So after watching The Quiz Show ep 3 the other day, I had a thought that Narimiya Hiroki should really be a dog in real life. XD When he smiles, he looks like a dog! A really cute dog. So I proceed to googled his name and look up some more pictures of him. Today I found THIS (WARNING: SO not work safe!!!) And so I started drooling...Hey! Even my icon Hiro looks like this :O! LMAO. These photos are so hot but so wrong. I can't help it. It's pretty sexy if you ask me, and I'm not even his big fan! It's even hotter than the Yamapi or MatsuJun's Anan issue. :O

More of his Anan photoshoot from 2005, can be found here.

Oh dang, I just realized that I haven't flail on Nino for a while. XD Just downloaded the new AnS, and I just kinda did this "Kyaaa" thing coz Nino looks SO FREAKIN CUTE with his new do. I love it!


Ok, I gotta go back and start what I was doing earlier, vacuum the house. >____>

So I finally managed to read most of those fan reports for the Sho/NYCC event. I can't imagine if I actually did go to New York. Desperate I HATE the cold weather, I love crowds. I'm one of those weird people who love... a lot of people. The more the merrier. (And that's why I like Black Friday) I'd love to fangirl with other fans before the Con in the COLD and whatnot. Fun stuff you know? Anyhow,I read about how some people don't really have common sense and just push the other fans in order to get the movie tickets. And my friend's lil bro got hurt and fell down. WTF man? Pushing is NOT COOL. I'm just pissed off even though I wasn't there. The bottom line is that if you follow the rules, you'll get what you want. No need to push other people! Ugh.

But seeing Sho in this video doing that "A.Ra.Shi" hand movements just bring up a smile on my face. So freakin awesome. Oh, and that Chikubi video made me LOL big time too! XD I hope Sho heard that! And forgot to mention that Sho looks really good in that suit.

I can't wait til' the new News Zero is up! :D

I went to a JE fanmeet last SaturdayFriday. Some of us met up at a Japanese restaurant called Furaibo in Rowland Heights for lunch. A lot of us ordered their special dish chicken wings and it was very yummy. =) We took out our JE goodies such as shop photos, magazines, and uchiwas. Angela's (I think that's her name) shop photos wow me aways. She has SO much! I took pictures of her Shige's shop photos. LOL. It was too pretty. <3 After lunch we went to the mall and met with the 3 sisters there. It was funny because we just took out everything we have fangirl related and put them all on the table and fangirl away. People walk by us and just stared. I love it. =) An hour or so later, we left and headed to take some purikura. I took some with other 2 fangirls and some with my sister. After we were done with purikura, we went to a boba place and just drank and talk. It was a fun day. More fangirling this weekend! It's gonna be hardcode coz this is gonna be a Arashi's fanmeet and you know how much I love Arashi!
( fanmeet pictures )

The day before the fanmeet, I hung out with my LJ friend Michelle aka fairy_illusions. We watched the Pacific DVD and fangirl some more with my magazines. I had fun fangirling coz she's my only friend here in California who also likes Shige. Shige needs more fans here in CA! Hey, next time let's do the badminton thing! ^______^ (and more shige/ryo fangirling)

But I can't help it...




It's Mizushima Hiro in one of the mini drama series. I saw the clip of him speaking English in that drama yesterday and I knew I have to download the whole thing. Found out there's more goodness in the rest of the show. ^______^ I'll repost the video in case some of you didnt see my post in the mizushima_ruba community yesterday.
( video + caps )

I just finished watching the whole "Truth" and "Kaze no Mukou e"'s PV. Totally 2 different style of music videos but I love them both. "Truth" is the mature Arashi and yet "Kaze no~" is another cheer-me-up song. I don't think I'm gonna buy the single this time. I think I need to really like the song to an obsession statues to actually want to spend my money on a single, like "One Love". I'm a college student and very broke. T___T Or I'll just buy it when I go to Hong Kong this fall.

I hung out w/ my friend Naoko yesterday after school. We went to grab some ice cream and then headed back to her house to watch some Arashi's shows. When I first know her she doesnt even watch Arashi's related stuff. Now I got her into it and we had fun watching "D no Arashi" and "Arashi no Shukudai-kun" yesterday. Her fav is Aiba chan. :D When she went back to Japan a month ago, I told her to bring me back some magazine w/ Arashi or News on the cover. Her mom orders TV-Guide like magazines, so I told her if her mom doesnt want them, bring me back some of those... And she did! Naoko also got me some Japanese snacks. She's so nice! :D





( My Arashi's article... )

[edit: Oh yeah, I'm rocking my newly created Shige's icon. Even though this post has nothing to do w/ Shige at all. XD]

I'm suppose to be doing my hw but... Arashi's "Kaze no Mukouo e" PV preview just came out and I kinda want to blog about it. =)

First of, I didn't know there's suppose to be a PV for this song. I guess I dont pay attention enough? Hahaha. But I really like this PV because they're wearing all white/grey outfit. It's a very clean and simple PV. A lot of Sho's arm (which I LOVE!), Jun's weird scarf thing(I kinda hate), Aiba's white shirt and tie (so handsome), Ohno's black hair (nice as usual), and Nino with his guitar (SO CUTE).

