Hey awesome flist!

Hope everyone is doing fine~ Ive been wanting to post a lil something in this LJ but I wasnt quite sure of what to post. Recently Ive heard of lotsa rumors & idols sightings updates but Im very sure by the time I blogged about my thoughts on it, it will be considered passé D:

However I finally have something to post here! Today was a very tiring, eventful & yet an awesome day.. coz I bumped into....
So random!! Lucky Im a fan since Waterboys XD
He looks exactly the same in real-life. And he was very surprise to know that I recognise or even know about him haha~ Cool guy. He seems quite shy though but he's cute XD
He came here alone, for some contemporary dance thingy...which I don't know what! =.=
And I think he was about to catch his flight when I met him at the airport.

WOW. 16 weeks. That is equivalent to 112 Days and almost 4 months of not updating this LJ account.
How is everyone?

I'm surprised I'm not cut-off by anyone yet =/
So thank you for keeping me. For whatever reason I'm still in your flist (dou probably filtered lol) I'm really thankful. Those of you who thinks Im no longer "needed", by all means, you can cut-me off (do inform me though so I can remove you from my flist as well) for I cannot guarantee that I will update as often as I used to. Sorry (>_<)

Why did I suddenly disappear?
I can say that this sudden disappearance is an "important breakthrough" for me. I used to think that I really cannot survive without internet for a few days. But hey~ I managed to do without it for a month! XD
This period of time makes me re-think about what I want to achieve in life. Real-life is something that I need to work on & am working very hard on it now.

Fandom yes. I still love my fandom, and am still here. Just that this break allows me to see fandom from a slightly different light. Having been into fandoms after fandoms since I was 14...I never regret it. But I've been wanting a break from fandom & I got it unexpectedly.
When my real-life gets "jamm-packed" with responsibilities without me knowing & things happen along the way such that I was "cut-off" from internet usage...everything just falls into place. I'm not exactly working but I'm currently involved in quite a number of "projects" that I need to settle first. I forsee myself to be busy until probably November or December. So till then, you wont be seeing me much. I still do know what's happening in fandom roughly, thanks to YOU ;)
So far it had been an AWESOME journey getting my real-life on track~ but I have not forgotten about this LJ & everyone of you.

Purpose of this entry?
Im still alive & kicking, and super-duper-freaking busy right now, and missing fandom but I have to prioritize my real-life for now =D
Im not very updated with fandom & flist. So I will probably need everyone's help by commenting in this entry with links to important updates, either fandom or your life (yes I wanna know wassup with your life too!) XD

No idea when my next post/reply will be so I take this opportunity to say:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!! (whoever had had their birthday during the 4 months I went missing)
SELAMAT BERPUASA TO YOU!! (whoever is fasting)
HAPPY 24HR-TV-ING TO YOU!! (whoever is uploading/downloading everything related to 24hr)

Hugs,
Wid

Random note: The school had Sports Day earlier and now no food is availble in the cantenn DD:

#1 Being an entertainer is never easy but it is us who make them stay.

Do read this even if you are not his fan and tell me what you think.

daelite says: Calling fans angels XDD I don't even know this kid and I love him haha

That is Alex from Korean boyband U-kiss, who by the wrote that in English by himself ;) This "jweb" entry makes me think about NEWS alot. Or Johnnys in general.
U-kiss members came from all over the world, facing language/culture barrier..They too did not have a good start too. And obviously had thoughs of giving up and feeling depressed etc (This is normal even for us human I know)

But my point is: Im very sure NEWS/Johnnys have had face more crap than U-kiss had.
So what if Johnnys, who are bound by their rules/regulations etc, are given the liberty to speak their minds?

WOW. Is all I can say XD

Note to self: I'm glad amongst all the groups out there, U-kiss "caught my attention". while everyone else is busy with other more popular/hotter groups 8D

Shoutout: queenofalldorks* Why didn't you tell me you change your username?? *pokes pokes*

Wassup' everyone?!!

Another random entry to prove that I'm alive.
Super busy period again (>_<)
Nowadays I cannot go online as much as I used to so whenever I can, then I will reply to comments and most importantly, reply on YOUR entries!

