Strange... [Jul. 20th, 2009|12:03 am]

[Current Mood | irritated]



I really did not expect to like this song, but I do. And this is probably the nicest debut PV I've seen for any JE group. ^_^;; I might end up following these kids' music. Maybe. It really bothers me that it's "Nakayama Yuma w/ B.I. Shadow" though. Like the other members of the group are not as important. D: Not that I know who they are, but still.

And I am really getting sick of this freaking drama over the Swedish version of the Tegomass single. ILLEGAL SHARING, OH NOES. Like, really, people? Really? Just because you want to promote their "international" fandom (which seems to be advocated mostly by people in Sweden who are personally affected, unlike the majority of fans) doesn't mean you should tell people to take down their uploads of the single, especially being RUDE about it. Like...ugh. Like this person who made it sound like this girl would be PERSONALLY RESPONSIBLE for Tegomass not returning to Sweden, since she shared the rips of the single. Absolutely ludicrous. The hypocrisy of it all pisses me off. If I was that girl, I would not have deleted my entry. People are making a HUGE deal out of something that, really, is not that big of a deal...

Anyway, so a week from tomorrow I'll be going to RockN'Water, the camp my youth group is going to instead of CIY this year (since it got cancelled at the last minute? What the crap?). It should be pretty awesome, cuz we get to go rock climbing, white water rafting, etc., something different each day. It kinda sucks that we're camping, but I can deal. But then Josh told us youth staff this tidbit today: Each day, when we're out doing whatever our activity is, we'll be in the middle of nowhere...with no bathrooms. We all get to pee in the woods. GOOD TIMES. I think Josh, as a male, does not understand the hardship this presents to us females. ^_^;; I'll be okay, but I can only imagine how some of the girls are going to react... I hope they'll just suck it up and not complain.

Also, a couple of my coworkers (who are Indian) shared some Indian food with me today while I was on my lunch at work. It was super good~ And really nice of them to share. But man, I must really be getting stronger against spicy food, because one of the girls said she'd asked for the curry extra spicy. I mean, I had to drink water between every couple of bites, but I ate and enjoyed it all! And I don't think I would've been able to eat something that spicy in the past. ^^

Time to go watch some more Hero! I was hoping to finish it tonight but I don't think I'll be able to... Tomorrow, then! What drama should I watch after that?

Yamapi, I'm sorry to have doubted your new drama! ;_; I just watched the first episode of Buzzer Beat, and I kind of love it a whole lot. ♥ There were a few people in this drama that I didn't expect! Like Saejima-san from The Quiz Show is Yamapi's mom in this drama~ And Hannya (!) are part of the team management. Or is it just the one guy from Hannya? idek. Anyway. And the girl who was Riiko in Zettai Kareshi is Yamapi's girlfriend. And I really like the B'z song that's the theme for this drama. I don't listen to them a whole lot, so I tend to forget how awesome they are. Anyway, I really like Yamapi's character, for the first time since Nobuta. He actually *gasp* has a personality. His character is really cute and someone you can easily sympathize with, the kind of guy who tries really hard but just can't succeed. And I really like the way he relates with the main girl whose name I forget. Anyway, I recommend checking it out. Even though Yuri said she watched it and she thought it was ビミョウ. What do you know, Yuri.

And who read this super-cute interview with Arashi's bokes?? Seriously, Aiba and Ohno~ So cute. I was smiling the whole time I was reading this. How awesome would it be if some of this stuff came true?? XD Also, I kind of love Koyashige. I mean, not even Ohmiya have done something as ridiculously gay as wearing shirts with each other's faces on them. Well, okay, Ohmiya has possibly done gayer things than that, but still.

