Arakeshi... which means Arashi themed carved rubber stamps

2016-07-05T19:47:30Z

As I am not as much here as I am around Twitter, I was meant to post this ages ago to have all the pics as reference here too.

I like to make rubber stamps and got a liking of making Arashi themed ones...

Sometimes no directly Arashi related, like this Oguri Shun

Music Day related

Some more

cards and tags sets made with them (and that I gave away or sent)

Sometimes they don't come put right but in general, although not perfect I am happy and also learn on the way. I even got some requests which made me happy. It has been a while since I make one and plan to have a go again during this summer...

The king of romance

2016-01-31T23:22:20Z

I have been rewatching parts of NatsuNiji because I miss J being in a solo work (more than 2 years and counting) and also because this morning there were some caps from Hana Yori Dango Final (the scene at the beach in the island -where he appears as the most beautiful creature on Earth- and the wedding -that amazing kiss-) around twitter and that probably triggered the need to see J in something romantic.

NatsuNiji was the first Matsujun's drama I saw in real time, no in Japan but as it was airing I was following it and watching. I had already watched several J dramas by then which I consider/ed fav of mine, but I NatsuNiji is very special to me and I am not sure I can't explain all the reasons.

I think it is an underrated drama. I love Taiga so much. He is such a lovely character and Jun kun does such an amazing job with it!!! He also looks incredibly beautiful!

Today I recalled too how much I loved the opening credits. It seems like I haven't seen cool opening credits lately (truth is that I haven't been watching dramas, so that may be it).

Considering what I recall from the love scenes in Chocolatier, the super amazingly perfect kiss at the end of Hanadan Final and the awesome kisses/couple scenes in NatsuNiji (and Kimi wa petto, etc) make me firm in the idea that Matsujun is perfect for romance dramas. He does an amazing job in all of them... you believe his character is in love... you can see the struggle if there is one... and the most important thing, when he gets together with the girl/woman you believe his happiness, you can see in his face that he is the happiest man alive and that he will make her feel beloved and cherished. At least I see it this way.

In NatsuNiji episode 8, when they are at the top of the building and Shiori finally admits she likes him... Taiga doesn't know what to do with himself and when she doesn't want to hug and they end holding fingers you still can see it there, the love!! and when Taiga kisses her, first on the lips and later on the forehead you can see the tenderness... and how he hugs her... I just melt watching it.

I remember myself asking for him to do something different from a romance and I am happy he did Lucky Seven and such, but at the end of the day, I think I love Matsujun the most at what he excels at (apart from producing awesome Arashi concerts) and that is doing a romantic drama/movie.

I remember also how much I cried watching Hidamari no Kanojo. Such cute movie. Such cute character Matsujun created...

I usually have a problem watching romantic jdramas because the kisses scenes are such a disappointment (if there is any!)... and I do consider Kimutaku another one that does amazing kisses on screen (if you don't believe me check 2046 movie to start with), but if I had to choose one jdrama kiss to be the number one of my jdrama/jmovie kisses that would be Hanadan Final wedding kiss... The way he holds Makino, the way he kisses her, that hand holding her face, his radiant smile while looking at her with adoration and happiness... It clicks every button for me!!! (and have in mind that Hanadan Final is not my fav in the saga, I prefer series 1).

Having that in mind... If the rumor of him having a drama on TBS in spring is true, a part of me wants it to be a romance, a nice one with a nice actress (I still have my doubts about Ohno's just announced heroine). However, having in mind that Ohno has a romance, I doubt J will have one if the rumor is true. If a romance can't be, I hope he does a part he really really wants to do.

Whatever he decides to do he still is my king of romance.

Some quick Digitalian thoughts LOL!

2014-10-01T22:51:29Z

The cd cover for the LE edition... Hmmm, it's cool but also a bit weird. The concept is original and I will love the result when I have it in my hands.

However, I am a pretty classic kind of girl when it comes with Arashi on their cd covers and I love to have the 5 of them on it, not pieces XDD lol... It is ok, because as the freak I am, after checking the RE and seeing how the five of them were there and checking that the extra track is written by Sho, I went ahead and bought it as well.

