Happy 22th Birthday Eririn~!

Even though Eri is no longer in MM, it doesn't mean I will stop wishing her happy birthday on my blog. To coincide with her 22th, I've ranked my top 10 photos from her 'Sweet' pb.

I remember not liking the angle of her head on the cover :P But the white lacy bikini was very nice though the bottom seemed slightly loose? XD Those abs were woah.... Kame always had the best body ^^;

Cover

Back

10th

It's all in her eyes...though I won't deny that the black bikini helped too ^^:

9th

I can so imagine her out on a date with her gf, who happens to be Sayu or OD XD And they were quietly staring at her while she admires something in the store window :D

8th

Who knew purple bikinis could be so attractive. And again it's in her expression. This time she looks as though she is saying "I can be a rebel too. I can be just as good a S as I can be M." :P

7th

OH MY GAH! I think Sayu's mind would explode if she saw Eririn lying on the bed like this next to her. Then again, I think anyone would be unable to resist.

6th

How is it that she can have such beautiful eyes? I'm sure the make up helped :P But she is already naturally beautiful.

5th

Is it a coincidence that half of these 10 photos have her in a bikini? XD But she does look good!!

4th

Ahhh this one. I had it as my Aiphone wallpaper sometime this year. And I remember BS asking if it were GakiKame XD Does the turtle bean bag duo look alike?

3rd

NOOOOOOOOO. Having your fingers anywhere near your mouth is a big no-no! It makes people think weird :(

2nd

If I have to name one body part of Eri which I love, it has got to be her abs. Imagine if I had this picture as my laptop wallpaper and sat at a cafe or coffee place and people walked passed when I happened to minimize my windows. Woah.... XD

1st

That green towel is so darn lucky! I don't mind being an inanimate object. For example....that towel? XD I love her hair in this pb. As well as her perfect figure? Oh, I should also mention how her eyes and lips and nose are ultra adorable too.

Kamei Eri pbs are definitely worth collecting :D

AiGaki Duet ~ LA・LA・LA Love Song

There was a time when a drama called 'Long Vacation' was a huge hit everywhere. And when I say everywhere I mean in a lot of Asian countries. *Sigh* I miss the days when Jdramas and Jpop was all the rage. Unlike now..which is the K something era :(

Anyway, I liked this drama and loved the song. Now that AiGaki sang it, I love it even more! I can so envision Ai being the female lead in the drama with Gaki being the male one? Since the girl was older than the guy in terms of age :P And the bean does sound lower than her wifey in it.

I WANNA SEE AIGAKI IN A DRAMA TOGETHER DAMNIT! A LOVE THEMED ONE. With each other as the person they like please. No 3rd parties to be involved XDD

Oooh and I must say I am so in love with the part where Ai-chan raps. Well, I think it can be considered a rap. Listen out for from 20 sec onwards. Man, I love this. Did I say I love it?? Lol, yeah I do love it so so muchie!! :D

Gaki-san's husky voice and Ai's clear one blends so well together no? Ahhhhh, I think I can go to bed with a smile tonight :)

PS: Thanks to AA for uploading these. Arigatou~~

Wed 15 December 2010

Ahhhh...the day finally came. The sad day that Kamei Eri will no longer be in Morning Musume. I guess I also feel sad about JunLin's departure, but no one can replace Eri in my heart. She was so goofy and made me laugh all the time. Not to mention how I always found her so perfect in various ways. She was cute, beautiful, sensitive, sweet, kind and had the most gorgeous figure within MM imo :P I also feel that she brought out the best in Gaki-san as well as Sayumin. And I love how she manages to make Ai-chan play along with her in the most ridiculous ways :) *Sigh* I'll miss you Eririn. *tears*

Since this post is about the best turtle in the world, I'll talk about her solo album. Solo album, that sounds so awesome doesn't it? Pity UFA didn't produce an actual hard copy CD for her. I wish they did. I would so buy it. Selling the songs on Recochoku and Itunes doesn't really do the girls justice? I remember I also wished for Ai to get a real CD when she released 'Yume Kara Samete.'

