I’m just so tickled (and kinda pissed but let’s keep this post light now shall we? XD)

So, I just spent about an hour posting approximately 19272 comments on various sites in support to Ohno/Arashi (you know I’m exaggerating… right??!?!!) And I’ve just realised how good I am at buttering people up XDDDDD I don’t know how many times I’ve spammed “love”, “enjoy” and “great” loooool. I just hope with all this sudden eigo-comment spammage, they’re gonna have to take into consideration the impact Arashi has on their products/TV shows/promotional work. Or just to grab their attention and give them something entertaining XDDDDD I mean, they gotta know Ohno’s NOT ALONE OUT THERE. They gotta know there’re people who believe in him and are going to fight for him. Heck, we’re taking this to INTERNATIONAL LEVEL BABY~

And speaking of international level, in support for Oh-chan, the whole world is going to play Love So Sweet at approximately 12 o’clock midnight Japan time, which is in like right now? I dunno, I’m already playing it on loop so BRING IT ON XDDDDD

Okay, now why am I sooooooooo tickled (and kinda pisses but like I said, let’s be cheerful tonight! XDDDD)?

Some fangirls are turning this support-Ohno campaign into an obsession o_O I mean, okay, you voice your opinions, you reach out for everyone to support Ohno, you design support ribbons and icons and badges to show you believe in Ohno, you spam the Arashi-endorsed companies with comments like “you douche bags” XDDDDD But really, you do NOT have to make this a lifelong campaign as though your life depends on it. I see like, 6 posts in succession and it’s ALL about Ohno and his every word in his apology message and what he did during lunch on the set of Maou. I mean, it just makes me go o____O and LOOLOLOLOLOLOL R-U-SERIOUS.

You already did your part by showing your support.
You already did your part by voicing out your concerns and sending inquiries to several companies.
Now let’s not take this too far, shall we? D:

Oh, and pissed off mode.

DAMN YOU IF YOU DARE DOUBT OHNO.
I DON’T EFFING CARE IF HE ADMITTED TO THE THREESOME OR WHATNOT, DOES IT EVEN MATTER?!?!?!?!?!
I mean, seriously, can’t you just have enough faith in Ohchan to trust him?
Yes, what you all need is faith.
Because we are Arashi fangirls neeeeee~
Of love and rainbowssss~

Gomen for the lack of replies to comments and blog-a-visiting, like I said, I’M NOT SUPPOSED TO HEEEERE. So, you do NOT see me here. Alright? XD

Ohno needs our support, not delusional blabs

I should NOT have been so nosy… I should have continued doing my schoolwork obediently like a nice girl and not be such a nosy little bugger and log onto the Arashi blogosphere before I could control myself T_T *has no self-control whatsoever* XD

After reading all the recent reports about Ohno’s marijuana/threesome-sex scandal (you know where to read these reports, I’m too lazy to gather the links XD), I just HAD to make my own statement or not I won’t have a peace of mind, knowing all these shit is thrown at our poor Riida.

First of all, yes I’m really shocked that Ohno is embroiled in such a serious matter. But right now I will NOT believe any of this shit unless pictures show proof that he smoked marijuana. It’s hard to judge him from a fangirl’s point of view, but being a FANGIRL nevertheless I just don’t take in all this crap. I don’t really care about the threesome sex, it just shows he’s getting SOME out of the Ohmiya raping XDDDDDD.

Besides, don’t you just think it’s all too COINCIDENTAL that the tabloid publishes this scandal right when Maou – Ohno’s first drama! – is airing? And also when just recently the Olympic theme song is announced to be sung by Arashi? AU by KDDI has cut out Ohno’s AU CMs. NTV is having second thoughts about the Olympic theme song (since no one wants anything to taint the Olympic games). Clearly there’s a sabotage plan going on and it’s succeeding. There’s also rumours that the photos of him getting all high with women were photoshopped. (If they’re saying he’s high in those pictures, I’m free to assume Ohno smoked marijuana during the Freestyle photoshoots? XDDDD)

Now, what I want to say is, EVEN if Ohno was caught in a threesome. EVEN if Ohno smoked marijuana… he is still our RIIDA. He’s still the Ohno we love and adore and find him so squishable, right? He’s human, too. He makes mistakes and has imperfections like everyone of us, but only because he’s an IDOL and he’s IDOLISED by millions that he’s subjected to such hate. I am so disgusted by fangirls who immediately flame him for a mistake he did, and even sent those hate mails sent to AU to drop him off the endorsement. Like, wtf? You call yourselves fangirls when you DON’T EVEN SUPPORT YOUR IDOL IN DIRE NEEDS.

