The COS- The Church of Shinoda

I've missed you guys too! I was on vacation with my family for the 4th of July and I'm so glad to be back now.

 

Well since I am the photographer, I've got pictures from the live earth show. I have to say it looks like Mike is growing his hair back, well you can take a look for yourself.

lmao awesome pics as usual andrea!! ^^ Yay Mike's growing his hair again... or is it that he's just too busy to get a haircut? Or is he just imitating Brad? haha Brad tries to tame his hair with a hairband... but fails miserably. I love Joe and his bedhead and his upside down sign... they look like criminals haha and is Chester kissing the plant?

 

Ahem. Back on topic (ie Mike), he looks so retardedly immature in the last five pics lmao. So cute.

^^ In the first of the five he smiles as if he's five years old and someone just complimented on his work or gave him a new bike or something.

 

btw anyone can read what Mike's sign says? something paper... lol I love Phi's: "Biomass Plastic Can". While Joe's just says "Can".

[MrsBennington-Delson]

thanks for the pics!! they're awesome!! adn so funny

[andrea]

Now that I take a look. I think it says paper.

I just love the pics from the Live Earth concert in Tokyo.

[littleblackstone]

omfg andrea, are u trying to kill me???? these pics are absolutely GREAT!!!! THANKZZ dear!!!

 

and please, dont be naughty (this is mine) and show me all you've written about Mike.. of course, if you want it. Maybe it's so personal and of course,it isnt of my incumbency to know it, But you should know something: you're not mad... and if people thin kthis about you, you should be glad. Look into the history (although, I know it, you dont like it), all genius were mad (Copernicus, Gallilleo, Columbus, Platoon...), but now look at them, They're our history's pillars. So, let them to call you crazy, and why not? isnt beautiful ot be mad of someone so handsome as him?? I'm proud to say I'm mad of Mike Shinoda. What's wrong of say this? Can you hurt someone? Can you kill him? I dont think so... maybe you, we, can be a little bit heavy for Mike (even more, if he reads this) but, he called us, remember?

So, I'll give you a friendly advice: if you want to do something, dont think too much about it; just do it!!

 

That's what i'm gonna do.. cause i want to share this with all of u...

i know this is the most stupid thing i'v ever writen, but i don't care... lolol

 

You are my God

You are my inspiration

You are my life

You are my salvation

 

You are my dream

You are my fire

You are my breath

You are my desire

 

You are the reason

Why I keep living

You are the reason

My heart is beating

 

Please, I ask you

Hear my confession

I've never seen

Such a perfection...

Yor're the one who deserves

My entire love and passion.

 

And I'm waiting for so long

For that day to come

I need to touch you,

See you, hear you,

Before I come undone.

 

Please, don't wake me now

Please, I beg you!

Only in my dreams

Souls come together

And our hearts

Are free to beat forever.

 

So please, don't wake me

I'm living a dream...

We are in this world

Where you are the King

And I am the Queen!

 

Come to me, my love

Come closer

And hold my hand...

Only you can help me

Getting rid of this pain

That I can't stand.

 

Only in my dreams...

Cause the truth is

I'll remain here

Lonely and forgotten

Waiting for nothing

For all eternity.

 

When suddenly

I wake and see

That you're not here,

But you're always with me

Your voice on my mind

Makes me feel alive

Cause only you

Can make it anytime

I feel dead inside.

[Usiel]

I just love the pics from the Live Earth concert in Tokyo.

 

Yes, dear... I totally agree with you: these pics are absolutely AMAZING!! (I wonder what Mike was reading... well, you see I'm curious), but anyway, these pics are great (THANkS ANDREA... your "job" cannot be better... seriously, if I were you, I'll send my CV to the National Geographic magazine... but, if you do this, please dont forget us... we need you!! We need our corresponsal in pics!

 

 

Well, today I've a Gadget inspector soul, and, well, looking everywhere I've found out this nice image..isnt nice the little tiger? isnt AWESOOMMEEEEEEEEEEEE Mike with this (ejem, ejem) MARVELLOUS smile???? I know, there is just a problem that spoils the pic: What Ana is doing there??? She shouldnt be there (although, I've to recognize, I'm sorry my funny angel, Littleblackstone... well, I'm sorry by us!! But she is quite pretty) but, anyway, She shouldnt touch Mike by his waist (although, I've to recognize too :'( she is her wife so she is in her right to do this... but what about his angels??? :'( .... and there is another fault, the boy... well, try to see just Mike and the nice "kitty"...

