2008 Jan-June Oricon Chart Listing - No.9 GReeeeN - キセキ

Category: By sandbox
Do you like JPOP? If yu like it as much as I do, then you should not miss the 2008 January to June Oricon Chart Listing. Click here to go to the oricon's official site to view the list.

There is one thing that I want to share here. GReeeeN's single 'キセキ' (pronounced as 'kiseki') has appeared in the list as No.9! It is really unbelivable as their single was only released on 28 May 2008 and they have only approximately one month to compete with other artists' sellings. In just one month's time, they have managed to gain a total of 259,074 copies sold throughout Japan. I really like the song 'Kiseki' and I am trying to learn some japanese words from its lyrics. By the way, this is also the theme song for the Japanese Drama 'Rookies', a very popular manga few years back.

PSP anywhere you go!

Want to play PSP anytime, anywhere, even in the shower? This waterproofing bag will protect your precious PSP from water or rain.

As stated on Cyber Gadgets Japan, the bag will cost you 1280 Yen (US$12.32 or Malaysian Ringgit 38.75). The size of the bag is 19.5cm x 16cm. This is big enough even to mount the TV unit on top of your PSP. (See image above)

The baggie comes with 2 suction cups which enables you to hang it on the wall to watch your favourite movies while you are lying in your bathtub. It also floats on the water for those of you fearing your PSP might drop into the sea water and washed away by the waves.

30th & 31st March 2008 - PSP & Blog

Category: By sandbox
30th & 31st March of 2008 mark 2 very special days in my life, 30th being the day which i bought my PSP, and 31st being the born of the 1st post of this blog.

I have been longing to buy a PSP for myself since the day PSP was launched. When the English version of Final Fantasy VII Crisis Core was announced, I told myself that this is the perfect time to get one, as FF7 is my favourite among the FF series. I can't wait to know what happened before Cloud and the gang (or the so called Avalanche) invaded Midgar city. Thus on last Sunday, my girlfriend and I went to 3rd floor of Wisma Satok and bought a PSP there. The price here in Kuching is RM820 for a PSP with a 4GB MS fully loaded with games (or movie if you want), a screen protector, a carrying case, a strap, & CFW 3.90 M33 upgrade. (Note: CFW means Custom Firmware)
