Though we’ve been standing together on the stage for 11 years already, I…

Never realized that Chii-chan may actually be a mermaid.

I didn’t know.

Which means my skills are not of a high level.

Everyone, did you all already know that???

Puzzling over that, here’s a photo of my brain.

Nuu————–.

More under the cut!!

Funuu—————.

*struggle*…

I’m really tired…

But because there’s recording to do tomorrow, I have to continue working…..

Phoosh.

Sound of me sighing!!!

Like this! I’m at Nagoya again–, the place which is almost like home, and where this year’s RnRC Tour was staged for who knows how many times ♪

I totally forgot to take a photo of my dressing, and it was only when I reached the venue and was going to change out when I remembered with a “Hah!!!” and hurriedly took a photo. (laugh)

It looked like this– ♪

More under the cut!!

And close-up, it was like this ☆

The whole feeling is, as usual, Bohemian ♪

And then~, after I’ve changed, I hurried to the stage…

On my way, I passed through this place~

This is a show that really has lots of staff working hard backstage… I’d like to thank them once again.

Thank you for everything.

I tried taking this photo from somewhere reached by climbing staircases at the side of the stage.

It may be hard to see from this photo, but I took this at the very rear– ♪

Because it was the band’s rehearsal time, I got to see Peco-sama singing over there on stage.

When I went closer to the centre of the stage, someone who was posing for my camera came into my field of vision.

So I took a photo.

And if it isn’t Yocchan—————- ☆

And then, I went on stage to the place where I’ll be standing when singing.

Looking out over the audience seats and imagining them filled to the max with everyone’s smiling faces, I took this photo.

Here’s the awesome view that I always get when I stand on stage and sing.

Now from the front, a great shot of the whole band ☆

These people are all real adults, and so———–ooo cool.

And immediately, as if he wasn’t cool enough already, Yocchan broke into a guitar solo, and I, of course, took lots of photos!!

I got goosebumps!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And as usual, I kept screaming “Yoccha~~~~~~~~~~~~n!!!”

After watching the cool Yocchan and his exciting performance, the hyper me went backstage to where the dancers were on standby.

There’s Suu-san shooting up~~~~~~~~~~ ☆

2-YAN was also shooting up~~~~~~~~~~ ☆

And below, Shuccha was also shooting up~~~~~~~~~~ ☆

Oh, Kazuma is joining in the shooting up too!!!

But, he somehow looks a little failed. (laugh)

Hmm, on the photo’s left side, someone seems to be achieving the perfect pose.

And that’s how I like you, baby. (laugh)

And here, a person who’s covering his face, as if he’s saying “It’s too bright~~~”

So I played along and really flashed him.

Yes, from then on, it was serious rehearsals for everyone.

Tidying up everything to perfection for tomorrow.

Then, DiN———NE———-R!

I changed again.

A dress I bought from Toco Pacific ♪

But because it looked a little too casual by itself, I got it studded with lots of Bijoux crystals to make it more elegant ☆

After this, I went to dinner, ate lots, and went back to the hotel…

Then everyone went on a Nagoya City Marathon.

We really ran. (laugh)

It was so much fun~ ♪

Here’s a photo I took before I went for a shower, so I was all sweaty and couldn’t take a nice shot like a masseuse!!!

You get what I mean~???

I guess most people don’t~~~ Oh well ♪

The hair just above my forehead was all curly and boing.

And so, I will eat more Shirono Waaru dessert to power up so I can truly get summer going and enjoy it all.

Everyone at Nagoya, let’s get it on together—-!!!

OK? ♡

I realized I forgot to pour the maple syrup on.

Yes yes, I’ve been living a hectic and messy life lately, and before I knew it, the second instalment of the summer festival will soon be staged at Nagoya!!!

Usually, everyone at Nagoya always seem to be in really high spirits. With the additional excitement of summer festival, I wonder if they will be waiting for me this time with lots of energy too~ ♪

So, I shall also do a good power charge-up and go to meet you guys~ ♪♪

Oh yeah, I was going to upload a Fashion Check entry about my dressing when I returned from Ehime the other day, but I forgot. Oops ♡

I’ll be wearing this ten-gallon hat lots this summer ☆

And this turquoise long-ring and leather&feather mix necklace too ☆

The sunglasses are from Yves Saint Laurent–

These days are filled with this kind of Bohemian co-ordination.

I’ll take photos of my dressing tomorrow too!!!!!!!!!!!

Lately, I’ve been continuing work in the studio, getting things ready for the summer journey which will have its opening show tomorrow, so I thought that maybe I should head outside for some fresh summer air.