In real life news, I had dinner at Osaka with Jamie, Kouji and my brother today~ I had katsu curry-don, which was probably like ten thousand calories but it was delicious. ♥ And even though I just got paid, I keep spending money. Why, Amber? Please control yourself. ;_;

Random: Ajikan was probably the first j-rock band I came to like, back when I barely listened to Japanese music at all. Like everyone else, it was Haruka Kanata, the theme song from Naruto, that first caught my attention. The funny thing is, though, even after all these years, and all the music they've put out since then, Haruka Kanata is still by far my favorite song of theirs, and probably always will be. Maybe because it was one of the first j-rock songs I liked, I always feel kind of なつかしい when I listen to it. And really, everything about this song is awesome. ♥

It's been an awesome couple of days! Yesterday after work, I headed over to Jamie's to spend the night. We had dinner at Yo Sushi (where they were playing SHINee, as I told Sara [info]romanticgraze already, I totally thought of you!), headed to the Fairfield Mall for like thirty seconds because it was about to close, and spent the rest of our time together watching stuff. We finished Maou finally (and Jamie evidently holds me personally responsible for the ending because she said I was no longer her friend after it was over), watched VS Arashi with Gackt and Arashi on Utaban with all the geinin (so that I could earn my way back into her good graces), slept, then watched the last three episodes of Stand Up!! and a movie called 20th Century Boys, which is apparently the first in a trilogy and was pretty good (Jamie was pretty excited about the giant robot). In the midst of that, I got to help Jamie scoop dog poop in the dark, and witnessed her endless epic battles with her pets. Good times had by all. No, really, I had a lot of fun. ^^

Then tonight! I thought it was just gonna be me and my friend Kim, but Christina, Paul, and his sister Naomi also came to the midnight showing of Harry Potter. We ended up in line behind Selena and her husband, so that was fun. I got there at 11, and the line was wrapped around the ENTIRE building and stretched across the parking lot. It was insane! EVERY theater was in use that night, so the parking lot was FULL of cars. It was insane! I've never seen anything like it. They started letting people in around the time I got there, but we didn't get inside until almost midnight. It was packed inside, and we were lucky to find a place where we could all sit together that wasn't quite the front row. The movie finally started at 12:30, probably because it took that long for everyone to actually get into the theater. Insane! Selena and her husband said that every showing in Sacramento was sold out, and most other theaters were doing the same thing, showing the movie on every screen. Since when did Harry Potter movies become this big of a deal?? I've been to midnight showings of Harry Potter movies before and it was never like this. It was a pretty epic adventure. At any rate, the movie was quite good, possibly the best one yet. I recommend it. ^^

I should probably try to wind down and get some sleep, since it's getting close to 4am... But will I? Not likely. Must check flist...

Not that it matters, really, but have you guys seen the cdtv ranking of who you want to be your lover? I'm pleasantly surprised that Nino made the list! I don't really understand why Kame and Jin always dominate these rankings though, lol. Maybe it's all based on looks? idek. Actually, I still kind of don't quite understand why Jun is supposedly the most モテる Arashi member. Is it all because of Hanadan, or was it always like that? Also, it was kinda cool to see Jaejoong on the list, although wow, number 3? Higher than I would've expected. ^_^;;

A brief, non-spoiler-ish review of Gakko ja Oshierarenai!: It was cute, I suppose, although I thought it was going to be funny and it wasn't, really. It was definitely what I think of as a "seishun drama," aka discovering who your true friends are, growing up a little bit, etc etc, except dude, this drama pretty much tells you that love can, in fact, solve every problem in this world. It kind of made me want to punch something after a while. My other main issue with it is that it brought up some serious issues with some of the characters in the earlier episodes (teenage pregnancy, domestic violence, suicide, etc.) and sort of dealt with them...and then dropped them and they were never mentioned again, like, as if they had been solved even though they really hadn't. Also, the girl who plays the teacher (Mai-chan) is kind of annoying... But most of the characters I found to be pretty endearing. Overall, it was more or less worth watching, but I don't think I'd watch it again. Up next: Hero! There's just something about those older, classic KimuTaku dramas, like Good Luck!! and Pride and Long Vacation (and even the sad ones like Beautiful Life and A Million Stars Fall from the Sky) that I haven't felt from his more recent dramas. Maybe they're missing the element of Epic Romance that I love from his dramas, I dunno. Anyway, I know I'm really going to enjoy watching this. ^^

Also, the end of The Quiz Show...was pretty much what I expected. It was good, but not surprising. I felt like the suspense was kind of gone, since I already pretty much knew what was going to happen. Also, wow, Yoko had some serious snot going on when he was crying. XD;; There was a bit too much bawling for my taste... Still really good though, just not quite as good as I'd hoped, I guess.

