eh..??well I know that everybody is entitled to it's own opinion and it's ok not to like the song. Most of us here, however, thinks that Daybreak's Bell kicks ass!!! soo each to our own.

How can you not like this song? I mean the bassline alone is enough to blow me away. It has amazing rythms, and arrangements of bass/drums are just :cool:

YUKKISS '97~07 PROJECT
L'Arc~en~Ciel Global Fan Organization
****
Yukihiro san officially joined L'Arc~en~Ciel on 1998, January 1st.
This coming New Year's Day marks his 10th anniversary as a member of L'Arc~en~Ciel. However, in our minds, he has already became a member of the band when he stood on the stage of Tokyo Dome together with Hyde, Ken and Tetsu on 1997/12/23, the day of Reincarnation.

This year on 12/23, L'Arc~en~Ciel is having their 2nd live concert of the tour "KISS". On this special day, we want to gather messages from oversea fans to show him our deepest appreciations for what he has done for the band and us fans in these past 10 years, and also give him our best and warmest wishes for the coming future.

We are going to use internet as a tool for this project, gathering messages, artworks, postcards etc., make them into a book, and the staff of this project will bring it to Japan on 12/23.

No matter Yukihiro san is your favorite or not, if you are a L'Arc~en~Ciel fan, you should participate in this project. Even just a few sentences, a few words, please have them expressed out, to show Yukihiro san how much we care about him and the band.

To participate this project, please go to one of the project presentative site (http://www.larcologyst.com)

Please spread this project through the world.
Thank you.

[Tailsop]

[Nan Desu Ka]

yeah, it's on the l'arc website, I'm more mad though, about shine NOT being on the album then hurry xmas being on it.

[Tailsop]

[Tailsop]

[Nan Desu Ka]

http://www.veoh.com/videos/v1394719awwedab6

[Cremie]

<3 them..but i've ought rest to listen their song for a while..lol >.<''

[Sonya]

That PV is so cool! I love how they're all smiling and having fun with the Santas :-)

[Tailsop]

awesome great song very nice

[dignity92]

They're going to be on Music Station this Friday! Can't wait for it to be uploaded.

[Tailsop]

aww rhat sucks i wont be able to see it
:mad:

[beat~desu]

I'm just psyched that they have gone back to their old sound! Man...I really missed that old style of music. :(

I love Daybreak's Bell...so great. I haven't look forward to an album by them for a while and so far from the tracks I've heard...it can't possibly fail.

Less than a week away~

[Liquid Fantasy]

Aww... I love the song. It's so cute. XD

[Nan Desu Ka]

album sounds pretty good, a little less rock than I would've liked but definitely great, I think awake is still my fav though =]

[White-Hexe]

I love the song "Daybreaks Bell"

Many of my friends, who don't like most japanese music, really like this song!

I love Hydes vocals, and the music itself blows be and my friends away. It gets stuck in my head so easy!

[beat~desu]

Gotta love Ken's solo and then Hyde's vocals matching the melody. Best part of the song imo. I only have on friend that likes them...wish more of them did. Hell most of the time they make the mistake of mistaking a guy for a girl since they don't listen to j-music.

Also much thanks for the L'Arc scans Nan Desu Ka.

[Sonya]

Did you guys hear, Tetsu's getting married! The woman is 22 years old actress. Just got e-mail from my japanese friend so I guess it's true :cool:

[Tailsop]

Thats great to know about....CRAP im not invited to the wedding?:silly:

[Nan Desu Ka]

wow, she's 22? tetsu's robbing the cradle lmao

[HanaKagari]

Her name is Ayana Sakai, but I don't believe it until they come with facts ^^; It was written in a japanese gossip magazines, and all over the internet, though the funniest thing is, they all tell a different story XD so until they confirm it themselves I won't believe~

Therefore Ayana said she didn't want to get married until she was 26, not too long ago in an interview, her manager also told her then, that getting married is very bad for her carreer. Time will tell I guess.

@Tailsop Ayana said she wanted it big and wanted people to see it, so who knows, maybe the weddings gets filmed, you're there then, sort of XD

What do you all think of KISS? I didn't listen to it yet, just tried the new Link mix, I'll listen to the rest later XD

[Tailsop]

[QUOTE=@Tailsop Ayana said she wanted it big and wanted people to see it, so who knows, maybe the weddings gets filmed, you're there then, sort of XD.