Consisting of 9 songs, the album is titled 'Hello! Cover.' I don't know why I kept reading the last 2 words as baka XD

The tracklist is as follows:

1) Manatsu no Kousen

I'm surprised she chose this song. Old school Musume is something that I haven't been listening to for a while. Gaki-san sang this before and I liked her version more than the original :P So I guess it's no surprise that I like Eri's more as well? ^^; I get the whole summer-y feel when I listen to this :) And the image of OGs playing in the swimming pool appears in my mind. UFA should go back to shooting such videos. It isn't expensive to do yet is fun and healthy.

2) Furusato

Again, Risa sang this too. Is GakiKame trying to be funny here? XD Because there are quite a number of songs which both the turtle bean bag pair tried out. I quite like this song, though it starts to get boring after a while ^^; Ai-chan also sang this before. Coincidence much? I like all 3 versions. Or maybe I just like anything these 3 sing? :P Eri's voice sounds really gentle here. I like.

3) Koi Wo Shichaimashita!

Now this song, I'm a fan of. I loved it in the past and it's a nice surprise to hear it again after forgetting about it for so long. A bouncy, happy song that make me wanna clap along and do the woo hoo pose :D But maybe this is more suited as a group song than sang by a single person?

4) Seinaru Kane ga Hibiku Yoru

I think I prefer Risa's to Eri's? Not that Kame didn't sing this well. In fact I put it on repeat for a long time. Maybe the bean has a more "rich" and mature voice that goes with the feel of this song better? The would Xmas sensation just pours out when Risa sings.

5) Egao ni Namida ~ Thank You! Dear My Friends ~

Not much feeling towards this one. It's still nice but I'd much prefer Egao or another one of Aya's ballads. For example '100 Kai no Kiss' was good? Still, it was a good attempt? The chorus was especially catchy :)

6) LOVE Namida Iro

Yippee!!! This is one of those classic Ayaya songs and I'm a big fan of it. Isn't it really weird that Risa sang this too? In the 2006 H!P Wonderful Heart Concert. I found Gaki really gorgeous in this perf. Oops, why am I praising Mame when this is supposed to be a Kame related entry :P

7) Koi no Hana

I'm not making this up. Risa sang this too XDD Hmmm sad to say I'm not a fan of this song no matter who sings it ^^;

8) Onegai Miwaku no Target

No idea what the lyrics mean but this is one heck of a awesome song. I loved it when Melon Kinenbi sang it so no prizes for knowing that I would adore the Eri version. Now I have the urge to sing this out at a KTV lol.

9) Kousui

Another Melon song. Also very nice and suits her voice.

Awwww Eri. You make me wanna cry when I hear you sing this *sniff* All 4 girls were good in this rendition. But I think GakiKame were slightly better than the bunny? :P

Come back soon Kame! I'll be waiting for your return as an actress :)

Cover Songs by GakiKame

GakiKame desu~! XD Okay, that has no relation to anything but I just wanted to shout it out :P

I have liked this song by Tanpopo since a long time ago. But I didn't expect it to sound just as good with only one person singing. The title in English is 'the night the holy bell rings' and there is a line in it about illumination aka Xmas lights. This immediately reminded me of that pic on Gaki's blog where AiGaki were standing under some beautiful lights in the street. I think the bean wrote that she asked Ai to go admire the lights with her? Or was it the other way round? Whichever it may be, I'm just glad they went together. The whole image of it is just incredibly romantic to me. Personally I think it would be an awesome experience to walk with the person you like while soaking in the Xmas season :)

Another line, 'may love last forever', I truly hope it is what happens for Mr and Mrs Niigaki :P

聖なる金がひびく夜

For Kame's solos, I have not heard all of them. Out of the 3, I like them in this order. I thank the person who uploaded them otherwise I would not be able to hear them at all. Ojou 3 + Rika sang this before for one of the old H!P concerts and I loved it. I even showed it to a friend who isn't into H!P. And she agreed it was good. She could have been patronizing me but I'm still happy to hear that comment ^^;

香水

A classic Ayaya song. One which I used to play to death. So imo, it's another great choice by the turtle ^_^

LOVE涙色

Ahhhh this song. This one gives me mixed feelings. Risa sang it on 'Hello Pro Hour'. I thought it was just okay? But she did look gorgeous in it so I think that made me like it a lot more :P

恋の花

I'm probably gonna get ignored for the next few days or scolded for writing this but you 2 idiots! Go see a f***ing doctor already! I'm so damn pissed that you gals are so freaking stubborn/disobedient. Take a couple of days MC, stay at home and rest so you can recover fast. Why put yourself through needless torture? And don't tell me there isn't a need to visit the doc, you won't recover fast anyway etc. Follow the damn instructions strictly and you'll be good to go in no time. Don't throw this back at me cuz it's not the same scenario.

