That Kid is Freeeaky

It’s this Japanese commercial that publicises support for children’s welfare. Apparently the message behind the commercial is: consider your child’s artistic creativity before you send him to a psychiatric ward? o_O Not knowing what in banana pyjamas the video’s about, my initial reaction upon watching the video on pure innocent curiosity was how insanely bizarre the boy’s obsession with drawing black could be diagnosed as a mental problem. Hell, I got freaked out by the boy (he kinda reminds of the ghostly boy, Toshio from Ju-On/The Grudge). But hey, it could even be a message on “Love your children no matter how gothic they become!”

But who would’ve known the poor kid, wrongly accused with mental disability, is actually drawing a ginormous picture of a whale which was his inspiration. I instinctly went, “Awwwh, it’s a whale!” =’)

Happy 27th, Oh-chan!

Doofus Ohno

HAPPY BIRTHDAY OH-CHAAAAN!

I’m absolutely appalled that I could actually forget about Oh-chan’s birthday ’til I read LadyXS’s birthday wish. Blame it on work and lack of sleep (and not memorising Oh-chan exact birthday :X). Gomen ne, Oh-chan >_<

Still, you’re 27 years old! A year older, and yet you look like a 17-year-old schoolboy <3 (is it why you love your mom so much? xD) So, to celebrate (as LadyXS declares it) National Ohno Day, and also to make up for my forgetfulness, here’re purezento for my favourite Riidaa!

Tashiichaan’s birthday gifts to Ohno:

Erm… Oh-chan? D’you need a tissue to wipe your nosebleed? Oh, and to wrap it up, here’re a couple of pictures to put on your bedside table! xD xD

Happiness - Ohmiya

Omedetoooo~! ^_^v

I Need Answers D:<

For example, to questions like: 

1) Why some guys have that bizarre habit of crossing their legs. Don’t you feel… squeezed? o_o
2) Why pimp-wannabes like to show off their eyesore-infecting bling.
3) Why China has to come up with such disgusting and cruel delicacies (live monkey brain, foetus noodles, breast milk cuisine).
4) Why Paris Hilton’s thinks she isn’t a bimbodizzle.
5) Why the upright-pain-in-the-arse Clear Shampoo commercial (currently playing for 359763 times each bloody day on TV) has poor Rain saying such cheesy lines AND his voice dubbed in a horrible Malay version and alright-but-still-horrible Mandarin version.
6) Why local TV is obsessed with Taiwanese and Korean dramas but not J-doramas.
7) Why some idiots think Meteor Garden is wayyy better than Hana Yori Dango. (HOW COULD YOU?! D:<)
8) Why the world (exaggeration of the Asian population) is lacking 6-foot tall, non-androgyneous men.
9) Why books sold in local bookstores have to be so freakin’ expensive.
10) Why local libraries suxxors!!!
11) Why my school has to be mentioned in national newspaper only because it’s involved in a speculated danger zone of a landslide due to residential construction on a hill.
12) Why my colleague - the good-looking guy with a heart-melting smile and sporting a new smexy hairstyle – has just GOT to be my boss’s son.
13) Why I’m more friendly and enjoy more chats with said good-looking guy’s mom than said good-looking guy.
14) Why there isn’t a secret door at the back of my closet which leads me to an enchanting fantasy world Jun-kun’s closet, Tokyo, Japan.
15) Why the world needs to realise that supreme idiocy and heads as thick as rock should be eradicated. Urgently.
16) Why I just get so amazed when there’s a Japanese or Korean who speaks fluent English. Even this measle attempt amazes me with his vocabulary! :O
17) Why girls as young as 14 even have to worry about being a virgin around her (wtf..)non-virgin friends.
18) Why I think pompous 12-year-olds with a grown-up way of speaking and walking around in Gucci designs and sporting an Apple iPod are horrors to the society.
19) Why stubborn idiots insist ‘tuition’ is pronounced ‘too-shee-un’. By the way, it’s pronounced ‘too-ee-shee-un’. Geez, Malaysian English.
20) Why J-pop can be so infectious when it once was painful to the ears.
21) Why Americans resort to reality shows for entertainment.
22) Why American football actually involves hands and not feet.
23) Why, due to Malaysia’s obsession with Korean dramas, there’s KBSworld. Yes, what sucks is that they provide everything - from dramas to variety shows - in Korean AND offers English subtitles. Why can’t they do the same with Japanese channels, dammit. 
24) Why Japan is obsessed with their idols/aidoru.
25) Why I love to rant about nonsense, when I’m bored, like right now. ^_^v

