My Thoughts in Words

Please, just stop.

2008-08-15T23:20:00.003-05:00

Please stop asking me if I want you to do something. Of course I would want you to do whatever would put me first; I'm a selfish person like that. I'm just not going to tell you what to do. If you want to do it, then you decide for yourself. In my mind, you obviously don't want to do something if you have to ask me for my opinion. So thanks, but no thanks, I don't need your chivalry.

What does this mean?

2008-08-15T16:08:00.004-05:00

I've been having dreams of us arguing, being mad at each other, ignoring each other, etc., mostly on his part. We don't ever have actual arguments in real life; we might get upset, but never mad at each other, and it always blows over in five minutes; and we never would even consider ignoring each other. I don't know what to make of all this, since I've never had any unpleasant dreams of him before this.
Am I afraid that all of this will happen? Is it a sign that something isn't right? Or am I just overanalyzing and worried for nothing?

2008-08-14T00:28:00.003-05:00

I love Chris, I really do. I have given up so much for him, I have been living everyday for him, I have been doing everything with him in mind. I have pushed everyone, both family and friends, away, to be with him, to spend time with him.
But is it all worth it? My world has turned completely upside-down because of him. That future that we both want, yearn for, is it really going to happen? Or are we just living in our dreams?
I can't possibly give up, I don't know what I'd do without him. I just love him so much, and I'd be a terrible wreck if I had to end it with him. But really... I think I know in my heart of heart, that breaking up is what it eventually comes down to.
And that scares me so much.

Day 3 of 3

2008-08-10T00:21:00.003-05:00

I went to visit Chris at the hospital at around 3 today. His doctor told him that he could be discharged at around 2 but that didn't happen until around 4. I took him home, finally, and he took a shower and then went straight to playing Resident Evil 4. Surprise surprise. x] I was watching him, but I guess I was tired cause I accidentally fell asleep for a few mintues. :x Anyways, we later went to eat dinner at our favorite restaurant of all time, Korea House. Everything I've had their is just absolutely delicious and their sushi is just phenomenal. ^_^ It's not cheap, but it's not terribly expensive, but either way, it's way worth the money. We got back to his house, hung out in the living room with his parents for a little bit (which was probably a first for us :x)attempted to play this Chinese board game called "Go" but it was too confusing to me, so we just laid in bed for about 30 minutes. Then I had to leave, which was terribly sad. I don't like leaving his house, especially in the evening. I would much rather have just stayed in bed with him all night cause it was getting incredibly comfortable. :[
It's been a really amazing three days. It definitely didn't turn out the way we planned, and he's really sad/apologetic about that, but I loved every minute of the time we spent together, and I wouldn't really change any of it. It was perfect, just like him.

Day 2 of 3

2008-08-08T21:04:00.002-05:00

Today was our nine month anniversary. We were supposed to go swimming, but Chris left his swimsuit at a friend's house. We were then going to have a water fight, but he left his water guns at that friend's house as well. We then settled with having a water balloon fight. It was all nice and dandy, but he was suffering from shortness of breath and chest pains, so I made him a doctor's appointment and we went, hoping that it would be quick. A doctor visit, a chest x-ray at a different location, and another doctor's visit later, we're at the hospital, checking him in as an ER patient, because he has what's called a pneumothorax, meaning there's a hole in his lung. :\ It sounds bad, but his condition isn't terribly serious, since it's just a small hole. They were originally supposed to stick a tube into his lung so that they could inflate it, since a hole causes the lung to collapse, but the doctor said that since his hole is small, they could wait on it until tomorrow. If it doesn't seem to be getting bigger, they're just going to give him some meds and send him home. We're all hoping that's what happens...
Obviously, today didn't go as planned or hoped, but I frankly don't care or mind. I'm incredibly glad that I was there for him. I love the fact that I'm able to take care of him. It makes me feel like I can be a good girlfriend when I generally feel like I'm not a terribly great one. I'm so thankful for him, for everything he's done for me and has to go through because of me.
Bottom line: everyday we spend together, regardless of what we're doing, of where we are, of how it goes, is an incredible day.

