"I love it" - Sayaka's FC Blog translation [April 27, 2008]

Sayaka has been blogging lately! Three days is a row... @___@

I bring one of them now =)

I wanted to do two, but the other one needs more analysis XD

I love it ♪-Akimoto Sayaka

I finished my work-★
I'm going to present you what I've lately been looking forward-!
That is...
The freshness of strawberry smoothie ♪
The first one drinking it was Kojipa so I met it because of her (゜o゜)★
Light and delicious!
But... Since one cup is ¥400, I can have up to twice a week (LOL)
I have it a prize for special days (>_<)
That's all for today ♪

-sayaka-
____________________________________

Besides finding this blogging cute, it got me thinking... ¥400 isn't that much, right? How much do these girls earn? How come she cannot buy more than 2 per week because of the price? XD



I love you, Sayaka *^___^*

Himawari 1 DVD "Boku no Taiyou" - 僕の太陽

Himawari 1 DVD, "Boku no Taiyou", was released on Wednesday (April 23).

One of the songs I was waiting was "Lay Down". I had seen the preview and... Wow, sexy.

Some nice person uploaded the vids in youtube, so I'll post the video here for you to judge.



What do you think now? :D

As Heiwa said: "This is a song made for Sayaka." She owns the song. If you read somewhere else that some other person owns Lay Down, you're being cheated, then. Sayaka is the one who controls this song, let's face it. Another friend of mine said: "She's a badass and she fuckin knows it."

Of course I give a special prize to Sae. But Sae never surprises me, she acts cool too when she has to. I like the transformation she has on the stage. Sae, you rule.


If you like this song, why don't you buy the DVD? You won't regret.

Oishii Timing - おいしいタイミング

I still don't know/have read what's about, but Sayaka will participate in a musical called "Oishii Timing" (Delicious Timing).

http://www.urbanforest.jp/event/oishii.html

From June 6 to June 8. Anyone going? ^^; Damn, I wish I could be there.


Still, Sayaka is getting attention little by little, that's good. That shows she's professional and talented.

Sae about Himawari 2 and Sayaka's support.

Baby Sae idolizes Sayaka. And if we already suspected that, her last FC blogging (April 19) only confirmed it.

Sae wrote about the end of Himawari and the future with Team K's 4th stage.

Here's an extract of her writing, the part that touched me most.

For me, this 2nd Himawari stage really was...
A "can't let the dream die" stage.... [*1]

I wasn't able to be in the lessons, so at first I thought I'd be impossible for me (;_;)

Many I times I thought about why if Sayaka had the same schedule than me, she was trying her best even until her body couldn't resist anymore.

In those moments, I thought Sayaka might be thinking:
"My dream cannot stop here."

So, seeing a Sayaka like that [being so persistent] made me think:
"I won't be defeated! I cannot let my dream stop here, either!!" (>_<)
At that time, if Sayaka hadn't been passing through the same as me...
I think I wouldn't have been that persistent. (>_<)
I really thank you, Sayaka.


Note:
[*1]: Sae makes reference to the title of Himawari 2: "Yume wo Shinaseru wake niwa ikanai," which means: Can't let the dream die.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now that I think of it, it must have been very hard for Sae and Sayaka. They were filming Ouji at that time probably, and they had no time to go to the lessons. Add to that Sae going to school, and maybe much more stuff.

That's why they didn't appear at the first performances, that why Sayaka used to apologize in her blog and used to say she still couldn't act in the way she really wanted.

SaeYaka... Always fighting. I cannot but to admire them even more now.

SaeYaka in Honey Girl

Honey Girl (ハニーガール) is a Japanese magazine. It specializes in fashion and a 100% girls issue, of course.

It wasn't an important magazine for until... Some days ago when Sae wrote in her FC Blog, that she and Sayaka had been modeling for that magazine. Sae ended up writing about how cute Sayaka looked that day of the shot... Hmmm, Sae =)

So well, the issue they'd be appearing was the May one and thanx to a benevolent soul, I was able to see the pictures!

Gosh! They are incredible! Sayaka and Sae as models are just superb! Both tall, both beautiful, but perfect.

We can see Sayaka wearing pink! That's why Sae said Sayaka looked cute. All the shots are dominated by pastel colors and they give a retro atmosphere. Sae's hair indeed looks retro. Awesome!

There's nothing to say. With models like they, I'd buy all the clothes promoted in that magazine!



Thank you lamenth for the scans ^___^

Sayaka in MUJACK

My beloved Sayaka promoted herself today in her FC Blog entry. Haha! Way to go Sayaka!

Mujack is a music program from Kansai TV. Looks like not everybody has access to this channel, as Sayaka herself said, but she even gave the solution (BS Fuji, I think).

The important thing is... That she will be the "assistant" of the show. Today (April 18) and also next Friday! And maybe many other Friday's!

I'm reading the description of the show in its own web site and says that the guy in glasses and Sayaka will receive famous artists and will talk with them, etc. Like any other music show XD

But, you know... the big difference between Mujack and the others is... SAYAKA AKIMOTO.

People, I'd give a kidney to see that. :P

Help me internet!



P.S: Look at the pic... She's wearing a necktie! OMG >__<

Living is Wonderful - Akimoto

I don't know if this is going to become an habit from mine but I felt like translating Sayaka's entry at the FC Blog.

I made it for Stage48, but I want to keep the record in here.

