That's me alright ChrNo
They cut me off screaming "ChrNoooo!!" as soon as Miyabi stepped in! I said it before jphipppp! and tama-sama when I saw Momo lol...here's the video I took:
Opening of Q&A, screamed as much. got Tris-chan to ask one of our questions (words) the movie one, and brought the madness to them WU-TANG!
but yeah so autographs went well, everyone got theirs and it was smoothly done. LOL getting an extra ticket for wota, I put on my jacket and hat and still Japanfiles Dave was "You again?" lol...we hung back at the autograph line and even tho they were kicking us out for loitering, we got Risako's attention lol, me doing this daigong shuffle and she peeking over.
Concert Day was pretty crazy too, there was NO WHERE to line up in advance until like an hour before, so we end up being loiterers around the area...lotsa frustration but it was all good when they laid out the Wota List and we managed to get front and centre...
After Berryz Concert so much energy! It was surreal, the Wota Parade and at the end there, just mugging for the webcam thing they had. BERRYZ PSHYCHO! OI! OI! OI!
Autograph Session! word on the streets, people were lining up already and I just woke up at noon so alo, Ops, rokun, and Rick got in the non-priority line and I chilled with Tris with our tickets...got everyone to sign the book of messages we signed. These were the gifts I managed to give them. JPH!P T-shirts and swag. Went there to rep and rep
my message to ChrNo as I babbled in Cantonese lol
Managed to get a whole bunch of other fans to sign at the last moment, incl. PomPom who was shaking as she was finished...then BLAM it's Tris, me, and Terrie (who brought a bunch of flowers for Chinami SURPRISE) when I got up there, I showed UF Prez the book and she was like "Fuck Yeah" and Momo was all "Hi Thank you" and i flashed the pinky, I was slamming jphip shirts at em, showing em the message book where they were featured, Yurina was like "Thanks" at words comic, hi5'd Socko, then at Miyabi I was like showed her ChrNo's page and gave her a photo I had of ChrNo pimpin Evil Super Villain and told her she was her biggest fan from France and she was like aaww thanks, went like sup Chinami and Maasa and showed em the Harry Potter page and they were Like DAAMN son and i was like shit forgot to give miyabi a shirt so u hook her up and gave em shirts too, then at BOOM Captain, was like this is the messages from international fans blah blah. And she was blown away, Bald Guy from the past H!P Events was all laughing and shit even as I was like fumbling with the photos. YEAH I was nervous cuz shit Captain was so tanned. So as I'm rolling out I'm like flipping her a jphip sign and I show her to proper way to do it: take the heart and FLIP it UPSIDE DOWN.
That's how we do. Pimping JPHiP and our HiPstaz to a super girl group from Japan: Berryz Kobo
One of the cameraman with a giant HD Camera filmed and interviewed me and Tris and we shit talked. He was real nice, hi5ing and like one of the fellow wotas.
Captain came out for the drawing and lol whatever didn't hear what she was saying, just mugging for the camera and we chased her to the back door and got her to wave. Fucking nice as hell they all are.
Closing Ceremonies, they came and presented the box of donations they collected! GJ everybody! The Chairman, Stark so overwhelmed aww <3
After we went to Cheesecake Factory and laughed at Canucks fans at the bar. Later, got the tip that they were at the airport because Terrie and friends saw them at Rocky Mountain Chocolate store around 7 - 7:30 pm (while we assumed Cheesecake Factory then went to Ops hotel to ustream)
so next morning we went to send people off, and met a lot of fans again but their plane was leaving soon (incl. Ops) but with Rick on the giant bus look out BLAMMO!! there came a big blue bus and Berryz was chillin. Miyabi was so energetic, with a Minnie mouse doll, bouncing around
lol we got stopped (well just me xD) by their handlers to stop filming and even got a badass dude to be like frontin LOL wish I took his pic but I was too busy filming this:
DDL http://www.twitter.com/?d=9TDBUVPWThey walked by and we got their attention and they waved. Maasa had a long purple flowery skirt, Miyabi hair up, tan trench coat, grey knee high socks, Yurina - tan coat, Captain - black greenish coat flowery black purple skirt, Risako - black coat, short shorts!?!??! couldn't see momo too well
Then they were at the Delta counter "special unclosed" one for the longest time getting shit sorted and they started going into song!! WHOA imprompto concert.
Then like in proper order, walked by us and we politely waved and thank you'd off to the security area but stood back gathering stuff. Terrie had to leave too, gave her a giant hug and waved, lol they prolly thought we was waving at em. Then as they walked to the security check line, me, alo, Rick did a final g'bye flying jumping jack style and thnk it made em ROFFLe, couldn't see lol
Watched em go in. think Yurina or Maasa waved back, Captain dropped something and bent over.
Great to see everyone, the power and the energy was like AX and Sakura Cons 2009 rolled into one times a billion! Everyone united. The Japanese fans were enormous. Big ups to Terrie and Dasuke (the man with the Momo glasses and Glittery shirt)