SO.
THIS IS YOUR TIME TO SHOW YOUR SUPPORT FOR OHNO.
TO PROVE HE’S INNOCENT AND/OR HE DOES NOT DESERVE TO BE PUNISHED WITH LACK OF PROOF.
WE ARE FANGIRLS OF ARASHI, ARE WE NOT?
SO WHY NOT DIRECT ALL THOSE LOVE TO OHNO NOW?

Go here: http://arashirin.vox.com/library/post/please-support-them.html
to read more about how you can support Ohno.

If I had the time I would’ve make 162356 badges and icons and banners to show Ohno’s support, but could only do a quick one (since my work involves editing pages on Photoshop… XD):

GANBAREEEEEEEEE, OHNO! <3

OHMIWBAGLWODO I GOT SPRAYED WITH WATER BY CHRIS DAUGHTRY!!!!!!!!!!

YES IT’S LIKE SUCH A TURN-ON I COULD HAVE DIED ON THAT SPOT.
I’M NOW GOING AROUND TELLING PEOPLE CHRIS DAUGHTRY SPRAYED WATER FROM HIS BOTTLE AT ME (and the crowd of people around me but STILLLLLLLL) AND THAT I TRIED MY LEVEL BEST NOT TO SHOWER SO FAST WHEN I GET HOME BUT IT’S IMPOSSIBLE BECAUSE I WAS SO STICKY WITH SWEAT (not from the kinky aforementioned incident… *cough*)

