~Recognizing the six phases of work~ (*>ω<)！！
(Previously posted, and as a more recent appearance was missing a few of the step~ phases I thought a re~emergence of all six was in calling~ o(*´∀｀)o゛）
Ever wonder what effects work can have on a person? (・c_・;)？Well after extensive research the following findings have been observed in the workplace. Here are the six phases one goes through…..and in the case that you're not yet working, um…here's what you have to look forward to (・д・`*)。。。
Phase 1
You are listening to Stevie Wonder.
(Your first day at work and all is fine and great)
Phase 2
You are listening to House Music.
(After awhile you're so busy that you're not sure if you're coming or going anymore)
Phase 3
You are listening to Metal.
(This is what you feel like at month's end)
Phase 4
You are listening to Hip Hop.
(You become bloated due to stress, feel sluggish and suffer from constipation)
Phase 5
You are listening to Gangsta Rap.
(After more time passes your eyes start to twitch, you forget what a 'good hair day' feels like as you just fall out of bed and load up on caffeine (*≧m≦)！！）
And finally
Phase 6 kicks in…
You are listening to Techno (on Ecstasy)
The truth- (How all employees end up eventually… :P)
Ahhhh it's *happy~* Monday, I hope you had a better day than me (人∀`*)！
So the weekend’s been sort of like….
…well first I did get to watch~* the Women's Final @ the Australian Open on Friday night ＾ ＾♥！！and then getting 12 hours of sleep straight on Saturday early morning till the early afternoon, it was pure~* o(*´∀｀)o゛♥♥♥！
And what I was then so hoping for was more like this ↓↓↓ for the rest of the weekend and to be online♥ much more…
…but before I knew it, it soon had turned into this!!!↓↓↓ …
…..Ugh~! and but by Saturday afternoon it had become…omg~! ↓↓↓
But I should be back to "normal", as normal as can be (。ーωー。)。。。by tomorrow so please forgive me for being so absent here the past few days (*≧∀≦)☆★ ↓ ごめんなしゃい(>_<)；。
～石川梨華最新写真集「24 Ｔｗｅｎｔｙ ｆｏｕｒ」♥
…so Agent Jack Bauer says to Charmy~*,
"..stop me if you've heard this one before:
An idol♥, a counter terrorist agent and the Easter Bunny..
..hop~* into a bar….."
…Oops~! wrong "24" (*´艸`)！！！
Something tells me that that would be amusing though
…(^q^)! You know, finding out that the Easter Bunny drinks!! I wonder though…..after all of these years of constantly being asked how did you and the egg~* become one?…do you secretly~* actually lay eggs~*? And aren't those chocolate bunnies yummy?..well not to me but, well….that would explain the bar thingie~ (。ーωー。)。
Ishikawa Rika's photo books including "24 Twenty four" can be ordered here at Amazon Japan.
Ishikawa Rika's photo book "24 Twenty four" can be ordered here at YesAsia.
Ishikawa Rika's photo book "24 Twenty four" can be ordered here at HMV Japan.
The included making of DVD for "24 twenty four" once again reminds me of how no matter how much time passes~ or how mature Rikachan becomes….she will seemingly always own such an adorable~♥ anime voice~**!! Truly one of the very best~!!
The 19 minutes take you along for her daily photo shoots in both Yokohama and Okinawa and although I'm partially biased to love♥ her previous shashinshuu "Karen" as Rikachan was on Oahu, Hawaii♥ for its production, here with "24" we're treated to such a *beautiful~* light of Rikachan…one which has been much more reserved in her past pb releases~ as the overall image this time is of a much more ladylike~* and mature statement.
But not to worry~!!…as that very familiar and most endearing~* Rikachan♥ *charm*….or "Charmy" personality is never too far away as even when dressed in the most elegant~* or sultry of wardrobes, it inevitably always shines through so much! o(*´∀｀)o゛♥♥♥。
So here with Charmy's♥ 10th solo shashinshuu (or 11th if you include "Angels" although it was joint~cuteness* with Sayumi♥ then) "24 twenty four" I've scanned 60 of my most favorite photos just below~ ＾ ＾。
The first half or so of her shashinshuu was shot in Yokohama as Charmy♥ is showing a most beautiful~* longer hairstyle while in her latter photo shoots in Okinawa she then opted for an adorable~* bob cut (*´∀｀*)！
Hm…and there's something so *sexy* about her slightly ratty top which she's wearing during a latter part of her Okinawan shoot~…and just in case you've not found ratty to = *sexy* or provocative** before, Charmy♥ may have just the remedy** for that (￣▽￣)。。。。
And a tiny bit from the accompanying "making of DVD"…

~Dream match~* @ the Australian Open~! just minutes away~* ー(*￣Ｏ￣)ノ ！
It's amazing that these two fierce competitors have never crossed paths in a major grand slam final~*!..and while I'm an avid watcher…sometimes "player" ー(*￣Ｏ￣)ノ 。。of tennis♥ it's one major statistic that I've never realized.
