I think this has been the crappiest semester yet. Just so much stress all over the place. It’s always fun when one of my teachers turns a 7 page paper into a 10 page one.

I have 2 papers and 5 exams coming up in a couple weeks time… Oh God this was a crazy semester. All I want is to be able to catch up on Janiben and Super Chample episodes Not to mention I’ll have enough time to stalk dancers’ blogs and start researching events.

I’ve been watching some more recent episodes of Janiben. It’s so awesome, I love Murakami, he’s just so funny. The only thing that bugs me about watching Kanjani8 (tv shows, lives, etc) is that they ALMOST always end up wearing the most horrible clothes. Yasuda and Subaru… *empty stare*

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I just got an email today. I’ve been waiting for it for months now. Of course the process isn’t going to be complete until I’m actually there but now I know

I was going to wait until I got my actual cirtificate but since I got the email it’s the same thing.

“Kansai Gaidai 2009 Spring Acceptance”

Unless I cancel it myself I guess I’ll be stuck in Osaka for a semester Lucky for me Osaka pwns.

Yep, that’s what’s up. Uh oh yeah I went karaoke-ing again last night. I’m addicted I tell you. I’m getting better/faster at reading hangul. Reading Japanese is a lot easier, for now, not many problems there… except for the occasional crazy kanji I’d never seen before.

After karaoke a few of us went to eat at Steak ‘n Shake. Granted I got the single hamburger thing and fries… I still had a coke… and a chocolate sundae. I hate myself.

MUST redo the Crows Zero fanlisting layout. It’s so dark and ugly and change is long overdue.

I’m kind of tired right now but I can’t go to sleep. My dorm is too bright arg.
So, yeah, how about them Dir en grey concerts.

I’m going to make this as short as I can and that means it won’t be short at all.
I woke up at 5am. Got my hair done and got ready then I went to pick Leila up. I ended up getting lost like 3 minutes away from her house XD Of course I eventually got there and picked her up yay We reached club firestone at around 9. I met Jamie there! XD Awesomesauce. I’ve known her for like, what is it, 5 or so years now.

She was one of the concert winners and there were/are 3 winners at each location and each one gets to bring a guest. I got to see more friends in line and familiar faces. I’m not even going to get into people who were dressed freaking gothic or loli… embarrassment total.

Anyway the tour bus was parked like right next to the venue. It’s like downtown so they had nowhere to hide. People were all over there waiting for them to come out. LOL everyone kept cracking jokes about what looked like a lotion bottle in the window of the bus.

Uh ok sooo yeah chaos breaks loose when the stupid people who work there made everyone get in a totally different line. So, as usual, people who were in the front since early lost their spaces to random people who came later. Anyway we met another contest winner and her friend and stayed in line. They called us and we got in and waited for ‘Rick’ lol. He took us upstairs and there they were.

Me entering - my right to left
Die, Shinya, Toshiya, Kaoru.

Apparently Kyo was/is sick… and I don’t know if he would have even been there anyway?

So all four of us (contest winners) didn’t know what to do or say lol. Diru were just looking and smiling. So one of the girls gives me her camera and I uhh just took pics of her and the band and I felt kind of bad doing so. You could probably tell by my expression. I know like we got to be the VIP ticket people but I still don’t think Dir en grey really likes uh getting their pics taken with fans for various reasons.

I got them all to sign Leila’s TMOAB cd cover… me being the idiot I am totally didn’t bring anything for them to sign so I had them sign my hoodie lol. It was just a random hoodie too, not a diru one. So well the good thing about that is that I didn’t have to beg them for any hugs and they all touched my arm to sign it WOOHOO

Attitude/look wise. They all look so great up close
They all looked very stress free (only thing I could think of). Die was all smiles and was just awesome. Shinya was exactly how I expected him to be like, no questions asked there XD. Toshiya is wonderful and seems very, I donno what to say, understanding of the situation. Kaoru was very nice and all smiles too.

The thing I’ll never forget was… as I was going towards Kaoru… I kind of noticed out of the corner of my eye… Toshiya XD OMG Most hilarious moment ever. For what seems like forever his hand was dangling in the air in the perfect hand shaking position. I was going kind of like blank and kept staring then I was like “OMG SORRY!” and shook his hand XD I almost left him hanging All I could say was THANK YOU SOOO MUCH and he shook his head and said “you’re welcome”. His signature took forever lol it’s awesome.

Kaoru was more like a blur #_# Oh my God the more I think of it the more ‘blurry’ the whole thing gets. LOL I remember staring at Die’s tattoo on his hand

Before we knew it it was over *yeeeells* Me and Jamie were all over the place XD

OK so now that the meat is out of the way I’ll try to be more concise again. After that there was already a crowd at the rail and all that stuff. I went to use the ATM because merch only took cash. The retarded ATM wasn’t working. Jamie ended up buying me a shirt ;_; I was going to buy a hoodie and all that stuff but oh well I’ll get it later online or something.

I MUST FIRST SAY THAT KYO WAS GETTING HIS GROOVE ON THROUGH THE ENTIRE CONCERT. He was up there just dancing and dancing well might I add XD Jamie turned around and she was like “OMG why is he crip walking?!”

We watched diru play from upstairs. Got to see everyone except for Shinya because he was as far back as possible I remember some of the songs but I’m not going to attempt to lay out the set list. They opened with SA BIR! yay! and umm I guess Kyo did ASOM unplugged at one point. That was crazy, he didn’t seem ’sick’ at all. They did some songs from VULGAR (that’s about as far back as it went as far as I can remember) and they did songs from TMOAB and wtd. and of course UROBOROS. My friends said they played audience KILLER LOOP I must have selective amnesia because I can’t for the life of me remember them playing that song. I remember they did play THE IIID EMPIRE as the last song

They were soooo awesome ;_; So heavy, so so heavy and loud and on point The ending of Ryoujoku no ame wawfhaiweuw sooo good. They played a lot of songs and I can fangirl about all of them but yeah.

I’ll just leave it at that!

Ok this totally has nothing to do with the concert thing. I HAVE to blog about it. For some reason I had a dream about Tora from A9 I knew it was Tora and no one else. I was like in a house on the top of a sandy hill… I open the door and Tora is walking 2 dogs to some place next door which I assumed to be a pet daycare… He comes back out and as he passes I say “TORA!” and he turns and says “Hey Jesse” … In the dream I took Jesse to be what they call all foreign fans if they don’t know their names… So he starts heading down the hill and all of sudden he was on a bicycle and I ran down after him.

Oh and one last thing. I went to karaoke/noraebang last night in Orlando. Got lost for sooooooooo long because directions were just all over the place. The place was upstairs and behind an Allstate building XD. I actually sang a few songs. I did Pray (TH6), STORY (AI), and Roman hikou (KKclub). I didn’t want to sing any diru songs XD ahhh and oh yeah I sang Nan arayo (Seo Taiji) with Leila. OMG I can’t read hangul that fast… I was just lost with all the rapping parts XD aka the whole song.

Tammy is coming over today yay.

At this rate I’m never going to get any school work done
