Draft!! (2008.11.22 02:54) *

I say, without getting my beloved draft beer (^_^), but it's been a while since I did a live broadcast.

How do you like the new tune? Gives a good feeling, don'tcha think?

And for those dissatisfied persons saying Not to many photos, you know~


Yes, a fan service photo (^_^) although, I guess you might call it a fraud photo. (bwahahah)

It was actually taken a couple days ago, but please, enjoy. (^_^)

As for today (yesterday), I forgot to take a photo. (^^;)

I'll meet you again in a couple days via the television~ Until then, everyone, have a nice weekend~


[ * the word he uses for the title can also mean naive, as in wet behind the ears, or raw, as in unprocessed. ]

Metamorphosis!! (2008.11.9 14:07)

I'd better do some fanservice every once in a while. (^_^)


Yesterday, we did some still photography, so I took the opportunity to have someone take a picture of me with a cell phone. (^_^)

If I didn't take a picture in this kind of situation, just like everyday, you know, it'd be super dangerous. (^^;)

Especially lately, I've been cooped up for so many months, not going anywhere but to the studio, so my hair is a complete mess, and my whiskers are all over the place.

To make matters worse, I haven't slept, I haven't eaten...

The truth is, I'm so worn out, I don't even want to see anyone. (major ^^;)

Well, when you're always in work mode, you say, "Eh, who, who are you?" to everyone, but still. (^_^)

Yesterday, one of the staff that I've been seeing every day said to me,

"Ah, it's been a while YOUsan, welcome back." (bwahahah)

Well, that's alright, I guess... (^^;)

Well then well then, have a nice weekend~ I'm off to work, myself~ (^_^)

I'm Home, and recovering... (^_^) (2008.11. 8 04:11)

Actually, I've got a cold. (^^;) I've been staying in bed a long time.

Well, not that I haven't been laid up for a whille, but still. (^_^)


This year, I thought the target was to pass the transition of the seasons without incident.

My nose is itching urgently, and my throat is rattling, so it was a swift attack with medicine, nurishing myself as much as I pleased, taking a break even from Billy, (^_^) trying not to do so much harsh daily work,

although, the effects of such great efforts were non-existant, and it came on with a great thud. (^^;)

These days, my physical condition wasn't entirely good, but my throat's damaged now. So my vigilant attitude in trying not to let it reappear all came undone.

However, it has been truly cold, hasn't it... I, as I expected, have completely not been able to get any preparations for winter done. (major (^^;) )

Well, I'm predicting that I won't be at home much this winter, (^_^) so I guess people who prepare before spring have it the better way. (^_^)

Everyone please be careful of catching colds. This year's colds are really amazing things.

Well then well then, have a nice weekend.

P.S. Speaking of colds, even if you are careful, you might still catch one... (^^;) I've really arrived at a precious time...

The sample arrived. (2008.10.30 03:48)

The usual stock has arrived. (^_^)


In here, we've crammed in everything from these 10 years... Thinking about it like that makes me all choked up.

1999, the year we left home and did whatever we wanted without taking it too seriously...

In those days, I had normal work, too, and there were many mediocre days. Only, I wanted to lend my strength to my friends in their tight spots,

and so I headed to the capital with a feeling like, 'I should live at least one year in Tokyo, this human life is so long.' Well, I had as much savings as anyone else, I guess. (^_^)

Since then, it's been ten years of daily hell... (^_^)

At the time, I never imagined staying ten years in this place.

When I try to look back, no matter what my motivation was, I think when it comes to humans, the strength of their actions is everything.

Of course, there was more anxiety than hope. I was in unknown world, an unknown land, with so many unknown things.

But nothing can happen if you don't motivate yourself, you know. If you stay still, your dreams will forever be dreams.

Everyone, please don't give up on your dreams, start off with that first step. If you change your enviroment, you change yourself, and if you change yourself, your enviroment changes too. Everything depends on your own behavior.

When I write it down like that, it sounds so self important, but in reality, I've been frustrated and lost plenty of times myself.

But I kept at it frantically these 10 years, and met all of you, and this is my joy, my pride, my everything.



I hope I'll be able to commemorate the 10 year anniversary of this site...

... I'd better really try harder if I hope to do that, huh. (^_^)



Always, thank you... We packed in 10 years of love...