Arashi Nosebleed-Inducing Rabu Rabu

Darn it, I know I should be relaxing on my weekend to reduce the high level of insanity caused by numbers. Yes, anything BESIDES watching a gazillion videos of Arashi rabu rabu over and over again, but my itchy hands just wouldn’t let me leave the YouTube page! :O Stupid hand! (You’ve got good taste too, hand. xD)

I’ve come up with a compilation of my favourite Arashi rabu rabu moments! They’re anything BUT Ohmiya, due to the enormous pile of Ohmiya videos that’d crash this post xD Aren’t less than popular rabu rabu moments just so interesting? (If you’re an Arashi fangirl like me, I kinda have a feeling you’ve watched each and every of these videos. Good for you! xD) They’re adorable, they’re funny, and gush-worthy, and of course, causes heavy nosebleed! Any deterioration health-wise and or mental-wise shall not be a fault of any parties, though you may blame the hand.

ShoNino

 
It’s one of those rare intense rabu rabu moments between Sho-kun and Nino-chan! And ooooohmigod O_O *nosebleeds* I almost died from the adorable hand-holding they shared in Iza Now! backstage clips, this… is… too… much… *dies*


Read the info about the video and you’ll understand more ^_^v But they’re too kawaii! I love you, hand.


Aren’t they too kawaii? xD

Iza Now! Concert backstage – ShoNino and (shock!) JunOhno

Isn’t it adorable how Sho-kun holds out his hands to take Nino’s? <3 <3 <3 It’s like:
Nino: I’m too sleepy to walk.
Sho: Here, take my hand, I’ll lead you there. *takes hand* <3
And JunOhno! :O It’s at about 1:37, and here’s the conversation between them…
Jun: [points around] There’re 5 sets of couches here, why d’you have to sit on mine?
Ohno: Because I want to be with you.
Awwwwh. And Jun-kun ran his hand through Oh-chan’s hair! <3

SakurAiba


Aiba’s trying to demonstrate a ghostly experience, but I’m more intrigue by his position on top of Sho-kun… *nosebleeds*


The 2-second Sakuraiba rabu rabu <3


Okay, it’s nothing much, but I find it really cute when Aiba said “Thank you very much,” and Sho-kun replied, “You’re welcome.” Engrish FTW <3


Sho-kun had a toilet emergency and Aiba-chan announced it to the world! :O At the beginning I kinda thought that Sho-kun was staring at Aiba with a weird look… xD

JunAiba


Jun-kun I knooooooow you like being fed by Aiba-chan. ;D I don’t see your hands… they’re not anywhere near Aiba-chan’s rear end, are they? :O


Mr Don’t-Touch-My-Personal-Space-I’m-An-Evil-Sadist ACTUALLY moved in closer to Aiba-chan! Jun-kun~ *raises cheeky eyebrows*

NinoAiba


This is a raaaaare fanservice, but you can spot it! :O Nino-chan can’t help but throw a tantrum because Aiba’s being Aibaka, and yesh he got Aiba-chan’s attention! And if you search for Ohno around the corner of the video, you can see Oh-chan’s exasperated “Here we go again…” expression! LOOOOOOOL. Someone’s jealous xD

I have a question.

Should I change the page theme of the bloggeh?

