11/08′s live is held by our company’s DEPT4 for this year’s DEBUT and PREVIEW artists. Today I went to the practice room and practiced nervously. Today’s morning’s meeting was very successful. Oricon’s staffs received us warmly and at the same time listened quietly to me while I was singing. Thank you alot guys..

After the practice, we chose to take subway instead of cars because of the traffic jam. If the staffs took me in the wrong direction >.<
Rest early… charge the battery to welcome a wonderful tomorrow…

NOTE: There are pictures posted when she went to take the subway. But I’m lazy to post sooo of you want to see them please go to her blog~

Please DO NOT take this out!

I can’t sleep, am I worried about something? Or just my brain is blank. 14 days left… This might be the biggest change in my life. All those year’s hard work, I’ll be leaving my old school (university), my country, to step into the society for the first time. Who I can rely on? No one, only by myself.. I have already prepared my mind for anything. Facing life’s long road… I express it correctly. The only thing I can do now is to do the best on everything I’m doing right now, and wait… I’m already used to the loneliness, miss my family, mis BOBI. I miss my hometown’s super spicy winter food (火锅 – Hot pot). I miss (TN: I think some teacher). Suddenly I feel I’m going alone to Shangri-La… Staying there peacefully for a while and living in my own world. Can’t I live in my own world for every?? Don’t disturber me, don’t disturber my peaceful life… in my own world.

Title: 15 days left… Super busy!

Rested 2 afternoons, things were accumulated for today’s schedule. I arrived home at 11PM. Today I felt really exhausting.. But still, thinking that everything finished successfully it makes me happy.

Today noon’s vocal lessons, I had 2 free hours so I wento to shooping. Sooo cool! Afternoon I had photoshoot/interview for MINI magazine. Evening I had a interview for CHANNEL A. I recorded a massage for different medias, and I saw a Taiwanese and HK music program in the list, makes me feel very happy.

Today I have to rest early, tomorrow I will go to meet Oricon’s staffs officially. And I have to sing, seems very important… And there’re plenty of other things to do. OK, I’m going now. Goodnight.

Japanese blog: she said thanks for everyone’s care for her because she was kinda ill and now she’s much better. Then she said almost the same thing. She only added that she got some food from the MINI staffs and it was delicious and she’s very happy and gave thanks.

Title: 15 days left… random things.
Date: 2007/11/06
From: Alan’s Chinese Blog

It’s raining, I’m at home. Few hours ago, I went to drink coffee with staffs, I brought with me Japanese homework, and I was just starting doing them and one of the waitress came and said: I’m sorry but we’re about to close. So we went home.

Recently I have been listening to some old songs, during certain period in my life I started to like a song, and listen to it repeatedly… then stopped. Now I’m listening to it again, and got another kind of feeling. And will remember certain things and people that happened and met during that period. Listening to the rain’s sound… I’m writing some random stuffs.

Some friends suggested me to start writing my own memoirs, till someday make it a movie. Maybe later in my life, right now I don’t have the energy to do that. If there’s still time, I think I will.

During our lifetime, we have our precious ones and also those we have missed. We have those who have helped us and those who we feel sorry to. I want to thank Heaven for letting me to meet all those good people during my growing period, they helped me to become a better person. Also, I met some not that good people, thanks them for allowing me to grow up. I’ve built in my heat a solid castle, to protect from all those bad things, I consider myself a pretty strong person.

Life won’t stop for a certain person or stop on certain things. My parents and friends always told me not to be proud when you have won, or to be sad when losing (TN: not very sure about this >.<). Things won’t be always good during your life. If I succeeded, in the same time, I have prepared myself for the worst result, so if I failed I’ll still accept it. I’m Buddhism, so I believe everything is set up by Heaven, the most important thing is that you have given your best, so you won’t have regrets.

Although I haven’t experienced that much due to my young age, so you would probably find this post funny. But I want to tell myselg always to have a normal heart. If something is yours, it won’t go anywhere because it belongs to you. If it’s not yours, then you won’t get it no matter how hard you try to get it.