Now I know how it feels like to totally fangirl a rockstar XDDDDDDD

1) Didn’t have to queue up to enter the concert because of the VIP tickets W0000T. It was soooo much fun to just breeze past the 100m-long queue and go straight to the almost-empty VIP entrance <3
2) WE HAD A VIP TAG. AND A VIP BOOTH/TENT THAT HAD SOFAS AND HIGH TABLES AND WAITERS SERVING US HORS D’VEOURS, CUTE TINY GOURMET SANDWICHES, STARBUCKS COFFEE AND BEER. FREE FLOW. FREEEEEEEE.
3) Oh and did I mention we were protected under the tent? And it was drizzling then?
4) The VIPs had access to the FRONTMOST spot to the stage, where there was a space between the fences and the barred-off section where the normal-ticket concertgoers were. So, yes, WE WERE LIKE 10 FEET FROM DAUGHTRY LKNSDGKL48GHOGHSH.
5) We had FOUR opening acts. Which lasted 3 and a half hours T_T I mean, don’t get me wrong, the music was kinda cool and my friends and I were even dancing to it, but we waited 3 QUARTERS OF THE 5-HOUR CONCERT FOR DAUGHTRY. IN THE RAIN. Towards the last opening act (our own Malaysian Idol who’s kinda cutesy XD) some of the guys started booing lmaoooo.
6) There was a lucky draw, and my friend won A SONY ERICSSON PHONE. WALKMAN + CAMERA. LSGNJK4NG89YHUINGSDKLH. Yeah, I was kinda hoping I would get a new phone (because I wanted one and would save me RM700 T_T), but my friend totally deserves it. SHE’S THE NICEST PERSON IN THE WORLD <3
7) When Daughtry’s crewmembers came out to set up the equipment everyone started cheering for them LOL
8) Daughtry finally came out and ALL HELL BROKE LOOSE. EVERYONE STARTED SCREAMING AND JUMPING, AND I WAS GOING COMPLETELY MAAAAAAD FLAILING MY ARMS. I MEAN. CHRIS DAUGHTRY WAS 10 FEET AWAY FROM MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
9) TOTALLY AWESOME PERFORMANCES. Daughtry really jammed it up and ROCKED IT. The atmosphere was really hawt and crazy, with everyone singing along and just being a really responsive crowd! I don’t know how to explain it… I was mostly between screaming and singing and waving my arms and just getting starstruck XD if you’ve gone to a rock concert YOU’LL KNOW WHAT I MEAN~ XD
10) The guitarists and throwing their strumming pieces to the crowd and THE GIRLS WERE ACTUALLY FIGHTING OVER IT. I totally get it if it’s Arashi’s shirt thrown into a crowd of rabid fangirl, though XDDDDDDDDD
11) MY FRIEND HAD EYE CONTACT WITH CHRIS DAUGHTRY. AND SHE ALMOST KEELED OVER IN AWE LOOOOOOOOOOOL IT WAS SO FUNNY TO WATCH XDDDDDD
12) AND I HAD EYE CONTACT WITH THE BASSIST! Although he’s not as cool as the guitarist beside him, whom I was trying to get his attention (he was the closest to me) but he was too busy jamming up his guitar with eyes half-shut and his tongue sticking out LOL XDDDDDDDDD
13) During a break between performances, it was rather quiet because Daughtry had gone off stage to change equipments, and there was a woman beside me who screamed, “I LOVE YOU, CHRIS!!!!!” and just then Chris came out and said into the mike, “I love you too” with that AMAZING SMILE OMG. Then what’s SO HILARIOUS is that a guy on my other side screamed to him, “I LOVE YOU CHRIS!!!!!”. LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOO everyone was so amused XD
14) I think Daughtry already knew they were going to do an encore… because they went off the stage but no one came to pack up the equipment. And the concertgoers started chanting “WE WANT MORE! WE WANT MORE!” for like 2 minutes, and then everyone SCREAAAAAAAAAAAAMED when Daughtry finally came out. Chris THREW HIS SHIRT! TO THE CROWD 7 FEET AWAY FROM ME T_T And then he started spraying water from the bottles at the crowd (the girls were by now screaming so much it’s deafening), and I SO SCREAAAAAAAMED WHEN HE CAME TO MY SIDE OF THE CROWD AND SPRAYED WATER! AT US! I WAS SHOWERED WITH CHRIS DAUGHTRY’S WATER XDDDDDDDDDDDDDD Was hoping to catch the bottle he flund but some dude caught it T_T
15) CHRIS THREW HIS STRUMMING PIECE INTO THE BUSH BEHIND ME. My friends and I were sooooo tempted to dive in and catch it. YES, THE DESPERATION.

Overall? I went home thinking IT WAS THE BEST NIGHT EBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR~ Such an awesome concert to go to for my first time, too – it’s really cool to tell people my first concert is a Daughtry concert which totally ROCKED. <3

Here’re some photos we took (pics of Daughtry are in my friend’s phone, gomen T_T):

BTW – here’s a reply to some of the comments I skimmed through because I’m kinda in a rush:
– YES THE NEKO-CHAN IS A UNOFFICIAL MEMBER OF ARASHI XDDDDDDD Nah, initially I couldn’t find a LMAOed picture of Aiba so I thought the kawaiiness of the neko could take over Aiba’s place XD
– Flashget’s a download manager. It’s the reason why I almost NEVER complain about downloading Arashi videos XD

Minna – I might not be able to come on for a while ne T_T Take care neeeee! <33333

School on Saturday – HUMAN LABOUR D:

IT TAKES AWAY MY MORNING PLAYTIME AND RUINS MY USUAL WAKING HOUR AT 11AM T_T
So that’s why I can’t watch VSArashi (not like I watch it regularly these days… *hides*)

BUT THEN AGAIN. Tomorrow is still gonna be a happy dayyyyyyyyyy~

BECAUSE I GOING TO DAUGHTRY’S CONCERT TOMORROW WOOT.

