It is ippai of photos.
Here be part one of a ???-part photodump, because I've got all these pictures accumulating that I should really share with people, especially the people appearing in said pictures. Here are some of the things that I've been up to so far in 2010, and it seems I've been a busy girl! I don't know how I've managed to do so much in less than a month and a half. @_@;;;
Actually, I meant to post this last night, but by 10:00 I was so exhausted that I couldn't keept my eyes open, so I made like a little old lady and went to bed. However, it wasn't until 11 or so that I finally fell asleep, because that's when Tabitha decided to finally stop being a pest and gave up running around and scratching at the walls and meowing, in favour of curling up beside me and sleeping the deep sleep of innocent babes and evil kittehs.
Feeling that we deserved a rest after our epic night out ushering in the new year, Tiffany, Hannah and I headed down to Odaiba on the 2nd of January, almost exactly a year after our last time there, to soak and relax and generally be naked together for the day. So we soaked, ate, walked around, lounged about in the relaxation room, soaked some more, and left feeling very clean. I astounded Hannah with one of my little-known superpowers, i.e. the ability to undress at the speed of light. ^o^
The only disappointment of our day was the discovery that some of the yukata designs (sadly enough, the 3 different ones we'd chosen included!) only come in yucky polyester! Bloh.
On the Yurikamome (a.k.a. The Weird Squiggle) line, a view of buildings and tracks and lots of blues and greys.
Doing what we were there to do: relaxing! Or, as my brothers would put it, being big relaxers.
Tiffany reading the magazine she'd bought while we were out celebrating the dawn of 2010.
Hannah watching the high school soccer game that was being projected on the large screen at our end of the room.
In the outdoor footbath. The light was really pretty.
The end of season 5!
Opening number featured the top 20 and lots of feathers. Cat is wearing a towel, but her hair has never looked better, and she's gorgeous. <3
To pad out the episode, it's been a good ten minutes of "Remember the auditions? Remember the dancers eliminated up to now? Remember last night?!" Come on, get on with it, already!
All right, some actual dancing! Time for the judges to request their favourite routines of the season.
First we have Jeanine and Phillip doing the Tabitha & Napoleon hip hop number from the very beginning of the season.
Nigel's favourite was also one of mine, that is Janette (I love you!) and Brandon's tango. Oh god, Janette, why didn't they vote more for you? You made me just as hot and bothered as the first time I saw this routine. *_______*
Asuka and Vitolio doing the waltz just makes me long to be doing it myself. It's a beautiful ache.
Jeanine and Jason doing Travis's contemporary number are amazing, as expected. That piece is just so realistic, the story is painful yet happy.
Haha, Jeanine got the loudest screams when the four finalists were named. Eeeeeeeee, I want her to win!!!
Mia picked the samba Kayla and Max did at the beginning of the season as her favourite number. I must admit, I enjoy watching Kayla dance when she isn't doing a développé every five seconds. And also when the camera doesn't linger on her trying to make a sexy face, because, ugh. No, she can't do sexy. Give her a few years and some life experience, and she might pull it off, but not yet.
Mmm, the "I Know You Want Me" group number. How could it be bad, with Janette and Jeanine dancing in water, on tables? Yum, this was damn hot.
Caitlyn and Jason doing Bollywood! I remember that I thought their movements weren't as sharp as I thought they should be the first time, but they were great this time. Seems I was on to something!
First cut is Kayla! Phew, that means she won't be winning, so I'm satisfied. Actually, the only reason I would have wanted her to win would have been to see her grandfather weep tears of joy, because how adorable is he? Cutest grandpa ever. <3
Heeee, the butt routine! Randi is just too lovely. This always makes me smile, it's so light-hearted and funny and perfect.
Jeanine and Brandon and the paso doble. Guhuhuh, Jeanine in sexy black pleather. :D~~~
Aaaaaaand, Evan is out! Come on, let the winner be Jeanine! Don't have voted stupidly, American public!
Next up is the addiction routine, featuring Kayla and Kupono. All right, she has more depth than I give her credit for. But I still would have been deeply annoyed, had she won! *sticking to her guns*
Seriously, "Rage Boyz Crew", or however it's spelled, you couldn't be less rage-y if you tried! *rolls eyes* They're cute, I'll give them that, but the name is just stupid. And having the little kids up front is a good idea so that you can see them, but then you can't see the taller guys doing acrobatics in the back.
Ooh, Janette and Brandon doing the disco! :D Janette's hair looks awesome like that, and the routine is so much fun! ^o^
Melissa and Ade dancing Tyce's breast cancer number. Very cool, the good news Tyce had to share!
Mia's Chorus Line number, and I liked it better this time. The first time I saw it I didn't really get it, though I think that was partially the fault of the camera work, which didn't let me appreciate the group work in it. Loved that the judges come in at the end. XD
JEANINE WON!!!!!!!!! My face is like ":D" right about now. :D :D :D :DDDDD