Day 1 of 3

2008-08-07T17:22:00.002-05:00

Today was lovelyyyy. It was the first day of our date weekend. We watched "21", then took a nap, then went to get some food from Chili's, and then played a little bit of Brawl. I got my ass kicked by him, 4-0. x[ I was terribly close to winning the last one though. I will one day be good enough to actually be a challenger.

Sick of this waiting game.

2008-08-05T02:53:00.003-05:00

I truly, truly am getting tired of always waiting for Chris to get off work. I know it's not his fault, but it's just getting really old, really fast. He always gets off horribly late, and once school starts, I won't be able to stay up and wait for him. If this keeps up, I won't be able to talk to him at all cause I'll be in class or we both will be or he'll be at work. Even now, we can barely talk cause he wakes up late and doesn't have much free time for me before work. Not to mention the fact that he tends to go out with his friends when he has a rare early day. I can't possibly have him quit; it's a good paying job and he needs money. I can't possibly ask him to stop hanging out with his friends when he says that he doesn't want to lose them by not hanging out with. They'll still be with him long after I'm gone from his life.
I just don't know what to do. I get so bored and sad and depressed and frustrated waiting for him to come home since I can't go out or any of that shit. I just... really am lost and confused on this topic.

New beginning.

2008-08-04T22:05:00.002-05:00

I'm going to use this blog to really vent out my thoughts and feelings, since I'm sure no one knows about this.
I have nothing to say right now though, so until next time~

THE sexiest and cutest performance you will ever see.

2007-10-08T14:57:00.000-05:00

Satoshi-kun performing his solo "Top Secret" during their Iza, Now concert in 2004.
Honest to god. That move from 1:06 to 1:16. And they zoomed in. And he does it again at the end. *DIES*
The petiteness that is Ohno Satoshi makes me smile. He's so small that I just wanna squish him♥ And his beautiful voice. I would marry that voice in a heartbeat. What a dancer and performer that man is. Yes, I fangirl him too much. ^^;;
Still, he needs to make his next solo song a ballad. I know dancing is his first love and he likes to choreograph his solos, but I want to hear that voice dammit.

PS; I hate those stupid subs on the video. -_______-

The world is flat and gravity doesn't exist.

2007-10-04T02:42:00.000-05:00

Because I found a video where Ohno's singing.. is mediocre, a tad bad even? It sounded like his nose was stuffed up.. a cold maybe? No butter-smooth voice singing the first solo from "A.Ra.Shi". :[ But Captain is supposed to sound good all the time..
Therefore, because Ohno had one imperfect vocal performance, I think everything else I've been taught is wrong (hence, my title).
Yeah, it's an exaggeration, but I'll exaggerate all I want. ^^
Now I'm off to re-watch all of their other performances, so I can listen to the only voice that makes me melt.

PS; The dodo birds aren't extinct either!
PPS; He sounded amazing in the second solo though. I'm guessing he heard himself and fixed it♥

Jun-kun, please take care of yourself.