Since its already like this,
2 August 2010. 4:17am

Though I have no idea what “like this” means, even my clothes have taken on vitamin colours~— ↑↑↑

For today, on top of a short neon orange tube top, I wore a bright emerald green T-shirt that’s too big and flowy so it looks like I have wings.

More under the cut!!

(With Mr. Minazou, from Nail Channel)

And below, I decided to match it with WILD FOX’s flowy vintage denim shorts. ☆

From behind, it looks like~ this.

It’s a little sexy, huh. *giggle*… *smirk*…

And then, I thought I might as well go all out with the accessories too.

Today’s accessories were these~ ☆

There’s the turquoise long-ring that’s really popular nowadays ☆

And on a chain, an elegant turquoise necklace ☆

Plus a leather and feather fringe necklace ☆

Dayoyo~n ♪

And then, I’m not sure if you can see from these photos, but because I’ll have lots of photoshoots sceduled for tomorrow, I’ve changed my nails to bright loud red to fit the theme~

Both my hands and feet are red now. I feel so ageha. Giggle ♡

So, lastly, up till now, I feel that the nails which I feel are my “Best Nail Hit” this year are definitely the RnRC tour ones, and here’s a photo ♡

And… The night goes on~~~~~~~

1 Aug 2010. 1:49am

On and on.

That’s me today, who for some reason keeps humming the “Pata pata Mama”*1 tune, which I used to hear lots on TV when I was young.

↑

(Everyone, do you know this song? Or is it only those in Kyushu who know of it?? *sweatdrop*)

This morning, I was eating GariGari-kun*2 while in the studio, and somehow I managed to fall asleep halfway and it dripped all over my clothes, waking me up again. At first, I thought I had really drooled all over, and was really embarrassed. (laugh)

So!!!

More under the cut!!

When it comes to this, the most important thing I need to do, is to take a break!!!

(Even saying so, that’s the one thing I’m really lousy at. Wahaha–)

Recently, because I’ve been handling various projects all at the same time, my mind has been in a muddle. So when I couldn’t take it anymore yesterday, I brought Papino-sans with me out for a marathon (not a walk) during the middle of the night.

I haven’t done that for awhile, and it really refreshed me ☆

By the time we got home, Papiko-san was so tired that he could only crawl along.

And after working hard tonight, I wonder what I’ll do next to refresh myself– ☆

Hmm, what shall I do———— Suggestions?————–

Ah!!!

My RnRC Tour nails were still on, and because I felt that it was “overdue!” (maybe because I kept looking at it) I got Mr Minazou to change them for me–

Without hesitation, and as thorough as an undercover project, he cut my nails short, and to make it eye-catching , he applied on this functional vitamin colour!!!!!!!!

Something like this~ ☆

It’s neon pink~~~ ☆

Yep, I like it~~~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Alright alright ☆
28 July 2010. 12:39am

I’ll show you all the crazy party photos tonight~ ♪

The theme for the party this time was ROCK!!!

Everything present there was either red, black, or a mix of both ☆

The main logo looked like this. ↓

More under the cut!

This was actually a really big panel that was installed at the entrance of the party venue. And because the venue was in the basement, a red carpet was stretched allllll the way from this entrance on the first floor to the basement level. Everyone had to come in through this entrance and walk in front of this panel, so it’s a good place to take commemorative photos~

Like this ↓

And then, once you enter the venue, there’s an ice ayupan!!! A huge one too ☆

It shone purple…

And blue…

And red… Eh, hmm?? Hey!!!

Hiroshi, you’re in the way. (laugh)

Excuse us.

Yes, and red~ ♪ Pretty, isn’t it ☆

Even the cups have a red logo on them ☆

And then, suddenly, these super high people were spotted.

It’s Kuro-chan~ ♪

He’s so high!!!!!!! (laugh)

And, have you realized something else that’s really awesome?

Yes…

Even the lighting is all red.

The inside of the venue looked like this, DON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It reminds me of a sports bar. (laugh)

Aaand, kanpa~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~iiii!!!

It was the first thing I noticed once I stepped inside, it was just so completely red.

But it’s all good, wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee~~~!!!

Gooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa~~~~~~~~~~~~llll llllllll!!!!!!!!!!!

Gives you that sort of feeling, doesn’t it? (laugh)

By the way, I’m in the middle of the crowd in this picture, but it’s sort of hard to spot me. (laugh)

From then on, all photos took were a little blurred, so it took me a long while picking out the better ones to post here. (laugh)

First, Mother Go-Mi, who suddenly struck this pose on the dance floor!!!

