( I had a hair cut, so I took some photos! )

The photos were a bit hard to take so I did a lot of editing to them, and I had to set my SLR to Program, because it's not like I can modulate the settings if I'm posing in them :) but I was kind of inspired by, yes you guessed, Arashi's new PV.



Why the huge gap under the video? WHUT.

I thought I would really dislike this song because of overhearing it on The Quiz Show 2 (which I'm sort of keeping in up with, but slowly, as always) and it's really good, but I wasn't sure if the song fit the drama, but then again I don't know why Sakurai is crazy in it yet and why Yokoyama is some (really bad acted out) bad guy, but I am sure it's because of that girl he was with.

Anyway, that and CRAZY MOON (heysaydie, you knew it was coming when all I said for like days was MUTEEEEKI).

Actually, right now I'm watching Howl's Moving Castle so I'm going to go and pay attention to it and talk to you all later! (even though I can only vaguely tell it's Kimutaku's voice)

this is hilarious.

No seriously. I'm going to divulge into this whether you want to read this or not.

I don't understand most of these subbing communities, and I've probably talked about this with heysaydie too many times to count. Why sub something for fans if you're going to make people join, jump through ten million loopholes and then not give them the files? Why be so fugging elitist about it? No-one is going to thank you in the end, and people can easy get subs from other places.

Shouldn't you be subbing because you want people to watch what you subbed? Shouldn't you be subbing because you like doing the job? Shouldn't you not be subbing because you want to be like 'HOMG THE FIRST GROUP TO GET THIS SUBBED VIDEO OUT'? Lame, so lame.

Some subbers can do the job of your whole team, while you sit on your asses and claim all those projects and never finish them.

It's people like that who I hate the most, whether subbing or just people in general.

And I love that meme, just so you know. To watch people who are probably part of that subbing group PROTECT their group, but not listen to the advice of people who are giving it? Shouldn't you job be to listen to what they have to say, no matter how hard it is to swallow, and improve your subbing community?

USELESS.

I used to be part of a board who subbed on the side. I'm not going to mention the name or anything but GOD. There were so many problems with 'competing' subbers, what is this? It's absurd.

It's probably why I am still loyal to last_of_days. They're raws, yes, but they only ask you don't upload or redistribute their files. And Gwen works so hard to find sources for people. She doesn't make you answer ridiculous questions like "WHY DO YOU LOVE ARASHI?" I've been an Arashi fan for what, 6 years? And I don't understand why you'd have to answer such a ludicrous question to get a file you want. I like Arashi probably longer than the people who are providing me these files. So lame. Seriously.

Of course I get huge mega 1GB files off heysaydie and watch them raw since my Japanese is not rock bottom crap but.

One day I'm going to sub files when my Japanese gets better with these files and put them on a community to be downloaded by ANYONE. I want to share my work with fans. And if it gets stolen and sold, heck whatever. It really doesn't bother me haha it's not like the end of the world.

Oh and guess what, I watch your uploaded subs on mysoju. And?

CHECK OUT THAT POUT LOL SO CRACKER/HAM.

I was trying for "ageha" but of course it doesn't show so well on Photo Booth so, maybe one day I will do it so that Aiba will be proud of me... that in itself makes me laugh haha.

So as you can see it's Friday and I have work again and of course I am typing stuff up before I go. Though there's not much to say other than my internet died suddenly last night when heysaydie came back on and I have yet to reply to comments so... I am basically a lazy bum.

I tried moisturiser and foundation today. You wouldn't believe it but my skin feels a lot better and it's way lighter on the face I can feel the difference. So, I'm going to try that technique all summer since Hong Kong weather is never friendly to a make-up melting face.

Sigh sigh sigh. Oh work, here we go.

Tudou is totally delaying my watching of Aiba and his 「魚といくらか？」and I am weeping at the dismay. It was fast a while ago before my internet connection died and was reborn. Now VEOH is super fast because I'm watching ピカ★★ンチ because apparently Mizukawa Asami is in it (AND SHE IS!)