Coming Tuesday, there's the motivation-enrichment-class-whatever it is called for the weak-problematic students so that will add on to my already busy schedule but at least this will be fun (^^)v

Random mentions
Massu immediately said "Uchi~" like its the most natural thing to say when he was asked who is the same age as he is. Its a switch from not-being-able-to-say-anything-about-Uchi na~

Massu replied "Shige", when he was asked "Who in NEWS are you close to?"

When K-taro asked who in NEWS will he date, giving Massu 3 choices: A)Koyama B)Shige C)Tegoshi..Massu answered Shige again. While both YokoHina said Tegoshi XD

TOMA on SCP is loved!! It is not as emo and you can so feel his sincerity and maturity and his love for Yamapi, Matsujun and "No Borders" though he didn't mention them in detail XD

NEWS on MS..totally did not expect those white costumes. What is Johnnys trying to pull with Puzzle & NEWS current image I dont know but I am not complaining 8D


#1 Attended a prestigious event at Goodwood Park Hotel a few nights ago.
Goodwood Park Hotel probably has the best food so far in my list of hotel food. Ok so its a 5-star hotel but still~ The meat, the seafood, dessert.....SO DAMN GOOD! Too bad that day I didn't quite manage to indulge myself with their dessert lol.
( Kirakira~ )


#2 Wants MC parts of Concerts only!!

So almost every NEWS fans had flailed over the DVD that comes along with the new single and is praying for the full DVD to be out.
I'm not against DVD release but can I have more MCs in that upcoming release please?

While we are at it, I don't think I have ever posted these before...
The 31st Dec Concert was not very memorable so only posting these:
( My seats for the Osaka Concerts. )

And, I want to try posting one entry a day. You know, like those Japanese blogs. A pic and a random short post of the day type. Doubt I can even commit on that lol but I want to try! xD

I need to catch up with Arashi and dramas too (>_<)

Zzzz~

Random "ninja post"

How in the world...Revolutionist Che Guevara became their topic of discussion?
I am so amused by these two seriously.

One of my sane/unbias theory which I told my friend,
"They had to be talking about "Che's fashion-line" which in turn became a serious discussion on history. Nerds LMAO"

Since we all know Che can be considered popular in fashion-wise (see here)...maybe one of them was wearing "Che's" T-shirt and someone decided to be smart and beginning talking about Che.

But really, it surprises me they even remember about Che's history in details. Did they cover that in school? Hmm~ I don't even know much besides the basic coz he was not part of the course..Give me the French Revolution instead! LOL
I believe Ryo who is already street-smart, has been reading alot of history during his free time (since he have been spending time at home more than usual).

Flist. What do you guys think?

Finally a holiday!
Will be going for a chalet later to celebrate my first nephew 2nd birthday =D

☞ K-chanNEWS is having a special episode on the 20th April with Shige as guest and it will air from 10pm onwards.
☞ A NEWS member will guest in RECOMEN that same week. No idea who will come but I want another Shige x Eito combo XDD



☞ Koyama will be appearing on いいとも―！テレフォンショッキングpart on the April 13th. WHO WILL HE CALL? 8D
Yabe-san who acted as his elder brother in Hanayome wa Yakudoshi called him. They still keep in touch! ^^

Recently I have been listening to 明日晴れるかな piano version. It has the "healing" factor XD

#1 Toma's Jweb & TomaPi

Toma mentioned in his J-web 4th April that he will be singing in Domoto Brothers!!!!!
For those who do not know, he will be on Domoto Kyodai which will air on 26th April. Toma himself said, that this is rare! How long has it been since he is given the chance to sing LIVE?
Please let file be available immediately!

Reading his jweb makes me emo a bit~ It doesnt help that Im listening to "Open Your Eyes" right now (^^;)

Toma.
( I truly admire him )

If there is ever a chance for a mini-reunion of 4TOPS, I will get the ticket without even thinking twice. Same for Ya-Ya-Yah but we all know that is not possible because Taiyou is no longer around.
Hopefully with this, you guys would have understand why I'm still a fan of 8 NEWS.
At the end of the day, 6 NEWS or 8 NEWS are but just numbers to me because, their friendship to me, pwns everything else.


#2 Koyama's recent jwebs
Not exactly a translation but you'll get the gist of it ^^

( Oh Tegoshi~ what would it be like if he's a real friend of mine >D )

I still can't get over this:

I fail at updating. I fail at replying comments.
Really sorry about that (>_<)
I have been more busy than ever, even though I have been online and catching up with updates leaving random comments here & there whenever I can or need to.