Only he is capable of such amazing poses.

Then, so as not to lose out to him, we posed too.

Shimoko decided on this pose!! Such a classic shot.

And the people who calmly took this shot, were Mother Go-Mi and Yosshi. (laugh)

The two of them just looked so awesomely serious.

Oh!!

And there in the DJ booth, calmly showing us a V-sign, is CMJK-san!!!

He’s so cool.

Re~ a~ dy~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~…

AYU————————-MIX!!!

Babyo~n ♪

And such people were doing such things behind my back. Avatar.

During the later half of the party, many comedians came and did shows, and their jokes heated up the entire atmosphere ☆

It was so so fun~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ♪

As you can probably tell from how everyone was bursting out laughing–

Ehh~ Though there were alot more photos taken, I think what I’ve uploaded is enough. (laugh)

After this, because I’ve sworn myself off alcohol for so long, I couldn’t take it soon after and gave up.

I was probably the first person in the entire party to get totally drunk and had to go home early.

I’m so weak~, damn it. (laugh)

Crashed.

And so, cya later~ ☆

PS.
28 July 2010. 12:50am

And the one, who won the award for being the craziest person…

Is this one!!!

Enrique-san, who went on stage and downed a whole glass of Jacky in one gulp. (laugh)

My third time today
28 July 2010. 2:16am

Nah, it’s just that I’m really forgetful, so I overlooked something really big.

I’m so horrible, I should have discovered this blog sooner because we’re so close, but…

An ayu dancer for 11 years,

a comrade with years and years of history,

and the most gorgeous big sister ever,

Kayanocchi.

I finally found her blog…

Hey, did everyone already know it???

25 July 2010. 3:22am

Last week, when I was standing on the stage in Kobe, it struck me that this was one of the final locations left, and after this, the RnRC tour will be coming to an end. I couldn’t believe it… Or rather, I didn’t want to believe it… It was like how I didn’t want to wake up from a good dream. Like how I didn’t want to face reality.

And while I went on to create the best time when everyone in Kobe, by giving them the best and strongest stage, I kept feeling that I wanted to just continue on and on.

However, now, before the show today, I’m just feeling really really nervous…

Why? Because, when I stood on stage during afternoon rehearsals at Yoyogi, I could feel throughout my entire body that it was the beginning of the end. And then, with that nervous and thumping heart, I stood and gave the first show at Yoyogi my all.

When The Introduction, the first song on the list, started to play, my mind suddenly just cleared, and I realized something important.

Ahh, I really need to begin this ending with my very best shot!!!

And so, I managed to pull through tonight’s show well. Without regrets.

Because it’s just one part out of many.

So, for the best audience who will be gathering here from all over the country, for all the staff members whom I can’t thank enough, and also for my beloved comrades the band and dancers, I will hold all the love that I’ve received from everyone during the long nation-wide tour and pull through all the way to the end with all my might for tomorrow’s final.

I can do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This final, which will be leading up to the super final in October.

Let’s go! Yoyogi Final!!

Onwards to Yoyogi…
21 July 2010. 4:06am

With these nails ☆

For my hands, I’m doing the self-proclaimed smash-hit tie-dye pattern again. It’s done by mixing a thin layer of pink with milk white base.

My pedicure is the opposite of the nails, with a large portion of pink as the base, mixed with some white.

More under the cut!

Basically, the hand is more reserved, while the foot is all-out flashy. I really like this sort of coordination–

But, because this will be for the stage, maybe it’ll be better if we add some more decorations on… Well, that’ll be Minazou’s and my homework for today.

Everyone, if you have any advice, do let me know– ♡

When on my way back from Kobe, Zin-san sent me a mail-message that made my heart pound so hard.

Even if I get caught up in these last few hard days…

I will still go on–!

They’re done ☆
22 July 2010. 8:02pm

After receiving looooooooooooooots of advice from everyone, Minazou and I discussed it over and came up with nails like this~ ♪

Ta-da!!!

I really really love it~~~~ ♡

Leaving the tie-dye pattern as a base, we added silver and gold spangled linings to the side, enclosing the tie-dye inside a box ☆

And one nail on the right and two on the left are completely covered with the silver and gold glittery glitter ☆

Satisfied– ♪

But, you know, I keep wondering everytime. Minazou is so tall, and so well-built too. It amazes me how, with such a huge body, he can always manage to make such delicate masterpieces on my nails…

Hey hey, Armageddon, what do you think? Be honest.

Minazou “Eh? Did you say something???”

Me “Nope, nothing. Did I~???”
