Can it be?? November’ll end today?
This year, which has just started, will soon be
over!
Even though it still doesn’t feel as though the tour’s over...
Surely and steadily, the drama’s getting close to its completion.
Even if we ignore that, a year is coming to an end.
This year also had
lots of things.
My life has really changed since joining KanJani8.
During my high school years, I would ask, “What’ll my future be like??” I only felt unease at the unseen future. I was impatient.
I had no self confidence.
If we were to have self confidence as believing in one’s self, the amount would’ve been zero.
I’m often told things like
“Struggles of an idol aren’t that big of a deal, right??”
True, there are tons of people who work hard and my struggles aren’t that big of a deal and I don’t want to flippantly say I’ve had a tough life but it’s really something only that person can understand, right?
It’s hard.
So, I think that
other people and adults
who don’t know anything about it
shouldn’t assume things.
In a letter I received recently
a girl wrote that
she saw me and got the power the chase after her own dreams.
Such a pleasant and awesome thing.
I think having dreams and continuing to chase after them is difficult.
There are probably lots of a others the same age as me who worry.
I’ve been lucky and have a dream but
if I didn’t have a dream
if I didn’t have a job I liked
if I didn’t have this job, then I too wouldn’t have anything I’d want to do.
I’d probably be searching for something unforeseen while working odd jobs.
So,
having someone see me doing my dream job,
be able to come up with a new dream
and think, “I’ll do my best!”
helps me out too.
People who are the same age as me are searching for jobs while going to university, right??
They’re worried and impatient but
I hope they believe in themselves and work hard.
Get a dream
is probably
incredibly bossy sounding
to those clueless souls around me but
I hope you can still gain power from it.
I’m not a huge success yet so I’m not one who can be bossy but
I have a place where I can post my words to everyone, that’s all.
I’m humbly stating the views
of a solitary young man.
I’ll work hard in KanJani8! Everyone else work hard too!
This turned out to be rather lengthy...
Now,
my butt
itches...

I had a Live broadcast on Kansai TV.
Today’s Kansai TV is a mini-festival.
I totally fell flat.
Ah~
I wanna be funny.
Wah, it seems I’ll be busy next year too.

Heh-mewmew-llo-woof.
I have just a little bit left to clear in Dragon Quest 4. So, when I finish I’ll watch 24.
Honestly, I’ll finish the series soon.
I’ll enjoy watching it while also being in suspense.
Speaking of which,
I got the final script today.
I’d read it at a publicity local.
The script got splashed with tears.
My eyes turned bright red.
It was horrible.
My eyes’ll probably be all red within the pages of some magazines...
It’s awful.
That’s all I can say.
Next,
I made breakfast because
I had time this morning.
(picture of lots of food on pretty plates)
Did I get too into it?
What do I want to become?
Feh~(^Д^~)

Home shopping network programs are amazing.
They can easily and compactly introduce the good points of products...
Those aren’t just lines.
I really feel that way.
I think of the mindset of a father who throws out his daughter
‘cause she didn’t want to let go of her childish desires...
Ah, I want...
a nabe pot with removable handles.

I want a ca~r.
I’ve recently wanted a ca~r.
I see oodles of cars driving about town but there aren’t any I want.
Are there no good cars??
A new, good quality one or an old, analog type...
It’s fun looking at books and researching.
I want a four wheel drive sports car one day.
I’d like to give a lift to a person I like in a sports car and travel across the Rainbow Bridge.
I like stereotypical settings.
I told a friend we should play basketball recently and got all excited.
I don’t exercise much when I don’t have concerts.
If I don’t move my body, I don’t feel well.
Well, now, I guess I’ll go run.

I have an interview today.
It’s the season where the words “Have a good year” are flying about the local.
So,
this corner also has about 3 weeks left.
Since it feels lonely when it doesn’t seem like I’m writing everyday
my cellphone battery also becomes low.
Even though my writing is
diminishing in sorta the same manner...
When it gets dark in summer,
it’s still light out in winter.
Isn’t it lonely around that time??
It’s when you have to say goodbye to friends...
The goodbyes increase tons at the end of the year...
Goodbyes are
always sad...