Nothing much to report as far as real life goes. Hung out with Jamie yesterday, then we went together to Chris's birthday party, in which we watched part of a bunch of Japanese movies, haha. Jamie and I might have to finish Koi no Mon, because it was pretty entertaining in all its crackiness. And Jamie, I figured it out! The girl is from IWGP. When I looked up the movie and saw that, I was like, ohhhhh. lol But I think the best part of the party was the photo session at the end, with such epic poses as each of the guys taking turns being a pimp (I think Daisuke might have done the best job even though he could barely stop laughing), and the white family photo pose. For those of you who have me on Facebook, you can see the pictures on there~ Hopefully I'll get to hang out with everyone again before practically all of them leave for Japan next month. XD;;

My dad and brother tell me I'm like a hobo because I have a (pretty big) hole in my sheets. I didn't have money to buy new sheets, and I didn't want to use other sheets because they didn't match. I don't think that makes me a hobo, jerkfaces. But I bought new sheets today (for really cheap, Target is the best!) so now everything's okay, haha. I also bought *gasp* an American cd today! The Black Eyed Peas' newest one. Who knew I'd like them so much? I usually never follow popular music, haha. But I'm listening to it right now and I kind of like it a lot. ♥

And for the record, this kind of stuff is why I love Aiba so much. He's so...special. XDDD

...I feel like I should have more to say, but I don't think I do? I clearly have no life.

I was trying to avoid it, but I finally did it: I made a Twitter. The guilty party is already aware of her guilt, so for those of you who add me (which I hope many of you do), if I start spamming you with random crap that you don't care about, you can blame Sarah [info]sapah_fu for that, yes? So add me, so that I can feel like I have a reason to actually use it?

Fandom-wise, let's see... Arashi on Music Station was lovely. Sho's arms, omg. And Aiba's fluffy hair~ I just want to touch it. I'm sorry, but I do. And am I the only one who wanted to see Arashi interact with Tohoshinki?? Come on, guys! I watched Tohoshinki's cut too and Arashi was totally cracking up in the back during Tohoshinki's talk part when they were talking about Junsu's oyaji gags, haha.

Music Lovers was also quite nice~ Although I wish they showed the whole performance of Ashita no Kioku. :/ I was kind of happy that they performed Hadashi no Mirai! And there was Ohmiya and Juntoshi, and Jun was really smiley and genki, and the talk part was rather entertaining too. Although I have to agree with those who have said that Sho seems to be wasting away. Go eat some food, would you??

Coming up next: This week's Shukudai-kun (with Hannya!) and the recent Heyx3. I have high hopes. :D

( They don't make 'em like this anymore. )

...Moving on. :D

So I didn't get to go online on Thursday because our power went out AGAIN. From like 5pm until long after I went to bed. Freaking ridiculous. >_> I hope they fixed the problem. The upshot of this is, though, that Nate, my brother's friend, was over (he lives on our street and so, hey, also no power), and since we had nothing else to do, we were all playing with our phones. Well, my phone doesn't let me make my own ringtones or dl them from anywhere, BUT if someone sends them to me, I can use them as ringtones. So I got Nate (who is enough of an Arashi fan to know some of their songs) to send me a bunch of Arashi ringtones. So happy. :D I want people to call me now so I can hear my cool ringtones, haha.

