Is my life complete? I think it is!
Ohh happy day!
I was browsing the new group dubs like I sometimes do, and I ran across a bulletin left by a person I dub with. She's holding auditions for a whole CONCERT! I respect a person who is willing to tackle so many songs... xD
I wasn't all that interested, until I saw the song list.
HOLY CRAP! JUNJUN AND LINLIN DO A DUET? BY THEMSELVES?! AND IT'S SUKI NA SENPAI?!
I was a very happy Kokoro.
I love Junjun's voice. It's so cute and pretty and strong... This only furthers my strong belief that she should get a major part in a single. Soon. Please.
So I immediately sent in an audition for Junjun. xD
I looooove this song. I looooove Junjun! Tsunku, give her more parts! D=<
Meh, I still don't like Linlin's voice. =______=
My Japan Trip Itinerary!
Here's the plan:
I'm a little disappointed we're not going to Akihabara or Shibuya, but I guess that's for the best? I don't think otaku are used to six feet tall blonde American girls traipsing around. xD

I'm a little disappointed we're not going to Akihabara or Shibuya, but I guess that's for the best? I don't think otaku are used to six feet tall blonde American girls traipsing around. xD

There's something wrong with my blog. I think I broke something when I posted that intro. xD

I think I'm going to die
Listening to: Onegai Miwaku no Target by Melon Kinenbi
Is it so wrong that I like a pop song that has a music video with a bunch of muscular black guys singing and dancing?
*blinks* It's amusing, I think.
HOLY CRAP!
I am going to die, I think.
The Japan trip has been moved up a day. I am now going on the twenty-first.
*foams at the mouth*
I'm not ready! I'm not ready! I can't do this! I can't do this! *spazzes*
I'm gonna dooooooiiiii.
Which means that my birthday is going to be spent with me worrying. =_______= And packing.

I don't understand Chinese~
Listening to: Zen Me Ban by S.H.E
This is the opening to the Taiwanese Hana Kimi drama. While it certainly is amusing, and I enjoy there are dramas of my favorite manga series, I don't really care for Ella (who is the boyish looking girl in the video). I mean, she's funny, but just doesn't have that Mizuki quality... The Japanese drama is much better. I mean, the actress is a convincing Mizuki. She looks like a very pretty boy. Ella's not very pretty in my opinion. ;_________;
Anywho, I lurv this group. There's Selena, the cute one with the long hair, Hebe, the beautiful one with the cropped hair, and Ella, the boyish one. =3
S.H.E, get it? xD
Hebe's really beautiful. She used to have really long hair, but it got burned off in a fire during one of their concerts or PV shootings or something. ;_____;
Selena's really sweet. ^-^
Anywho!
I recorded, like, ten songs yesterday. Let's count! =D
Joshi Kashimashi Monogatari-- Iida's lines
Joshi Kashimashi Monogatari-- Michishige's lines
Mini c-ute single 2- Sakura Chirari
Project Ani Uta single 1- Hey! Say!
Do it! Now
Mikan
Ambitious!
An audition for Watashitachi no Kinenbi
Relations
Yume no Naka (but by then my voice was hoarse. xD)
Koi Girl no Victory
Baby! Koi ni Knockout
Play With the Numbers
Most of these had to be recorded several times for various reasons. Mom came out, the phone rang, the dog barked, Simone slammed the door open, stomped in, demanding to know where the scooter was....
Dx
Well, at least I got all of that out of the way.
It actually felt like more because I uploaded songs that I had already recorded but hadn't turned in yet. =3
I still have four more songs to sing. xD Oh, and my lines for Hare Ame Nochi Suki.
I have some mixing to do~
Oh, speaking of dubs...
She put it up!
Like, two hours after I sent in my lines. xD Faaast!
Fifteen voices is A LOT.
I sound really crappy! Dx
A lot of these mics are pretty low quality. But of course, Vee-chan did a great job mixing. =3
telenagikinetic really blew me away! She sounds just like Goto Maki! =D
All of my lines were so low quality yesterday. Dx It kind of was a waste of time, actually. =_____=
I think I'm gonna go listen to my lines once more.... >.>