A Mountain of Machines (2008.10.24 22:42)

Now then, how many are there I wonder...? (^_^)


Those engineers among us should be drooling. I'm just a guy who wants a bunch of these things. (^_^)

Incidentally, the one with the blue lights is my amp. I say, My amp, I guess, but the genuine article is out for repairs, so I'm renting another one of the same kind.

As with musical instruments, even though this is a machine, even though it's the same kind, each one has a different sounds, so even the same amp gives a slightly different sound.

I think it's best if you test their entire stock on hand if you can when you buy musical instruments and equipment. The clerks will hate you (^^;) but it can be hit or miss with the difference of sounds.

But this goes for all electrical appliances, you know.

It doesn't mean that it's broken necessarily, but maybe the pitch is a little off or something...

Of course, you can't evaluate your home telephone until you use it at home, but still. Plus, you can't really compare at that point.

Well, you want to declare 'Victory' on your home phones and your machines and your musical instruments as much as possible. You're going to have them for a long time after all.

Although, I have heard that Quality control seems to be an uban legend. I've had pretty good luck in my purchasing thus far. (^_^)

Speaking of home telephones, actually... Recently, I've been wanting a TV... It's a daily concern. (^_^) Not that I have time to watch anything. (^^;)

Well then everyone, nice weekend. I'm back to work. (^_^)

Swee~t Life (^_^) (2008.10.19 13:36)

I haven't written you guys for a while. (^^;)

There was a long long period of seclusion... that continues to this day. (big (^^;) )

As does the eating of sweets in the studio, as ever. (bwahahah)


Actually, I'm so secluded I don't even go to the convenience store, but the delightful staff (^_^) goes to buy the latest desserts instead. (^_^)

This is my latest fav, Raw Choco Rice Cakes. Sticky rice cakes and chocolate is a splendid collaboration of east meets west, and the elegant sweetness of white chocolate, and also some kind of indescribable tender texture...

A-yup... A winner!! A Massively Delicious Score!!

Eh, the corner was different, you know. (^_^) It was hidden with MGG. (^^;) *

I'm eating nothing but sweet things... In case you're starting to worry that, everyone, my enlistment still continues (^_^) and check out my amino case,


which has been drastically reduced. (*joy*)

It's little by little, but I am certainly headed for flap erradication. (^_^)

However, it's really not quite disappearing... Well, it took me many years to raise that little flab... (^^;)

I'm getting my physical strength up for the tour, but if I can get rid of flab, it'll be two birds with one stone. (^_^)


Eh? ... Stop eating sweets, you say? ...


But... They're a recording must-have. Yeah. (^_^)

Anyone looking to nurish their brains and stay awake should try some. (^_^)


Well then well then, have a nice day off~


[ * well, these couple of sentences here are the first ones in a while i've had to say this about, but they're kinda fuzzy for me. maybe if he would use some kind of ... i don't know ... STANDARD JAPANESE. ever notice how when he hangs out w/ gaku for a long time, his japanese goes odd? ... ok, so no, i guess you wouldn't anyhow. the other thing i'd like to mention here is, jesus? i mean ... jesus? really? damn i can't wait for that thing to come out. ]

Corset? (2008.10.10 03:05)

No... It's just a stoop correction belt. (^^;)

Lately, I've been thinking about steadily and seriously correcting my body's ill, with all the trips back and forth this week between engagements chiroprators and chiropratics,

this... well, it's not very effective... (*waterfall of tears*) My head, my shoulders, my back, none of my pain has been relieved...

Of course, if I were to have to knock out the individual causes one by one, I think I'd be here for a whole lifetime,

so I tried the back brace first as a self-challenge. (^_^)

But this, well...

The power of my stoop passes far beyond that of the brace. (^^;) I've got a hunch I'll be wearing it for a while...

Uh-huh... Again with the pointlessness... So I say, half resigned to my fate.

But comparing the days when I don't have the belt on to the days when I do, it's tiny, but I have this hunch that my shoulders are getting stiffer, you know. (^_^)

So I'll try to keep it on for a whole day. (^_^)

But still... All my friends have gotten used to seeing my back brace form, so they all come at me like, 'YOU, something's changed about your posture...' (^_^)

And definitely now, people with stooped back should take care of themselves... Without fail, be good to your head, your shoulders, and your back.

As for me, I'll be conducting a series of live tests of relaxation degrees for a while. (^_^)

Well then well then~
