^ WOW!! Really! That's a long time!!! Why isn't it official yet? :(

yeah it was

:thud

omg way back in April T_T T_T

so chances of it being true is quite likely ? :shrug

for all her fans sake and her own sake, she better release something new. bye-bye wasn't really a "new" single, so..her last single was kurage nagareboshi? :shrug

I know grr

if not I'm going to focus in supporting other female solo artistes of mine in the avex label

I just realised that all those solo artistes I support that're under avex , they're all female o_O (except for GIRL NEXT DOOR but I don't know if you can count it as so since Chisa's the only 1 singing in GND :P)

Oh sorry I didn't know I post (old) news... I just saw those while I was surfing around Channel-Ai lol...
