~~~~Beginning of May 2~~~~
After the next day that I arrive to Japan, it is the Johnny's Jr concert~~~ Happy Happy~~~ In the moring, I plan to go to Harajuku Johnny's Shop first; So, I can bring Takky's Fan when I watch the concert~~~
I think when I get to Harajuku, it is about 9:45 in the morning~~~ pretty early, isn't it???? well, I don't want to waste time ne~~~ The Johnny's Shop is not opened yet, so I plan to do some shopping first~~~ wow~~~ I already see the rings and necklaces and tatto bracelet exactly the same style as the ones that Takky wears~~~Haha~~~ of course, I will not give up this chance of buying the same accessories as Takky~~~ haahaa~~~ buy them all~~~ Then, I see the shop of buying celebrities' pictures, but many of them are just recopy from the magazine~~~ so I do not buy anything over there. Then, start to buy clothes ne~~~ of course, Akiko likes to shop shop shop~~~ a really cute sweater cost only 700 yens~~~ wow, it is so cheap, of course, it is on sale ne~~~ haha~~~ I just can't stop shopping~~~ Then about 10:20 am, I think it is about time to go to the Johnny's Shop~~~ My main purpose to come to this place~~~ Because this is the first time I go to the shop, well, take sometimes to find out exactly where it is~~~ Then, I see people start to wait the line to go downstairs, so I wait also, Oh~~~ this is the place of taking sticker picture~~~ of course, I take one w/ Takky also ^^.
Then, I plan to go into the Johnny's Shop. Oh, no~~~ it has a message outside says that because there are so many people, so Fans need to grab a time ticket outside the exit of the subway from the staff~~~ You know, what time is the time that I'm allowed to go into the shop~~~ 2 p.m.!!!!! When I get the ticket, it is about 10:30 am~~~ 2 p.m.~~~ well, so I shop shop shop again, and then go back to Nakano (place that I live) to drop off my stuff.
On my way back to the hotel, there is a shopping street that has many things to buy~~~ when I walk through a shop of selling cell phone~~~ wow~~~ I see Takky's one to one size poster board~~~ wow~~~ Takky is so kakoii~~~ I just walk around to see whether I can take a picture w/ it or not~~~ and I walk into the shop and pretend that I'm looking at the products~~~ well, the cell phone is so thin and cute~~~ well, so I ask one of the sell person whether I can use the phone in America~~~ answer : No~~ make me so disappoint~~~ I want to have the same phone as Takky does~~~Okay, I cannot get the phone, then I want to get the poster~~~ I will pay pay pay for it~~~ but they just keep saying "No, no, no, to me". At last, I get couples of Takky's NTT Docomo commerical Booklets, and then I just ask the salesperson to help me to take a picture for me and Takky's poster board~~~ you know what, at that time, I think that I'm really taking a picture w/ Takky ne~~~ so happy happy \(^o^)/ Even though I know that that salesperson will not read my HP, but anyways, Thanks alot, you are very nice ne~~~~
After I drop off the thing, I start to go back to Harajuku again~~~ wow~~~ already so many people wait to get into the shop. When I get into the line, it is about 1:55 pm, but then again, I have to wait until 2:30 p.m to get into the shop~~~ I'm really worried worried at that time, because I still have to go to the concert that night.
My terrible experience in the Johnny's Shop: Okay, okay, wait wait wait, until I have a chance to get into the shop. Jesus, I don't know that the shop is that kind of small (seriously, this is my first time visit to the shop, so I don't know about that) There are about 100 people in the shop already, because the Jr has concerts for these couples of days, so there are new products out. Many many many Takky's pictures, one new solo poster also~~~ haha~~~ because too many pictures, I decide to pick the some that I like, but then it likes there is no way that I can get to see the pictures. There are just so many people inside. Someone even pushes me, and I almost fell down~~~ but there is no way that I can fell down, cuz at my back there are so many people also, there is no space for me to fell~~~ well, so my final decision is to buy them all~~~ cannot stay inside anymore~~~ After I'm done w/ my shopping in Johnny's shop, it is almost 3:20 p.m. Need to go back to hotel to drop off my stuffs ( I bought too many things, cannot bring them to the concert...)