I was going to buy it anyway, but wasn't planning to do it right now, but well, blame Sakurai and J's hair-style-that-I-don't-agree-with... Well, I should say, hair I didn't agree with, because it had to be a hair style of him I wasn't fond of for Jun to be all over the place with it... It was in Hawaii (thank you rain!) and immortalised on dvd. Now also on the cd cover, and don't worry, he will sporting that hairstyle also in the concert goods pamphlet, photo set, clear files and Johnny's shop photos... You'll see!

You know why, because J is set in making me like that hair!!!! *crazy laugh*

Back to the album... I am surprised there are so many titles in English (is that a hint?) I love the one titled Asterisk because I love asterisks! *more crazy laugh*

Stay Gold is a perfect title for a Jun's solo, let me tell you. Stay Gold you wonderful and beautiful human being! (also, Kono mama motto, anybody?!)

I'm a bit disappointed that there are only 3 songs with Sakurap.

I'm looking forward to Aiba's solo. I am expecting a danceable number?? (please)

And... Nino, I hope the Merry Christmas song you got out of your head and heart, is in some way dedicated to Aiba... It would be so wonderfully nice of you!!!

In general I'm having high hopes for these groups of songs, really! And I want to see what Zero-G is like right now!! Don't know why but I keep picturing them in Intergalactic outfits when thinking about it...

Also, also... the matsu-saku-miya logo for the tour!?!?! I am so happy!!! XD

October is a month of waiting... and I hate 'waiting'

Bluray software advice/help?

2014-05-11T14:27:04Z

After a lot of fighting with the BD I really think I was very happy in the land of DVDs...

I got a BD/DVD player for my laptop (external one) it's a samsung player and I have been playing DVDs with it with no problem. I tried to watch my first BD and I've been struggling all morning!

I can't play it using VLC because some library missing and I had to install the Power DVD 10 that came with the Bluray player but when trying to play a BD it says I need to update to version 12 and I can't seem to be able to do that...

I need some advice and help from those of you who already have a bluray player and are way more experienced than I am. I wanted to play blurays with VLC and I hate PowerDVD from when I used it long ago...

Any idea/feedback... :(

Of singles, pre orders and releasing dates

2014-03-29T21:36:37Z

Been busy with RL, still am... but I'm been also wondering about what is JE doing. Been wondering before Guts! PO but now that we know Ohno's drama is also having a single... Really, where are the cons DVDs!?!?!

So well, I made some 'info put together'... I wonder if I did it already in the past or just thought about doing it... anyway

~~Can somebody confirm with me the PO dates for the ones with ??? before the PO date? Those are some I ordered at YA and I don't get the right date in those sometime...~~ THANK YOU!! So fast!!

Also, I stopped at Hatenai Sora, because I remember that I got Dear Snow and Love Rainbow together because they were still available although I didn't preorder them...

Also, I can't remember why I could order BW dvd together with Face Down... Anybody remember the dates? Because if they were that close... it is possible for us to get Love or Arafes'13 dvd any time now or close to Ohno's single, right?

So, BW DVD and Face Down, and BW album and Scene + Dome DVD were released on the same date!!! So it wouldn't be a first if they decided to release Ohno's single with a dvd... :S I am worried now XD

Conclusion? Well, they can do a preorder whenever they one, of course... but I tended to think they had preference for Thursdays...
But if the dates I am not sure about get confirmed... they can surprise us with a PO on Monday too...

Also, look below... This is just me asking this to myself aloud butin case somebody want to give me their impression... Isn't it curious that 2008, 2009 and especially 2010 had so many singles released but after 2011 they stopped. I wonder if the big earthquake hadn't happened if 2011 had been full of singles or it was their time to stop releasing that much because they were a more than 10 year old band and they don't need to promote themselves that much...

I do think that they are not giving us goodies because they don't really need to to get big numbers anyway... but well, when you see it like this, in a list... you see the progression. I wonder if 2014 will mark some other change in their releasing pace...

1999 1 single
2000 3 single
2001 2 single
2002 3 single
2003 2 single (one double-A side)
2004 2 single (one double-A side)
2005 2 single
2006 2 single
2007 3 single
2008 4 single (one double-A side)
2009 4 single (two double-A side)
2010 6 single
2011 2 single
2012 3 single
2013 2 single (one double-A side)
2014 3 single (it seems)

Shitsuren Chocolatier ep 2 thoughts

2014-01-20T13:35:58Z

This comes after just the first raw watching... so well, they are just rambling before I forget. Want to know my change of thoughts after I watched it again and check the sub-ed version.