2007-09-30T20:58:00.000-05:00

I guess in his most recent radio show, he was talking about how he's always getting sick, especially around New Years. Whenever he mentions his health, I always think about his stageplay "Valkyrie" (more about this later). I don't think he's had time off since Hana Yori Dango started filming and that was around September of 2005. Basically, in the span of two years, he had three dramas, a movie where he was the main character, a movie with the rest of Arashi where he had a small role, two or three Japan tours spanning a few months each, one Asia tour (only in Taiwan and South Korea though), two end of the year concerts for Johnny's Jimusho, Dome concerts, two stageplays, three CD releases, and six single releases. He is INCREDIBLY involved in the planning of their concerts. Every single detail kind of has to be accepted by him. Not to mention the fact that they have to spend loads of time rehearsing and traveling. With CD and single releases, he has to do promotion (tv and radio and magazine), film pvs (aka music videos), and record. For dramas, movies, concerts, and stageplays, he also has to do promotions as well as rehearse and stuff. Plus, Arashi has two shows which he has to film every week. I guess my point is, he has a lot to do. Now back to "Valkyrie". He got SEVERELY sick at that time. Like, 100+ fevers, strep throat/flu. It was a really physically challenging stageplay that required a lot of harnessing. It was also really mentally challenging because it was directed by a highly acclaimed stage director. Jun is an incredible perfectionist, and if things don't go right, he always blames himself. When he got sick, he couldn't give his 110%, which further strained himself mentally. He apologized to the audience at the end of every show, even openly crying a few times. About the radio show, he mentioned that whenever he is physically sick, his mental state deteriorates also. He talks about drowning himself in work lately and not being able to stay in contact with his close friends. No one bothered to call him when he got sick, which made him feel even worse: "I'm completely unwanted by others". When I think about that time (even though I didn't even know that he existed then), it just saddens me to know that he pushed himself so much, yet he felt like he let down everyone around him. I think him strenuously over-working himself without showing his fatigue to the fans is one of the main reason why I like him so much. Anyhow, he hasn't had any solo projects since "Bambi~no" ended in June, but he's been immersing himself in planning and preparing for the summer and Dome concerts. Starting January, he has a couple of months of filming for the Hana Yori Dango movie, and it's rumored that he'll be doing yet another drama at the same time.
Yeah, there was no point to that unorganized and way too long post. It was just to show my admiration for him. And I guess to show that being an idol, especially a Johnny's, isn't as easy as everyone thinks it is. Btw, this is the one and only time I've heard him complain. Amazing.
You know, despite all this, he still manages to stay SO fucking pretty. Honestly, it's unfair. It makes me feel like a failure as a girl. >_>

My Favorite Momma's Boy♥

2007-09-24T22:07:00.000-05:00

Can you believe that this man is turning 27 in November?
All I can think about is how cute and adorable that babyface is.
I wish to adopt him. ^^

That laughing face. With the scrunched up nose. Seriously, it makes me melt.
Oh, and his eating face? It makes me smile. :]

Turning 27 and yet.. his mom still buys all his clothes (plus Burberry underwear!) for him. And he still rides the train to work. Because, you know, he's definitely not old enough for a driver's license. ^^;;

Happy 8th Birthday<333

2007-09-14T23:46:00.002-05:00

8 years ago on this day, Arashi debuted on a cruise ship in Hawaii. To commemorate their eight years of being together, I bring you short video clips that show why I love them so much. (Videos from yuckie-chan)

Because they're popular even amongst other artists♥

Because they support and love each other no matter what (Yes, Sho-kun really should be "leader", but I can't imagine Arashi without Ohno as riida.)

Because they would be this way if it weren't for Arashi.

Well, there you have it. Three really short reasons why I love them. Obviously, they're not the only ones and some of them aren't really important, but I'm tired after 8 hours of work and don't have the energy to make a real post. Besides, I have November for a real anniversary post since that's when they debuted in Japan.
On a closing note, I'd like to show Jun's apology to Ohno. Or maybe it's just an excuse to show how cute Ohno is and how beautiful Jun looks with his "Bambi~no" hair. ^^;;

~~PS; I do not know why there's a duplicate picture of the videos. It's annoying but I'm too lazy to find the problem and fix it. I'll do it later.~~

Because they make me happy when I'm feeling down♥

2007-09-10T23:47:00.000-05:00

Most of their songs are inspirational/motivational. I obviously don't understand what they're singing, but just hearing the songs make me feel better. Here are the translations probably my two favorite songs, lyrics-wise. Note, though, that translations are never completely accurate no matter how fluent the translator is.