I wish I could tie you 2 to the bed and make sure you eat proper meals of the right food and medication. And no! I didn't mean it in a hentai way XD

And to you overseas person you (the one who told me that the weather is getting unpredictable and many people are falling sick), if you are also unwell, you better take better care of yourself or I'm gonna scold you too.

AHHHHHHHHHH, I'm so annoyed...

Your Song...Eri's Song...

Your Song ~ Oath of Youth

This was originally a Aya song. I don't have the translation of the lyrics (or maybe I do since I have her album somewhere) but I have a feeling Eri is singing this to herself? Sigh, every time I think that it might still be okay even though she's graduating, something like this comes up.

Maybe it's due to my mood, maybe it's cuz of the stupid flu, or maybe because I'm being affected by something that's not even related to me. Whatever it is, listening to Eri sing makes me tear. her voice is so soft and touching. It really suits this song.

Things will never be the same again. I can't imagine what it will be like if the rest graduate too. I don't think I can take it? Now I don't want to watch the graduation concert. I know the others will cry like mad and I will too.

I love this picture of her. Isn't she so sweet and pretty? I wonder if it's from the 'Friday' magazine. They should have included this instead of the other white dress photo.

Ever imagined what a winter spent with her will be like? It must be nice.

Rival Survival concert pic. Ame is so lucky to be able to watch it. The last MM concert with the turtle...sigh

Seishun Collection. Kame along with Ai-chan looks the best in that pv. Kawaii Kame-chan. I love her little fang, her eyes, her hair, the way she smiles etc. In short everything about her.

She makes anything look good by wearing it. The perfect face and figure. Just like Ai. Sayumi loses out a little cuz of her slightly lanky frame, but that girl is beautiful too. Awww it's alright Gaki-san. Although you may not be as pretty, I still like you loads. You're special to me.

I don't even know why I'm blogging when I should be rushing out work needed on Monday morning. In fact I blogged a lot today? Maybe blogging about MM takes my mind off things? I need a new brain and body! The ones I have are too lousy. They keep malfunctioning XD I wanna be a robot. Robot Ham sounds good XD Then I won't be able to feel anything.

Bijou Gaku #35 ~ Fortune Telling + Foot Massage

I thought there were going to eat Korean food. And the C-ute girls had to leave as the restaurant served alcohol? But it turned out that it was a fortune telling session. And yep, I know that if you are under a certain age you aren't allowed to read your future.

I love how Ai-chan seems so unwilling at 1:26 min. Does she hate to reveal her age? She really isn't that old at all. And she definitely looks much younger. Can't say the same about someone I know haiz. Risa's writing made me realize once again how pretty she is.

Gaki-san has such kiddish handwriting. I would have thought a child wrote those words :P Okay this part is interesting. Apparently those born in the rat or boar years during Summer and Winter would be good rivals to her? Huh?! I don't get it. Maybe I'm reading it all wrong and it doesn't mean that at all? I need a translation!

Ai again has a cute expression on at 2:47 min. I wonder what she is thinking at that point. I grinned when she laughed out at 2:56 min. And she touched her head again. Her infamous habit. Kawaii ne. Did she lose weight? Ai's face seems thinner. I hope she has been getting enough rest. But I have to say she looks really good.

AiGaki has huge reactions when they heard that Ai should try for the MC route. I know she fumbles but who said a good MC can't fumble? She could be those hosts whose characteristic is to be cute and dorky. And somehow I think she would succeed in the end. She just needs more confidence in herself.

