An Accidental Arashi filled day
As the title suggests... I've had an Arashi filled day in this wonderful place known as Hong Kong.
... my 2 uncles taking my brother and I out to Mong Kok (all HAIL Mong Kok) to have a lovely shopping filled day. After lunch (which was filled with fabulous dim sum)we wandered some alleyways and LO AND BEHOLD. At one of those dingy magazine stalls was not 1 but 2 magazines with Arashi on the cover. One was a non-no and the other was a Men's non-no. On the cover of the no-no was Arashi and on the Men's was Nino. Can't wait to tear into it and look inside.
After that magical moment we proceeded to walk and stare and shop through Mong Kok (which is fairly difficult). Along the way I bought stuff from Skin Food and some scarves. My brother was leading the way so my uncles and I were just following blindly, until -dramatic pause for effect- he took us to (what I like to refer to as Heaven in Hong Kong) THE EPITOME OF MEDIA SHOPPING!
You see, there is this one building on Nathan Road that houses what I like to refer to as one of the best places in HK. Inside I have found many rare and not rare editions of Japanese and Korean media. They have Chinese media too but this is HK that's everywhere. It really doesn't matter if you're an otaku or not that place is THE BEST PLACE EVER!!!! In there I proceed to purchase Arashi's Here We Go! and Arashic.
After all this tiredness settles in (Arashi takes a lot out of someone who's still semi jet lagged) so we make our way to the MTR station and I assume that my Arashi filled day would be over. Fate works in mysterious ways and as I enter the MTR station, I see and ad promoting Japamese toursim... guess who was promoting it... YOU GUESS RIGHT!!! ARASHI OF COURSE!!
and that is the ACTUAL end to my Accidental Arashi Filled Day.
P.S There was a girl breaking down in the middle of the Station, screaming and crying into her phone like mad... interesting moment for my uncle, brothe and I
P.P.S I took some wonderful pictures for you Jenn Jenn
