Good morning
I’m Ohno Satoshi of Arashi
The word for today is
“If I think that I want that, then I am looking at it fixedly
And I value it and keep it locked in my head
By doing that it won’t get lost
And it won’t get broken either
It won’t get heavy bringing it with me all the time
And its colors won’t fade either”
These are the words that Snufkin, the famous character, says in the book “Moomin” written by the Finnish author Tove Jansson.
Hoo~ Snufkin
This was told to us by the listener OOsan from Yokohama
I’m reading the mail:
“Satoshi-kun, good morning. I’m listening happily every day. These words were put on the wall of the library room as the words for this week. These words are striking home for me, because without realizing, things have started to pile up, but I’m not in the least tidying up. Satoshi-kun, are you the type who buys without realizing when you want something?”
I see
Well, for me it ends only with thinking “this is good”
The other time, when I was overseas too
I was thinking “this is good, right?, but I don’t go as far as to buy it
I buy a lot of fishing goods
I buy lure in big amounts thinking “I should buy this in advance as well”
“Maybe I’d need this pattern too at some time”
But beside that I don’t do any shopping
I wouldn’t know what to do
It’s not like I want clothes
Frankly, my mother buys clothes for me
Even now
She says that it’s fun
If it makes her happy then I want her to continue
And she also says that she lets out her stress that way
So I said “ah, please then, do it”
Lately she sends me a lot of clothes
And, as you’d think I can’t wear them all
Because I start rotating them immediately
After I wash them, I wear them
And new ones are increasing
So, even though I don’t go shopping
The situation is, things are being sent to me and are increasing
So regarding clothes, I’m feeling fulfilled
However, there are no flashy clothes
In my room there’s also a sofa, a bed and a table
I didn’t say this but I don’t have much furniture
But, I did my best and got a big TV
I did my best with that
And watching Doraemon on that, it was even more moving
Yeah, it was even though [my TV] it was big
Talking about it, I want to buy a table
Because the color of the table is coming off
I said that, right
So, yeah, I kind of want a table, maybe?
But it’s not like I want it right now
So I think I probably won’t buy a table
Right, without realizing it, I’m not buying anything
I’m the type who without realizing wants things, but doesn’t buy them
If I buy
If I buy anything, I’ll inform you
Please wait patiently
That’s all, it has been Ohno Satoshi
To whoever reads this:
I don't know if I should post any of my translations over to arashi_on or any other community from now, because I've just been accused that I'm making you guys commit Mass Suicide. Isn't that wonderful? lol I have no idea how my translations have that effect on you, but maybe if I stop posting them to big comms this kind of things won't happen anymore. So I wanted to ask those who actually read these translations, if I should still post them to arashi's communities, or if you don't care at all, then maybe I should just post them to my journal only. What do you think it would be better?
On another note, enjoy this episode ^^
