ok, I know... I'm not exactly following Arashi's life recently. I letting them breath, you know ;) Kidding, just didn't have head for that. But I'm reading through my friends' posts and I see new things more or less. Like 2 new PVs... and honestly... I like Believe. It's a good song, I love the dance parts (as music "dance", not the action of dancing, which is well normal for Arashi). Also I like the jazzy music background, now it will sound serious, but it reminds of Moloko melodies XD

Ohno's solo... is... great. As a fan of Ohno I feel proud he made solo single and PV, 100% JE-feel-free. They even gave him normal back-dancers, they don't look like Johnny's people at all. There are even WOMEN!!! hehe it sounds weird but this is pretty new feel. And he looks just so cute, it's feels even like a PV for kids, but not like Uta no Oniisan. And I can tell he choreographed the dance by himself. Those movements are so him, especially the leg going to sides :D mecha mecha kawaii!!!

And then also, something purely hilarious - Arashi beat box :D heheheh, all that I can say about it. Now I'm looking forward to get my AAA2008 DVD, but hopefully they with charge my card in April.

Because yes people... I will be broke in March. I couldn't resist taking Japanese and Research Methodology courses. And that costs. Textbooks cost. I just hope I will not be tempted by anything, because as for food/drinks even snacks what's left after all the bills should be enough... but not for any extra shopping.  Geh~~ life. 

And... strange... something smells. But I can't find out what. Sometimes it seems strong and sometimes I can't smell it at all which makes me feel like I'm crazy! Grrrrrrr!!!!

Also... I finished reading Breaking Dawn, the last piece of Twilight saga. Although it seems like there could be a continuation, the writer left open doors for that. Good. Well there is still 13 chapters of Midnight Sun, but I hate the idea of reading something unfinished... bloody hackers.

And does anyone know a software for recording videos with the webcam? The software from my webcam somehow doesn't record voice and I couldn't find any other software. Help please :D

Ok, That's all.

One of the reasons why I love Taiwan is... Arashi!

I have one channel that focus on Japanese programs... and now they're showing Bambino! They also started D no Arashi!!!!! 2 episodes a time, so it's 1 hour of DnA each weekend! Also on Taiwanese MTV they play Beautiful Days single promo :D

Also they play the old J-drama Beautiful Life - it was a first drama I've watched and the first I loved (and I still do love it!!!!)

How not to love Taiwan?

Muka

ps. tomorrow I'm going for scooter license test - wish me luck >.<

Ok, as I said - photos!

( Say  )Ok, I will also put some of more private photos:D not arashi oriented :P
\

( Staff :D )Ok, that's all:D 

Muka

Ok...

I don't really feel like doing a concert report... since I don't remember all the songs and so on... Once I step into arena I just forget about the world and enjoy it.

Ok... a lot of good stuff happened to me... so if you think you will feel bad after reading it - just don't...
( heaven... )
Ok...  I have some photos! But I will upload them later, since I need to resize them and so on. And I also have a lot of reading to do about Internet Operations... and it seems cosmic (at least2 first pages of it  >.<)

Muka

Hello,

Ah... freedom:D Since today I live alone... and I enjoy it.

Also I will be aunt in April. My middle sis is pregnant:D I can't wait my scholarship to arrive so I can shop in baby shops XDDDDDDD

And.... tomorrow I go to Taipei, yay! I meet my old friends at last! Fun fun fun! And then two days of Arashing:D I so look out to that... I'm just worried I will spend more money that I should =_=;;; this scholarship thing gives me a really hard time... I plan to buy only Ohno's uchiwa, a t-shirt  (rain coat is just toooooooooooooo expensive!) and eco-bag. It's already too much, because the t-shirt is  also pretty expensive. Ehh...

And today I've been to Costco with my classmates:D fun! I bought pack of muffins (now I'm freezing them, since I can eat 12 muffins till tomorrow),  pack of Pringle's (couldn't resist) and 2 pijama pants (cute!).

Tonight we also had a "welcome party" for international students, suprisingly fun too. There was dancing and singing... and free food of course:D And I got a doggy balloon! I have a pet now:DDDDD speaking of pets - it's seems I will get a parrot for few days next week. I'm pretty excited about that! 

You think now "oh she's having fun" - I am... but I'm worried since I didn't started writing the paper yet, and it's due 21st Oct @_@ and many other projects to do on the way -_-;;;; next week I will be squeeling all the time...

But for now, I forget about this and get excited for the concerts!

Muka

not the prettiest one, but I am a fan and Ohno has my big big support! Th thing is really becoming less funny and more scary...:/

I hope those stupid antis will just shut up at last! I would tell you to go to hell but I'm a Christian so I can't :/

Muka

Ohno... you made it! An almost sex-, and almost drug-scandal. But still nor it is sex (just touching girls butts, all full dressed) nor marijuana is a real drug (though, you better don't smoke too much - it kills brain cells).

Actually it all makes me laugh, he looks ridiculous in those photos.... like a huge DUMBASS XDDDDDD you should know better Ohno - don't play with girls who have cameras, even in their mobile phones!