I mean, I’m kinda getting bored of the 3-pixel wide, ant-sized letters and the narrow bloggeh post column that cuts off my YouTube videos. T_T Not that I don’t mind the pink background and the flowers, though xD but I kinda think I need a change.

I’m testing some other themes, so you might be seeing a different theme every few minutes xD What about the current theme?  But first answer my question thats a dilemma to be – should I change the theme or not?

EDIT: Yes, this theme is here to stay! It’s simple and pretty in a subtle way, and I love the colour schemes (the lime green banner provides colour to the otherwise dull background). The only downside to it is the lack of widgets in the sidebar, and most annoying of all, I don’t have a Categories section in my sidebar! >=(

Is That Johnny?

Wouldn’t we all want to know how the perverted old fart Kitagawa Johnny looks like in real life? I mean, he’s the guy who discovered and nurtured Jun-kun’s amazing talent! xd Oh, and other countless successful boybands, like Arashi, KAT-TUN, SMAP (I SWEAAAR IT’S SNAP! =O), NEWS, KinKi Kids… and of course, for exploiting the boys (specifically, my Arashi boys) and drilling them into a lifelong of slavery bachelorhood fear of being molested by the very pervy old fart publicity. Yuuup, I’m curious to know how pervy he looks. But Google Images didn’t extract any pictures of him! You reclusive fart, I bet you got them all removed to protect your pretty face (*cough*vomit*) now ditcha?!

So, due to the mystery surrounding Old Pervy and aggravation due to the lack of his pervy photos, I’ve come up with a few pictures to speculate on his mysterious physical appearance. These are just suspected images, but hey, you might never know he could be just that one. ;D

SUSPECTED IMAGE #1
Johnny #1
Very fitting eh?! Except I doubt Old Pervy is THAT blond. And Mr Bravo would be very insulted.

SUSPECTED IMAGE #2
Johnny #2
I’m kinda opting for those half-bald men at the back, no? Or would he be the one in front holding his underpants and scratching god-know-what on his chest? o___O Kurosawa-san… what were you thinking?

SUSPECTED IMAGE #3
Johnny #3
Nice lips there! I don’t know why I even picked this picture, but that weird/funny/gay expression kinda screamed to me, “HEY LOOK AT ME I’M JOHNNY KITAGAWA AND I LOVE PEANUTS!” Did you read between the lines? ^_^v

SUSPECTED IMAGE #4
Johnny #4
Noooo wayyy. You dig LIGHTSABERS, Pervy?! :O :O :O

SUSPECTED IMAGE #5
Johnny #5
So, you wear a coconut tree figure on your head. And mangoes around your neck. YES THAT IS YOU, PERVY! 1) Hawaiian connection (I suspect Old Pervy has badly-burnt skin from a horrible fake tan incident), 2) Pervy’s habit of calling people, “YOU!” – honestly *rolls eyes* 3) Because I said so! xD When I first read about Pervy and his weird habits and eccentric character, I immediately thought of Principal Kuno. Loool.

So, what’s your conclusion?

Arashi Speaking ‘Ingurisu’

Okay fine, Engrish it is if you can’t tell the ‘Japanized’ katakana word. xD

I find it hilarious and amusing when I watch any Japanese struggle with their English. I was at a Japanese restaurant once and there was this elderly Japanese couple downing loads of sake, and the manager tried speaking English to them, hoping they’d understand a little, but the Japanese couple ended up sputtering something like “Moru sake purisu.” I almost choked on my chicken teriyaki in laughter. xD

ANYWAYS. Arashi is also in the category of ‘Japanese Whose Engrish I Mock’. Yeah, it’s mean and rather degrading. I’m mean and I degrade people who can’t speak good English – and my school is loaded with those sort of people (No, instead of being snobbish, I benefit from the weird fact that I have a weird hobby). Though, when it comes to Arashi and their ingurisu, but I can’t help but gush because they’re sooo cute at doing it! (AIBA-CHAN IS THAT YOU?!)

