MYOJO 2010.04 - NEWS & ...RANDOM? :D
(Can't deny he's the prettiest ♥)
YAMAPI
-When last year I had the solo I experienced a lot of new things. It was also the first time I did a concert alone, the first time I was in a promotional Tv show all by myself. It made me think how many experiences I still have to do. I want to have become more expert in dancing, singing, talking, there are so many things I still have to do. I piled up different new experiences. The first time I danced, the first time I was on the stage, my first time in Tokyo Dom...it's so moving. My intentions are to open new doors one after another, there are too many worlds that I didn't see. For example there are a lot of districts where I didn't do a concert. For all this I want to go further more and more. Not one step at time, I'm so impatient that I'd like to do 10 steps in a blink.
-When the new year start I always feel like making new aims. This year I thought that I want so hard to release many cd and do a lot of concerts. There are other things that I still want to do alone and also with NEWS I want to be more active. Because there are many songs that I can't sing without NEWS. Bright, happy, a little eccentric, based on our characters, those kind of songs are perfect to get excited all together, if I'm without NEWS I can't sing them. The fun of the concert is that you can directly Give & Take. If we get in high spirits all the public do the same and their excitement helps us to keep the tension high.
I want to play this catch ball many times this year. I'm a greedy person so I want to work with NEWS and alone. There is a lot of music that I want to try in my solo, like japanese ballads and western-like songs. So this year I'll release many cd no matter what! I also want to create music that nobody still heard anywhere. It will be hard but my will is strong. If you don't have it you can't realize anything. I want to create, have fun and have a lot of new memories!
TEGOSHI
-Personally, I'd like to back sing in a little place where just 300 people can enter only with a guitarist and a bassist. Doing some light talking and listening to my songs the fans can drink something and enjoy the atmosphere. Then, this too in a little place, I'd like to join an orchestra. There the sound is clear and arrive everywhere, I think it would be super funny.
-Last year with a friend older than me I went for the first time in Korea. Since I love spicy food wooow meals were soo good! I went there just when there was the World Baseball Classic. I watched the match Japan-Korea in a yakiniku shop, it's a good memory. This year I want to go in Spain, it's so many time that I badly want to go there. I watch a lot of soccer teams from there. Then I'd like to visit France, England and Italy too.
With ItteQ I visited a lot of places and it was interesting but I long to go in Europe.
-If I have to express last year with a single kanji it would be "Challenge". Last year opened with the concert and my movie directed by an american, the 24hTV and the theathre show...I experienced many new things, it was fun. This year my theme will be a victory with myself. For ex. for the drama (Yamato) I had to lose 3 kilos. Recently I lost another kilo too. I think that the most important thing in a diet is the mind. If you have mental strenght you can realize many things. This is what I thought looking to Michael Jackson "This is it". If you can succeess the jump or not depends only on you. This year I want the Japanese team to win the soccer world cup! I want to be full of this hope. And of course I'll see all the matches in real time.
SHIGE
-At home I finally have the so-longed Dark room! There I can print the photos I took listening to music and I think more and more how much the film camera is interesting. Sometimes when you print photos you thought were good you find out that they're bad and on the opposite someone are unexpectedly good. When they're digital you can work on pictures who look bad and somehow adjust them (lol). Ahhh~ I really love photography! Someday I'd like to open a gallery with all my works.
-Recently there are cool korean movies! Expecially the one called "Utsusemi" was a shock. In a story of 1 hour and half the main role didn't say a single line. The heroin's part too was quite mute, she said only "Saranheyo". In spite all this, it was so well-made! Henceforth, I searched for other movies by the director of "Utsusemi" Kim Gidok, from it I spaced and I'm watching a lot of Korean movies. Until now I only watched Japanese movies...I was surprised by my own self. Then, I began to be interested with Korea itself for the first time, recently I went there with Koyama and one of our common friends. We visited the famous places, we ate delicious food...Yes yes, we ate in a shop similar to a bar some super spicy tako. Everybody gave up and I was the only one to eat it all, the next day Shige was "ittai ittai" (lol). But I'm pretty strong with spicyness. The seasoning of my hometown is very spicy. Raa Abura, Shichimi, KuroShichimi, YuzuShichimi, KabosuShichimi, Yuzukoshou...I'm used to eat things like those in the boiled bean curd.
Then, when we went in Okinawa I bought the Kooreeguusu! It's so good with everything, fried things, instant ramen! The thing that I like the most, me who is a maniac for seasoning, is something I found in a certain Bream shop, it's like a little bud of a tree. Since it was so good I asked to the owner of the shop and he told me it was "Hana Sanshou". Right now I'm searching for it so that I can do Bream Meshi by myself! Right now at home I have one bream in the fridge who is waiting only for it (lol).
