a kind of love that is forever

*wipes off the three-year old dust from this journal*

Hello everyone! So yeah, I am finally back in this little writing space of mine. Hisashiburiiiiii! ♥

Firstly, I am having so much nostalgic feels right now. Surely, there were a lot of things that happened during those years, both in real life and in the fandom. A lot of people came in and went away too. For one, the once-super stressed college student finally got her degree years ago, got into her first job, fulfilled her dream to go on a trip to Japan just this spring (will post a detailed entry about that soon) and later this summer, she will be moving to Sydney to fulfill yet another dream. Time flies so fast indeed.

I do not know if my f-list is still blogging here in LJ or what but, I hope to regain those precious connections and meet friends with this blog revival. I somewhat expect that I need this little space to be my thought outlet once I set out my own life overseas in the months to come. Expect more blabbing and other whatnots to come your way. And I miss receiving postcards from you all.

So yeah, the fandom brought us to a lot of rollercoaster-like ups and downs. There are times when it bombards me with a lot of feels on a damn extreme range that it exhausts me so bad. At one point, it makes you high with so much happiness (hello Friday and Shuukan Josei saga) and makes you frustrated on the other (damn J, can I just slap your manager or whoever selects your projects because you play almost the same roles all these years). Honestly, following them for this long makes me tired too. So yeah, until he gives me a concrete logical answer other than 'daijoubu desu' and she finally breaks her silence, I am on a wait-and-see mode.

Anyways, you can also catch me here at my twitter and tumblr acccounts. So that's it for now. Mata ne.

I was laughing so hard while reading this. Nervous Mao-chan is soooo cute!

The first time I saw these pics, I was in awe. She's a bit different today, a bit more blooming than usual. Even if she didn't go to yesterday's Kokuritsu concert, I guess this makes up for that. :P

This has been an obligatory post every year like what I always do with the natal days of these two dorks and since it's almost the time in Japan, let me include this greeting post with lines that Jun said himself in some recent magazine interview lately.

It's such a wonderful atmosphere when I can tell my feelings to the one I love.

Recently, I've been getting that vibe from books, magazines, TV, radio and other stuff, so because of that, right now, I'm thinking if there's that kind of atmosphere when I can tell my feelings unabashedly to the person I love. While thoughts of not telling it completely still continue, I am drawn to that kind of thing and that makes me warm inside.

With that, I'm wishing the half of my OTP a happy happy 28th birthday. I hope the Kokuritsu concerts go well despite the typhoon warnings including that butai he has to perform this October. Finally, I hope he's spending this special day with the person he really loves. :P

Yeah, I am not an avid fan of this game show but since I heard Kaede-sama is appearing in this week's episode, I made a mental note not to miss it this time. True enough, it was very interesting. Jun's shocked face says it all

Got this from an NHK staff tweet.

Mao-chan just had her Ohisama crank up tonight at around 8PM JST. Tweets also said Kengo Kora teared for a bit. :)

I expect news coverage for this by tomorrow unless it is eclipsed by the Shimada Shinsuke resignation news that stormed the geinoukai on this same night two hours after

Hello lovelies!

I'm pretty much busy with RL now but yeah, since I found this interesting, I thought I might just share this to all of you.

This was from Josei Jishin btw.

( It was a 5 million yen difference. Now who's richer between Jun and Mao in terms of CM fee? )

He's one of the reasons why I'm watching NHK's current taiga drama Gou. He'll be playing Gou's (Ueno Juri) third husband. Can't wait for episode 22.:P

Jun and Mao in a medical drama, anyone? LOL

Credit to the ever amaziiiiiiiiiiiiing tumblr over here. Seriously, I can't take off my eyes from it since four hours ago. It's just sooo......*melts*

LOL I'm loving the name pun. Anyways, onto the topic.
