I could have burned down the house. :/
My nose is a bit blocked which is a sign I'm about to fall sick. Eating spicy Kimchi stew on Sunday didn't help unblock so I decided to make some ginger tea yesterday night. I put the pot of water with grated ginger on the stove and thought I'll go to my room and check my email. Bad move. I ended up browsing Yahoo Auctions (YA) and completely forgot about my ginger tea! I only remembered when my housemates knocked on my door to tell me! I did smell something burning just before they knocked but I thought it was just from someone toasting bread. It's a good thing I wasn't alone at home otherwise I would have continued happily browsing YA and maybe burn the house down. :/
As for what I was browsing on YA, it's Arashi's Ashita no Kioku or Crazy Moon LE singles. I love Crazy Moon and the PV but I already have the Best album and will buy the PV collection DVD later on so there really isn't much point in buying the singles. Except I love the covers! All editions of the covers looks super cool! I think it's one of the coolest CD cover I've seen. I'm not into collecting CDs but for those lovely covers, I intend to buy all editions of the Crazy Moon single. I was planning on buying both the LEs from a seller but turns out she threw away the obi and I want my CDs to have the obi. It can be opened without the outer plastic but the obi is a must. That's when I decided to take a look on YA. I found a couple of auctions and picked the cheapest one and asked my relative living in Japan to help me bid and mail to me. I hope I'll be able to win the auction. *fingers crossed*
I think shopping on YA can become addictive. I looked at some of the other NEWS, Arashi and Ayaka stuff and can't wait to get a job so I can buy more things. I think a lot of people collect CDs and DVDs but they don't interest me. I prefer pamphlets because there's plenty of pictures so it's like a photobook. So I'm gonna try and collect NEWS and Arashi's pamphlets. For now, I'll aim to buy the pamphlets with nicer looking covers. :P List as follows, not in order:
- Wasureranai Hito (Aiba's stage play)
- Arashi Summer Tour 2007 Time
- Arashi - 2007 Final Time
- Arashi Around Asia in Tokyo 2008
- Arashi ga Haru no Arashi wo Yobu Concert (2001)
- NEWS Concert Tour 2007
- Ayaka - Sing to the Sky
Btw I hope a more veteran Arashi fan can help with this. I found out today that there's 2 pamphlets for Arashi's Time concert. But in YA, I saw an auction for Arashi's Time tour pamphlet but the preview picture is different from the other 2. Is there actually a third pamphlet or does one of the Time pamphlet come in some kind of outer case which looks like the one I saw on YA?
The other Time pamphlet I saw in YA which doesn't look like the 2 below.