Will flail more on the updates when I can find the time to sit down & make a proper post.

Probably my favorite song in this single. The lyrics mean a lot to me.




♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ "If you open your eyes, akiramenaide your dreams come true~" ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥


And am pimping this: http://community.livejournal.com/news_jpop/3934767.html
because TEGOSHI IS SO ANNOYINGLY CUTE XDD

I wonder if there's anyone in my flist who refuse to download this.
Probably you should defriend me now D:

*out*

brb.

I hope last week was the end of my hectic weekend. Oh and Dianne will leave for Jakarta tomorrow T_T

2ch Rumors Updates: For the fun of it because rumors nowadays hardly have any sources so no one knows how far are these true.

• Tegoshi went to Korea with his manager
• NEWS full con DVD is being edited now -> Not sure if this means a full DVD will be on its way by Summer OR it is being edited so that the 5 opening songs can be retrieved for the new single.

#1 Introducing: CONDORS
They were awesome. I don't care if they are older than SMAP/TOKIO because their music & showmanship = PWNZ IT ALL!!
Seriously seeing them makes me wanna kick myself for not being able to go to KANJANI 8's concert o(>_<)O

Ok so some might not agree with me, but I was thinking of K8 when they were performing. The lead singer reminded me of Yokoyama when he is 30+! Only with a slimmer & a slightly more serious face XD
And it doesn't help that CONDORS have "similar" taste in choreography LOL.

( Parts of their show under the cut. )


#2 K-Chan NEWS 230309

There's one part where they were talking about Shige's upcoming play. And from the way they talked about it, they seem to hint that Shige might have a kissing scene this time!

....whut? XD

Stageplay means MANY kissing scenes yo!
*recalls Koyama's HSM*

I wonder how Shige will fair in this if this is true XDD

==========================================================

☞ A rant on Pi's article and how NEWS is being "unfairly treated" while other groups had it all..to be posted next. Had to get this out as I think my rant covers slightly different views. Coz..just in case you guys forgot I am also a fan of ARASHI & KANJANI 8! (^^;)

Once again another busy weekend and Im having flu now.
Im hungry and have not had lunch yet D:
Will make a post regarding RL later.

Shige with a kid in his popolo photoshoot makes everyone 8D
but Pi's Myojo...



bothered Pi = bothers me a lot.
And it still bothers me now coz "I was found out" DDD:

*hugs Pi*

Daelite will post its translation soon

To Heppy, next time miss call me if I do not reply your sms o(>_<)O

And I'm hungry now...

Since I couldn't sleep and ended up posting around 0400hrs yesterday...I fell asleep before 9pm, almost immediately after dinner. However, that was after setting an alarm for two hours later as I had some work to settle. Even told my mom to wake me up before she goes to sleep but she didnt =.=

I woke up at 1.25am but when I was looking at the clock, "Oh man! It's already 5.05am!" *curse-self mode on for not waking up earlier*

........ felt so silly XD

Anyway, main purpose of this post:

#1 RUSS-K SPRING/SUMMER CM

On my way back from work, I suddenly remembered that RUSS-K CM has not air yet! So with confirmation from Daelite, RUSS-K CM will be airing on 20th MARCH 2009!!

Yes, that's like THIS Friday! =D

When nichiya is already here!...ok random.

( We might get something from NEWS after all?? )


#2 Bits from K-CHAN NEWS WITH MASUDA

I have not listened to it yet though but they played Yawaraka na Mama de!!!! ♥

( Massu is amusing XDD )

Will reply to comments & pm later!
*goes back to sleep*

Ok so Heppy will nag at me tomorrow for not posting what Im supposed to..Sorry Hep! Work has seriously taken up my time, mood and energy (>з<)

Before that, I will be doing a Friend's cut soon.
I usually do not add back if you do not tell me you are adding me since most of my entries are not Friend's locked anyway. But now, since I have plans of making more locked/filtered posts, I want to know who my "Also Friends of" are. Those whose LJ usernames I recognise, I will add you guys back by this weekend (^^)v
While the other 50 or so...tell me if you want to stay.


( 2 updates in case you haven't heard and er...rant which you can skip )

NEWS fans......can most probably relax/wait till FALL. Damn I know.
Least, we know there's a Shige drama 8D *gets shot*

So who is sleeping waiting with me?

