Howdy! I have bunch of important and "important" stuff I should maybe be doing right now, so what's more perfect time to do something totally different (ie. translations). There was a collection of juniors and their profiles on the new TV Guide, and I thought that I could translate some of them, since usually the "basic facts" etc we have on the regular magazines seem a bit outdated.
I was selfish and just picked the ones I'm most interested in ::D I could maybe do others if there's someone people would want to see?
The ones I did, in the order they were on the magazine: Iwamoto Hikaru, Kyomoto Taiga, Kouchi Yugo, Sanada Yuma, Jesse, Takahashi Fuu, Tanaka Juri, Teranishi Takuto, Hirano Sho, Matsumura Hokuto, Morimoto Shintaro
Edit: Also did Anderson Casey, Okamoto Kauan and Masuda Ryo.

That was it!
Hmm, recent things: So much school stuff to do, and the midterm period is also slowly getting nearer and nearer. :| I promised myself that I will GANBARU like crazy until midterms, because after them, there will be all kinds of stuff going on and I'll most likely need to skip classes more and all. The rest of the spring will most likely be both fun because of all the trips and cons coming up, and stressful because of the end of the semester and moving-out/going-back-home circus will start orz.
Fandom stuff! CREAAAA. The announcement came a lot earlier than I'd feared/expected, which is great. Anddd I have no complaints about the group I'd want to go and see. Of course shame that Taiga won't be there. But reallyyy, all the B6 lately, what is going on, stop teasing us already u__u
...I still haven't watched my Kisumai con DVD orz. Mostly because I'd need to borrow Siina's laptop for that since mine doesn't have the CD/DVD slot. I've also watched only half of the making of. One of these days... On the other news, I'm kinda excited for their new single. At least I'm super proud of the splitless covers! :3
ps. I'm almost ready to bet money that Taiga isn't 177cm?? I wonder if that's a typo or if he's KIND OF mistaken himself, or...? XD