(Notes: Shichimi is a kind of chilli pepper. Kooreeguusu is a sauce. Sanshou is mountain pepper)
RYO
This isn't something that I'm preparing but something that already started but some times ago I went to do snowboard! It was 6 years that I didn't do it! But it went totally well. Before sliding I was scared, I thought that it was a little dangerous but it went really great. I'm a genius (lol). I bought my snow wear and the board before going, I lacked only the inner parts. So my friend went to buy for me a inner part made of a material that generate heat and control the temperature. But it seemed that everything for men was sold out so he bought me a breast covering for women (lol). After the snowboard I came back and went in a snowboard's goods shop, I got a properly men's inner. Because I couldn't stand it! (That pointed out to my true deep heart) Why did it suit me that much!? My friend bought it for me I couldn't help but wearing it...but unexpectedly I never felt cold on the snow. So right now I can't wait to use my new inner wear! I want to come back to snowboarding soon!
-Something interesting I saw recently is the movie "Golden Slumber", it was so weird! I already read the original work and I liked it and I also saw another movie based on it but there the images I had reading the book and the ones of the movie were too different...but this one wasn't like this, it was really great!!
-Plans for the work...I don't particularly have it (lol). But I think that it would be good if the things that I like to do in my private life could be connected with my work. For ex. I love to play guitar but I think that if I didn't do it for work too I couldn't exercitate so much. If I have to express my 2009 with a word it would be "Bend". Before the jump you have to bend, right? For this, last year was a bending to prepare myself to this year's jump. If it will go well it will turn in "Save" (lol). I'll work hard to make me say in 2011 that 2010 was a "jump".
MASSU
-When I was about to do something new before I was always excited. At school I never was anxious "With whom I will be? In which class? It will be funny". Because I was a kid who could play with whoever, my best friends weren't the one in my same class. Right now the thing that make me excited is the next NEWS concert. With Tegomasu we could realize a lot of things we thought so we're satisfied. I want the same to happen with NEWS. What I'd like to do is still uncertain...without schedules or meeting I can't think about it...I never change, I always was the type who can't do his homeworks until the deadline. If a concert will be planned soon I'll do all my homeworks.
-Last year also the training done for "Rescue" looked like homeworks for the drama. Because if I didn't master those skills I couldn't record the drama. It was hard but when I succeed to do those things that at the beginning I couldn't do I felt a great fullfillment's sense. Right now I want to become faster at running. For me the velocity of my legs was a obvious thing, during middle school I also won some track&fields. But when I ran the 100m for Soukon I had the feeling that my legs weren't following what I wanted them to do, it was a shock...At the field day my legs were tangled up, I felt like a dad. My aim is return back to my usual "me with fast legs"!
-When I feel the other's expectation I feel like not wanting to met them. I'm pretty evil (lol). Because of course I want to reach more than the expectations. During Tegomasu since we were only in 2 there were so many things to do. In NEWS we're 6 so who knows if I'm able to fullfill also the things that I want to do by myself. During Tegomasu I thought that I wanted to be able to talk more during the MC part. So that during the MC with NEWS I will be able to speak more freely too.
KOYAMA
-Now I'm interested in economy and I'm reading books related to it. One interesting thing is something written in one book "The economy moves with the feelings", for ex. if 3 people have to choice between 3 options they will choose the middle one. For this, if in a coffee shop there is a S-size coffee and a M-size one and the shop wants to sell more M-sizes cups that are more expensive, they should create a L-size. Me too if I had to choice between S-M-L sizes I would normally buy the M one (lol).
I understand very well the sense of changing the use of money according to feelings. Recently, I didn't have money in hand so I borrowed 10000 yen from my mother to buy some clothes but when I was about to take off those money from my wallet I felt like I couldn't spend them. It was a simple calculation but those 10000 yen were what my mother earned selling 20 bowls of 500 yen Ramen. Then, if I would have returned her those 10000 yen nothing would have changed but that thing moved my feelings. Economy may look like a difficult subject but if you put it into such a close argument it's easy to understand, you all understood too, right?
-My Korean "boom" still goes on. It's 1 month and half that I'm studying Korean but half a month ago I went to Korea and I could read all the signs! One day maybe I will pass the border between Japan and Korea with songs, dramas or entertainment stuff so right now I'm studying everyday to realize this dream.
-Another thing that I love those days is the work on the pictures. Shige taught me how to change the colours in them. By the way, the pictures I have now in my telephone are all pictures I took on the streets of Korea in sepia colour. But I like more taking pictures of people than scenes. It's so good to see the happy faces even after some time. Pictures can shape the memories in your head. When you listen to a song you used to love in the past it can make you remember lot of things but pictures give you more vivid memories. Like a memo on your telephone's screen. From now on I want to take a lot of smiling faces!
