Sugar Rushes on Suday[ 23:34 ]
Week Ending 30 March
☆ BILL'S RECOVERY! :) That definitely brightens up my day. It can pretty well brighten up my whole freaking week. And I'm pretty sure my happiness and relief can generate enough energy to power a small country. Haha, I exaggerate. But really, he went through the operation today successfully, and the doctor said that he'll be fine. Currently, he's still resting at home. And the sweetest thing is Tomi cooking for him, waiting on him, not exactly hand and foot, but still, joy. It's also seriously funny that Tom's the only one yakking his head off because Bill's in no position to speak. In fact, it was so bad, Tom's yakking, that Bill actually wrote, 'Shut your fuckin' mouth' with eyeliner. D: Dead, Bill, you totally killed me. Seriously man, ILY so much. And yes, I have like become an utter rabid fangirl. My life's complete now.
☆ Tsubasa RESERVoir Chronicles I know, it's pretty old and all already, but I stumbled onto pretty pretty pretty KuroxFai fanart and icons which are so damn pretty. But still, I don't really like Sakura... But I love Fai, he's the perfect ebil, scheming uke. And Kuro's the grumpiest seme to grace the anime world.
☆ Livejournal Okay, I got both my accounts at livejournal settled. Yes, it's finalized, I'm shifting to LJ officially on my new account because LJ is fucked in the sense that it has stopped all set up of basic accounts, forcing us to choose between plus and paid accounts. So, ravenxeve which is a basic account will remain untouched, while rxe_lyn is my new plus account. Yeah, I'll need people to relink me and all. More details later. :)
☆ Portfolio Yay, I got my portfolio done for the CAP thing. :) It feels nice to have a portfolio, like some professional writer which I'm not, haha. Yeah, it's entirely in poems because I frankly have never finished a prose piece on my own. I'm always too ambitious and lazy.
☆ Sweeney Todd soundtrack Yeah, just downloaded this recently. The songs are just so great, and I don't think I can pick out my favourites due to the awesomeness of this soundtrack.
☆ The Light-Bearer's Daughter by O.R.Melling Just borrowed it from the library, I haven't exactly read it yet, but I know I'm going to love it. I mean, a story about the Fae folk incorporated in contemporary times, how can't I not love it? Her previous two books were brilliant as well, so I have high hopes for this third story in the series.
How much do you think it costs to send a post card over to Germany?
Th_Cult over at LJ had this suggestion that we all send post cards to Bill, wishing him a speedy recovery. The poor boy! He apparently needs to undergo vocal cord surgery; there was a cyst on his vocal cords. If the surgery fails, he probably won't be able to sing ever again, which is devastating for a singer, I know I would be damn miserable.
Yeah... I want him to get well soon! Not that I'm exactly affected, but all of their concerts were cancelled, which meant that several areas were hit, almost half of North America, and Europe. So, the whole post card thing was like, 'Hey, since you couldn't come over to see us, we'll just sort of go to you then.' but really, I think Bill will be so touched by the post cards, it's just sweet and very well meaning.
Anyway, corny title comes from the English version of 1000 Meere. Yeah, I so prefer the original version.
In other news, I may just be flunking my first Literature test. Hooray, NOT. Blah, I didn't study, I know, my fault, but... seriously it's upon 50, and the passing grade is 40. How the hell am I expected to pass?!
Please get well soon, Bill. *heart breaks* I can't stand the thought of him all alone in bed and suffering. It's really bad, laryngitis. I mean, I have never gotten it, but even a sore throat is agony, not to imagine something even worse. And bb is a singer after all, losing his voice is so much a harder blow.
Bill is very disheartened: "For a singer the worst thing that could happen is to stand in front of a sold out hall and to know that you can´t sing your songs and that thousands of fans will be disappointed."
It's really sad that he's ill and all, but Tomi, dear, it's not the time to care if the fans get mad for canceling the shows! Isn't Bill's health the more important issue at hand here?! And if there are such unreasonable and bitchy fans out there, they can fuck off. And find some other lame arse band to moon over.
