Just a little bit. It's truly small.

Just now when I looked at the time by chance, it was 1:23.
Somehow I'm happy. (*-ω-)

1 Gnocchi

It's Miku. Today I went out to practice, and I discovered a short cut!! I've always gone up and down a long flight of stairs, but now that is over. This is nyappy!! It seemed like I was going to be late, but thanks to this, I made it just in the nick of time. o(>∀<)o Hee, hee. But recently, I've been worried. Multiplied by the sleepy feeling that comes from allergies, I've been extremely groggy x2. As a diversion of mine, I want to do judo!! Urya! o(>∀<)o

The 99 yen shop is God

It's nyappy o(≧ω≦)o Miku. On the way back from the studio, I was driving cheerfully when I heard a siren behind me. (>_<) When I noticed the patrol car passing, I saw that meter said 90 km (*_*) I pretended I didn't notice and continued driving carefully, and the patrol car went somewhere else. o(>∀<)o He's a friendly policeman. Fine are painful!! And now, I went to the rumored 99 yen shop at the cafe. I've gone in several times, but this was my first time buying food, and I was surprised. o(>∀<)o My favorite Lemon Water is 99 yen!! Furthermore, cold udon was also 99 yen!! It's a store that I'm somewhat grateful for. (;_;) Our dinner only cost 200 yen (￣○￣;) Now I know why the 99 yen shop is God.

"It's Monday, you know." "Huh, huh?"

"Let's see, I want to ride a dolphin."
THis cloudiness seems like it's a change from the usual.
...No, it's like it's painted.
...No, bubbling speech is the beginning of all this.

Kiteretsu Day

It's nyappy o(≧ω≦)o Miku. Today was a one-man at O-East. It was amazingly fun. I was moved by it!! Furthermore, it was Mom and Dad's birthday o(>∀<) I was an amazingly happy person because I was able to sing in front of lots of people. It was a feeling like "Thank you for giving birth to me". ANyhow, today was a day in which I was full of gratitude. Cafekkos and members, staff-san, my family, I truly thank you all very much. And so, I'm going to sleep. Have good dreams, everyone!! Goodnight.


April 7th, 2005
O-East ended. We returned home.

A feeling I can't put into words, right now, my heart is full, my stomach is full. My head is in a daze.
And so, since I've been thinking mroe and more interesting things, look forward to them.
2005 has just started.
I will do my best.
Sorry for being incoherent.

Mighty Mouse

Thanks for all the hard work. It's Teruki. The tour's final show was completed without incident. Lots of people came to see us, and I was really happy. Thank you! It's already April, but I think the An Cafe of this year is starting from today's one-man at O-East. Because I definitely want to progress, everyone also cheer for us. Yoroshiku death! (I'm in your care!)

Crying. Bou.

It's Bou. o@(・_・)@o Today we did a fun and emotional live! When I see everyone's faces or have hands extended toward me, I can really forget about what's wrong and am able to become happy. Thank you very much. I'm also thinking of the people who unfortunately couldn't come today! I won't forget that even though they're far away, they are sending us a cheer! Thank you (;_;) Everyone who roots for us is our comrade! You support us. I love you!
ANd so...I arrived home, and I made the curry that I recieved from the fans! Since I didn't want it to be regular curry, I put in roasted pork and made it roasted pork curry! Let's eat (^_^)/ Please φ(^0^)▽

Kiteretsu Perfume

It's nyappy o(≧ω≦)o Miku. My body hurts all over; it's tough. The tiredness from the one-man came two days later.... I got old!! Right now, Miruku is running free, but she is too energetic. She's unexpectantly fast on her feet. o(>∀<)o Furthermore, recently, even if I hold out my hand, she won't come over much, but she comes to my foot. o(>∀<)o So cute!! Also, I changed perfumes. I highly recommend it. It's a kiteretsu perfume. It's name is Fresh π (Pi). Because the smell is good, everyone should try it.