Got these tickets from my dad’s friend who works for the organising company – VIP TICKETS WTFFFFF I ALMOST CHOKED ON MY BANANA WHEN I FOUND OUT XDDDDDDDDD (seriously) AND I EVEN GOT A FREE ALBUM. which I’m listening to right now! Okay, I admit I’m not really a Daughtry fan. The whole reason why I’m actually going because 1) it’s free, 2) it’s VIP seating, 3) IT’S GONNA BE MY FIRST (real) CONCERT SO WHEEEEEEEEE~

Although I wish it’s an Arashi concert and those are fanclub tickets… *IMPOSSIBLE DREAM*

P.S: I’ve Arashified my Flashget BWAHAHAHAHAHA. So every time I download stuff (or if my siblings do) the download menu is all Arashi loveeeeeeee~ *Ohno-okaasan pride*

KOCHI MITEEEEEE!!!

Fanfics love! <3

OHISASHIBURIIIIIIIIII ARASHI FANFICS~

More ShoHiroki kawaiiness, Arashi crack and Sho-bullying, poor thing XDDDDDD

Mercurial Dreams

Chapter 11
( Hiroki stood on tiptoes to look over Tegumi’s towering shoulders, and narrowed her eyes at where she was pointing. Sho was lying down on a leather sofa, a black cap covering his face and he was clearly fast asleep. )

Chapter 12
( “You bunch of high school kids, you two can’t even make one move to make our lives better. All this shyness and girly embarrassment is driving us crazy!” Nino swore. )

Ohmiyasumi nasaiiii~

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.

Johnny’s finally released the covers for truth / Kaze no Mukou e singles!

truth / Kaze no Mukou e LE
Kaze no Mukou e / truth LE
truth / Kaze no Mukou e RE

And I am NOT happy.

Because I ordered the RE version and I DON’T LIKE THE COVER. It’s a little… too rugged for Arashi? Okay, I don’t know how to explain but I just don’t like it. Maybe because the boys aren’t on it? I mean, I’M MOSTLY BUYING IT BECAUSE OF THE JACKET AND HOW CAN THERE BE NO ARASHI. I admit that I can be annoyingly shallow to judge the wonderfulness of an Arashi CD by its cover, but seriously, whyyyyyyyyy?! It happened with Step and Go (I didn’t like that cover too and already paid for it BEFORE knowing) and now with this one too? T____T

I haven’t sent my cheque to YesAsia so I still have my options open… I mean, I could always switch to the LE version, but that’s like RM20 more than the RE – and it’s mostly because of the DVD! Not only that – I can’t decide between the two LE versions because they’re just as equally gorgeoussssss~

DOUSHIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
(unless someone wants to switch covers with me but WHO WANTS TO.)

*points at post title and proceeds to cry in a dark corner*

Sleeeeepyyy

So since I’m kinda homework-free today, originally I thought I’d spend more time FINALLY doing some blog-visiting and comments-spamming (because I could only spam Aki-chan’s blog that had 902786276 posts in just 3 days wtf xD before I had to go off for dinner and all the usual stuff I do at night. Haven’t visited everyone else’s lovely blogs and OMG MAIBA NEECHAN I GOT A GLIMPSE OF YOUR BLOG AND IT SEEMS YOU UPDATEDDDDDDDDDDD~~~~~).

But then I FELL ASLEEP while watching a TV show with my brother. I mean, falling asleep watching FRIENDS at 9pm?!?!?!?!! YOU NEVER BLINK WHILE WATCHING FRIENDS! I didn’t know I was that tired ne T_T So I’ll catch up tomorrow, alrightey?

Wubs you all <33333333

With evil Ohno comes…

THE SEXINESS YOU CAN’T RESIST.
EVEN IF YOUR ICHIBAN IS NOT OUR BELOVED RIIDA:

OHEMFGEEELKTHISEEEKLIKEWOBKSDSSEXLMASOH
IT SOOOOOOOO MAKES YOUR KNEES WEAKEN, RIGHT??!?!!?
*watches Aki-chan nosebleed to death*
GO HEEEERE for more of these sexy scans from CUT magazine, Aug ‘08 issue

Isogashii desu yoooooooooooooooooooo T_T

All schoolwork and no Shosexplaytime makes Tashii a dull and zombiefied fangirl.
DIE SCHOOL DIEEEEEEEEEE.