Ai's eyes widened so much at 4:35 min. I wonder what the fortune teller said. I love how she looked at Mr Niigaki after that. The way she looks at people is always so... I don't know how to describe it. It's just nice how she does it. And then they both mess with their hair :) With Ai's getting more messed up ^^; And she said "I'm sorry" at 4:56 min!!! It was so cute!! Her tone and all :)

Yay for linked arms at 5:32 min. And Ai went to touch the woman's cheek XD Kawaii!!!

I know that's supposed to be some sort of herbs that they are boiling? But it feels like soup to me. I would have gone to drunk it if no one told me it wasn't for drinking ^^; Poor Gaki looks so bored while sitting on the thing to be boiled XD

LOL at 8:03 min when they started pointing at each other. I think they were hoping that they didn't have to go through with the foot reflexology. They should all try it. It's quite a nice feeling.

And they messed up their hair again at 8:54 min XD Is it really true that when people spend more time together they end up following each other's actions and habits? They barely started the game and Ai lost already? XDDD Awwww, the way she falls to the floor and how Risa patted her head makes me go all mushy inside :)

From 9:16 min on is pure gold. Omg, thank you so much AG for making me smile. I really needed that. The return of the baka and aho XDDD 10:27 min, look at how Ai rests her hand on the TV and her hip. It's cute! Hearing Risa go "Ai-chan~~" at 10:16 min made me happy :D

Ehhhh?! Wait a sec. How is it that the woman can massage feet now? You mean she wasn't the fortune teller? Why do they look alike then? @@ Lol at Ai-chan yelling her head off about the pain while Gaki didn't even flinch XD Ai's xin jo OHHHHHHH!!! at 11:16 min was XDDD The way she contorted her body and her face was adorable to me. And her posture in the chair too. She sank so low, lol, with her arms so rigid by her side. It must have really hurt ^^; Sigh, why are you so cute in so many ways? Why can't the dumb bean see it too? :(

44th Promo Music Jump + Solo Ver.

The first time I saw their 'Music Jump' perf I had to do it without sound. The dance moves weren't that great but with the music, it wasn't so bad. I wish MM could have more live music shows to go on. I feel indignant that they never get the opportunity to show people what they can do. Granted, this song probably wouldn't be the best choice but who knows right? You won't know the results until you try.

Bonus points go to leader for the self touching at 0:59 min. Ai seems to do it often ne? Not that I have any complains :P

Sayumi's messy hair at 1:08 min and 1:27 min for the win! This bunny takes my breath away at the most unexpected moments. There have been quite a few times when I just look at her and think, "wow, she's gorgeous." And whenever they do that move where they spread their legs I just go @@ Oh gawd, stop making people think wrong Sayu! ^^;

I've noticed that Reina likes to have a clip in her hair recently. Or has it been there all along but I've missed it till now?

Gaki's hair looks somewhat dry. Has she not been conditioning it? Or is it that she doesn't have the extra time since she spends all her free time out of work eating a particular someone XD

For once I didn't find Risa overdoing her moves. In fact, Jun Jun appeared to be the member dancing the hardest. Did sub-leader decide to tone down so that the graduating members could have more airtime before they leave? Or perhaps she is just too tired after "eating" a delicious meal the night before :P

The balloon prop hanging in the middle of the stage is so distracting. It's way too big and looks like it will drop down at any second. Dangerous ne. It reminds me of my fic where I wrote about the stage lights malfunctioning lol. Speaking of that, I feel terrible for not updating MGR. Sigh, no inspiration and no mood makes it hard to write.

Gosh, I actually didn't have anything to say about Kame. What happened?!?! Gomene to Aika and Lin Lin too :(

Solo Versions

Ai-chan

Woah...all that self touching @@ Ai definitely is the most expressive of them all. Her facial expressions and body language beats everyone hands down. I'm talking about the good ones so Risa, even though you also have a lot of actions usually, your wife still wins XD Strangely, I find myself staring at leader's lips a lot. I wonder why. And I'm gonna imagine that these are what she does whenever she wants to get her hubby to eat her :P Her ears are so big and cute!!! A perfect spot for Mr Niigaki to kiss I suppose :P