Yeah but if i was there and they had a video ill be the guy with the funny hat saying Congratulations to Tetsu every 5 seconds:p Just so you know he's my favorite member of L'arc en ciel:relief: WHOOOOOOOOOO COMPAI TO TETSU:beer::hanabi::cake:

[mico]

eh, i wonder what's the difference between Link and Link mix?
i have to be patient for 1 week to get my KISS arived.
yes, i heard tomorrow both Tetsu and Ayana will give the confirmation on mass media.
i'm happy just for you, leader-sama :( :bawling: :bawling:

[beat~desu]

So now what wil Tetsu do with his bananas? Lol

[Tailsop]

keep throwing them.....yeah im just not gonna talk about that but yeah great job tetsu.:cool:

[moelar]

:p I'm surprised that this hasn't been posted yet. It caused extreme fangirlism yesterday on l'arc en ciel livejournal. Enjoy!!!
Official Haitsu/Kenyuki larger than life poster!!! Be-warned of extreme hotness!!
http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t3/Annemone00001/200711201330000.jpg

http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t3/Annemone00001/200711200022rd7.jpg

[Sonya]

O_O Okay that's just...something. Tetsu's expression :D
I hate fangirlism and yet I'm finding myself staring at that picture
@_@
There's no Hyde/Ken pic! I bet that would have been something axtraordinary..

[Nan Desu Ka]

gah that pic is so damn smex, holy hell! Hyde your killing me with your hotness lol

[Sonya]

Oh maaaaan Kiss is awesome awesome awesome. Did you guys listen to it yet? I just HAD to download it yesterday, couldn't wait @_@ The fact is, all the tracks are love. Of course the singles and especially the slow songs..Umebi and Yuki no Ashiato. Gorgeous.

[rechino]

whooo~ that pics really HOT ne especially Hyde looks gorgeous as always gah so much love for him:-)

[Nan Desu Ka]

gah the album is freaking love!!! and I still cant get over that freaking picture of hyde and tetsu!!

[Sonya]

^lol you're not alone with this problem :relief:
* has a new wallpaper*
And if there's really gonna be some kisskiss-cv... xcsdfcrfg
I'd love to talk about the album but this post is too damn retarded for that.

[Kala]

I want to listen to kiss!! how unfair.... T_T ....aaaah, aaaanyway.... let's stop cryinggT_T
-that pic is sweet :cute: jeje /my nose is bleeding jajaja/-

about the testsu getting married thing, and what about this video:::

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q63wWtjqR9A&feature=related

I don't get one thing they're saying but the girl IS showing a ring there ..... jaja :P

[Nan Desu Ka]

every song on the album is so good but I especially love Black Rose, and Alone en la vida. Some of those ballads are so beautiful too, hyde's voice is just amazing. To tell you the truth, a couple of the ballads remind me of Hyde's roentgen album which makes me even happier lol

[RevengeBabyYeah]

Congrats to Tetsu! (If it's true)

That pic is....I need that poster :p
Thanks for posting!

I haven't heard the new album, but from reactions it seems amazing :D

[moelar]

I have been listening to KISS alot lately :-) Both singles and non-singles songs are fantastic in my opinion. Currenly my fav single song is Daybreak's Bell, while non single song is Spiral, Umibe and Alone en la vida. Hyde's voice is amazing, isn' it??

btw.. have you guys seen this "pretty Girl" live from last week Music japan??? It sounds awesome live!!! and hyde has improved in TV performances. Such energy they have. Check it out!!

http://youtube.com/watch?v=yg_qSlqUWFQ

and I can't believe I missed the birthday of my fav drummer.

HAPPY belated 39th BIRTHDAY YUKKIE!!!

[beat~desu]

39 yrs old? Man he sure doesn't look it. They still seem like they are in their early 20s jumping around and playing music like that. Many more years plz.

Also: Loving KISS. Funny since I didn't enjoy it immediately...it took me a few listens to really adore most of the songs. My favs are Alone en la Vida, Black Rose, Umibe, My Heart Draws A Dream, Sunadokei, and of course Daybreak's Bell. Hell, I like all the other songs too. Great album.