Zzzz...

Sorry but Edit @23:43 >> with a RUMOR
Yamapi to go to Thailand for work this Thursday. Something to do with a TV Show and he will be in Thailand for 6 days. Source said it is 100% confirm BUT not sure if any of the other NEWS members or anyone else will follow him and she is not sure what this whole thing is actually about.

So RUMOR it is! Though 6 days is enough to make any fan nervous, what's more if he's alone. Anyone of you in Thailand can start searching more info for us. Thanks!

----------------------------- END OF RUMOR -----------------------------

Edit @02:30 >> Forgot to mention about the possible news coverage of HIROCKY later today. Coz there were many cameras.


Having a bad migraine o(>_<)O

☞ My mom and I ended up watching ROOKIES DVD instead of cleaning up the house XD
..no matter how many times I watch it, ROOKIES SAIKOU DA~!!!
Suddenly misses watching Shirota Yu, Ichihara Hayato, Sato Takeru and everyone else. What are they all busy with now? Anyone knows?
How to even catch up with them when I don't have enough time for JOHNNYS? O.o

☞ Nothing else except, 今年のプレゾン、博貴とキスマイの出演決定って
Yes you saw that right.

PLAYZONE 2009.
( It has been decided!! )


UCHI HIROCKY XD
Basicly his concert IS "Rock-ish"..sang a couple of Senior's songs and has 2 new solos..the rest are the same as prev con..I think.
Yesterday, he sang Osaka Rainy Blues, acoustic version & STAND UP >>> Someone better record these two songs!!
Today he sang TEPPEN and Osaka Rainy Blues!
Uchi started MC off by saying, together with Nakata & Hamada went to buy UFO at the conbini and crowd started cheering. UFO = K8. Fans are indeed easy to please na~ XDD
During all MCs, the topic was Kisumai-centered. Will check out the details again. Blames migraine so I have not been online much XD

Ok ok..some pictures from HIROCKY

( Can't be bothered to resize the pictures now. Sorry. )

Im sorry for spamming =/

This post is unplanned.
LOL.

Personally, I do think that the chance Uchi is being given by Johnnys is not working out very nice for him as some fans aren't happy..and some even dislike him more.
Budoukan is a huge and 'special' place indeed.
But then again since when did we fans really like anything that Johnnys Jimusho have done. Their decisions are at times, extreme and out of anyone's grasp.

So I have learn to stop questioning and just go with da' flow. It's not like we can do anything anyway =.=

Though one thing bothers the hell out of me, WHO ARE THE JUNIORS ACCOMPANYING HIM?!! Ok that is one question lol
I just realised yesterday that his concert is this Saturday! Time flies so fast? O_O
Seriously, this concert is so full of question marks.



Goods List:
Muffler towel (similar to NEWS WINTER DIAMOND PARTY)
Wristband (similar to KANJANI8's past concert goods)
Live photo postcards set
Poster
Jumbo Folder
Shopping Bag

*off to do work*

I wasn't planning on updating but

Uchi has such a LAME concert name (= =;)
But I really like the logo!
Design talk: Good Color Concept and Typography ;)
Therefore you can see it being balanced.
でも。。。なんで「HI HI」だけ黒いです？意味あるか？


Ok onto my main purpose of posting.
The first thing I do not want to see in the morning is this,
O___________O



( Did anyone see what I see? )

With regards to daelite's short translation of Shige's Myojo April 2009 Interview, I noticed some doubt it when she say that friend who helped Shige was Kusano.
So here is an old jweb early January of 2006 that I have saved into my HDD for my own referance.
Posting this up as it matches this interview ♥

As expected, they still can't mention Kusano's name. But having Shige talking about such an old incident with such love is good enough for me. Because it tells me that they have settled their "squabble" XD

MYOJO 04.2009 - Shigeaki Kato

• When it comes to the greatest pinch [tight spot] I've been in, that was about four years ago when I fell off the stage during a concert. I was running, facing the audience and waving at them, and then when I looked infront of me there was a Junior running from the opposite direction straight at me. I couldn't really avoid the collision and hit him and then fell off the stage. The stage was about 2 meters tall. I fell from that high up, it hurt quite a bit. Iya, it didn't hurt quite a bit! It really really hurt!! It hurt so much I thought I'd just leave but a member put his hand out and helped me up, and thanks to the warmth of that hand I was able to keep going until the end. Yappari, you really get power from the support of friends. You can overcome any trouble too　♪