Kansha Kangeki Ame Arashi
Thanks and Gratitude to the Rain and Storm

Smile again, I'm smiling again
Smile again, I'm smiling again

So so, there’s nothing good happening
Following blindly in this passionate life
Everyday, a fool
Digging my own grave and fall
But my heart seem to still long for something
In this everyday life without emotional feelings
An imaginary hope is “believe in love”
One day, the faith I once stepped on
Because I met you
My blood rushed

Facing the possibilities of breaking down
I can’t afford to hesitate
Seeing myself being so weak
I’m very angry
It’s just like being alone
Sighing
The blossomed flowers in the clay vase
Looked at me shakily

No matter who it is
We all live by depending on each other
Those innocent true feelings
Will heal our scars

Smile again, thank you
Smile again, in tears
We were born
Maybe the trials in life will make us stronger
Smile again, because you’re here
Smile again, I’m happy
Though I’ve never mentioned it
It’s the very first time
I treasure this feeling, which is like the storm

In times of sufferings, lean on me
This is my wish
The love of the most important person
Is a bandage for the heart
Unable to live a normal life like everyone
I guess it’s worth complimenting too
You, who saved me
Looked at me the same way

A heart without leisure and tranquility
I’ve hurt you without knowing it
But if we learn to forgive
We will become true to ourselves

Smile again, thank you
Smile again, no matter how many times
I feel I’m still able to stand up
My courage is a flowing fountain
Smile again, if there’s only one person
Smile again, no one will survive
With perplexed feelings, in faith so true
I pray, that my love will be just like the storm

So so, there’s nothing good happening
Following blindly in this passionate life
Everyday, a fool
Digging my own grave and fall
But my heart seem to still long for something
In this everyday life without emotional feelings
An imaginary hope is “believe in love”
One day, the faith I once stepped on
Because I met you
My blood rushed

Smile again, thank you
Smile again, in tears
We were born
Maybe the trials in life will make us stronger
Smile again, because you’re here
Smile again, I’m happy
Though I’ve never mentioned it
It’s the very first time
I treasure this feeling, which is like the storm

Smile again, I'm smiling again
Smile again, I'm smliing again

Fight Song

Always being your same old self is good.
It's also a better thing to not say, "Why?"
Will you restart from there again?
This is the thing that really suits you the most.

A person is a person, and you are yourself.
If you try and compare to something else, then you will lose.
In ourselves we have the strength to never lose,
So no matter what type of wall it is, we will break through.

Occassionally, it's good to cry.
And it's okay for people to see your weak spot too.
But, don't get stuck there!
You can still do it, go for that dream you had before.

No matter how many words you say,
Only one word can be the best of all.
The first thing to do is step forward for yourself,
"Do your best"
Even being that type of cheap guy is okay.

Even now, you might be worried about something,
Because it might be something that has been dented.
But, somewhere in the future with you,
We can laugh in agreement, we can make that path.

No matter how many words you say,
Only one word can be the best of all.
Come out from under that high place and continue up that slope.

Even now, you might be worried about something,
Because it might be something that has been dented.
After finally taking one step, you could start to walk again, couldn't you?
"Do your best".
You see, it's really a suitable reason.

"Kansha Kangeki Ame Arashi" is almost always the song they sing before, during, or after their thank yous. NewsZero did a segment about bullying and this song. A girl emailed in to tell Sho and the rest of Arashi that she was on the verge of committing suicide because the bullying was so bad, but she listened to this song and felt that she can get past it. "Fight Song" was composed by Nino and written by Arashi (although it's probably mostly Nino and Sho xD). It's an incredibly fun song and I seriously, seriously feel all happy when I hear it.
Just wanted to show people one reason why I love Arashi.

