hello my loves!! hope everyone had a great weekend!!

tomorrow is Monday and i'm off to work again >_____<
anyway, i'm doing another gfx update!!
this time it's the solos arashi wallpapers i promised last week!!
but before i present it to all of you, i'll do a bit of ranting.
(if you wish to skip the rant, please scroll down!!)

something made me very happy this week
my 2NE1 mini album is finally here!! it took so long for me to get it XD
(yes, my caption does not really make sense but it's funny!!)
i was thinking of scanning & sharing the images but so many people already did.
ah, i really adore the girls!! Specially DARA cause she's so cute & funny!!


====================================================

moving on to the pix below.
yep...food again...not a lot though, just a few.

here's some pizza while we're at it. i always get a craving for pizza once a week. i had it twice this week though cause my boss treated us to a pizza lunch at an italian restaurant downtown last friday. i always want mushrooms and pineapples on mine XD

the monstrosity below is something i made.
this is what happens when you only have pasta sauce and bacon.
it turned out pretty yummy still ^^


the pic below is something that i can cook and be proud of!!
it tastes really yummy ^________^ even my younger sis likes it!!
it doesn't have a name cause i just made it during one lazy day.
(yes, i love mushrooms!! just in case you we're wondering.)


ah, more foodies below of what i had for lunch recently from little tokyo.
i forgot the name of the restaurant XD it's on the third floor of "sakura mall"
next to "hana ichimonme" another place i've eaten at a few times.
i basically drop by there cause there's usually not that much people XD
i just laze around eating some raw tuna and nattou or some onigiri's
then wash it down with some hot sake >________<

ah, that's all i'm sharing this time (see, that wasn't too bad!!)
i'm too lazy to get the pix from my cell XD

ooh...before i forget, i 'm getting the ARASHI "all the best" LE!! i thought i wouldn't be able to order the LE because i coudn't find it anywhere online. thank god for kinokuniya!! they've made me one very happy arashi fangirl :] (*throw sparkles all over and does a little dance*)

====================================================

and now, to the moment you've been waiting for
(hahaha XD that sounded kinda funny!!)
well, it's the solo arashi wallpapers!! let me know what you guys think.
click the thumbnails to full view/download/save!!
also, do not copy modify or steal!!
*if you want to make it into a header or something, let me know & i'll do it for you!!*
another thing, if you need different sizes please leave a comment below and i'll re-size them for you!! i really should have made them in different sizes but i forgot XD

anyway, here's the stuff!!
remember that comments are love :]

1 2 3

we're starting with riida's cause i finished his first!! my personal fave is #1, it looks like he's flying!! i tried put to a lot of empty space for those people who have tons of stuff on their desktop!! hopefully this works out.

1 2 3

ya for nino!! yes, the third one is kinda like the 2NE1 wallies i made from last weeks post XD it was inspired by those wallpapers and #3 is my fave btw. i like #2 a lot too because nino's eyes looks so pretty!! for #2, there's not much going on cause i think it looks good enough as it is. (to meredith: *my bff who stalks my LJ* you've been waiting for the nino goodies, hope you enjoy them!! let's start planning our holiday trip soon!!)

ooh, it's matsumoto-sama!! i like the fourth one a lot cause the colors are bright and fun. i'm a little disappointed though cause the quality wasn't so great after i saved it. it was totally my fault though cause i accidentally saved it in MQ then i closed the psd without saving it XD but please check it out because it's still pretty great i think.

my ichiban!! the most gorgeous living and breathing creature in the entire universe!! (yup, i do this all the time when it comes to sho-kun. i finally succeeded in making a five minute wallpaper!! it's the blue one at #1 and it's a fave of mine!! the picture was beautifully taken so i didn't really do anything much to it. i just added 3 textures, changed his eye color and added the text. i'm currently using this as my wallpaper and everytime i close my windows and stuff, i just have to stare at it for a good 2 minutes XD #3 & #4 are pretty similar but with a different concept. #4 is a bit gory with blood and stuff. hope you guys like them!!

1 2 3

out of all the wallpapers i made this weekend, the aiba-chan one's i think are the prettiest :] #1 & #2 have a kinda similar feel and they sort of go together (yup, the idea for "angel aiba" came from my "angel shige" wallpaper, very easy to make too since it just took about 10 minutes!!) #3 is pretty sweet with donuts and stuff. i made sure there's enough space for icons btw. i also kind of modified the colors of aiba-chan's clothes to match with the rest of the stuff XD

that's it from me!! hope you guys enjoy them!!
i will update again soon. maybe the NEWS and Kat-Tun stuff will be up soon (not sure because i don't remember where i saved it XD) and 2NE1 solo's too since it's getting requested a lot. i also plan to make new icons to use as userpix on my LJ. maybe some headers and some "friends only" banner.

a few of my online buds told me to make my LJ "friends only" but i don't know if i'll go through with it. it'll be great if you guys can tell me if i should or if i shouldn't. i'm pretty much still an LJ noob (and LJ cuts still don't like me -________-*) -- i'll go off now, it's getting pretty late and i still have work tomorrow!! please use the tags on the right to view my other graphics!! hope that everyone will have a great week ahead. comments and credits are love and are very well appreciated!!

