oh dear

Arashi stalks me far worse than crazy Korean fangirls LOL.

I've been watching Family Outing and BGM (thanks Nino, for the abbreviation) is similar to ones used in Odoroki no Arashi.
To make my point clear, check out this video right around 5:38.

again and again

continuing the saga of Korean boy bands.

I have heard from an ol' trusty source that DBSK is unhappy with SM, their agency, and are negotiating their contract.

Their contract spans for 15 years! They earn if their album crosses 500,000 mark (REALLY?!) and SM pays them some 20%...
I dunno..the details are shady and the stuff being said is shady! AHEM!

Which brings me to wonder how much Arashi earns. The 5 guys in DBSK split their earnings equally.
Arashi too has 5 members and I think they said they earn the same 'base' amount. So much change does Johnny spare from his pocket?

I sure hope it beats what my previous part-time job paid me O___O

Its time...

I have fallen into the hell hole called 2PM and I can't seem to crawl out of it. Arashi, please make me excited for you again!!!

Yes, moving on from DBSK, I am now fixated on 2PM. They are a riot!!!! I think I am feeling like a stalker after I found 2 member's myspace and 1's youtube channel. I swear they were all directed O___O

I didn't dig them up but oh my god...
Jay, Taec, Khun, Woo, Junsu, Junho and Changsung (!!!) are all so addicting. I don't know who's my favorite but Changsung has a spot already, and so does Jay and Khun..(WHY AM I OLDER THAN MOST OF THEM...even if it's just a matter of few months :(

Check out their Wild Bunnies episode and their subbed episodes of Idol Army :)
Absolutely addicting!

Pssst...AKAME fans have a ball when these ranking usually come out.

I am lazy in mornings

My sister and I were laughing so hard at this video....it's funny at the end :D

Japanese & Korean Stars... similar?

stand by you vs. everything

The release date for Arashi's Everything and DBSK's Stand By You is the SAME. (although there is no need to, there is a slight uneasiness).

DBSK's new releases have topped the charts many times but this time they're going against Arashi, which may be a formidable opponent :D

I like both groups...not equally, so I'd love to see Arashi be #1 again, with decent placement for DBSK too, but the fans at Allkpop and other sites are raising my BP with little snides and insulting remarks. @___@

I am so getting multiple copies of this single!!! Thank you spiteful fans, you just made me all the more determined to get the single.

Uh...huh...

ZAP ME WITH RAINBOWS!!!

Enough with the cool and polished look. I want my rainbow-istic and technicolor PV's ...wow what a late rant...HAHAHA :D

I somehow managed to live through the pilot episode of The Bachelorette and GOD, did anyone else catch those subtitles when the British guy talked?!
He was speaking in English and they put subtitles. Someone else speaks in Spanish, or some foreign language (was too soft to make out) and they don't put subtitles?! OK WEIRD! I don't understand how the people at tv station think.

About a day or two ago, I read something in a DBSK community....(Bear with me as I jump topics :P )

Someone asked if DBSK members had Twitter account and listed a few. Those accounts had someone with decent English, posing as Yunho U-Know, Changmin and JJ.

I saw she had about 13 something comments and was sure that girl was gonna get snubbed, mocked and ridiculed to no ends.

Opened the comments and wow! They were so civil! Most wrote things like "Fake" and some explained why they thought the account was not legit.

I then compared to how some poor new fans had been so badly taunted in the...Arashi communities...by older, knowledgable fans. Not so much currently but man, those were scary! I feel sorry for the fans that were ganged up against.

It was disheartening how harsh people can be to one another, especially in a 'community' that's about spreading the love and all fun things...Tsk...tsk...

my thoughts

ARASHI fandom is quiet....and it's weird!

We were on such a ride in 2007 and especially 2008, somehow even with the 2 dramas on air and their numerous weekly shows, I feel there's a lack of news.

IT IS WEIRD! I wanted to throw in a Japanese word to make my point but I realized I can't spell it. OKASHII?

What's happening for the 10 year anniversary? I feel they're going to lose the momentum if they don't get things going. OR I am just antsy.

Since I have finally caught up...

NOW I get what everyone was going on about....Episode 5 of Smile...................T_______T

When the whole ordeal started with food poisoning and with the flow of the drama, I kept throwing wild guesses and one of those happened! :(

I am shocked! Nevertheless, I am still more of a Smile fan than the Quiz show, and I hope the ratings get better!

On the other hand, my dear laptop decided to get f-ed up. CONFICKER MY ASS!!!

Google redirects, numerous pop-ups and the blue screen happening. IT took 3-4 bloody days to get it fixed but it's done now! I am so glad :D

I can finally connect my hard drives and not worry about infecting my Arashi video :) Right after I went through the last 2-3 weeks making sure I had every episode of D, G no Arashi, Shukudai-kun and in the process of completing Mago Mago. I was mortified at the thought of losing about 500GB worth of Arashi videos.O_______o

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
My mom found out that the husband of someone she knows is really into Japanese fashion....She goes to the bathroom and there is...A WHOLE STACK OF ACT AND OTHER POPULAR JAPANESE MAGAZINES.

She excitedly tells me that the Tea guy (Matsuda Shota) and the guy who looks like my childhood friend (Nishkido Ryo) are in the magazine but Arashi isnt. LOL

Waiting

and so I am waiting for ARASHI's big news.

 

Everytime I log on vox, I come expecting to hear something Arashi is doing for their 10th year celebration but there's nothing! :S

Drama and singles are the usual stuff so what's brewing in Johnny's office? Or did I miss something?

 

Or are they going to throw it at us during the 2nd half of the year? HAWAII CONCERT PLEASE!

 

p.s. Yane, I got the gift :) Thank you and have a safe trip :D
