A-Music Week 2

Dear Follower,

After a crazy week I am back with your weekly dose of Asian music. Today, with some extra free time, I had a chance to explore the interwebs. During the Northwestern Debate Institute, I came across a blog run by Danny Choo. I don't remember what I was looking for when I found it. Anyways, his article, How Discovering Japan Changed My Life, really struck a chord with me for obvious reasons. Reading about how Danny, a young boy from London, came to love Japanese culture, learned the language, moved to Japan, and started his own business has become a source of inspiration for me. If you ever have some spare time, I highly recommend watching his show, Culture Japan. That is, if you are interested in Japanese culture like myself. Anyways, here we go!

1. Change - Yoshida Brothers X Monkey Majik

2. It's Okay - Untouchable ft. Hwayobi

3. Sakurane - Piko

4. Kaze no Gotoku - Inoue Joe

5. Kira Kira - Domino

6. DisPLZ Me - Nassun ft. Monday Kiz

7. Sen To Rei - Sakanaction

8. 待ち合わせの途中 - Plenty

9. Twinkle Twinkle - (걸스데이) Girl's Day

10. Aoi Shiori - Galileo Galilei

Today's A Good Day,

A-Music Week 1

Dear Followers,

My schedule right now is very enjoyable. Whether because of the presence of my friends or my knowledge of working the high school system, all of my classes seem a lot less challenging even with my perfectionism. Removing my 4th block class has opened up so many possibilities for my day. At PSEO I see so many Wayzata alumni everyday. Today I saw Amanda Kimberly Lai, Casey Liveringhouse, and what I took to be Kathleen Jiang. Overall, life is good.

In order to keep myself from going mad, I have decided to start blogging at least once every week. I know, I know. I have restated the following words hundreds of times only to fall once more into blogging-complacency. But, I have found a workable solution, for now. In order to motivate me to keep blogging, I have decided to combine my love of Asian pop culture with the activity. Every week during the weekend I am looking forward to listing a few of my favorite songs which I have dow.... purchased recently. Here we go!

1. Wave - Vijandeux

2. Kiss Kiss Kiss - SEAMO ft. Azu, Yukako (Facebook Video)


3. 完全感覚Dreamer - ONE OK ROCK

4. Usual Life - ALA

5. 가식걸 (Shady Girl) - SISTAR

6.  Balance Doll - Prague

7. Wo Ai Ni - Takahashi Hitomi ft. Beat Crusaders

8. Kasanaru Kage - Hearts Grow

9. Melody - No Regret Life

10.  Boo - APink

That's all I have for this week. If any of you are sharp (Ivan) you will notice that many of these songs have been used for Gintame openings and endings. I wholeheartedly recommend watching Gintama, but do so with an open-mind and don't expect to get much out of it. These were some of my favorite songs from my August do... purchasing session. In the next few weeks I am planning on putting up some of my favorite songs as I scour my iTunes. Sayonara~

The X-Axis Of My Table,
