Okay, so

mystical_mayhem and Bethany (I still don't know her LJ I think

) got back from Japan last week, and I had asked if she could pick me up a few things... and if she was going to the Johnny's shop for some Troublemaker shop photos

Well, we had planned to get together on Friday and hang out and stuff... what I was expecting to get was the Pikanchi photobook and some Troublemaker shop photos.

Here's what happened instead:

Biggest fucking haul ever, seriously.

Yeah. No amount of hearts and sparkles can express how amazing it was. So it turns out that her and Bethany planned a mini surprise birthday party for me. THIS IS SO SWEET. People don't do things like this for me, I really don't deserve it! T_T

They had decorated and got a cake with a picture of Arashi on it and rainbow colors and, and had hats and balloons and everything and aaajl;gh;ahdk. And Nino even decided to stop by for a bit!!! haha...

mystical_mayhem printed out a picture of Nino's face and pasted it on to a cardboard cut out of Taylor Lautner

;; They pick the least muscular one of Arashi and put it on a muscular man -- that was kind of frightening! Too bad Nino was feeling under the weather so his throat hurt and he couldn't talk much, and he didn't move cuz he was "sore from working out" as I was told by

mystical_mayhem.

Check out the awesome bag that they got me! The wrapping was like that too. SO AWESOME.

Look at these beautiful things

Ok there is a cash book to manage your checkbook, a Sho keychain, a Ninomiya Kazunari "MEMBER CARD"

, two cards of Nino and Ohno -- I don't know what they are but I think they just have information on them, and one of those unofficial photobooks... but it's so pretty!!

LOOK THEY GOT ME THEIR SIGNATURES!!! Haha well sort of. This is really awesome though and I am going to plaster it up on my wall

This is was I was expecting to get. Although the damn thing is evil. EVIL I TELL YOU. I should have been prepared but it's so much harder to open than I thought it was going to be

Look at this evil thing. I haven't even gotten halfway through opening it

Not one, not two, but THREE singles that I am missing. This is an amazing addition to my collection. I wonder if I'll ever be able to get A.Ra.Shi and the first few things they did

The most adorable uchiwa EVAR, a Sho strap, that square thing is a HAND MIRROR how awesome is that, and a Nino pencil!!

Some of the shop photos! Ohno with a hamburger looking confused, candy cane Sho, and some fishing going on up there

I got three magazines too

The April issues of Wink Up, Potato, and TV Life. They all have adorable, adorable posters in them -- and photo shoots.

And look at all that CANDY!!

On the left is a clearfile, the yellow thing is an awesome Arashi notebook, and then a laminated adorable picture of them

The amazing card. More on that below~

Here's some unofficial photos of Nino who is looking extremely angry in most of them

More of the Troublemaker shop photos! Jun is so surprised about his OJ! And Nino... well, you keep staring 8D

Jun and his pretty sunglasses, and some group shots!

The most adorable shop photo in the history of shop photos.

Here's one side of the poster that came with TV Life.

THIS SIDE IS SO ;A;b Shukudai-kun I WILL MISS YOU

More awesome posters!

Again! ;A;b

She also got me this heart thing that I put on my bag. SO CUTE.

And this is possibly the coolest thing ever. It's like a metal sticker... and it totally went on my phone!

I am an official member of the fanclub!! (j/k I wish but this will keep me happy for the time being 8D)

The outside of the card with pretty colors and a pretty sticker!

Another pretty sticker with some Engrish words on it

Here's the awesome card she gave me!!

The inside!

THEY ARE CONGRATULATING ME. AND LOOK! She even added a "23" to the cake!

This is so sweet but it made me crack up so much! I love you guys!!

I'm so sad that we didn't meet up earlier, but I'm so glad that we did finally meet! ;A;b

Jun is such a cock-blocker!! And he's a creeper too!

And this is the most adorable little manjuu keychain from Bethany that lights up when you touch it's ass. How cute is this!?

This is AMAZING. SO SWEET. I am so sad that I didn't bring my camera! But

mystical_mayhem came to the rescue and took some pictures for me/us

We had ice cream cake, and played some games, talked, chilled... ahh it was great after my long "Spring Break" (aka sitting and working on dreaded Senior Project for 5 days straight

)

Ahhh... after that, there was an impromptu fan meeting with us girls. Unfortunately

mystical_mayhem and Bethany couldn't make it to that but I scooted myself over to the dinner spot where me and

katzichan,

lyricalidol,

unlostwanderer, Barb,

hidekodahlia, and

zelflame promptly screamed/laughed/had tons of fun and probably scared all the other patrons at that restaurant.

Then we popped over to get some spontaneous ice cream while we walked around in a square and talked/hummed songs/made random Arashi "in-jokes". I love those.

And then off we went to Karaoke

I managed to yoink one of the 失敗 Nino heads and it had tape on it, so I thought Nino shouldn't miss this party and I stuck the Nino head in the middle of the Karaoke screen which proved to be quite lulzy when his head was perfectly aligned with an antelope's body, or some hula dancers, or tiny baby shirtless children ETC. ETC. ETC.

Oh... it's nights like those that you wish would never end.

On the plus side -- 5x10 DVD party in 2 DAYS! I just need to somehow survive work tomorrow without going apeshit crazy from anticipation. I have been trying oh so hard to not spoil myself with those pretty teasers people are posting up on
