Ridonkulous. That's what it is.
Haha.. yay-box introduced this little gem on her LJ earlier today. It's so fun!
BEFORE I START I JUST WANT TO SAY.. my thoughts on the whole thing where people are complaining about Arashi not getting enough rest, or that they are hogging the spotlight etc. How do I feel about this...? Honestly I think that they deserve the spotlight. They have worked very hard to be where they are today, and I don't think that other groups are being 'ignored' because of Arashi. Yes, I think that other groups are being ignored, but not because of Arashi. That's just stupid.
On the other topic, yes Arashi is working hard... they have lots of shows and movies and singles and albums and concert tours that they are doing... but I honestly believe that Johnny knows how to take care of his.. property as we can so lightly put it. Does Arashi seem tired sometimes? Yes. Does Arashi seem unhappy? No. I do not feel that Johnny is making them work so hard as to affect their wellbeing, their mental health, and their life. Hell, if that was happening.. we would be having the issues that are extremely prevalent in the K-pop world right now.. *coughSuperJuniorDBSKcough* If Johnny was treating his talent so painfully badly, don't you think that someone would have sued him for that already? J&A was created 33 years prior to SME.
Okay so.. that out of the way.. life lately has been... just ridonkulous. That's about the only way that I can describe it. Between going to work, and all the different gatherings that I have been going to, between birthday parties and going away parties..
It's just nutso *insert emoticon of nuts that I don't have*
I also feel kind of overwhelmed with the translation projects that I have... granted, I picked them..
;; I shouldn't have picked so many. Oh well, at least I'm almost done with the one that's been giving me the biggest trouble.. *shakes fist at 世界一受けたい授業*
So... what have I been up to this week..?
On Monday, I was at work until late into the night, but then it was Nicole's birthday party which was super Aiba-filled
I was only able to go to the game night part of it, but that's okay because it was really fun! We gave her a gigantic cardboard birthday cake with a cardboard Aiba in it
;; she laughed so hard she fell on the floor.
She also got an Aiba painting, an Aiba shirt and an Aiba tote bag. (It was a very Aiba birthday)
Tuesday, I did my vlog and.. translated. Nothing super exciting that day, but I do know that it was full of me doing errands and other various things that I need to get done
;
Wednesday was work day again, and so I was there all day basically
I managed to watch the Himitsu no Arashi-chan from 2 weeks ago, and now I need to get all ready for the wtfSho kiss on this week's episode. Seriously.. WHAT IS GOING ON THERE?? I'm excited though because I heard this week's episode was awesome
aaand today was a very vloggy day. I posted 2 more videos, and then I did some errands. After that, when Lotion got home we decided to go out to our local arcade and play some DDR because we have a lot of left over coins that we need to use -- plus we need exercise.
It was painful...
Anyway, it was nice to get some workout which I haven't had in a little while. I think we're gonna try to go a little more regularly
And now we're here. And I'm exhausted. But I have translating to do, so I'm gonna do that
;
As another note -- I'm on pins and needles about the whole balloting thing. IS IT GOING TO WORK OUT OR NOT......???