Serena vs. Justine.
Like in other sports you only need hear first names..as these athletes' accomplishments and importance to their respective sports far exceed the need for any additional syllables~ ＾ ＾。
Wonderful stories on both sides as Serena looks to continue her dominance in perhaps one of her most tested grand slams yet~ while the most most welcome~♥ back appearance of Justine who the game so has missed recently (we soooo need much more all court players~♥ and with her petite size omg okay~* I'm biased (*´艸`)！！I'm sooo tiny too so a~h…..well okay…….um……..in a "word" Justine is: o(*´∀｀)o゛♥♥♥. Now that that's out of the way….(。ーωー。)。。Kim Clisters was so amazing~* with her win last year in a major with it being just her third tournament back after a lengthy absence…..so on the eve here too, one mighty little Justine is also on the very verge of such an accomplishment…perhaps even more remarkable being that the Australian Open marks just her second tournament back after her premature (;´□｀)。。exit from the women's game while at #1~.
~And for anyone who loves tennis♥ we all so live an die by each and every point~! ＼(^o^)／☆ / (・д・`*)～！！！。。just think of Rafa's epic win over Federer @ Wimbledon♥ 2008 as it was nervous and heart wrenching while watching live~*, perhaps one of the greatest tennis matches ever?, so with bated breath~* it's Serena vs. Justine @ Aussie's centre court~* now just minutes away…..どき♥どき～＊するね～ ー(*￣Ｏ￣)ノ ！！！
。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。Justine♥ gambatte~! えぃえぃ、ぉーo(*´∀｀)o゛！！！
On a scale from 1 to 10, how sleepy am I? ( 」´０｀)」。。。
…I mean the feeling after only getting 3 hours of sleep last night and 3 1/2 hours the night before~ (*>ω<)！！！。。I now feel like a combination of these below ↓↓↓。。um but I really can't share what I was *doing* (。ーωー。) ♪。。。。。
but no it wasn't *that*! (Henkka stop thinking such things~…(^q^)!)
I'm currently *feeling* a combination of #'s 1 & 5 no maybe it's 8 & 4 or 7, 9 & a little bit of 1?….or 6, 7 & 8?…2, 3 & 7?
Wait!!!!
I know!
It's 10!!! definitely #10!!!! (*´艸`)。。。おやちゅみなしゃい！o(*´∀｀)o゛♥。
( 」´０｀)」Ｚｚｚｚｚｚｚｚｚｚ。。。。。
猫ちゃん♥の世界。。。
ぇええ〜ッ何か変えたの？
これは、どんな感じ？。。なんで不安な感じに中で？。。。(>_<)’
あっ！
やっぱり～！ね～～(。ーωー。)。。。
。。兄貴～♥がギャングスターになったよ！！(・д・`*)！！！
(。ーωー。)笑
~Koike♥Yui’s “Flapper” shashinshuu giveaway starts here~*
It's almost February~*….and that means that the racing off~season (´⌒｀。)。。is nearly over~ ＼(^o^)／☆！！While March will most likely see the return of the fin style~* spoiler and the end of the rear wing for the Cup Series~* this brings the promise of better downforce ↓↓↓ translating to better handling I hope~!! And also the season kick~off~* with the Daytona 500 also brings notable change to the sport as the governing body has announced its retraction of the "no bump drafting" rule as well as the encouragement of much more colorful personalities on and off the track~* ＾ ＾。What it all means? Things could be really wild (・д・`*)！！。。。at the season opener which also serves as NASCAR's "Superbowl" of events for the upcoming 36 race season~♥!
So here we go~* with Koike♥Yui's most adorable~* shashinshuu giveaway~!
First a brief look at what's at stake here (note: most photos are from the making of "Flapper" DVD and not the actual photo book but many many similar photos are included….
Eligible entrants include: harold, Tautterkle, mousoufest, batmite1, Alezra, ladybird & Nayoko-Kihara…thank you~* for sharing what you found to be Koike♥Yui's charm~* point in the pre~entry post before yesterday's deadline~.
Please select your one race♥ fantasy team by choosing 6 drivers whom you think will have the best combined average finish at the upcoming Daytona 500 to be held on Sunday February 14th~! Post only one of your driver choices here and PM (private message) to me your other five choices~ keeping them a *secret* until race♥day…(I'll post all complete fantasy race teams prior to Sunday's race event at Daytona so you may follow along live if you're curious for the results ＾ ＾。). Only the top 35 drivers (in points) are eligible for choices as shown below from last year's end of season statistics~. Referencing the history of race results, Daytona remains as one of the most unpredictable races~ so the top drivers in points doesn't necessarily equate to the best race day results on this restrictor plate track~….however that may not be reason enough to not choose from the top of the standings but you just never know how things will turn out after 500 miles~.
The top two finishing teams~ will then face off in a single race showdown the following week when the Cup Series visits Auto Club Speedway in Fontana California determining the winner of the photobook~. Good *luck~* ＾ ＾！
All entries must be received by February 9th 11:59 pm HST
