Arrival o/~
No. 224 24 May 2008 12:44 AM

I’ve arrived to the piece & quiet of my hotel in Osaka~ (^_^)b
So, I’m gonna eat well and get plenty of sleep, and then tomorrow & the day after, I’m gonna put on the best shows ever!
I’ll only be drinking alcohol in moderation, yeees…… haha.

Everyone I met at Haneda and Kansai airports gave me sooooooooo many smiling faces, thank you all! (*^_^*)
Aawwwwwww, everyone, I love you! (*^_^*)(*^_^*)(*^_^*)

After this, I think I’ll be looking at all the letters & presents you’ve been so kind as to send o/~
And then I’ll check out the writings from everyone in TA o/~

kimi ga mou kore ijou,
nidoto kowai mono wo minakute sumu no nara…

boku wa nan ni datte narou.

(If it means that you never again
have to look at anything that scares you…

I’ll become anything you need.)

No. 223 23 May 2008 (Friday) 4:44 AM

I have done it o/~

Goodness gracious, for the 2 days in Kobe, everyone was really so concerned~ (v_v)…

I want to show everyone an everlasting and neverending dream (*^_^*)
But yeah, I kept thinking, “when I do this stuff I think I make everyone uneasy!!!!” and I started hating myself… >_<….

But I’m okay now!—— \(^O^)/\(^O^)/ o/~
Mr. Cold Virus, seems to have made his journey away from my body, and I’m jumping for joy!

Since my time in Kobe finished, I’ve finished filming 2 new CMs that I feel pretty good about, and tomorrow I’ll be making my way to Osakaaa~~~~~~~~~~ ∈^0^∋

Let’s go, ooooosakaaaaaa~~~~~~~~~~~ (^O^)/

It’ll be two straight days of perfection!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bwahahaha.

Mama (Mikajohn) is yelling at me so I hafta go sleep noooow~ \(^_^)BYE*

Sou boku wa yuku. (Yes, I’m going)
furikaerazu ni, nigetasazu ni, kao wo agete, aruite ikunda. (I won’t look back, I’m not running away, I raise my head & walk forward.)
boku wa mou mo boku de aritsuzukeru shikanai koto wo. (I, on my own, keep going on, it’s something I have no choice about)
kimi wa itsuka wakatte kureru darou (I would like you to someday understand.)

That’s right.
No. 221 14 May 2008 (Wednesday) 11:17 PM

…what’s right?

Well um, during the Hiroshima performances, I came down with a cold. (*facepalm emote*)
Because of that, I couldn’t go to Okonomimura (aka Okonomiyaki Village, this place in Hiroshima with tons of restaurants. –Deli), which I always look forward to.
(Maybe things will still turn out okay somehow.)

I’m soooo sorryyyyy (>_<)

Everyone in the send-off team, the meeting-up team, and everyone in the venue seemed to me thinking “ayu doesn’t look too great….”, but it was the number of posts here saying “AYU ARE YOU OKAY~(>_<)???” that made me finally give myself up.

Now now, that’s no good.
I am no good!!! I need to be more stable!!!!!

Since perfectly ending the run in Fukui, the cold virus was hidden in my body, and I guess I wasn’t thorough enough when I told it to go away!!!!!!!!
Ugh, enough is enough already~.

As I write this entry, I’m in my home with a muffler wrapped around my neck. I looked all mysterious.

Will you be uploading Today’s Photo soon, KAZ?

Alrighty!!!
No. 222 15 May 2008 (Thurs) 11:36 PM

Today, to prepare for the 2 days in Kobe starting tomorrow, I’m fighting this cold virus with all my might thanks to an IV drip & some shots~ (`_’)v

I’ll meet you all tomorrow with my usual smiling face (*^_^*)!!!!!

I’m working my way up to being in the peak of health! o/~

With the team meeting me & the team seeing me off, and of course everyone kind enough to come to the venue, I’m looking forward to meeting up with everyone, and also today is ahead of time

While I’m very much looking forward to meeting up with the group who greets me, the group who sees me off, and of course everyone who’s so kind as to come see the show, I’m gonna get to bed early today and just zonk right out as soon as my head hits the pillow. (Do people still say “zonk right out”?*)
So I’m gonna go do that now.

muzukashii hanashi wa iranai. (I don’t need difficult words.)
kimi ga waratte kurerebaii. (You should please smile.)

Nagoya, hot!!!

Nagoya, really really hot!!!!!!!

The temperature may be hot, but I’ve decided I am still going to be meeting up with everybody. (haha)

For a minute I thought I landed it Taiwan by mistake. < What the…?! (ROFL)
As for the design, it seems tomorrow KAZ is kindly uploading a new one.(^_^)v

Well well, looks like that’ll a nice diversion for two days starting from tomorrow. o/~
Also my voice has considerably improved, I’m feeling better~ (^_^)b
Yup!!!

Incidentally, today it looked like I was gonna miss my bullet train, so I and the whole group seeing me off ended up making a mad dash up the loooooo~~~nng stairs at Tokyo Station.
So that was a little bit amusing. (lol)

Luckily, I made it on time (*^^)v

Because~ o/~
I was neveeeerrr o/~ ever alooooone o/~