I also made a quick Nino icon because I discovered the power of Pixelmator. Though I do not want to buy it at all, but is definitely cheaper than Photoshop.

I should be sleeping or working on "The Futago Chronicles" but I really can't be bothered to draw L'Arc~en~Ciel as illustrations right now, and I need to paint whatever I do have in gouache so I should do that first. I'm working on it like mad because I have an interview for the Illustration with Animation course I want to switch to next year (oh Fashion Design, you baffle me with your stitches and your hems and your invisible zips). It's not because I can't make clothes. I can, but the level you're required to know these things from previous years means I'm at a huge disadvantage and I was always behind. The hours I put into it was like the equivalent of someone who knew what they were doing, but three times more. I felt so stressed out, and the fact I was living with zombies just made it worse.

But drawing, I was always able to draw, so it doesn't come as a pain or a hindrance to sit and draw something. Though the subject of my work is very boring right now, as I live at home and I'm not doing anything other than working or grocery shopping or watching Japanese TV.

I took this in Photobooth so don't expect it to be good...





Yes, totally ignore my mother's post-it note haha.

But yeah, it's not much so far but I hope he can see I can draw... I'm tired of waiting for his reply now so I want to get this over and hope he accepts me as soon as possible (also, if he doesn't accept me, he'd be kind of cruel to tag me along so far and make me do this work and then say no, when I could have chosen other courses over his).

I'm tired now and I want to go to bed.

ごめんねheysaydye。。。明日も話しましょうよ、絶対。どこが行きました（笑）。「ま、数時間かな〜」って嘘だ！でも二人は双子ちゃんZ。そしたらいいよ。

Why does everyone have a boyfriend/girlfriend?

Where is my Frog Prince/Prince on a White Horse/Magician/Artist/Newscaster?!?!

Maybe I was too specific there.

It just seems like more and more people have someone haha oh well. Loner Stephanie FTW.

I'm going to type this out here because I can't be bothered to reply to a nearly week day old "Ninomiya/Masami" debate over @ arashi_on but geez, I want my two cents on the say because as heysaydye knows it's been bugging me ever since I re-heard about it.

I hate preachy "mature fans" with their "oh let Nino date who he wants to, anyone who dislikes the fact he dates anyone else is a loser who has no life/god you're such a fangirl". I'm sorry. Who gave you the stand to speak trash again? Fans like that are the worst.

I think it's worse to 'protect and be loyal' that way, if you're kinda pissed/upset at the Masami rumour, be so. Why tell other fans they aren't allowed to be upset about it? Surely it is natural. It's like finding out the cute guy in your class you always wanted to talk to actually has a girlfriend of say, 4 years and you didn't know until some other classmate told you. You'd be upset too right? Being indifferent doesn't make you high and mighty.

I don't dislike Nino dating. In fact, I would be kind of freaked out if a 25 year old didn't ever date once, and he was some pretty cute celebrity. But it's more the fact it's bloody stupid Masami that gets to me. And I'm not disliking her because she dates Nino. I just don't like her as a person. He could do a lot better than her.

I don't mind any of the Arashi guys dating. In fact, I kind of wish Aiba and Mizukawa Asami were still together because I dunno. They seem like a cute couple. And their laughing would rule their world, they both have such awkward laughs haha (plus she is a fun actress so). Though apparently she looks like Nakamaru (THANKS MEGAN).

Masami can't act. Even in Last Friends, the only people I took note of was Ueno Juri and Eita and Asami... and that guy who was in VOICE this year with Eita and in Medaka too but I totally forgot his name haha. Anyway, she didn't do a good job in Dragon Zakura and I fell asleep during the first episode of Yasashii Jikan.

And if any of them ever read Japanese tabloids as much as I do because I am super lame, you'd probably find out she's been rumoured to have cheated on Nino with Yamashita, been off on drunken sprees during the filming of Last Friends, is rude and two-faced, and is pretty much a diva.

