Long week

rough week.

What, what?!? DDD:!!! I'm glad you're okay.

Things are pretty boring up here. Stupidly busy, but boring.

[klena.livejournal.com]

I am indeed okay! Once I get home and start to reprocess the trip I will be informing people of everything...I mean, that is, if people want to hear about it!!

Well, do not be killing yourself with work, even if it is boring! Plus I'm going to have to ask you to pimp a bunch of Arashi musics to me because I wants to hear them and they had "Happiness" on both Air New Zealand flights I was on, which is a blantantly the universe telling me to listen to these amazing boys!!

♥ ♥

[waxrose.livejournal.com]

Absolutely we want to hear about it! It sounds like it's been quite an adventure already. ♥

:DDD! Well, here's a few songs for now and I'll try to pimp some more later:

Aozora Pedaru

Slow and a bit sad, but optimistic.

Kotoba Yori Taisetsuna Mono

Recorded as the theme for the drama Stand Up!. It's just...a really pretty song? *fails*

Right Back To You (IZA!Now Version)

This isn't my favourite version of this song, but my only other version has about three minutes of audience noises and creaking, so this one it is! This is the song I use to lure those who are a bit scared of the sparkly-shiny into the music.

Kitto Daijoubu

The quintessential Arashi song! To appreciate the wonder of Kitto Daijoubu, you have to watch the PV. If five men doing an extremely retarded dance in top hats on a rainbow isn't enough to drag you into this fandom, I'm not sure what is. As for live performances, a lot of the promotion for this song was done with only four members, since Nino was in America filming Iwo Jima. The performances definitely improve when he comes back and everyone's all smiles since they're back together again.

Hero

I have about three billion (or maybe 7 :DDD) favourite live performances of Hero, from the sobfest after Aiba's letter on 24Hour TV to the end of the Around Asia concerts when the fans kept calling them out for encore after encore. I think the song itself was originally used for NTV's Olympic coverage when it was first recorded and it really is a pretty emotional song. *beams*

Hitomi no naka no Galaxy

I really like this one. It's soft and slow and kind of sentimental. Makes me feel like star-gazing.

La Familia (Jun solo)

Jun's love song to the rest of Arashi. D'awwwww. Woobie!

Hadashi no Mirai

An image song for an old Coca-Cola commercial, I think. Always a very EPIC performance during concerts, usually involving really special outfits (see icon) or feather boas. It's bouncy and happy and yay!

PIKAN*CHI Double

The PIKAN*CHI movies are hysterically weird, but endearing and this song is really good - the PV is awesome too.

A.RA.SHI

Because you are my soul soul. :)

....I love you so much right now Erica, my beautiful tea-drinking beauty. People should be writing sonnets and odes and epics to your innate goodness and the glory of Arashi's gayness and you just being utterly fucking fantastic.

I am watching the PV's and....loving them. Arashi are very special! I can see me throwing myself on this bandwagon >D

[waxrose.livejournal.com]

SCORE! :D I don't know if you've seen my old Arashi pimp post, but I'll make you a critical list of AWESOME YOU CANNOT MISS sometime this weekend. With lots of pictures!

I don't know how anyone could not like Arashi. They're sparkly and dorky and funny and love each other a bit too much.

Hope you're having a good day. I'm doing my best on my exam review. Yosh!

ETA: S-sorry for all of the editing! Brain not work proper now.

[klena.livejournal.com]

SCORE INDEED! I must have missed that but I am jumping on it now! BUT YOU ARE AMAZING AND THANK YOU THAT SOUNDS FANTASTIC AND PICTURES!

I am all for the sparkly and shiny and boy-bands being dorky and cute! ♥

Am indeed - about to make a cup of tea and thinking of you! Fighto fighto! I'm on MSN and stuff if you need to chat and unwind your brain~~

D:

I'm okay. Life is busy. Really really busy. And kind of boring.

Oooo but I bought a Doctor-esque coat the other day that I am going to wear with my Torchwood shirt!

[klena.livejournal.com]

:) Is okay now, sis!

Oh the life-busy-stuff. That is very common, it seems! Do not panic - I will be there soon! Like, within the next two months it seems! More to come as I know it!

Ohhhh! I saw this 'Rose' top like the one she wears in New Earth and I wanted it but I didn't buy it. :( But I has Rose earrings! We should do a few posey photos in NY!!

Is the coat lovely??

[angelbirdemmi.livejournal.com]

<3

Yay! Two months would be about the middle of May...right after my birthday :D

D: oh well...unfortunately sometimes you just can't afford those things. Ooo NY photo shoot FTW!

It is very lovely. And large. With big pockets! But I also got this very crazy dress, its white and has a corset top and is all silk and lace and beads and it was 5 dollars. XD It's like a wedding dress on massive amounts of steroids.

[klena.livejournal.com]

♥

I should be there actually around your birthday as the middle of May is when I'm aiming to fly home and I wanna be in New York for about a week or two! We will see how plans go!!

D: Tell me about it but! I am determined to thrift-store shop here in Chesapeake and if/when I see Joey and with you in NYC and there could be an outfit! But yes! NY PHOTOSHOOT FTW!

Wow! Sounds fantastic! And that dress - it sounds....special-! :D

[hartclanpaladin.livejournal.com]

On the facebox inbox :D

[klena.livejournal.com]

Will get to it as soon as I can, hubby~!

[blindeadmcjones.livejournal.com]

omg you got kicked out? Want me to come over there and rough some people up for you? )<

Although I guess that's the kind of experience you'll really value when you look back on your travels.

Ohhhh, a whale of a tale I'll tell ye, lass. Except I don't know any. I went to London yesterday and saw The Mikado and it was gooood. And we took my Gran to a Wagamamas for the first time.

[angelbirdemmi.livejournal.com]

Wagmamas?

Is that like...Wegmans?

[blindeadmcjones.livejournal.com]

XD Sure! If Wegmans are a chain of AWESOME NOODLE RESTAURANTS.

[angelbirdemmi.livejournal.com]

Oh. No. It's an AWESOMEST SUPERMARKET ON EARTH. With wonderful take out food, including noodles.


....



LETS GO SOLVE SOME SPOOKY DOOS, JACK. [/offtopic]

[klena.livejournal.com]

I do! And then I want you to come to NY and see Emmi with me! And we can kidnap Ash on the way, yes yes??

It's quite an interesting story - will regale people with tales once I'm back on the homeland!

Sounds amazing! Ooooh Wagamamas! I have never been there but I hear good things! But you're going to have to come up to Leeds and I will take you out to Little Tokyo - it's fantastic Azi, you'd properly love it! Promise me you'll visit! Where are you thinking of going anyways??

[sacchifox.livejournal.com]

!!!!!

I was worrying about you, I hadn't heard from you in so long!

Anyway, my life is musical. Literally. This weekend is opening night for the school musical, so I kind of...don't exist outside of my school's auditorium right now.

[klena.livejournal.com]

Do not panic! All safe now - is all good, am okay!!

I know - I did vanish for quite a chunk of time, didn't I? Sorry for worrying my little brother!! ♥

It is going to be amazing - good times, little bro!!
