Arashi club in my high school

[nino-sho555.livejournal.com]

Hi everybody, I don't know if this post is allowed, sorry if it not and you can delete it right away.

My principal at my high school told us if any of the students want to start any kind of club, we have to write a proposal telling them what type of club and what we will do. I want to start a Arashi club at my school, it will be all about Arashi, but I don't know what we should do during the club, or what I should share with the members of the club. It would be great to share Arashi information around my high school.

What I need help on is ideas on what the club should focus on, like I could show Arashi variety shows, concerts and dramas.

I'm in need of help, because I have no idea what to do, all I know is that I want to start a Arashi club in my school.

It would really help me out if I heard other Arashi fans ideas on what I should do. I'm the only fan in my school.

Thank you so much!

instead of arashi, you should expand it, maybe make it a japanese pop culture club or something like that, then more people will want to join.

Thank you for the idea! ^^
I will do that :D

i agree with the comment above, you should branch it out a little. i mean your idea is awesome and i think is great to introduce people to arashi :) but if you think realistically, if you are the only arashi fan as you say, it would be hard to get the club started. Maybe do something more general with japanese music/asian music but then really promote arashi in the club! good luck with it! ^^

[nino-sho555.livejournal.com]

Your right, I will add more, like jpop and kpop, and other groups while at the same time making Arashi a big part of the club ^^

Thank you~! :D

You're welcome :) Hope it works out! In high school would never have had the courage to do what you're doing XD;

UWAAAA LIVELOVESPEAK37 I WANT YOUR NINO PICTURE! =O Where did you get it? Mail it to me? *_*

[livelovespeak37.livejournal.com]

O_____O

lol But really, actually i've been looking for the original pic too and I haven't been able to find it yet T___T (you are referring to my icon right? haha)

I can tell you that I got it from the icon maker windrette. And I'm guessing that it's probably from a magazine XD But it's so cute though right? :D

[ans3000.livejournal.com]

Yes, he's SOOOO CUTE! >.<
If anyone doesn't think Nino looks like a puppy sometimes, you show them this and they'll be like: "Oh... O__O"

Depending on how often you meet you can watch the boys dramas together and then discuss each episode. You can also do monthly polls about the members and keep each other informed. You can have special showings of the concerts. And if your school has a Japanese language course with Japanese club you can pair up for actives like cultural days, events games etc.

Since you want to spread the word and get others interested you should try and push things that you think people would be interested in like the music or something. People who get into music will come to club meetings to learn more or watch dramas.

Honestly since your the only Arashi fan (you know of) at your school it might be better to go broader with a Japanese Pop culture club. That covers movies music dramas it'll be easier for you to meet people and share interest and get people into Arashi since Arashi is a big part of Japanese Pop Culture right now. And then this way you can have something of a show and tell were people can come and talk about their fandom and why they like them pimp them.

Hope that helps. ^_^

That would be fun, watching their dramas, and having everyone discuss. Thats a good idea with the special showings of their concerts, I can do that once every two months.

I'm hoping it wont be too hard to get everyone interested, but I will make sure to have Asian music with different artists that hopefully everyone will like.

I hope out of this Japanese Pop culture club, a lot of people at my school can see how great Japanese pop culture is and how amazing Arashi are.♥

Thanks so much this really helped me out also ^^

In my high school we had a sort of japanese culture based club but really it was mostly about anime and stuff it was called genshikin and we did may thngs there. although I didn't go alot to those things but they do many things like they watch anime together cosplay sometimes throw parties and talent shows where people would dance and sing and i sang an arashi song there once and they had also all watched hana yori dango together there and there were also alot of korean artists fans there. so expanding it is your best shot because if you just call it arashi, the people wont have any interest because they dont now them but anime fans jdramaa fans kpop fans etc. will all come and since you would start the club and if you become the president you can promote arashi as much as you want and you know that once people get to know our boys they cant stop and besides theyre so funny everyone would really enjoy themselves but do other various things at times as to not make them suspicious that ur trying to convert them into arashi fans xD

[nino-sho555.livejournal.com]

We have that type of club at the public library, I can see if any of them that goes to my school wants to join, since, some of the members of it might like jpop and kpop. I will try my best to expand it, I will show dramas with them in it, and they might become more interested. Also I will add more Kpop along with the jpop ^^.

