I tried translating and subbing the news clip and I know that there are quite a few errors in it since I outright guessed some of it (XD).
EDIT: Its all corrected now though maybe not 100% accurate (since there's almost no such thing when translating). Thank you pebblegosling ~

If anyone can point out my mistakes, I'll release a better version in the next few hours.
If that happens, this post will be locked/deleted.
Please be patient while I re-up the edited verion ^-^ UP! Enjoy~

In any case, I feel really proud of the boys and fanboy Arashi is sooo cute ne? ^-^
Who do you think they'll meet next??


An Arashi cap because, after all, we wanna watch Arashi even with Tom and Cameron in the house XD

( Fanboys~ )

EDIT: I've added the AnJ ver, which is shorter than the original clip but of a better quality ^-^
~HannaH~

Ahhaha so I couldn't stop making Karaoke vids of Arashi, at least everyone else gets more crack to download. XD
A stark contrast to the previous post/song, Tr0ubL3Mak3R is like Kitto Daijoubu Part 2 for me =3
I mean, what's the relation between the boys on paper boats, staring at moving pencils or twirling on a platform? Plus there's clips of them goofing off in an official PV. Like I said, Kitto Daijoubu Part 2!
Since this perf is full of crack, I made the words colorful and well, "bounce" a bit. PLUS, theres a crack-cap segment today~!

EDIT: With everyone's wonderful answers~

Today's theme is.. Family XD

Let's start with the parents, Dear Oh-papa and Sho-mama~

They're so in love that they spend their days staring into each others eyes.

( Leopard+Guns+Total CracK = Arashi-family?!!? )

Til the next dose of crack~,
~HannaH~

Kyaa~
I have to let all my feeling/opinions out on Arashi new album, Boku no Miteru Fukei so I'm gonna ramble/squeel/fangirl for the first time in a while ^^ (To be Free didn't really count cause it was more of a pic spam ahahaha =D)

( Short excerpts + translations of the solos and LoadS of flailing ahaha~ PS: Sorry pebblegosling for forgetting the cut! )

Ahahhaha I'll stop here or else I'll never stop~
Please do check the album out (if you haven't already =P)
The songs are really nice, a few I really like (other than the solos cause all of them are special, well Aiba's is too sweet but still cute ^^)  is Refrain, Gift, let me down..

Till the next flail~
~HannaH~

Have fun watching our pretty boys~!
~HannaH~

PS: Did anyone watch MS?!?!? Sho-chan's hair is TO DIE FOR and the stories were SOOO funny~!

Ahhaha I'm not very good at celebrating someone else's b'day by myself, so nothing special for dear Nino-chan m(_ _)m
But, so many wonderful people have really dome some wonderful things for him and I just wanted to list a few here ^^

First of all, I love how our love for the boys push us to attempt things that we otherwise don't normally do.
Here's props to best_in_sho  and renge_kun  who tried their best and made lovely, beautiful cakes ♥ I mean, seriously, how often do we bake cakes?? (That seriously isn't just mixing the batter and covering it with frosting but actually taking the time to decorate it)
See their pics here and here~

Our boys also inspire us to create and express ourselves in the most colourful way we know, with love ^^
Go here or here to check out rietsu_ai 's fantastic banner for Nino-chan. I think its one of a kind and a must see~ Let's just say that we can really see her love for him ^^

And of course, what b'day would be complete without some fanvids?
Since I don't have much time, I'm just gonna list the ones from tenjostyle and the comm: wemakestormmep 
I still think that her vid to Nino-chan last year is so so beautiful~ You get to see all the wonderful sides to Nino and one thing that I realised from watching the vid is all the love that he sends out to the crowds during concerts. I know, I know, I'm a little delayed, but my eyes are usually glued to Sho-chan and I've never seen so many of the wonderful smiles he gives to fans at one time! Do check it out here
Tenjo-san has also collaborated with a few others to create a breathtaking piece. Seriously, collabs are the reason why people can rule the world! (I'm sorry if that was random. It somehow makes sense to me ><) Check it out here

And that's it ^^ There are a lot more wonderful stuff so do check other places like arashi_on 's b'day masterpost here ^^
The fanmeet is happening this Sat (ABSOLUTELY can't wait!), does anyone want to do something / suggest something that all of us can do in celebration of Nino-chan's b'day? ^^

~HannaH~
Did everyone have a wonderful Neener Day? ^^

Ahhahaha, well, yes, I said that I'm not very good at regular postings~ :P Here's this week's show, albeit very, very late.. Umm, somehow it didn't record as well as it should and the quality is a bit worse than last weeks' so if you guys think it really is quite bad, I'll try and finish off a transcript =)

Show Highlights:
♥ My "sick, sick story"
♥ Artist Profile on a totally random band (clue: rainbows+crack=?????)

