I am so majorly excited! =D It's that time again guys! Johnnys calendars! I cannot wait. They look amazing. I had ordered my calendars (I've ordered 4, I know, omfg, right) a couple of weeks ago when Taka-san emailed me kanga's prices. Which are cheaper than I can get even on Yesasia with free shipping, so I've ordered via kanga. I can wait the extra week or two. :D Thank you to ihearyourtears for breaking the news about the vids to me (albeit unintentionally ;D)!

ETA: I should add that I'm not really paying for the 4 I ordered. I've conned by cousin into getting them for me. My cousin is buying them for me as an early birthday pressie. ^_^

Things that I am happy about:
♥ KAT-TUN's calendar comes in a jewelry box. How awesome is that. The set gives me major vibes of Arashi's Happiness PV, and its fun and as ihearyourtears said, relaxed and I think it looks wonderful. ^_^
♥ Lol, Eito's is in a confectionery box. That sorta fits, somehow. Eito's theme is an Adults School Field Trip. Informal shots of them travelling, at an onsen. I particularly loved the shot of them gathered around in their futons and Ryo was all bundled up in his blankets.
♥ Bright pink box for NEWS. Hahaha. Totally unexpected and oh-so-gay. The pics look amazing though.
♥ Arashi has TWO 'calendars'. Diary style and hang up style. The pics are really artistic.. and I think there's lots of skin. XD Not complaining, obviously. Hahah plus shiny sparkly stickers. My head is exploding at nekkidcowboy!Sho as a kira kira sticker. Just..jgdalg;

To be honest, for the last two months, probably from my hiatus and then the trip, I've become a bit uhm.. lukewarm towards JE. I think I was drifting a bit further away from it. Because I -did- manage to go two months without it, and it didn't affect me as badly as I thought it would've. I mean I used to itch to flist every day. Watching the boys in any show still interest me, it still entertained me, but I lost that sort of excitement I used to have. I think because it's become habit. And with lveaddkt on holiday, I don't have anyone to pull me into it. I honestly thought that I was about to leave this wonderful fandom.

But, with the release of the calendars, I feel that excitement I once had. It's been a while since I've squeeled. ^_^ I remember my first calendars (this year is my 3rd) and the excitement of gawking at the weird ass 'calendars' with the pretty shoots. That was only about 2 months into the fandom, it was lots of fun. Haha, now I have more RL fangirls to squeel with, I'm hoping to try not to lose what I first felt in the fandom. I'm slated to catch up with lveaddkt and breakfast_kiss on Saturday, so hopefully that helps.

I just found an insane spazz post about last years calendar here. I think I may have been on something. :D But if I can even regain HALF of that enthusiasm, I shall be happy. ^^;