And here's a quick translation, obviously NOT done by me, because since when can I speak German?
"Because of this award show we sat down and thought about the last 2 years. And I made some notes: Well, we have four good reasons for not getting kids. And my cute little brother in the way too big trousers fucked 25 girls in the first week we released "Durch den Monsun". After that we got drunk with child protective service and were not allowed back into most hotels. And yeah, there was also some Grandpa shooting around. And we were chased by the army. After that I put on some eyeliner and went online, telling what a big fag I really am. And yeah, then I almost died because of anorexia. And yet we are here!"
Bill, my boy, you have just increased my love for you. ♥ This speech is just FTW, and soooo very correct. Basically, he had just taken all the stupid rumors that have been surrounding the band and sarcastically put it out in the speech. This is one speech no one will forget for quite some time.
Their entrance was way cool too, what with all that music and the formally dressed crowd while in contrast, the boys are way underdressed. Or in Bill's case, dressed for the wrong occasion. While the rest of them... look as if they were going to the movies.
The 4 big rumors?
[1] That Tommie is a playa. Okay, this has been like a long running gag for the boys, so yeah. Whether he has really slept with that many people is sort of debatable. But seriously, no one actually believes him.
[2] Apparently they got trashed after a major gig and well... trashed the hotel rooms. Afterwards, the hotel said that the management mixed TH up with other people, so.... yeah, they didn't trash no hotel rooms.
[3] The next big rumor to hit was that Bill and Tom were to be drafted into the army. Georg and Gustav had valid reasons hence they were not drafted back when it was their time. Georg is 2 years older while Gustav is 1 year older than the twins.
[4] That Bill is gay? Oh I so wish. But... it's not true. Someone posted it on the internet during the night of the twins's birthday and then there was this rumour about Bill writing it himself when he was drunk...
Gods, Bill is my god. <3 How can I not love him, with his dear raccoon eyes and hedgehog hair? That was a rhetorical question anyway. And his voice. Oh, god. Even though I don't understand the lyrics to the songs without translations, one can still feel the emotions he's trying to portray within. And I did pick up some German after listening to their songs. The themes to their songs can be cliche, but he manages to bring out the feelings of the song, hence I love him more.
How do I love thee, let me count the ways. And I just warped this quote. Heh. But anyway, he's waaaaaay out of my league. Cos he's in Germany, and tours extensively in Europe. And America soon. And I happen to live in measly Singapore which is in Asia. And even if Tokio Hotel tours in Asia, the chances of them coming to Singapore is as slim as the chances of me dropping 10 kg. Blah. Well, at least I can dream...
PS. I think I just butchered the German language trying to learn to sing this song. As well as other TH songs. Blah. Anyone wanna teach me German?
Okay, even though Bill and Tom had their birthday on 1st September, this was only posted yesterday... So... I guess, it's a happy belated birthday post, from this fan here.

Hamburg. finally 18! Bill and Tom Kaulitz of Germany's most successful rock band Tokio Hotel have been throwing a hot secret party for their 18th birthday- in a cool bar made out of ice...
The twins have been inviting 50 hand-picked guests to the "Indochine" in Hamburg- there was a Thai buffet with chicken, beef and fruit at the chocolate-fountain.
"We've been renting out this room and celebrating directly into our birthday", says Tom. "Right next to us there was this bar that was made entirely out of ice. we were celebrating in there at -5 degrees (Celsius) exactly at midnight with vodka and champagne."
The alcohol continued to flow until 5 am.
Tom grins: "that's why we've been drinking a lot less in the last couple of months than usually. I guess we've grown out of that."
Bill laughs: "Now that we're 18, we don't have to make people believe our vodka drinks are indeed apple juice at parties."
Their biggest wish: driver's license.
Tom: "I really wanna finally have sex in my own car."
Gee... Tom tries to sound like some sort of a player. >.> Try harder, Tommie. Lol.
^ Pinstripes... Normally, this would look bad, as terrible as a disaster, but when Bill's wearing it? I just wanna jump him. Heh.
