Happy birthday Yaracchi ♥♥♥ shhhh it's still the 1st here in Italy


[#40] 2013/01/23 - Part 40
The other day we had the first full rehearsal.

Or so I say but there are scenes that aren't defined yet and there are sequences whose choreography isn't ready yet so we felt as if we were rehearsing it from beginning to end just to see check it would flow in its entirety.

My first SHOCK in 3 years. My first rival role in 3 years.

I'm all fired up!

I feel as if it got more intense than three years ago, from the battle scenes to the new scenes~

I'm still building my Yara, but new emotions, different from those of last time, are born inside of me. As I thought, everyone's perceptions are different and the words I just said, Yara couldn't say them... I have started feeling this kind of things~. And when I am not sure about how to say something Koichi-kun notices it and gives me advice. He’s so reliable.

Beverly Maeda-san has a huge presence, too. It’s actually the first time since Dream Boys that I act with her so I’m really happy. Beverly-san is really lovely. Uekusa-san was, too, but Beverly-san has some kind of tranquilizing effect so she just needs to be there for us to feel calm, she has such an aura. I feel that this side of her also appears when she’s acting. And the caramel pop corn she gave us as present were too delicious（≧∇≦） I bought more online as soon as I got back home XD thank you.

Santos Anna-chan. She’s self-studied dance. ...and yet she’s so good! It’s amazing that she can dance like that without formal education. Her talent is amazing, isn’t it? Can’t lose to her... Matsu.

All of us went to eat yakiniku the other day and improved our team strength!!



Tongue.

I always feel more energetic when I eat meat.

It was fun to see Kishi bullying Matsuzaki a little when we were there.

I feel like our SHOCK company has strengthened our bond.

Thanks.....luv..u

Hello~

How are you?

I'm well, but my heart feels a little uneasy. I wonder what's that. I think it's mostly because SHOCK is starting soon, but I want to shout "◯× □♯・×△◯・＊・〆♪！！" XD

Even I don't understand well why.

Men whose blood sign is AB often have this kind of feelings... But I'm okay, I've burned a little incense of the smell I like before coming to work.

I'll do it today, too.

Ah, by the way. He's already gone back, but until the other day Travis was in Japan for SHOCK's coreography. During that period it was everyday a Travis day, but it all looked pretty stressful...

Hm? "looked pretty stressful"?

You over there, you thought "he's talking as if it was none of his business!", right? Actually because of my role I don't dance much to Travis numbers~. So I was watching Koichi-kun or 4U rehearse till they were in little pieces. They were really cool. Gave me goosebuuuumps! I feel as if he blew new fresh air into SHOCK! Travis and Stacy are really good at pulling out each person's energy. Watching them makes me learn so much! Look forward to iiiit.

Of course, other than that, the numbers by Kawasaki Etsuko-sensei have been renewed and are really nice, and I feel as if there's more and more really fun numbers.

I'm really happy that thanks to SHOCK I could get in touch with Travis and Etsuko-sensei, two people that I respect and love.

So, just a little before the start....

I'll do my b..........

Ah!

Before that

My twenties are going to end in a short time...

This day eventually came.

I'll be 30?

Unbelievable.

The last day Travis was in Japan us main cast went to eat with him and as a special guest Higashiyama-san came too, but even Higashiyama-san said
"Eeeh, Yara's going to be thirty!? Oh, true! Yara is thirty..."
he was surprised too.

So, these last days of my twenties.

I'll enjoy them to the fullest!

See you then.



This is the donbinmushi (T/N food steam-boiled in an earthenware teapot) we ate at Travis's goodbye party.

When we went to LA for the choreography of "Higher" Koichi-kun and I ate it for the first time and fell in love with it, so when it came out at Travis's party we were very excited.

Koichi-kun loved it so much that...
I still can't forget how he legendarily ordered
"Please give me all the donbinmushi you have"
XD

Thanks.....luv..u

[#42] 2013/02/01 - Happy B'day!!

Today is my thirtieth birthday!!

Thank you.

If I can keep chasing after my dreams the way I do it is because I have the support of so many people.

I am thankful to my family who supported me for thirty years.

I am thankful to all of you who cheer for me.

I want to go forward from now on, too, without ever forgetting this feeling.

I'm really glad I could write a message to you on the day I was born!

Thank you.

And please take care of me from now on, too.

Yara Tomoyuki