Spoilerish...

The thing is that Souta's passive-aggressiveness is a fact, and the worst part is that I love it. I love the whole love mess with a lot of people in love/obsessed with each other, keeping secrets from others, seeing the suffering in the other's face and not being able to do a thing, or maybe acting as they shouldn't just because of it...

I'm easy, so, so far I'm enjoying it terribly!!!!

First, Olivier as angel (white and black) was really good! I always find uncomfortable when I see characters from a jdrama in a church, because it just looks weird and out of place, but Souta, as character fits (his paranoias) fit into the, 'let's go to the church to pray to make Saeko mine' kind of thoughts...

Having in mind that first imagination he had where he got his happy end (poor thing! It look lovely Souta! <3), I really thought that Saeko's second visit to Choco la vie was another of Souta's dreams (the one were he was kind of cold to her) I thought it was another of his plans going weird and manifesting itself in his dreams, but it wasn't.

Don't get me wrong, part of me would act that way. I mean if the person I like plays with me like that, I may get to a point were I wouldn't be there even as the friend the other person so comfortably decided they want me as (just)... I dunno if it makes sense.

I feel bad for Kaoruko, because she is sweet, she cares about Souta and well... she is being denied as Souta was with the difference that she never said anything to Souta... And of course Souta with his head completely full of Saeko and plans to get her, just doesn't notice. Olivier did... but he has his own problems.

Love Kaoruko's imagination of her slapping Saeko repeatedly... XDD

Let me say that jealous Olivier is so cute!!! I'm enjoying all those crazy thoughts all these people get. Because let's be honest, don't you also have those situations where you wished you could act/say differently XDD It's fun when it is shown to us...

Shige's first appearance in this ep was cute but a bit plain if you ask me... On the other hand, Ryuta's appearance was brilliant! And definitely not enough!!!! But well, Elena is more bearable than I thought she would be.

All her talk about both having somebody they love and not getting there and how they should enjoy each other company meanwhile as they don't know when the other person will notice them (something in those lines she said, I think) it made sense and I'm glad that Souta went ahead... but there we got again his passive-aggresiveness... Because hot Souta is just too hot and that scene kissing Elena and taking his shirt of askdhfaksldfhaksdfkasdhfasf!! Gosh! I am not coherent about it at all!!!

Jun knows what fans like... so although some crazy ones don't want him with Elena in her tub, he knows most of us die to see him to get his shirt of... and well, he is a nice kisser (the best in Arashi until the others prove me wrong! -Yes this goes for you, Sho, for you Aiba and for you Riida... Nino, I pretty much think he kisses as nicely as J if he was given the chance)

Saeko, I would say I can't understand a woman like her, but I think I can... I do think there are girls like her... They want everything but sometimes without the complications of having to choose or make hard decisions... The marriage was convenient and probably she though Souta was going to be there like her lapdog forever because he kissed the ground she walked... and it's like that most of the time... but everybody has a limit...

Oh, and I felt so bad when Souta just got sick after Saeko went to Ricdor... I bet he was just facing a free fall into an abyss of a world where Saeko didn't come back to his shop, to him any more *pats him*

So in some way, Saeko and Souta are similar... Saeko shouldn't come back to the shop as she is married and Souta shouldn't dream about getting her back because she is married and she said no... but still they keep having their bad habits... They are definitely hard to break.

Can't wait for ep 3

PS1: You know who would be great in this drama (not sure which character yet)? Nino!
PS2: You know who I imagined for a sec in Saeko's character? Sho (the eating chocolate non-stop part and because I learned that there is a doujinshi placing him as her may be to blame)

Sorry for the ramblings XD

More Shitsuren Chololatier/Hey!x3/fandom related thoughts...

2014-01-15T12:53:45Z

I think I need more than several 140 characters posts to express myself... Definitely journal posts are way better for that... At least thoughts flow better (at least in my case)

I'm still in a post-Shitsuren Chocolatier flailing mood. I'm still really excited but I am keeping it to myself. It's that feeling of not wanting anybody to burst my bubble... Not sure it makes sense. I really love the first episode and my over active imagination has this little plot about how I'd like things to develop (won't last too much as the manga is around there and I'm checking it out) that I want to enjoy for a little longer, maybe until VSA tomorrow XDD

Shouta is so cute it hurts!!!

