Seventeen Sept. 2011 - Sho-sama's Medical Records

Since it's Sho-chan's birthday, I come out of my rock to present to you an old translation! XD
In this article Sho was asked for advice on various things. :)

Sakurai Sho (Arashi)
"God's Medical Records", the latest film he's starring, is coming to theaters soon!
Aside from talking about the film, Doctor Sakurai draws up "Sho-sama's Medical Records" with love for the troubled readers!

[I skipped translating the article about KamiKaru though. ^^' Sorry. XD]

CASE 01
Is going to college a must?
Hello Sho-kun.
I'm taking the university exams this year. Lately, I've been worrying if I should really take the exams, since I don't know why I should go to college. It's not like I've ever dreamed of wanting to study in college. But everyone's going, and I don't like being left behind, so I'm keeping at it. Why did you think of continuing onto college? How was life as a university student?
(3rd year High, Ririka)
There are also things you'll only learn during your days as a university student!
That's how it is for everyone! There are fewer people who have found what they want to do during 3rd year High, you know.
Even though I graduated with a degree in Economics, right now I'm working as Arashi, right? I went to university because all my classmates were going as well. That's how it was for me too!
However, life as a university student was fun! In the first place, I don't think there are that many people who are thinking of what they're going to do after university.
It's fine looking for what you want to do while you're in university, and you can also change courses. And then there are also times when you'll finally find what you want to study when you're off in the real world.* 
When you find what you want to do, you aim at a university that won't limit your range of choices.
I think that's also one decision. Compared to high school, university takes relatively more time, so there are also things you'll only learn during those days. That goes for taking part-time jobs, and traveling as well. Meeting and studying with my friends at a family restaurant is a happy memory for me even now.
Up until high school, I was a person who planned on the times I would study by myself, but I also thought that studying with friends would be nice.
QUESTION
Q What's you favorite food that you Mom cooks? 
(by Anri)
Shimeji (T.N.: It's some kind of mushroom) and octopus butter sauté. My mom doesn't know how to cook much (laughs). In the limited menu, this is the once I liked since I was a child. She still makes it for me occasionally even now!

CASE 02
What does "going out" mean?
After going out with the person I like because I thought that "if it's this person, we can understand each other", our values and way of thinking are completely different, and we ended up breaking up in less than a month.
There were too many parts of him I didn't know about. It was like he was a completely different person.
What does it mean to "go out"?
Even though I liked him that much, I won't understand anything unless I try going out with him....
Now, I'm afraid of going out with someone.
(1st Year High, Chiizu)
"Respect" and "Perseverance". The answer is different for every person.
You've understand what kind of person you partner is pretty well in a month, huh. 
You've properly made a decision~  As for me, I'd definitely won't know what kind of person my partner is in one month. However, it's not good to think "That's not right" even once.
Well, the greatest point of this consultation is the importance of "what does going out mean?", right? (laughs)
In my opinion, nicely said, it's "respecting each other". Badly said, its "persevering". AHAHAHA. Those were some wise words right now, right? (laughs)
You know, I think probably, the hurdle towards your partner before dating considerably going up. I have a feeling that it's more of a gap between one's ideals, rather than a difference in values.
Isn't imagining too much before going out not good?
Going out is different for everyone, and I don't think there's just one answer.
The answer is something you two would make.

CASE 03
Please give me the sense of surprise!!
My friend's birthday is soon approaching. I want to surprise him with something and mke it a day he won't forget, but I can't think of anything but ordinary things!! (`  )/
If it was you, what would you do?
(1st Year High, Chappi)
Pretend like it's a normal day and protect the instigator's ironclad rules!!
You know, I like celebrating people's birthdays and surprising them.
The easy way is the pretend like it's an ordinary day pattern.
You tell him, "Let's go to such-and-such place!" normally and take him there. And then there's the friends that gathered there to celebrate his birthday. As for decorations, even just chains made out of origami are just fine.
It's cliche, but wouldn't he feel quite happy?
However, if the surprise gets found out beforehand it'll be pretty lame.
The painfulness of him realizing the surprise, and his kindness of pretending not to know. (laughs)
Both of you will feel unhappy, so not getting found out is the instigator's solid rule. It's courtesy, right?