I have too much to record~ =D
Listening to: Nothing! =D
Here is my intro:
Suki Sugite Baka Mitai, mixed by yours truly.
Shabondama
Aruiteru
Iroppoi Jirettai (mixed by me again; I had some trouble)
Morning Coffee
^^^^^^
Not to brag, but this dub turned out AMAZING. =O I'm actually really impressed by it! And I mixed it! xD
Not much more to talk about. =__________= Gomen ne, minna-san.
Here is my intro:
The Name is Taylor... But Kokoro is Cuter. So Call Me That Instead. =3
'Elloo everyone!
My true name is Taylor, but I'd prefer you call me by my internet alias, Kokoro. My username, --Lolita no Kokoro--, is short for LoliKokoro, my other internet alias. And that's even shorter for 'I don't have enough creativity to think of an uber-awesome username, so let's just go with my two favorite things!' AKA Lolita fashion and the word kokoro... Leave it up to the Japanese to make such a spiffy word for 'heart'.
I am fifteen going on sixteen. Actually, let's just say that I'm sixteen. I'll be sixteen in less than a month, and I look like I'm seventeen or eighteen. So sixteen it is!
I'm a Gaia "oldbie", I guess you could say. Joined in good ol' 2004, back when it was 'Gaia Online, an anime and manga roleplaying community'. Before the games and the promotional stuff and the fancy coding.
Ahh, good times.
I've been roleplaying for three and a half of those four years. While the occasional semi-literate roleplay is fun (you can get, like, forty posts out in one afternoon) I really lurv those literate drama roleplays.
I actually don't think I'm all that great, but I guess if I've been invited here, then I must be decent.... -_______-
Let's get down to business, shall we?
Shield Your Eyes!
I'm about five foot one, with long, sharply cut black hair that reaches my hips. I have large eyes and a slender build. To tell you the truth, I'm quite gorgeous. My hobbies are cooking, sewing, and thinking about the boy next door... He may be a bit of a geek, but I saw him that rainy day rescuing that kitten from a melted-Popsicle-puddle. I am also part of the tea ceremony club and I look pretty durn good in a kimono.
Waaait a second. That's not me. That's my cliche-dating-sim-mary-sue-self! =O
Okay, noooow I'll be serious.
I'm six feet tall, with long wavy blonde-brown hair cut in a princess style. I wear glasses. I'm incredibly clumsy and pretty stupid. I only hurt myself when cooking, I fail at sewing, I'm too tall for kimonos, I suck at pouring tea, and the only people who live near me are old ladies.
I'm a lolita, too. So add platform mary-janes, a frilly dress, and a parasol and we're good to go!
Do You Want it Or Not?
I like the stuff listed on my profile page. I dislike the stuff listed on my profile page.
As for roleplays? I love the fluffy romance. I love the unrequited love. I love the 'he's dating her, but she's really in love with this guy and sleeping with another' drama.
I hate action roleplays. I hate horror roleplays. I hate roleplays where I have no idea what I'm talking about.
The Miscellaneous Section
I LURV playing the weirdo character. Also the innocent character, but playing weird people is more fun.
I am a stickler for grammar. =3
I'm an otaku.
When I'm not roleplaying, I'm group dubbing Hello! Project songs.
So yeah, I'm a Morning Musume nerd.
Check my journal for my dubs. ;]
I'm also a shameless advertising whore.
And I'm the self-proclaimed Loli Queen Otaku of all things Otaku-y.
And I want a sammich, dammit.
It's very nice to meet you all! ^-^
I'd include a photo, but I don't have any recent ones. I'm afraid of photos. And mirrors.
I was invited to a literate roleplayer's guild, and this was my intro. I lurv it. ~<3 _______=" Oh" height="344" width="425">

Wait, does this mean I have a life?
Well, it certainly has been a while hasn't it?
Currently, I am on my dad's Blackberry. I am sitting in the cafe at the Snowbird ski resort in Utah. While I wait for my family to get off that horrid tram, let me tell you about Utah.
It is July. It is hot. In California, there are about 1200 forest fires. But it's not really all that hot. When crossing the Sierras, the smoke was so thick it was like fog. Jeez.
Here, it is about 96 degrees indoors. Dx
In Utah, the main roads are enclosed in ads. Billboards, banners, electric signs... It is ridiculous. The most common are ads against drunk driving and ads for laser hair removal clinics.
Majority of the population is Mormon.
The mountainsides are covered in developments. Land is cheap so the houses are big and gorgeous. But, they are building the houses faster than people are moving into them! So there are tons of empty houses just sitting there.
We got there late Saturday. On Sunday we just hung out. But Monday... Oh, god.
We went to This Is The Place, or whatever it is called. It is the first place the Mormon settlers lived. There is a little reenactment town now. We went there to see a show... That should have been a warning. But no, we climbed up into the social hall, greeted the gay Mormon boy, and were crushed into the wall by dozens of Mormon children.
The show? Horrific.
These four young adults, wearing shiny shirts, jumped out. They sang. One of the girls kept on tripping. They sang the history of Utah. And they came into the audience.
I was unfortunate enough to be sitting on the aisle. So the scary Justin Timberlake look alike attacked me during the opening number.
Well, not so much attacked me as shook my hand.
They sang. Justin changed on stage. The girl fell down the stairs. And they did a Mormon Tabernacle choir spoof that was pretty funny, I will admit it.
Oooh, we went to an aquarium on Sunday. I will just say that it took us thirty minutes to go through the whole thing. And that included buying tickets, petting the manta ray, and buying gum on the way out.
Tuesday... Was something. I cannot remember. Oh! We went to the movies. I saw Get Smart with my dad. It was funny. My mom and sister saw Wall-e.
Since our movie ended before Wall-e, we wandered around Thanksgiving Point. At 9 PM. There were a lot of people at the theater. I was wearing lolita (casual) and everyone I walked past looked at me strangely. At the grocery store and at the movies, I left a trail of stunned faces behind me. x3
Wednesday I went to the Hogle zoo. I have been there often, so it wasn't anything new. Well, there was an albino alligator. They said that anyone who looks into its eyes is granted good luck for the year. And guess who got a glimpse? Hopefully it will help out in Japan.
I like the red panda.
There was a 30 year old monkey. He was almost like a lizard. Or a dinosaur. It was gross.
Yesterday we went up to a cave. It was a 1.5 mile hike. But it was over 100 degrees. With little shade. Straight uphill.
I did not make it. I headed back down and spent the afternoon in the air conditioned ranger station.
Apparently the cave was really cramped, so I would not have enjoyed it.
And today... We are at the lodge. It is hot, yet sprinkling on and off.
When I get home Saturday (or Sunday, depending on how late) I will post up a bunch of new dubs. =3