Mame

Your hair is like hay!!! Lol, but it's still nice hay. Cuz I still think it looks good. And why are you smirking? Are you pleased that you are always on top? XDDD Is there something very interesting to your right? Why do you tend to face that direction more? Ahhh I know! Maybe Ai-chan is standing there waiting for you to wrap up so you can go home together. Yes, her home...together XD

Eri

I'm really not a fan of this hairstyle. But I do like the fringe. I wonder how they create those bangs that kinda curl in? Funny that it's only in Kame's solo pv did I start to notice that there are other things in the video other than them XD The furry boots again makes me wanna touch them. They look comfy. And the bubble like plastic wall looks nice to bounce against. Though they do make me think of the rooms in a mental institution ^^; Which in turn reminded me of GA. What is with me and fics?! I must be suffering from the lack of good and sadistic AG fics :( Again I find myself staring at lips. I always thought she has kissable ones. I wonder if Sayu finds them tasty :D

Sayumi

Ahhh, and finally we come to the babe. Babe as in hawt and gorgeous girl. I think the black background makes her look incredibly fair and this makes her look so darn good to bite! I also adore her luscious hair. I love it when she places both hands over her chest at 1:19 min. Frankly, I don't know what sort of emotion Shige-san is trying to put across (I doubt she knows either, lol). But heck, she looks awesome and I especially love 1:33 min when she bit her lip (omg doki doki XD) and 1:44 min where she acted flippant and did that little strut. WAHHHHHH~~ L.O.V.E LOVELY SAYUMINNNNNNNN!!! Lol.

Lullaby Song for Boys and Girls

MM's 44th single. I was highly anticipating this as it was Eri's and the pandas' last single. BUT.....hmmmm ^^; It's still okay in the end cuz the song gets catchy after a while.

I think I'm just not pleased with the huge bow on Reina's head, Eri's horrible dress, and Risa's...well...I don't know? Something is just weird but I can't exactly say what is. But at least she has good hair? I like her hair, looks so kakoii ^_^

On the up side, Ai-chan and Sayu both are really pretty! I love her hair and the scenes with the flower petals all around them *in love* JunLin actually look very good. I think their dresses are one of the better ones. Perks of graduating soon maybe?

Aika looks okay? Nothing too spectacular but not too shabby either. All in all, this isn't a bad single. So...BUY IT!! :P

CM

Doesn't watching it makes you wanna rush out and get it? It did for me :D

PV

With subs. YAY! I love subbed pvs cuz I like to know the meaning of the songs.

White Ver

Black Ver

Close up

I prefer the black and close up versions but I like the cover of the white version so that's the version I'm getting. But now I wonder if I picked the correct one ^^; Why am I so fickle?!?! No, I think I just love MM too much and want to have all the versions XD

I still find that Ai's hair reminds me of those scenes in wayang where the actors twirl their hair around :P The outfits of them in their respective colors look a little strange but then I got used to it after some time so...hee hee. I guess to me MM does no wrong. Or rather, I can forgive most of them :P

44th Single Promo ~ On Ryu

I think On Ryu~ was the show which did a feature on Cinderella in the past? Thus I like this show XD

1:35 min is evidence that Eri is actually a S when she is alone with Sayumi :P

Reina looks absolutely bored. But then again, the show seems kinda boring so I can't really blame her ^^;

Damn you UFA, get them on an interesting show already &#$^#(*$&U@(I

I like their furry boots. Looks very huggable :)

And I'm annoyed now cuz the stupid thing didn't save my draft as I was stupid and signed out of gmail in another window and didn't realize this would happen. AHHHHH!!! Now I have no mood to retype everything else that I wrote before :(

AiGaki on their HoneyMoon

The morning after the wedding XD

Why is Ai holding the umbrella when Gaki is the guy? Tsk! :P

Ai-chan's yatta yatta while jumping is cute. She sure loves her kimchi :D

Doubt Airi knows anything about korea from her expression. Haha.

LOL!!! At Gaki's HAI?!?! *with flying brows included*

That thing looks like a torture device lol!! But since it's related to food, could it be used to press down those Korean pancakes as they are being cooked? Oh I know!! It could be a pizza slicer lol!