S-c-a-r-y-s-t-o-r-y

In preparation for the summer mood, let me tell a chilling story.
When An Cafe's Kanon (bass) was in elementary school, there was a camp that was designed by the city for students of different schools to get together.
And so, shy, little Kanon participated enthusiastically. Yes.
The place he stayed on the first day was a cottage almost surrounded by mountains, and I think there were eight people to a cabin.
When night fell, the slightly fascinating feeling of the atmosphere was there. The only light became that of the bug zappers haning here and there.
That night, little Kanon was probably worried that after the lights were turned out, he wouldn't be able to get to sleep easily. He tossed and turned, changing sides many times, waiting for the time to pass. But at the time, he didn't think anything of it.
"Well, someone going to bathroom isn't something I'm interested in," Kanon says.
However, after a while, he thought about it again.... Was there sounds of someone in the process of going to the bathroom? ...Then...


...(◎□◎;)


The sound of the door opening, the sound of footsteps, breathing...

That idiot can be completely heart, and little Kanon told himself that it couldn't be, and he just didn't hear the person go into the bathroom. Mixed in with the quiet blue of the night's darkness, he came to hear the sound of toilet paper being used from the area of the bathroom.
Who was in the bathroom?
Firstly, he tried coutning the people in the room.
One person.
Two people.
Three people.
Four people.
Five people.
Six people.
Seven people.
Huh? Eight people?

I was exactly the right number.
In the moment when he was truly frightened, he heard the sound of the toilet doorknob turning again.
Childish, little Kanon...
...felt like he was being crushed in the tense-like atmosphere.

Then he definitely heard the sound of footsteps moving from teh bathroom to the cottage, crunching as they trampled weeds.
The sound of footsteps stopped outside the cottage.

It's raining here.

I recieved a package from my parents today. My parents sent me various refridgerated food. It's my parent's home-made cooking. It's the best. It's so good. It's completely different from something like convenience story food or family restaurant food. It gives me energy. It eradicates tiredness. I'll do my best. (;_;)

Inoue-san is a good person.

Teruki death. The nameless diary from yesterday was mine. Everyone figured it out properly, you’re amazing (^-^). The one who told me about omitting my name was my neighbor-san. My neighbor Inoue-san is the mother of three kids. She looks incredibly young for her age, and she’s easy to talk to. Like she knew I was in a band, and when I would see her once and a while, she'd tell me, "OO-kun, I saw a magazine." It seems like recently she bought "Amedama Rock" too (laugh). So I signed a poster that was left over and gave it to her. And then today I ran into Inoue-san by chance. She asked, “Did you get the package, OO-kun?” (Inoue-san calls me by my family name), and I replied, “Huh? What are you talking about?” She said, “Um, the one blog about receiving a package from your mother.” It seems like Inoue-san has been reading the blog for a quite a while (laugh). “No way, you didn’t do something like comment on the diary, did you?” I asked. “Well, I wrote on the day you were in Nagoya,” she said (laugh). I’ll check from now on, I have been (^_^;) Inoue-san, you are young.

Are you staying over? Staying over club.

It’s Kanon. Today we were at the studio and then since we are at the studio tomorrow too, which is rare, Miku came and stayed over.
We talked about many various things but I don’t remember what they were.
I guess you would definitely call it idle chatting, so to speak.
It was a small futon, and we slept side by side.
The image is a view of the ceiling from that time.


※The sequel to “S-c-a-r-y-s-t-o-r-y” is currently postponed so that the author can research more.

P.S. That story is true.


April 16th, 2005
By the way, I…

Thanks for all the hard work; Teruki death. This is a story from the other day, but the power went out in the studio while we were practicing. The emergency lights immediately came on, but the mic and speaker still didn’t work so we had no choice but to take a break. We talked about random things, and Kanon-kun let me borrow his bass and taught me a few things, and after about one hour of this, the emergency lights went out and we were in total darkness. In the darkness, when I thought exaggerated things like, “This must be how people lived in ancient times”, Kanon-kun said something really similar, so I felt that humans are somehow amazing. Miku-kun just slept though (^_^;).
This is changing the subject, but when I was sleeping recently, I bit my cheek, and it really hurts…. Even though I say “cheek”, it’s not the outside, it’s the inside of my mouth. Both the left and right sides hurt. (-_-#).