Yesterday I hung out with Alaina again. Because I'm weak, I was like, "...Let's go to Oto's." Bought a bunch of junk food, as usual. But I bought a kind of bread besides just an-pan this time. *gasp* It had chocolate in it! It was pretty good. Plus the usual stuff, like Calpis, daifuku, and melon candies. :D And then I was like "...Let's stop by the video store and see if they have Myojo." And they DID. And they also had an old one which I totally thought was from this past June until I was looking at it and the Young Song book was advertising Summer Time as a new single and I was like "What the...?" and then I realized it was from LAST June. Way to be observant, Amber. But the Arashi photoshoot is cute, and that's all that really matters, haha. When we went back to my house, Alaina and I totally did the Arashi quiz from the August Myojo. I think we did...reasonably well? Some of them I knew for sure, but dude, Sho, how the crap am I supposed to know what you were carrying in your bag on that day?? I just wish the cover of that Myojo wasn't shirtless HSJ with a rainbow in the background. Seriously, JE. -_-;;

So today I watched the last episode of Atashinchi no Danshi, which was pretty much what I expected except ( Spoilers! )

I also highly recommend checking out Gackt on VS Arashi. It was...interesting. I feel like Jamie would appreciate it, haha.

When is The Quiz Show episode 10 being released? I am getting impatient. I WANT TO KNOW HOW IT ENDS. ;_;

Yesterday was awesome~ Alaina and Jamie came over to hang out, and we pretty much sat around and talked about random crap the whole time, and then Jamie had to go, which was sad, but then I showed Alaina this week's Shukudai-kun (she wanted to see the sugoroku XD) and then the two most recent eps of Arashi on Utaban, cuz I know she appreciates geinin probably even more than I do. :D Then I had youth group, in which we played kajabe can-can (which hurts your hands really bad when you use rope but is still really fun) and the kids were funny (Lauralee got sand in her pants from playing tug-of-war, and she kept talking about wanting to take off her pants XD) and really, the whole day was just really fun. :D And then I came home and watched some Gakko ja Oshierarenai! (which I thought would be pure comedy but it actually has a lot of really serious stuff in it, unexpectedly, but the characters are all really sweet and adorable and I kind of love them ♥) and then spontaneously watched a bunch of Arashi performances and was flailing pretty hardcore until I made myself stop and go to sleep. XD

And then today was a good day too because my mom took me shopping. :D My parents didn't get me a graduation present before because they figured they'd pay for my plane ticket to go to my NAB interview for the missionary thing, but since NAB is paying for that, they decided that my mom would take me shopping for interview-type clothes. I ended up finding a lot of good stuff at Kohl's, which I usually don't have that much luck there, but maybe it was because I was looking for something besides jeans and t-shirts for once in my life *gasp*. I'm really happy with my new clothes. ^^ And then after work we went shopping again for shoes~ I got some pretty cute ones that I hope I actually wear, although it's currently summer and all, and so I probably won't wear them much because I pretty much just wear flip-flops all summer long. XD The only somewhat lame thing today was that the power went out like a little bit before I came home from work and came back on...just now. From like 6:30pm until almost 2am, no power. Which meant my dad had to take us out to dinner (Chick-fil-a!! :D), so it wasn't all bad, I suppose.

And then I just got an e-mail from Yuri saying that she'll be in Elk Grove next month! I'm so excited to see her!! \o/

...I really need a hair cut. It's getting out of hand.

EDIT: ARASHI IN DISNEY SEA. DUDE. Why don't I live in Japan yet. ;_; It totally buy Vermont Curry too...

Okay. So YesStyle has THE CUTEST SHOES EVER. Apparently they're Chinese, and they handpaint these. There's like 19 pages of different designs! And they're reasonably priced, which is rare on that web site... When I have money, I really think I'm going to buy a pair, seriously. So cute. The problem will be deciding which ones, cuz there are so many that are so cute. Although I kind of really like the "girls in winter" ones on the first page.

...I wonder why my order for All the Best is taking so long to process. I want my confirmation e-mail! I paid, dangit! I placed my order the day it was announced! I want to know that my copy of the LE is secure. ;_;

Speaking of Arashi, Utaban was FANTASTIC, omg. ♥ ♥ ♥ They collaborated with geinin again~ It was SO hilarious. Especially for me as a Sho fan, because Sho, towards the end... Well, you guys will see. ^_~ But man. So awesome in so many ways. Ohno getting picked on by Taka-san and yelling "カッチカチやぞ" a bunch of times at the beginning was hilarious. And the way Nino covers his mouth when he knows what's coming but he wishes he didn't is pretty much the cutest thing ever. And really, I think Aiba and Yatti should be a permanent conbi. Just sayin.