[Tailsop]

Yeah thats like Acidman's Drummer he looks old but he's the youngest in the band. oh and congratulations Yukihiro!:cracker::cake:

[Hyde_is_my_anti-drug]

RETURN OF TEH ULTIMATE LARUKU FANGIRL!!! Dundun XD

ANYWAY! KISS = love. Haitsu = ultimate love *nod*nod*

And my favorite song on KISS is "ALONE EN LA VIDA." It basically blew my brain out my ears the first time I heard it.

And heheheh, ken and yuki are OLD! *shot* I kid, I kid :p

[Tailsop]

i didn't know this site had a L'arc en ciel ultimate fan-girl:?

[Hyde_is_my_anti-drug]

Oh, I'm just kidding. Though I am rather infamous (or was) on here for being an insufferable HYDE/Laruku wh0re :p

[Tailsop]

:souka: ok yeah thats nice to know

[mico]

Moelar: that is a gahaha pic. can't wait for the CM

Sonya: in the Theater of Kiss tour MC, hyde said that he kiss Ken too. once again, can't wait for the cm.

Kala: she's telling us about how they know each other, since when they dating, how tetsu purpose her (god! tetsu ssoooo romantic!), and that 20 million yen light pink Harry Winston 2.22 Carat diamond ring......


does anyone have the scan of KISS booklet???

[Nan Desu Ka]

so laruku is releasing a new single early next year, I'm pretty sure in February. I don't know a ton about it just that the title song is called "Drink it Down" and it's going to be the theme song for the videogame "Devil May Cry 4" so it's sure to be a hard rock song :D

[semi~sweet]

yeah Drink It Down is an awesome song

[Nan Desu Ka]

I agree! all of it! their music is really diverse to fit all my different moods.

[haidoLove]

thats one of the things for which I really adore and respect laruku...:bluush:
as band they have a very own and recognizable style of music, but at the same time ALL the songs are different from each other! there's hardly ever a doubt which song it is, you can't mistake one for another^^
laruku are a great and very talented band! :p

[Tailsop]

:( that was great i agree with you:cool:

[Sonya]

[semi~sweet]

AWW hahaha i love when Hyde said he couldn't forgive a girl that smiled like poo hahahaha

[haidoLove]

this show was absolutely one of the funniest and cutest things^^
it made me think of 3xHey when haido and ken were playing those stupid games and singing karaoke with that blond and very gay sounding moderator xDDD

semi~sweet: OH yeah I died laughing when he said that....xD and then one of the boys said: but that's similar to what ken said, isn't it??? xDDD

lol, and when hyde lost in the game he ran away and lay down on the ground xDDD lmao, that was so cute^^

[semi~sweet]

haidoLove hahaha yeah when Hyde and Ken were on Matthew's Best Hit TV Show hahaha i was that show saved on my laptop...

[juria]

Wah, this thread is very popular, isn't it? ^_^ I've only started listening to "L'Arc~en~Ciel" recently, but I think that their music is very unique; it has a comforting, mellow rumble and there are sometimes surprises wrapped within the music. Most of the time their songs are emotional with catching guitar bursts; it at times reminds me of another Japanese rock band called "Plastic Tree." Has anyone heard of this group?

that is so true...i remember i was babysitting my sisters baby once and she wouldnt go to sleep (she was all fussy and stuff) so i turned off all the lights and popped in L'Arc~en~Ciel's Heavenly CD and the baby calmed down right away so i started to rock her and in less than 15 mintues she was completly knock out...i loved that i was like "awwww!"

[Tailsop]

Aha so L'arc en ciel has the power to make baby's colm down:cool:

I WANT TO GO.

[EarthlyBeauty]

I really wish L'arc-en-ciel come back to America, it would really make my year. no, my life. <3

[Tailsop]

I really wish L'arc-en-ciel come back to America, it would really make my year. no, my life. <3
What would really make my life is if they came to america and i won free tickets plus back stage passes to see them and hyde, ken, tetsu, and yukihiro taught me how to play guitar as well as them:happy: i may never feel sad again:cool:

[haidoLove]

aah, thank you for the link, Sonya!!! :bluush:
wooow, I'd also like to go, but I'm afraid I haven't got enough money.... :(
does someone already know how much the tickets will cost?