I hope that those who’re having a hard time and those who feels loving someone is hard see my post will feel better and live better. Life won’t stop for anyone or any issue. instead of looking back, why don’t we look forward? If you failed at something why do you keep thinking about it? The more you think, more angry will you get and you won’t find a answer to it. Instead of thinking about that, why don’t you think how to do better the next thing? Why to think about someone who makes you sad or betrayed you? Instead of hate him/her, think it as a good thing for allowing you to wake up. In this kind of situation you have to wish him/her happiness without hate. What you have to care more is that you were happy next to him/her. Close your eyes and think, isn’t it?

To those people who are older than me, I hope that apart from working, you can do more leisure activities. Exercise more your body. Don’t be very stressful because of work, it doesn’t worth for it. Go outside on weekends to breath fresh air. Play and sing songs, gather with friends. Everything based on your health.

To those who are young like me, I hope you guys can learn more things while you are young, and don’t forget about your activities and hobbies that you like because of busy school activities. Read more books, watch more movies, listen to more good songs. Learning a new language is a very enjoyable thing, maybe you will need it someday. On vacations you should go out, take pictures and record videos. I think it’s not good to stay at school always, to be outgoing is not a bad thing. Someday you will have to leave school to enter the society.

To those who just began to work, I’m sure that some of you are not adapted to it. You may think that the society is not like what you have imagined. When you started to work there could be things that you are not used to or you feel upset about, don’t worry, things will get better by the time. Everyone start like this, no matter how hard or how tiring it is. If you get bored then bring some books to read. The most important thigs: 1. Ask some old co-workers for helps and tips to improve yourself. In front of older staffs you have to act humble. 2. On workplace must be low profile, because you are newbie, everyone is watching you. 3. Be diligent, so everyone think you are a hardworking young people.

Those are all my own views, you can take them into consideration. I’m a newbie too, I’m learning to. If you have a good suggestion you can tell me too.

I’m going to rest, it’s tooo late.

Me: OMG! I can’t believe I translated such a long long long entry!!! Feel sooo tired right now, but I have another one >.<

Anyway, let’s see what Alan said in this entry. Please DO NOT take this out!

Title: 16 days left… Mood–Calm

Writing down lyrics…

Because of the dysentery, I didn’t went to my language class this morning (TN: I think she’s talking about Japanese lessons). In the afternoon I had photoshoots/interviews for different music magazines. I practiced 谷村新司’s song <Flower> (TN: NO idea who is he) for the Osaka’s concert (TN: Seems she’s going to sing that song with someone). Coping the lyrics…

Tomorrow I’ll be having photoshoots/interview with MINI magazine and some others magazines. Also I have vocal lessons.

Today I’m practically recovered, got more medicine from our company’s clinic, then I went home. Feeling calm and living calmly.

TN ＝Translator’s Note

Japanese blog: she said almost the same. That she’s getting better and she’s taking some medicines and only 16 days left and she’s kinda nervous but she’s enjoying the moment and the feelings~

Me: I’m lazy to post the pictures ^^;; If you want to see them, please go to her blogs~~

Title: 17 days left… With dysentery… (TN: actually I didn’t know this word so I used google translator)
Date: 2007/11/04
From: Alan’s Chinese Blog

Today’s recording was very successful, it’s the shortest one so far. But, today I don’t know what I’ve ate, I’m with dysentery, I went to the toilet many times… *shy face* If you look today’s picture I’ve dehydration (TN: she also said how her face and nose is different, I don’t know how to translate that exactly, sorry). I’ve taken some medicine so I think tomorrow I’ll be ok.

Good news! This week’s Origina Confidence（オリコン ）, a very important music magazine in Japan, in their USEN J-POP Chart <Ashita e no Sanka> is No.8. According the website below, it’s in No.8 since last week and the previous week was in No.12. I’m really happy! http://www.usen.com/rank/jpop.php
Between the TOP 30, I think I’m the only one who haven’t released the debut single yet and already got this kind of position. Staff’s are also very happy! But I can’t be proud, I have to do my best!! But I’m very happy ^^

TN=Translator’s Note.

NOTE: Once again, the Japanese entry of the same day was the same.

Practicing before the recording.

Listening to music, reading magazine and surfing online of free time.
