Well, seems like it's not just me. Everyone else is experiencing the same problem. Sync problems. I guess there's nothing for us to do but to wait till Google fixes the problem!

[Lyrics] 14 to 1 (Fuuto 風斗 ver.)
Posted by
Unknown
Description: Kanji lyrics, Romaji lyrics and English translated lyrics of 14 to 1 (Fuuto ver.).
Note: Lyrics taken from booklet. The parts in brackets ( ) in the English translation are there to help the meaning flow smoother.
The key thing to note in Fuuto's version is that, as per his character, he says things pretty bluntly and straight forwardly, which may, at times, sound rude.

This song was an absolute torture to listen to! Yuusuke is tone deaf. z_z
I blame the character not the seiyuu. Hosoya actually has a pretty nice singing voice, try Kimi no Iru Machi's first ED song.
So let's just get this translation over and done with, so I can move on to translate Fuuto's version, which is much smoother to the ears.

The key thing to note in Yuusuke's version is that he uses "だ" to end his sentences, which is a more direct form of talking, ie. the way you would talk to your friends and family (without formality), as opposed to using the polite form "です".
Ubuntu 13.10 is out and I didn't even know
Posted by
MegaBubbletea
Canonical recently rolled out the latest OS from its roster, Ubuntu 13.10, now available for desktop and smartphones users. The release also comes with a range of mobile core apps made by the Ubuntu developer community, with the list including a browser, calendar, clock, weather app as well as a calculator.
For one thing, I didn't even know Ubuntu 13.10 was releases until today! The release must have been dead quite compared to previous releases or that I haven't been keeping up with my Ubuntu news. But the new version includes some changes (although minor) that will benefit the Linux community greatly.
The updated OS also introduces Smart Scopes into the Dash search option. With this feature, any query that is typed into the Dash Home by the user will be picked up by the Smart Scope server. The latter will then determine which categories of content is the most relevant. The server will also constantly improve the results by learning which categories and results are most helpful to the user over time.

Ubuntu – The World’s Most Popular Linux Distro Turns 9 Years Old
Posted by
MegaBubbletea
It was on this very day back in 2004 that Mark Shuttleworth took to the Ubuntu mailing list to announce the inaugural release of Ubuntu 4.10 – codenamed the ‘Warty Warthog’ due to its rough edges.
Nine years, and some nineteen releases on, the Ubuntu desktop we find ourselves sat in front of today bears little resemblance to that of its younger self. The distro went, virtually overnight, from a Debian-based curiosity – “A space tourist making a Linux distro?!” – to becoming one of the most recognisable and powerful forces in open-source software.

Pokemon XY - Episode 1+2 [v.P]
Posted by

The new Pokemon anime series, Pokemon XY, was aired last night.
I'm extremely grateful for subbing-translation teams working hard to get this anime out! (There's no English subs out yet, I watched Chinese subs.)
There was a special double episode airing.
I really miss watching Pokemon. It was one of my main childhood memories - eating breakfast while watching Pokemon.

Cosplayer appreciation post: Reika

Reika is an amazing Japanese cosplayer. She did all of these UtaPri cosplays herself! (You really can't tell that these are all the same person!)
She makes all of her own costumes and props.
She's been invited to numerous overseas events, and hopefully one day she can make her way to Australia! Last weekend, she was at Taiwan.
Her singing is pretty good as well.
You should check out her SnK cosplays too!

Rovio is also telling us up front that the game will be free-to-play, with several game modes and features included from the start. But we know there will be some kind of catch here, and can expect things such as kart customizations and unlocks to be managed through in-app purchases.
Ready to play? Rovio says that the game will be hitting Android (as well as other platforms) on December 11th.

[Life] Time to throw my creativity into the new anime season
Posted by
Unknown
Friends, I have decided. The fandom/anime I will throw myself into this season (ie. create fanart and what not) will be MEGANEBU! So keep an eye out for my future works. :)
Meganebu! is one of those animes that you will either love or hate.
The story is so ridiculously stupid (It's about 5 highschool boys who wears glasses and their interactions with each other; the story summary sounds boring, but they include jokes and emotional backstories), the art is so blinding (in terms of the colours used and drawing style), and everything seems so random.
Nevertheless, I fell in love with this series at first sight, and I think this anime deserves more love.

[Life] This is a blog post

While I was afk at dinner tonight Megabubbletea messaged me, asking me if I could make a post on our blog today because he won't get home until much later. Of course I was happy to post. Unfortunately, Blogger is being stubborn tonight and won't let me upload pictures (I'm too lazy to learn html codes). So tonight you get to read this block of boring text instead of seeing pictures of bishies.
Let's see, what to talk about... Ah yes, I was chatting with Serah today and asked how her cosplay costume making was coming along since the event is about a month away, at which point she exclaimed: "Oh bugger(?), I forgot to ask <insert name> for her sewing machine. I should go do that soon."
Ack, I'm out of topics. Oh, hmm, well I'm currently seeking Namiwaka Daisuke's latest single "Jump Out Loud" and my searches haven't been successful, so I would be really happy if someone can find a source for the CD and let me know about it.
Ah yes, did anyone watch the Makai Ouji Niku Nama on Friday night (just passed)? It was really funny watching 5 men (Kakki, Terashi, Egu, Matsuoka and JunJun) spend under 1.5 hours eating yakiniku and drinking beer. Kakki downed 4 cups of beer within the first 45 minutes. Terashi ended up feeding Kakki his first piece of meat. Matsuouka was really quiet as usual and mostly focused on cooking meat for JunJun. Egu didn't eat much, despite him yelling out that he was really hungry.
Alright, this should be a long enough post. And since the latest Magi episode finished downloading, I'm off to watch Magi!

Have you ever watched those electronic gadget unboxing videos floating around the internet? Well you will feel right at home watching this parody unboxing video about calculators! Boring as it sounds, it is actually quite an entertaining video as the reviewer in the video dryly explains the functionality and tests on the three calculators featured in the video. Give the video a go, and I'm sure you would find it humorous.

The difference between Cosplay makeup fails and wins: Contouring
Posted by
Serah
Cosplay update: I've been AWOL for awhile, collecting stuff, making stuff and trialing stuff for my second cosplay (hopefully a win). I've taken quite a lot of photos of the costume creation process, makeup trials process etc etc. But not wanting to spoil mah super surprise post, I've just decided to gather all this and last months stuff into one super big post on the whole process. Hopefully I'll be able to help some people out...
Anyhoow I'm here to discuss the findings of my most recent makeup trial. Contouring.
I know, I know, I've talked about it before, but hopefully this photo will convince you of the necessity of contouring your face up for a photoshoot or a cosplay.
Crud. It's a little blurry, but if you note my make up-ed side of my face, you'll see much more shadows and it looks more three dimensional. (Plus my eye seems to have grown a size. BTW Great eye makeup tutorial here: http://wenqiann.deviantart.com/art/Cosplay-eye-makeup-tutorial-351629070)
Anyway, point is. No matter how awesome your costume is, the finishing touch is the makeup.
Stuff to contour with:
-Bronzer
-Eyeshadow
-Actual contour-highlight palettes
Contour/Highlight Tick-off list:
-Nose bridge: (Contour both sides and highlight the middle)
- Just under the cheekbones for a slimmer looking face.
-Highlight your chin
-Highlight under your eyes.
-Highlight the middle of your forehead.
-Highlight Brow bone