Sho's pants are really tight... But I think I like it. XD





( SHO'S ARMS! SHO'S ARMS! )

And where the heck did Shige go during "Summer Time"? He just disappeared. XD Kei chan has a nice outfit as always. A short sleeve suit. Oh, great summer time outfit! XD No, I really like it. Shige looks kakkoi with that white shirt and vintage jeans outfit. <3

I finally approve that blonde hair. It looks good on him. *faints*

Shige's big day is today! Yays~ I'm so happy for him to finally turn 21! He's legal now! XD I'll have to say he's my fav in News (Ryo chan gomen ne~) I started to like him after "Aim for the stars". So it has been about a year or so. I love love love his hair. It's the reason I started to pay attention to him. Then later on it lead me to his essays, videos, and so on. He's just so smart and charming. I hope he'll get the card that I made for him, and get to read every single messages so he know we all love him to death! :D I LOVE YOU SHIGE! Happy 21st!

*Edit: Does any of you have this picture (the one I used in the banner)? I want it high res coz it's one of my fav picture of him. Thank you so very much! *hugs*

I'm (or my sign) in the HYDF photobook! I was just looking through the scans of the photobook, then I decided to zoom in into this one picture that I thought I'm in the background. And guess what?! I was right! My sign is next to Jun's head! Yatta~ ^O^



I was like, "Ummm, what is that yellow and pink thing next to his head? Could that be my sign?" *clicks through my Vegas pictures and checks* YESSS! My sign is in fact yellow and pink! Hahaha. So freakin awesome!



Just the simplest thing makes me happy. XD
Shige's b-day is in couple of days. I wonder what I'm gonna do for him...

So I got back from Vegas on Tuesday night. Got to see the fountain show at Bellagio! I go to Vegas every year but my family always miss it. So after seeing the HYDF photobook, I knew I had to go visit it somehow! :D The show was awesome! I loved it so much. It made me want to see the movie like RIGHT NOW. T___T
( Only if Jun was there with me~ )

So this meme had been on my mind for a while. Finally today I got to do it! Let's just get to it! :D
( picture meme that took me a while to finish... )

I feel totally stupid. I checked my e-mail and I saw a Alex Ago dude sent me a message, the title is " A special message from Jun Matsumoto". And I thought to myself, "This is totally spam." So I sent it to my spam folder. Then I checked my LJ, and someone posted mentioned it! I read it and I was SO SHOCKED. Jun is such a sweetheart! I feel like hugging him. XD He totally made my day. <3 And I had a pretty good day too, so he just made it even better. :D

Here is what Jun want us to know:
"To Those Who Attended the Special Screening of “The Hidden Fortress: The Last Princess” at the University of Southern California:

I would like to express how grateful I was to see that so many of you had participated in the special screening of our movie at the distinguished University of Southern California. Your warm welcome greatly moved me.

The discussion session I had with all of you after the screening became a valuable experience. I wished to talk to more of you, but with limited time, I could not answer to all the raised hands and that is something I still regret, even now. The messages I received were all enormous encouragement to me and along with your smiles I will cherish them for the rest of my life.

I am looking forward to returning to Los Angeles after much practice and learning. I hope to join you once again for a wonderful session under the beautiful California sun.

Sincerely,
Jun Matsumoto"

Jun is so freakin kawaii. I love him!

Oh, I got a haircut today. My friend Ari did it! Thank you! ^____^

I watched this last night. I didn't make fun of their dance anymore because I thought it's kinda cute (in some parts).




Although I still think the hand part sucks. That part makes me laugh the most... XD



( Oh Kei chan you're adorable )

Yesterday was so much fun! I know other fangirls had post about their experience and I thought about how I suck at writing but heck, I’m just gonna get it down on paper internet so I can remember this forever, and ever. I didn't realize how LONG this post it until I copy and paste it from my Word document. I hope some of you will read it somehow.

So basically I think last night was SO WORTH IT. My mission for this event was to see some MatsuJun’s teeth. Yes, his teeth (which is also his big smile). I didn’t see that enough last time in Vegas. And this time, my dream came true. It completely made me realize what an awesome fandom this is. I’m so glad Jun brought me to the Arashi’s fandom, that lead me to meeting other wondering people! MatsuJun, I really want to say Thank You, because I haven’t been this happy since… the last time I saw you two months ago. Hahaha. I’m so determine that Arashi will eventually come to the States, and of course, a world tour, it’s just a matter of time. And now what I have to do is to make more people like Arashi so they’ll become more popular here!

( I can't believe I typed this much )

Yatta!