Lyrics from arashian

They're sending me secret messages xD

2007-09-10T15:42:00.000-05:00

Evidence #1
In a behind the scenes clip from "Letters from Iwo Jima", I caught Nino wearing this:
Yes, folks. That is a UT jacket. Burnt orange and Bevo galore. I wonder though.. what made him wear this? I'm sure the only school asians know is Berkeley.

Evidence #2
The most important thing about their choreography for "Happiness"? This:

Yes, folks. That is the UT symbol. This time, I wonder how they came up with it. The only symbol the Japanese make is .
So yes, that is my case. I suppose it makes me like Texas, or rather Austin, a tad more.

On a closing note, I love their performance of the song. It's so adorable, and they have so much energy. I think all of their choreography (except for maybe a few of their older songs) is more aimed towards cute than showcasing their dancing talent. Anyhow, here's their Utaban performance. Love the backdrop (it's really random though). The outfit? I've watched the video so much that I've actually started to like the purpleness. (PS; I think the Rolling Stones shirts that Aiba and Ohno are wearing are from Jun's closet.)

Arashi gives love advice

2007-09-09T11:25:00.000-05:00

This is a new corner on their show "Arashi no Shukudai-kun" (translation: Arashi's Homework). Viewers e-mail their love problems and the members suggest solutions. Their answers show their personality REALLY well. I really love this segment. :D

Anyhow, their episode from last week was a Shukudai special that showed unaired footage. One of them was of the love advice segment from 4/23. The viewer who wrote in is a college freshman. He has taken a liking to this girl that works at a convenience store near his house. They speak once in a while, but he's too nervous to ask her out. How should he do it and what should he say?
Aiba is first, as always.

Boy: Ah, I'll have this one please.
Girl: Ah, this one right, okay. Beep, beep. Shall I warm up this bentou for you?
Boy: No, it's fine. Um... please warm up my heart.

Keke, that is so totally Aiba. He's so adorable before, during, and after the thing. My favorite dork of all. ^^♥ And his hair.. I want to comb it with my hands cause it looks so soft. =X
Nino is next.

Yes. Ahh. Convenience stores are open for 24 hours but... I go for 24 hours too!

HAHA, this is completely different from the other advice he gives out, but it's still soo him. He's so overly confident. ^^♥ How cute did he look with that salute of his at the end? And uh, what do you mean you go for 24hours? ^_-
Ohno is after Nino.

Um... I'll give you the change, so please go on a date with me next time.

CUTE. The way he says it is soo matter-of-factly. He's always so straight-forward. And the faces that he makes. *dies* I love all of his advice. There's not one where I don't laugh. Have I mentioned that he makes cute faces? ^^♥
Jun, the romantic of the group, is next.

Then, please give me this one. Yes, this is all for today. Um... this is so sudden that it might be a little rude but, I'll buy all the items in this store one by one so, while I'm doing that, let's talk for a little bit, and if you're alright with it, please be friends with me... something like that.

Kyaa, he melts my heart<33333. All (but one) of his advice is the sweetest, most romantic, make-me-melt lines. He's always so polite too. AND HIS OUTFIT AND HAIR. THIS IS WHY I LOVE HIM. He's so pretty. ^^♥ And for the record, girls would ask him out left and right the second he enters the convenience store, me included. ^^;; (PS; Note how they saved his actual advice for after the commercial?)
Last, but not least (in terms of entertainment xD), is Sho.

Um... may I have the receipt please? Yes. I have a pen. Thank you. This is um... my phone number, so if it's alright with you, please give me a call.

... Sho fails so hard. He looks so distraught at the end, like "I hate this corner; it's ruining my intellectual image". But he looks so cute and it's funny seeing everyone laugh at him. =X

So, seeing how horrible Sho is at this corner, they decide to make only him do it. This is from the actual show (aired 9/3) and not from a previous episode. The (fake) situation this time: the Red Ranger has fallen in love with the Pink Ranger. He would like to know how to ask her out.

Though you always shake hands with kids... this time... shake hands with me!