This week's Shukudai-kun is good too. Sugoroku, yay! But no stockings this time, awww. ;_; Maybe they've been using them too much lately, haha. I felt like the punishments were a little...weak this time? Especially Aiba's "hot" towels. XD;; But, of course, it was still fun to watch.

...Ugh, I wish I didn't have to wait until September until my interview at NAB! It feels kind of like I have to keep everything on hold between now and then, since it's still not for sure that I'm going to Japan. I have too much free time and nothing to do with it. ;_;

I forgot how much I love Tohoshinki's Bolero until it came on my Shuffle while I was on break at work today. Ugh, so gorgeous. ♥

But the real reason I'm posting now is because I want to fangirl some translations just a tiny bit. Like this Ohno interview, in which Ohno's image colors for the Arashi members are very creative. XD;; And that bit at the end, about how he wishes he could wave at every fan individually... So sweet. ;_; This one was pretty entertaining too. The whole thing is cute, but there is some ever-subtle Ohmiya in the color-coded part that totally made me laugh out loud. Oh Nino. ♥ This Sho interview (with links to the other parts at the top) was pretty entertaining too. I came across a lot of translations today, apparently. And I always bookmark the translations I like, and so my bookmarks are beginning to get out of hand... I really need to do some organizing.

Oh, and who else is as okay with this recent spam of Nino scans as I am? ♥ Are you keeping up with them, Kat?

Currently dl'ing a huge file size version of Arashi on Utaban because I apparently can't wait for a reasonable file size version to show up. It's Utaban, after all! Apparently they collaborate with geinin again, and Yuri said it was hilarious, so I kind of can't wait. :D

...I do have a life outside of fandom, I swear. It's just, other than the HORRIBLE heat today (a hundred and freaking eight degrees), there's nothing much to report, really. ^_^;;

So I must really have a thing for idols who fail, because I love Jaejoong. XD Have any of you watched Tohoshinki on Tokyo Friends Park II? It was fun to watch. ♥ Jaejoong is just too adorable for words. I mean, I like them all, but. Jaejoong failed throughout, like when everyone accused his score of being low on that one game and he was totally trying to play it off. XD And he was the only one who got tissues on that dart game at the end, haha. *makes a tag for Jaejoong*

I've only watched the Everything PV once so far, but even though it's really simple and would normally be boring, all five of them are so pretty that it makes everything okay. *_* I love that it was shot during sunset too. I kind of wish I liked the song more though... Maybe it'll grow on me.

It was over a hundred degrees today. It will be over a hundred degrees tomorrow. I'm supposed to do something outdoors tomorrow after church. I don't think I'm going to stay for very long. D:

...I am now going to watch the Aozora Pedal making of, which is apparently the best thing ever and yet somehow I have never seen it.

ROFL~ I love you, Shige. I wish people in NEWS fandom would translate Kei-chan's nikki more cuz that tends to be pretty epic too. :/

Random: Had curry for dinner tonight. IT WAS AWESOME. I love curry like none other, seriously. I spent most of my life not knowing the amazingness that is curry. SO GOOD.

Yesterday, my aunt took me out to dinner at The Tower Cafe, which everyone who lives in or around Sac should check out because it's awesome! The food is pretty good, but the best part is the atmosphere. We ate outside, and it was like being in a park or something! Trees everywhere. It was a really fun restaurant, and it was good to talk to my aunt. Even though some of the questions she asks me, I'm like, how do I answer that? Like, "What is your biggest struggle right now?" Um...having too much free time? I guess? -_-;; But she did suggest that, since I won't be going to Japan until next year, I should consider substitute teaching in the meantime. I'll definitely have to consider it. I have all the qualifications already, and it'll definitely be better money than my barely-over-minimum-wage jobs that I have now. Even though I'd be sad to quit Kumon. :/ She also bought me some awesome flip-flops at Target. My aunt is super nice.

Tomorrow I work 8-12 at Target, and that's it. I need to make plans or something. D: Anyone want to chill?

