too much TV watching makes you stupid......?

October 5th, 2007 (10:39 am)

I spend too much time on TV, I know... I can't get enough of new series, so now I download & watch Prison Break season 3 as soon as they're broadcasted on US TV... I love this show... it's kinda repetitive though, but I don't know why,
I really love this show

It's about a guy who gets in jail....

That's more than a year... more than a year that I didn't touch this blog and many other stuff on my computer...
So, here's my annual statement, for those interested in my life...

After moving on a shared flat with my fiancé, I discovered how hard is a 'housewife' life ^^ less free time, more work, even if on the other hand you get more satisfaction in life... Why do women have to do all the house stuff... Where is my "sebiro no housekeeper" lol  it reminds me of that old 80's sitcom with Tony Danza (I don't know the original title) where Tony was the housekeeper of Angela ^^ she had nothing else to do after  her  day's work than relax on the couch and wait for diner ^^ with a handsome & sexy man doing the cooking for her XD

I tried very hard to keep connected to internet, I really did ! But after 6 months my boyfriend proposed me (finally !) and then, since early 2007, time has passed soooooooooooo fast !! Preparing a wedding is a full time job... you start with the guests lists, then we did the invitations ourselves, then have to order all the stuff that needs preparation (sugared almonds, wedding cake...), shopping for the dress and costume, maid of honnor dress, all the decoration, the table ornaments, downloading the music because a live-band is too expensive ^^, going round and round for the food and alcohol and champagne, then you have to find someone to take pictures and someone else to record the video, then plan the tables and place peoples so that it's not a mess during diner, then before THE day, instead of relaxing you have to go and prepare the dining room, place decorations and ornaments, balloons, flowers, prepare the music and mics for the speeches, champagne glasses, prepare the homemade cocktail for all the guests... luckily the friends who helped us during the previous night did a good job and we were able to go to sleep for a few hours while they kept working on the final preparations during nighttime ^^ THE day was perfect, with so much preparation I made sure nothing was forgotten and I had nothing else to do on D-Day except having fun ^^ I got pretty drunk and smashed my knee from dancing too much! I swear that the nuptial night, I mean the night after wedding, is NOT so romantic and exceptionnal at all !! It's only a myth!! You get sooooo exhausted from preparations stress, and so physically beat by the party that when you see a bed, there's no doubt about what you have to do in it ; sleep !!! hahaha!! When we got home I fell pathetically on the bed and started to snore ^^ what a wedding night... I couldn't muster the strength to move before 2 days !! The honeymoon is really the best way to get your strenghts back slowly after the anti-climax... By the way, we got married on 07/07/07 ^^ not for superstition, more because we're both fans of X-1999 lol


So, now the wedding's done, I feel like being reborn ! I was so obsessed with the word 'wedding' during such a long time, that now I feel like I'm rediscovering my old hobbies; mangas, animes, TV dramas, yaoi ^^  it's strange, but it really feels like being free after a short time in jail ^^ I want to use my new energy to create stuff, I'm in a creative mood ^0^ But first of all I want to find back some long-lost contacts with the people who used to write to onamichan's hotmail adress, because I lost all the emails after hotmail erased my account a few time ago (I hate live-hotmail!!!!) and then I got a major computer crash and lost everything (but I'm quite used to that ^^ I make regular saves of my website :p not the first time my hard disk plays fool on me!)... I need some files to be re-sent to me again...
Anyway, the only intention of this post was;  I'm now a married onami ^^ and I'm back.

Here's a picture of D-Day ^^ I had eye-circles from lack of sleep lol

moving on

July 12th, 2006 (10:41 am)

I'm moving at long laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaast ^_____^
I've been packing up  every evening since 2 weeks pfiou... 
it's funny to rummage through the very old  stuff I haven't touched in years... like ; whole a collection of dragonball eps videotapes lol sailormoons in raw japanese, old printings of X 1999 prepublication chapters and their translations, tons of fanfics I printed and I'll never be able to find again on the web ^^ so nostalgic...
There are tons of things I know perfectly I should throw away, but I'm too clingy I guess...
People use to do those kind of neigborhood clearance sale, where you sell off your old attic bazaar... if I was to do that, it would be a yaoi clearance sale ^^; I've digged up tons of be-boy comics & be-boy zips, yaoi rami cards and other misceanellous stuff that I cannot decently keep on my shelves, nor can I throw them away...  I was amazed at the quantity lol   my boyfriend's gonna make a fuss when he sees me bringing more cartons of manga than of clothes (not even mentionning the videotapes!!).
Anyway, the packing is kinda funny & a bit nostalgic in a way (did I really ever wear this Angelic Layer cosplay???) but the harder is to come; I'll have to be cut off from my intraveinous internet ...
after that are holidays so I'll get the deserved rest ^^

Are you a real otaku or a fake otaku?