Waaa, they are sooo cool... ^^
It's such a waste they don't fit my screen ;(
I guess 15"6' sn't normal...
But great job ^3^

[szani.livejournal.com]

I just noticed you offered to resize them (I'm such a baka sometimes ^^).
If you could do it for me I'd be soooo happy ^^(Summer version of Aiba-chan's just perfect <3~~)
(Me screen: 1366/786pix)
I always admire people who have talent to do this kind of things...
*throwing confetti and sending kisses to you*

[elitejean.livejournal.com]

thank you hun!! glad that they appeal to you :]
i've received the same comment from other people.
they want to use them but the size doesn't fit their screen XD

i can go ahead and re-size them for you.
which one would you like?? do you mean aiba #3??

[(Anonymous)]

Yep, that's the one I mean :)
Thaaank you so much *kisses and hugs* <3~~

[szani.livejournal.com]

Sorry, I forgot to log in =='
I realy spend to much time watching Aiba-chan xD His cute bakaness influences me xD

[elitejean.livejournal.com]

aiba-chan its too darn adorable for his own good XD
but that's what i love about the guy ^______________^

now sho-kun is a really smart guy but when he's with the other 4 he get's really really baka too even more than the others sometimes!! and his adorable-ness just about kills me XD the guy is fantastic when it comes to failing...it's starting to make me wonder...

[szani.livejournal.com]

Sho-chan was always my ichiban because he connects being smart and being fun ^^ I always admired the way he gives all he has during his work. He's also cool enough to turn his disabilities into funny things. If I were to meet him, I'd like him to teach me this things. The fact that he's so handsome adds the fuel to the fire ^^
Aiba-chan's way too cute ^^ And I like to see him working with Sho. They create a realy good working tandem <3~~
(Sory for my grammar and spelling mistakes but English's not my mother tongue... Unfortunately)

[elitejean.livejournal.com]

it's no big deal hun!! beasides your english is pretty good XD
i'm happy that it's Friday!! i can wake up late tomorrow!!

i've always been a sho-kun fan too!!
if there are jun-baited fans then i am a sho-baited fan XD
he seems like such a nice guy!! he rides with the other members.
he's also always up for anything which is really funny!!
and yes, his gorgeousness adds fuel to the fire!!

some friends of mine who have seen arashi in person say that even though they have a different ichiban, they found sho-kun to be the most handsome one in arashi in person. now after hearing that, it makes me want to see him in person more ^^

i hope that sho-kun will have another drama soon
he's such s great actor too!! he got so much better!!

I guess I don't have big problems while communicating with someone but I still do laugh at the things I've written after reading them xD Sometimes I can't understand myself ^^ And some tenses still confuse me... But I don't have enough confidence to start my own journal. People probably wouldn't understand what I want to say... T___T And wiriting in my own language is meaningless. Who would read it?

I agree! It's sooo nice to talk with someone who doesn't think Jun's a god or something :P I do like him but his not the best one. I often visit forums in my mother tounge (which is Polish) and all the girls always try to make me love Jun. I'm gettin' a bit tired of it...

Sho's totally cute, isn't he? xD All my friends laugh at me because they think he looks like a girl (OMG, NO BLOODY WAY! He's a sweetie <3). 'Guess that's because Polish men have stronger facial features.
Waaaah, I envy your friends soooo much <3 I'd die if I were able to see him... I'd probably scream loud enough to lose my voice for next three moths xD But still, I'd like him to notice the serious side of me... Maybe he would consider being my friend (or more xDD). God, what am I talking about?? xD

Yep! WE WANT ANOTHER DRAMA! ^____^

[elitejean.livejournal.com]

i don't understand myself half the time XD but writing a blog is pretty fun too, even if no one reads it cause you can look back and read things that happened to you in the past. i guess, it's like doing a reflection...

also, if you write, i will read it!!

somehow without noticing, i have talked to you everyday for this entire week!! i'm really glad you dropped by my LJ because if you didn't we wouldn't be talking like this now :]

it's nice talking to you too hun!! jun is a pretty boy, that's something that i won't deny but to my eyes (and your's too) sho-kun is the most gorgeous man alive ever!! it's not just because sho-kun is handsome but also because he is funny and smart and he fails a lot and all those other little things that make him so cute in my eyes!! i have friends who were jun fans for a year or two, now they became sho, ohno, nino or aiba fans XD

also, if you're gonna fantasize about sho-chan...you might as well make it as ridiculous as you want. after all, we don't know if it can ever become reality!! we're fangirls and all we can do is dream and love our ichiban!!

