Aiba Masaki
Q. Last night, what did you do?
The recording for a special program. It ended at about 11pm.
Q. This morning, what time did you wake up?
About 10am.
Q. The first thing you did upon waking up.
I took a bath. When work is at an ungodly hour in the morning on the next day, I take a bath on the night before but, basically, I'm the type to take a bath in the morning.
Q. The time it takes before you leave the house?
About 10 minutes, if I'm feeling good (?)*. But, I usually wake up at about 1 hour before I leave the house. I'll change, pick up my bag, pick up my cellphone too, then sleep for a second time (laughs). When I have a cellphone in my hand, I can wake up instantly.
Q. Lately, something that you've smiled at, that you've laughed at.
For a "Tensai Shimura Doubutsuen" recording, I went to Thailand. For the manager who went, it was her first time abroad. So, after her luggage went pass the X-ray machine, she forgot to take them. She went through immigration like that. Then when she remembered, panicked, and tried to return, she was arrested by the customs people (laughs). She should've just explained the situation, but I guess she must've been really frantic.
Q. Lately, something you had fun with.
When I saw a famous bridge that appeared in a movie at a suburb in Thailand. Just at that moment, they were doing some kind of show there. I was applauding while watching it from an open terrace restaurant, but the people around had a really cold reaction. It was actually a rehearsal, but I still had lots of fun with a rehearsal ♪
Q. Lately, something that that made you happy.
When I rode a Harley that I had been wanting to ride since before, at a photoshoot. It made me want it but, it'd be cold to ride a bike in winter huh.
Q. Lately, something that made you angry, that made you frustrated.
Nothing really.
Q. Lately, something that made you sad, something that caused you pain.
There's an antique clock that I saw in a magazine and wanted to get, and because it's in Kawasaki, I had decided to ride the train over there on my own. Because Kawasaki was in Kanagawa Prefecture, I thought, "It'll take about 1 hour from the city right?" and bought 3 volumes of manga with the preparation for a small trip, but when I took the train from Shinagawa, it arrived in about 10 minutes. "Eh! I've already arrived!?" I was shocked.
Q. Lately, something embarrassing.
It was embarrassing that I lacked so much knowledge of the world, that I didn't know Kawasaki was this close from the city.
Q. Lately, something that hurt.
My wisdom teeth grew in the sides, and I had been saying, "My wisdom teeth hurt," all this time but, it wasn't the wisdom teeth that hurt, but the joint in my jaw. I said here and there, that "my wisdom teeth hurt", but I had made a mistake.
Q. Your latest troubles.
It sure has been cold every day lately.
Q. Your latest off-day.
I went to play golf, something I hadn't done for half a year. It was fun~ I thought, "Golf is a leisure" but, in the period that I didn't go there for a while, everyone around me had gotten better. Because I'm frustrated, I want to get better too!
Q. Something you bought lately.
Souvenir hats to members, from Thailand. It has a tiger emblem on it, and the 4 members have different colours. But, everyone didn't like it and told me, "We don't want them anymore~" (laughs)
Q. Lately, the item you'll definitely carry around with you.
Lip cream.
Q. About how much money do you have in your possession today?
(Takes out his wallet) About 20,000 yen I think.
Q. Lately, an item you're obsessed with, or an incident.
A soccer game with my friends. I always play with a team from England called Newcastle. My favourite player is Martins.
Q. Lately, a delicious meal you had.
Meals are always delicious. For lunch today, I had Chinese with my manager but, the mapo tofu that I ordered was delicious. Because manager-san was eating a normal order of fried rice, I told her, "This is delicious you know? Try it!" and put some of it on, so I made it into mapo fried rice for her. ♥
Q. Something that you want to eat the most.
I'm full (laughs).
Q. Lately, music that you like.
When it turns into the cold season, I'd want to listen to Hirose Koumi.
Q. Lately, an interesting movie, DVD.
The movie "Die Hard 4" that I saw on the plane was interesting! And Adrenaline" with Jason Statham from "Transporter" was interesting too.
Lately, an incident or a piece of news that you're concerned about.
When you watch the TV, there's a lot of sad news huh.
Q. Lately, a person you want to meet.
The soccer player, Martins.
Q. Now, the item you want most.
Friends.
Q. Now, something that you want to try, that you want to start.
Diving right. At my hometown's ocean (laughs).
Q. Now, something you want to stop.
Going back to sleep again.
Q. Today, when you go home, what do you plan to do?
It depends on my tension. If it's high, I'll go drinking, if it's low, I'll watch videos at home.
Q. About how many minutes, do you take a bath?
About 30 minutes when it's long. I'm fast when I just wash though~ I'm done in about 5 minutes.
Q. When you enter the bath, where do you start washing from?
My head.
Q. Lately, is there something you definitely do before you sleep?
Set water in the humidifier. Because I don't like to have my throat hurt when I wake up.
Q. The way you look when you sleep lately.
Jersey. There are times when I wear shorts for the bottom.
Q. A dream you had lately.
You know, dreams are things that you forget, the minute you wake up and get them.
