'nobasu? nobasu?'
THE CLUB.
Okay, but am I even allowed to post this? Like... I'm not breaking any privacy rules or something right? But it's my dashboard?
Oh tumblr, how I love thee~
So basically, tumblr is my number one to go to when I need to satisfy my basic Arashi needs. Livejournal is the place to be when I am having MAJOR Arashi craving.
Anyhooos.
I just realized 2017 is my 10th year of being an Arashi fan. Huuuu~ I can't believe it. TEN YEARS. It's like a freaking milestone or something. Should I celebrate? This is the longest time I've been obsessed a fan of something.
Technically, it's around August-September-ish when I became an official fan -- and no, not official as in member-of-fan-club-official but more of a that's-it-i-am-obsessed-over-these-guys-it's-official-i-love-them kinda official. By the time Happiness was released (and a quick peek at Wikipedia tells me it's September 2007) I was sorta into them and by the release of their next single, Step and Go in February 2008, I was already a gushing mess over them lovely dorks.
I used to binge watch everything Arashi (Thank you, Arashi communities on LiveJournal.) But then as time goes on and I have to keep up with this stupid boring Real Life™ that I had no choice but to kinda lie low on fangirling, because I have to somehow trick real life into thinking it's my priority, but sshh it's really Arashi. XD
So I had to you know..miss out on the guys.
And I'm glad I'm not alone. See photo above,
Thankfully there's tumblr, so once in a while I still get a few updates on Arashi. In the end, I kinda like it this way. It's like I've been away for quite some time that when I see a video clip, show, photo, whatever, I have this kyaaaa~!!!-oh-my-god-high-pitched-inner-squeal™.
Just like this morning I watched an episode of AnS where Gackt made them do those silly workout with dropping medicine balls onto their stomach and I was squealing at the way Ohno said, nobasu? nobasu? because he's cute as fuck.
plus the scream that followed kinda woke the sadist in me
Anyhoohoos.
I've digressed.
Bottomline is, I love Arashi. I may never be as active, but I'll never stop being a fan.