Wagahai wa Shige de aru 1/9/06

( Kusano Hironori ran from behind and extended his hand to pull him onto the stage. )

From Dealite, Pi's jweb today:

YAMAPI SPENT LAST NIGHT COUNTING DOWN TO HIS FRIENDS BDAY, THEN SMASHED HIS HEAD IN CAKE ♥


*dies*
More to come ;)

I have so much thing to say that I don't know what I want to say anymore XD

Ah yes, Kusano Hironori seems to have returned to Japan. Not sure how far this is true but it is align with Kusano's "return to Japan before mid of February" plan! The man himself wouldn't lie yo~ A couple of other rumors up at 2ch but let's ignore them for now coz whatever will come, will come ;)


Update on Monday 090209 Koyama's Men-Ai

( LOVE 427 - NEWSMAMA again )

March magazines are full of
I have not read through everything coz the MQ are killing my eyes already. But so far the ones I have seen are TOTALLY SHARE-WORTHY! Have been planning on mentioning bits & pieces of it, but real-life issues kinda took my time away.

I hope the next time, the magazine scans could have one side measuring at least 2000px (^^;)

If I managed to make that post, I will post it over at news_jpop!
Although mine won't be a proper translation, but it is good enough an "over-view" I hope, especially for those who do not understand Japanese as much (^^;)

Yo!

Thank you klchlgal for getting me [CALL] postcards! *waits for you to return from Japan*

Recently, no idea why but my body clock has been weird. Will tend to sleep earlier like 11pm or even 9pm and wake up around...4 am. It's been like that this whole week. Glad that I finally could sleep early though but why wake up before I even need to go to work *shrugs*
It makes me more tired by noon XD

Speaking of work, had to sit through some Emergency Course for 4 hours yesterday. And it will be like that every Wednesday until March because we will have the full "Emergency Exercise" then. And I'm in charge of the "Traumatized People". Great..at least my section will have drinks, food and games to 'calm' those people lol.
Sometimes I wonder if the school here is doing too much but then again, safety is really important na~

Oh and random but despite working in the school for almost 3 years now, I have never "appeared" in the staff's photos! It's always the case that they choose to take photos when I'm not around. Thanks a lot.
============================================================

# SURPRISED 1! Food rant version.

Anyone who knows me well in real-life will know how fussy I am when it comes to shopping and especially food. So I obviously should have a certain expectation when it comes to hotel food right?
( Hotel food not my type. )
===================================================================

# SURPRISED 2! Japanese song out of nowhere.

Last week I accompanied my mom to do some grocery shopping at a Malay populated place, where its more frequent by aunties & uncles~ Decided to take a break at a coffeeshop for tea. And typical of a coffeeshop, it will have the stereo on and loud and mostly will either switched on to local radio stations or old Malay tracks from burnt CDs.

( A Japanese song amongst Malay songs...WHAT? )
===================================================================

# SURPRISED 3! U-KISS almost killed me =.=

So yeah I was outta fandom for awhile since I return from my trip and getting a pm something like this was not welcoming,
"WID...U-KISS will appear on TV for the first time ever in months, with their new single and NEW LOOK. Retro image & concept!...you know what that means!"

( U-KISS is indeed.....Johnnys-ppoi )

===================================================================

# SURPRISED 4. Didn't expect these but THANK YOU JOHNNY, for once.

Uchi will ruin NEWS members-Ai. Right.
Ok so these are old but I was waiting for HQ before I talk about it.



Slightly broken translation of the Words below picture says:
"Walking through the hanamichi, shoulders to shoulders (side by side), NEWS & Uchi, check out that smile! Yamapi too, looks happy~

And I just had to include Hikaru x Massu there because Ya-Ya-Yah x NEWS = ♥

( ShigeUchi exists. HAHA. )

AM super hungry now! But first, off to work~

#1 -might not be true-

There has been 2 reports so far about Jin being there(he stayed in his seats though) and how a a few Senpai+Koichi went on stage to sing with Takki but only one separate report which talked about Shige being there.

Apaprently, Shige too, went to Takki's last show [新春 滝沢革命] yesterday afternoon.

