It's been nearly two years. I can't believe Daisuke Asakura has been part of my life for such a relatively short time period, and yet I feel like he's always been with me. Even though I've never met him, I've had so much faith in him that merely looking at his picture or listening to a song makes me feel better when I'm under stress. It's like he's my perfect best friend. IRL I know that couldn't be possible because IRL Daichan is a little arrogant uke bitch. Maybe imaginary friend is better. Or God. But I love him. I can see and feel the good in him. Since I've been a musician for 13 out of the 18 years of my life I feel like can interpret some of Daichan's feelings and style from what he composes, which helps with the whole 'I DON'T FUCKING UNDERSTAND JAPANESE" problem (although I'm finally conquering that problem with Rachel's help and by taking Japanese!).
I love what Rachel-Lala-san wrote before in her journal. "DA and Hiro have this chemistry together that really pulls you in" or something. I agree. They've captured my heart. I REALLY REALLY hope that I can go to Japan and represent the gaijin DA community myself someday. I've dreamed of being able to say that I'm from America while at an access concert.
For now, I'm going to do my best to be a loyal fan from afar and dream of the day when I can personally huggletackl---I mean, shake hands with DA.
