Although it's still noon on the 31st here, Happy New Year! 8D
Everyone is out having fun at the Arashikai without me, Game Nikki is ending for real this time, woe woe woe is me, life is so horrible. But then! My favorite person in the world, the mailman, arrived. He had a package. A package from CDJapan. With the Hidden Fortress DVD.
BEST MOVIE EVER.
No, really.
I love this movie.
Everything I said here, I would like to say again. Forget Matsujun, forget Daisuke, Abe, and Masami. I just love this movie, and I'm sure I would love it no matter who the actors were. It's just so exciting, and funny, the scenery is beautiful, I could go on forever. And the ending. ♥
Perhaps I'm a wimp that needs to exercise more, but the movie was just so much fun I feel worn out like I need to take a long nap. xD; Will watch the extras later. Except the LA premiere, of course. I really want to hear Jun's English again, but I realllly don't want to see myself. ;0;
I LOVE THIS MOVIE I LOVE THIS MOVIE I LOVE THIS MOVIE I LOVE THIS MOVIE I LOVE THIS MOVIE I LOVE THIS MOVIE I LOVE THIS MOVIE I LOVE THIS MOVIE I LOVE THIS MOVIE I LOVE THIS MOVIE I LOVE THIS MOVIE I LOVE THIS MOVIE I LOVE MATSUJUN I LOVE DAISUKE I LOVE THIS MOVIE I LOVE THIS MOVIE.
Oh yeah, HYDF came too. But that pales in comparison to this. xD
Yes, Best Artist was that good. I've been a little sad that Kaze has been overshadowed by Truth, even though it was a Double A side single. To tell the truth (no pun intended. well maybe a little) I don't actually like Truth much. It's not all that Arashi-ish and they can't seem to do the choreography well. I much prefer them to do happy songs on their end of year performances, and my wish has been granted. It really was like everyone in the audience was there for Arashi. Totally awesome. Also, Shou and Kyoko just need to get married already so Shou can have the best Father-In-Law ever.
I love Arashi. ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
Ooh, and the GQ Men of the Year news. I cried a little at that too. He was wearing tails. Where's the monocle and top hat? *dies*
NAGASE TOMOYA (and Satou Ryuuta) WILL BE ON SHUKUDAI-KUN. Why isn't anyone else freaking out about this?! ← ← ←
Hey Arashi, stop overwhelming us with good news! DDDx 1, 2, 10, and 12 are totally going to be my lucky lottery numbers for 2009. Plus, Believe! From what little I've heard, it sounds great. Aaa~nd Uta no Onii-san is only a month and four days away! There's so much to look forward to lately. Life is wonderful. ♥ ♥ ♥
Except, as silly as it sounds, the one thing I'm not looking forward to is the Hidden Fortress DVD. I've already seen it and all the extras up for download on PDbox and wept on the inside. Sure, I can't wait to watch the movie again because it's the GREATEST MOVIE EVER, but I don't want anyone to watch the LA premiere extas! I'm hideous looking, don't look at me! If you consider yourself my friend, don't watch it! ← Of course putting it that way will make everyone want to watch it even more, huh. ;;; I chose to have my DVD shipped together with Hanadan, so I won't be getting it until next week at the earliest anyway. Takezo, I miss you~~
I shared Christmas pictures last year, but I've been in a festive mood lately and feel like sharing more! Not Arashi related, sorry. (but oh, how I would love to have an Arashi themed Christmas tree.)
Happy Birthday Ohno Satoshi!
No one believes you when you say you're 28, so just stop lying already! <3
You think having four singles in the yearly Oricon Top 20 would qualify someone for Kouhaku, wouldn't you? I guess not. NHK sucks. DDDD< At least, we have the other end of year shows to look forward too. I really can't wait~
Lately, I've been in a craft making mood. There is one certain piece of jewelryI have always wanted to make. I'm sure you can all guess what it is. Finally, I got the chance to make it yesterday. Whooo.
It's slightly bigger than the original, but hopefully it looks similar enough? ;_; It's not perfect, but at least I didn't have to pay the $250 or whatever the real one costs. I love you, Doumyouji, but not that much.
Also, Happy Early Thanksgiving! I'm going to be out of my mind busy baking tomorrow, help. ;;;;;
It's been exactly a month from my last post. Forgive me. ;___; Just think, if I go another month without posting, Hidden Fortress will be almost out on DVD. The thought of it almost makes me wet my pants in excitement! <-- I better stop saying that, or else it might come true one day. Dx
Been avoiding vox for a while because there's so much drama and complaining going on lately. (OMG IT'S JUST HAIR WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL.) I'm so glad I checked it today though, to find out about the Hana Yori Dango Final preorder~~~ Shipping wound up being 4300yen. This should go down in the record books as the most expensive movie of all time. *weeps bitter tears* Only for Doumyouji. <333
I had a nightmare last night that for whatever reason, Yamapi and I were living together in a mansion. It turned out to be haunted, and like many nightmares, I was brutally murdered by very scary things. Right now I am super pissed at Yamapi for not saving me. DDD<
Another thing I'm pissed about is the 2,000 Japanese fans that got to go to Taiwan. So this Asia Tour is, once again, mostly a chance for Japanese girls to go on vacation with Arashi rather than Arashi giving a concert for the rest of Asia, after all. Geh. I will kill them if they pull another Secret Talk 2006 thing. (well, not Arashi themselves, but the staff. You know what I mean.)
edit: Anyone know why Beautiful Days says "Released Postponed" on CDJapan? ;0;
Posting from Chrome because my vox neighborhood isn't working on Firefox now all of a sudden. What happened? Dx
There's so much to catch up on, urg. My internet has been unstable since last week and I'm still a little behind. I safely preordered Hidden Fortress (OMG YES.) but no luck with Beautiful Days yet. I wasn't planning on watching Ryuusei at first, since I'm not a big fan of mysteries, but after the announcement that Arashi will sing the theme song, I changed my mind. Then I changed it back when I heard Nakashima Mika will be in it. I just can't stand her or her voice.
Even though I feel like I've been insanely busy lately, I've found something new to waste time on. My current boom, Web Kare. It's basically a web pet that you can add to your blog, only with men instead of animals. *dies* Clearly aimed at fujoshi, but it's addicting! (plus, I never said I wasn't a fujoshi) The only bad thing is because of the time zones, he's sleeping 95% of the time for me. Lame. ;_; Anyway, here's my profile if anyone wants to add me! We can become old maids together!
Yesterday night there was a tornado and brought the most beautiful weather in I don't know how long this morning. I love Fall. ;;;; I can't wait for the leaves to start changing.
I got my photobook yesterday! (which explains the storms. xP) It's lovely! All of the pictures are very artistic and nice! ... is what I want to say, but to tell the truth, I can't even see most of the pictures because the fold is in the way. RAGE. You can't even see Nino's face in his birthday picture. Uh. Who is in charge of this? Were they drunk? I want my money back. ;___;
PSA: Nessatoshi, my friend and a very cool dude, is looking for tickets for AAA2 in Korea. If there's anyone reading this that's in Korea or knows someone who is, please take the time to help her out. It's really important! Thanks. <3 <3
Ahhh, what cute bumblebees they are. <3 <3 Also, that "Ahhh" is an understatement. Picture lots more h's and a font 10x as big and you have my feeling right now. I'm SO jealous of everyone that was able to make it. Oh, those fountains are TOTALLY Bellagio. Oh man oh man. The torch! There are no words to describe how awesome Re(mark)able looks. MUST HAVE DVD NOW KTHNX.
