Reading 6 pages all at once ain't funny at all

. I read you and TH's talk and lemme bring up another story. Back in 2001 or 2002, my brother use LOVEppears as his class presentation (in elementary school...@@). Most of his classmates didn't believe that ayu was a Japanese at all. They all think ayu as a western. Ayu has always been using Western image since LOVEppears I think. Of course I think she looked like western the most during the end of 2002. No, she didn't have any single cover portraying as a western, but her image after during releasing Voyage --> the end of the year was totally a wetern... Platinum hair color, the make up.. etc.

Ayu is no stranger to risque photoshoots [tasteful ones]~

Your forgot the I am... cover with only leaves cover her body... LOL
Back to the topic.. Today I was mad that I didn't order CD+DVD (deluxe YOU version) when I saw the cover (newspaper version). cdjapan still had the deluxe Depend on you, but I didn't order.. cuz I dun like Depend on you
Now I see the cover... Well I still dun like Depend on you, but I love that side shot cover, so I ordered it in the end..
And this will be my first ayu single ever..

(kinda embarrassed to say that... Have been her fan for 9 years but I never owned a single...

)
