Thought I'd do a 1st time posting about Tsubasa.

I know...it kills me to see that even after all this time, since I've been a 2 1/2 yr. Takki/T&T fan and been in the fandom for that long, I've never done a posting...ever...on Tsubasa. *sad face* I don't know why I never thought of doing an entry about him to begin with either, nor waited this long to do one. I guess because Takki consumes me almost 24/7-365, I had completely forgotten to do a segment on Tsu, even if it's just posting mag pages on him. (gomenasai Tsu-fans & to Tsubasa) *bows*

Well, I must dedicate this entry then. "To all Tsubasa fans out there in the T&T fandom~" Gomen, it's been a long time coming but, I guess it's better late than never ne? =)

Scanned in my new mags from the 0711 (Nov.) issues of WU & Potato. Just scanned them in Wed. morning at the univ. library in the Media Center. I'm constantly using their Mac comps and scanning stuff on their HP hi-res scanners. Glad to also find they've got Adobe Photoshop on all their Mac's. Pretty cool, even though I've never attempted using the program yet. lol :P Maybe I'm just too 'chicken' to try. :P (or lazy...one of the two...lol)

Well, please enjoy~XDD (even if you're not a Tsubasa fan) To any T&T fan out there, it's freely for the taking. ^_^ But, please let me know if you want to use these scans elsewhere. All you have to do is 'ask'...thanks~ *onegai*

Omg! I'm at the university as we speak and I just finished scanning/making my tags to the new 0711 WU & Potato mag scans.

WU 0711







(Takki's new AMO CM while filming)


(now, I think this article has something to do with Takki's latest NY dorama to air in Jan. and also when T&T was a special guest on MS, I think...not sure because I can't read Japanese to save my life. lol :P)

Omg...Takki's photoshoot on WU this time around was really kireii-looking. Kinda reminded me of autumn, with the autumn leaves and fall colors. So niiiiice~ ^_^ Tsu's, one on the other hand, wasn't that good, I guess. More 'casual' but, in a way, I guess...it's kinda befitting to his nature though because it's really cool-looking too. What I meant to say is, since it's less 'fancy' than Takki's, and it has a more of a down-to-earth-kind of feel to it (being outdoors and leaning over a railing outside), it's kinda nice to see that side of Tsubasa too.

Now, the Potato one of both T&T are really kakkoii-looking. It has an 'artsy' feel to the entire shoot and Takki, of coz, looks ever-so-kakkoii. *melts*

Potato 0711





(Takki's new AMO CM 'making of' shots. Love the way he's about lying down in midair with the cables hanging from his shirt. You can see chotto, little bit. :P Wished I was the one to tell him 'action!'. lol Wonder what it's like to 'hang' lying down or jump like that from a cable? Only Takki knows...^_^ LOVE his new CM btw. *melts* And love his hair in here.)


(Don't care for his hair style here. lol Now I'm guessing this article is about his new dorama that's to be airing soon in Jan. for New Year's. I'm not sure but, it says NHK so, I'm assuming this is what it's about. I sooo wished someone out there could transliterate for me into English what this article is saying. :P Anybody?)

Too bad I think he needs to get another haircut again. He should keep the spikyness on top and on the sides, layer it and razor-cut the ends. Tsu's photoshoot was hontoni kakkoii too! O_O I must say though, that Tsu's new haircut in this shoot was 'wow'. The 'artsy' feel to Tsu's totally matches because it relates to his artsy background and one of his hobbies, which are art and architecture. The paint effect and making the images with a 'blue' tinge to Takki's matches their personalities somewhat too.

I hope I sound 'not so complicated' here because I sometimes feel as though (in some of my entries) I'm going around in circles, talking about things over n'over, rambling on or something. I hope I'm making sense, is what I'm saying. lol :P Oh well... The main thing is upld/g these mag scans to you guys alright. ^_^ You can judge these for yourself and please do comment when taking. I always love to hear what you have to say and see your comments on my cbox. :) Please don't attempt to take off my tags on these pages. (or I'll have my computer programmer friends send you guys nasty viruses to your comps...lol I'm kiiiiiding yo.)

Well, y'all enjoy...and don't forget to tell me all about it. XDD ^_~

Another day, another week…

That’s how my life has been going for me lately. For me, time flies by so fast these days that it always seems the older I get, the faster the weeks go by, much less months. Can you believe it’s October already? My goodness! And it seems like only yesterday it was summer. (well, for me anyway)

Whoops…I almost forgot, but not quite. I say ‘not quite’ becaaaause…I need to say this outloud to all the Tsu-fans out there. So, for all the Tsu-fans and to Tsubasa himself…

”Happy ‘early’ Birthday, Tsubasa!!!!

