I have two special fics related to them,.,
if you're a YamaShi or YamaChii or maybe a YamaShiChii like me,.,

then you must knows both of this Amazing fics,.,

1. YamaShi (Hana Yori Dango 3 : The Next Generation) By ButaTokki & Camsahead.

2. YamaChii (Step Brothers) By Michelle

Link: ntxoo89.livejournal.com

If you're not read it yet then why don't you try to read it,.,

Unfortunately both of this fics are not finish yet,.,
but I can tell that it's almost end,.,

Warning: The rating Both of this fics are NC (Especially YamaChii) so if you don't like reading NC or Yaoi or maybe you still underage,., you better NOT!!!

Me and My No.1

Fashion No.1

There’s no special style for me. I just follow my heart, if I want to wear some kind of clothes, I just wear it. I don’t care what are some people said about my style. Me is what am I.

Book No.1

I’m not sure what my favorite book is? because I love to read very much. I love to read manga and novel, especially about Psychology, Romance, Adventure and Horror. But from all of the books that ever read, I love to read the tetra logy of Ingo by Helen Dunmore. I think its amazing books, I love it so much. I even slept at 07.00am just to finish the 4^th book. I hope that Helen would be write the 5^th book, because I think in the 4^th book the story is not finish yet.

Movie No.1

When I was a little girl, I ever watched a movie with the title “Secret Garden” the story is about 3 children that find a secret garden. I love it so much, and until now, I still remember it clearly, although it was a long, long time ago.

Time No.1

I don’t know why? But I think I love 01.00 am. I love silent time, and at 01.00 am can find my silent time.

Place No.1

Basically, I love traveling so much. I love to find new place, there is so many place that I want to visit. But I also have one special place that I want to visit. I don’t know why since I was a little girl I feel, I have a connectivity with Greece, it’s like a Déjà vu come to me every time I saw the picture of Parthenon building and I wish that one day I’ll be there.

Play No.1

Honestly, I’m not a game-freak, but lately I just love to play Scrabble. I think that is fun, but I’m not the expert one yet. I hope I will, one day.

Number No.1

I love number 7 very much. That is my lucky number, everything about 7 is me. You know what? I was born in 7 of July (7), at 07.45 am, in Sunday (In my country, Days start from Monday. That means Sunday is the 7^th day). I think I have a strong connection with number 7.

Word No.1

“Everything must be balance. Work hard, Play hard!” For me, live must be balance, I try to enjoy my live with my own ways. If I get happiness that mean I have to ready for the sadness also.

Idol No.1

Yamada Ryosuke. For now, I absolutely crazy about him very much. He looks cool, calm and collected. Isn’t it?

Food No.1

I love everything about Beef. The taste is delicious, ehmm Yuuuummmmyyyy!

Fruit No.1

I think that Cherry is the best fruit that I have ever eat. It’s delicious fruit. And pronounce of Cherry is like my name (Chae Ry) that why I love it so much but I do luv strawberry also.

Color No.1

Honestly, I love everything about Black and White. But if I have to choose one, that mean it’s must be Gray because Black + White = Gray.

Animal No.1

Dolphin is my number one animal because she looks cute and clever. I want a dolphin as my pet, but I think it must be very hard to get it.

Flower No.1

I choose White Sakura for my number one flower. Honestly I never see the flower directly, but its looks amazing in the picture. I hope one day I could see the White Cherry Blossom directly in Japan.
