I slept like a baby. - I woke up every other hour and cried. =/
No seriously, I slept really well. It’s being awake that I can’t stand when I’m sick. Today I’m still feverish and achy, but I can’t stay in bed all day long because it’s driving me insane. So I thought I’d write a quick blog post before I go back to bed and continue watching TV.
Thanks, btw, for all your nice comments, although I must say I’m quite shocked how some people treat you when you’re sick. One person was hitting on me (”do you need a backrub?”)! So shameless. D: One other person threw a box of tissues at me. IT HIT ME ON THE HEAD!!! *cries*
Oh well.Thanks anyway, I guess.
Okay, back to your regular scheduled program. This isn’t Johnny’s related, so if this bores you I’m sorry, and if it broadens your horizon you’re welcome.
Attitude
The X Factor 2009 auditions came to an end last Sunday, and I would be somewhat disappointed at the rather small amount of young people who made it through to the next round, if it weren’t for the very last audition they showed on Sunday night.
This is 16-year-old Cur’is. I think his name might actually be Curtis, but he himself pronounces it Cur’is, so who am I to argue with that? And no, I’m not making fun of the way he speaks, I just think it’s very cute. And so is he. So anyway, here’s his audition.
Okay, somebody obviously DOES have a major attitude problem here, BUT IT’S NOT THE BOY!!! Jeez. >_>
When Cur’is entered the stage he seemed like a perfectly nice and humble young man. Maybe a little cheeky, a little boisterous, but FYI it’s called a personality. Simon Cowell just got pissed off because somebody dared to give stupid answers to his stupid questions, except the answers weren’t even that stupid. Only the questions were. Knock it off, Simon, you’re not his dad. You got a major talent there, and you know it! XP
Go Cur’is!
I guess that’s it from me today. I’m gonna have lunch in an hour, then a hot bubble bath, then a lot of medication, and then I’ll probably fall asleep while watching TV.
Good night.

Little update on the October Shonen Clubs. Unlike previously announced Hey!Say!7 will guest star only in the October 11 SC. In the October 4 SC the guests will be NYC boys. >_> NYC will be the opening song, and later on Yamada will perform Asia no yoru, Chinen will perform You & You, and NYC boys will perform Dial Up.
Interesting fact: the official SC website lists Chinen’s song as 『You(裕)&You(侑)』. The kanji are of course taken from Yuto’s and Chinen’s first names, and it’s supposed to be their song, as in: the two of them together. So why is Chinen performing it on his own while Yuto is sitting backstage? I don’t want to appear too paranoid, but it’s difficult NOT to think that somebody is actively trying to keep Yuto off TV. =[
Anyway, later in the show Butoukan will perform a Now and forever / Grateful World medley, and Kis-My-Ft2 will present their new song Ame. There will be a segment when we’ll see pictures of the A.B.C. guys when they were very young (as in: little kids), and the Juniors will perform Dancing Queen.
Now that better be the ABBA song, and not some other song that just happens to have the same name. But apparently Masuda, Jesse, Anderson and Sharufu performed Dancing Queen at the Johnny’s Jr. concert in August, and supposedly it was indeed the ABBA song, so yeah. Looking forward to that.
On the October 11 SC Hey!Say!7 will perform Nounai Dance and Mayonaka no Shadow Boy.
Apparently there will be a classical number with Juniors playing the piano. I have no idea what that is all about, but it sure sounds intriguing.
Morimoto Shintaro with Snow Prince Kasshoudan will once again perform a Bitter Moon medley, there will be a Question? medley and an A.B.C. medley, and of course the Kis-My-Ft2 wo abake.
At the end the Juniors will be joined by Koyama and Nakamaru for the Can Do!Can go!~REAL DX ending song.
So yeah, lots of stuff to look forward to, although I must say that I don’t really want to see NYC boys anymore. Not if I could have Hey!Say!7 and B.I.Shadow instead. =/
In other news, the first episode of the HSJ: Listen to Us Rant podcast is up. You can download it or listen to it online here, or if you have the Johnny’s Community Toolbar you can listen to it on the toolbar’s radio. I added it to all toolbars, not only the HSJ one, because I thought it’d be nice if the other fandoms saw how awesome and creative HSJ fans are. And maybe it will even motivate them to come up with their own podcasts one day, wouldn’t that be great? Yes it would.
And finally, I think I’m coming down with something. I’m getting a cold. I just hope it’s not the swine flu. So I guess it’s chicken soup and hot bubble baths for me today. Sorry if I can’t reply to your comments today, but I feel really crappy. =/