I think everyone there will fall in love with Arashi just like everyone else, because they are just to funny, I will mix other things in the same time so they wont find out XD

[pikanchi-nya.livejournal.com]

Hahaha! My friend told me to make an Arashi Club in my school.. XD
*tempting..*

I think your club should be called JE Club, Asian Drama Club, Jpop Club.. Jmusic Club.. and yeaah... XD

I might do the same thing.. But.. I hope there's no creepy anime otaku to ruin it.. Nino is exempted because he's not creepy XD

[nino-sho555.livejournal.com]

I like the name "Asian Drama Club"!

I hope you do make a club also :D More JE/Arashi/Drama clubs the better ^^

No Nino's not creepy at all, he is a cute otaku XD

[http://users.livejournal.com/__uranium/]

Do experiments from A no Arashi!
Make interesting playtime objects for animals (a la Aiba-chan in TSD)
Do (harmless) Ni no Arashi pranks!
Play games from the Arashi no Shukudaikun No-Money specials!

:D

[nino-sho555.livejournal.com]

>.< I wish there were more Arashi fans in my school XD

We can discuss Arashi lyrics in their songs :D Thank you for that idea!

[nino-sho555.livejournal.com]

That sounds really fun!

Ni no Arashi pranks will be awesome to do XD

I will also make a Aiba dice game to :D

lol, I too was in this situation 2 years ago, but just like the others suggested I decided on not call in it the Arashi Club and instead named it Asian Culture Club where our goal is to expand our knowledge of other countries cultures and stuff so that we become more aware of the world around us and that the club namely focused on Asian Culture BECAUSE there there is way different than American Culture ....of course I told this to the principal and teachers so that they didn't think our club was just fooling around and screaming over Japanese Pop Idols xD...but instead when we meet there is actually little learning and stuff.......pretty much all we do is watch Arashi's variety show's and stuff....Or we watch Anime and listen to Jpop, haha xD Yet, Occasionally we do fundraisers and stuff at our local tailgate parties and set up a place for DDR and Guitar Hero and we sell food from a local Chinese or Japanese restaurant :D

[animefreak02020.livejournal.com]

*not calling

[nino-sho555.livejournal.com]

It would be interesting to add in Asian culture with Asian pop culture, also so we can learn some things to, I think my principal would like that. :)

The fundraiseres seems like a great idea to, I hope my principal will let us do that :D

Thanks so much for the ideas! I'm very happy your club seems to be great! :D

[pikanchi-nya.livejournal.com]

i think the anime club will be against the asian drama club XD
cause they hate their mangas to become live action.. Hahaha~!

I remember my japanese class.. half of it is Anime fans and half of it is JPOP/Drama fans.. and.. the drama fans took over the class with arashi/heysayjump.. yeaah XD

the anime fans hates us.. XD Even the teacher use arashi for examples HAHAHA!

good luck with this club dude.. as i'll try and do the same thing.. and i'll be against the anime club XD

[nino-sho555.livejournal.com]

hahaha XD the leader of the anime club i go to hates dramas to XD, but I think their are some jpop/kpop/jdrama fans in the club ^^

Thanks :D i'll try to make some of the anime fans at least watch one of the dramas XD

[godsgirl7.livejournal.com]

I agree with a lot of the other comments here. Like at my college, we have a Japan Culture Club, and even something as broad as that is sometimes hard to maintain, as far as members go. But it leaves the club open to all kinds of different things. You might find that exploring Japanese culture- not just pop culture- is interesting too. :)

[nino-sho555.livejournal.com]

I will add in Asian culture in the club :) it does seem interesting.
I and the other member will learn a lot of things by finding out more about Asian cultures.

