Thoughts Inspired by Hiroto

I am supposed to be going to bed right now, but I wanted to write about Hiroto-san again.

I was reading more of his old posts and found this one: click

It made me think: People who inspire other people the most; do they realize what an impact they have?

I think it's impossible for him to know that there's little old me over here, clinging onto his every word, and finding extreme inspiration in them. But, he does seem to believe that our energy can reach him, so maybe he somehow does.

He doesn't need to worry about people finding inspiration in him and A9. I know for a fact it's true.

Even if A9 is just a passing phase in my musical lifetime, it's okay. Because I've loved every phase, I'll love this one as well. The things I've learned from the people I respect, I can't forget.

Sharing Musical Tastes With Dad

I played some music from my collection today for Dad. He doesn't really like any of the new artists that I'm listening to (new to me). He didn't like Takeru's voice and he didn't seem to like Girugamesh either. (X_X) But, he didn't mind Ayumi Hamaski. (<_<)

Ayumi Hamasaki has a short movie out called Distance Love (Kyo Ai). I watched it on Crunchyroll and thought it was pretty good. It basically consists of two music videos with some scenes in between.

Here is the second "music video"/ending scene:



It's basically the usual forbidden love theme. I think the guy is Chinese though, so that introduces a racial barrier, etc... The same thing I've been picturing with Hiroto for the last week. (x_x)

Then there is Girugamesh. They have some GREAT songs, I think. Dad didn't hear anything special though. What's interesting about Girugamesh is that they only have one guitarist. LOL~ So that means there's only four members (there's usually five: vocals, drums, bass, and two guitars).

Here's their music video for Owari to Mirai:



Other songs of theirs I like are: Domino and Shining

Tech Support Isn't All Bad

Mom insisted that we call Norton and get the issue fixed. She said this before I finished eating breakfast, which pissed me off, but I guess it worked out.

The guy on the phone actually knew what he was doing and was able to fix the problem. He downloaded two things from the Norton site via the remote access client:

1. Something to remove the old version of Norton.
   
2. The 2008 version of Norton Internet Security.
   

Once the new one was installed, he keyed in the code from the old one (product key I think?) and it fetched our 200-something remaining days!

I am really glad it's fixed and I take back what I said about Norton before. They're not all bad. BUT, whatever you do, DO NOT use their chat thing. I don't take that back. LOL~

Thanks to whoever made it, I don't know.

Ren + Nana

Here are all of the videos of Nana + Ren. I thought it would be good to mark them here since I don't want them on my public favorites page. (<_<) I'm bad~ ROTFLOL.



I will add more as I find/watch them.

Here is the part with the cake:

The Phantom of Guilt

This is a song by X-Japan called The Phantom of Guilt. It's a pretty good song, I think Dad would like it.

I'm here waiting for you!

I watch some of the NANA anime yesterday. I think it's better than the movie, but only because the story flow and lines are better. Of course, the line part could be due to poor translation. While watching, I heard the ending theme for the anime. It's called A Little Bit of Pain by Olivia. It's actually pretty good. Here's a clip of the Anime with the music. Really pretty.



With animes, it's easier to pretend you're the characters. Like, as I'm watching, I'll pretend the guitarist is Wonbin or Tora or Hiroto and I'll be Nana (black hair). It's so fun! It's harder with real actors for some reason. (^_^)

In the NANA movie, they should have playing A Little Bit of Pain instead of the other song they played. This one seems to really fit because you can hear the "I'm here waiting for you" part and it really fits with the storyline.

I put this song in my romantic "fighting for love" playlist. Me + Shou this edition. I guess I'm taking a break from Wonbin. LOL~ I still love that boy though. *sigh*

Here's the really romantic scene from episode 18 where Ren and Nana meet again.



Anime kisses are awkward! LOL~
