You know you're really Arashi-fied when:
~ there's a Japanese food promotion in the mall and you start looking around for Soup de Okoge, Tongari Corn and C1000 Lemon Water. (I didn't do this, okay... My imouto did! hahah... As if I would go looking for Soup de Okoge. :P)
~ you see a poster for a new condominium called Bay Star and your brain immediately goes to Bay Storm - even though you don't listen to Bay Storm. -__-"
~ the car in front of you has "Wish" written on the back (I think it was a Toyota?) and you grin to yourself, and start to hear Machi ni ai no uta nagare hajimetara, hito-bito wa yori soi au in your head.
~ in the grocery section of a particular mall frequented by a lot of expats, you come across C1000 Lemon Water and actually stop to consider buying it, despite the price. (No, I didn't buy it after all... Though I might for my imouto's birthday. lol.)
~ while driving, you pass by a signboard advertising a type of tea, and you vaguely register that it's in Japanese (お茶の葉), and read it mentally... Only to have it occur to you a split second later that you shouldn't actually recognise that last character, since you hardly know any kanji and can only read the second character because it's common, and also Chinese for 'tea.' Then you realise that it's the second kanji in Aiba Masaki's name. No wonder you recognised it.
~ you hear Ricki-Lee's cover of the original Agnes Carlsson song Love is All Around*, and even though the lyrics are in English... Let's just put it this way: you just keep hearing Sugi sarishi hibi instead of We were always together... And English is practically your mother tongue. ><
*Arashi's We Can Make It is a cover of this song.
~ you feel tired one day at work and find yourself muttering in a low voice, "I am very tired," with a distinct Japanese accent, a la Bon in Pikanchi Double.