Presenting videos of each Arashi boy speaking Engrish!

Aiba and Ohno -

Aiba ENCORE! -

Nino -

Refer to this post for my gushing/ga-ga over Nino-chan’s Engrish ^_^v

Jun -

Sho -

Yup – I saved the best Arashi English-speaking boy for the last! A ROUND OF APPLAUSE FOR THE KEIO BOY! xD xD I love his smexy voice, and his above-average English… Sho stop making me drool over you. Jun got his pronunciation right, Nino got the vocabulary (loool), Ohno has the I-don’t-care I-don’t-need-Engrish attitude, and Aiba has the adorable boldness! xD And yesh, they still have their accents (but Sho I’d overlook your very very very subtle accent!)

Of course, there’re other Japanese whose Engrish I mock, like KAT-TUN! However, Bakanishi’s English isn’t mock-worthy >=( You’d just strike out a reason for me to hate you more, Bakanishi!

Baka, Kame and Ueda’s Engrish Way to Proposing -

Gee, stealing those smexy lines from JT isn’t cool at all, Bakanishi, so Bakanishi Hate Level goes higher! Although, watching that part of you speaking English over and over again makes me hate you lesser… xD (Did I mention that I had a randomly weird dream about you and me on the beach with a Retriever named Yuujiro? JUN-KUN WHERE WERE YOOOOOOOOOOU?!)
(if you wish to mock Bakanishi’s Engrish PRE-L.A., refer to this post xD)

Lastly, to Engrish-Speakers, here’s a FINE example of someone you should learn from (and admire, if need be)!

Sung Shi Kyung Speaking English AND French -

Ignore the fact that he’s Korean. xD But he’s an important example! You always notice that Japanese/Koreans who are fluent in English are either of mixed-race or have studied abroad. But in Sung Shi Kyung’s case, he has never been abroad (aside from France in that video) and taught and trained himself to speak English. Amazing for a Korean with such fluency in English, huh? And he doesn’t even have an accent! And he can even speak French! *eyes shine in admiration*

MatsuJun Girlfriend Rumours

For the past few weeks, I can’t help but notice someone has been searching feverishly on Google with entries like “Matsumoto Jun’s girlfriend” or “Arashi girlfriend rumours”, and ending up at my humble bloggeh XD I knooooooow very well it’s those rabid Arashi-obsessed fangirls (seriously, the intense obsession) who are determined to fish out any secret information whether any of the Arashi boys are dating so they can fly over to Japan in furiously burning jealousy and murder the poor girlfriend and maybe at the same time kidnap Jun. Or you’re just curious xD

So, to satisfy the fangirls’ intensely obsessive curiosity about Matsumoto Jun’s single/taken status, I’ve done a little research on the god-forbid rumours that have previously plagued our lovely golden Arashi boy.

 BE WARNED - if you’re one of those sad little fangirls whose life ambition is to marry Jun-kun and will seriously shriek in hurt/anger/jealousy/pain/despair if he has a girlfriend, I suggest you don’t continue. These may just be rumours, but then again I don’t want crazy jealous rabid fangirls spamming my Comments section with “THEY CAN’T BE DATING NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I WILL KILL HER!!!!!”. Honestly! These are just RUMOURS, which obviously means they do not have 100% accuracy, and should definitely be taken with a pinch of salt. =_=

With that said, onwards my friends!

Jun-kun - DUET

Rumoured Girlfriend no.1 – Kitagawa Keiko
Kitagawa Keiko

Jun-kun was linked to Kitagawa Keiko (from the movie, The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift) when a supposed photog-captured photo of her and a mystery man kissing in a car was published in a tabloid mag early 2007. The mystery man had an uncanny resemblance to Jun, and same goes to Keiko.

