Ga-gaaan

Perhaps manga fans are familiar with these Japanese language onomatopoeias, gaan, ga-gaan that show strong shock, awe (or disappointment).

I know I'm so behind, but that's how I feel about Lady Gaga lately - struck by a mix of flashlights and rainbows altogether.

By the way, the phrase 'gaga over gaga' had nearly 40 million Google results so far.

There's no privacy. No voyeurism either.

Piranha:

Foreign word in a Japanese dictionary that is the closest to my family name.

I wonder if there's anyone who, as a way to easily memorize my name, associates me with the sharp-toothed Amazon fish.