I thought I’d shout it out now before I forget. Not that I’ll forget Tsubasa’s bday…no. Don’t take it the wrong way. Just that, because my life’s been so busy with all the hustle and bustle with my own family and everything, I know I’ll end up forgetting (gomenasai, Tsu! Jus bop me on the head, will ya? lol). So, I just wanted to make a ‘shout-out’ to Tsu-sweetie, that’s all. Hey…can’t forget our ‘other boy’ in the unit, right?

I also can’t believe Tsubasa will be turning 26 soon. Wow! Kinda getting chotto old there, huh Tsu? lol :P Just kidding, just kidding. And, just when I got through getting used to him being 25. =( He really has come full circle with his looks looking much more matured and handsomely fine these days. (esp. with the new haircut ) Omgosh…even though I’m not a Tsu-fan, I am also a teansy-winsy-bit of a T&T fan too. Take right now, as we speak, the TV Guide pic on Michelle’s website, the kakkoii-looking T&T anniversary pic. They’re both wearing sharp, black suits w/dress shirts tucked in dress pants. Whoa…if they dressed like that on a date with me, I think I’d be in ‘heaven’ (and faint ). lol But seriously. Not only does Takki look mighty FINE (as he always does in suits) in that black suit, but Tsubasa as well. Now, when I said mighty fine, I meant Tsubasa too. Because, when I also say he’s turned ‘matured and handsomely fine these days’, in that picture, he really does. I mean, look at him. He’s tall…slim…looks so kakkoii-looking in a black suit…and Tsu’s hair (finally) is cut to perfection. Now, if only Takki can razor and texture-cut his hair slightly shorter (on sides and back and still leave the spikiness on top) and die it natural black, I think they’d match even more handsomely as a duo. (dang!) *dies just thinking about them looking like that* They’d be the perfect unit, I swear. (not that they already are) *throws out peace sign with both arms stretched out and head to one side* But, go take a look on Michelle’s website and see for yourself what I mean. (20070921; TV Guide mag photo of T&T)

T&T, you both look SUPER-KAKKOII in black suits!!!! They should dress more often like this, deshou? lol ^_~ (I wiiiish…*melts* )

Now, back to my entry…

Since my daughter just turned 4 yrs. old in August…and when I think about it, pretty soon my husb. and I will turn…well, let’s just say…HONTONI OLD. lololol His bday is Jan.21 and mine is March 23. But first, it needs to be Xmas & New Year’s first before our bdays come along…hehehehe~ Good! At least by the time it’s our bdays, I’ll already have reveled in the New Year and Xmas by then. =) (and taken in T&T’s next Xmas Kuricon too…online that is… )

It’s also flying by so fast that T&T’s ‘Best Album’ is coming out shortly on Oct.17 (or do I have the date correct? Gomenasai if I don’t. Remember…I’ve been out of sync with the T&T fandom lately.) And… their next ’07 Xmas Kuricon will be in December too. Whoa~ No time for a breather here I see, ne? Yo, T&T…hold up will you? You’re going too fast for me to take a MUCH NEEDED break, yo. LOL :P Daaang! I best be getting myself a T&T fastometer or whatever you call it…just so I can catch up with them. (IF there even was such a thing… ) *pffft*

Since time flew by me in an instant this time around, I might as well post the rest of my long-awaited Enbujo LIVE venue photos here from my Jshop official photo collection. I know I posted these before, but these scans are much better now…TRUST ME. I used the university library Media Center Mac comps w/HP hi-res scanners. Since I found the media to be my ‘free’ benefit, I might as well take the opportunity to my advantage while I can, as it’s open for public usage.

Gosh, and using the Macs and HP hi-res scanners, ohhhhhh how I miss using them sooooooo badly whenever it deals with graphics, media, and such (not to mention scanning in mags...lol).

Since I last used a Mac, I think it was back in 1997, and it was my mom’s old, old laptop to boot. lol Remember those powerbooks back then? Omg, so embarrassing mentioning it. It’s so old I left it back home in Hawaii. Didn’t take it up with me when I moved to live in California. Figured I can buy myself a new one, thank you, even though my mom’s older Mac laptop is obsolete (and since she also gave it to me for free). I totally appreciate my mom’s openness in giving but, hey. It’s now considered ‘obsolete’ so…I desperately need a new laptop BIG TIME. Still didn’t buy myself one and am still looking around for top choices in laptops. Of course, I have no money to begin with. lol >< “Gotta save money, gotta save money” is my new montra these days. :P Too bad I have to do this the hard way. (saving money on my own w/no outside help) Even my husb.’s broke too. lol (well, sort-of

Ok...'nuff of my rambling on. Here are the new and improved scans to my Enbujo ’07 LIVE venue photo collection. Enjoy~XDD (sorry there's only 4 of them; that's how many I had a fangirl friend get me...I'm so *baka*. But, that's all I had money for at the time.) Will post the new 0711 mag scans in my next entry.