The published photo (blurry) -
Friday - Jun & Keiko

Keiko was also previously linked to Yamashita Tomohisa (Yamapi~) from NEWS – where a very clear photo of them kissing was published – and also to Kamenashi Kazuya of KAT-TUN. Keiko (and Jun) have claimed that they’ve never met each other before.

Rumoured Girlfriend no.2 – Suzuki Emi
Suzuki Emi

This rumour began spreading when a witness claimed that Emi was seen with Jun, drinking at 1am in a Shibuya cafe, and seated quite intimately to each other. It is also rumoured that Emi was introduced to Jun through Eikura Nana, Jun’s co-star in his early ‘07 movie, Boku Wa Imouto Ni Koi Wo Suru (I’m In Love With My Sister). Among JE boys’ fans, Emi is deemed a ‘JE Whore’, due to the frequent rumours of her dating/seen with countless JE boys.

Rumoured Girlfriend no.3 – Inoue Mao
Inoue Mao

Yay for Mao-chan~! XD Hana Yori Dango fans would definitely know what I’m talking about. Mao is Jun’s co-star in the highly popular Japanese doramas, Hana Yori Dango season 1 & 2, and in almost every interview and behind-the-scenes, Mao and Jun interact with such intimacy and closeness that fans suspect their ‘friendliness’. They’re so comfortable with each other and have such a good chemistry between them, that fans might even believe they’re dating in secrecy. Remember the behind-the-scenes video of Jun presenting a bouquet of flowers to Mao-chan? And  she ran to him and hugged him and Jun opened his arms wide to receive her? Jun also doesn’t hesitate to have some ’skinship’ with Mao-chan, which is VERY rare unless he’s very, very close to the person. I mean seriously, this is Jun I-NEED-MY-PERSONAL-SPACE-*#$^%-OFFFFFFF we’re talking about! XD

Rumoured Girlfriend no.4 – Nakama Yukie
Nakama Yukie

Yes, Yukie and Jun starred in the ‘02 J-dorama, Gokusen. Well, I didn’t really get much information about this connection xD But all I know is that they were linked for some time after their dorama, all the way to ‘05 when they just didn’t see each other much anymore since then. =S

I hope you Jun-obsessed fangirls haven’t died of a anxiety/anger attack, yet. DON’T KILL ME NOOOOOOOO!

Desire is sooo life-threatening

[Warning: diary entry ahead! Well, not really, since I don't find anything harmful or revealing or emotional-distress causing in it. Call me hypocrite for all I caaare!]

BOOKS SHOULD BE PRICED AT 1/8 OF ITS CURRENT RIDICULOUS PRICE. THIS IS ALSO ONE THE REASON WHY MALAYSIANS DO NOT READ.

While working at the warehouse, I was unpacking a few cartons filled with imported books on Japanese – anime, manga (there was even a Gundam novel! :O), guides to living in Japan, guides to doing business with the Japanese, and also (SQUEAL JOY JOY!) books on learning Japanese! So the nosy, annoyingly curious little person I am, I picked a book called “Learning Japanese Through Manga” and read through it for a good 15 minutes behind a shelf, away from any of my supervisors’ spying eyes. xD To be honest I enjoyed it! It was learning in a fun way, the lessons are really easy to absorb and the manga strips really help me understand! I seriously considered buying the book, but then as I checked the price ticket on the back… *dies of a premature heart attack*

So I’m trying to hint at my friends and my parents and my siblings that I’m DYING to get the book. I mean, it’s beneficial in improving my fluency in a language, right? Riiiight? As compared to the stuff I want, like Arashi albums, Arashi photobooks, Arashi posters, Arashi DVDs, Hana Yori Dango 1 & 2 DVDs, Yamada Tarou Monogatari drama, Arashi-filled magazines…

And I was refused to a nearby book warehouse sale due to the sad fact that I was broke (but 36 hours after that I was given money, which were then spent on clothes shopping today. Yes, clothes are important! Clothes are vital in my working world where I dress to impress and look pretty even though there aren’t actually any guys in the office to impress in the first place. Besides, there was a sale! *breathes*)

Oh, and also because I practically live in a library. Yes, I’m a bookworm.