I wonder how J feels about episode 1 final result. Hope he is proud of it! Rating was 14,4% for what I've been told, which is good... But really doesn't leave a lot of room for decreasing right? I hope people keep being loyal to it. I wish those not living in Japan and watching counted *pout* You are doing great J!!

Anyway, I'm really looking forward to get to OST. Today saw a link to 7net shop that says that they will release it on February 26. So far, cdjapan/yesasia don't have it listed yet, but Amazon JP does have it: HERE So those using Amazon JP can already pre-order it. I'm really considering doing so myself...

Now, several other things I've been thinking/flailing/wondering about.

Ohno's crush on Satomi. Oh gosh, probably it's me seeing things where they aren't but, have you noticed how during Hey!Hey!Hey! they asked him to choose the person asking their question first, and he had two beautiful well known girls, Satomi and Rola, but he chose Satomi!!! XDD That moment made me lol big time! and I was telling speaking aloud to Riida, telling him that he shouldn't be that obvious or if the wants to, he should just take a step and do something about that cute crush! They would be adorable, don't you think? Well, at least I do XDD

I know some may say that it was good to start with her for Chocolatier promotion... but wouldn't it be better if she was the last one, following that line of thought? I dunno. I think he couldn't resist himself...

Also, I keep thinking that Aiba was the cutest thing ever during Hey!Hey!Hey!. when Sho admitted that he would date him when Aiba said he couldn't date Sho. He was blushing big time!!! I wonder why... was he really caught out guard by Sho's words, was he feeling awful because of the outcome... Because when Nino says that he wouldn't date Aiba, I bet Aiba was expecting that, since well, Aiba knows Nino as well as he knows himself, I bet... but he didn't expect that Sho said that and was so cute while saying it XD oohhh the feelings!

Also, also... I got annoyed by the Downtown guy next to Jun. Did you notice how many times he was slapping Jun's leg? That type of thing bothers me so much!!!! I imagine that in Jun's head there was this image of himself standing up and just punching the guy XDD The guy also dared to slap him on the head too... and J being the nice boy he is with that 'I am not really amused but have to look like I am' smile plastered on his face Lol!!

I would have kissed J when the guy asked if he chose Aiba because he is 'baka' and Jun said that he was wrong several times, that it was because he is a clear/shining person... *applauses and bravos to J* (the camera was on Aiba at that point, and I like that he smiled nicely to J) Junba was so very cute!!!!! --> you two can move together only if you allow Sho and Nino to be there most of the time XD (Riida would be probably fishing or enjoying his hamaka, or that floating houses it seems he is checking - not sure what that rumor is about)

Oh, that reminds me. I AM NOT COMPLAINING ABOUT THE AMOUNT OF SAKUMOTO LATELY. But I have this tendency to think the worst... So I wonder... could it be possible that JE saw/realized that sakumoto is a growing in popularity pair and suggested them both that they should be nicer/closer to each other... Because it's too good to be true!!! ~ ~ ❤

Bittersweet already grew on me and I already love it! Hope it happens the same with Road to Glory because for now, I am not really feeling it... :S I am so curious about the cd cover and photo shoot about it!!! Oh, that means more shop photos!!! nooooo! yesssss! (mixed feelings there because I want them all, but not sure when to buy them...)

They were really cute in the performance but I lol-ed so much when I saw a photoshop-ed image of them in that triangle like formation with a bonfire in front of them!!! Really!! LMAO!!

So, there are rumors of fans complaining to FujiTV for the bath scene with Kiko and all that. That is... so TIRING! I really wish fans in Japan would behave more, I don't know... normal? less pathologically clingy/jealous? I dunno really! Don't they realize that Arashi interacts/are touched by lots of people daily?! Those doing their make up/wardrobe people/dentist/stylist... I mean, come on!!! And they realize also that probably J and Kiko are both with swimming trunks/suits or something right? At least in their lower parts...

But if Fuji changes things because of fans, they will be the ones to blame. Since when that is the way to go? Now they are asking that, next time what?! In that sense, I'm kind of glad that JE doesn't accept all that fans say around (although they are already doing enough, not allowing them to date/marry/have kids) Oh, all those gray areas made me feel really 'blah' and disappointed in how things are in Japan entertainment/Arashi fandom.

