| | Title ripped off from Ayu's song, JEWEL, and it's totally relevant to this post, btw. XDD You'll see.

Even under the grey, square sky, that is filled with all too many kinds of unhealthy desires, I still don't lose sight of the light among them - these dreams -, because you always show me that there remains a purity, even within the darkness of this city.

And that's my interpretation of the first verses of the song, taken out of its poetic form and put into a nice paragraph. XDD

Autumn '07
Ayu appeared in "au MUSIC FIESTA" as a guest yesterday, and prized as one of the most fashionable artists in Japan, her attire confirmed Autumn '07's trends to be leaning on the semi-boyish side. (After all, you can't trust anything until Ayu says so. XDD)
Images are the following:
She's even cut her hair short like a month ago. Although I thought her hair looked better all short and flowy, rather than with these stiff curls.
I'm just saying this though, because I saw a few articles on this soon-to-hit boyish or manly look (it hasn't quite yet, since Ayu leads all the time) and I didn't quite believe it until I saw AYU doing it. I just thought that it was interesting; what does it show? It shows that Ayu rules the world of course. =DD
Not that I'm going to cut my hair short or anything. I'm *always* manly anyway. I can always be a hippie guy with a mind living back in the 70's and and long swinging hair. XDD
The point of this post is to prove that Ayu is awesome, just because.

All right, now, away from the fuss on what will be in the HK fashion magazines (that are very slow on the uptake of these things) next week, I shall whiz back into reality.
Which, actually, isn't very real.
In English today, we had to write a short piece, asking "If you could go back in time, *any* time, when and where would you go back to?" That was pretty much the question (although I can't actually remember the wording of it), and people were choosing things like "wanna go back to the 80's, so cool back then man" and "wanna go back to the 70's, awesome music man", or other exotic things like dinosaurs, the moment you were born, reliving summer holidays, etcetra.
Hahaha, and you can so NEVER guess what *I* picked. XDD (Cal got it on his first guess, lol.)
I want to go back to Christmas 2006, and watch the surprise live performance of the song JEWEL by Ayumi Hamasaki in Universal Studios, Osaka.
There are many reasons why I chose this particular live, and one of them is the fact that I have also freaking BEEN to the Universal Studios that exact freaking year and Ayu performed there?!?!?! *utter shock and disappointment* If ONLY I was there during Christmas!!
Also, this live was for free, you see, people didn't need to PAY to watch it, it was only for those that happened to be so damn lucky and coincidentally BE there. The video of the performance showed all the bubbling excitement of people running towards the performance all surprised and giddy. But who wouldn't BE excited? Ayu's concerts and performances always sell out in three hours, all the damn time (AND, those in the Japan-residents-only Ayu Fanclub get a first priority. T__T). This performance for those lucky bastards who happened to be there, was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!!
The people were so happy. The camera pans across the audience a bit and they show some couples all happy and stuff; they're celebrating Christmas night in Universal Studios (good choice, it's a really brilliantly pretty place), they're already very happy, and then they get this huge surprise present-- a live performance from Ayu.
Man, I would kill to watch one of those. Even before I saw the video clip of this performance, I'd imagined how AWESOME it simply would be, to watch Ayu perform JEWEL on CHRISTMAS DAY, and to add to the effect, it should be outdoors and SNOWING. If it starts snowing in the middle of the performance, _even better_.
Towards the end of the video, you get to see a woman in the audience with watery eyes, watching Ayu finish off her song with a smile; oh gawd, she was so touched-- I was too, and I wasn't even there. XDD
So, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity; free of charge; great performance-- enough to make you cry; romantic; Ayu; Ayu in a santa GOWN with awesome hair and all; JEWEL; Universal Studios, Osaka; outdoor; Christmas, christmas, christmas; cold but warm on the inside (gawd I LOVE that feeling, it's like drinking warm soup on a cold day, or hot chocolate, if you like (milk tea for me though)); big, happy crowd who are all very supportive and happy to watch Ayu...
... the list of Why This Live Is Awesome can go on and on and on. And this awesomeness is just the reason why I really want to go back to watch it, I was not the least bit half-assed when I answered the question!
And, you know, having to revise for the iGCSE mock exams over Christmas this year just plain sucks. T____T It makes me wanna watch Ayu live even more...
That rounds up what I wrote for English. XDD
