Hey, juz curious, which school are u frm? Cheryl Quek...I don't know her...
I don't know where the Inooki shop is...I do love the shop at Heeren though! Wish I had the cash to buy some stuff...:( Maybe I'll be able to afford the pics but...:(
Well, I actually know that someone on the fan forum I belong to actually received a reply from Nino!!! She's from the US, so maybe as a fan from a non-Asian country is quite rare...Lots of fans in Japan post up the replies they get frm their Johnny's idols...apparently, there are 2 kinds of replies u can get--copies of handwritten letters frm the idols, and personal, handwritten ones. If ppl do get a reply, it's usually around 3 months later...hey, they have thousands, maybe even millions of fans out there who write letters to them!!!
The JJrs do go to school! (Well, for those of schooling age that is). Firstly, in Japan schooling in compulsory up till high school so the younger Jrs like Ya-ya-yah, K.K.Kity, Kansai Jrs (not KanJani8, they're older) and ABC definitelt go to school. After senior high they may or may not decide to continue schooling. Some of the Jrs (Kazama Shunsuke, Keiichiro Koyama and a few others) did decide to go on to university!! Akiyama Jun of Musical Aacdemy graduated frm the uni last yr, while Sakurai Sho of Arashi is in Keio University!! (for the 1000th time, HE"S SO SMART!!!)think they do get mobbed by fans, Sho once said in an interview that he was pretty upset when fans mob him outside his school and call up his school wanting to speak to him etc, etc. But I think their friends wouldn't mob them, if they were true friends. Of course, there are probably bound to be some ppl who try to suck up to them cuz they're famous and everything, but it seems that they lead pretty normal school lives. Still, sometimes they miss school because of work, or miss work because of school etc etc, and their schedules are of course bound to be very busy.
In september Duet, Hasegawa Jun, Shunsuke kazama and Toma Ikuta revealed their daily shedules for that time period. Toma graduated frm senior high in April or so, but HaseJun is in the same school and level as YamaP! (Nino of Arashi graduated frm that school too) and Kazama's in university... at around 3 or 4pm they are dismissed frm school, take abt 1 hour to commute to the workplace(Johnny's office), and then it's stuff like rehearsals, interviews, photoshoots and maybe other lessons( if I'm not wrong some jrs take voice lessons and dance lessons). Everything ends at around 9pm, then they commute home, do their homework and sleep at around midnight.
here's the address to send fanletters to, no, Id don't have Aiba or Nino's addresses, all fanletters should be sent to Johnny's. The idols' privacy would be compromised if their actual home addresses were revealed wouldn't they?

I wish I could get a DVD player that plays VHS as well...I don't care if all the VHSes at Liang Court are purely Japanese...sigh...I'd try my best to understand........*weeps* But that's so hard to find!!! Especially since this demanding girl wants one that can play DVDs and VHS, and RECORD DVDS as well!!! (Even if there it one it'll probably be super expensive...:(
Going to Japan in November!...I'm going into every single Johnny's shop I can!! Shinjuku, Harajuku, Osaka, Kyoto....as long as I get the chance to go I WILL!!! ~crazy Johnny's fan alert!~ I think I'll get 1 or 2 CDs there, like Arashi's "Here We Go", cuz I'm such a spendthrift, I only get the Japanese version of their CDs cuz I just can't stand the Taiwan versions with their song titles in Chinese...and Jap editions tend to be kind of on the expensive side...cost more than twice the taiwan versions for albums, and at least $5 more for singles...
Ok, gotta sign off now...A Maths exam tml...
Oh, and Potato, Wink Up and Duet will also be out tml!!!!!!! *grins* can afford to sneak off to Kinokuniya for a while!