Speaking of Arashi fandom. Let me say this: Yes, it's rainbow land, and yes, in general I am happy being part of the fandom... But sometimes, fans behaviour disappoints me and makes me go 'wth!' more than before, really... :S and it's just in terms on manners... I wonder, really what their parents taught them in that department :S

I had more things to say, but I can't remember now and this is long enough ;)

It's been a while... Thoughts on Shitsuren Chocolatier ep1 / Hey!x3 appearance

2014-01-13T13:57:22Z

I am not making sense... and there may be some spoilers (but just about the general plot)

How much I love this!?!?! You can't imagine.

I consider myself in the minority when I say that I absolutely love Natsuniji. It's one of my favorite Jun's dramas. I know about the bad ratings, I know a lot of people may not like Taija, but for me, Taija was a very special character.

After saying that, Sota... Oh God, Sota may join Taiga in that department (Doumyouji is still my ichiban for a lot of reasons, and I love Momo and Shin... well, I stop here).

I absolutely love Jun when he plays character who are in love! (that's why Kosuke in Hidamari is another one I absolutely adore). I don't know how he does it but he nails the part of heartbroken guy / guy fighting to get the girl he wants.

Not everybody can play that part without looking pathetic at some points and although I would hit Sota on the head a couple of times, I don't see him as a pathetic character, he is just hopelessly in love and in a very manga-like way he tries to get her back.

I really enjoyed the part of them in high school (Jun can't play a high schooler any more, I am sorry to state that) but he was really cute and so so uber silly!!! That was fun to watch!!

But, his face when his heart gets broken, is so amazing!!!! All the feelings a person having his/her heart broken were there... Those glassy eyes at the edge of crying... Oh Jun!!!! You got me almost crying and it's episode 1!!!!

I still have issues with his hair at some points, but overall he looks awesome! and I am really enjoying those dreamdreaming/dreams where he acts really out of his character and how we really would love him to act (at least me XDD) The comments about her skirt being to short and how he attacks her and mention that XDD So not Sota, but so manly (in an almost not right way if you think about it!!! :S)

Now, so far, all the characters, I like. Satomi is delicious and although I hate her guts for hurting Sota, she really does a good job being the pretty girl who knows the boy is in love with her but she prefers to play the fool and cute instead of facing it (maybe because she doesn't want to see what is there inside her heart, or because she is a heartless bit**, I don't know yet -haven't read the manga).

Aiba's girlfriend (I can't remember her name and I am not looking for it now)... I adore her. I would adore her if she was Aiba's real girlfriend, but apart from that, I love her as Sota's secretly in love helper. I love those parts!!! I usually fall for that relationship and here is not exception. I want Sota and her to end together, although I doubt I will get my wish granted.

Olivier! Oh gosh Olivier! I love him!!! I honestly love him so much!!! My favorite moment is when he is craving for the manga so much! His face, oh you hot/cute thing!!!! *squishes his cheeks*

But apart from that I ship Sota/Olivier!!! In some of the looks Olivier sends Sota's way, you can see that he cares for him and my slash-fic-reader-influenced-brain, can't help it: I see love there!!! Lol!!!

I'm fine with him getting Sota's sister, that way he'll remain in the family!!!! XDD

But for now, I will consider Riuta and Kiko as the baddies of this whole thing... Isn't he supposed to be Sota's opponent... but at the same time he is fascinated by him (which I totally understand). What is Kiko's excuse. Does he send her there? What Aiba's girlfriend would feel abt Sota having a bath with Kiko... If we talk about being heartbroken, I don't know who has it worse, Sota or her *hugs her*

Anyway!!! I can't hold my excitement!!!! It's been an interesting morning!!!! Watched Hey!x3 too!

Can't I just say that Sakumoto should just move together with Aiba (although Aiba wouldn't date Sho XD) That was totally awesome hardcore Junba moment or what!!!! But I got to the decision that I would date Aiba too XDD He brings flowers, he is cheerful and draws strange peanuts characters, hits Nino without meaning it and blushes as crazy when Sho told him that he would date him, can he get cuter!!!! Ohhhh Aiba, I can't wait to see something from your movie, you cute/sweet/hot man!!!!

I am sorry for Riida, but Ohno, you have too many hobbies, any girl (except all the blues I know!) would feel neglected.