( Not sure how far this is true but..Shige x Wataru =D )


#2 Diamond Con 31st Jan MC report from my POV

Posting this now b4 it rot in my hdd eventually.
Im sure many of you have read this MC report so you can skip this part unless you want to refresh your memory. Because some people urged me on posting this, here it is..finally.
I don't think they are in chronological order and Im very sure it is not completed as I only type from what I can remember (^^;)

My first concert ever. It was very blur, and everything seemed to be moving at a fast pace because they had to get ready for the Countdown Con after that, even the MC was too short.
But not that it is not worth lol. Winter Party Diamond was worth!! The concerts that I went to have so much KoyaPi interaction ♥ but you guys know that already lol.

( But before that, my two cents worth~ )

( 31st December 2008 MC from my POV which is pretty much the same as other reports I believe )

Ok I seriously need to sleep now. Oyasumi~

Sleep.

I have seriously been sleeping way too much. No idea why I got tired easily these days. Leaving my laptop on while I went to sleep without actually planing on sleeping early (>_<)
Just now, while I talking to Heppy & Gem, I decided to go for a toilet break. Coming back, my head was still pounding so I decided to lie down for a while only to end up in an 1 hour nap!!
I woke up when Sakinah arrived & was frantically knocking on my door (she came over to take some stuff)
And the first thing that crossed my mind was "I NEED COFFEE~!!" not that coffee prevents me from sleeping but coffee is important like that <3

Have been super busy with work and other things outside work. Argued with my Admin Head regarding my pay. Seriously felt like shouting & cursing him there & then o(>_<)O
Eventhough I like my job and my boss, I want to leave this job asap.


#1 Updates on RL

( Friday night: BBQ/Chalet at one of the bungalows in Aloha Changi )

( Saturday & Sunday: Weddings )


#2 Cards that made me go "T__T & Awwwww" at the same time

I just unpacked my suitcase yeah I was that lazy/busy you name it lol and clean up my place a bit when I realised I have a few mails sitting to be opened.
Amongst those, is a card from Kris!! OMG did you know how O_O I was when I took it out from the envelop! Her card is so pretty and there's one thing on it that made me laugh real hard but it was really sweet of her~
( Snail mail is still loved! )

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO THOSE CELEBRATING IT!!
I would like to go visiting too coz Chinese New Year angbao is usually bigger than ours! XD

Am still not updated much with the fandom but will get back on track soon =D

Im alive and at home ^^
I still have not unpack my luggage though.
And I have not catch up with any fandom-related stuff. Nothing at all.
ARASHI? KANJANI8? NEWS? Bboys?
Update me please? What is up with them?
I want to watch BREAKOUT IN FEBRUARY BUT OH....friends forgot to buy my ticket (¬_¬)

*inhales~~ & exhales~~*

Been bugged to write something but I seriously do not know what to write about my trip. Sorry girls~
It was hectic and relaxing at the same time. Im glad I went because I really needed it. But most pictures are with Cami. So unless she upload the pictures, I can't make a picture-filled post~


Maa~ Actually Im quite stressed up now. It doesnt help that Im sick and work will suck tomorrow because the god damn school has not given me my pay yet so Im totally not looking forward to seeing anyone there.

*inhales~~ & exhales~~ again*


Anyway my flight arrived at 1am and the first thing I did when I got to my aunt's house was to eat local food!

( When I feel like eating, I really eat O_O )

So this became an entry on food 。。sorry！
...
..
.

AH yes concert report! There has been many around right? So I think I will only write my pov of it and what is not mention with regards to Daelite's Osaka entry~
Tomorrow. If there's nothing to do at work, I will work on the concert entry (^^;)

Ryo making the famous "GACHAPIN" face during the intro of 11th Jan concert eventhough he mentioned before that he will never ever do it again ---> Priceless XDD

And yes..You~ お誕生日おめでとう！！　＾＾

WISH ME LUCK FOR WORK TMR GUYS~

Greetings from Osaka again~ ^^
COLDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Met up with Yusaku. Having known him for over two years and he is still the same person despite us not meeting much LOL. Yappari...to work as a salaryman in Japan sucks O.o *pats pats Yusaku*
I now declare Yusaku as my first Japanese good friend! XD
Seriously, Im so blessed with such wonderful friends ^^

