Morning Days 5 「Featuring Risa, Eri & Lin Lin」

THIS IS WHAT I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR!!!

Risa and Eri on the same tour is pretty darn awesome although I won’t deny that at the moment that I’d rather she was paired up with Sayumi instead. I suppose Eri is a worthy runner up and having Lin Lin there means crack to the max!!! Also, the fact that Lin Lin speaks incredibly good English could work to my advantage as well. How? Because I’m very much hoping to attend this tour with both zorrander and – fingers crossed – gordo from Hello! Online. The only thing stopping me at the moment is the fact that I’m unsure if I can get the time off of work (<_<)

I visited Nikko on a guided tour in 2006 and it was such an amazing place I’m really glad that Risa’s Morning Days is going to be held there. Tokugawa Ieyasu’s Mausoleum and Shinto Shrine – Nikko Tosho-gu is really beautiful place and as such is well worth another visit. The famous Kegon Falls is also in Nikko so I will be sure to hit that up again. Hopefully I won’t see any suicidal teenagers whilst I’m there (why do I have interest in the places where people take their lives?). If I do go over I will probably stay for 2 weeks and visit many other places in Japan with Yokohama being a dead cert. I also want to travel to Nagoya again as I really liked the castle there when also visited it in 2006. I just need to find things to do in and around Nagoya.

The Morning Musume Pika Pika Spring Tours final two dates are the 4th and 5th of May so I have no doubt I’ll be attending both of them. More than likely both the afternoon and evening concerts on both days. I just wonder if I can get a front row seat for the final?! Applications and payment for this tour have to be made by the 31st March so if I could ask all my loyal readers to keep their fingers crossed for me that’ll be most appreciated. I could do with all the luck I can get right now what with needing the time off of work and actually winning a place on this tour…

COME ON!

GETS! 「12.02.2010」

I wasn’t going to post my latest gets until I’d received all the parcels I was waiting on but something completely unexpected was delivered today so I had to get this done. I use a certain 3rd party company for my Hello! Project FC membership and unfortunately their website isn’t very informative as it just shows links and prices for items but no names. Couple that with the fact that UFA takes months to send items out means that when you click on a link to remember what you’ve ordered they usually end up being dead, thus I have no recollection and no way of finding out what the 9 orders I had placed through them were. Last week I got a number of e-mails saying that a few of my Hello! Project orders had arrived at the warehouse so I put them together in to one package which ended up weighing 5.2kg and costing an absolute fortune to deliver. I had no idea what the items were… (<_<) Said parcel arrived today (luckily not stopped by customs) and it was fucking HUGE!!! Upon opening it I came to a second box inside which said グラス (GLASS) on the sticker and I realised it could only mean one thing…! I cut the selotape open carefully and then stood there which this huge, cheesy grin on my face for ages taking in what I had before me. Wanna know what it was? Well you’ll find out at the end of this posy. Here’s all my recent GETS! though and I will just say that none of these were purchased since starting my abstinence!

BTW – Sorry for crappy photos. I decided to start doing this when it was getting dark @_@

Risa makes some fucking cute faces in both the Close Up and Make Up versions of Onna ga Medatte Naze Ikenai.

I had ☆’s in my eyes everytime she came on screen and was squeeing with delight when she did something cute <3 This might not be an amazing song and I might dislike the dance but boy am I happy with everything else (^_^)

Abstinence...

…was never a word in my vocabulary. It is now! <_<

I’ve realised that over the past few months I’ve been spending WAY too much money on Morning Musume / Niigaki Risa items and have made the tough decision that I have to cut back. Especially as I plan to get my own place very shortly and wish to return to Japan for two weeks in October. Although I want to see some immediate effects which cutting back won’t produce so I have told myself that I am NOT allowed to purchase any items in February (possibly March too) and then I have to cut back! It’s like a sponsored fast, without the sponsorship… Can I do it? I hope so.

This doesn’t mean there won’t be any new GETS! posts for a while because I do have a butt load of stuff that I’ve paid for but am currently waiting on. Stuff like my personalised Koharu graduation panel (which I still don’t know if I’ve won yet), New Year BLT book, various items from the H!P store / FC store (can’t remember what I bought) and all editions of Onna ga Medatte Naze Ikenai. Once the majority of these items arrive I will take photos and show them off but until then I have to try my hardest not to click ‘BUY’ on anything else. It’s going to be painful and if I struggle at any point I will blog about it. Wish me luck!!!

pfft

…ROLL ON APRIL!
