嵐 本番でのメドレーは4曲 紅白歌合戦リハーサル
デビュー10周年で紅白歌合戦初出場となる人気グループ「嵐」。本番で披露する「嵐×紅白スペシャルメドレー」の曲目は、「A・RA・SHI」「Love so sweet」「Happiness」「Believe」の4曲と、この日判明。選曲は、本人たちの意向とNHKの要望で決めたという。冒頭にはデビューからの軌跡をたどる映像が流れるもようだ。
オリコン年間チャートで史上初のCD・DVD“4冠”を達成、今年の音楽シーンをけん引した。非公開のリハーサル後、取材に応じたメンバーにはカメラマンのフラッシュの“嵐”。松本潤(26)は「こんなにフラッシュ浴びたことなかった」と驚いた様子だった。
最近は街で会うお年寄りらに「紅白見るよ」と声をかけられるという櫻井翔(27)は、「10周年の締めに紅白に出られて、いい記念の年になった。(引き続きジャニーズ)カウントダウンコンサートで2010年に向けたいい流れができる」と語った。
リハーサルでNHKホールのステージに立ち、「『あ、本当にやるんだ』って実感しました」と、感激の様子なのは大野智(29)。同じジャニーズ事務所のNYC boysの知念侑李(16)が「嵐に負けないように頑張る」と、ライバル宣言したことを報道陣から聞かされて、「こっちも負けないように」と気合を入れたが、メンバーから「仲良くやろうよ」とたしなめられていた。
嵐は午後10時45分ごろまで出演。その後、カウントダウンコンサートの開かれる東京ドームへ移動するという。

Hi!!!
sooo as I said now I'm hooked into BBC radio shows, right now I'm listening to a drama adaptation of The Hound of the Baskervilles :D
ok, now for something completely different and to add yet another *I was listening to a podcast* series
this time I was listening to one about how art has been linked to humanity since long ago between other stuff... and how much we value to possess original art *when possible obviously* rather than reproductions, and this is because we feel as if we can connect with the artist mind at some level
this made me think about another podcast about webcomics and there's a guy who sent a question to the show asking how they manage with reader mail and hate mail, if they have some sort of *answer ready to send* or something like that, since he spends so much time answering to his
so the guys were talking about how much they prefer short and sweet mails with something like *thanks for your hard work, I love your strip* rather than long messages and how they usually ignore the hate mail
but they also were talking about how... weird is when they get messages that are something like *I have been reading your strip for a long time and I'm not satisfied at how things have been going lately, so unless you change this I'm not gonna read it anymore* "not exactly the words but that's the idea"
and they were saying things along the lines of *who do you think you are to tell me what I can or can't do with my strip?!* but let's put that aside and something that really got me *I didn't know you even existed*
which brought back to my mind yet another podcast hosted by a couple, and I was thinking when they were telling his experience of meeting/interviewing some of the cast of MST3K *if you don't know what that is, google is your friend* and how weird it was at first for them cuz they didn't know how to conduct themselves, specially the woman cuz she said she was there expecting some sort of super friendly almost family welcoming and how she was thinking *c'mon guys, it's us!!* because she's been watching them for so long, that it felt as if those ppl were family
so I was thinking about all that *I know it's too much...* and the strips, because now and then I get some comments from you telling me that the strip of that day made your day better... or how you've been reading those for months and how much you like them
and this is nice and a little strange for me, cuz sometimes that's the only message I get from some of you like, ever
so it makes me feel good and perhaps a little guilty because it's like *wow this girl has been following my silly strips for so long and I didn't know she existed!! oO* and at some level I feel guilty for not knowing that, I know it's impossible to know who's reading, but still...
however, is nice to know that even when you don't say a word, you're still there; laughing with me...
*or at me, but I prefer to think is with me*
so I just want to say:
and now I believe what will be the very last strip of the year
is good to know it's just a *little* advice
*as usual locked in 2 days*
See ya!!!

MATSUJUN'S HERO: SON GOKU FROM DRAGON BALL
I
first learned about Goku in second grade. I was at a friend's house,
flipping through his copy of SHONEN JUMP, when I just happened to open
it at a DRAGON BALL page. And just like that, I was hooked. I sure did
my share of pretending to defeat the enemy by focusing my energy
through "Kamehameha~!!" (that's the pose on this page). I came
to buy SHONEN JUMP every week, and I also own most of the collected
volumes. The art is great, and all the characters are just fascinating.
I think the reason why I'm especially drawn to Goku out of all of them
is because he's a hero who combines both cheerfulness and superhuman
strength. You really make people get all worked up when you're that
strong. And every time he overcomes a challenge, he just becomes more
and more mature, in a cool way. All 42 collected volumes are really
amazing. Just try and read them yourself. You'll get all excited and
enjoy them without ever getting bored.
Seems like MJ and Chipmunk went to the recording studio today^^
Recording their new single?
It's out!

Below are my entries for both short and long fics.
Myeong Dong and Mistletoes (Long fic. Pairing: none. Avg rating: 7.3)
The Perfect Christmas Date (Long fic. Pairing: TKMN. Avg rating: 8.5)
A Gift For... (Short fic. airing: none. Avg rating: 6.4)
And one more, that precedes all the fics (the fics make minute references to each other).
"She was wearing his shirt."
Lastly, just for reference, the wonderful graphics contest.
Will It Snow For Christmas.
What an irony.
I was 90% through ep 8 and was thinking how the supposed-to-be angst-filled ep unfolded quite nicely and captured my heart without being overdramatic. And then, the ending of the ep, which I had expected given the scene set-up, started to push things downhill.
Kang Jin kisses Woo Jung in front of Ji Wan because he recalled Tae Jun's accusation that if he doesn't let go first, Ji Wan will continue to hold on even if it means death (as she develops illness from feeling too guilty). Seeing that, Ji Wan leaves, heartbroken. But she doesn't see the tears that wells up in Kang Jin's eyes and how they fell down his cheeks after she left. In a voiceover:
I dreamed a dream. In that dream, I met Ji Wan. In that dream, I made Ji Wan a promise, that I won't let go of her again. That I won't be that foolish like back during our San Cheong days.
Such bittersweet words.
And then, the preview destroyed it all.
With Kang Jin's new, Kiiroi Namida era hairstyle.
With hints that Kang Jin and Woo Jung collaborated in accepting bribery and plotting against Tae Jun.
With Kang Jin and Woo Jung looking like they got together.
It doesn't really make sense and I hope that it's just the PD trying to mislead. I mean, given Woo Jung's character, I don't think she would dabble with anything underhand. And if Kang Jin did something of that sort, ep 8's "Because he's (Kang Jin) honest and honerable" wouldn't make sense. Ok, now upon thinking through, I think the preview is misleading. I hope. But why is Kang Jin's hairstyle so different? Even Woo Jung's hairstyle looks different. I think there might be a time leap. If so, then perhaps it's possible for the two's character to change...T.T I hope not, or I might just drop this drama. Just as I was starting to really like Woo Jung and Kang Jin. haizzz
Looks like Travis Payne is in town for the MJ tribute session^^
Wow, hope Oh-chan gets to see him at the rehearsal.
Wish Arashi will participate in the above session w/SMAP