YES!!!! Arashi was featured in an INDONESIAN article! Its about time that their STORM reached a further press. Lets toast to more coverage of our boys yeah =)

Here's a translation of the article in the Indonesian Magazine "Asian Plus", scanned by purasuti . Here's the link to her scan, please do drop some love there =DD.

ASIAN PLUS no 349

On 10 November last year, it was confirmed that the five personalities of Arashi will appear in a special Drama by Fuji TV, "The Last Promise" [Saigo no Yakusoku]. This is their first time since 10 years ago [appearing in a drama] and this drama will be aired early next season.

The genre of the drama is 'human suspense' where all five of them, unknowingly witness the plundering of a building and face an unbelievable situation. This is the first time Satoshi Ohno (28), Sakurai Sho (27), Masaki Aiba (26), Kazunari Ninomiya (26) and Jun Matsumoto (26) appeared together since "V no Arashi" in 1999, right after their debut. The poster for this drama has been made with an adult atmosphere/feel that makes us feel their growth over these 10 years. Other than staring in a few dramas, movies, stage plays, and also receiving high recognition for their acting abilities, the variety shows that they host are also popular with audiences of all ages. Their DVD "All the BEST! Clips 1999-2009", that was released on 28 October have sold 500, 000 copies, a first in the DVD music industry.

"I wish to continue acting, keeping experiences and memories of these 10 years in my heart" said Satoshi Ohno. "I'm a bit shy...but I hope that one day the five of us can appear in a movie together" continued Jun Matsumoto.

Lol okay, its been a while now since I’ve started my LJ profile and I have not posted ANYTHING! So what am I doing here you ask? Well, here it is.

1. Collecting Arashi Material
2. Spreading Arashi Love
3. Supporting those spreading Arashi Love
4. The feeling I get when I’ve finished downloading yet another Arashi video.
5. Have I mentioned Arashi yet??

Yes, as you might have gathered, I may be a little bit crazed, added to the fact that its ARASHI, I should be in a hospital ward somewhere but hey, I haven’t been caught yet have i? so shhhhhh… =P but I swear, I’m NOT addicted. *remembers something and goes to watch her newest AnS ep*

Ah!! That was GreaT! All of them were SO cute!! Now, where was I?? Oh yeah, “Why am I here”.

Well, first, lets start with who I am:
1. Female
2. 17 years old (2009)
3. I’m a Singaporean-Malay living in Australia, this is my 2nd year here =)
4. Still schooling but all my work is dropping off a bit ‘cause of my new found LOVE
5. I can’t speak/write/read Japanese though I WISH I could. Seriously thought of asking my parents to fund my lessons but I can just IMAGINE their reaction! Oh well, for now, I’ll just learn by myself off the internet *switches to the next website and confirms the last word she just learnt: namida = tears*

So, yeah, that was a quick summary of ME though I think theres more but I seriously can’t remember any more at the moment, though I think that’s quite enough for those who only want and IDEA of who I am =)

Hm.. so the title of this post is ‘Arashi Love’ ey, so I guess this is where i talk about HOW I got hooked to Arashi =)

Well, mine is a classic story that started with the Hana Yori Dango (HYD). When Domyouji/Jun walked into the room, I SeriouslY thought “OMG, that’s the leader?!? Hanazawa/Shun looks SO much better!” (You can’t really blame me, I watched Hanakimi before HYD and Domyouji/Jun had some weird outfit and the I’m-too-good-for-you look + he was walking in slow-motion).
Then, when Domyouji started to show his more positive side after comical and sweet moments with Makino, my heart started to melt… (it was only episode 4 lol and I changed my perception of him 180°!). So, with the help of Makino’s soft smile and Otsuka Ai’s ‘Planetarium’ creating the mood I fell far and fast for Domyouji/Jun. There began my journey of finding out who Jun was and that led me to the GreatesT discovery of my life! ARASHI! From there on out, everything was a blur of Arashi, Arashi and more Arashi.

Yeah, I know, I sound like the typical teenage girl with a silly crush that will probably fade away soon enough (I can see your indulgent smiles!), but seriously, with every interview/show/performance I watch of Arashi, the more I know that they are true and I really really think that I will continue to love them for a long time to come. I know that real life will get in the way later on as my youth is taken away from me but I know that I will always find a little time (even if its just a minute to listen to Ohno-kun on Discovery)

Ah, this is getting a bit long ne (okay, okay, not a bit, but you get what I mean =P) so I’ll finish off here and next I’ll be talking about that question that every Arashi community has the right to ask, ‘What makes Arashi, Arashi?” [yes minna, expect a looong post for this one, or maybe if my mood changes into ‘mercy’ mode, I won’t write up a VERY long post but instead one that is a bit long (oops, I said ‘a bit’ a gain didn’t I? when its me, NeveR trust that phrase!)

SmileS and LoveS,
~HannaH~
