I finally got a copy of Freestyle today! After weeks of searching and hunting and considering buying one from some girl in the states (at some jacked up price, plus shipping = twice what I'd pay here) but my stubbornness paid off. I checked the Kinokuniya website after Chelsea told me they had copies and found that the Otemachi branch had some in stock. I had Andrew call first thing this morning and get them to hold one for me which I picked up after work today. I also applied to see the show, which I was not picked for but I'm alright with that. I wonder how "random" it really is. They say "apply between 9om and 4pm" but I recieved an email back around 11 that said I hadn't been chosen. Why didn't they wait til the submission deadline? Whatever. I'll keep trying but if I don't make it in, Oh well. I've spent enough in train fare going to Tokyo this week. And I'm going again on Sunday for an teaching seminar in Chiyoda-ku. The event itself is free and I'm almost tempted already to blow it off because I'm still exhausted from the weekend.
Arashi announced they're doing a dome tour this summer! They're playing Tokyo Dome on June 14th and 15th. Tickets are actually kind of cheap (as far as tickets go I guess) at Y6800. Koda Kumi was almost Y8000, I think. It's just a matter of how to go about getting tickets. From what Chelsea told me, most of them go to the fan club which neither of us are members of. I couldn't see any dates for when ticket "sales" start so we have time still.
In not so good news: I left the aircon on ALL day today. Fuck. My bill is going to cost me an arm and a leg this month. >__< Maybe I shouldn't bother trying to go to the show anymore and save the money to put towards my bill... that and I bet my phone bill will be higher because I've been going on J-web and called Yvonne... Fuck. There goes my birthday money!
Now, to check out my book and get to bed. I went to sleep before 10pm last night and was still exhausted this morning. I guess that's what happens when you don't get much sleep because you're busy getting it on.
