Giving Up

There are days when everything seems so hard that you feel like giving up

First Last

First love never dies, and the last one lasts forever.

MY HYDE!

At last!
HYDE is in my possession!!

Well, I don't literally mean HYDE -the person- but THE HYDE -the autobiography- even though I still wish he was mine, hahaha.. To tell you the truth, I still hope someday he will be mine *selfish wish*

The Design.
The first thing I noticed when I got this book.
I think it's classic, mysterious, with a touch of vintage. The graphic is beautiful. There are sketches that Hyde drew and photos included in the book. Many books put so much pictures, drawings, and graphics that they become difficult to read. But in THE HYDE the arts are arranged in a way that the book is still comfortable to read. Well, for me, THE HYDE itself is an art.

At the back of the book, there is a list of words. It is arranged alphabetically. There are 26 words and each of them begin with distinct letters. You can guess right away that it is a list of contents. Every word in the contents represents a chapter in the book. I just feel that it's very unique.

This should be one of the first things you notice when you get this book. But I realized it after God knows how many hours (ok, this is exaggerated) I had held this book.

The Spine!
(I mean what is written on the spine)
Yes. The name of the author.
Which is Hyde. 
"Hideto Takarai"
Yes. Hideto Takarai is indeed his real name.


Okay, so I have the book now.
But there is one more problem that's still bothering me.

I can't READ Japanese!!!
Damn!
I understand hirgana and katakana, but I can't read almost, if not all, the Kanji. How I wish I could read Japanese...

I really hope that there will be English version of THE HYDE.

Well, I think that's all for now.
I will continue to drown myself in the pleasure of looking at his photos, hahahaha..

Today is HYDE Day!

Yup! That's right.
Today is Hyde's birthday. He's 43 now. Wow..
I don't think I need to explain how he looks younger than his actual age. I think he symbolizes wine (and he's a very fine wine), getting better with age. Well, I never had the chance to taste old wine, but people said that way, so I guess it's true.

What makes today more special is that he releases his 1st Official Autobiography.
THE HYDE.
This is the rumored cover of the book:

Thank God I have already ordered the book.

おたんじょうび おめでとう ハイドさま

Not Romantic

Now you know I'm not romantic at all.
Are you ok with that?

Don't Talk

Conversation with you always ends in a fight.
We'd better not talk anymore.