My dear Sayaka, sometimes I think she should be a poet *sighs*


Living is Wonderful - Akimoto

Long time no see.
Himawari Gumi is going to finish soon.
When I think about it, there were many things in Himawari.
Happy things, fun things, a lot of stuff.
There were moments when I think bothered the other girls (:_;)
The other day something really pleasant happened.
In the middle of a conversation, Yukari and Hiichan said "It'll feel lonely when the team splits. We don't want it to get separated."
We were really happy when we heard that.
Even some of the girls were about to cry.
But they didn't. (LOL)
Even during the performances we had eye contact and we were supporting each other, and we made good performances.
That's because a performance is not something in solitary.
There are moments when you feel smashed and that's why your partners are so great.
It's great when we try our best again because of the moments where we thought we are not alone. (>_<)
I picked some quarrels with Takamina in Himawari (LOL)
Takamina is a true friend (LOL)
I want to quarrel more with her (·_·)
Sooo this is my second favorite song:
"Ikirutte Subarashii."
I think I want to dance it like crazy in today's show.

SAYAKAAAAAAAAAAAA! Blog more often. I love your blogging. I love reading you =)

Tadashii Ouji no Tsukurikata Visual Book "Seifuku Girls"

My Ouji PB finally arrived. I ordered through Amazon Japan together with the Team K Visual Book Heiwa wanted.

The package arrive in only 4 days! But the Customs stopped the package for a week so I couldn't release it until today (after paying USD$25, crap).

I had seen previews of the Sayaka pictures in Stage48 and she looked so pretty that I decided to buy it. And ohhh I don't regret. The PB itself is awesome! Is really cute! No, wait. More than cute. Whoever created the PB itself is a great designer. Every picture is perfect. And even though I was not interested on the other girls I must say that I've also enjoyed their pictures.

About Sayaka. Nothing to say. She looks perfect. Every picture of her in this book is priceless. The big and the little pictures. All of them. I'm really amazed.


There is a little Sae, too. And even though is not that much, the few ones are fantastic, too.

I'm glad I bought. The book also contain a little interview to Sayaka, I'll try to translate it when I have time. I read a bit last night and it was very interesting.

So I recommend BUY. It's not that expensive and every picture worths.

The day when Sayaka had two letters in her hands.

I must admit this is one of the best days ever in life. A dream come true.

I've had a smile stuck on my face the whole day and I don't think any bad stuff can erase it in at least 3 days.

Remember me (Ange) and Heiwa sent our fan letters and gifts to Sayaka last Friday?

Ok. Today I went to visit AKB48 Official Fanclub Blog as I do every morning (ok, I actually check it every... 1 hour), the first check of the day.

"Hmmm Mariko, Mariko, Mariko... Rina, nice! Chocolove pictures!... SAYAKA! Damn, no picture today," I thought.

I prepared myself to read... My eyes became HUGE when I read the word 外国 [gaikoku] (foreign country).

Yes, Sayaka had read our letters. I could feel it. My heart began to beat fast, my hands began to shake. Kind of nervous reaction I had!

Translation as follows:

Big Dreams! -Akimoto Sayaka-

Hello!- ★
I'm having fun every day.
(Some joke I didn't get)

Recently, the letters I've received from people at overseas have increased.
I'm tremendously happy! (>_<) I'm really excited about the fact of AKB48 support has surpassed the national borders. Even more, there are letters written in Japanese with a lot of effort. No matter if they are from Japan or overseas, the fact of people supporting me makes me really happy.


After that, she spoke about her family =)


Isn't that proof enough? As I said in Stage48, I know. Call it female instinct. Call it deductions.

1. We sent our stuff on Friday via a super fast and reliable courier. The package surely was there on Tuesday or Wednesday. Good timing for the package be inspected by the staff and Sayaka receiving it.

2. I wrote in Japanese. 6 pages @___@ That's a lot of effort. If you don't believe it, ask my hand.

3. C'mon. We are girls, we live at the end of the map. Heiwa sent best gift ever. Sayaka must have been impressed enough, so she had to post about it! I think girls have to be careful about talking of what they receive. They cannot give importance (publicly) to certain letters or gifts they get. So I never expected a detailed mention about our letters. Thus, this little and moving mention is enough for me.

4. There is a Sayaka (female) wota blog I always check and comment in. Today, this girl dedicated and entry to me saying: "Ange-sama, did you read Sayaka's blog? Looks like she received the letters!"


I firmly believe Sayaka has the letters and gifts in her hands. And I strongly believe she is going to appreciate them, because for me, she's a person that treasures every little thing she gets.

I'm happy. Beyond my imagination and yours.

2 Fan Letters from 2 Fan Girls

Finally! The day has come. After weeks asking Heiwa to have her present ready, we've met to send our fan letters to Sayaka.

For everyone who reads this blog, please, kiss the envelopes and gifts!

First, the gift from Heiwa:

Wow. I must confess I'm really envy about her gift. Really. This is such a great needlework. She made several Sayakas... Bingo!, Kiwi wa Pegasus, Natsuki from Ouji, Romance Irane!, and Blue Rose. Plus, she made a Sae in Bingo for Sayaka give it to her. I clap it. It's really awesome. Sayaka is surely gonna love it.
The other picture shows the envelope of Heiwa's letter and the wrapping of the gift.




Now, my gift.

I feel a bit bad, I must recognize it. I've never been good at hand-made stuff (I was always getting bad marks at school when it came to arts) so trying to make something with my own hand would have been a blunder. People always say that hand-made stuff is the best gift, and that bought stuff is crappy... Kind of unfair for us, the non-talented ones. So I threw myself to look for a special gift in shops. And trust me I found it. I was destiny, somehow, I feel the gift found me =)

I wrote my letter in Japanese. It took me a while! I threw a lot of sheets coz I kept making mistakes with kanjis T_T

But that's it.


Wish us luck. This is gonna travel on Friday ;)