Always... we're with Green... With Yellow... ah. And Blue's around too. With them around... I can't really talk to you much but, the truth is, well, I like Pink... So when Green and Yellow and Blue aren't around... shall we create a new fighting unit with just the two of us? From Red.

Green is... Green is very strong. Blue is... fast on his feet. Yellow, no matter what, loves curry. But Red, loves Pink. From Red.

OMG I LAUGHED SO HARD WHEN I SAW THIS. He actually attempted it three times.. and it gets worse and worse. He looks like he's trying his hardest too! XD Poor Sho, looked like he wanted to die. Ogu-san.. laughs really hard. He's really comfortable around the guys, even though he's 60. The cameramen or whoever they are.. are probably wondering how they all managed to become idols. Nino keeps on having snide remarks, nothing strange about that. He enjoys making fun of the members. Aiba.. is trying his best at not laughing and making things worse for Sho. But he enjoys it, you know he does, since it's usually him that everyone laughs at. Jun, being polite as always. He obviously only enjoys seeing people physically suffer, not psychologically. x] AND OHNO. HIS LAUGH! It's soooooo adorable. He looks like his stomach is going to burst. He takes so much enjoyment in this.

By the way, I'd like to note how different Aiba, Jun, and Sho look compared to April. Aiba's hair used to be straight, but recently, he got it permed for his stageplay. I LOVE HIS NEW HAIR. It really, really suits him, so much so that sometimes he exceeds Jun in looks. I hope he keeps the hair for a while. Also to do with hair, Jun had his very beautiful and befitting "Bambi~no!" hair. Now, he has his extensions and mullet-like hairstyle. I somewhat liked his extensions in the beginning, but it's getting too long. I mean, he still looks pretty (depending on what he wears; that striped shirt doesn't flatter him, in my opinion), but, his "Bambi~no!" hairstyle suited him SO well. I mean, he looked good all the time. I miss it. :[ Bring it back! And Sho. Do you see the difference in his weight? It's so obvious. I miss his beer belly dammit! Eat and drink more beer Sho! He had to lose weight for his character in "Yamada Taro" (only the Japanese would make a 130lbs guy lose weight -____-), but since filming has ended, he should get back to his old weight. I think he's too skinny. x[

I'll have subbed videos of the previoius love advice corner. They're so entertaining. Oh, Arashi<3.
(PS; Translations from aatash)

Three random topics.

2007-09-09T02:22:00.001-05:00

MY "HAPPINESS" SINGLE CAME IN THE MAIL TODAYYYYYYYY. OMG, I thought that they looked incredibly beautiful in the scans of the cd cover and backing, but they looked even BETTER on the actual thing. I've been waiting for this stupid thing since the fourth. Tonnu is a happy fangirl. ^^♥ (PS; Do the pictures look familiar? xD)

Regarding the list for "Japanese That Make Japan Proud", the official list came out. I believe there was 2000 different people to vote from.
For the men (in blue), Ichiro, the outfielder for the Mariners, got number one by a landslide. Ken Watanabe got number two, which surprised me because I didn't know that he was that big in Japan. On to the important person though. See number nine? The kanji stands for Ninomiya Kazunari. Keke ^^. He's the youngest one on the list too, out of both men and women. Awesome. This is only going to inflate his already over-confident self-esteem. Harhar, nonetheless, omedetou Kazu-kun♥.
This got me thinking. Nino got on the list because of "Letters From Iwo Jima" and it's success overseas. Does that mean that if "Kiiroi Namida" had made the cut for the Canne's Film Festival and won, Arashi, as a whole, would've been on the list too? Ah, that would've been the best. Too bad they didn't ^^;; Sighhh, I want to buy that movie. Too bad it's $75..