[Sonya]

^ I think someone said it's gonna be around 40 euros. Not too bad.
But with the flights and hotel...ten times more -_-

[Tailsop]

your rightabout that the only way is someone you know lives there and you can sleep at there house so may be less money

[semi~sweet]

i know some one in Paris right now but i doubt i could stay with them since she's at the University there...so sad

[Tailsop]

yeah thats another story:p

[mico]

hey hey, does anyone know where i can see the last Pussuma performing ken and hyde which was aired at 28th november 2007? try to search it on youtube but couldn't find it..

[Faustianideals]

I'm not much of a Japanese music fanatic, but L'Arc~en~Ciel's latest album, "Kiss" is great. What other albums they put out would sound like it?

[yumeitsumo]

I love this band. It's like the first Band (Japanese) I ever listened to. How many albums do they have? I have Smile and Awake. Which ones do you suggest that I get?

[Tailsop]

Last i checked awake and smile were the only albums sent to america but as for how many that have you can just say ALLOT

[Nan Desu Ka]

The answer is on laruku.fr :) :
"You'll be able to order your tickets here on Monday by Noon (12pm). Price will be 44,50€ for the fosse (standing in front of the scene) and 49,50€ for a seat (anywhere). There will be also extra delivery fees for non-french. I advise you all to take this solution. (The buy will be in english also, so better for you). Don't panic,everybody is getting their tickets.
Rendez-vous Monday midnight."
I'm gonna go here as I don't live far from Paris :-)

[Tailsop]

im sure they are. when it comes to l'arc en ciel there always sold out.

[Zai-Zai]

anyway i'll be in hongkong while the conecrt,so i'll still have chance to meet them haha..

[captaingunkan]

L'arc!!!
When I first heard their songs, I thought they were awesome :D
Like their song, Stay Away... when I hear it, I get nostalgic. They remain unchanged for a while now, and that's very good. Well, maybe slightly changed, but anyways, their music is always so moving and fun. Heheh, well at least the songs I've listened to from them.

[mico]

yes, the tickets sold out.

L'Arc~en~Ciel Official MySpace will be open 12.04.2008

[shirimaru]

when will i ever get to see l'arc~en~ciel perform live???????

[Tailsop]

well you could sneek in but it wont feel right just like downloading there songs its better to buy the cd than to download it.

[shirimaru]

well you could sneek in but it wont feel right just like downloading there songs its better to buy the cd than to download it.

true..if only i had the money to buy their cds rather than download the songs

[semi~sweet]

true..if only i had the money to buy their cds rather than download the songs

i know right it's so not far i wish i had the money to buy every single one of their cd's:(

[Tailsop]

Everyone can get there Cd's it may just take time and with that some may be impatient and go ahead and download the songs. I do that sometimes.:relief:

[Shalimar_Doyle]

is not easy for us,romanian people,to buy japanese singers or bands CD's. So we have to listen this music online,on you tube.i really like Laruku's songs. They are not coming in our country? I think not. So,we have to continue downloading j-music on web.sorry! The first j-song that i listen was Laruku's Daybreak's bell.

[semi~sweet]

HitsugiMad4eva well what do you want to know? cuz there is a lot about L'Arc~en~Ciel

[rishigautam500]

@Hitsugi - first of all, they rock. :)

[shirimaru]

second of all, they rock.

[semi~sweet]

eeee the had L'Arc~en~Ciel on the News in France hahaha Hyde is sooo cute i can't believe he spoke french ^__^ i loved it

[Tailsop]

I only saw L'arc en ciel once on the news here in America but it was on the Asian channel.

[Tailsop]

News from Japan:
there was an ad on the newspaper on May 13th, not only announcing the new single NEXUS 4 but also saying that the NEXT LIVE is gonna be in 2011!!!! 3 years LATER!!! and its gonna be the 20th Anniversary! SO... in other words. no album / no concerts for 3 years!!!!

Many are now speculating that the 20th might be their LAST. or else, why would they have already planned for 2011 3 years ahead and announcing it so early!? Very unlike their usual tour!

[semi~sweet]

three years gosh i have to wait soooo long T__T

[Tailsop]

well its not all bad now we have time to store up money so we can see there 20th anniversary concert.:cool: I'm just trying to look on the bright side.