Bits of the NEWS Last Concert
I won't say its the perfect ending to a concert tour. But it is worth going (duh!) XD
Only two encores. And no guests at all throughout Osaka. *disappointed* *pokes eito*

During Murarisuto, close to the ending, Tegoshi came out in a school girl's uniform. His skirt was damn short XDD but he was very cute with the wig. I wonder if NEWS knew about his costume though~
At the end of the song, when Koyashige least expected it, Tegoshi turned around (he was standing in between Koyashige) and said, "Keichan DaiChuki!" *kisses Koyama on theleft cheek*
Koyama was caught by surprised and Shige too was "EH?" but they had to go backstage immediately so couldn't get much reaction from them and too bad it was after MC coz otherwise they would have talked about it XDD

Koyapi went topless ;)

Koyama was wearing the hat pin on his head while Pi wore headband so his forehead can be seen ^^

MC was very long and although there were some repeated topics, seeing "animatedly talking Koyama, Shige & Masuda", I cannot complain at all XDDD
No wait. Ryo didn't talk much *pokes* But he wasn't looking bored or anything ;)

Shige must be enjoying the attention he got from the audience LOL. He was 'bullied' alot. And everyhting about Massu is seriously so cute!

At the end of everything, they showed a video of NEWS sitting at the audience seats and signing 2 signboards. And stick it at two of the seats at the upper level. It was very sweet of them and lucky fangirls?
But EXILE did this before too XD

There are more bits and pieces that I want to talk about, esp MC-wise from all the con that I went to but my brain cant process much now LOL
I will be returning to Toyama tonight so everything else will be updated later....Maybe when i reached Singapore? Haha~

And so sorry for not replying to all the comments!

Greetings from Osaka.
had only 2 hours of sleep yesterday so I nd to make this quick and then go sleep!

Planning the trip to Osaka started out quite bad. Getting tickets to Osaka was a hassle. But we got it anyway thank god!
Just before the Osaka trip, Cami's friends decided to ditch us D: So we had no place to stay and everything else was unconfirmed. I was pretty annoyed and did not get any sleep, doing all the last minute preparation. Cami, Dianne, Laura and Heppy can vouched for that XD
We pretty much went to board the train without a place to stay and yet we were very calm. LOL

Arriving at Osaka.
We got on the wrong train when we arrived and we only noticed it when they skipped a few stations XD I was beginning to wonder about the hassle of getting off with the luggage but surprisingly, that train stop at our stop. YAY MUCH?

Then we randomly look for a place to stay and it so happens, the first hotel we approaced had rooms. The internet however state otherwise. It was because they purposely reserves some rooms for walked-in customers. YAY MUCH AGAIN?

Cami needed to get some goods for Clara so we decided to go to Dome though we have no tickets. Thank god the queue wasn't at all bad!
THAT getting goods trip somehow ended up with the both of us sitting in for the con, with Arena A2 tickets at a freaking good price O_O We went in slightly late though~
Scalpers are OK after all LOL. But a bit too friendly lol.

Since our seats are at the arena, we cannot just walked in like that. We went in being escorted by this really nice lady. And the minute we entered the Arena gate, we were faced with Shige who was looking directly at us. His expression was priceless!!

Picture this: We were standing opposite each other within 3m away, unblocked. and there was no one else behind us.
He had this, "What? Why are they there? Who are they?" but he smiled and walked off XDDDD
And then Massu walked past next as he was waving to the fans, and when he saw us standing there, he blinked twice with a "Are～？ kinda face before moving his attention to the rest of the crowd.

What a grand entrance HAHA!

If you wonder why, it was simply because in order to get to our seats we had to wait for them to "get away" from that part of the set coz we had to walked through it.

Then we realized that our seats were super good. But how sucky is that coz we have nothing to 'identify us with' XD Since we didn't plan to go for the concert earlier, we had no goods at all. The one we bought was for Clara so we cant open them.
So while they were singing, we decided to make a pathetic paper signage with only our countries names written on it with a marker LMAO


and..................


