Dear Jun

You were the culprit.

You made me lose so much of my money and so much of my time!

Yet, you're someone I hate to hate.

You made me forget the "OMG **me has plucked eyebrows and is super skinny! GAYNESS!!!" which I attached to most JE artistes.

You baited me into JE, into Arashi, into Jpop.

And even though I've been into phases where I grew to like the other four more and more (sometimes even more than I do you) - Nino after IwoJima, Aiba after 24hr tv, Sho after a fanfic and Ohno after knowing of his artistic talents - you've always remained somehow there. And usually, you'll oevrpower everyone else to reclaim your place as ichiban (esp after a Gokusen episode).

Seeing you is like seeing myself in the mirror, we're quite alike in character, maybe because of our close birthdays.

So, happy birthday my dear.

Continue being the gentle one behind the DoS front. Continue with your serious attitude towards work. Continue doing weird yet Jun-like youthful and playful stuff during concerts. Continue being humble and win over the hearts of your senpais. Continue churning out new works for me to stare at before the tv.

Ganbatte!!