Which brings me on to my third subject. Japanese cds and movies are so fricking overpriced! The "Happiness" single? About $15. For three songs. $15 buys you a full cd here in the US. The "Time" CD? About $32. More expensive than a movie here. The "Kiiroi Namida", as mentioned before, is $75. The concert DVD that was released in May? $75. The concert DVD that's being released in October is $50. I'm telling you, these Japanese people are crazy. Actually, it's probably Johnny-sama who sets the price. Then again, I'm probably the crazy one for buying that stuff. I only bought/pre-ordered three of them though.

Ah, what a useless post. :]

I love it when Arashi goes on Utaban<3

2007-09-07T00:51:00.000-05:00

Utaban is a popular music variety show hosted by Taka-san (apparently a comedian, actor, and singer) and Nakai-san (from SMAP, Johnny's best-selling group). It is absolutely hilarious everytime Arashi is on. Definitely my favorite variety show aside from the ones Arashi host. Some video clips made by me.

So Nakai-san is the leader of SMAP. He and Ohno get into "fights" everytime they're on the show because Taka-san whispers disrespectful things to Ohno and Ohno repeats them to Nakai-san. Nakai gets mad, tries to attack Ohno, and gets held back by the other members while Ohno hides behind Taka. The first time, Nakai surprisingly holds back his anger. Second time, though, it got uglier than usual, which means it's funnier than usual. ^^ I wish Nakai had succeeded in tearing the shirt off. =X

The members, Taka-san, and Nakai-san were playing this guessing game where they try to find the items that costs more than 10,000yen or something like that. Nakai suggests that the guys have to do their "A.Ra.Shi" dance if they lose, and lo and behold, Ohno loses for them. They got called out for half-assing in the beginning. xD (PS; I love it when they do their "A.Ra.Shi" dance. It's seriously the cutest thing.)

Round two of that game where they have to find the items that cost more than 50,000yen. The guys volunteer to do "Love So Sweet" if they lose. Strangely, though, Jun loses for them. xD They sing live all the time, but this is the first time that I've ever heard them sing acapella. For another half-ass job, they sang pretty damn well. I'm so proud of them♥

Arashi is taking over the entertainment world

2007-09-05T22:15:00.000-05:00

... I wish. xD But they're getting there! Yesterday's DVD sales ranking:

Arashi Around Asia, released in May 2007. Iza, Now! Tour, released in December 2004. How's It Going? Summer Concert, released in December 2003. All in the top 20! Yeeee. Omedetou Arashi!

AnAn magazine is the equivalent of Vogue or Marie Claire.. or something. Ah, I don't know for sure and I may have been totally off, but it's a pretty reliable and widespread magazine. Here are the results of their annual ranking this year.

Cute Guys
1. Ninomiya Kazunari
3. Aiba Masaki
5. Ohno Satoshi

I Want to Be Held/Hugged By
4. Matsumoto Jun

I Want to Hold/Hug:

And, the most important of them all..
Guys We Love
5. Matsumoto Jun
18. Ninomiya Kazunari
21. Sakurai Sho

How amazing is that? Arashi members.. getting tons of recognition. What's most amazing is that Jun managed to grab #5 for "Guys We Love". He was ranked in the 20s last year. Huge jump. By the way, the same guy has been number 1 in that one for the past ten or so years. He happens to be a Johnny. Also, the top four did not change from last year. Three of those four also happen to be part of Johnny's. Johnny's (more importantly, Arashi) are slowly taking over the Idol world. xD
On a similar note, Sponichi revealed the people who made the list of "Japanese Who Make Japan Proud". Our very own Saigo, aka Nino, made the list. Congratulations Kazu-kun on making Japan proud with your acting! ^^
EDIT Nino ranked #9. OMG, so high! I'm so happy for him. :D

PS; Yes, this post was to delay reading Federalist #10 and The Declaration of Independence. ^^;;

Solely for the purpose of my Arashi fangirling. ^___^
Which means, the blog that only I will go to because no one wants to read my squeals about how awesome they are.
Okay, a real post later. Right now, I have to re-read Federalist #10. Joy.
