Yup. Thats right. It's official. I have grown. I am now a whole 151 cm! No no, theres no need to congratulate me I...Oh..wait..This is a Hello Project based blog. OK...Moving on...It's been almost a year since I discovered the world that is Hello! Project. In the past year I have started to build up a collection of H!P goodies. Now don't get me wrong, it's not near as good as other fans but I think for my first year of H!P fandom I have done quite well. To commerate almost a year I'm going to post my collection so far and make a note of what I'd like to get in the future. Sorry for the craptastic photos, I am in no way shape or form the world's best photographer.

First's things first: The first merchandise I ever bought. It's strange when I was starting to get into H!P I always thought I would start of with a CD, but somehow, I ended up buying this accidently instead. I say accidently as I was browsing through ebay and clicked on 'buy it now' when I wasn't concentrating :/ No harm done though as I got this awesome wristband out of my silly mistake :D Maybe I'll start of a collection of wristbands from H!P tours as it sounds like something fun to collect XD.

 

Next we have the next 2 CD's I bought. The Berryz album I bought just after the wristband (although it actually arrived first) and I preordered the C-ute single after watching the video many times. I was actually suprised by myself ordering this single as even before H!P I had only bought one single previously as I tend to buy the albums instead. However, thanks to this C-ute single, I has realised how silly I am for not buying both the single's and albums when they can be afforded. Both of the CD's are limited edition.

 

 

Finally, we have the the stuff I got for christmas and what a collection! I was quite suprised when a parcel arrived and it was filled with H!P goodies! This year I was hoping for a white christmas and although it didn't snow my chirstmas presents were Berryz related. :D Well, we have W & Berryz High score 2005, Natsu Natsu!-Anata wo Suki ni naru Sangensoku 2006, Sakura Mankai 2007, and their latest DVD, Welcome! Berryz Kuuyden. At the moment I've only managed to watch the W & Berryz concert as the parcel arrived just before school started and I've been slightly busy with exams to watch the others, but hopefully I'll get a chance soon.

 

 

As well as Berryz DVDs, I also got 3 Hello! Project concerts; 2006 summer, 2007 winter and 2007 summer, and the Morning Musume all singles complete 10th anniversary DVD which was the first item to enter my DVD player and after watching every PV back to back you can really see the changes Momusu have been through. Their music styles, line ups etc. My dad walked in to my room when Go Girl Koi no Victory started. He took one look at the TV called me weird and walked back out again. I think it's going to take a while for J-pop to grow on him.

 

Now for the CD's I got; Berryz Koubou - Tsukiattrononi kataomoi (limited ed.), Mini Moni songs 2, Morning Musume All Singles complete (regular ed.), Morning Musume - Mikan (limited ed. B), Petit Best 8 and W - double U&U. Although it's not Hello Project, News single weeeek also managed to find its way into the photo. Out of all the CD's Mini Moni's album is probably the most played. I love the first half of the album which are mainly R&B style tracks. And thats not all. The album also came with a poster which is currently hanging proudly on my wall :D

 

The last H!P gift I recieved was rather suprising, It was the Welcome Berryz Kyuden photobook, Now looking at the girls in bikini's don't really suit my taste so I've never really thought about getting a solo member's photobok before. Yet when I opened the parcel I was curious about this product so I looked and Oh my! It's full of funny and cute (but mainly funny) pictures of the girls. I would scan some but I'm not sure if photobooks are scanner friendly. Yet here is a picture from this photobook I found on the web.

 

Now imagine a book filled with hilarous pictures like that. Cool isn't it?

Wow, looking back over my H!P collection I've only just realised how much I've got. I've only been collecting since July too! Perhaps 2008 will see this collection double in size. As you can tell, my collection is seriously deprived of MoMusu concerts. In this year I'm hoping to get round to buying Odore! Morning Curry as I ahve heard this is one of their best concerts, and also their latest tour with my current favourite member, JunJun. Another must for 2008 is more JunJun merchandise. It's just sitting on the webpages waiting for me to buy and I know I'll probably not be able to resist. So have you got any concert's or DVD's or whatever to recommened? If so then feel free to tell me and maybe I'll look into buying it in the near future.

 

P.S You may notice that this blog post is slightly longer than others and that there is less grammer mistakes than the others (although there is bound to to be some lol). This is because this is the first post that has actually took more than a day to write. Normally I just write off the top of my head and don't bother to spell check or anything and it really annoys me (and others no doubt) when I read back through and I have made stupid little errors. I think in 2008 I will also take more care whilst writing in my blog so as not to annoy myself with those mistakes.

Also I'd like to wish a happy belated birthday to Aika, Rika and Mari, whose birthdays were on the 12th, 19th and the 20th of January. Hope they had a great birthday!