[semi~sweet]

yeah and on hydeist they were saying that there probably taking 3 years off to get something done with there solo careers

[Tailsop]

yeah and on hydeist they were saying that there probably taking 3 years off to get something done with there solo careers
Not much new even thow there solo bands arnt as good as L'arc ill still listen to there solo music but what about tetsu? will he return to Tetsu or Creature Creature? and i cant wait to here more songs from KEN and Acid Android.:cool:

[shirimaru]

3 years?! Oh no! Why disappear for three years? And here I was consoling myself, thinking I could just go to their concert next year. I will have saved enough money by then...:'(

Is that bit of news confirmed already?

[semi~sweet]

Is that bit of news confirmed already?

yes it is... and i know what you mean i will definatly be able to go to that concert...all i got to do is start saving my pennies XD

[Kala]

3 YEARS OFF!!!????? 3 YEARS OFF????!!! WHAT THE F++K???!!
I know I like what they do on thier solo careers... but *sob*... but ...*sob* but *sob*
3 FREAKING YEARSSSSSSSSSSSSS???!!!!!

[Tailsop]

Well there's nothing we can do to stop it.

[semi~sweet]

Well there's nothing we can do to stop it.
yup all we can do is suppot them.

[haidoLove]

oww, that's a pity...T.T
but they already took some time off a few years ago, didn't they? and their solo projects became very good! so I'm looking forward to what they'll be doing during this band pause :souka:
and after all they'll be back then in three years, so it's not the end^^

[aiyoriaoshi]

Got to love L'Arc! When I went to Japan I made sure I bought one of there albums before I left. It was Awake!

I downloaded so much of there music, so I wanted to support them, because I felt really bad!
Kiss is there most different, yet awesome album to date I think! My second favorite is heavenly for some reason :)

I don't really like their Drink it Down single very much though. It just didn't flow right. That is about the only song I really don't enjoy from L'Arc

Dune 2008 though 0X0X0X0X!!! awesome

[Tailsop]

your right:cool: now i guess our eye turn to there solo bands at this point.

[Tailsop]

[shirimaru]

[Tailsop]

im sure im gonna miss it:(

[shirimaru]

[Tailsop]

Good question i'de like to know myself.

[shirimaru]

Hey tailsop! I discovered something: forums. Forums are the best place for l'arc video dloads. Check this forum out: http://pieces.deadsunrise.net/laruku/index.php?f=29

ah ok thanks:cool: thanks alot

[White Comet]

L'Arc is just going on a live hiatus, so they still will be releasing material, but the next time they will go live is for the 20th L'Anni~ver~sary Tour

[Tailsop]

Are u sure? that sounds good anyway.

[semi~sweet]

L'Arc is just going on a live hiatus, so they still will be releasing material, but the next time they will go live is for the 20th L'Anni~ver~sary Tour

that's is pretty good :cool: cuz life with out L'Arc would be hard XD

[EarthlyBeauty]

Oh really? I didn't know that!!

I thought they wouldn't be releasing material either, at least that's what I read. Do you have a source? :)

[Tailsop]

Yeah proof would make us all feel better

[White Comet]

hmm upon further research (larc-en-ciel.com, myspace.com/larcenciel,
other various articles etc.) it is certain that L'Arc is on a live hiatus (announced at the L'7 concert) however i havnt found any certain proof that L'Arc will continue to research material (most sources contradict each other, saying they will or will not), although the announcement of "next single: nexus4/shine" (http://listentheworld.wordpress.com/2008/05/13/larcenciel-20th-anniversary-for-2011/) it is assumed that more singles will follow, though this is speculation for now, we will just have to wait

please dont hold it against me if they dont because i'm a fan like you guys

[ivan_150289]

hello there...

it's already 16 years since L'Arc~en~ciel was first founded...

the 15th L'anniversary was sugoi desu~~

hmm, has their newest single, nexus came out yet?? if yes, can you tell me where to download it??

arigato gozaimasu~~

[semi~sweet]

nexus wont come out till july 16th - 30th

[Syra]

hmm, has their newest single, nexus came out yet?? if yes, can you tell me where to download it??
arigato gozaimasu~~
I know that the single itself hasn't come out yet but I believe that you can find short versions of both Shine and Nexus on a couple of places...I'm not sure tho, I'd have to check around before I actually get anything definite ^_^;;

Have to say that I can't wait until it comes out though

[EarthlyBeauty]

I read on JMusicAmerica: and I quote: "the band's activity until then is being put on hiatus following the end of their TOUR 2008 L'7~Trans ASIA via PARIS~ tour on June 8th."

So it seems it's not just a live hiatus after all.

