As in, I've been so busy over the holidays that I haven't posted much. orz So happy holidays and happy New Year and all that, although it's late. xD

Working retail, ugh, if I didn't already have reasons I wanted to be in a different job by holiday time this year, the Christmas rush would've sealed it. Ah well, I've worked Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve, and I've heard that means I can handle the worst of it. I was scheduled 5 days in a row up to Christmas Eve, and before knowing that I agreed to come in the day before and ended up working 6 days in a row. And that was the second time I accidentally worked 6 days in a row because of agreeing to pick up an extra shift.

The Christmas present I got this year that I'm most excited about is a Nintendo 2DS. I bought Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask, although I haven't played it much yet because there are some DS games I never got around to playing that I'm working on. I'm going to lock this post, so I'll put up my friend code if anyone wants it: 4441-9908-0553. It'll help if you comment or pm me when you add me so I can know who you are. ^^

I also got to visit my brother's house the weekend after Christmas. That was a lot of fun although I ended up calling off from work for the first time because of it. Oh well.

I guess my biggest New Year's excitement was Johnny's WEST 4's debut announcement. \(^_^)/ I've been waiting for it, a Kansai group debut. After that rumor last year that there'd be a Kansai group debuting with 7-8 members, a four member group wasn't at all what I was expecting. And it's sad about 7 WEST, but honestly, I haven't been a Kansai Jr. fan for very long and I'm probably not as attached to them as other fans might be. I was kind of expecting them to throw together BAD and 7 WEST (all of them) and maybe add an older Kansai Jr. or two, but I was also half expecting them to pass over BAD too and throw together 7 WEST and Kin Kan or something. So I'm mostly glad that with BAD, most of my favorites from the Kansai Jrs. are there and that there actually will be a Kansai debut this year.

Watching You Conte Shichaina yo was also really fun. I laughed so much and the BL Gakuen thing was so hilarious. I also really loved the Hanseizawa Naoki konto and the Barter konto. xD Miyacchi really does look so much like Sakai Masato. I'd be really happy if they could work together in something someday. The only segment I didn't really get was the idol tryout one. :/ But the rest of it was really good. I hope they do it again. I also watched Johnny's Countdown. I thought it was really good this year, even though they had fewer groups there. I liked that they still sung a lot of senpai songs. Overall it seemed a lot smoother than last year's. Last year, it seemed that there were some people who blamed the vtrs and relays, but I thought the biggest problem was them not knowing how to film last year's set in a way that looked good on tv. The set this year was a lot simpler.