Start to go to Yohokama Arena: 4:00 p.m Hurry, Hurry, need to get to the arena early. In fact, I plan another way to go to the Yokohama Arena. First, start from Nakano to Hachioji, then change from Hachioji to Shin Yokohama. Before that, I think that it will only take me about 45 minutes to get there. Finally, it is about an hour and a half to get to Shin Yokohama~~~ wow~~~ but in fact, I plan to change from Hachioji is that because this is the place where Takky lives. Even though I don't know where exactly his home is, but at least, I can know the surrounding of the place that he was born in~~~ Hachioji is a place that I think it is very peaceful, very traditional home-town that I used to see from the TV drama~~~ very different from Harajuku, Shinjuku, or Shibuya~~~ there is a big big Sogo (if my memory is correct) next to the JR station. Did Takky go there before, probably he does~~~May be next time, when I have more time, I'm going to walk around in Hachioji for awhile~~~ really want to understand more about him~~~~
Shin Yokohama: When I get to Shin Yokoham, it is about 5:45 p.m. so worry worry ne, only 45 mins before the concert~~~ I have not bought the ticket yet~~~ But there are already so many ticket scaplers outside the JR station. Of course, I just walk to him~~~ of course, I want a ticket that is really really near the stage~~~ In the beginning, he wants to sell me a ticket which is on the second floor~~~ No way~~ No Way~~~ you ask me to see to a tiny little dot moving around the stage~~~ No way~~~ so I always insist that I want a ticket that is really near the stage~~~ then, he helps me to find a ticket that entrance is Block A~~~ haha~~~ exactly face the main stage~~~ this is what I want~~~ but you know what is the price that you give me for the beginning~~~ 50000 yens~~~ at that time, I think that is there something wrong w/ my ears or whatever~~~ 50000 yens !!!!!!!!! Then, I start to say 20000 yens then~~~ he just says no no no~~~ ( well, next time, I should start w/ 10000 yens ) At last, we finally agree that the ticket price is 25000 yens~~~really expensive ne~~~ but I'm really happy that night. The ticket below is really expensive ne~~~
Concert: 6:30 p.m. Refer to my report of Johnny's Jr Spring Concert
The concert is ended about 8:30 p.m. In fact, I have plan to go to Shibuya after the concert~~~ well~~~ my plan always changes~~~ When I get into the concert, I see many girls are holding a pinknote thing~~~ what is that???? I just wonder wonder wonder at that time~~~ the girl sits next to me just open the book, Wow~~~ I see Takky is in it~~~ this is the special book only sale during the concert~~~ Wow~~~ I need to get it~~~ but I don't have time to get it before concert, you know what happen la~~~ Then, after the concert, I just ask the girl where to buy it~~~ well, but I don't understand she's talking about ne~~~ Finally, need to ask the stuff about where to buy the goods~~~ again~~~ take me about 30 mins to buy the book below~~~ but no matter what, it is worth~~~
When I left the Yokohama Arena, I see four Fans dress in the dancing clothes that Takky and other Jrs wear before, that is just so cool ne~~~ hahaa~~~ I'm going to act as Takky~~~ hahaa~~~ After that 9:20 p.m, I go to a bookstore to buy magazines, what kind of magazines, you know that, then I think I should go, so I can go to Shibuya~~~ (why I so insist to go to Shibuya, tell you later on) Again, my original plan is delayed again~~~ I see many girls are selling old magazine~~~Wow~~~ you know what happen to me again~~~ so I put my knees down for an hour and half in searching Takky's old magazines~~~ Hahaa~~ I bought so so so so many ne~~~ Happy Happy~~~~
After it is all done, it is about 11:00 p.m~~~ hahaa~~~ so I should just go back to the hotel~~~ well~~~ even though Japan is a country that is really saft when you go out at night~~~ but still, just for my own safty, so go go go back to the hotel~~~~~ p.s. A really long long day for me, isn't it????
~~~~End of May 2~~~~
~~~~Beginning of May 3~~~~
Hahaa, are you tired in reading my dairy like thing~~~ but you know that Akiko likes to type alot ma~~~For the next morning, I go to Harajuku again~~~ Hahaa~~~ I like that place too much~~~ Yup yup~~~ I went to the Johnny's Shop again~~~ because I need to buy the Smap's thing for my friend, so~~~ last time I only bought a few for her, feel kind fo guility, so I go there here again~~~ this time, I get there at 9:30 a.m.~~~ Jesus, you know when I can get into the shop again~~~ 12:00 at noon. Oh~~ well~~~ another crowd crowd shopping again~~~
Then, I go to the temple after my shopping~~~ feel little bit guility about going to Japan w/out telling my parents about that~~~ so, I go there to review my sin (may be la~~) and wish Takky, my family and my friends for good life then~~~ feel little better after I went there.
Shibuya: Why I'm going to Shibuya~~~ hahaa~~~ because Takky went here to take the pictures for the magazine before, so I want to find the exact same spot that he stood ~~~ A really really big Tokyo sign at the top~~~ ( I scan that magazine later on)~~~ of course, finally I find it ~~~ hahaa~~~ feel quite good when I look at the scene that Takky has seen before also~~~~
About 8:00 p.m.: I don't go any place any more, because I'm just so tired~~~ physically, I cannot walk anymore, but mentally, I'm really really strong still~~~ haahaa~~~ after I went to the hotel~~~ of course, turn on the television to see different shows~~~ haahaa~~~ I see two commercial of Takky at that night, one is the NTT Docomo commercial, Takky suddenly appears and disaapears in a cyber space~~~ look just damn cool ne~~~ Another one is the new Lotte commerical "Soh" ( it is an ice-cream cm, it should be ice-cream), in this commercial, Takky is playing Kendon~~ sweating sweating because of the exercises, so after he eats the ice-cream, it is "Soh" (means feel cool)~~~ Takky's swearing look is so cool ne~~~
