What should have been...
So quite obviously, today we are going home on the plane. There was nothing ceremonious about that. All the usual airport procedures and then we boarded the plane. The food was pretty good this time.
The dessert.
This time, everything tasted as good as it looked. So at least there wasn't more false hope.
Speaking of false hope, this brings me to the main topic of this post. MY RANT OVER ALL THAT HOPE I ENDURED FOR A GOOD THREE MONTHS THAT ENDED UP CRUSHED. MERCILESSLY.
Let me explain myself. What I'm talking about is ViViD's Budokan which I've mentioned a few times previous to this post. Last year, around October, it was pretty much confirmed that I could go to it. I already had the tickets bought and even the trip to Japan had been planned out and arranged. Honestly, the only reason I went to Japan this time was for this show. And then, last minute, I FOUND OUT I COULDN'T GO. I was so pissed when I found this out. It was literally about a week before the live when my mom told me that she was negotiating with the travel agency to change my plane ticket so I could come home a day earlier for my grandma's funeral. I realize that I shouldn't be complaining about this at all because of the reason of why I have to come back earlier, but I can't help it. I've waited for this concert for three months and everything was scheduled and set. I had thought that absolutely nothing could stop me from attending this time unless a massive earthquake hit Tokyo or one of the members got sick and the show got cancelled. But in the end I couldn't go anyways. Though I hoped that the plane ticket would not get changed, it did and I ended up leaving on the 7th, which is the day of the event. And my plane left the terminal about a few minutes like ten before/after the concert started. I swear that life is just out to tease me sometimes.
I've started to believe even more wholeheartedly after this incident that I truly have a curse of not being able to make it to anyone's show successfully. Time and time again I've come awfully close but never gotten there. FLOW once and ViViD twice. I feel so empassioned about this that I've decided to make it my New Year's resolution to break this curse. I must go to a concert I want to go to successfully before 2012 is over.
But eventually I got over it and I felt somewhat better after I saw pictures released from the live.
I also found some news on their website! The DVD of their Budokan is going to be released on April 18th and they already have a three-stop hall tour planned for the summer~ViViD TOUR 2012「Welcome to the ROCK★SHOW」

Perhaps I'm getting a second chance? *is too scared to hope* Well SID has a tour over the summer too...I guess I'll just have to see how everything turns out.
P.S. There's a live report here done by the wonderful wlifers.
