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 ^^