WHY IS AI STILL HOLDING THE UMBRELLA?? OMG GAKI, DO SOMETHING!!! lol.

And I laughed again when Gaki's mouth dropped open. Is it so shocking to be pressing down on that lump of dough?

That is one huge cake. And why didn't you offer it to your wife first Mr Niigaki??? *Tsk many times* XD

I suspect Maimi could be a better bf than Risa? Just look at how the 2 handle the umbrella. The Cutie leader balances it on her shoulder in a way which ensures Airi doesn't get wet. But the bean...XD The edge of the brolly kept poking into the back of leader's head, lol.

I still think the way Ai eats is cute. WHY IS SHE SO CUTE SO EFFORTLESSLY?!?!

And they can't stop eating. Is that bun/cake/pancake really that majisoyou??

YEAH!!! Ai has her hand around Risa's arm!!! *bounces up and down happily*

EHHHH?!?! Are the guys really that good looking? I don't think so :P They look like they have more make-up than the girls ^^;

They sure are excited by the mega bowl of ice-cream cum ice? I could recreate that, just dump 10 helpings of ice kachang with ice-cream together XDDD Thus my point is, come here MM and C-ute, I'll let you have as much of this dessert as you want :P

After watching till the end of the clip, I have to say, that #1 most popular guy in the shop... is not cute at all, period XDDD

111111

That would have to be next year ^^;

But 111110 or 101111 is still as great no? :D *sigh* I can't believe you are already 21. You still seem like 16 to me ^^;

Happy happy birthday Reina-chan!!!

Which member calls you that? Hmmm I wonder. Maybe none? Or maybe anyone XD

The first member within K4 to wish Tanakacchi happy bday was my dear Gaki-san at exactly 00:00. I bet she set an alarm at 23:59 to remind herself :P

Next is Sayumin at 00:02. Something tells me she missed the time cuz she was so caught up with posting a super long entry XD I couldn't even print screen it in the same frame. Blame my tiny monitor or the stupid Macbook. Or maybe I'm just that bad with technology :D

Finally it's Ai-chan's turn at 23:25 on 11th November. I'm sure she wished her earlier than that but since her blog is updated rather late at night, it can't be helped.

I wanna know what time Kame wished the kitty. Did she try something funny in return for Reina's sly little excuse about why she sent it at 12:23 instead of nearer 00:00? XD

The Wedding Dinner ~ #30 & #31

As I am watching the clips, I began to wonder, do the average Japanese people really attend such classes? To learn about how to behave in a wedding dinner? There are so many ppl involved in it eg. wedding couple, guests at the dinner, props, booking the venue, renting the outfits, cost of the sensei etc. Won't it be really expensive?

Moving on to the main point of this post now XD

Starter ~ #30

Ai-chan was really cute when she kept looking at the men for cues. And is it just me or did her range of facial expressions greatly increase? I never knew that she had such varied expressions and all of which are incredibly kawaii!!

As I watched leader drink her soup, I was wondering when the sensei would yell stop :P Scooping soup outwards and siping it from the side of spoon is right but oh no!! She didn't eat the croton first. Buuu buuuuuuu~! No more soup for the adorable saru-like lady :(

With all her comments in the tiny window on the screen, Gaki-san sure looks like she knows how to handle the soup. Did she peek at the sensei's notes? Or does she really know? She scored really well on an old H!M episode where they were tested on phone ettiquette. So maybe her family taught Mame to be a proper little lady :)

I thought it was sweet that Risa knew Ai liked corn soup. But apparently this trival should be known by Ai fans? As someone told me XD

Main course & Dessert ~ #31

Ai-chan again shows off her super duper cute expressions in this vid. She makes me smile so much while watching and makes me think she is really darn cute. I'm supposed to be a bigger Risa fan! Oh man, is my love for the bean beginning to waver? ^^;

I lol-ed! at the bit when a piece of meat dropped out of her mouth XD And again when I spotted the speck of sauce near her mouth XDD Lol at Gaki's reaction. This couple is too cute for words!
!! Ai's pout = killing ppl