AHHHHH!! oH, MY GOD... Littleblackstone... seriously now, I think I'm going to leave COS forever. I cant breath relaxed with so many pics, so many feeling expressed here :'( . When I've finished to read your poem, I had my heart drowned me and my tears were near running along my face to smash in my hands : what a fantastic poem, with so much feelings: hope, sweet, love, sadness, happiness... you're better than.. well, I cant say "me", cos I'm nobody if I compare myself with you... and it's a honour to have in front of me a "Shakespeare"... I can say that my "little Shakespeare" is in love.

[littleblackstone]

that pic is awesome.. and Mike is beautiful as always!!

:'( yes, angel... i feel the same when i see Anna with our wonderful God, but unfortunately, there's nothing we can do to change that... well...

 

actually, i've (FINALLY!!) bought "The Rising Tied", and do u know what he said on thanks?? something like this:

"Thanks to Anna, for being so supportive and for being such an inspiration."

:'( i was near to cry when i read that... do u understand me, dont you?? i mean, of course i want Mike to be happy with her, but.. i just cant help of feeling this... but it's alright..

 

oohhhh, sweet, don't say that please!!!! i've just write that sh*t in a moment when I was very very emotive.. that's why it is (almost..) good, and it express very well all of my feelings... in that day i was very inspired.. i can't even believe that was me who has writen that but u see, Mike is my (our?) inspiration!!

[andrea]

Usiel, what Mike is reading in those photos is the speech he did in Japanese.

[LPShinodaFM]

Such a cute tiger ^^

Such a cute Mike ^^

 

Such... cough.. Anna... cough... cough... such closeness... cough...

 

If the tiger wasn't in the picture I'd be in tears. well, :[ Of course we understand you littleblackstone, we're all in the same boat. Having such devotion for Mike is difficult, but we will carry on, lol. Because whatever he does, Mike is worthy of everything we do. :]

 

P.S. Andrea if i can hug you, I will, but I can't. So I'll cyberhug you for all these wonderful pics!! *cyber-hugs* haha

[littleblackstone]

He was so young back then. ahem, before he got married... But on a brighter tone... I loved his hair back then. I absolutely loved his hair. haha, then i loved his cap.

He got married young actually and this was back in 2003 I believe. I love the word Shinoda-hair lol.

[andrea]

Actually, that picture was back in 2001. Mike got married in 2003, four years ago, so he was only 26. Anyways, sorry to have to shove that in your face girls, hope your not mad, haha. But yeah, love the hair and I miss it, I do hope he's growing it out. Lets just hope Brad hasn't rubbed off on him, :-P.

 

EDIT: Found a HQ photo of the MTM Party:

Purdy picture ^^ cough, in my world, Mikey is single. haha.

 

Oh gotta tell you guys, Bandmerch... after 3 months... FINALLY delivered my Mike Shinoda art book. Well it was.... smaller than I imagined ^^ but the paintings are awesome :] (What else was expected?) But text/photo wise there was minimal, as expected in art books.. hehe... but just to show how many people love our Mike, here's the "About the Artist" section written by Mike's art school room mate.

 

 

"Mike and I were roomates in art school and I knew right away he would find success, whether it would be through art or music. Sometimes people ask me why I think Mike is so accomplished. The answer is simple: he's the hardest worker I've ever met. Our last couple of semesters Mike would go to class, usually 9am to 4pm. Then, he would do his homework, usually six hours a day, then he would go to the band's practice studio. The problem was, the studio locked its doors from 2am to 8am - no one could get in or out. So Mike would take a toothbrush and his pillow, work all night, then catch a few hours of sleep before they opened up the doors so he could leave.

 

There are a lot of musicians who also paint, but in contrast, Mike could be a painter whose music is his hobby. The talents and skills are equal in both. His painting is a partner to his music and they are similar in many ways. His music is a mixture of many different types of sounds: there's hip hop and metal, but also touches of electronic and classical. The paintings are also a mixture of many influences. You can see the street art references and influence of his Japanese heritage, but he also employs traditional painting methods.

 

Mike Shinoda is truly a creative individual, always changing and evolving, and in my opinion, you ain't seen nothing yet."

 

- Corey Sandelius

 

In three words, "Mike is amazing."

 

EDIT: I am sorry but I most absolutely MUST present this video... me heart beat again... ^^

 

 

LOVED his hair, he's so friggin cute. Every single movement. The way he moved his hands, the way he scratched his nose, AND HOLY SHIT OMFG The way he stroked his friggin goatee... DAMN I miss that hot piece of facial Shinoda-hair... and his freakin shinoda-grin... holy crap.. i love his face. That asian/caucasian mix is killing me. Like he faces you with that totally caucasian (i'm not kidding he DOES look Russianish) look... then he turns and his Japanese-ness just slaps you and you ask God (while his existence is questionable, you gotts ask someone right? so you ask God) "Why the hell did you make such a perfect man?"

