Standing in press line with tenkei & boykun. Waiting for Chase Wang to escort us to our pit. No other updates from me, will post recaps later after concert.

Hoping for a good show.

Damn it! I'm so jealous of you press now. I was at the panel, in the concert, in the meet and greet twice... but couldn't take any pictures :angry: Can you upload the full res of those pictures you have? I'm eternally grateful :bow: :bow: I love Tomomi so much. The moment she stepped into the room for the panel, it's like a goddess just descended. Well, they're all gorgeous, but I think Tomomi stole the panel. I just kept looking at her, and in the meet and greet I was lucky enough to sit almost directly face to face with Tomomi even I'm in second row. Everytime her eyes meet mine, my heart pounded so fast. I mean, she's always been my favorite, but Tomomi in real life is 10x better. Haruna is so small, she's cute. I regretted that I didn't bring any gift for them. I think I actually had a perfect gift for their 2nd visit, but somehow I didn't bring it when I packed my stuffs to CA.
Again, please upload the full-res pics. I'm dying to see Tomomi as I saw her that day. :bow:
-
Without taking anything away, I think Haruna is a wonderful person too. She's so quiet. Love it when she said she wanted to eat good food in the US. I actually looking back and forth between Haruna and Tomomi, with Rina in between. Mami didn't get enough love from me :(

All the cups mysteriously disappeared after we left the room. I have no idea what happened to them. 8)2 Anyway, for those who want full-res pics I'll be zipping them up in one package soon. Keep it locked here for link.
-
OpsMonkey, I hope you don't forget zipping the SCANDAL hi-res pics :nervous I have a few from various sources, but haven't seen those from your facebook yet. Please :bow: :bow: :bow:
-
I didn't forget, just clearing out the blurry pics & doing some clean up work in photoshop. :)