I absolutely love what all (even J himself) know that the one being 'troublesome' is Jun... Oh! you! perfectionist man!!! <3

The performance... Well, I like the song more than I think I would. I love Aiba's shorter hair, and although I like him with clear hair, he looks hot as hell!!! I also liked his outfit, it was so Aiba like!!!

Sho cut his hair and I am hating him for that atm :S but well, he looked hot!

Nino's jacket, I want it for myself...

And Ohno wouldn't be bad with three kilos more... just saying.

The choreo is cool, except for that moment when the open like a triangle with no base... But the rest, and especially the very end (adhgfaksdglkADGFAKSDF how hot is that pose!!!) was very nice.

*runs to flail about the drama by herself a little bit longer*

Anyone wants this magazine?

2013-12-29T11:58:10Z

It's the most recent Myojo magazine (feb. 2014) with HSJ! on cover. Just bought it yesterday because it has two pages about Jun in his chocolatier drama outfit but the rest of the magazine, I don't really care about.

It has glossy double page (magazine size) with Yuta Tamamori one one side, Kisumai in the other;
Johnn's Jr. page of stickers.
Kisumai cardboard dvd/cd case as present included inside the mag,
closed interviews with HSJ!'s Chinen,
'Nude J's' section with News' Koyama (haven't opened the pages),
folded poster with HSJ! one side, Sexy Zone the other.
There are pages on Johnnys World 2020, A.B.C.-z horse riding, Kisumai tour, plus ton of Juniors I don't know/care about.

I will be taking the two pages featuring Jun but I am not taking with them any Johnny's pages!!!

I am selling the magazine for 2.50 pounds plus shipping/paypal fee (would send it the cheapest possible except otherwise indicated).

If nobody wants it as it is, I am open to do clippings, talk to me!

I paid (as you will see when you get the magazine 13.10 pounds for it. Magazine real price in pounds is less than 4 pounds, the rest is shipping! Yes! :S) I went crazy for a moment there. Really loved the Jun pages. Want to recover some of what I paid, and also that the magazine reaches somebody who really cares about the ones featured there, just that.

Let me know!

Selling Kimura Poster

2012-12-26T15:59:46Z

Kirin Super Fire poster in blue. It's a hot looking Kimura poster and I loved it when I got it and paid for it what I shouldn't have but it has been resting in the tube I received it in and never used it so I think it's time to let it go.

Size wise is around 70 something x 52 cm (I think) and it's in a very good condition for the age of it. It doesn't have holes in the corners or anything but it has the rest of adhesive tape at the back of the corners, not noticeable on the front or anything. Not creases that I can remember. If you want I can take pics of the parts I think are not pristine, but the image itself it's just perfect and in very good condition.

I want to sell it for USD 75 but I am open to offers and can negotiate the price. Payment is by Paypal and the price doesn't include shipping or Paypal fee. No refunds or returns accepted.

I will send it in the tube I got it back in the day (actually the poster arrived into a plastic protection and remains like that).

Forgot to add that I can only send this from now to Jan. 5 since I am back in the UK on the 6th.

sakumoto fics prompts

2012-06-15T11:32:49Z

I tend to repeat myself, yep, I'm like that. It isn't like I don't remember what I talk about but more than I get ideas fixed in my head and I can't shake them...

So yes, I am still sakumoto fic deprived. I've been re-reading fics I love and enjoyed a lot... I've been reading fics I somehow missed reading... I've been reading fics with plots that I may not read in other situation... I've been reading my own unfinished fics and notes... Inspiration to finish something eludes me lately...

*sigh*

As I said, I've been re-reading fics. Today I read some of astrangerenters because you know how awesome her sakumoto is!

I was doing the dishes (some stuff can't go into the dishwasher u.u') and I was thinking about these three slighly crazy sakumoto prompts and I thought I am going to post them openly so maybe somebody is inspired enough to write them...

The boys as janitors. The image I got in my head is Jun and Sho with overalls, like Ohno in Saigo no Yakusoku... (also I saw the pics of Jun with rubber gloves from the Waku Waku...). I imagined Jun with one of these black rimmed glasses that suits him so well. They don't actually have to be janitors... maybe they have a secret identity...

Jun is in love with the sexy manly voice in English he listens to and assist him when he calls phone assistance/customer service/English lesson online?... for whatever you can come up with (inspired by the teaser of next week's Himitsu, what can I say?