Episode 9, anyone? ( Spoiler-ish? Maybe? I don't really think so, but better safe than sorry? ) The last episode should be very interesting. I can't wait to see certain people get what they deserve. Actually, I figure it'll go something like this: ( My definitely spoiler-ish prediction. XD ) What do you guys think?

Also, after Kat [info]suju_storm told me that she already preordered her copy of All the Best, I was like, augh, I'd better too... So I freaking paid 50 bucks for a CD that doesn't even come out for like two months. Stupid Arashi. I HATE YOU. And by hate I mean love. ;_; But like I told Kat, I'd never forgive myself if I didn't get the LE. I mean, it comes with the extra disc of songs chosen by the members (and they chose some of my favorites, like Yes? No? and Oh Yeah! ♥), a 40 page booklet, and if I'm not mistaken in my totally pro except not Japanese, "special packaging," whatever that means. At any rate, at least now I know I'll get my copy.

EDIT: I'm sure you all have seen the news by now.

I've never read this before, and even though it's just a summary of the article, it really nicely summarizes why I love Arashi so much. The essence of the article is what they've gone through to get where they are, and what it is that has contributed to their success. Arashi is just so awesome. ;_;

Oh, and apparently Sho-chan cut his hair? But all I've seen so far is the screencap on the post about News Zero, so I feel like I can't really make a judgment just from that, haha. I was kind of thinking lately, though, that I wouldn't mind him going back to shorter hair. It's cute on him. ^^ Speaking of Sho, I am about to dl his appearance on Shukura Premium. Can't wait to watch it~ ♥

In other news, I kind of cannot wait for Tohoshinki's appearance on Tokyo Friends Park II. :D :D I saw the preview and Jaejoong yelling アホ at Junsu was so awesome. XDDD

I just watched this week's Shukudai-kun. It was awesome. High points include:

-Sho's fail!drawings (and Leader's...interesting ones)
-a new version of the game where you make up a song, in which everyone died of embarrassment
...This post is kind of ridiculously short, but I just wanted to post about this, haha. But most of you on my flist don't watch Arashi's shows raw, do you... :/ Except [info]anoudegozaruna, maybe. Anyway, this episode was really fun because there was lots of randomness and fail, haha.

Stupid Tohoshinki, always making me like them with their awesome songs. ;_; This song is gorgeous, of course, and the lyrics make me want to cry. However, it makes me sad that Changmin's hair is so short, and I don't even know what's up with Yoochun's hair... Everyone else looks good though. XD Although Jaejoong looks better with darker hair, imo.

...

*goes to watch Tohoshinki vids that she had previously skipped over*

EDIT: Jaejooong is so cute. ;_; He is seriously way too adorable. So guilty for taking 300 yen from Yunho. XD ♥ And forcing people to eat, haha. And he really can't keep his hands off of Junsu, can he? Goodness.

LJ tells me it's been four days since my last post. WHAT IS UP WITH THAT. I just haven't seen inspired to write anything, I guess.

( A long rambly paragraph roughly covering Thursday until now. )

Random: I dl'ed some old Arashi performances from this incredibly amazing post and I watched, I think it was Ashita ni Mukatte on Shonen Club, and it really struck me in that performance how everyone looked so different back in 2000...except Nino. Almost ten years later and HE LOOKS EXACTLY THE SAME. What the heck, Nino. Of course, all that's changed for Ohno is his hair, but. I was highly amused with all the Nino birthday posts that said "Happy 16th 26th birthday!" So true, so true. XD ♥

Oh oh! And in my second drama marathon of the summer (the first being Nodame Cantabile), I watched Love Shuffle last week. Yay panda~! I liked Nodame, but I LOVED Love Shuffle. You all who kept talking about it were so right. ♥ The premise makes it seem kind of...questionable, but the cast and characters were all fantastic, and the relationships ended up being incredibly sweet (even if I did figure out from the first episode who would end up together XD). I was really kind of in the mood for a more romantic drama, and this was unexpectedly satisfying in that aspect. Of course, the Tama-chans were awesome too. I think Tamaki Hiroshi and Daigo should for reals do manzai together. XD
