*^-^* my TOMA BDAY celebration♥ + Genji review + KOI NANKA HAJIMARANAI manga♡ + random pics!! ~.~





SUNFLOWER (of course i had to get it, cuz of toma's new drama!! ^.^) and autumn leaves window decals!!!! i love these!!! it makes it feel more like fall. ~_~ i stuck them on my bedroom window. hehe...

ok, this is super late, but here's how i celebrated toma's bday! ^_^ 
also, a mini-review of the Genji movie. and my shoujo manga recommendation: koi nanka hajimaranai!! and LOTS OF PICS!! xD


on toma's birthday, i fangirled with other toma fans at twitter, ate some Pocky, ate curry for lunch, and went to book-off to buy manga (mostly koi nanka hajimaranai~). *__*


.....here's some other special things i got to do in the next few days:
--on oct.7, there were some special new halloween episodes of Good Luck Charlie and Austin and Ally. yey!! ^^ not toma-related, but i thought it was cool that it aired on oct.7 (oct.7 in my timezone, which is oct.8 JST, but still!! xD)

--i watched TFGirls' subbed Another Sky. ~__~
-- i watched Genji Monogatari!! ^_^ v
well, like half of the movie, since half of it was about the other guy (too lazy 2 look up his name, but he's toma's senpai). xD no subs, but i could tell what was going on, in general.
TOMA'S VOICE IS SO~ NICE!!!! <3 that was what i first noticed. i think cuz i like hearing his soft-spoken, serious voice??? 
it was a good movie!! toma's genji is a handsome guy that seems to truly love all the different women he goes out with. or, more like, stays in with. lol. the love scenes were pretty good. not too sexy, not that awkward. except there was 1 kissing scene that i thought was weird!! xD the special effects were awesome, too!! but this movie was SO QUIET. toma's acting was great and he looked gorgeous, as expected, but i didn't like how they made toma and everyone look so pale. >_< but the clothes and scenary were beautiful. a lot of pretty imagery... i'll watch it again when the subs are released! :D


and here's some pics from before, during,
and after toma's birthday, some toma birthday related, and some are random. xD

this is from sept., actually. behind the 2 manga books is an ad for an autumn tour of tohoku! ~_~
that's when i 1st found out about this manga (that's volume 2 in this pic)....<3


I LOVE THIS MANGA!!!♡♡♡♡ kanna and makoto are a super cute couple!!! <3 
the art style is really pretty and cute, too. i'm so glad i randomly picked it up at book-off. it's called koi nanka hajimaranai (love won't begin). i love it so much, i later looked for and bought almost every volume (can't find vol.1! =T)!! but the thing is, it's not completely scanlated yet. but new chapters are coming later this year!! yey!! you can read it here (and also at mangafox and other major manga sites). i know the summary sounds like a typical manga love story, but just try reading it, i think you'll like it!! ~___~

anyone that has known me for a while knows that i love smoothies. haha. and i usually celebrate anything by getting a smoothie! i got 2 this time, from jamba juice!! yummy~~ xD

P1220834
i also got some (chocolate almond crunch + strawberry heart-shaped!) pocky
and this hawaii brand juice drink, strawberry lilikoi. 
P1220865 
curry at a small japanese/chinese fusion restaurant where the staff and customers were all talking in japanese. i think this is more of a chinese style curry though. =T it tasted ok...

it's getting cold at night, so i bought these cute blue knit cut-off/mitten gloves!!
and that's my book-off bag. hehe.


there was a lovely pink-ish sunset on toma's bday!! ~___~


koi nanka hajimaranai, volumes 3-7!! xD 
i will try 2 find vol. 1 next time i get a chance 2 go to book-off...
maybe i'll ask the kinda cute guy that works there. his name is toma (but his name card says thomas)!! ^_~



thanks to the cute and colorful font on the spine of the koi nanka volumes, i noticed it on the shelf!!


i got some other sexy manga...xD


didn't buy these, but the covers are pretty!! i love the 2nd one, with the couple standing under the moon (i love the moon/moonlight!! ~__~ my real name means moon. i'm a little obsessed with the moon... xD). 


during the days after toma's bday, it often rained/was cloudy in the morning, then the rest of the day was nice and breezy (cool), with lovely white puffy clouds like this! i think here, it often rains around toma's bday...


i prefer jamba juice, but i like smoothies/slushies from places like Lollicup too! this pretty pink drink is a strawberry/lychee slush, with jelly. hehe...

i am reading koi nanka hajimaranai kate.. it's interesting XD i think i'll read it whenever i find the time ^^ thank you <3 it reminds me of this korean drama called Playful Kiss(itazura no kiss in jdrama i guess) actually..it was one of the first dramas i watched :) but i think the story will change as it goes :)

yey!!!! ~_~ i'm glad at least one person tried reading it. hehe.
oh wow. i just looked up that drama and the story is very similar! xD i love reading about couples that for some reason, live together and start falling in love with each other. hehe...^^

i read close to 2 volumes the day i started it kate :O it's kinda addictive xD i'm not really getting the time to read it now but i'm sure i'll read it during the weekend :)
haha and even though it's annoying sometimes that they portray the girl as being too dense and it takes forever for them to confess their feelings, you just can't stop reading xD

[identity profile] kate-firefly.livejournal.com 2012-10-31 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
really?? omg!! :D yeahhhh. it is totally addictive!!! i told myself 2 read it little by little, but i still ended up reading up to volume 5!! O_O i managed 2 save ch.19 for later though. it's the last scanlated ch., for now. =(

yes yes, read it during the weekend. try not 2 read too fast, like me. xD

omg, she can be very annoying, i know. =P always crying and misunderstanding stuff. yessss! the official confession took so long 2 get to. lol. there's some annoying things about the manga, but it's still so cute and i really love it. heehee.

[identity profile] kavya-kvb.livejournal.com 2012-11-03 06:29 pm (UTC)(link)
omg i need to take it slowly so the chapters get scanlated completely or else it would KILL me to wait :D
yup yup that's why i'm still reading it haha :D atleast unlike Playful Kiss, the guy is not a complete jerk here and it's sweet how he takes care of her in his own way :)

[identity profile] kate-firefly.livejournal.com 2012-11-03 11:10 pm (UTC)(link)
yeahhh. xD
yes, i really like kanna!! even though he teases her a lot, but he's such a sweet boyfriend and he does try to make her happy. he's just so cute too. <3
