finally, i have my own ARASHI POPCORN REPLICA SHIRT~~!! yeah~~ i remember the time when i was a bit sad when arashi didn't have any official popcorn shirt being sold during their concert..


my friend is currently taking orders for it, and i bought one ^^.

tadah~!!

just got this picture through her fb page:)

the design quite looks the same, right? ^^.

but i'll take this opportunity to have a shameless promotion=)) you might want to buy it, so here's the link: https://www.facebook.com/Ohmiai oh, and she's open for international buyers too XD

plus, whoever wants to buy a brand new 24 hr tv shirt (2013 official white M size). i bought a wrong size T_T pm me for details:)


**goes back to flail world to watch arashi's fns perf**
for me, i really dont care if they sing live or not, as long as i see them performing and i see them happy ^^. selfish? yeah!

JE, why did you terminate koki's exclusive contract?? why can't he just be suspended from all kt's activities for some months???


this news really shocked me.. october is a month when a je artist leaves a group!! first, NEWS. now, KT!


bad behavior? rule breaker? a troublemaker? **cries** i really believe that there will come a day that koki and je would release a better and detailed explanation. They leave us hanging (-.-)

there are lots of various opinions i've heard. some says it's for the best.


i've already read the members' individual messages.. as for me, i'll continue to support KAT-TUN. i wont leave them, i'll stand by them.. it's really a shame that some people leave fandoms because the group losses a member.

Koki will always be the LORD/JOKER.
KAT-TUN fans will always be hyphens/royal subjects
KAT-TUN is still KAT-TUN as long as we believe in them.

to all hyphens out there, i know this news saddened us. it's really heartbreaking.. let's just support KAT-TUN and Koki in whatever way we can

i promise myself to post something in celebration of arashi's 14th anniversary.. my usual excuse of being lazy is not allowed!! LOL XD


arashi is...

a japanese boy band/group
a group of idols
a group of adorkable guys
a group composed of 5 people now in their 30s
a group made by johnny kitagawa
a national super idol group of japan
a group of guys being debuted in hawaii 14 years ago


but no matter how many years will pass, i'll still be one of the million fans who will continue to support them no matter what. their happiness is my happiness too XD

arashi might be yucky to some people, but i have an undying love for them..

they made my day bright and colorful
they made me happy when i'm down
they made me see the brighter side of things
they made me see the importance of little things
they made me see a brighter future
they made me realize the importance of my friends, family and of course, my life

and...

they made hold on to my DREAMS and GOALS in life <3

14 years might be too short and too long for some people, but arashi never seizes to inspire us in their own special ways. they make us cry, they make us laugh, and they make us ALIVE

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY ARASHI~!!!

Hhahahah!! So, here goes!

The other day, my auntie (dad's younger sister) came to visit us. She's living in hong kong and went to japan for a couple of days for a business trip. And she gave me these:))) **minus the eyeglasses**



I never thought that she would gave these stuffs to me. and I never thought that she would tolerate my craziness above these adorkable boys:)

By the way, thanks to hansuke2212 younger sister's kiirameku who gave me this *dear snow reg ed** the other month.



That brighten up my whole day XD lol


And i can't stop flailing over my new eyeglasses. Although it's not jins airframe, it's still jins:)))



I never realized that red colored frame suits me ^_^


Sigh! I'm just writing this entry because i'm pretty bored right now. There's flooding outside our house. It's all because of the southwest monsoon. Crap! And it's raining cats and dogs for hours. T.T and it won't even stop. :(

For those people who are in the same situation as mine, keep safe, warm and dry.

Hello and welcome to the world of the JE fandoms!

This post will be a sort of introduction/guide that will hopefully teach new fans the proper ethics, process and basic knowledge that will be needed. My sister and I both decided to make one.. so here goes..

If you are absolutely new to the fandom, you might think that almost everything will be on youtube but as you go deeper into the fandom, you'll find youtube insufficient. You'll crawl through download links that might be floating around the net, and find some people having access to subbed files.

the subbed files. These are completely free and can be found inside lj by subbing communities. If you find someone asking for money in exchange for videos, they're scamming you.