One good thing that I learned from the "scandal" - so he certainly is not gay :P Sorry Nino :P

I just hope fans and JE will be able to laugh too and forget the whole matter:P He is a BIG boy, though it's nothing to be proud of, he has the right to make such mistakes. I hope there won't be any serious consequences - just a lesson that he would bitterly learn - to control himself better!

Muka :D

ps. really, this world has much much bigger real life dramas... this is just a joke compared to real life problems.

I have just read the news. Arashi is coming to TAIPEI in November. This means, I will be there at that time! I've already talked with my "arashi" friend from Taiwan, and we were spazzing over it. How it is that at the time I'm there Arashi is coming? It's like fate! Thank you God! Because I was getting worried I won't have enough money to go to Japan to see them live!
Of course things can go wrong, but still it's is way much more possible that I will be there! Just need someone to help me buy the ticket like last time.

Kyaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

Generally, I was also allowed to come on 9th September to Taiwan, so I can attend my older sis' wedding :)

Muka

so I've got your present Kane~~ And I must admit I haven't expected THAT! It is a great cushion cover! it is not only the Ohno's face but all the idea and design... it's so cool! And it happened that I have a cushion fitted perfectly for that!
hahah so now I will be pimping it here:D

I should credit a person who made the picture of Ohno... but I don't remember the girl's nickname m(_ _)m Sorry! It was so long ago! But so it wasn't drawn by me~

Photos of my custom made (by Magda) cushion :D


and a different story... my parents... they are... they are sometimes kind of irritating... I know the money they earn it all them, that they're adults (well mum is retired and dad almost retired... so they're rather seniors now)... but when  it come to money they can be  so  irresponsible. It is so easy to sell them anything... and so they bought another gadget. It is cool, I admit, and I'm even surprised how modern... but it is damn expensive and not really necessary!  But it feels like 21st century...
So we've got a robot! Cleaning robot... here it is:


Muka

ok, today I had aaaaaa lot of time in my work so I spent most of it on making more avatars...

Muka

Hah, on a recent Arashi WAVE I've made some Arashi icons/avatars, since I think mine are already for too long on LJ :D So I was screen shooting  my DVD (so far only 1st), which wasn't so easy  - not easy to catch  something not blured (they move way to much), and I couldn't rip it to avi to make some gifs either:./ (anyone please tell me how to rip this DVD into avi please, and mp3 too :P). Then I spent around 3 hours at my work doing all that:D and it's not finished!


Uffff it is all for now... maybe tomorrow I will do some more...
For rules... if anyone wants to use those, feel free, just DON'T say it was made by YOU! any special credits are not required.

Muka

maaah, I've got my "Arashi Summer Tour 2007 - Last Time" DVD! Actually recently I haven't any time for Arashi, I hardly download anything, I have no time for any fan moments. But I do order what I can (and I can't order the album - no money after buying the DVD =_=;;;; you JE... as a fan I'm happy to have it all released, but as a student - I'm broke!). So my feelings were a little like... hmm... worried? Actually I was worried if I would still like it, especially that honestly speaking, TIME wasn't my favourite album :|

Demo, demo (But, but)...  I shouldn't have worried at all! I need to have more trust in Arashi! The DVD is GREAT! 嵐最高！Ah, how I wish I could go to their live again... those feeling are so strong even when I'm watching it on a laptop in my headphones... I wish my room mate wasn't here, so I could sing, do the movements and all (squeel from being high high:D).

My review is not supposed to be detailed, because it's late and I need to sleep... but I just needed to share how I love the DVD, and that I love Arashi - still! Stormy Boys, wait for me! I will get back to Asia and somehow I will go see you again! Hopefully XD

so, everyone interested in Arashi - go and buy it (or download it)... those who aren't fans... I wish you could watch it, just to see what I love and maybe you would at least try to understand why I do love them. Because it's really not "just" another boys band. I liked what Nino said in this concert, something about that they're maybe not really good at singing, and doing other things, but they're good at feelings and they're good at making their fans happy. And that is why we love them - they make us happy :3

Good Night,

Muka

ps. Hi Sam, I guess you're reading it as a first person:D Don't go to sleep to late!

OMG... I'm half-dead... I haven't check my LJ's friend page in months! I have no idea how Arashi is doing =_= I must admit that I skipped Ohno's birthday!
But from good news... Christmas coming, I finished my thesis and gave it for first mistake check, hopefully my professor won't cross out half of it _-_ and there is coming more tests in December! And I'm broke, hehe:D

Today was strange... from Arashi point of view. I gave my pen drive to a friend on a lecture to show him and my other friend something. It happened that there was a folder full of Arashi pictures there XDDD he opened it and started watching... he and my friend were surprised and laughing, because well... we all know how European standards of pop stars and magazine's photos are different. But they weren't all that bad in laughing and asked many questions.... it ended with my friend putting Sho's photo (pink jumper and red background) as his wallpaper! OMG... it is so strange:D I told him people will say he's gay but what the hell:D it is funny:P And I don't care much what they think about my love to Arashi:DDDDDD they asked me to show them some music so I played my ringtone (we can make it:P) :D I feel kind of proud.