[Tailsop]

so the news about them have gone from bad to worse.

[semi~sweet]

OMG what!?! kanashimi :(

[Tailsop]

I just have a feeling that it will get from bad to worse.

[Syra]

Well...I suppose we should attempt to think positively...

Has anyone seen either of the PVs for Nexus or Shine? Or maybe just your thoughts on the songs?

[semi~sweet]

I've only heared the clip of Nexus and Shine and i really do thing they both sound really really good

[ivan_150289]

yep, nexus 4 has a futuristic image... i heard that this song is also used as an image song for a car??

while shine is also good...

has their PVs released yet??

[Syra]

yep, nexus 4 has a futuristic image... i heard that this song is also used as an image song for a car??
Yeah-- I think it was used on a commercial for a Subaru >> someone can and reeeeeally should correct me if I'm wrong ^^;;

and I found the "full" PVs on Youtube-- Nexus 4 scaaaared me ><;; I thought someone was going to fall-- but if you haven't seen it, go and see it and you'll know what I'm talking about... I'll see if I can find the links and edit in a bit

@semi~sweet: I have to agree- tho I think I like Shine more than Nexus 4 >> not sure tho...they're both great

EDIT: Ah-- here's the links-- just put the YouTube address in front of it cos I don't post enough to put links in yet--sorry
Nexus 4 PV: watch?v=A0Ejt-AThzU#
Shine: watch?v=ubSfns7tiBw

[semi~sweet]

here's the Nexus 4/Shine single download site

http://www.mediafire.com/?hold9110gtl

don't feel bad about downloading this one because L'Arc~en~Ciel said they would only release this in Japan and over seas fans would need to get the downloads from them.

[Syra]

oh wow- thanks semi-sweet ^^
kinda sucks a bit about the release tho...

[EarthlyBeauty]

over seas fans would need to get the downloads from them.

Meaning, download the single for free? :okashii:

Once I can, I'm going to buy my copy online from Japan. :cool:

[Syra]

I wish I could >>;;

but anyways-- I love Nexus 4 :-) it's way too catchy lol-- I keep putting it on repeat on my player and listening to it again and again

[semi~sweet]

i really love Shine....it's a beautiful song ^__^ the Nexus 4 P.V. is awesome i love how they did the whole P.V. on the roof of a building

[Syra]

Shine is a gorgeous PV too ^___^ and I liked the idea but I kept going "Don't fall off the building Tetsu!" during the whole thing lol

[semi~sweet]

i was the same way but with Hyde XD like when ken and testu switch places i went "*gasp* Haido!!"

[Syra]

Oh yeah- I completely agree it was like "Hooooow wide is that ledge? Don't hit Haido!"
lol XDDD I think that's the only PV I've actually just stared at with worry before XDDD

[semi~sweet]

omg i had the same question...does anyone know how wide it was???

[Syra]

Since no one else seems to have a guess << >> I suppose I could take one
At the end of the PV-- it looks like.... 5 feet? (don't ask me to put that into the metric system please ^^;;; ) but there was a large platform behind Laruku that was edited out that was even with the ledge...

....so basically I don't know XD

[Tailsop]

Im Back:wave: So what did i miss?

[semi~sweet]

i'm about 160cm tall and i'm 5'3" so i'm guessing about 155cm - 158cm?

correct me if i'm wrong

[Syra]

I don't know XDDD sounds about right but I think I was looking again and I think it's smaller than that... possibly 4 feet << >> I'm still just throwing numbers out there again tho .___.;;; sorry

[gerbin]

Driver's High! whoo!

[shirimaru]

been a long time people...what's new here?

[Syra]

idk... I think the whole thread died ><....

[shirimaru]

the thread's taking a hiatus just like L'arc

[semi~sweet]

we shouldn't be we need to talk more about L'Arc~en~Ciel ^__^

[Syra]

the thread's taking a hiatus just like L'arc
You don't know how much I wanted to laugh outloud at that XD and that would've been bad << >> I'm in the middle of class XDDDDD
we shouldn't be we need to talk more about L'Arc~en~Ciel ^__^
That's soooo true.... *attempts to think of something to say*:?

[semi~sweet]

did anyone get the Nexus 4/Shine screensaver?

[Syra]

I wish .___.;;;....*randomly thinks of the song* >>;;;

[semi~sweet]
