2008 Hello Project Awards Show

I went to Hello Project's 2008 Yokohama Arena concert Yesterday (1:30 Show). Center Seat, Row 18, seat 70. I was 3 seats away from the right-side mini-stage. Really close up to the members who sung and danced up there. The show was ok for me, would have liked to see more shuffling. They mostly stuck to the newer releases in the premade groups. Still, the Nacchi-Maimi combo was nice to see. As a Berryz fan, I thought that there was not enough Berryz comming to the mini-stages. Well, its not like I could see anything while Romancing. Well, I got three tickets for the upcomming BeriCute tour. Need that Jingiskan.

mommy and brother came

My mother and my brother came to visit me in Japan. We traveled all around Tokyo, walking far too much and spending far too much on food and entertainment. We did Karaoke, saw a Melon Kinenbi concert, had a few maid cafe experiences, and did lots of shopping.

付き合ってるのに片思い

Today, I saw the Berryz Kobo live event at Tokyo 厚生記念会館. I only got to see the second show, but it was pretty fun. Unfortunately, my seats were in the way back, second to last row. With the low ceiling, I could do a proper jump during the 盛り上がる. I loved seeing Chinami in the reindeer costume, and they all looked cute in their santa suits. It was great when Chinami did そんなの関係ねぇ!　and オッパッピー. I thought it was kind of weird that they sang 付き合ってるのに片思い twice, although the event was for buying the single. Still, it would have been nice if they performed Berryz仮面. Perhaps next year.
Lastly, there was the handshaking event, which was my first time. I wanted to do something interesting, like making funny faces or blabbering en espanol, but I was too enthrawed with being so up close to them. I think Momo and Saki-chan were the most fun to shake hands with, while Miyabi was kind of scary up close. Afterwords, I was so excited that I went and bought a new cellphone so I can download more Berryz stuff. Too bad Yodobashi didn't transfer my old data to the new phone. Guess thats something to do tommorow.

I added my Bros Blog to my new link list. Yeah. bunkiebunny.blogspot.com

Where is my body?

... was a great play I saw at Ikebukuro today. Starring Berryz Kobo, Momoko was especially funny. I also enjoyed Sakichan's お嬢様character. All the Berryz did great. Too bad it got overly melodramatic near the end. Otherwise it was great fun. The live was sweet, with the new single being quite exciting. ヲタ芸っぽい。
I wonder what the line outside the theater after the closing was for? Perhaps it was for buying the extra-release tickets for the next day's stage. Yeah for Berryz, I wonder what it would be like to change bodies with someone.

Classes begin

I'm having trouble figuring out what classes to take this semester. Of course, choosing a topic for my thesis is also weighing on my mind.