How are you people? (those who still have time to read their LJ's friend pages)

Muka

Sandy asked for it, so here it goes:D I didn't make it all nice and clean in PS, just made it smaller and made contrast bigger (since the photo I took was so-so). I'm sorry if it's not enough:P


Isn't it nice? and the "A.RA.SHI" looks so cool!


Actually I got sick, very sudden. Last night I woke up and started throwing up, and this is how I spent 3 hours last night, and then couldn't sleep well because of stomach ache... I was sure it's food poisonin, but then in the morning it turned out my sister and her husband also were sick at night. And I got fever and muscle pain so we are suspecting "stomach flu" . Geh, anyways I feel like shit, and still need to study and writ my thesis (ok, for the thesis - I wrote 3 pages and I just can't do more today).
Hope you all are fine folks!

Muka

I was bored, and I really need new avatars.... so here they go...







I like this scene... Aiba's sexy belly, Nino loking at him, and Sho doing baka-boxing in the back:D
OMSK <3 I know that quality sux, but I still like it:D

secret language? cute:) saying: "-I love you", "-I love you too" :3


I also did some avs with Mao-chan from First Kiss drama:D I like it a lot and I like her a lot:D
her face look wide XDDD well still it's her:D

Mao-chan :D I hope the hand looks natural since I pasted it from different  pic =_=

Mao-chan's medicine from the First Kiss drama, I like it:D and her nails:P

that's all, because my eyes were hurting after doing those =_=

Mukashi

ps. do you really want to use it? if yes then take it and just put a credit for me somewhere there:D  but I guess no need:P

Haven't finished watching yet... but you go too!!! EDIT:

Muka

I've just listened to the new Arashi album - TIME (without two songs who I couldn't unzip for reason =_=, I will wait for my copy to arrive). And... I'm not satisfied. It's average. There is not many special songs (except for Love so Sweet and We can make it true, that I loved before already). The song that caught my attention more is "Carry on" , probably because I always loved rock music A LOT, and it's not so pop like usual JE songs~ same with "Cry for you" rock with a dance beat, and I can bet those two songs are written by the Swedish guys XD

but... there is a song I fell in love. And not only because it's Ohno's solo. The song itself is good!!! And Ohno's voice is a bit different again (every album I feel his voice is different a bit). I've listened to it for 30 min on and on and I'm not bored. It's so MY song! This song saves the album for me, and make it worth the money and all! I can't wait to see his solo dance to it... aaaaaaaaah... it can be something as good as "Top Secret"!!!
So let's pray for DVD from this years summer tour!!! Please please please!!!!

btw. I came back from TOkyo last night... and I think Ohno's solo con cap is my new treasue:D also I bought Nippon Terebi ehm... something... the one I saw in Arashi no SHukudai-kun... I will write about my trip some other day~

Muka

ok... I know it's a bit childish, but... I will point out myself on the AAA Taipei's con DVD. Why? I dunno. It makes me happy and excited when I think I'm right there, and my memory was preserved on a DVD. What's more, I feel mecha mecha hyper when I'm on a "photo" with Ochan.
It's not to show off or anything, it is just important for me.

Ok, now the happy thing:D

For a good start... a kiss from Jun... a French Kiss ;p (if you're eating right now then... dunno scroll down quickly without looking)


Muka

"we can make it "... I so loooooove this song and PV... so I couldn't in a free moment do some icons... since it seems that's the trend now ;p
Here it comes:

no it's a plane, no... it's a SUPERMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN....

actually I like this cap because Jun's position is just hilarious XDDDD

I planned do a "Poles-would-only-get-the-joke" one ("rece ktore lecza")... but by mistake with PS I came up with this idea :)

  ok... technicaly I couldn't make it as I wanted.. but you get my idea, ne?

ok, don't hate me... but his neck is soo short that ... it just fits to call him that...

credits for the caps mayleann

Finally... I'm not saying they're great, but they're mine:D  I have some ideas for gifs but I'm a bit too busy to  fight with that ^^"

Muka

hmmm... I admit, I feel bored when I shouldn't... I should be busy... I have homeworks, a presentation and research to do this week, and well... I just chose the paper to write the presentation about...  but I hate Mondays, and yesterday it was a Monday... and since Tuesdays I have free I used it to rest. And to send packages... I had to sent 4, I  had sent  3, since I'm waiting for one more box.  Spent  1200 NT on stamps only...  *sic!*

So I finished watching "Dear Father", and I must say I love the drama... it's calm and warming, but sad. It made me cry surprisingly a lot! I also watched Shukudai-kun and MMA... I read a book, I did my Bible study, went through science journals' database. And still I allowed myself to feel bored. Oh sweet boredom XD
So I even made wallpaper... I felt like it's time for a change on my desktop. So I thought I will share, though it's really home-made, and a bit like collage... gives me the feeling of noise. But of course it's Arashi wallie:)

now... sorry... BIG picture... since I have 1280x768 resolution ^^'


usually I liked very calm and simple wallies...but recently I like more chaotic and complex things ^^"

ah... I don't mind the rain generally, but I wanted to play volleyball and then go jogging... booooooo v_v