Miku is living like a housewife (-“-;)



Nyappy ↓ It’s little Mikusuke, housewife residing in the Tokyo area. Because my mother went back to her parent’s house, I’m busy with housework and the band o(>∀<)o
I hate hanging out the futon to dry the most. Because my hand cramps. o(>∀<)o
But since I don’t have any band stuff to do today, I went to the much talked about 99Shop when I decided to cook. But they were sold out of Lemon Water, and it was shocking-lemon (;_;) I had no choice but to get C.C. Lemon instead but I didn’t realize that it had 400 more miligrams of Vitamin C than Lemon Water!!
So I bought various things, went home, and made food, and the complete product was these three things!!
Curry, salad, and miso soup. But all of it was made in the microwave o(>∀<)o
However, I elaborated on the curry. I stir-fried butter, spinach, leeks, and rice, and I mixed in mayonnaise and salted cod spiced with red pepper, and then I mixed in a small fried fish!! I think that everyone is thinking that this will definitely taste bad. You're thinking, "Mixing everything together doesn't mean it'll be good!!" Yep. It’s definitely true. o(>∀<)o But it was delicious!!

I can’t quit; I can’t stop – Kanon**

Today I made a song, I’m nodding in agreement, and I went to visit my little brother’s house all of sudden, tada! After watching videos of Weekly Shounen Jump serializations, “Prince of T” and “-ruto”, because I had a pen and paper, I wrote down the various blueprints for the band. (I'm going to make a copy of it and give it to the members.)
If I had my computer, I could have written it much faster, and in the inner depths of my heart, I got all flared up like Sasuke in his quest for power.
Kanon was tightly grasping the Playstation controller with these fiery thoughts in his chest.


The end.

**I can't quit; I can't stop is a shrimp cracker jingle, FYI

Drummer’s meeting

Yesterday three drummers drank! The two people that I went drinking with are incredibly more talented people than I am (T_T) I think that I too have to be better than I am now. But it was fun anyway! If I remember correctly, we only talked about drums a little bit. I was drunk so I don’t remember very well. (>▽<) But I think that I really like those two people (*^_^*) But when dawn came after the night was over, my elbow and heel hurt for some reason….

Rec. It's a Recording. I am different.

Sooo, it’s Kanon.
I am in a recording studio right now. It is in the basement, but I worked hard to climb the stairs and went outside, and I'm gazing at the moon I can’t see while I write.
It’s a lie. While intermittently looking at the moon I can’t see, I look at the main page of my phone and write. Ahh. Right now, Miku should be singing enthusiastically in the basement. I’ll be looking forward to the completion of it, right? Right.
Because we been here all day, there isn’t much to write about, but somehow when I write in the diary, I feel like I’m connected to everyone, and I feel at ease.
Thank you for reading all this idle chit-chat.
Somehow.

Ahh, the night is still quite cold (´ーωー)=З
Well, when the CD comes out, please listen. Goodnight.

Little housewife Mikusuke has graduated

It’s nyappy ↑ o(≧ω≦)o Miku. The recording was able to be carried out safely o(>∀<)o Thanks for all the hard work. The song we recorded today was a kiteretsu tiramisu song!! If everyone listens to the intro of pretty guitarist, Mr. Bou’s guitar, it will definitely capture your heart. o(>∀<)o As for me, I really tried my best this time, and I feel a sense of accomplishment. And so, everyone look forward to it o(>∀<)o And by the way, just a little while ago, I was half-asleep and I made a mistake. I washed my face and I dried it off with my socks for some reason!! It’s dirty (;_;) Doesn’t everyone do things like this??
And today, my parents came home at last o(>∀<)o Being little housewife Mikusuke was tough. Living alone is impossible, isn’t it?!