So my lesson is: craving for something soooo badly is definitely painful, and not worth it for your head/heart.

It was painful enough not having that very-benificial-but-very-expensive Japanese-learning book. I had such a great deal more of desire when last night, I innocently flicked through a local celebrity magazine when I got to know that they had an article of Arashi in their July issue! :O :O :O :O

My reaction: WTF NOOOOOO!

I was VERY tempted to buy that issue, but I don’t think anyone sells it anymore…

Before I sign out for an indefinite period of absence, here’s a smexy/kawaii photo of Arashi from their spread on Duet magazine, Sep 07 issue!

The Arashi Influence – Pt 2

Refer to the post, ‘YATTA! OKAA-SAN YATTA!” for Part 1 of my (successful) attempts of converting my best friend into an Arashi fan. It was unexpectedly easy, but it’s unpredictable and simply too fun xD

SCENE: Afternoon – midway through working
Me: I wonder if I can listen to my iPod while sorting through these books… [casually takes out my iPod]
Candice: Just don’t let George (our meanie supervisor) catch you. You know how paranoid he gets…
Me: [tries to be nonchalant] Hey, do you want to see how Arashi looks like? I’ve got a video of their performance on Music Station. xD
Candice: Oooh, okay! [grabs iPod and watches]
Me: [points] this is Aiba, with his fugly old hairstyle from early this year… ah, that’s Nino! Then there’s Sho, Ohno, and Jun! Ohhh aren’t they just so haawt…
Candice: Eurgh, Nino looks too girly. And yes I agree Aiba’s hair is fugly…
Me: But you should see his latest hairstyle – he’s wayyyyy hawter now!!!! <3
Candice: [pretends not to listen] Ohno looks a little odd. And why’re they dancing like girls?
Me: [sulks] They’re not dancing like girls, that’s just you! It’s called versatility of Ohno’s creativity in coming up with such cool dance moves!
Candice: [pretends not to listen again] But of all of Arashi, I think the guy with the curly hair is the hawtest. That’s Jun, right?
Me: OHMIGAWD YOU THINK JUN’S THE HAWTEST?!?!?!?! [dies of euphoria while smiling like an idiot] YOU’VE GOT SUCH WONDERFUL TASTE, MY FRIEND.
Candice: o_O I see what you mean about being “Jun-baited”, he DOES look sexy and charismatic…
Me: [starts squealing]
Candice: …but he still looks kinda gay.
Me: WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?! NOOOO! HE’S NOT GAY!
Candice: And aside from Sho who has such a hawt voice, they sing like girls.
Me: Noooooooo they don’t! [mutters to herself] Well, maybe Jun, and Aiba, and Nino… T_T
Candice: ^_^v

I think I shouldn’t be a smarty pants by showing her videos of Arashi rabu-rabu/kisu moments, or she’d be convinced they’re gay… =_= Geez, Arashi-incomprehensible people.

YATTA! OKAA-SAN YATTAAAA!

Okay, so that was an intentional unintentional exaggeration of my excitement. But before you start to speculate that I’ve gone completely bonkers due to work, hear my amazing accomplishment today which is – converting my best friend into an ALMOST-Arashi fangirl! xD

My close friends are working in the same department as me (Store Management *rolls eyes*), and the loud-chattering girls we are, we normally make a racket in the warehouse (where we work). So the obsessive Arashi fangirl and blabbering girl I was am, I’d been rambling to my insane colleagues nonstop for every minute about Arashi and each of the boys’ lovable uniqueness, and their music’s versatility. <3 <3 

So today I brought my iPod to work because of the drowning urge to drown out the horrible, repetitive songs playing on the radio at the warehouse. Local radios should be banned! In the morning I was listening to (no surprise there) my Arashi-filled folder when my friend walked in on me. She was unusually curious about Arashi (it was probably from the way I gushed dreamily about the boys to her for 209737 times…), and so I allowed her to listen. Here’s the conversation we had:

Candice: Hey, what’re you listening to?
Me: Arashi, duh. Wanna listen to their music?
Candice: Sure!
Me: =O serious? You’re the first to say yes to that! Everyone I know thinks they’re gay. >_<
Candice: I just wanna find out why you’re crazy over these guys. ^_^
[so I gave her the earphones and she listened to it the entire time on the way to the workplace]
Candice: First track… Can’t Let You Go. It’s by this… Sho…right?
Me: Yup. What d’ya think about his voice?
Candice: [after a while...] Wow, he’s got a hawt voice! Very… sexy and deep. Very un-Japanese! :O
Me: See? I toooooooooold you he’s got the hawtest voice. In fact I love his voice better than Jun-kun’s… [goes dreamy] 
Candice: :O :O :O :O
Me: …and Sho’s song’s really cool, especially his rap. <3 Go to the next song!
Candice: Friendship. Aiba – that tall guy with the so-called husky voice right? [I was nodding feverishly] Nah, too bubbly for me. Weird voice, too.
Me: [sulks] Fine, go to… the 6th song. It’s Nino’s.
Candice: …too squeaky.
Me: But he’s cuuuute! He’s the one who starred in Clint’s movie…
Candice: …and he’s short, like you told me, right?
Me: =_=
Candice: [goes to listen the next song] So THIS is that Jun you’re in love with… he sounds girly.
Me: He’s as neurotic as me, y’know. What a similarity! xD xD xD
Candice: You’re scary when you’re neurotic! o_O
Me: [raises eyebrows] Oh, you can try listening to Ohno’s songs, but they’re not exactly my taste. Listen to HAPPINESS, then!
Candice: [changes song] Oooh, lterally a happy song. And it’s too bubbly pop, boyband-ish.
Me: That’s the whole point of it! =_=
Candice: Riiight. Well, I’m going back to the first song and listen to Sho’s song. I’m hooked to his voice! I think I might even download this song. ^_^v
Me: [gasps and stare at her in amazement] OHMIGOD YOU’RE SERIOUS?!?!?!
Candice: [looks nonchalant] What? He really does have a hawt voice.
Me: [gasps into the quiet pantry of the office where we're at] Yatta! Okaa-san… yatta!
Candice: o_O

I’ve now converted… one person to be an Arashi fan. xD IT’S A LOT FOR ME. PEOPLE DON’T NORMALLY LISTEN TO THE SONGS I RECOMMEND! Now all I’ve gotta do right now is convince said friend (whose b-day is a week before mine in early January) to buy me an Arash-related gift… muahaha.

P.S: I officially hate my supervisor as much as I do with Bakanishi Jin and the Perverted Old Fart. Possibly more. And I suspect he’s ESPECIALLY friendly with one of my colleagues (another 16-year-old part-timer like us) – because his mom is the head of Human Resources dept, AKA his senior by a thousand mile.

I’d go for Bakanishi any day over Evil Supervisor. At least he’s more good-looking (yes it’s that bad)

Nino-chan in an English Interview

Yup, more Arashi Engrish! (Though no one’s Engrish beats Aiba’s any day, mind you xD) Nino-chan was in a press conference with the English press on his film, “Letters From Iwo Jima“. The journalists are annoying – they speak so slowly and deliberately that it’s degrading >_<

Nino Speaks English in an Interview!

