[Lyrics: Romanization] Amayumerou

First romanization? Let's hope it's right!
[Kagamine Rin・Hatsune Miku] Amayumerou
Music/Lyrics: Hitoshizuku-P
Illustration: Suzunosuke
Mix: Yama△


Romaji
Hakanai kotoba ne
"Mukae ni iku yo…matteite"
Toki o kasane kisetsu ga megutte mo, mada
Shinjite matteru

Harari yuki ga mau yozora hokorobita kimono o kite
Furueru kata o yose au mazushii kodokuna osanago

Akaruku warau hitomi wa utsumu kiureu hitomi wa
Tagai no kizu o utsushite ikiru koto o chikatta

Yoiyami ni sasou wa oiransou
Amai mitsu ni mau yoru no chou
Kireina kimono nabikasete
Midarete (Sakasete)
Dare yori kagayaku hana ni natte miseru

Nee, hakanai kotoba ne
"Zutto, issho ni iyou ne"
Kisetsu ga megutte, otona ni natte mo mada
Shinjite ii no?

Ano hi kara subete, hajimatta
Yuugure ni somaru yakusoku
Sabishii kokoro, kizukarenu you ni
Samenai yume ni oboreteru

Tasogare ni somaru machi de hitoshirezu ni koi o shita
Omoi o tsugeru koto sae kanawazu ni tada mitsumeru

Yasashiku warau hitomi no saki ni hohoemu sono hana
Hisoyakana koigokoro wa oto o tatete kuzureta

Omoi omoware ga tokoyo no shirabe
Iro naki yami no gensou yo
"Aisareru" no ga "shiawase" naraba
Watashi wa… (anata wa...)
Dare yori zutto shiawase na hazuna no ni

Aa hakanai kotoba ne
"Mukae ni iku yo...matte ite"
"Aishiteiru" to iwareru tabi ni
Ikiru kachi, tashikamete

"Demo, sorenara naze ima sugu ni
Saratteitte kurenai no…?"
Komiagete kita munashii sakebi wa
Kotoba ni dekizu kieteitta

Yoake totomoni kieteku (Nisemono no ai no mukuro)
Subete ga yume datta nara (Nakanaide irareta no ni)
"Itsumade mo matteru kara" (Yoiyami ni chikatta yakusoku wa)
Hakanai hana totomoni kieta

Tooi hi no yuugure yakusoku oboetteru?
"Futari de narande arukou ne"
Kitto, itsuka

Aa hakanaku kietetta
Karen'na hana to hatsukoi yo
Kisetsu ga megutte otona ni natte mo
Naoranai kizuato nokoshite

Yuugure no natsu no hi kanawanai yakusoku o ima
Watashi wa hitori tatta hitori de
Ate mo naku machi tsuzukeru

Yuugure ni chikatta mama
Subete ga yume datta nara…

[Programs] Dare I buy CS5?

At my college, the various versions of
Adobe Creative Suite 5 are now on sale
for 80% off with proof of academic ID.
This takes the usual price of around $1699 and makes it $385.
It is very tempting.
However, when I went to the store,
they recommended that we held off
until Adobe Acrobat X was out.
Strangely enough, the CS that I wish to buy
(Production Premium, the violet one),
does not even come with Acrobat.
Huh...?

If I do invest in it,
I finally get Photoshop, Premiere, and After Effects.
I would also get some recording software,
which could probably come in handy.

I made a comment about it on Facebook.
Many of my friends are telling me to go at it as soon as possible.
xD
I guess it's time to make some room on my dear little Zakuro
(the name of my computer).

I am holding off for now
because I want to play with After Effects a little bit.
I downloaded a trial version and I've yet to start it,
so I still have my trial at full.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In other news, I have updated "Fushigi Kokoro".
Rin was missing some shadows, but they are back now.

Also, hurr durr, I want to draw a Venomania crack picture...
And maybe something /not/ Vocaloid.
"Alice or Guilty", perhaps?

[Art/Program] Kokoro/Iroha Demo

I was listening to Shimoda Asami singing Kokoro live, and her outfit was sooooooo cute, I decided to put it on Rin.
This picture can be found here at deviantART.
-------------------
My Iroha demo ran out. :<
I have Conchita done, I just need to make the movie. So I have one song by her.
Now, if only I could get things done with Sonika...

[VCC] Referral

Are you a western (non-Japanese) Vocaloid or UTAU producer?
Do you like to write songs and lyrics but have no way for people or androids to sing them?
Do you draw Vocaloid/UTAU art?

If you meet any or all of these requirements, feel free to join us at the Vocaloid Creativity Community forums!

Purpose copypasta-ed from the Vocaloid Wikia:

The board was constructed to not only promote original western Vocaloid and UTAU producers and artists, but also to strongly encourage group efforts, joint projects and collaboration on songs and PVs.

Amongst some of the western producers on YouTube and also the western Vocaloid collaboration group ResoNation the argument arose, that the western community of Vocaloid producers and artists was far too loose and uninvolved with each other, unlike the Japanese competition which had firm and structured organisation over Piapro and Nico Nico Douga.

Thus the issue arose that the western community might also need a similar hub where producers could interconnect and more easily bind together for projects.

We are always looking forward to having more people who are willing to join and collaborate with us!

[PV WIP] Storyboard

This is what I've been working on all day.
It's a storyboard for a PV I want to start working on.
The version I have is in color, but I made it grayscale on here as to prevent too much getting leaked.
However, if you can read my crappy handwriting and know Japanese, you might be able to figure it out.

I wonder what story will be told~ wktk~ xD

Present Projects

- Birthday series
I don't know how long I want to do these for (at least one year for certain), but, when a new Vocaloid is released or it's the anniversary of their release, I draw up a "birthday" pic.
Done so far: Gumi, Gakupo, Lily, Miku
Next: Iroha (10/22), Meiko (11/5)
(I completely and utterly deny Gachapoid's existence. I'm sorry, but no.)

- Character Designs
I am working on character designs for someone's drama that they want to do. However, now I fear that it might be dropped. We'll see what happens.

- Fanmade PVs
These are PVs I am working on or want to start working on. They are typically kept under wraps, although I have announced one. Work on it is on hiatus because I'm waaaaay to busy to focus on all parts, and I kinda want to restart it.

Announced: "Usotsuki no Parade" - supercell feat. Hatsune Miku
Unrevealed: A machigeriita-P song
Potential: A X-Plorez song (Pfft, this one is so easy. xD)

- Vocaloid Works
Sonika:
- Cover Song "Akujikimusume Conchita" - Editing Phonemes
- Cover Song 2 - Working on .vsq
- Original Song keyword "Afternoon" - Lyrics done, working on music
- Original Song keyword "Carpool" - Lyrics done, working on music
- Original Song keyword "Coffee" - Working on lyrics
- Original Song keywords "IN CHURCH YESTERDAY~" - Working on lyrics

I also want to have her do English covers of "RIP=RELEASE" and the first three songs in the Aku no Series, all lyrics which were done by diamondenn on livejournal.

Iroha Demo:
- Cover Song "Akujikimusume Conchita" - Done, making movie
- Cover Song 2? Debating