-Yesterday I was soooo happy. My friend Reiko bought me the Arashi's "Step and Go" limited edition and it got in the mail!!!(Well, as many of you know, I don't buy CDs. Ok, except when they're REALLY cheap. I don't even buy Arashi's CDs. Why? They're kinda expensive. So when I go back to MY Hong Kong, I can buy as much as I want without paying too much.) I watched the DVD, didn't understand much of it. I will have to download that subbed version that's out recently to be able understand it to the full effect. =P But watching Arashi's faces on my TV high def does feel kinda good.

-I bought Do As Infinity's live 2004 CD today. It's really good. Van chan's vocal is excellent as always. She never disappoints me, ever. It has some of my fav songs on it too. ^___^ I got it for $3 w/ 2 CDs! Now, that's REALLY cheap.

-I finally listened to "Dream 'A' Live" 3 times. My fav will have to be track 4 to like 6. Ok sorry I still don't remember all the names of the songs. Track 2 REALLY bugs me. I don't know why. Maybe I'll give it another try later. But I'll have to say Aiba's solo is one of my fav. It's just catchy! I didn't like Sho's and Nino's solo that much. Sorry guys. Oh, saw the CD in store today. It costs $38!!! O___O How much did you guys pay for it?

-And yes, I know how NEWS's "Summer Time" is SOOO adorable. I wanna hug my screen as well. The first time I finished watching it, I felt like I needed to squeeze someone. And I think I STILL wanna squueze someone because everyone were just way too natural and cute. It's like Arashi's "Happiness" PV but on a different take. Ryo chan, Shige, Kei chan were just... kawaii. You just need to watch it yourself!

-Lastly, 3 more days until I see Jun, again! How crazy is that? I need to go make a sign later. I thought about bring the same banner I had in Vegas, but it might be too big to carry around? I don't know. I'm determine to make a cuter one. :D

*[EDIT:]* My Facebook friend Marisa messaged me today saying how her friend in Japan is a childhood friend of Shige. And he'll introduce her to him?! WHATTTTT? *freaks out* Shigeaki Kato? *rolls on the floor* No way! I told her if she ever get a chance to see Shige, please tell him that he has a big fan in California and her name is Cecilia. Hahaha. I don't know what I'd do if I see Shige in person. Apparently I didn't pass out seeing Jun in person, I think I'll be okay seeing Shige. LOL.

I have a LIST of things I still have to watch and download. But I finally finished downloading the first part of Arashi's Time DVD, "Last Friends" ep 1 hardsubbed, and the News' Russ-K CM. I just finished watching "Absolute Boyfriend" on youtube. Still disappointed how the girl doesn't have long hair and she doesn't go to high school. And kinda upset how Hiro is not wearing glasses like the manga (well, I think I'll get over it soon). Next episode looks like there're gonna be more Hiro screen time! Yaysss! *dancing around*

Thank you for Hiro. I still have TONS of homework to do, but he made my day a little better. Watch this! ( New Video of Hiro speaking English! )

I have to go to sleep right now, but I guess I'll post real quick coz today was one of the best day ever! I love my JE fandom <3 Too much fangirling.

1) Yamapi on the Russ-k's ad was neat. He looks really good. I hardly fangirl Pi these days, today is the day. :D
2) This issue of Duet Hiro is looking damn FINE. I really can't wait to see his drama, "Absolute Boyfriend". I just read the first manga and it's so funny and cute. <3 Thanks oystersauce87 You're awesome!
3) Shige in Seventeen magazine. Oh Shige honey, you look so cute in yellow. And those little cute faces that you make in your photo shoots, make me melt. XDDD
4) Shige in glasses in "Hokaban"! Major hotness. I really looks great in those. I need to download that episode after I finish downloading all those Arashi's stuff.
5) Shige again. Too much Shige these days. Anyways, I like his pose in the Russ-k's ad! :D (Okayyy, it's just a regular standing pose, but he looks cute standing! =P)

My Shige's Taipei Con uchiwa arrived TODAY!!! I opened it in front of my sister in my room. And she saw me freakin out while opening the package. My first impression= You're so KAWAII and KAKOII! I simply LOVE IT. It was a bit expensive but I don't think I regret it. The uchiwa is bigger than I expected to be. OMG it's life size to scale= LOVE. I can make out with it before I go to bed.

Shige, you're so pretty on that uchiwa. Love ya. <3

My next target, Ryo's Taipei Con uchiwa. I'm saving it up for that! :D

So I guess I finally collected my thoughts and decided to type this out after 2 days. This entry is going to contain pictures and videos that I took on Tuesday. Since there're a lot of people who will go "OMG I TOLD YOU NO PICTURES", I would like to keep this entry friend locked coz of the content of my entry. (I dont care anymore.) I would like to ask none of you guys post my pictures or videos on other sites. That being said, here's what happened on Tuesday, one of the happiest day of my life...
( YAYS )