She even appears on "Japan's most disliked female celebrities" list so it's not just me who dislikes her.

(I think it's worse that Nino said "I don't mind if my girlfriend cheats on me as long as she tells me" because now I just think he's a bit of an ass for not dumping Masami haha)

Anyway THAT'S OVER WITH. I just needed to say something about it somehow.

We all know I'm turning into an Aiba fan against my will. Right?

These pictures were taken mmmm on Tuesday? I always wondered what I looked like from the side (you don't get to see it as much as the front view, right?)



That's pretty much me today.

We've had a lot of sun lately, it rained a lot at the beginning of the week but it's been pretty unpredictable. Today we went out to deal with my student financial issues which are a bum because about a month or so ago I decided to transfer to another course (Illustration with Animation by the way) and it's taking ages to process and for me to receive an interview (AGAIN) from the programme leader so.

That's pretty much what I did today. That and build a book shelf (IKEA, so in reality, it doesn't sound as impressive as it should). I plan on taking out some of my old clothes from my wardrobe and giving some away that I don't seem to wear/need/fit anymore. I hope mostly the first two though since not being able to fit could be good or bad and I don't want to find out which side of bad/good I'm on, frankly.

I've basically just been a slob at home though because I barely do anything. But the exciting thing is I go to Hong Kong in June and my friend from there is coming over so that should be exciting too! If the weather holds up at least.

Here's a picture of me in March after I watched 「知らないほうが幸せだった事実」





貞子だ。

Before I post what I was going to post, let me just say that I had a dream where Aiba and Nino were battling for my affections and then I ended up playing this weird video game with Nino and it was all really weird. One part, Aiba was hugging me and he was squeezing me so hard I think I nearly passed out haha.

Anyway that is so fangirly of me but whatever. I thought it was pretty amazing.

Sakurai appeared briefly. Wearing no shirt and having some weird flexing competition with Aiba. It was also kind of weird, but not as weird as the whole Nino/Aiba thing.

ANYWAY, I am off to do my face and watch some more 真夜中の嵐（全てメグのせいですよ）。

Of course, I didn't write after I went to work because I got distracted with various things and eating and showering and sleeping, but work was pretty much okay despite the fact I had to work with this guy who I have known forever and his work attitude got on my nerves.

Because he was all "stressed out" and yelled at me for not helping him out (as if I didn't have other things to be doing than helping him out at his primary job).

Oh, haha, I forgot to mention I am a waitress, and his job that day was to work at the bar, whilst I did the food section. There's always tons of people on a Saturday, as you can imagine, so to also take on another person's job is something you should ask nicely about, not yell at them for (and he got the drink order wrong too! Talk about bad upon bad).




Of course these aren't my screencaps, but heysaydye's (I am linking you because you commented me before with your username, but if you want me to take it off I will haha), who I ended up watching Nino's DOOR TO DOOR with this morning when we felt like we were going to die. But still. I missed the last 25 minutes of it because I was pretty much out of it from no sleep but I caught most of it. It was pretty sad though, but I expected a lot more "OH DRAMA!" to happen when most of it seemed pretty slow pace for me. And though I caught only a bit or Marathon (by the same director, with Nino in it too) since these three 'handicapped' dramas are a set of three, I thought Marathon was a little more more 'upbeat' than DOOR TO DOOR. So. Oh well. Anyway...

LOOK AT NINO'S WRINKLES LOLZ. Oh I adore him.

I didn't know someone could look so cute handicapped but here, I think we've pretty much proven anything Nino does is made of cute and that by 9:01pm, he had pretty much killed half of Japan with his cuteness but hey. It's Shukudai tomorrow when I get up so we're going to watch that too.

レアル二宮（迢春日っぽい！）

松っぽい。松フグ。松ジョン。

Apparently, his vest is from Uniqlo (Kazuga of course) and freakily, I want one just to be some huge Oodorii freak haha (it's sad how much I love Japanese Owarai Combi duos but that's probably because I'm going to be in one someday if I collect enough stupid neta)

Though by BUDOU joke hasn't advanced any further yet. Damn.