Surprisingly, Nino-chan’s English isn’t half bad! :O :O :O I’ve always considered him, in English proficiency level, above Aiba (horrible) and below Sho (average). Remember “ROCKY ROCKY ROCKY MAN!!!”, anyone? Well, you get the idea ^_^

Plus, I’d say his English isn’t bad (for a Japanese), despite a teensy weensy – okay, distinct pronunciation difficulty. No wonder he looks sooo relieved and accomplished after answering each question <3

But hell, any Japanese who puts the word ‘intelligent’ very casually in his sentence earns a rare bout of respect from yours truly. xD

And since we’re on the interesting subject of Engrish, Aiba may be ecstatic to say he’s got a competitor in Engrish un-proficiency! None other than Bakanishi Jin. Sukurimpu?! Car shrimp?! Wtf…

Akanishi Jin Messes Speaks English

Yes, he was in that phase of fugly-hairdye, very young and possibly mental, pre-LA-escape and pre-ISPEAKGOODENGRISHWOOHOO. One reason why he doesn’t piss me off in this video as he usually does is because he seems just as baka-kawaii as Aiba-chan! ^_^v

(…I’d probably change my mind on that last comment and decide he still ticks me off like… five seconds from now.)

Poor, Perverted Sho-kun >_<

Everyone else in Arashi makes fun of him because of his “underwear” comment during the talking segment of Mago Mago Arashi! Poor thing *hugs*

And, this video is English subtitled ^_^v

Arashi makes fun of Sho-kun!

Aiba-chan… YOUR HAIR!!

IS THAT YOU, BAKANISHI JIN?!

Aiba’s New Hair

Nyaaaaaaaaahh I wuv your new hairstyle Aiba-chan! Yup, I definitely hated your perm-dried-up hair AKA your previous hairstyle. WHY NOT STICK TO THE LOVELY BADLY-DYED STRAIGHT TRESSES YOU HAD EARLY THIS YEAR?!

Getting rid of that bad-choice of brown hairdye is a smart thing to do, btw.

But hell, changing your hair to this style is DEFINITELY the smartest thing you’ve ever done! You don’t make me snort every time I focus on your hair. You also prove that you’ve finally loved your hair and our hair-broken hearts. You just look too adorable and ultra-smexy now, chuuu~ ^_^

More pictures to perve/drool/swoon/almighty-perve on! ->

Despite that I still love you because you’re just too damn smexy and hawt, and you make me wanna run my hand through your hair xD

And also because of that nosebleed you gave me from the priceless RABU RABU moment you two had! ->

Jun-Aiba Rabu Rabu
Mr Don’t-Touch-My-Personal-Space-I’m-A-Sadist actually touched Aiba-chan! :O

More kawaii Aiba-chan piccies! Perve all you want! ^_^v

Aiba-chan’s huge mouth!

[The amazing revealing of Aiba-chan's new hairstyle is from Arashi no Shukudai-kun, Episode 57 [ 5 Nov 07 ], which you can watch HERE on YouTube! And also LauraChan2 whom I got the Shukudai-kun screenshots from ^_^v ]

Save my squishyyyyyy!

Bare Chesuto!
*points* Chesuto! (nice pants, Nino-chan)

As you’ve noticed, I haven’t been updating this bloggeh as consistently as I did before. In my defence… I was really busy (yes it’s truuuuuue)! I was too occupied with some activities/functions that I get too exhausted when I come home to check on my bloggeh.

Also, (*gaspeth*) tashiichaan’s got a job! It’s a part-time job I’m taking during the school holidays, due to the immense stiffening boredom I usually get from hanging around my house (and the fact that I earn LOTS of money to shop around without having to beg my parents on my knees). I’m working at the headquarters of MPH (a popular bookstore), sorting through and packing newly-imported books. It’s fun, since I’m such a bookworm xD

It’s also better than working in a Japanese restaurant. Well, yeah, the brightening prospect of being a waitress there is learning to greet customers in Japanese (and tashichaan could show off her Japanese speaking skills to unexpected customers), but erm, I don’t think I’d cut as a waitress. And ’sides, MPH HQ is nearer! :O

ANYWAYS. Since I work 8 hours a day, 5 times a week, there won’t be a consistent update on new posts. However, I’ll try my best to keep up! ^_^v
