too.
Going to bed now. See ya all again soon.

Exams

O.M.G. I'm revising for tests and still I have the feeling it's not going too good.
Anyway!

Hello everybody!
Just wanted to let you know I'm still living and breathing. Also I'm reading a lot since my new book delivery for this month arrived.
I already finished a new book called "VAMPED", which is lovely!
Other than that I've just got a pic for you and no more words!

Plane Tickets and Anime Stuff

Hello everybody!

Sorry for not getting to you earlier but I was quite busy.
First I cleaned up my whole flat the day before yesterday and all my muscles still ache
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAND I was busy organizing my trip to the US.

Yeah, mission accomplished!
I've got my passport and my plane tickets as well as my travel permit ready, though I won't be gone before september.
Anyway, this is all exciting news so I hadn't had much time doing anything particularly new.

On a site note I finished a lot of Anime Projects in the last few weeks:
Kemono no Souja Erin OP+ED,
Full Metal Alchemist 2 OP,
Tsubasa Chronicle Shunraiki OP+ED,
Soukyuu no Fafner: Dead Aggressor OP+ED,
Naruto Shippuuden OP5+ED9,
One Piece OP11,
Conan Movie 19 ED,
Rurouni Kenshin ED3,
Legend of the Galactic Heroes OP1+ED1,
To Heart2 ad OP+ED
as well as
Library Wars OP+ED

That's quite a list and not nearly all of the things I've done. Oh well. Can't find all of them right now.

Okay. since I've got tests coming up I'm swotting like mad, so please be patient if there aren't any releases or updates.
Will be back once things have settled.

Hold me, hold me!

Hello everybody!

Sorry to keep ya'll hanging so long. I've been pretty busy with Uni stuff and getting all those spring anime karaoke out there. Easter was like one hell of a week. All in all I worked on 16 diffrent projects for 4 diffrent anime groups, and I still had to do something for my PV groups.
Well here it is - the pv group release:

Hello!Fansubs presents you with it's latest work: Berryz Koubou - dakishimete dakishimete
I was actually really hooked up on that song, so I had it done and finished in one session. I'm happy how it turned out all in all.
I used a lot of diffrent colors for the highlights, but kept it simple in regards of the main effect. If you look closely you'll see that it's actually one and the same effect for all parts but I added diffrent layers of effects for each individual part of the song.
So in the end we get diffrent colors for the solo lines of the girls (colors snatched from the background colors of their face close-ups), lighning streaks for the dakishimete parts as well when Risako is singing chorus lines solo, and random colors for the group singing parts which also hasan outline effect in the background.

I really love how it turned out. Now, here's a pic and the torrent you'll find on Hello!Online.:D I'm off to my next project *bye bye bye*