[szani.livejournal.com]

The problem is that I'm hopeless when it comes to graphics. I'd like my blog to look nice and be somehow connected to Arasho but I can't imagine myself trying to create a layout... :/ I am sooo untalented T_____________T
I usually don't leave comments while visiting someone's blog but I am so happy I made an exception ^_^ I am also very glad to be able to talk to you :) *kisses and hugs*
My friends are... werid. I mean, they do accpet my craziness but they do not want to be involved. I'd like to have someone to watch (for example) VS Arashi with, and screem or squeek all the time T__T
On the other hand, my classmates are positive I lost my mind. They're quite sure I am interested in China and I'm tired of explaining that it's JAPAN AND IT MAKES A BID DIFFERENCE! oh, whatever... ^^
I like Jun's style of actiong. He's pretty good at hiding his true self in favour of the character he plays. There aren't many people who can do it ^^
Sho-chan's fails are the best ^^ His backflips never fail to make me laugh! XD He's pretty silly and seeing him having fun makes me warm inside :) He should enjoy his life. It's soo good after all.
Last month I tried to collect a bit of information about other JE groups but I can't seem to be drawn to them. Arashi's my greates love <333
I would like to have their original CD but they don't sell it anywhere in my country!! ;( I tried to do so in Germany but they told me they've never heard about Arashi before... T_____T

[elitejean.livejournal.com]

hello again!! it's saturday morning here!!

well, i don't know how to make layouts. there's only one layout i know how to modify. the name of the layout is "flexible squares" and i only know how to change the background and add a header. if you want, i can make an LJ header for you.

you should corrupt those friends of yours and turn them into arashi fangirls. the first time i came across arashi, i didn't fangirl them right away. it took me another year or two and the song "we can make it" for me to finally realize how adorkable they are. if we ever meet, i'll flai with you...LOL!!

about that China thing, you're not the only one. here in the US when you say you're asian, most people automatically assume that you are from china XD i get it all the time and i always end up saying "do i look chinese to you?" it's probably because china is a big country and almost everything in the world is "made in china" except for the 5 wonderfully handsome men in arashi who are "born and made in japan"

i have other groups that i like as well but arashi is my ichiban, actually, not that many online friends of mine knew about my arashi opbssession at first because i never made graphics for them til now XD the only reason i didn't is because i did not have time because i always work on requests but after making my first arashi wallpaper, a lot of the other fangirls wanted to see more that's why i made the solo wallies.

did you try ordering the CD online?? it will take a bit of time but you'll get it for sure. also, try the asian markets there...they might know of a place there where you can buy them. i want to get some of arashi's concert goods XD

[szani.livejournal.com]

In my country Saturday's already ending xD It's nearly 8pm now.
I don't want to trouble you. You're probably busy enough :) But if you have some free time, I'd be very happy to use your works. You're soooo good at it <33 :)
I'm trying! But everytime I show my friend something connected to Arashi (like pv or show) she changes topic and starts talking about anime (she's a big fan of "Hetalia" series)... My best friend watches the clips I show her but her comments are quite laconic. ("oh, it's nice" or " I like it") Sometimes she adds something about Jun (yeah, Jun, Jun, Jun...) and that's it ;(
Japan's still an exotic country for Poles. They'll probably never see the difference between Japan and China. BUT! There're a lot of young people who seem to be interested in it! I took a test (about 6 months ago) from Japanese language. It's purpose was to find 3 people who know it well enough to spend summer holidays in Japan (I didn't stand a chance... 60 people who have been studying Japanese for years and me... a beginner, no matter how you look at it xD But it was fun :) I was able to check my level and be proud of myself. I got around 3/4 of all points, but I've been learning Japanese for less than a year.) I was surprised to see so many people there. The were all under 17. I hope it means that Poles' image of Asian countries will change from "unknown" to "inetresting".
I sometimes listen to NEWS or KAT-TUN. But I like only a few of their songs ^^
I tried but you need to have PayPal and no matter how long I ask my mum to have it, she always refuses... ;( I even found some inetresting offers. But talking to her is like talking to a wall...
I'd like to live in America... ;( Europe's soooo far behind...

hello!!i finally re-sized it!!
i'm sorry it took a long time.
i usually only photoshop during the weekend
here's the link to it:
http://i332.photobucket.com/albums/m322/elitejean/forszani.jpg

hun, if you need graphics..let me know!!
i'm the right man for that job...err, i mean woman XD
i just changed my user info earlier today.
it's something funky i guess XD
i also finally worked on new userpics!!
check out my new icon (points up)
*ah, sho-chan loves you too!!*
the other icons are posted on my LJ too!!

i'm a little lucky that we managed to convert mom into an arashi fangirl. when i told her about the LE she immediately wanted to know when we're getting it XD talk about her being so excited over it!!

i'm proud of you!! you did a great job on that test!!
you'll keep improving...i'm sure of it!!
you most likely understand more than me too.

my sister is trying to learn japanese on her own so she understands most of the stuff. i wish i can learn to read and write it too!!

i listened to a lot of jpop before i even knew that there's an awesome group of 5 dangerously gorgeous men called "arashi" who act like dorks all the time XD but out of all the others, i really got into them. that's because other than giving me awesome tunes to listen to, they make me happy with the stupid things they do XD it makes my heart get all fluttery *jean makes a mess again by throwing some paper hearts!!*

most of my friends are into k-pop right now
they're starting to get into jpop though...
i shall influence them XD

PS: it would be fun & funny if we ended up in japan together XD
