Erm...
WTF!!! I TYPED A WHOLE LOT ABOUT KOI NO ABO'S SALES AND HOW MUCH I LOVE THE DVD AND IT'S ALL GONE BECAUSE OF STUPID LJ!
Hmph!!!
I'm lazy to retype everything again. :(
Basically, bonus DVD that came with the LE of Koi no ABO totally helped boost sales as evidently seen from the first day sales here. That's because pre-order sales are counted on the first day and LE is obviously not really available after the first day. And the RE doesn't seem to be selling as well as the previous few singles because the sales from the third day onwards is lesser than the previous singles seen here. But it's one of their better selling singles so I'm happy.
As for the actual single, love the entire thing! I love Labyrinth! Love the DVD of course! I was more excited than usual when watching it because I was there too. I think concert going is quite addictive. From watching the DVD, I fell in love with GAN GAN GANBATTE. Enough to make me romanize the short chorus at the beginning myself, memorise that chorus AND memorise the furitsuke! My favourite action is the one where they look like they're spreading butter on toast. :P

Dramas. Haven't watch any dramas for this season. :( Watched My Boss, My Hero and loved it. Matsuda Shota looks hot in Jotei! Tiger & Dragon was a little weird but I was quite interested in hearing the rakugo stories.
Because my laptop decided to go on strike and refuse to load any pages despite it saying I'm connected to the wireless network, I finished playing 3 games which I had downloaded aeons ago. The full game with cracks of course which is illegal. Magic Ball 3 is awesome as expected! I showed Mag a tiny bit only and she was hooked. But she only wants it during the holidays. :P 360 Paris Travelogue (something like that) was quite fun. The function that allows you to zoom in really saved my eyes but only for it to be destroyed when I played Magic Academy. It's a find the difference/find the items game so I almost went blind playing it. Quite a nice game though if you like such genre of games.
Last week I think, I finally chatted with Bernice online after so many months. Turned out, she's got into the programme and will be studying in Tokyo for a year come this Oct. I'm happy for her! We were chatting about how I should go visit her and I do want to visit her over the Christmas and New Year this year! But I doubt I'll have money for that. The next option would be to visit her in March 2010 during Golden Week where she'll be free plus sakuras are in bloom! Apparently her Uni has a road that has sakura trees planted along both sides. Sounds pretty.
NEWS will probably have a winter concert though. If they do and I can scrape together some money, maybe I'll make a short trip there. But a spring concert in 2010 would be perfect! I could then visit Bernice, see sakura blossoms AND attend NEWS concerts. :D Then there is also the option to travel around Japan with her after Oct 2010 as she would have finished school there and has 5 months of free time. That would be just awesome!
Well, that's just all talk. I want to make them happen though so gotta hang in there for now.
I've been working on my 101 list too. For the month of May, I'm going to drink a cup of green tea everyday and jog on the spot in my room for 1 hour twice a week. Green tea thing is easy but jogging is tougher. I motivate myself by jogging while watching concert DVDs. :P