And it does not help that last night I had the most random dream ebaaaaaaaaaar – at first I was riding business class on a plane, and suddenly we crashed and then ended up in a war zone. But what’s really hilarious about this dream is, while in hiding I was cracking coconuts for the escapees LMAOOOOOOOOOO.

So I’m going to compile ALL that I’ve been wanting to rant these past few days but could only rant in silence *glares at schoolwork*:

1) OMEDETOU AKI-CHAN FOR OPENING A NEW WORDPRESS BLOGGEH! <3

2) After sooooooooo many months I finally gotten to watching Tensai Shimura Doubutsuen! Never realised how much I miss Pan-kun Aiba dressed in animal costumes and constantly being hounded by Aibarapist Aoki-san XDDDDDD

Ebil monkey glare.

3) SHOUNEN CLUB PREMIUM + ARASHI’S GYRATING HIPS + MOVE YOUR BODY + JUN AND AIBA’S SHIRT-PULLING + HAPPY SAKURAP + OJII-CHAN ONII-CHAN TEAM LOVEEEEE = HAPPY NOSEBLEEDING FLAILING DEAD TASHIICHAN.

4) I miss taking those mindless quizzes XD Which Arashi Member Am I Most Compatible With? And my results is…

I swear I answered truthfully…
BUT WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.
Not like I’m complaining because I’d go to the zoo or Africa with my niban anyday XD
BUT MY HUBBYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY~ T_T

5) I’m sure I’ve ranted to just about anybody and everybody I know about this – concerning a rumour about Matsujun possibly invited to the MTV Asia Awards? It’s still not confirmed because it seems like no one has access to the guest list, but MATSUJUN STEPPING ON THE SAME SOIL AS ME?!?!?!?!! SDLKGNSDKLGN894GIBHKSDLHH I HAVE TO STALK HIM XDDDDDDDDD But the thing is, there’s no possible way for me to get tickets to the MAA because you’ve to either win them or pay RM1k+, and red carpet is off-limits, so I’ve sorta lost all hope on ever having a chance to see him, even if my parents have given me permission to go T_T IF MATSUJUN REALLY COMES THEN I THINK I MIGHT GO INTO A DEPRESSION LOL.

I think that’s all?

CHESUTO POWAAA~

How could a villain be so eviliciously gorgeous?!

I mean, to turn from the kawaii-ness of THIS

to the heart-stopping frustration of such evilnesssssss like THIS

OMNKLDGO94GNLG WHY ARE YOU SUCH A GORGEOUS VILLAIN.

IF YOU AREN’T SO GORGEOUS I WOULD’VE STRANGLED YOU SO MUCH FOR PUTTING BELOVED TOMA-CHAN THROUGH THE PAINNNNNNN AND MAKING ME CLAW AROUND THE TABLE IN FRUSTRATIONNNNNNNNNN

Watching Maou after a really hectic week is really relieving, although I’m not sure if the frustration over the Naruse-manipulation is supposed to be remedial… I mean, is shouting curses and responses back at the drama a good sign of my sanity? XDDDDDD

Seriously. All the deceiving and manipulation and retardation of Naruse’s awesome mastermind manipulation… it’s soooooooo ingenious and yet sooooo crazily painful to watch because it’s like WTF NOOOO WHY DOES THE BAD GUY WIN AGAIN?!?!?!?!?!

Oh and I’m gonna admit that I watched the Nino cameo scene about 89276286 times because it’s like OHMIYA SEXXXXXXXXXX AND IT’S LEGAL.

