haha, unfortunately my parents would never allow me to leave the country with a bunch of people they've never met when Im at this age... .wew.

Same here, 14 too, and I believe my parents won't allow me too unless I'm able to work out a miracle now, and gain their approval. I suggest you work on your studies now, after all most parents with children of these ages care a lot about grades, as though it's almost everything to them. After all they are very important...

grades are truly important up to a certain stage only... but whats more important is that you dont forgo your life in pure pursuit of studies... (not to suggest that you forgo your studies now of course) about convincing your parents to let you go, it depends on you alone.. we could only offer you guys advices..

getting a bit off-topic here... thats a good insight on the price of transferring.. ultimately it depends entirely on the rest if they want to change cities for sightseeing and of course, if our girls would go from one city to another... .happy.

Yeah that's true, my parents would say just focus on your studies. Oh well, I still have my whole life to live~I will visit Japan one day at least ^^ sucks I can't go with you guys though T_T

@320x200: I like the idea too, to visit SCANDAL-related places, especially Shiroten, we may just come across another band that we like. Who knows, there could be another SCANDAL in the making~~!! (it's just an analogy, BTW, not suggesting anything else)

@the younger members: Don't give up hope. Grab hold of any possible chance to go if you can. You are young once only. But of course, don't "hate" your parents for not letting you go. They are just worried, they will always be.

@Makoto, I am not going there for sights or tourist stuff, I am going there to pay my respects... as I told you that night.

@TomomixOgawa, if you really want to go, talk to your parents. I honestly do not mind meeting them and showing them a full itinerary since this idea was thought up by me and enhanced by all you forum friends.

@320x220, I have thought of going Tokyo AND Osaka and yes, the cost will rise up to more then 2k or so as Shinkansen will be expensive. In this way, I would suggest another form of travel payment such as tourist pass. After talking to some retailers, JR is way too expensive alone for Tokyo and Osaka.
Other then that, 1 week might not be enough if this trip will be " SCANDAL Pilgrimage" meaning we will be following SCANDAL's foot steps all over from Osaka to Tokyo and as we know, money is also a big issue with some of our forum friends here. But it would be awesome, I had never been to Osaka anyway~


This trip's main objective is to see SCANDAL live, lets not stray too far from it.

Any other questions?

go ahead and add urself into the list~

me considering to mostly persuading but i prefer june

haha considering the amount of ppl ,renting car is most likely out.. unless we can share the cost of the car and drive around following scandal being their bodyguards lol...

Makoto wrote:haha considering the amount of ppl ,renting car is most likely out.. unless we can share the cost of the car and drive around following scandal being their bodyguards lol...

more then 10 then it is not a good idea, moreover, parking as u said is a hassle.
But if we do, yes we will share all the cost, car, petrol and parking.. we will even take in the drivers share, just to be fair to him.

Though after much researching and stuffs, it is not a really good idea...
Train is so easily accessible ~

yes.. but if ur trying to follow scandal whereever they go.. train is 100% too late lol.. they might be reaching the place, doing their stuffs, while we are still on the train..lols.. its really hard.. so on this point.. requires alot of planning!

Ultimately we need their schedue at least 1 month in advance.. with that and a confirmation of at least 5people with their passports and money ready, then we can start planning and executing this awesome plan~

ah... but for me, i would need a 2 month in advance confirmation... because i may need to go back malaysia to apply for a japan visa... plus hoping saf dont call me back for reservice... .nervous.

From the list, 99% we are doing it in June. I dunno how soon the girl's schedue will be up.. so I say we need to get ready asap, latest after CNY we need confirmations.

agreed... lets all work and plan hard... then in june, we will all have a big blast of a great time...

HirumaKyo wrote:agreed... lets all work and plan hard... then in june, we will all have a big blast of a great time...

I will try my best to make this trip as cheap in terms of travel and lodging,
food I will let you all decide, whatever you wanna eat I cannot control, but be fair, not everyone can afford expensive food and I am sure some of us has allergy like me for instance with Oysters and certain Mushrooms.

I would believe for the bulk of us, most of the money is for SCANDAL, any remainder we will decide again. It is ultimately YOUR money, but I suggest spend it wisely.

Kk. We should all be considerate towards one another. If I can come, I'll bring along a bottle of zyrtec and some panadol just in case anyone gets an allergy or falls ill.

Oh yes, that is a good point. Haha you made it sound as though we are flying in a weeks time.. I am actually getting excited~

Haha yea, the thought of it just feels so exciting.

forget to mention, those which did not place a month preference, I automatically regard you as fine with either.
