[How To] Getting to the Nagoya Johnny's Shop

[eggchan.livejournal.com]

I've been posting a lot here lately, sorry.

But I don't think anyone has ever made instructions on how to get to the Nagoya Johnny's shop, so I thought I'd make a walk-through. I'm doing this all by memory because I didn't actually take pictures of the trip to the store while I was living there so I am going with what pictures I do have, and lovely Google street view.


Believe it or not that pink looking thing is the sign to the store and it says "Johnny's" with stars all over it lol.

[denise-dinc.livejournal.com]

I do not provide scans, the thumbnail is merely for reference purposes.
Okay, now I’m thinking of translating the whole set…?

 
Active Summer!

This summer is “active summer!” isn’t it?
There’s concert, and there’s drama.

Jun
Matsumoto

 
Matsumoto Jun’s daily life.

I wake up around 7~8 in the morning, I go for filming, come back at night, prepare for work, go for a bath, sleep… it kinda goes in this kind of pattern. Basically I eat breakfast on the set most of the times. The things I eat on the set, besides things like sandwich or bread, there are more choices of onigiri and bentou.

VSA Park Odaiba

[kyoticle.livejournal.com]

Hey :)
This weekend I'll go to japan with 2 friends, and we (or more like ME xD) want to visit the VSA Arashi Park <3
So I still have some questions here :)

My coolnat466 already gave me a brief summary of this page : http://www.fujitv.co.jp/uso2010/pop_arashi.html <3

So I basiclly know that I can't take photos, that I have to get the tickets at 9am / 8am at FUJI TV ~

And so on ~

But there are still a few questions :D
I hope someone can give me more details like:

~ I can get into the Park without a ticket? That means I can see everything, just can't play Rolling Coin Tower right, then I don't need to get up early to get a ticket there?
~ When they say 8am, I HAVE TO arrive there by that time to buy a ticket?
~ Is the ticket number per day limited ?
~ Rolling Coin Tower is a game for 4 >o< So what if we are only 3 D: Can't we play then, or do they add someone randomly?
~ The place where they show goodies and photos, are they directly together with the park, or somewhere else (like at fuji TV station?)

Well these are the question I can think of :)
I'll be grateful for any other informations *O*

ORISTA'S BLOG (2010.08.05)

[iuuppanhut.livejournal.com]

 Recently, I find reading staff's blog is fun. They gave me inside view of Arashi's activities and their impressions about them (even though there are promotion and bias or not).

I think Japanese are quite timid. Just by a small helping action, they consider someone is kind or not.


Incident happened during interview!
I witness Matsumoto-kun’s kindness!!

Buying Arashi Albums in Thailand

[erisu-tan.livejournal.com]

Hi everyone! I'm a filipino arashi fan living in Thailand and I would like to ask you guys where I could buy arashi albums/cds here in Thailand. So do you other thai fans out there know any shops that sell arashi albums?? Actually, the album i am looking for specifically is the latest one, "Boku no Miteiru Fukei", but I'm not even sure if thats being sold in thailand right now.

And if there are no shops here in thailand, then do you guys know any good website to buy Boku no Miteiru Fukei or other arashi albums?? I've heard of HMV(?), yesasia, CDjapan and stuff but I would like to know which is the best one. And also, I'm kinda new to the fandom so can you recommend the best albums/cds?

Thanks in advance!! ~