Speaking of Nino, there’s a rumour of a new drama, starring him along with Nishikido Ryo? I dunno, any drama starring any of the Arashi boys is fine with meeeeeeee~ <3

Remember my previous post about the Bon Odori, where I was lamenting WHINING about not being able to get clear shots of the taiko players, especially kawaii little Hikaru-chan? T_T

WELL I’VE DONE MY (rather obsessive) RESEARCH, THANKS TO UNCLE GOOGLE <3

But before that, here are a few really cool photos I found! (click the photos for a larger view) -

Maou love~

Doesn’t that kinda translate as something like evil/tarot king love? XD I seem to be the only one who finds this ironically amusing… YES YOU MAY LAUGH ALL YOU WANT AT MY CRACK KANJI-READING JAPANESE XDDDDDD

Anyways, sakurai-storm has released English soft subs and hard subs of Maou Episode 1! Go >HEEERE< to download! She did all the translating, timing, and encoding all on her own all in the span of a few days, so please do credit her for the hard work! <3

I also designed a few icons out of random boredom XD I did these a week ago and never gotten round to uploading them. Here you go! Credit isn’t necessary, but just don’t take the credit all to yourself =D

My dad wants to get a Beagle and it seems he’s dead certain on it. SO! I’m trying to come up with cute Japanese names for it, but I need something that’ll convince them (and they’re a hard ones to please XDDDDD). I already named a stray cat Momo who keeps trespassing into our house and flirting with my cats, and it’s possibly the cutest name ebaaaar~

I need a name that’s cute and yet playful… something suitable for a Beagle? XD SUGGESTIONS ONEGAISHIMASU <3

Bon Odori 2008 – ほんとうにタノシイですよ！♥

IT WAS SO MUCH FUN NEEEE~

I mean – loads of authentic Japanese food, yukata-clad pretty people, Japanese giggly kids of extreme kawaii-ness, Japanese haaawt dudes to ogle, the Bon Odori dance, IT’S HARD NOT TO RAMBLE ABOUT HOW MUCH I ENJOYED MYSELF IN A LITTLE NIPPON HEAVEN XDDDDDDD

Anyways I got back home at midnight, tired and sleepy, but nevertheless with so many wonderful memories that it’s IMPOSSIBLE to forget (until the next year arrives XD)! ♥ Just came by to say just HOW MUCH I ENJOYED MYSELF! I took soooooo many pictures and videos, but I’ll only upload tomorrow because I need sleep and dreams of a certain HAWT-HAWT-HAWT-HAWT-HAWT HeySayJump’s Yaotome Hikaru-lookalike playing the taiko lknlskdng849bg8sbnglsdkh *le dreamy sigh*

OMFGGGGG SO MUCH TO TELLLLLLLLLLL!!!!
I

SLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!
*nods*

But before I go, here’re a couple of previews!

  

Those girls. are. SO COLOURFUL AND SO KAWAII YESSSSSSS?!?!?!?!!? Especially that red-yukata-clad smiley girl in the first picture. OMG I sooooooooo squeaaaaaaaaaaled at the UNDEFINABLE KAWAIINESS OF HER SMILE (she was running after her dad who was carrying some dango LOL XD). Heck, I’m even surprised I got such a great candid shot from a crappy camera XDDDDD I swear I could’ve gotten hoarse just squealing at the sight of so many little Japanese children running around carrying dango and ice cream. THEY’RE SO KAWAII YOU WANNA CATCH THEM AND SQUISH THEEEEEEEM~

Alright, sleep calls. Ohmiyasumi nasai~~~~ (learnt that from Vero-chan XDDDDD)

[14th July UPDATE]

Gomen for not updating yesterday – I totally knocked out with exhaustion, also what with the homework I had to rush and all! Anyways, here’s my report xD

I’m not gonna go into details about the 30-minute train ride I had to endure, with no air conditioning, people packed like sardines in a can, and me sweating like a pig bcecause I was wearing a black jacket *grumbles* Once at the station in Shah Alam, we took a free shuttle bus to the stadium where the Bon Odori was held, and yes it seems EVERYONE was taking the free bus service XD

Arrived at the stadium at about 6pm, and already it was PACKED with people! And the stadium isnt exactly small – the Bon Odori stage was in the middle of the field, while to the side was the food stalls and picnic areas, and to the other side were stadium seats. Not only that, I kinda felt like I was entering a little Nippon island because I saw soooooo many people wearing yukata (little kids and girls and boys, all so kawaii and kirei <3), so many sorts of people speaking Japanese (heck we passed by an Indian tour guide speaking in Japanese to a lost Japanese family! I GOT SO SHOCKED I ALMOST STARED D:), and JAPANESE FOOOOOD.

