I thought this was common sense, but let me spell it out to you again:

Duet 2011.10 Japanizu Hi Part 1
(Marius, Kuramocchan, Shori, MatsuSo, Amu)
Blue Sky Private Information
It's a waste to spent days of great weather inside your room, that's why they got over the heat and dashed outside. The topic this time is OUTDOOR. We asked what kind of days they spend under the blue sky. And then, on page 150 are the profiles of 11 Fresh Junior, so check them out as well.
Yo Marius:
I'll spent this year's summer holidays not in Germany but in Japan. I don't have any memories of playing with friends from Japan in the summer holidays yet. That's why I'll talk about memories of playing outside in Germany last year. When it became summer I was always looking forward to going fishing at the riverside with friends. At first we went to my friend's house, taking the fishing tools, and then we went to the Rhein river. There is a fish called “Lachs”, it would be something like “shake” in Japanese ("salmon" in English) . It is big and delicious. And then, even though we were waiting for 2-3 hours already, we didn't catch anything. When we thought “Why could that be?” and checked the fishing rod the fish hook was gone. We went back to my friend's house and searched for another hook, but because his room was all messy we couldn't find it, in the end we weren't able to catch a single fish. Like this I've made some sad memories (laughs). Next year's summer holidays I want to make many Japanese friends and play with them a lot. I want to play hide-and-seek in a temple and try out “
Kimodameshi (Test of Courage)”!
Kuramoto Kaoru:
Ah, lately I'm not playing outside at aaall. That I've played soccer with friends on the wide space in front of my house happened quiet a while ago as well. But when I think about it tho~roughly, I haven't really experienced having fun playing outside. I haven't been to a camp or a barbecue party or hiking even once, and when playing at the riverside I got washed away (laughs). When I played picking up fishing floats I fell into the stream and sank under water for a moment like glub-glub, getting washed away. It was a pretty shallow stream so I managed to grab onto a rock close by and saved myself climbing out of the stream. That's why I don't feel the need to expressly go to the sea, mountains or rivers. It's enough when I can play soccer in a near park or at the school grounds. I'm good at playing keeper, but recently I'm told by people around me to switch to defense or forward. What should I do, as playing forward has the high pressure of having to score goals, denfense would probably be better. I'm unexpectedly weak to pressure (laughs).
Sato Shori:
Recent outdoor activities? Waaah, I wanted to get asked about this the day after tomorrow. This year's summer was “SUMMARY” all the time, so I haven't been camping nor to festivals or firework displays, I haven't done anything typical for summer yet. Everyday, while listening ton music, I go back and forth between home and the “SUMMARY” venue. Oh by the way, what I'm listening to is Kinki Kids' album, you know (laughs)? And that's why as tomorrow is a day off, I made the promise of “Let's go to the sea!” with some sempai I'm close to and with friends. I'll be doing something outdoors tomorrow, it's tomorrow (laughs). But you know, it's not like I hate playing outside, but I'm bad with heat plus I don't want to get a sunburn and because I can't swimm, even if I have plenty of time I can't get into pools or the sea that easily. That's why it's like I actually don't even have swim trunks to wear tomorrow. And because today there'll be another interview, I won't be able to buy some myself. I have to leave it to my mother to choose some for me I guess---.
Matsushima So:
I have just moved houses a while ago, so it's the first summer I'll spend in the new house. The garden is bigger than before and our dog (Muku, a maltese. 8 years old, male) is really happy about that (laughs). I help my father with his hobby of taking care of the garden, I'm growing green soybeans and morning glory. If I had to say why green soybeans, it's because everyone in the family likes them and even amateurs can grow them easily. I planted them together with my father, but I was really happy when the sprouts came up. The morning glory's tendrils hang down from the balcony on the second floor, forming a green curtain. In the morning the flowers bloom and around noon they block the sunlight, keeping it cool inside the house. But while working outside this summer I noticed that as I thought, this year's summer is a bot weird. Because you know it's abnormally hot and still there are only very few insects... I think about growing mini tomato next. Gardening is fun, but I really want to go to the sea as well. Playing covered in sun protection crème because I don't want to get a sunburn and doing toy fireworks at the seaside in the evening... It'd be great if I could go to the sea on a day off from “SUMMARY”.
Haniuda Amu:
Because this year's summer I'm appearing in “SUMMARY”, I don't have any plans for playing outdoors. In exchange I'll go to visit relatives who live near by with my sister when I have the time to. I have one younger sister and my cousins are three brothers. Everyone is close and we're in high spirits when playing TV games. Cousins are different from silbings and from friends, it's like I can feel a special bond, they are a very important existence to me. They couldn't get tickets for “SUMMARY”, but I want them to one day come and see me standing on Johnnys stages. Talking about this, on my way home from this “SUMMARY” there was an incident that made me catch my breath. When walking the road from the station to my house like always, when turning around a corner, in the middle of the street a cockroach was sitting! I really have no clue where that one came from. It came and went most unexpectedly. Ever since then I'm feeling oddly nervous when getting closer to a corner (cries).