Purple gloves! Lol. They don't really look 18. I just feel like handing them a cookie or something, even though they're like older than me... >.>
Tokio Hotel is first! Best band in the world. Or at least the band with the most number of devoted fans. And I'm one of them. I began voting since I first caught wind of the competition from a TH community and that was in May, I think... and the voting ended last night July 20... heh.
Meine augen schaun mich müde an und finden keinen trost Ich kann mich nich' mehr mit anseh'n - Bin ichlos Alles was hier mal war - Kann ich nich' mehr in mir finden Alles weg - Wie im wahn Seh ich mich immer mehr verschwinden My eyes are looking at me tiredly, never taking comfort. I cannot face myself no more - am disposed Everything that has been here once - I can't find it in myself anymore. Everything's gone like in delusion Seeing myself vanishing more and more
Ich bin nich' ich wenn du nich' bei mir bist - Bin ich allein Und das was jetzt noch von mir übrig ist - Will ich nich' sein Draußen hängt der himmel schief Und an der wand dein abschiedsbrief Ich bin nich' ich wenn du nich' bei mir bist - Bin ich allein I'm not me when you are not with me - then I'm alone. And everything that's still left of me - I don't wanna be that anymore. Outside the heaven hangs aslope And on the wall your good-bye letter. I'm not me when you are not with me - then I'm alone.
Ich weiß nich' mehr, wer ich bin - Und was noch wichtig ist Das ist alles irgendwo, wo du bist Ohne dich durch die nacht - Ich kann nichts mehr in mir finden Was hast du mit mir gemacht? Ich seh mich immer mehr verschwinden I don't know who I am anymore - And what's still important That is everything, somewhere where you are. Without you through the night, I can't find anything inside me. What have you done with me? I see myself vanishing more and more.
Ich bin nich' ich wenn du nich' bei mir bist - Bin ich allein Und das was jetzt noch von mir übrig ist - Will ich nich' sein Draußen hängt der himmel schief Und an der wand dein abschiedsbrief Ich bin nich' ich wenn du nich' bei mir bist - Will ich nicht mehr sein I'm not me when you are not with me - then I'm alone. And everything that's still left of me - I don't wanna be that anymore. Outside the heaven hangs aslope And on the wall your good-bye letter. I'm not me when you are not with me - I don't wanna be that anymore. Ich lös mich langsam auf Halt mich nich' mehr aus Ich krieg dich einfach nich' mehr aus mir raus Egal wo du bist - Komm und rette mich I'm slowly disintegrating Don't keep detaining me I cannot get you out of me again. No matter where you are - come and rescue me.
Ich bin nich' ich wenn du nicht bei mir bist - Bin ich allein Und das was jetzt noch von mir übrig ist - Will ich nich' sein Draußen hängt der himmel schief Und an der wand dein abschiedsbrief Ich bin nich' ich wenn du nich' bei mir bist - Will ich nicht mehr sein I'm not me when you are not with me - then I'm alone. And everything that's still left of me - I don't wanna be that anymore. Outside the heaven hangs aslope And on the wall your good-bye letter. I'm not me when you are not with me - I don't wanna be that anymore. Will ich nicht mehr sein Will ich nicht mehr sein I don't wanna be that anymore. I don't wanna be that anymore.
Tokio Hotel. They rock my world. For now. Yeah. Endure my madness and obsession. Bill Kaulitz has stolen my heart from the clutches of Miyavi and Diru.
Tokio Hotel is currently my newest obsession. Don't ask me what's with me and foreign bands, I just heart them. First was all the jrock and visual kei, next came french band, Kyo, and now, I am totally, completely, absolutely, unabashedly smitten, taken, obsessed, enamored with Tokio Hotel.
Of course, my attention is captured by the charismatic lead singer, Bill Kaulitz who apparently looks real fine with eyeliner, piercings, tattoos and a shock of wild mane that rivals jrock style. And the fact that he has a twin, Tom doesn't hurt. I love his accessories, man, I wish I could just have his necklaces, the skull choker, and the fang necklace.
Darn, I have to go now... guess I have to update later.