April 24th, 2005
I’m nyappy o(≧ω≦)o

It’s nyappy o(≧ω≦)o Miku!! Today was an in-store event. Thanks for all the hard work, everyone. Thank you for a fun time o(>∀<)o I was nervous and I couldn’t say it well, but it was amazingly fun. I love you, cafekkos!! I thought that from the bottom of my heart. Thank you very much for the presents and letters (>_<) I’m grateful. The letter is from Shizuka-chan who is the source of my energy (>_<) Tomorrow, I’m going to read them at my leisure!!
Today, when I was coming back, someone said to me, “Miku-san, I’m nyappy”, and it was embarrassing, but I was happy. When everyone says nyappy, it’s so cute I can’t help but be happy. I am going to bed, believing that nyappy will protect the peace of the world. Goodnight. o(>∀<)o

No Sleep

Teruki death. Thanks for all your hard work on the in-store event today. I’m sorry for the delay m(_ _)m The trouble we gave Like An-san and everyone who came to see us is inexcusable…. But the in-store/one man was the first time in two weeks that we were able to meet everyone so I was happy! The live was also fun, but I like in-stores too. As for the live, I like being with people from all different places. Today was fun. Thank you (^o^)／


April 25th, 2005
Fast Asleep

After the in-store yesterday, there was a meeting at the office. We've never had one before, but today was a really serious meeting. I got exhausted and returned home toward morning, and after a nap, we were supposed to work at the studio from 11:30 onwards. But before my alarm went off, I was woken up by the phone ringing. I thought, “What? Who? Let me sleep.” I picked up my cellphone, but before I could answer, the person hung up. And so I opened my phone and looked, and I was surprised…(?_?) [11:47]. “What is this?!” The person who had hung up the phone had been Miku-kun. When I called him back in a hurry, he said, “Nobody came….” I quickly called Bou-kun. “Nyah…hewo…What is this?! I’m going right now!” said Mr. Bou. Next, I went to the room next door and knocked loudly! “Trouble! We’re late! Wake up!” I yelled in order to wake up Kanon-kun. That my-own-pace guy replied, “Nnn, mya…it’s true.” Eventually, the three of us came in one hour late…. Sorry, Miku-kun, that was inexcusable m(_ _)m Both of my alarm clocks went off properly. Because I don’t have a memory of turning it off, I think that even though it went off, perhaps I didn’t wake up at all…. After the studio, I went to Miku-kun and Bou-kun's house.) I asked them to let me take a bath! Entering a bathtub full of hot water was an amazingly good feeling!

K.O. Kanon

Psychosomatic fever...(´ーωー)=З Cough, cough.


April 27th, 2005
Maybe

Thanks for all the hard work; Teruki death. Today we were at the studio. But Kanon-kun was absent due to the flu. But for me, as a drummer, being in the studio without the bassist is like the Tokyo Giants without Kiyohara or meat without potatoes or "Waratte ii Tomo" without Tamori. Without a bassist, I felt a very unsatisfactory feeling…that’s how I truly felt. I hope he gets better soon. This is a change of subject, but recently the image on my cellphone has changed. I've been having an image of one guitarist without any specific reason, but the other day when I went to Bou-kun, I saw a picture of him wearing a baseball uniform from middle school so I sent that picture to my own phone. I want to show it to everyone! First of all, both Miku-kun and I laughed a lot. I thought about attaching the picture here, but Bou-kun was mad at me so I resisted the urge. (^_^;) One last thing. There’s probably going to be a major earthquake soon. Be careful everyone. I hope nothing happens.


April 29th, 2005
Surprised Donkey

It’s nyappy o(≧ω≦)o Miku!! I hope that Kanon-kun recovers from the flu soon. Recently, when I type "ny" on my phone, "nyappy" comes up as the first suggestion for the word. I use it too much…) Today I got on the scale, and I was a surprised donkey!! I lost 6 kg in two months. It’s coming o(>∀<)o
But the day before yesterday, I was even more surprised. There was blood in my pee (;_;) I was confused so I talked to the other members and other various people!! When I saw it, I felt like I wanted to faint. But since there hasn’t been any since, it seems like I'm okay. o(>∀<)o Sorry for a dirty story!!
Haa, I want to do a live soon!! When there are no lives, it’s boring (>_<)
