a toothy grin

While Luka is away, the fangirl in me shifts to Ohno-kun...like always. Okay, maybe it should be the other way around, it's more of when the latter is away then the attention shifts entirely to the former :)

But before I carry on further - my mom dealt me a disappointing blow minutes ago. Apparently, as much as she understands her daughter's affection for Arashi and how she doesn't mind watching said group's goofy antics, she doesn't think they dance very well and Kimura Takuya is much more better than all five of them, even though she has no clue who the latter is. My reaction? Naturally, a whine and a quick defensive statement, but she didn't budge on her opinion so that leaves me to somehow convince her one way or another - even if it means getting her to watch said group's concert DVD :) My mom's accepting with stuff like this, which really - only encourages me more with the fandom, while my dad doesn't mind me, and my brother, he absolutely humors me. Point in case, when I skipped into his room with Arashi's new single and DVD, he sat there, listening as I pointed them out to him and he good-naturedly pointed out the difference in their looks from the previous. Needless to say, I was pleased to be humored :) I am still amazed my brother can very much differentiate Ohno Satoshi on a magazine cover - although he referred to said guy as the 'bugger with the crazy grin', something along those lines.

So, bringing me to the point of the very same guy and his grin:

His teeth, both upper and lower is way out of place, in and out, sharp and odd, but for some reason, it makes me smile so much.


And to be honest, throughout the years, it has never really changed. The upper ones were straightened a bit more but his lower set of teeth, at the left side, there's one that's obviously edging out in an odd manner. Strangely, it doesn't bother me at all. Cause when he grins, it shows and it's disarmingly charming, it really is.

It's the one trait that I found myself to be incredibly drawn to when it comes to him. He's not the exact definition of incredibly gorgeous, and some would pass him off as a typical boy-next-door, but he has his own set of boyish charms (even at the age of 28!) and that's complete enough. It's funny when I think of it that people often comment how much my name reflects myself - the whole smile part of my name's meaning, but when I look at it again, I think it not only reflects myself, but what I love as well. It's infectious and somehow, no matter how incredibly horrible a day or things can come to be, just that friendly curve of the lips is simply fulfilling. From a kid, a friend, a mentor, a parent, a sibling, a stranger, or Ohno :)

Apart from the sappy cheesiness, here's a moment of spazzing over how boyishly cute the guys were at the age of 16-19 when their second single, 'Sunrise Nippon' was released:


*Ninomiya-kun's epitomizes Peter Pan. He hardly ages in his features...









And simply because I found this image below rather charming:
