back from L.A.

So I went to L.A. to visit my grandparents and the whole time I felt like I was twitching from lack of internet and lack of Jdramas. Ha ha, well it wasn't that bad, but there was no internet and I was missing my D no Arashi and Yamato Nadeshiko. Also my Japanese step-grandma was talking about the stuff she hated about Japan now and I seriously felt like slowly leaving the room because she was complaining about the Japanese bands that jump around *cough cough* (a.k.a. all of Johnny's Entertainment) and she didn't like the new Japanese dramas, etc. The whole time she was complaining I was just nodding, going with what she said until finally my baka Papi said, "oh really? Kirsten here spends the whole day just watching Japanese dramas and watching boy bands." Then my grandma gave me on a lecture that I shouldn't be interested in Japanese boys because they are awful, blah blah blah, lecture lecture lecture. Anyway, it was fun but interesting.

Well, no one really cares about my personal life so onto Japanese dramas!

I'm pretty much in LOVE with Yamato Nadeshiko. Kame and Tesshi are just too cute! A must watch for any fangirls! It just feeds their cuteness to you. Uchi isn't too bad either and I'm starting to like this ballet-dancer guy. He is pretty good for a guy who has never acted for a drama before, but I guess he has an over-dramatic character that would be hard to mess up.

Sadly, I still haven't gotten to watch much of Code Blue 2. I need to get around to that now that I have internet...but what I've heard is that it has been good so far and touching.

Before I left for L.A. I downloaded Saigo no Yakusoku RAW and I got bored in the car so I wanted to check it out. It was seriously so good I ended up watching the whole thing even though I only understood a little bit more than 1/3 of it. Although I guess because it is a semi-action movie it was pretty easy to understand, but I want to watch it with subs so I can understand the end. Didn't quite understand enough Japanese to get it, but it was surprising from what I understood! Even if you aren't an Arashi fan, I heard from some non-Arashi fans that they enjoyed this SP as well because it is simply a good story besides it being for fangirls. Unfortunately there was no nakedness like shown on the poster...I feel so cheated. ha ha, just kidding *a little bit...*

Lastly, Tegomass Concert subs are out with newshfan. She is a lovely person isn't she? Right now that it downloading on my computer. I was really mad to check her site right before I left to find Tegomass's Concert uploaded on there. I was hoping I would be able to download it at my grandparents' house but noooo, my grandpa forgot his security code so I couldn't log on to his wireless...grrr...Anyway, I'll give a report on that when I finish watching it ^^. But just based off this video, looks pretty good to me :D

(seriously could not stop laughing at this! I had to watch it over and over)

Here is a little bonus of a variety show Tegoshi was on:

Anyone who has seen Mononoke Hime should enjoy this.
