hey guys!

lyra here! or hanazawahyuuga, doesn't matter really. :) i'm a filipina, and a hundred percent obsessed JE fan - specifically arashi, kat-tun, T&T and V6. i still listen to K8, news, kinki kids, smap, HSJ and tokio though.

• KAT-TUN is my ichiban group, but for almost a year now, arashi has been dominating my mind left right and center and leaving little space for other groups, so i'm still a bit confused. :|
• my ichiban is kamenashi kazuya, niban is sakurai sho, sanban is takizawa hideaki. okada junichi and miyake ken round up my "JE fab five". =)) ohno satoshi is also an honarary member. ;)
• i'm also a huge fan of american series like lost and grey's anatomy (and a lot more) so feel free to add me up if you are too. i'm a certified harry potten follower as well. :)
• reading novels, literary pieces is one of my passions - i would love to meet people who are into reading novels too!
• with that being said, i'm also a miura haruma, sato takeru and oguri shun fan. :D

most of my posts about JE/American series are public, but at least 50% of this journal is friends-locked. that's because i also post a lot of real life rants, and i only want those to be read by people i can trust and have same interests with. just comment to be added. =) i don't bite, hahahaha!

i still like Sho's hair. it really suits his face, and he looks younger.

haha that's it. :D will screencap soon.

i thought... but apparently no... so was it...? but that doesn't make him...? so that was all...? ah god i am so confused.

weird thing is, i SHOULD have seen this coming. but i didn't. haha cheers to the scriptwriters for all the twists.

Sho's the guest! V6 will perform!! instead there's this Eco-Uta. see i even researched what that Eco-Uta was. :)) i guess at least i saw Domoto Tsuyoshi perform. i saw on the NHK site that this Eco-Uta thing will be until 11. does that mean that Sho's SCP will be aired next week? argh i'm so pissed!

how can they have a gokusen movie and not bring back matsujun!?

MATSUMOTO JUN IS GOKUSEN, PEOPLE!


BLASPHEMY!!

what on earth did matsujun say about britney spears? xD ohno was so funny too. :)) and standing ovation for brit!

1. Tackey's (and Ryo) drama! he plays an evil guy... so this is ala Taiyou no Kisetsu? i am so excited!

2. Nagase's drama! he plays a spy... but this is a comedy drama! so Nagase huh?

3. Pi's drama? i'm hoping for a light, romantic drama from Pi.

4. Mr. Brain! well, this is a spring drama, but i'm guessing it'll extend halfway through the summer season. :)

*prays that Okada will announce a drama sometime soon.*

okada is all kinds of hotness in SCP awhile ago. as usual i couldn't understand anything. well, i did understand "sakurai-kun kakoii" and "caster" was thrown around a couple of times.

the lady's talk guest was okada's costar in his new movie. o-to-nari? or something. more clips of okada goodness. :))

then sho's comment. again, i understand nothing. it was cute though. they said something about kisarazu cat's eye.

aaaaaand... next month. sho is the guest! yey! and v6 will perform! double yey!

oh yeah, tsubasa's voice is so sexy. i miss him. :|

so apparently, the BOF guys will be coming here to Manila? i wanna see them too even though i haven't even watched BOF. let's see them together? rose-nee? hahaha :))

and thus my entry should end. i'm gonna go to batangas tomorrow!!

is it wrong that i'm rooting for chisato and sho to get together? :D

and for me, this is maki's most lovable role to date. :)

"because waiting for you is like waiting for rain in this drought - useless... and disappointing."
                   - sam montgomery (hilary duff) to austin ames (chad michael murray)

on some levels, i can actually relate to this statement. huh.

and damn, i want to watch more chad movies! i wonder why he stopped doing them. :|

i just deleted 2 gb worth of news videos and all of my kanjani8 videos - including subbed 47 - just to make room for more arashi videos.

oh god. i am so arashi-fied.

he's even on perez!! and yahoo news!! link here:

quoted from japan zone:
Always a grandstander, Hatoyama Kunio blasted the celebrity, saying, "It makes me boiling mad. He's the lowest kind of human being. Unforgiveable." He added that he couldn't understand why such a low life had been given the job of media point man for the government's plan to switch to all digital broadcasting by 2011. He has been promptly removed from that post, and all posters and TV commercials featuring him will disappear. NHK has already cut him from one show on their educational channel and four regular Fuji TV slots - "Waratte Iitomo!," "SMAPxSMAP," "Bokura no Ongaku" and "Chonan Khan" - will undoubtedly be affected.


YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME.

lowest kind of human being!? what about the heartless murderers who kill just for the sake of pleasure? what do you call those, big government man? i know what he did was horrible, and that he should probably be in rehab, but to have his career ruined? isn't that too much? LOW LIFE? well, Sir Minister of Internal Affairs and Communications, that low life was one of the five guys who made your country well known throughout the pop music scene! he inspires people, okay? he was remorseful and he sincerely regretted his actions - to be called horrible things by a government official? yes, you have the right to reprimand him, but you had no right to slam him face down to the floor.

1 sakurai sho uchiwa for PHP700 - good condition, plastic is just a little wrinkled.
1 miyake ken uchiwa for PHP 700 - good condition, but the plastic is already a little ehhh. this one is open for more discounts i guess.

kindly comment if you would like to see pictures.

i would prefer doing meet-ups, but shipping can also be arranged.


i cant believe im selling these T_T, if i didnt need money...!

i stumbled upon a blog that was hinting heavily that tackey was supposed to be the main lead, and not sho. so i couldn't help it, i typed "the quiz show golden takizawa hideaki" in google and several links dating to as recent as march 9 have tackey named as the lead.

i know tackey has enbujou right now and is extremely busy, but i really miss him in a drama. im gonna assume that he turned down the drama because of his schedule, and i wish there's another drama opportunity next season.

or maybe this is just a rumor?

anyway it just boils down to the fact that tackey should have dramas again. :|

sho's accent is the sexiest thing ever, and i am insanely jealous of all those who got to hear him speak live in new york. :|

i loved reading all the con reports - because i'm happy for everyone who got to see sho. :) one lucky girl in particular got to talk to him and shake his hand. wow lucky!

i watched fancams in youtube, and sho was so surprised to find many people screaming for him. he even mouthed "suge!" when he realized that the fans were singing a.ra.shi.

sho doing the hand actions for the last line of a.ra.shi's chorus is the sweetest thing, he managed to touch all the fans' hearts even though he was behing a glass panel.


ah sho, i wanna see you too! :| haha!

as much as i hate to sell my magazines, it looks like i have no choice. :( because i need money for new stuff, here are the titles and prices of the magazines that i have for sale.

1) POPOLO - JAN 2008 (KAT-TUN cover)
-flipped only once or twice
-i don't have the plastic that comes with the magazine anymore, but i assure you, it's in good condition. the cover of the mag has tiny creases on the edges, but it's not a gargantuan damage or anything. it's not even noticeable. :)) i'll be happy to provide pictures if requested. :)
-i originally bought this for around 600 pesos (without shipping) so i'll be selling it at 500 pesos only. :)

2) MYOJO - FEB 2008 (ARASHI cover)
-flipped only once or twice
-i don't have the plastic that comes with the magazine anymore, but i assure you, it's in good condition. the cover of the mag has tiny creases on the upper and lower edges, but it's not a gargantuan damage or anything. it's not even noticeable. i'll be happy to provide pictures if requested. :)
-500 pesos

3) WINK UP - SEPT 2008 (IKUTA TOMA + OHNO SATOSHI cover)
-perfect condition
-no plastic, but there's no tiny creases or anything.
-i'll be selling this at 400-450 pesos, i'm not sure yet. xD
-again, if requested, pictures shall be provided.

MEET UP is very much preferred. as long as the place is reachable by MRT and LRT2, i'll be able to meet you. katipunan and marikina are also good places to meet. :)

reply to this post and i'll get back to you asap! :D

first off, i wanted to say thank you to those who had commented on my previous post. i'm doing much better now, and i'm seriously reevaluating my options. i'll let you guys know what happens next then. again, much gratitude to all of you!

even though im already late in greeting this amazing amazing person, who cares right? haha! so here goes!

( happy 27th to the most amazing man! )

and i sort of noticed how these past few months, i've been on an arashi high. :)) this is all because of you, rose-nee! daisuki_arashi hahaha :D but i do thank you! :D thanks for helping me rediscover arashi!

( arashi-high! )


so what i'm trying to say is that i seriously love arashi. :D i love every bit of their personalities, and they entertain me to no end. i'm happy that i'm with them when they celebrate their 10th anniversary. i'm glad i made it in time. :)

they weren't in FNS.
they won't be on Best Artist as well.
and now, even MSSL? :| they're the only JE group who won't be performing! ahh i'm getting a bit worried.. and they only released one single this year. hmm. i guess at least tackey will be releasing his first solo single this january. i hope it sells reeeeaaaally well.

hmf. they better be in countdown.
oh, and i hope that the rumor that V6 won't be appearing in countdown is not true at all.

on a better note, congrats to arashi! Truth/Kaze no Mukou E and One love are the top two best selling singles this year. :P Step and Go and Beautiful Days are at around top 11 and 12, i believe. :) what a way to end their ninth year as a debuted group!

and... WOW. the picture is just amazing, and kimura takuya looks great. i can see why he's one of the biggest icons in japan (if not the biggest). and he's with beyonce!
