Reviving this blog (repost)
I am reviving this blog but I am now going to write about my love for Arashi. Be it poems or fan fictions. I just want to be back at writing again after I stopped for 3 years. I thank Arashi for giving me the inspiration to write again. I thought I'm never going to write again because I just don't have any inspiration at all.
Segue: I just find this funny... (well not the one that could make you laugh out loud but maybe the term I should use is weird). The years 2008, 2009, 2010, etc. were the years that the KPop fandom boomed here in the Philippines. My youngest sister got hooked to Girls' Generation and EXO. And the television (mostly music channels) now plays their songs left and right. So I get to know the names of KPop groups that somehow captured the hearts of the Filipino fans. There were names like (aside from the two mentioned): Super Junior, Big Bang, Shinee, 2NE1, 4 Minute, etc. And people would go gaga over and at them. When some of these groups went to have a concert here (including Girls' Generation), my sister and her classmates asked me a favor of saving them a place in the line of bronze ticket holders (yes they had bought bronze tickets I don't really know how much) because it was a school day and they were coming straight from their school to the mall which I'm guessing a 2-hour travel. So the ever "loving" sister, I agreed. Well of course, I got paid, so it was not bad. At that time I remembered being asked by a KPop fan which group I liked. I answered I kinda liked EXO, but when I think about it now, I guess I answered what I answered probably because I don't want those fans to mob me if I told them none. Or probably telling me to leave just because I didn't like any group so why the heck am I doing here. Well, probably you're wondering why am I weird? Because of all the KPop groups that came out, I could not find myself in liking any of them. Well that's just me. I don't really go with the flow. If everybody's raving about it, I'm just bound to do the opposite thing. Instead I may look for other things that few people likes. Or if a lot of people like what I like, at least none of them are my friends who continuously raving about it almost everyday. Actually in the Facebook community, only one friend of mine likes Arashi but isn't raving about it. Although right now I have online friends because of Arashi and the one friend I'm talking about is a friend I've known for a long time. I shoud have created an fg account on Facebook but since it's hard to maintain one account, what's the chance of maintining the other account, so yeah. So when I rediscovered Arashi (in reality I've known the group only by name since 2008 because of MatsuJun when HYD was shown here but not actually knowing anything about them but in 2013 when I learned of HYD movie, I got curious about the group and started researching about them and eventually changed my ichiban from MatsuJun to Ohno), I suddenly become addicted to them from their songs, shows, commercials and of course the pairings. Then I found on a website that publishes fan fictions and read Arashi fan fictions, that's why I became excited to write again and write my own fan fiction about them.
So here I am back to writing...
*sigh* my segue is longer than to what I should probably writing about but all in all that is actually what I wanted to say...