I found this translation on an animation forum (Kaizoku Fansubs, BTW ^^);

From May 12 Mainichi Daily News

Self-professed 'real otaku' rips into 'moe' fetish fakers

One of Japan's most prominent woman manga artists has lashed out at the country's burgeoning otaku culture, saying that those now proudly boasting of being geeks are little more than pedophiles, perverts and losers, according to Shukan Bunshun (5/18).

Mimei Sakamoto, a multitalented manga artist whose "Nippon no Mimei" is a must-read for all hip young Japanese, rips into the otaku, whose geek culture has moved into the mainstream courtesy of the business of "moe," a word that literally translates as "gushing" and describes the warm feeling the otaku get when they see something they like.

"Perhaps it's because 'Train Man' (the story of an otaku who wins the heart of a pretty woman) was such a hit, but recently I've seen all these dorky guys walking around in thick glasses and checkered shirts and it pains my heart to think that they may be hoping to meet some pretty girl who's going to fall in love with them. Sorry guys, the chances of that happening are zero," Sakamoto tells Shukan Bunshun.

Sakamoto goes on to lambaste the otaku tendencies to idolize young girls and women wearing spectacles.

"This fetish you call 'moe' is a pedophiliac fetish and is nothing more than perversion. It's not really something you should be gushing over," the manga artist says, addressing the otaku. "In other countries, they'd call what you're fantasizing over 'child pornography' and you'd all be arrested. I'm ashamed that these 'otaku' who are perpetual criminals have entered the mainstream and started an otaku boom."

Sakamoto continues, saying that those now regarded as otaku really aren't geeks at all.

"All the world is going around talking about maid cafes and stuff and making these so-called otaku look good. But people must realize that these guys are simply men incapable of recognizing reality and are incapable of being in a normal loving relationship. I can't stop crying over the fact that these people have been labeled as otaku and that we are now going through an otaku boom," she tells Shukan Bunshun.

The manga artist also points out that sharp marketers are also suckering the ersatz otaku.

"There's a tendency in the otaku market to avoid producing contents that are going to sell in terms of millions or tens of millions. Instead, they find a semi-hit then bring out figurines, DVD box sets, premium editions and all sorts of related materials that are drastically over-wrapped and sell to the same people who bought the original product in the first place," the manga artist says. "So-called otaku are caught up in this money making cycle and all they're doing is spending their hard-earned yen (which often comes from their parents in a lot of cases). And, what's really sad, is that loads of these gullible suckers don't even realize that they're being taken for a ride."

Sakamoto claims to have street credibility.

"I'm a fully-fledged otaku. I used to shut myself away from the world. A real otaku would never go out and about in the world because they wouldn't believe anything good could happen to them if they did so, anyway. They all believe the world is out to get them," Sakamoto tells Shukan Bunshun. "Real otaku should go back and shut yourselves off from the world again. The true value of being a real otaku lay in the belief that nobody else understands you." (By Ryann Connell)

So, are you a real or a fake otaku?
I was a little shocked by her aggressiveness towards what she calls fake otakus, and I don't really think what she calls being a true otaku should be something to be proud of...
Read one of her comic page in Times Asia, in english here.

Brokeback Mountain

February 4th, 2006 (10:15 am)

I loved that movie so much... even though I really dislike cow boys :p with that southern accent and country music eeeeeeek !!! The actors are so good that they'd really make you believe they've been cowboys all their lives!!
I won't make a long analysis of the movie, since it's a big success everywhere I believe (at least, in France it has success and it also won an award so...). It's just so nice that a movie focusing on a homosexual love story has so much success! But then again, this story goes beyond homosexuality, it simply deals with impossible love... haaaa, Jack Twist....

Bronze ramblings [major spoilers of Bronze 14!!]

This is an answer to ; http://www.livejournal.com/users/hyluko/5624.html

For my part, when I read that violent rape scene, I was (as everyone, I guess) very shocked, especially by the moment when Kôji throws their rings in the toilet... But then, I started quickly to think that Kôji was doing this in order to 'wake up' Izumi. It was obvious that Izumi wasn't himself since the accident right? He was aware of it himself, of being too dependant on Kôji...
I still think that Kôji was not very clever to pretend such a betrayal (he hurt Izumi very very badly... that should be unforgivable ^^) but maybe it was necessary, to give him a big shock (you know, like the therapy by the snakes).

I feel like being the only human being working on a day off.... Today is national holiday, everyone's enjoying the warmth of their beds, or having a long weekend trip... except me ;__;
the only soul who wakes up much too early and goes to the office...
on my way I meet some of my alikes, snoozing in the metro... I walk pass the subway tickets seller and find the employee sitting behind her speaker's grill as every morning... Reaching the bakery to buy a croissant to go with the triple-expresso that should get my head out off my ass, I find the usual lady serving me as always...
it does look like everyday after all... except that the neighborhood is so calm, as if it was the day after tomorrow...
I feel so blue... Bronze will be ending again soon...
