2. How crazy
3. Rolling star
4. CHE.R.RY

Her first word during MC was 'oppappii~!' lmao.

If you're wondering what the heck is 'oppappii', it is an abbreviation of Ocean + Pacific + Peace, which clearly doesn't make sense at all.

Demo, sonna no kankei nee!! (It doesn’t matter!)

If you're still confused, check this video *Warning: Explicit content*.
Imagine YUI, doing that pose...of course she didn't, just imagining haha.

Conclusion: YUI likes half-naked men LOL *runs away*

Joking joking. I like that guy too. First saw him in Utaban, when he was trying to 'terrorise' Utada Hikaru. Everybody likes him =D

I finally compiled all the information on YUI's guitars and create the ultimate guide on YUI's guitars.

August 2007

• It's summer, means lots and lots of outdoor live events. Rock in Japan, Girl Pop Factory, Zushi Marina Live Festival...
  

I turned 20, and wrote a post to commemorate it.

September 2007

• Release of LOVE & TRUTH on September 26. Total sales: 141,994 - Highest Ranking: 1 - Yearly Ranking: 48 (as 24/12/2007)

In this month I sent a package to YUI Locks which turned out to be one of my biggest accomplishment as a YUI fan.

October 2007

• Performed in School of Lock! Live Tour "Young Flag" at Fukuoka (October 12). First time on stage together with Jinn, another band that me like.

I became moderator of YUI Lover, half-banana got rid of blogspot (first time winning a contest online), new layout, new banner etc etc...

• Winter Sleeve campaign.

We had our first official YUI Lover Malaysian Outing near KLCC, till now I still can recall all the funny/memorable moments, especially guitar session, fun fun.

December 2007

• YUI mentioned my name in YUI Locks lol.

December was a very happening month to me, first my house was on fire, then I became Santa, giving away YUI goodies to people from all over the world. And my wish on having a favicon for half-banana dot com came true as well.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It's been a great year to me I think. Meet a lot of people, made a lot of friends online/offline. I have learned a lot, and changed a lot too I suppose. Especially my view on the world/people. After reading my first ever self-help book around July, I have been trying different ways to becoming a better person. The downside is my unread books are keep piling up, so many books to read, and now most of the time I only watch shows that YUI recommended LOL. Is this a good thing?

Anyway, I have bigger plans on year 2008 and one of them will be making this blog the best place for YUI-ing = spreading YUI-ism. Of course I will try to balance up between school, part time, and blogging because my ultimate goal depends on how good I manage all 3 of it.

Till then, hope you guys will have a great year ahead and thank you for being part of this blog~

2008年も宜しくお願いします。

PS: No more holly. Lets see if YUI will use it on next Christmas.