TEGOSHI SAW THE PATHETIC SIGN THAT WE MADE <3333333333
He was on the cart but still very close and as the cart moved, he was looking at our direction. The condition of the signage probably caught his attention amongst the pretty uchiwas hahaha~
With a microphone on his left hand, he giggled and then waved at us. Maybe he was thinking, "Foreigners might not know of the existance of an uchiwa" LOL
Tegoshi is pretty <3

Shige was right in front of us during Iza Na Izu Ki, and yes I saw the "Kuchizuke wo" from the side XD
He was approximately 3 people away but was standing on the elevated platform. However, he didn't quite wave around despite being so close.
But he still looks good though ^^

Later on, during one of the song, we had Massu on the same cart. Same position as Tegoshi earlier. Massu was really hyper. He kept wriggling his body and smiling wide and......if Koyama stole the show on the 31st concert. I say, Massu stole tonight's concert!


MC: Ryo mention Uchi again....twice! HAHA


YAY MUCH AGAIN? Seriously, it was a very lucky day for us. And coincidental too. We totally have no plans whatsoever but the day turned out way better than expected!
And we got to meet 2 FANGUYS! Haha~ We just had to make friends with them. Apparently they stay at the hotel nextdoor LOL.

More to come next time. I need to sleep and replenish my energy for tmr. Meeting up with YUSAKU!!! Finally ^^

Random note: Countdown in Shibuya Square was CRAPPY! I was like "Whut?! @_@" and went home.


HEY EVERYONE~ *greetings from Toyama*

It is freaking cold here in Toyama. Minus 5 people @_@
But I get to see snow for the first time ever! YEAY!
Sad life huh when you are born in Singapore and hardly travel LOL.



I seriously miss the weather in Singapore and I miss OUR FOOD SO GODDAMN MUCH......chicken rice, prata, rojak, maggi mee, satay, seafood horfun~~~~~~ (>_<)
As expected of me

Lesson learnt:
DO NOT FORGET TO PACKED SOME HOME FOOD WHEN IM GOING AWAY ON A TRIP *kicks last minute planning*


Anyway, being me, I ended up being sick on the 3rd day in Tokyo. Nothing surprising eh =.=
It got worse on new year. High fever and my head was throbbing badly. The whole of Shibuya seemed to be spinning from my POV. So I stayed home for half of the day after getting some Hot Cocoa and a melon pan from LAWSONS for breakfast.
Thank god, Im well prepared with the medicine except for the cough syrup which I really need now. Darn.


So...I did go for the 31st concert!



MC and the whole thing was shorter than usual with it only having one encore due to the countdown concert later on but hey...it has its plus point!! Haha~
However I'm sorry that I won't be able to provide the full concert report.
But I will list down a few things prolly in my next entry which I will try to put up before I go off to Osaka tomorrow! LOL

YES OSAKA~~~~!!!!!!!!
*pokes you-know-who-you-are* Dou desuka?? Will you be busy? *puppy eyes*


( Everything random & pictures under the cut! )

So I failed with the "Happiness Meme". Sorry guys XD

No choice as work really got on my nerves. So damn much but I can't quit and it's frustrating. Had to bring home the work I was supposed to do at the office with little sleep as my old pc went died on me a couple of times. And now, after having to work while everyone is having their holidays, I couldn't get my pay because of one damn person. Her stupid mistake caused me a month delay in payment.
What pissed me off was that she didn't even want to admit her mistake! *inserts curseword here*

So anyway~ with all the super hectic schedule, I had to prepare for my last-minute trip. Yes. It's a long story. But
I AM GOING TO JAPAN IN A FEW HOURS TIME!
Seriously needed the break please.

No idea what got into me, I just had to go for this trip. It wasn't easy to do it on a last minute and not to mention, without much planning. As Im the one who tends to prepare a lot before doing something, I'm kinda nervous as to what awaits me in Japan LOL. In addition, this is my first time traveling ALONE...scary much XD

Therefore, I don't know when is my next update going to be but I will try to go online asap (^^)v


Before that, thank you for your cards amaikoryori & alchemy_of_yaoi!!!

Happiness Meme #2

( in choronological order, )


Uchi's 1st ever LIVE showcase

If luck was with me, I would have gone for this concert. At least one of his Tokyo concert. Because the line-ups are all my well-liked juniors!
QUESTION?, Daichi & Kiriyama, Kisumai~
If ABC-Z, Junta and a few other Kanju~~~~~ it would be perfect! If only =.=

( So no detailed reports of this first concert yet but this bit of MC was funny! )

This is just a preview ;)
*back to work & waits for reports*
