alterna – ayumi hamasaki

from fairyland single + (miss)understood album.

If you are afraid of change
Then watch from a distance
If I would get criticized
Whether I did something or not
Then I’ll be myself

Things which were truly
Precious and essential
I had only a few of them
The rest was mostly decoration

Maybe they were like
A kind of armor
To protect myself from all things

If you are afraid of change
Then watch from a distance
If I would get criticized
Whether I did something or not
Then I’ll be myself

If I can say more
Those unnecessary things
Bring about, not any comfort
But feelings of loss

Don’t be mistaken
I’ve not reached my destination
I’ve finally just begun

It’s not something outrageous
Don’t think so hard about it
Yes, in short, aside from the things I want
I don’t need anything else
That’s all

Fate, destiny,
I’ll try to change them
Because I’ve had enough
Of witnessing scary things

If you are afraid of change
Then watch from a distance
If it’s all the same whether I did something or not
Then I’ll be myself

It’s not something outrageous
Don’t think so hard about it
Yes, in short, aside from the things I want
I don’t need anything else
That’s all

The other members’ blogs
already have lots of group photo uploads,
since that’s enough, I’ll restrain myself a little here ^^;

Which means I’ll upload some other photos-  

By the way, we did collabs this time with
THE ALFEE-san on
“Kogarashi ni dakarete”,

Gou Hiromi-san on
“Ringo satsujin jiken”,

and Saitou Yuki-san on
“Yume no naka he”.

For “Ringo satsujin jiken”,
I got to play the part of Kiki Kirin-san (*・Θ-*)

Wow,
we got to see lots of grand artistes perform right in front of our eyes this year again

We had a really happy time ♪

Full of gratitude de-ariyasu （*^Θ^*）

With FNS over,
Momokuri
suddenly feels that much closer 

Finally! (*’-’*)

Everyone~ ♪
Let’s get excited together-

Notes:
1. Gou Hiromi and Kiki Kirin sang “Ringo satsujin jiken” as a duet in the past

Tamai Shiori: FNS Song Festival!

2013 FNS Song Festival!
Has concluded this year too (._.)

We were first invited last year,
and also during summer this year,
so this is our 2nd winter FNS!

FNS Song Festival’s winter edition really
gives one the feeling of the year coming to an end…

But I really like that atmosphere ∩^ω^∩

This year,
we did collabs on

“Kogarashi ni dakarete”
with THE ALFEE-san,
“Ringo satsujin jiken”
With Gou Hiromi-san,
and “Yume no naka he”
with Saitou Yuki-san!

Wow, my heart was racing
because I was so nervous, but I had lots of fun in the end!

Everyone was so kind,
such wonderful people (*^^*)

I got to see my two cherished Sakurai-sans too…
It’ll be great if we can do collabs with them someday… ☆

Lots of grand artistes performed,
and it was a wonderful music festival ( ^ω^ )

Kuma-mon was there too,
so we took a photo with him! And miwa-chan too… ∩^ω^∩

And then, I got to meet
Oohara Sakurako-chan, whom I’ve always wanted to meet
I was so happy *(^o^)/* We’re the same age too!

Thank you to all the other artistes too!

And to everyone who watched the show
Thank you ( ^ω^ )

I think many people already feel that the year is coming to a close, but there’s still lots to come in December!!

Let’s have fun till the end of the year-!

Shiorin

Notes:
1. The 2 Sakurais are probably THE ALFEE’s Sakurai Masaru (who Reni-chan cosplayed and kissed) and Arashi’s Sakurai Sho
2. Kuma-mon is Kumamoto Prefecture’s mascot character
3. Oohara Sakurako – singer, actress

Today was the much-anticipated…FNS! (*・ω・*)

To everyone who watched it
Thank you! (`・ω・´)

We had a really happy time 

We did collabs with THE ALFEE-san,
Gou Hiromi-san,
and Saitou Yuki-san! 

Thank you!

It was really such a dream
To be able to attend such a grand party…Almost like a palace ball (*^ω^*)

Just by being together with all those wonderful artistes
Made Aarin so very happy! (*∩ω∩)

The wonderful music and Aarin’s joy
Is that enough to tell of Aarin’s wish for everyone to watch the show?

Aarin wanted to stay all the way until the end too~.

After she left the venue, and continued watching FNS on TV,
she knew that it wasn’t a dream afterall.

She hopes to return to this place again next year~ (*´艸`)

And to achieve that!

She will continue to run on! (^^)

…Together with everyone!