First thing my friend and I did was attack the stalls and hunting down green tea ice cream, there were all sorts of food to make your mouth drool – ikayaki, onigiri, dango, kakigouri, katsudon, yakisoba, takoyaki, korokke (which my brother demanded I brought home some because he got obsessed with it ever since Yamada Tarou Monogatari XDDDDDDDD), omg YOU DO NOT WANT ME TO GO ON XD

Recorded while browsing the stalls XD

Oh and as for the green tea ice cream… I TOTALLY SQUEALED WHEN I SAW YOKOMON (a Japanese ice cream chain). Got my green tea ice cream and IT TASTED LIKE HEAVEEEEEEEEEEEEEN (it might even taste better than Sho sdklgnlsdkngdlshk XD). Wanted to get more after that but the queue was craaaaazy T_T But while trying to get out of the queue, I accidentally bumped into this random guy. As I apologised, I noticed that he was A VERY HAWT JAPANESE GUY that I blushed D: Then he went “Aaah, sumimasen!” it’s like KLNKSDLGN93HT8HLSDGN I THINK I’M IN HEAVEN. I SHOULD’VE PURPOSELY BUMPED INTO MORE RANDOM JAPANESE GUYS XDDDDD

And to prove my everlasting euphoria, I recorded a Yokomon promotional video XD

We got a pretty good picnic spot on the edge of the field surrounding the middle field (where the bon odori stage was located). We came prepared with a pink checkered picnic blanket – KAWAII DESHOU?!?!!? XDDD At least we didn’t have to sit on the grass like everyone else WHEEEEE~ As we devoured the food, we started spying on the people XDDDDD There weren’t many cute guys, but YES THERE WERE KAKKOII YUMMY JAPANESE BOYS~~~~ especially the one I bumped into <333333 Most of them had girlfriends already though… T_T A lot of Japanese families passed by too – I find it sooo kawaii when the otousan carried their kids on their shoulders while they ate dango, argh it’s so hard not to squeal out loud! Also saw two Korean women who were lining up in 2 different queues and were 5 feet apart and yet they still enthusiastically chatted louder LOL.

Oh, and there were also…
     

COSPLAYERS?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Okay seriously, this is a little stupid. For one thing, you do NOT go to a traditional Japanese festival where you HONOUR THE DECEASED to parade around in anime costumes as though this is an anime fest! I mean, yes, the Bon Odori is more of a Japanese culture fest rather than the rea deal, but it’s still considered an insult. Think about those Japanese people who would’ve been offended! If you do this in Japan you’d get shot (I really wish I’m not being figurative…). YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELVES.

So anyways I ignored those cosplayers because the bon odori dance was going to start. I left my friend alone and went closer to the stage to record. The taiko drum players were HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWT. THEY’RE LIKE 14-YEAR-OLD JE-BOYS-LOOKALIKE WITH MUSCLES LKSDNG9026YU248HJGIJA;,’;ASGH with the exception of a female taiko player… XDDDDDD So the boys played the taiko while female yukata-clad bon odori dancers danced around them, while the crowd around danced along around the stage. It’s really fun ne~ My friend and I didn’t dance though because we were too stubborn to leave our perfect picnic spot XD

