I totally didn't realize it was already time for this post: from last season I'm just starting to watch something (1 drama, the one with Yoshitaka Yuriko) now because before there were no subs, so I had no idea spring dramas have been over for a while XD
This season, as you can see from my choices, I am in need for some romantic/shoujo shit. Don't ask me why, I don't know XD

That's... a lot of stuff. But I'll probably watch half of it either because they end up being no good or, more easily, because they won't get subbed XD

I have to say, I'm not really excited about anything from this season. In case, it will be a good chance for catching up on old stuff~

I've been meaning to write something about Arashi for a while, since 2019 is my 10th year of being their fan.
Of course, I had no idea I would have written it on the day they annouced an indefinite hiatus.

Nobody cares about the details, and my story is the story of many of us.
I stumbled into JE and, consequently, into Arashi, by total chance, on the summer before starting university. It wasn't an easy summer, for me, since a few things happened - nothing serious, but my heart was broken.
I perfectly remember moments when I was listening the few Arashi songs I had on my music player, the first I've ever listened to (my memory is shit but I still remember them: A.ra.shi, Believe, Crazy Moon, everything and season).
I had a little folder with some pvs and subbed snippets from their shows I got from youtube (you could still find something on youtube, and I still had no idea liveournal and subbing communities existed), and I watched them A LOT.
I remember watching Hanadan for the first time, or the exact day I started watching Maou. I remember starting My Girl and watching most of it on youtube on Sundays. I remember getting really emotional when the My Girl PV (the first single since I became a fan) came out. Or watching the Troublemaker one on repeat.
Those first times are of course the ones that are stuck into my memory the most. But I have 10 years of precious memories.
Arashi have been with me during the difficult years of university, and after that when my anxiety got worse because I thought I'd never find a job and saw no future for me. The've always been the safe place I could go back to, the good part of a bad day.
My life doesn't revolve around them, I have friends, things to do, I like other stuff too.
But they've been, they ARE so important, to me. They are like family, like some very close friends.
I don't know them, I'll probably never even see them live, but, still, I love them and wish the best for them. I want them to do whatever they want to do with their lives, to be happy, to have a family if they want it, to stay single if that's the path they choose for themselves.
I am sad about this hiatus, I'll spend the next 2 years crying whenever I see them and, from 2021, I'll be even sadder.
No matter what I'll do in the future or what kind of person I'm going to be, I will always miss them.
But can we really ask them for more, can we ask them to stay if they want to rest for a bit? We can't.
I hope that when they thank us, when they say they have recieved so much love, it's the actual truth.
I hope the good parts have always surpassed the bad ones.
Because they gave me, us, so much.

I love you, Arashi, and thank you.

Not really THAT excited about anything in particular, let's hope my picks prove me wrong!

Just some quick thoughts about the dramas I've watched this spring. It was overall a good season because, even if I didn't watch many things, they were all okay. At least I didn't drop anything! And there was one particular drama that I really, REALLY enojoyed.