I was laughing like crazy when I saw how Maimi and Airi ate their bananas. Why did they choose bananas?? It's just weird even to say the girls are eating bananas :P

It's obvious one shouldn't pick it up and bite it so Maimi was out straightaway. And gosh Airi, can you not be so cuteeeeeee? How do you intend to slice off the skin after cutting it into tiny pieces? It would take forever XD

LOL!! OMG HAHAHA. I'm convinced this entire 3 episodes is to reaffirm the fact that Ai-chan is indeed kawaii XD Firstly the way she sliced the banana so was gentle. It was as if she was afraid it would feel pain XD Then the clanking of the knife she was holding against the dish was funny and adorable too. Ai-chan!! Please continue to be this cute so you can attract and hold on to your hubby. That Gaki can be too slow and dumb so sometimes you have to take the initiative :D

Seeing that pic of Risa and Saki on the cover of their DVD makes me want to see the movie so bad. A cool Risa is love. I hope the show makes it to our shores. I wanna watch it in the cinema!!

6kkies on Vacation!

When I first saw this pic, I thought it was from their 2nd and final Hello Hello! photobook. On closer inspection, I discovered it was for Hello! Channel Volume 2. I like this picture as it gives me a nice feeling. I could imagine it as the cover of some travel magazine. Hmmm, actually this is a good idea. Why must everyone rush to be models for fashion mags? Travel ones could be just as good and you even get to travel! :D

The title, Kamei Eri with Michishige Sayumi & Tanaka Reina makes feel that the turtle is the star with the other 2 as backup :P But I guess that is understandable since she is graduating *sigh*

The bunny looks the most yummilicious here. I wanna just grab her and run XD Eri's top looks nice. 'Holiday and Love,' I wonder if she managed to achieve both there. Would this work trip be like going on holiday? Since they did travel to a few places. As for love...well that would be up to Sayumin to *ahem* handle :P And Reina, just looks like Reina :D

What a pretty turtle. Looks like a princess. Everyone now...swoon!!! Lol.

SAYUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!! *grabs and runs* XD

I have nothing to say about her hair anymore ^^; But her outfit is nice. And that store behind looks interesting. Is it food? Gosh, I sound like Lin Lin now XD

Pocket Weekly ~ 31 Oct 2010

This time the question asked threw up some interesting answers. For example, leader's.

Firstly, does she sleep a lot? Ai-chan definitely doesn't give me the impression that she sleeps a lot. Pinching yourself in order to wake up, I wouldn't recommend that as well. Reason being, I did that many times when I was in school and it never worked XD This reply makes me think that she really is an M cuz she likes to feel pain :P

Eye drops eh? Why didn't I think of that? I wonder if it works? It should be quite refreshing no? Awww, why did Gaki reply "I torture my Ai-chan to keep awake?" XDDD One S and one M. The perfect combination, tee hee.

There wasn't a doubt that Eri's answer would be this. I envisioned it already, lol. I just didn't expect her to think of herself sleeping first before actually falling asleep.

Ahhh, another pincher I see. But is there a reason for only tormenting your left hand usagi-chan? Your poor left hand must be very sore quite often ne~

Now this advise I approve of. Standing up or walking about can help more than inflicting self pain XD Reina is smartest for once :P

I wonder if Aika taught the kitty this method or was it the other way round?

Ehhh?!?! This reply was surprising. I thought the pandas wouldn't do anything which would get them in trouble. Hmmmm, very unexpected of Jun Jun.

Eat again? XDD Lin Lin just doesn't give up any chance to eat does she, lol. Listen to music eh? That would depend on the type of music she's listening to I suppose.

I like such questions to be posed. At least it gives me a better idea of what each girl is like. Please have good questions like this again!! Onegai~!

The 6kkies Apologize

I saw a pic of TanaKamei with the "funny" eyes action on someone's blog before I found out about the whole controversy. At that time, I didn't link that to making fun of any nationality. It was just fooling around and having fun.

Then when the news broke, I was surprised that it became so big. I mean, isn't it over-reacting? I get that some people are more nationalistic than others but still, it doesn't warrant freezing the girls' blogs or headlining it on yahoo news.

