Watashitachi GIRL
17 June 2012. 09:38:58

The movie of which “Watashitachi” is the theme song of,
 GIRL 

I received lots of comments like “I went to watch it ♪” and “I heard “Watashitachi” playing in the cinema” from everyone, and am really happy 

I finally went to watch it with my friend too  

I had already watched it once actually, during a private preview before its release, and I really laughed and cried so much. But I wanted to watch it again, and I wanted the friend who was the inspiration for “Watashitachi”‘s lyrics to watch it too.
Also, I wanted to hear my own song playing during the credits at a cinema  

It made my friend really happy, so it was great  

Although I already knew the entire story, I still laughed at the same parts, cried at the same things 
It was quite a funny sight,

but at the end of the day, I was touched that my song “Watashitachi” was used as the theme song for this movie  

Whenever I write lyrics, I think,
“Am I the only person who has such feelings? Am I the only one who thinks this way?”
so I take quite some time to finish each lyric, and even when the song is complete, I don’t have 100% confidence in it.

My first feeling that a song is truly complete is when it has reached everyone, and I have seen and heard everyone’s comments on it…

That the words I had written has resonated with everyone,
that everyone tells me about their feelings about love, friends, future dreams, and other stuff,

Only then can I feel that “Oh, so I’m not the only one” and feel reassured.

When I’m troubled, I talk to my friends, or mummy, or big sis, or my senpai.

They tell me “I’ve been through that too” or “I went through such a period before”, and it somehow makes me feel better.

I guess that everyone, including myself, is searching for that special sparkling thing that makes us unique, and we all work hard to shine more than anyone else,
but there are also lots of interesting things which feel reassuring when many others have had the same experience 

In the movie GIRL, Karina-san, acting as Yukiko-san, says,

“As the number of choices in life increases, so does our sense of discomfort, because no matter which path we choose, we tend to wonder if it’s the wrong choice”

I’m sure that line was the one which stayed with us most and gave us reassurance, for myself, my friend, and everyone 

Ahh, I feel so refreshed after watching the movie  
We cried, laughed, relaxed, detoxed,
and when we found out how we felt the same way after the movie, we both laughed 

By the way, did everyone realize that the closet scene which was featured in Watashitachi’s PV
was made in the image of Yukiko-san’s closet in the movie GIRL 

A corner of my own closet looks like this 

I didn’t want to lose out, so I collected lots of pink and sparkly stuff 
I’m really a GIRL 

And so, and so, and so, it’s Sunday today 
If you have the time, please do visit your nearest cinema  

And then, before you hurry off, stay for the credits to hear “Watashitachi”

Fukuoka!!
2 June 2012. 11:14:25

I really wanted to update this blog earlier, sorry 

Just got back from Fukuoka~ And then I was caught up with M-Sta 

Thank you to all who watched M-Sta yesterday 
I almost do a costume change halfway through the show, but they didn’t really catch me on camera last night, so I was glad  

And so~ let me introduce Fukuoka’s Family 

First, Team Second Brother 

Then, Team Second Sister 

Everyone in Fukuoka always welcomes me with real warmth, and we made really great memories this time too  Thank you 
The place and the people at Fukuoka are really wonderful, I love it 

By the way, as I’ve talked about during the live’s emcee session, I went with all the dancers and host Maako-san to Kego Shrine, which is supposedly famous for blessing advantageous marriages 

Here’s the marriage charm I bought 

It’s such a modern and cute charm 

However, in my hometown Mie, there’s a famous place called Yunoyama in the city of marriages. And at Yunoyama, there’s a temple called Mitake Temple…

And because the hometown-loving me didn’t want to offend Mitake Temple, this charm I got is for a friend. As for myself,
I didn’t buy any 

But, oh well  I’ll go get one myself if this one works for my friend 

Next is Sendai 
Looking forward to meeting my Family there