Thank you :D

[linere.livejournal.com]

clap for d'idea. All the suggestion are awesome. Wish I can joint ur club after it granted.. wish wish make a wish

[nino-sho555.livejournal.com]

I agree with you, everybody that left a comment with the ideas helped me out a lot ^^ Thanks~ :D
(^_^)

[pikanchi-nya.livejournal.com]

hahaha.. in my japanese class.. most of the guys who likes anime *hentais*
ended up.. loving yatterman.. (Sho and his skillz) cause we watched that movie in my class...

also.. i remember guys hate dramas so much, they look down on me.. after watching.. Hanna Kimi... their world turned upside down.. and start liking dramas with Maki Horikita XD So.. if you ever have a club.. the 1st drama you should let them see, is Hana Kimi *THUMBS UP*

[nino-sho555.livejournal.com]

The club should watch Yatterman! I think everyone will like that movie :D

Hana Kimi is a good drama, I will show that! I think the guys will like Maki alot XD

Make it a Japanese culture club! And then, you stick All arashi photo's in the club house! You played arashi's new song over and over again! And during carnival, you bring out VS ARASHI games(Rolling coin tower and also Falling pipe or any games! But not the nipple t-shirt ones!)

And there you have it, Japanese Culture Club on the outside while the inside is ARASHI MADNESS!

[nino-sho555.livejournal.com]

I want to play Rolling coin tower and Falling Pipe! so fun XD

haha no not the nipple t-shirt ones XD!!

Arashi madness is fun! ^^

[ryosukeyuki.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I agree with most of the comments above because since you're the only Arashi fan in your school, it should be a Japanese Pop Club instead of Arashi Club in order to get more members to join. =)

Like in my school, we have a Japanese Club where activities related to Japan are done (making sushi, wearing Yukata etc.). We even watch Japanese dramas and sing Japanese songs. I think this is where you can start to promote Arashi and make them popular among the students in your school~! =D

Btw, where do you live? I really hope you'll be able to start a club. That will be sooo cool~! xD

[nino-sho555.livejournal.com]

I hope my club will be able to make, Sushi and wear Yukatas to :D

I agree with everyone about changing it to Japanese Pop Club also to, more members may join ^_^

I live in Ohio in the US :)
Thanks so much, I hope my principal will approve the club XD

[litofroggy.livejournal.com]

OMG!
I'M THE ONLY ARASHI FAN IN MY HIGH SCHOOL TOO!!

and yes, i agree with the first comment where to spread jpop culture.
i mean, i dont only LOVE arashi. they're my ICHIBAN, always. but i have other jpop people i crave over.
for example, sometimes i follow certain japanese boys for new drama releases.
some are: koike teppei, oguri shun, miura haruma, takizawa hideaki, nishikido ryo, ARASHI~, well, those are the main ones.

but the club will need a supporting teacher to lead it, no?
but you can always ask your principal for help. i should know, my principal is my advisor :D

[nino-sho555.livejournal.com]

I will include other Jpop and actors to :D I love Oguri Shun, Miura Haruma and Koike Teppei! It would be fun watching their dramas~

I will ask my principal for help, hopefully she will support the club :D

[litofroggy.livejournal.com]

you go girl!

[nino-sho555.livejournal.com]

I will do that, I will set up a different corner in the room, like kpop corner, jpop corner, anime corner, jrock corner... Thats a great idea, thank you so much :D

Yea, I'm glad everyone told me to make the club more filled with other music, idols, actors and not just Arashi. Like you said not everyone will like Arashi, not even if I tried to make my friends like Arashi, no matter how hard I try, they just don't like them, so I will add more different types of music and so on, so people can have a choice on what they want to listen to or do in the club (^_^)

Thanks so much~ ^^