Now i believe that new fans need to know the hard work placed in these subbed files. What you watch happily for about 30 minutes take, like, weeks to do.

so here's the whole process:
-Subbed videos originally come from raw providers. Raw providers get their videos from sometimes unknown sources or ripped from websites. The videos come in their raw form. Big, cumbersome, ts and with no translations.
-Next come the translators. These people translate the japanese into english or to another language. This takes a few days for veteran translators. And weeks for others.
-Next come the timers. Timers time the subs to the voices and words written on the screen, they do this line by line and by the millisecond.
-Next come the encoders. Good encoders are able to reduce the files to downloadable bite-sized pieces for other convenience while retaining the quality and sharpness of the video. They merge the subs to the raw files to make them hardsubs.

Don't ever forget that these set of people do these for absolutely no money. These people have real lives. They have real jobs or homework or lessons or stuff. They do these for free and during their free time. They don't earn money for subbing these videos. So new fans will do well to abide by the rules of the subbing communities. They are doing these stuff for free the least you can do follow their rules right? by following these communities rules, it shows that you respect them.

To access these files (raw and subbed) you will need to create a lj account. This lj account will be your golden ticket to all the goodies.

When we were starting we were fortunate enough to find a veteran in lj who had like an open community and subbed lots of videos, from there we crawled our way up. To be able to gain access to those veteran and highly respected community, you need to be active in lj. You need to prove that you are not just a leecher and that you are a genuine fan. It's not that hard. Join new fledgling communities for starters, Just a single post once in a while in lj would do, just like what you would normally do in twitter and such.

And if you're going to download a video from someone's lj account or community, it would be common courtesy to thank them in the comment box. This will also help the mods of the lj community keep track of the members.

Once the video is downloaded or you got hold of the download link. Please don't redistribute it elsewhere. If you have a friend who wants to watch the video, tell her of the community where you got it from.

WHY??? Just keep it in mind that basically what these community/individuals are doing here is not particularly legal, and japan's copyright laws are really tight. Communities are already toeing the line as it is and they are keeping these things as closed as possible. Mods and maintainers are always trying to keep things in check. We don't want this to spread like wildfire and we are keeping our head down so as not to attract attention. Redistributing subbed videos to streaming sites or earning money from the subbed videos are not allowed because they might attract attention.

Hell, communities don't ask for money for all their hardworks. Because if things go wrong, you won't be able to watch your beloved boys anymore, not unless you go to japan live there and learn their language. Now some new members might find these stuffs annoying, all these rules and stuff. But don't you think it's a small price to pay for enjoying free subbed videos that's always there?

So our darling new fans we hope we've told you everything you need to know.

Lately, this issue/topic is bothering me.. It's about this fandom, basically in arashi.


First of all, i don't want to start a fight. I just want to clearly state my opinion here.. okay? :)

Last month, we all know about a fb page claiming to be the real arashi. Well, that community's dead already, right?

But someone told me about arashi's individual fake accounts roaming around facebook.. Again, they're claiming to be the real members. To make it more convincing, they even made accounts in skype, twitter and other social media. And what's worst is that they're bullying new fans.

Why? I really don't know what happen..

I'm not sure if some of you already know this. But it makes me sad, this fandom is supposed to be a happy place, right???

How many do you think are pretending to be arashi??? We never know...

I really don't get these people why they're doing this sort of thing..

Why do these people need to pretend that they are the real one when we all know that they aren't the real one?

Is it just for laugh?

For their own happiness??


So i'm writing this...


To all new fans out there, be aware.
Don't be fooled by these pretentious people.
Know your surroundings.
Know by heart what is the system in johnny's so you don't get fooled.

System? What system? You might want to search for that. One important tip is that JE artists are not allowed to have accounts in any social media network like facebook, etc.


To those said victim out there, block those people off.
Don't talk to them, don't bother replying on them.
Ignore them.
Eventually, they'll get tired and leave you.


To those impostors out there, stop claiming to be somebody else.
Please know how to respect.


I think this post serves not only to arashi fandom but to all fandoms out there..