Snowhite retold ('Snowhite and the Huntsman' version of the likes -that I watched on Wednesday, not the Disney one, please!). Jun is the male version of her -don't really enjoy change of sex fics- Sho can be whoever you want but there has to be sakumoto and has a happy ending for them, that's all I ask (please don't make Sho a dwarf, please!)

*small voice* if you want to make any of this matsumiya I am fine with it, although I am craving sakumoto like crazy!

You may have seen this coming... but I didn't: new community!

2012-04-23T12:46:06Z

Well, I was wondering yesterday what I wanted to do with my journal... I want to keep it as it is... I am fine with the way things are going since the awful event a couple of weeks ago.

The thing is that when I scan magazines or photos or pamphlets I do it to share but I don't want anything like the yt thing happening and I don't feel comfortable posting in communities with my journal any more... so well, I can't promise I will be a good maintainer, I will try my best...

So yes, a comm for scans!

So well, although I may post the scans here anyway (not sure, probably I may just link there), I will post them mainly there. My idea is keeping it friends only but well maybe I need to open posts for a little bit for people to know it exist...

There is an introductory post you should read. Membership it moderated and all that. YOU MUST READ, COMMENT IN THAT POST FOR ME TO ADD YOU! (and click join, of course) and of course follow the rules...

Here: tokei_umbrella

Why that name? It's one of my fav songs and it sounded cute and not very obvious is you are not an Arashi fan ^^

I will lock this post later...

I got this question...

2012-04-19T00:00:36Z

I've just finished re-watching 'Myuu no Anyo Papa ni Ageru'... because well, I miss Jun and I really like that SP drama...

...but it got me thinking about the upcoming 24 hours terebi and the possible drama and I decided to make this little poll (just 1 question!)

View Poll: 24h terebi drama

I also wonder if there will be a theme, and/or if there will be a letter.

I get the impression that the boys want to make a 24h terebi about the Earthquake and how affected people or how they are recovering from it, so maybe a drama as usual is not the case... maybe a docu-drama like the one Sho made about Kobe's, or not drama at all (as I put up there as last option)...

Well, I'd love to read other people's opinion, so if you could elaborate in the comments section would be amazing! ^^

more spoilerish moments/gifs from mannequin 5

2012-04-12T23:09:45Z

This moment, it wasn't just Jun the one waiting it to happen... It was so touching to see him that happy!!! It was great to see him celebrating! He put a big silly smile on my face. (He was so serious during the whole shopping thing... considering his options and stuff...) Sometimes I think that he is left to be the last one because he is the one that get people back to earth after all the silliness the other 4 usually share with the viewers...

He deserved it, finally!! Congrats!! Can you believe that I was nervous?! lol!

... and the boyfriend, trying to find a way to celebrate the occasion on national tv and pointing out how nice he and the rest behaved... Actually, I think he was craving some physical connection... Oh mr. purple, you couldn't help it! Thank you! ^^

take a look at this (small spoiler from M5)

2012-04-12T20:55:57Z

Where is mr. purple heading to, all dashing and... PURPLE!? He is on a mission, you see. His boyfriend has something to celebrate tonight and he is dressed to impress him.

He can't deny anything to his partner, you see, because after quite a large period of hardship, his excellent taste in fashion has finally been publicly recognized worldwide!

He's on the phone with the florist to be sure the flowers are delivered at the right time in the right place...

So there goes mr. purple to get an expensive bottle of champagne and practice the last piece he has learned to play at the piano, to make the love of his life's day complete...

Aiba's drama theme!

2012-04-12T10:15:25Z

Just something quick... I've just listened (properly) to part of Arashi's theme for Aiba's drama!

It's a slow song, not what I had in mind for the drama and well, not sure it fits the drama yet, but the chorus is really nice and what I think it's the bridge is also good!

When will we know the title? (Will tomorrow be one of those days like some weeks ago? wasn't the previous pre-order on Friday too?)

However in the special they aired (afternoon in Japan), Aiba's drama looks really good. I dare to say that I probably will like it more than Ohno's due to the cast and Aiba's character... There were some hilarious moments and he was brilliant in them!!

The young actress looks nicer than Erika Toda, imo, and come one look at the three boys: Aiba, Okura and Fujiki Naohito, that is total win!