Bon Odori dance – sorry for the shaky video XD

OH AND ANOTHER REASON TO FLAIIIIIIIIIIIIIL~
I was going towards the stage to take another video of the dance, when I saw two Japanese girls in yukata walking directly in front of me. They had uchiwas strapped into the back of their obi (as usual) but the uchiwa wasn’t the usual bon odori uchiwas… THEY WERE KATTUN UCHIWAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One girl had a Kame uchiwa, while the other was covered by yet another uchiwa (a common one) but I was guessing it was a Naka uchiwa? I DON’T KNOW I SAW TWO JE FANS (even though I do not like KATTUN) KYAAAAAAAAAAH~ While I was secretly taking pictures of them, this girl went up to them and asked “OMFG ARE YOU A KATTUN FAN?!” The Japanese girl didn’t understand English I think, and the other girl said KATTUN again, pointing at the uchiwa. The Japanese girl then understood and nodded, but then it got awkward so the girl just went away. ARGH I THINK IF I SAW A JAPANESE ARASHI FANGIRL I WON’T CARE I’D STILL FLAIL TO HER IN MY FEEBLE JAPANESE XDDDDDDDDDD

During the final dance of the night, the crowd dancing around the stage was HUUUUUUUUUGE~ Mite mite!

Sugoi da naa~

So the Bon Odori ended, and people started to leave. After we packed our stuff, I noticed that the taiko drum players and the bon odori dancers were leaving the stage, and people started crowding to take photos of them and I was like “OMG I WANT A PHOTO TOOOOOOOOO~” and started dragging my poor friend over XD And seriously, the taiko players and bon odori dancers were treated like CELEBRITIES. The crowd cornered them against the stage so they had a hard time leaving, that in the end they started posing for the cameras LMAO. Up close, the taiko players were SOOOOOOOOOOO HAWT. Like I said, JE-BOY LOOKALIKES! And Japanese tooooooo <333333 I couldn’t snap a photo because the crowd was totally insane and my photos kept ending up blurry because I kept getting pushed around. So in the end I only got a shot of the bon odori dancers and sorta gave up and walked away, until I SAW. Another taiko player alone and taking pictures with some people! AND OH. MY. EFFING. GAWD. HE. LOOKED. LIKE. HIKARU. FROM. HEYSAYJUMP. LIKE A 14-YEAR-OLD HIKARU. HECK I MIGHT EVEN THINK HIKARU SHRUNK AND FLED TO MALAYSIA AND STARTED PLAYING THE TAIKO LOOOOOL XDDDDDDDD And he was sooooooo kawaii! His right arm was in a sling though, and he looked kinda awkward and shy as people started crowding around to take pictures with him. But this is where I got reallyyyyy pissed. See, the people were being TOTALLY rude to him – they’d just run up and grab him while getting someone to take a picture for them, basically just treating him like an ornament and not a boy. Hikaru (I started calling him that XD) was forced to take a picture and he seemed really uncomfortable, y’know being Japanese and having a language barrier. They didn’t even speak a word to him, or even asking for permission to take a photo (y’know, the usual Japanese politeness). I was just trying to figure out the correct sentence in Japanese to ask for a picture, when his mother shouted urgently, “Ikenai yo! Ikenai yo!” and Hikaru practically ran to her, and they both escaped to the locker room! It was kinda hilarious actually – like how celebrities flee the paparazzi? I witnessed that! Now I will not make fun of celebrities fleeing paparazzi T_T

So I spent the rest of the night thinking of Hikaru, regretting not being able to get a picture of him T_T I was whining to my friend, all the while we exited the stadium and was lost as to which bus we should hop on. We then randomly picked a bus and went on, and then only to find out we were on the wrong bus! Turned out we boarded a bus for university students, hazukashii yooooooooo! But then… the student representative who caught us… HE WAS HAWT. I mean like, Edison Chen HAWT with softer, kinder eyes? KLNKLNDSGLKN4389HG8SDNHKSDH. He was so hawt that I momentarily forgot about my embarrassment XDDDDDD

So that concludes my Bon Odori 2008 report! Now my aspirations for next year’s Bon Odori is,
1) Wear a yukata
2) Learn to speak Japanese so I get a reason to speak with hawt Japanese taiko-playing boys
3) BRING AN ARASHI UCHIWA
4) Join in the Bon Odori dance
5) Bring LOTS of yukata-clad friends XDDDDDDDD

Alright, I compiled all of my photos into a slideshow, which is SOOOOO much more convenient XD Douzo!

It was a really fun night ♥
