really amateur, first translation (I have so much respect for you translators out there!)
And why did I choose a really hard song???  I couldn't keep straight who was doing what x=x. Of course this is neen's song after all (the little brat ♥). But I adore this song, it makes me melt everytime I hear it. It's so precious. (it was the song that made Nino my  ichiban at first)!

This is just for fun, I can't take ENTIRE credit for the translations . Because I did get some assitance from choco_disco . But I really worked hard on this one

every time you sulk,
you hide the things that are most important to me
that place is always the same
so today, i'll go there first and wait

the seasons bring the evening sun

the shadows find and stretch out over me

you gaze at me with a surprised face
suddenly you pout and look away
when I say "I'm sorry "
you say "come over here"
See over there
look look
our shadows are overlapping...

our umbrellas collide causing me to not walk straight
 you look at me while smiling*


I'll show you that I can do the same thing
I pout in a similar way

Your gentle smile
this time ,  this place
they are so important to me
that I could begin to cry

You're pouting on purpose
and without saying sorry you kissed me gently

from now on
it's fine to say selfish things
but say them only to me

You say its tiring **
you're not being honest
why aren't you able to say it?
I love you
it's just these three words
I want to hear it every once in a while
today is the day you and I combined our last names
the day our love bloomed

la... la... la...

The rainbow is beautiful
no you are more beautiful
You began to look embarrassed
thank you, thank you

*(laughing) ?
**I thought bothersome might work aswell...
its so hard trying to bring over the meaning correctly and also make it sound good (poetic, I mean this is a song o.o)

*I based this off of romaji and kanji from arashilyrics.com

so I've been messing with photoshop (since I just got it) super exciting I know!

so here are some simple wallpapers and icons

They are unfortunately in one size xD. Because sizing is hard haha.

comments are love and credit is appreciated :D

lol this is like the first time i've ever watched a live tv show xD.
I had to, it's aiba afterall (I can't believe that I Was home by chance to see it though lol)

highlight of the show
( Aiba's amazing )</div>

This is really going to be long!(actually 11 pages long in Word)

( REPORT )

holy fuiadloiiiidvbgv

I wan tickets on Ningin! TO SEE YATTERMAN! I'm on the like VIP, I have a "guaranteed" ticket!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ME SIDEWALKREBEL!!!!

I was like screaming and jumping earlier, I just can't believe it! I've never won anything like this before ;_________;

there will be a group photo for ningin before the movie aswell!

SO I'm leaving in a couple hours!

As soon as I get home on Saturday there will be a FULL repo

so there were many updates today regarding Sho's appearance at NYCC! GOOD NEWS

( NEWS NEWS NEWS UNDER THE CUT )

woo! I finished my uchiwas!
I've seriously been working on these forever.

traced the Arashi symbol from the Comp screen, traced again with pencil, then with marker... then painted them... and then repeat the same steps again for the 2nd one 0.0!

I'm really happy with them though!

okay so, my first Uchiwa!

( under the cut~~~ )
lol the glue is still drying so it looks a little funny XD.  But I was really excited so I had to take pictures~

I"m getting so nervous!

But I just wanted to post an entry regarding this whole event.

As we know there is only a limited number of tickets available at the nikkatsu booth, and a possibility that some of us might not get them (including myself)

so I think as Arashi5Rabu @ vox brought out we need to stick together as a collective Arashi fan base and not turn this thing into a rat race. Be poor losers if in fact we can't get in . Granted that'll be tough. We're all there wanting to see Sho and see "Yatterman". ALL of us, we have the same feelings as each other ne.

so with that in mind, lets turn this into an awesome fan gathering! We'll be breathing the same as as Sho, in the SAME building!

Let's all hope we can get in and that Sho will be doing the panel and signing!

(1st uchi wa done! *taking pics later*)
and I'm working on my second one.
Thanks to xoarashi88ox  @ vox for helping me out with the translation. I'm making it say "Happy 10th anniversary"!

so many things to do before thursday~
3 days till I leave o.o!

and so far this aweful storm that was supposed to dump like 3 feet of snow, doesn't look like it's going to happen afterall! *is optimistic*

Ny, Ny
Partly cloudy with a high of 37~

It's going to be much colder here, but thankfully the weather will be pretty good!

So more info!
according to http://subwaycinemanews.com/
"FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 6 @ 4pm - Takashi Miike will present a special panel on YATTERMAN and the mysteries of universe at the IGN Theater in the Jacob Javits Convention Center during ComiCon. Star Sho Sakurai will most likely make an appearance at the panel, but we’re just not sure. They will answer questions, show an exclusive clip from the movie and blow your minds. Free for all ComicCon attendees."

and

"Unfortunately, the producers have asked that we cancel the Saturday night screening at the IGN theate"

So this is good news! And according to emails to various people, Sho is confirmed, he WILL be in the building of Comic Con and its STILL a possibility that he'll be at BOTH the panel and signing.
Though still not confirmed.
This is Johnny's though~ But I'm sure the people over at NYCC are working VERY hard to get Sho-kun at all events!

Lets keep our hopes up!

Also there are quite a number of people over at Aibakaland going, I"m super super excited to meet everyone and total fangirl!

As of yet I'm still planning on being outside of the Con at 8am.

And I'm making banners and things today!
One is going to be for Arashi/Sho and the other (which is Red) will be for Yatterman I think !

Forcast for February 5 in NY

OH lol Uta no Onii ep 2 was hilarious, homg I love it!

rofl XD. Captain is so awesome!
( Bread Shop ♥ )

So more info from www.mediumatlarge.net/2009/01/takashi-miike-sho-sakurai-and-yatterman.html

At first when this all happened I was really sad.
But now, I'm still SUPER excited!
I can't wait, seriously.
It's going to be so much fun , an Arashi east coast gathering? OH YES.
It'll be great to dork out and fangirl with everyone.
PLUS there's still a possibility that everything is still going to happen.

omg.
I can't wait!
13 days! (er.. almost XD)

now http://www.mediumatlarge.net/

says something a little different ;-;

"Takashi Miike will be at NYCC to speak about Yatterman at 4 PM on Friday"

but it said yesterday

"Takashi Miike and Sho Sakurai will be at NYCC to speak about Yatterman at 4 PM "

the same with the autographs it just says Takashi Miike...

"Takashi Miike will also be signing autographs at the Nikkatsu Booth "

yesterday
 
"Both Miike and Sakurai will also be signing autographs at the Nikkatsu Booth "

lets hope for the best ;-;. They could just be trying to make it look like Sho won't being doing that, but who knows what Johnny's has said

again, he's still talked about there as being the special guest and will appear. but ;-;. I guess I won't jump to any conclusions o.o
He's still as a special guest on the NYCC page and in the article is still mentioned as being there.

but I'm kind of sad, gotta say.

again, let's hope for the best~

(as a side note, the theater that will have the world premier of Yatterman
www.dga.org/thedga/dga_ny.php3)
holds  436 people (there will be press)
so lets just stick together girls :D