Magazines I need to sell

2012-04-10T11:23:03Z

~~I think I've mentioned it briefly before but I need to sell some magazines. I may be moving again in the upcoming months and I don't want to be rushing last minute trying to get rid of them...~~

I will be moving shortly now... and I am short of money, so I need to sell these.

All of them are in perfect condition because as the freak I am I like to keep them as good as new. Smoke and pet free home (and no, my kids don't come near my magazines ever! it's a forbidden kind of thing lol!)

I am shipping from UK. I accept Paypal. The prices here don't include the Paypal fee or the shipping. Ask me for a quote. I need the money so the prices I think are fair, but talk to me okay ;)

I am sorry for this, but this is how things work, bc wth!

2012-04-09T19:40:56Z

First of all, I have to thank kangsadanamm whoever that person is for ruining my day, my week and probably my month. Second, also hope she feels pretty good after she/he/whoever made me took this decision.

I am sorry, deeply sorry but there won't be more sharing stuff from me, at least not the way it have been until now because it's pretty obvious that some people don't know how to read or understand some simple rules, and above all doesn't know how to read the atmosphere or place themselves in the shoes of the person posting stuff...

I shouldn't have made a search because I would be happier than I am now, but I did, don't know why and found this:

They are already gone and the account suspended which for me is small consolation... Because, first... I don't include the don't stream in every single post but I did put it in some and there wasn't just one thing there!! Second, if I ask for credit I say put 'ginger' or 'ginger001' but NOT THE FREAKING URL!!! THE NOT LINKING BACK IS SOMETHING YOU DON'T GET OR WHAT!?

And even more... Don't you think that if I want to put the stuff up in the FREAKING YT I could have done it myself!!! For pete's sake what's wrong with people!!! 18 videos!!!! All of them can't be from here, but... seriously!! (now I am afraid they link that user name in yt to me when I don't f***ing know this person!!!! because I am paranoid this way)

Can't you suspect that the locking of posts, the not wanting you to use my mf links and asking you to get your own... and the not linking back, may means that I don't want things linking back to me (my journal!)!!!!!

Seriously I am so furious right now that I don't know what to do.

Now I really understand why things are changing around and people decide to leave the fandom... because... "·%!"·%"·&""&"W&W@€|#@~|#@~|! Arghhh! I am really mad atm!

Tracking down the user name, I suspect this 'kangsadanamm" speaks Spanish, so well:

No sé si lo has hecho con la mejor o con la peor de las intenciones, pero gracias por arruinarme la vida temporalmente. No soy la reina del mundo y no aspiro a ello... porque ni siquiera se trata de videos de alta calidad, los compartía con la gente tan impaciente como yo!
Compartía los videos porque realmente quería compartirlos pero bajo unas condiciones que no me hicieran estar nerviosa o preocupada por las posibles consecuencias. Gracias a ti ya no me siento segura para compartirlos. Te lo agradezco. Si estás en mi lista de amigos, me gustaría que me contactaras en privado y me dieras una explicación. Si no, y alguien te conoce de mi lista de amigos, que te agradezcan el hecho de que no voy a volver a postear videos en abierto y no sé si tampoco 'friends-only'.

~~OBVIOUSLY THIS POST WILL BE LOCKED IN A LITTLE WHILE...~~ Locked, I am too paranoid atm...

reminder about friending (again)

2012-04-07T12:40:16Z

Some people friended me in the last few days... Thank you! ^^ I really appreciate the gesture (if you did it with good will and all) but I remind you that the fact that you add me just means that you will read in your 'friends' page what I post for everybody to see which is not much!

You still can't see my locked posts and things will remain like this because

1) my journal is mainly friends only;
2) what I post in comms usually get locked in 24 hours;
3)I am not adding people who adds me out of the blue without even leaving a comment saying why they added me or just that they add me because they wanted me to add back...

No comment/message about adding = no adding from my side...

And especially if you have a journal with just 1 entry or totally empty or in a different language from (English/Spanish/Japanese/Chinese) I won't add you unless you say something to me about it...

I have no problem making new friends but I want those who become friends with me to at least talk to me or interact with me in more than just clicking in a link/read anonymously my journal, you know?

Sorry for all the trouble! I am not bitchy, seriously, just zealous of my privacy and security...

Hope you understand! ^^