The most ridiculous part was entertainment shows reporting on this as well. Why don't they feature MM when they go to the Expo or promoto the doggy help program. Why can't they praise the group when they raised funds for earthquake victims?

Frankly, I'm super annoyed about this. And if they wanted to do a report at least get their freaking facts right. How the hell could anyone mistake Ai for Eri?! They don't even look that alike in my opinion. They are both extremely pretty but that doesn't mean they can be mixed up like this!! GAH!! I'm not amused.

Now that the girls have apologized on their respective blogs (Kame did it on Reina's), they can continue to post entries. But I'm certain there will still be people making unkind remarks about them for this. It already started with comments about things like their apologizes aren't really written by them or that they weren't sincere in saying sorry. Come on!! Everyone makes mistakes and it just happened that this time it was something which treaded on some people's toes. But can't people forgive and forget? Just let it go already.

I'm sure the 6kkies feel bad enough without having more bad things said about them. I'll continue to support the bunny, kitty and turtle. They don't deserved to be flamed like this. None of MM does. Ganbatte kudasai 6th gen!

AiGaki to be Married!

I wish that were really true XD Those 2 were in Bijou Gaku (did I spell that right?) #28 which talked about the correct way to present a gift to a marrying couple.

At first I wasn't too thrilled that Airi and Maimi were also there as I wanted AiGaki to have more time together. Surprisingly the 2 C-ute girls weren't very chatty so having them around was fine :P

I really should have taken screencaps of the episode instead of just including the link but I can't do that right now so this will have to do ^^; Hopefully the vid isn't taken off too quickly. Or maybe it isn't even available anymore XD

The highlight for me definitely has to be when AiGaki kinda bantered about who should be the sensei's assistant. They were really cute there! Haha, I can't stop smiling when I think back to how Ai pulled Gaki away and said she should be the assistant and Risa did the same to her but she didn't exactly pull her wife. It was more like patting her aside somewhere near her butt. Kawaii!!!

I don't think it's a surprise that I enjoyed leader's segment the most since well, I am more of a MM fan than the other groups in H!P :P Tell me again why a grown woman can be so adorable and cute in her mannerisms? *Sigh* Ai is really someone whom people in general can't help being attracted to :)

As for Gaki, I liked to watch all her funny expressions when she observed the other girls or when the sensai was yelling, lol. Maybe besides being a DJ, she has potential to become a comedy actress? XD

What I really REALLY want though, is a nice drama with AiGaki as leads. Preferably in a show with a sadistic storyline and them being a couple :P I know it's a near impossible wish, but I still can dream right? ^^;

Happy 22nd To a Special Person!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! My dear Mame-chan!!

You are 22 now. I hope you will always be happy and healthy. Happy because it's not easy to attain and there are many who are unhappy in this world. And healthy because that is something money can't buy and you definitely have to be healthy in order to be happy.

I have many more wishes for you, all of which I hope can come true. Wishes like you and MM enjoying popularity and success :)

And of course I want you and Mrs Niigaki aka Ai-chan to have a loving and long lasting relationship. Please give us some pics of you 2 being affectionate to each other :P

Sayumin's Bday Message to Sub-leader:

The Wife's Gesture of Love:

Look at the words on the card. It says 'I love you.' Awww, isn't that sweet? I always thought Ai had good taste. This watch just proves it further. This Mickey watch is of a character she likes and it's gold too. Gold watches are great looking imo. Plus, a watch is a great gift for Risa since she wears one and seems to only wear that white one XD About time she got something new :P There is a flower too. Don't boyfriends give flowers to girlfriends? Though the birthday girl is the guy, but I think this is one occasion where it doesn't matter who the giver is :)

A Family Celebration:

I'm pretty sure the couple were with Risa's family for the meal. Count the number of hands. Ai should be there. I want to believe that ^^;

Nacchi's Gift

I have no idea what this is. Perfume? I like the card though. It's so nice of a senior to put effort into drawing a personalized card for her kouhai. Abe-san earned loads of brownie points from me :D

I wanna know what the rest of the members gave Risa. But if she only posted a pic and talked about the present from Ai, I think that means something. The watch is special to her. And that makes me happy to know :)
