tatsukolacey: I wanted to see mum, so I came to Niigata, but… it was like crickets.
ayu_19980408: Tatsu, I spat out the cough drop I was eating at my iPhone when I saw this.

keitamaruyama: And so, later, I’ll focus, my energy, on this masterpiece. But it’s endless. Someoneeeeee–
ayu_19980408: Excited ♡ Excited ♡

ayu_19980408: And finally, we’ll begin full dress rehearsals. It’s make-up time for all the members now. And since I’ll be rehearsing without make-up, it’s Twitter time for me. We’re here inside Yoyogi Gymnasium, and the stages for CDL and Kouhaku are both here, so it’s really a crazy situation now. Both stages make me nervous just by standing beside them ♡

AIKO_esNAIL: Speechless with emotion and elation…
ayu_19980408: Don’t puke tomorrow. (laugh)

ayu_19980408: Today, the entire troupe ran through the whole real show without rehearsing beforehand. Something like a full dress non-rehearsal? TRF’s Chiharu-sama and Etsu-sama also told me after we finished that this was really high quality for a run-through without prior rehearsals. It was just too awesome. HOTEL Love songs will be opening tomorrow, and we’ll put on this show for everyone with confidence!!!

ayu_19980408: Gyaaaaaaaa~ 

katosenseidesu: Going home from Yoyogi!
ayu_19980408: Kato-sensei~ Thank you for staying on until so late! It’s gonna be just as busy, but please support me until the 31st m(_ _)m☆

sgunji: A review of things which made me happy this year. 1: Launch of VOGUE girl, 2: Getting to work with Hamasaki Ayumi-san, 3: Experiencing Fashions Night Out

keitamaruyama: Back home now for Christmas Eve. There’s the joy of being home. The joy of sharing happiness with others. The joy of warm food, and having a job you love. Though we take these for granted, they still fill our hearts with joy. And as I look up at the cold wintry night sky, I feel a slight sentimental loneliness, and that is joy too. I want to have more of such nights.