 

I'm gonna burst if i don't release some noise from my vocal chords...

[MrsBennington-Delson]

*bumps in*

a lil pic for you

[Usiel]

yes it is!!!!!!!!!

 

 

Oh, so, Does he speak Japanise?? That's wonderful!! Me too, well, actually, I should say "me too" :o . Three years ago, when I was in England (learning this horrible british english I have now... british english with a "nice and sweet" american accent if I believe my english teacher... I'm a monstrous speaker!! ) I met a nice japanise girl. I remember how I showed her how to dance flamenco and she showed me some japanese vocabulary...SO, LADIES, I know the exactly words if one day you meet Mike (and you're so brave to tell him this!!!

 

konitiwa, Mike... AISHITERU!!!! (hello, Mike, I love you.... "AI" means love in japanese)

 

 

@LP~Shinoda~FM hahaha... yes, it can be true, Mike is amazing (even more when you're one of the three angels... arent you? ) and I think he's lucky 'cos he has got the natural condition of being an artist... not everyone can paint a picture, not everyone can play an instrument or to write an poem as my "funny angel" did with so many feelings, feelings which she has transmited to us and we can feel them as they were our. I think this is an artist and I think Mike knew he can be something great in the art's world. He knew it and for this reason he "fought" to get his dreams come true... and look at him now, he has got it and I think this one of the most important thing he is proud about himself... at least, this one of the things his eyes tell me: I've worked so hard, but I've got my dream

[LPShinodaFM]

He's one of those who's actually gotten to the top. :] But it's just sad how so many people who works just as hard with just as much inspiration are not recognized and ends up starving...

 

Ahem, on a brighter note. Wouldn't it be easier if we just spoke English? Haha ^^ But yea, just the fact that Mike is half Japanese makes him all the more sexier. Speaking of Japan... I'm not Japanese, but I have actually, spent some of my childhood in Japan. (But don't ask me Japanese because I've mostly forgotten. I'd recognize some things by hearing but just insignificant parts hah)

 

I love how Mike is so hybrid in every single way. His background, music, art, everything. They're so intricatingly formed together to ravel into his unique style. I love it. His art makes me think, his music makes me feel. His face makes me heart beat. <3 lol

[littleblackstone]

Love that vid littleblackstone!!

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________

 

well, i'v got a new one..... i now it's more stupid than the other, but... i hope u understand me...

 

I love you!

This is the truth.

You don't know me

But I want you!

 

I love you!

What more can I say?

You're everything I want

But there's no way...

 

There's no way to reach you

I know it very well

But when I hear your voice

I can't help of feeling it...

And I'm going straight to Hell!

 

I'm already in Hell

Burning in flames

I deserve it, I know

But it's something you can't blame

Cause I love you more than ever

And I'm not ashamed

 

I'm burning in Hell

But you take me to Heaven

Even you're not with me

You're the only man

Who can make it real

And I can't change what I feel

 

But to me you're not real...

You're not real and I cry

I cry 'till I close my eyes

And I ask myself: why?!

 

Why I can't reach you?

Why you're not with me?

Why am I suffering

For what I see?

 

I know it's impossible

I know it's just a dream...

It hurts so much

So I don't want to see

I just keep hearing

Your wonderful voice

Which makes me feel complete

 

I'm calling to you

But it is useless...

You'll never hear me

But my heart still beats

And this passion is senseless

 

But after all...

I love you!

This is a fact

I cannot hide

And you can be sure

I'll love you till I die!

[Usiel]

dont be a silly girl, my funny angel!! I dont deserve him more than you why? well, first one: I dont speak japanese... I speak spanish and english... well, I should say "english". I just only know some japanese word... disastrous. Second one: I dont deserve him more than you or another 'cos... well, if I meet him, he'd think I'm mad (I'm sure, he'd run away!! hahaha... he'd run away from me while he'd sing: I wanna run away, and never say goodbye (I wonder if he'd even say to me: hi!)...) and the third one: I dont deserve him more than you 'cos I wont meet him... how will I meet him if you're going to kill me with such AWESOME words??? seriously, even the best pic of Mike cant surpass your poems!! Even his presence in front of me cannot surpass the feelings what I feel when I read this (most of them, 'cos I would faint, so I wouldnt feel anything!! :o ). people here say I write very nice things... they're wrong. they say this 'cos they havent read what you've written here. C'mun, my angel, dont be negative, dont choose the wrong way. Believe in yourself and in what you've done it because you do it very well... who knows? maybe one day you're who write the lyrics for Mike's raps :thumbsup:

 

 

 

Look at him!! Even Mike believes in you!! are you going to dissapointed him?
