Hehe, even on your video there was a girl crying sabotage, and my reaction in it's entirety was "um... hehehe... ^_^;;;;" becuase seriously.

lol yeah... I'm not sure where people are getting these crazy assumptions, but.. >_<;; I just will keep my mouth shut lol

Aww Thursday Japanese guy sounds sweet~ XD

Of course Arashi's not perfect. Like with Jun, I've heard him completely screw up the beginning of We Can Make It! and it was totally his fault, but I still love him to death. I love all of them <3

haha yeah he was totally fun! I mean, like I said, aside from the fact that apparently he was trying to pick me up, we had a lot in common, and he actually likes Arashi songs! Some of them at least XD; he said he likes Kotoba Yori Taisetsu na Mono, anddd I forget what else XD;; and he likes Karaoke too so I hope I can go Karaoke with him!

Ahh I've always wanted to do actual Karaoke!! It sounds so fun~

I have a Japanese guy friend and he likes Arashi songs too! His favorite is Sakura Sake, and he'll also start singing Love So Sweet at the most random times XD

You know. About the FNS. NO singer can sing correctly WITHOUT and earpiece. The music is way to loud for ANY singer to sing correctly. Besides the fact that Arashi aren't really bad singers hence we hear them singing live in Music Station ALL the time. Seriously some people just don't know.

I haven't had a chance to watch your most recent vlogs, but I agree with the stuff about the FNS stuff...the sabotage stuff is ludicrous, and childish. FNS is risking THEIR reputation on this, the thought that they would sabotage one of their biggest acts makes me laugh. That being said, I kind of think that being professionals, Arashi should have been able to adjust and still do awesome...but I suppose they were just thrown off and shocked....

On an unrelated note, idk where you live, but how do you get to talk to so many Japanese speakers/ know so many Japanese people? I see almost none here except at Japanese restaurants or food stores....or store singular....

I am very proud of Arashi for staying professional and trying to continue on like normal. Of course there are going to be some bumps along the road, and I think Arashi is able to take them like a champ, especially with the support of each other! :D

Oh trust me, I live somewhere where it is pretty hard to find any Japanese people ^^;; so.. I try. REALLY hard lol.. because it seems to be the only way that I can get practice in :( ever since I moved back to the states, I wanted to make sure that I didn't lose my ability to speak Japanese, so I searched.. a lot lol.. if you are looking for people to speak to, you could try and see if there is any kind of Japanese alliance to your state..? Also see if any colleges have exchange programs, you can meet a lot of exchange students that way :)

simplyshiny514 December 22 2011, 03:59:36 UTC

hmm...Japanese Alliance, I never thought about that....any idea how I would go about finding one? And there might be something at the local college...I'm just not in college anymore...

eggchan December 22 2011, 04:03:05 UTC

i'm not a college student anymore either, but a lot of times the schools are pretty desperate for people to help out exchange students and show them around town, even if you aren't a student.. good luck!!!

^^;; I stress every time I know Arashi is about to perform live. "I hope it won't be terrible", is what I think.

I'm really excited for you for how you social life is that active, and how you are earning stable money now! I'm looking forward to that happening in my life. :D
At some point, I will finish my studies!

Have a fantastic Sunday, and wow!! One week from Christmas!! :D

eggchan December 22 2011, 03:09:28 UTC

yeah my social life.. it's active for 1 week out of the month and it's all in the same week, I swear! (for example.. this week I have NOTHING planned LOL sigh..)

Stable money is AWESOME THOUGH... but working 8 hours a day is not >_<;; I'm trying my best to get the balance right, though..

even closer to Christmas now.. eep!