I AM OFF TO WORK. SO I WILL WRITE LATER. BUT THIS IS MY FACE BEFORE I GO.

OKAY?!?!

So I got up to watch "Himitsu no Arashi-chan" on TBS and it's been replaced by some stupid drama (I checked the site and it only just told me). That isn't even interesting but hey. So I hope it's back next week or... it's a bit of a huge coincidence it's time slot has been taken up so many times.

As a side note, I super need the AAA Konkuritsu DVD haha I thought I would buy it after my calendar but after I didn't receive the darn thing for a whole month after its release, I was really fed up with my postal service to spend all that money on it. But now I've seen the footage, it seems totally worth it.

Hahahaha also, meg directed me to some rumours from uwasako and here are the highlights:
also, don't read if you're prone to squeamishness of rumours, I just find them hilarious

* Aiba in Ginza, leaving with some hostess and not returning. Though he's believed to be dating Mizukawa Asami I can't see that somehow haha on both accounts but it's funny that that has supposedly happened. I just want to see a drunk Aiba with his HYAHYAHYA laugh.
* Melody and Miyavi getting married Apparently she is pregnant so. As most cases are when people in the entertainment get married (there are so many examples I am not even going to list them).
* Akanishi speaking english and hanging out with George (Miyao George, his drug posessing friend, obviously). I can see somehow him talking English in his off time and totally messing up. As for him drinking, apparently he drank champagne and tequila (and that drink is FOUL so unless he had plenty of lemon and salt, he is one crazy MOFO) Apparently Kusano was there too. LOLZ.

I like rumours haha I always speak bad of people I like but really, I love them.

I am also typing this with LIMITED SLEEP so I am going to go die now haha

also, nino's cm for DOOR TO DOOR. He looks way to cute in it, I mean... and it ends with tears probably so I am not sure whether to watch it... y/n???

My livejournal needs a total overhaul since it's been around for what, stupid amount of years now and haha I'd actually like to use it sometime (plus meg is coming back to it, which is always a good reason to come back).

Though of course we all know I am super lazy so haha this will probably take a century.

(I was going to me a Kamisen/Tonisen joke somehow but I didn't know it would fit in haha)

So I haven't written in forever but it's probably best I did. It's the spring term and I'm sadly stuck in my flat doing nothing other than typing this in the earlier morn. Though I'm on episode 8 of 「流星の絆」and I don't want to watch anymore because I want to drag it out a bit, seeing as I have to do something in my gaps tomorrow as I work on my project.

Speaking of project, we're making a shirt/blouse making project (for anyone who doesn't know, I study Fashion Design & Technology, what a handful of a name) which involves picking a consumer, a muse and a style of garment making. I've chosen Amelia Earhart (because it's easier haha than the other one), NYLON as my consumer and I haven't decided which aspect of Maison Martin Margiela I want to do yet but we'll probably come to that tomorrow.

Musically, I am totally back into the swing of ARASHI. I guess it just bloomed in the Christmas! Which was an okay holiday (where has my vocabulary gone?) and New Year I did nothing, but I did manage to talk to meg, hitoriasobi and aichu when it struck 12, which was actually rather nice seeing as it was sort of passing into the new year with old friends.

Speaking of, I have some resolutions made up and am currently employing about... 2 of them. I shall talk about it further later maybe as I actually can't recall of them, but so far so good.

I keep getting weird neck cramp, undernearth the right side of my jaw. I don't know if it's cramp, or pulling a muscle but everytime I yawn rather dramatically (not on purpose, obviously) it starts to kick in, and there's still a dull pain there now. Totally annoying.

I'll probably write more tomorrow as I have more or less the whole day to again, do nothing. Other than avoid my flatmates, but that is a story I am of course, leaving for tomorrow.

SLEEP!

Excuse me.
But nothing beats this film/song. I'm going to go downstairs and watch it now.

OH VHS.
Talk about old school, kids.
