You're lucky. I'm with FedEx and still haven't received it.

The website said I would receive it 2 hours ago, now I'll forgive them for being a few hours late of course but unfortunately I've got exams in an hour so I hope it arrives, like, now. Otherwise I have to wait until tomorrow.

I know I'm spoiled this time, though. This is the first time I'm using FedEx instead of the regular cheap airmail, so I also know what it's like to wait much longer.

I sort of just assumed delivery to Singapore would be wuicker then to Norway, since Norway is a lot farther away. =P

Btw, it's still in the outward exchange-thingy -_-

They told me by 1030 yesterday morning, but the time was wrong, it wasn't delivered until about 6pm.

My copy dispatched from Yesasia this morning. Unfortunately, it's heading to my house in the US while I'm still stuck in the UK. Oh, well.

Anyone get their Lucky Draw prizes yet? How are they in person?

Woah, Ayu worked with some big names for this album, it seems. Though they did make a few typos... I wonder if Jaycen Joshua is the reason why Like a doll has a bit of a Western feel to it. He also mixed Dream ON.

Interesting note: Takehito Shimizu was one half of HAL. I wonder what exactly happened to HAL as a duo then? The other half of HAL, Toshiharu [HAL] Umezaki has reformed HAL it seems and they now work on rearranging classical music. http://www.garage-classics.com/creator.html

Is HAL as we knew them gone for good?!

He's a mixer who has worked with Katy Perry, Beyonce, and Rihanna among other famous pop artists, I think.
