KAT-TUN in Wik up December 2008: Nakamaru's article
Dedicated to those who are students and who were students in past♥
As I used to be working in the cram school for a long time, when our idols are talking about study and education, they attract my interest.
*Because recently I was terrified by the robber who pretended they translated it, I am now quite nervous and short-tempered at translation, that PLEASE DO NOT REPOST ANYWHERE, and INSTEAD, FEEL FREE TO LINK FROM ANYWHERE.*
*If you are willing to retranslate into another language, drop me a comment below and credit me(such as 'masuda_takahits@livejournal') when you do it.*
Thanks for reading, my renewed notification, have fun♥
(* the italic sentence between brackets is the my additional explanation.)
What classes were you good or poor at when you were a student?
Rather than good, my favorite subjects were Science and Chemistry.
They were somehow interesting to me and I could enjoy the classes.
My grades aside(LAUGH).
What I was poor at was English.
I couldn't have an interest.
Now, my motivation differs from that of in past, as I entered my university by my own wish to study, it's interesting.
But I can't understand the Statistics....
It's just like "what...?"
In the class, I am continuously told "let's have a statistical MIND".
The lecturer seems to want us to master the Statistics, not 'I understand' but 'I can'.
But, I know I was told that....[SILENCE]...I will do my best(BITTERSMILE).
What classes did you "understand their importance after I grew up..."?
Once I think about it now, all the compulsory education was needed to me, the high school education too.
I used to think that study is meaningless, but even if I have no chance in my life to directly use the knowledge I learnt, there must be something I could learn.
Now I found, as school provides group activities, there were a lot to learn other than study.
For example, the circle (*of the classmates) and something we shouldn't disturb....it is indeed the good point and necessity of the schools that we can learn something we definitely need even after we go out into the society (* of adults).
But, even if we were told that at that time, we never understood(LAUGH).
My parents and office says "school takes your first priority", and it's correct indeed.
"I will give you a lesson!" what can you teach with confidence?
Voice percussion, beatbox.
There's no doubt about it.
Well after I tried it(*beatbox), I thought we can surely learn fast when there is someone who is also playing it around the learner.
In case of me, as there was no one around me I continued listening to the sound sources and videos of foreign performers although there were very few(* tapes and videos available at that time), and as there was no lecturers available, I took 3 years to learn the technique which could be mastered by 1 week.
Once I understood it was easy to play, but at that time I couldn't understand at all!
It's really profound... even I want an instructor(LAUGH).
The happening "it really taught me~" in your life.
The experience to be allowed to appear on my senior's stage as a back dancer when I was a junior.
Still now I ask my seniors to let me watch their concerts, they experience more concerts than us and through watching my seniors with various senses I can learn a lot.
Are my juniors thinking the same for me(* if the juniors are learning from his concerts)?
Well, the other day I went to watch Kanjani's concert, and there were lots of people(*juniors) who look like Koki(LAUGH).
There are only 2 months left in 2008. What do you want to do until this year ends?
I want to gain a little more muscle.
It can be because of my constitution, but I can't grow well.
I am doing not only the game(*TV game) but also the physical training.
Other than that what I can do within 2 months... shopping!
I haven't went shopping at all!
(Kame next to him said "your comment sounds like a genius(LAUGH). I will use it!")
Shopping is important!
We can see what are in fashion, and the style of those walking in the town..., I might not care much about it.
But shopping brings me a refreshment from the stress.
