tomochin did update her blog recently,
and using google translate,
seems that she's well but worried.
and i believe that she's back in japan now
(i think they were in guam before?)


here's something that mach1neshop of H!O sent me to read:
clickie
it might not be the entire POV of everyone in japan
but it's really nice to read about after all the negative things
we hear everyday
it made me cry, but in a good way :)


-mikari

is tomo okay?

i'm happy to say YES
anhh of H!O said that all AKB, SKE, and SDN members are okay
from the horrifying earthquake & tsunami :/ 


i hope the rest of japan is alright too <3
