LOL! Your friend drives all the way here for Stila products?
That's funny! But I love Stila too so I can understand where she's coming from...

oh, have i asked what ethnicity you were before or have we talked about it? i can't remember..anyway, for some reason i'm thinking you are Chinese..but then now knowing that your grandparents are living in Spain..you are Spanish??
oh, i'm sure there's a next time..haha..yeah, my friend is funny..she actually really likes the packaging of Stila..cuz she really likes stars and those drawings of the ladies..but she says the product is ok..LOL i don't own anything from Stila but i do like their packaging too. Sephora opened here in Toronto within the year..but it was only recently that they are also now selling Stila..but my friend says it's still more worth it to get it in the US..it's somehow more pricey here.

*cries a river* You guys don't want me to be here, desho?!? *cries even more*
LMAO XDDD

Linda-chan! I agree! Sho is really competitive! I believe he really wanted to win the USG, just to be proud of himself! He looked soooo determined! And that race in the beach... OMG!! HE DID RUN FAST! OMG! I was soooooooo amused when I first saw it! That made me sooooo proud of him! LMAO XDDDD

aww..we just want to make sure you are genki and getting rest!! ^^ LOL :D btw, so happy to talk to you on MSN for the first time just now!!!! ureshii ne!! :mrgreen:

that's the word! yeah, i agree..Sho is very determined!! he was good though..in many of the events..and his competitiveness and determination totally showed in the last obstacle..when he made it thru without getting hit by volleyballs..and got the key..the way he reacted! and how he threw something on the ground *forgot what it was* you can feel his tension and happiness for completing the obstacle. i'm like you i guess..haha..i'm proud of Ohno's efforts in USG..seeing him on the monkey bars amazed me too! ^^

somehow, i was really concerned about how Nino would do in USG cuz *sorry Nino fans* i think Nino isn't that strong or his strength isn't up there..but of course cuz of the past injury to his hand..but i was really impressed with how quick he ran up that ramp thingy...and how fast he can swim!! :shocked: sugoi ne...and the water obstacle..just reinforces how much of a perfectionist MatsuJun is..gosh, i'm suddenly so excited about USG..probably will watch it again at some point! haha..maybe tonight! LOL Aiba's penalty was fun..i was saying to my friend Monnchichi that i would lose on purpose just to be able to get Aiba's penalty!! haha

ne, Hikaru-chan..i guess you went back to sleep?? cuz i don't see you on MSN anymore! :puppydog: but then again, it's probably really late for you over there..or should i say, very EARLY! LOL oyasumi!

*EDIT* oh, so that's what happened Hikaru-chan..MSN is being mean to you tonight! *stomps on MSN* LOL ah..Mika-chan, what is your MSN?? i definitely would add you..or u can add me..haha..mine is [email protected]

konnichiwa! :woot:

ne minna...feel a bit sentimental seeing that each one has her own CHIIMU banner already! :dancing: :dancing: :dancing:

thanks esp to Hikaru-san & Slave-san for the idea and Furui-san for the banners! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Arashi fans are sugoi! :applaud: :applaud: :applaud:

gemplee-san
that's the best price deal ever! :hehe:
buy 1 get 5 ne? :mrgreen:

rock-san
hmmm...yeah i guess NINO and OHNO banners have identical colors...perhaps even with their banners OHMIYA wants coordination ne? :hehe:

LOL! No we've never talked about it. Yes, I'm Spanish but I was born in the Philippines then moved here when I was just a few months old. My dad's job kept us traveling for awhile but when I was born we pretty much settled here. Anyhoo, for some reason I do look Asian sometimes. Must be my eyes. They're deep set and almond-shaped. When I go to Chinatown people always start speaking to me in Chinese. I can survive Mandarin (sister in law is Chinese and she's been teaching me) but sometimes they speak very rapid Cantonese and I don't understand a word! LOL! And whenever I go to Kino they speak to me in Japanese too.:rofl:

I guess we're all reminiscing USG ne? I just rewatched it earlier... Sho's a pretty intense person, ne? The way he looked when he successfully did that final task. (What did he throw? Can't remember either!) It was one of the rare moments when their real personalities can be seen. With Sho being competitive, Aiba being a sweetheart (did you see him trying to keep that crying woman next to him calm? He even held her hand then in the end he was the one screaming his head off!:rofl:), Jun being a perfectionist (I don't think he even cared about the time anymore, he just wanted to get it done and to get it done right), Ohno's ability to adapt quickly to each situation (him on the monkey bars was so cute and also when he fell into the water during the final task) and Nino's surprising athletic abilities (He was super fast running up that cone-looking ramp thingy! And he was able to do it in one try!)

Ruki-chan, like I said on MSN, you're long posts are contagious!:rofl:

Ruki-chan, like I said on MSN, you're long posts are contagious!:rofl:

i agree with you..u can really see their personalities..not that u don't already in their shows..but i guess it's more prominent in USG ahhh..*reminiscing* LOL and YES, Aiba was very sweet and caring...but too bad..i think he needed more TLC (tender, love, & care!) than the girls..cuz he was indeed screaming his lungs off! when Oh-chan fell off and into the water in the last obstacle..see the difference in facial expression btwn Sho and Ohno?? hahaha..u see disappointment but not to the extent of Sho's...cuz i think when one of the girls on Sho's team fell into the water immediately w/o being able to go thru the course..Sho looked quite disappointed..and some other occasion Sho looked very disappointed too..but hey, i'm not bashing Sho..just reinforcing how determined he can be! ^^ Nino is just being a smurf..he's so light weight that no wonder he can go up that ramp so quickly..but it also shows his skill in strategizing and i guess he's witty?? he prob knows how to put which team member to which task due to their skills..jun is just again, perfectionist..but i was truly amazed and proud of him!!

i'm... back XDDD
gahd, i used up 2 hours to read the pages to catch up!

Muka-chan wrote:have you read Goong manghwa?

i totally forgot to ask you this!!! hahaha..what is Goong manghwa??

offtopic: i am so enjoying my chat with Mika-chan on MSN right now!! hahaha..

This was brought up only a few days ago already, but if you guys want to have a conversation can you please use MSN or the PM function of JDorama?

For other people it's not very interesting - and a waste of time - to scroll through six pages of posts and find not much but the few same members posting back and forward to each other. It also makes it hard for other people (especially new people) to post because it LOOKS like a private conversation, not a message board.


To the person who asked for recent Arashi news

- They just released a single called "Kitto Daijoubu"

- Their new album ARASHIC will come out on July 5th

- They are filming a new movie called "Kiiroi Namida"

- Nino just finished filiming Clint Eastwood's "Letter from Iwojima", which will be out in December.

- Sho will have two new movies out soon - another Kizarazu Cats Eye movie, and Hachimitsu to Clover.

- Arashi are doing the ET for H&C called "Aozora Pedal"

Arigatou Hikaruchan :woot:
