Kawaii~~~ XD

I like the way the “タッキー＆Lucky 命(LOVE)” sticks out hahahaha~

Grammar: 95/100, Listening: 87/100, Vocab: 193/200. Total: 375/400
Slightly lesser than last year’s but I’m really really happy~ :D:D:D:D

Thanks to Tono for giving me the motivation haha~ I think the last minute mugging really helped. And although I scored a point lesser than the previous year’s for Listening, I’m happier coz this time it wasn’t by ‘luck’ haha XD Now I’m not so sure if I can take JLPT2 this year. It’s like such a huge difference between levels 3 & 2 ne. Maybe I should buy some study books or something to see how the standard is for level 2 first… then decide if I want to take it this year or not.

• Takizawa Enbujo’08 DVD sold 12,425 copies in its first week.
• Seems like the press conference for Takizawa Enbujo’09 has taken place/is taking place this afternoon. There might be coverage on WS tonight or tomorrow morning.
• Seems like Takki has dyed his hair black :)
• Itoh Atsushi (Kisanta) was on Utaban last night. He talked about Takki and himself doing the “Matsuken Samba” at Matsudaira Ken’s (Benkei) place. Takki’s photo was shown.
• There is a stage report on Takizawa Kakumei Senshuuraku in the April 2009 issue of Look at Star (release date: 27 Feb 2009).
• There is a rumour that Takki will be the main lead in a new drama series starting April, on NTV, at 9pm on Saturdays. Not sure how true this is… coz there’s Enbujo in April too… If it’s true, how’s he going to manage butai and drama, I don’t know…
• T&T calender 2009-2010 will be released tomorrow. WS on 25 Feb showed sneaks of the calender and the LOVE Q&A Book.
