...when Ohno held the frame containing the picture of their mother, my tears simply fell. Every moment with each member in this PV made me cry. I just love everything about it!
From the bottom of my heart that unconditionally and unquestionably loves all five of you. Ten years never looked this good and I'll still be counting on the days that I will be continuously supporting you.
Thanks for making my life a mirage of red, blue, green, yellow and purple goodness! ^__^
...yesterday was the arrival of the 5 x 10 All The Best! DVD! ^___^
CDJapan is so efficient! My family kept it as a secret because I was badgering them by texting the whole day to send me an SMS message the moment the package would arrive at our doorstep. I never heard from my aunt who was at home that time. Imagine the incredulous look on my face when I opened the door to my room after arriving last night from work and there it was...the DVDs! They told me that it arrived in the morning. I just love CDJapan!
By the way, the second disc is pink! So cute! And you'll be surprised when you watch the videos. *winks*
It started out as a very comfortable evening at home with me downloading as always even though the speed was slower than usual. At the same time, I was watching the Arashi shows I've missed last week. After I was done with the first batch of downloads, I was surprised to find out that I have exceeded my downloading limit.
Amazing, isn't it? The Arashi Challenge Week has just started and something like this happened. I wonder what did I download for me to go beyond the limit. Hmmm? A LOT. LOTS OF ARASHI. Haha! XD
But hopefully my back-up plan will work. I can't wait to get home to try it. *crosses my fingers and toes*
I just watched last Monday's Shukudai-kun and this is so trivial but I got all giddy when Sho and Aiba mentioned Nata de Coco. With their smiling faces, I assume that they like eating it. What got me excited was the fact that I was talking about Nata de Coco, animatedly at that, with my colleague last night and how it livens up the usual Fruit Salad if you add it to the mix.
On
my right is an image of Nata De Coco which is basically a sweet, chewy
and sort of jelly-like dessert that is native to our country. It can
be eaten as is or can be blended with desserts, drinks or ice cream.
I can't believe that I even found a correlation between Nata de Coco and Arashi. Haha!
I think it's just appropriate that the only group picture I can find in my stash right now is the first image I have ever saved when I started in the fandom four years ago. It really is the circle of life. I came back from where I started. And I couldn't ask for anything more.
Happy Anniversary! ♥
Last Monday's Shukudai-kun had all the members auditioning for their guest and when it was Ohno's turn, "Your Song" by Elton John was used as the background music. It's ironic to note that Rida was doing something extremely funny and yet, the lyrics were melancholic. But the message of the song is so apt for Arashi. Simply perfect. :)
How wonderful life is while you're in the world."
During the ArashiC concert tour, there was a portion in their MC wherein Rida sang a short verse of a Ken Hirai song. Does anyone know the title? The way he crooned to it was heartfelt, which sent shivers up and down my spine. To say that Ohno sang it so beautifully is an understatement.
Thanks in advance! :)
My Japanese-English dictionary, that is.
Who would have thought that I would last this long? All thanks to 5 Stormy Boys. XD
...is not enough for Arashi. XD
I just had to insert 'twenty-four' because I've been engrossed in Aiba and Ohno's 24 Hour TV tasks for the past two nights. I've actually watched Aiba's 2008 mission last year and a few years back for Ohno's 2004 assignment. But paying close attention this time made me overwhelmingly touched by the dedication that they have put into making the dreams of the people they've helped come true.
It all started last weekend when I was casually surfing youtube and came across some clips of this event. Way before I knew it, I was hooked! Aiba and the little boy who dreams of swimming with dolphins started it off. He was very protective of the little boy who, in turn, revealed that he depended his life on our Miracle Boy. Aiba's nurturing personality shone and the trust clearly given to him only proves how kind, genuine and sincere he is.
But I was affected the most with Rida and the compassion he has shown. Seriously, his compassion resonates. He doesn't need to do anything and yet, his point came across clearly. Moreover, I don't usually cry but I was close to bawling out upon seeing Ohno's inability to speak because he was overcome with emotion. All he could do was give an okay sign to the deaf students whom he taught the steps for "Kimi no Tameni Boku Ga Iru" after they successfully danced to the song during the 24 Hour TV live marathon. With Ohno, I always turn into a puddle of goo (in a very, very good way).
I am truly grateful to be in this fandom. :)
INXS: Gunning for more records to break...Arashi, congratulations!
