Dear YUI, ありがとう

The first thing that comes to mind while I try to re-write this letter of gratitude is I hope one day I can translate it fully into Japanese so that it will retain the meaning that I would like it to.
Watching your interviews, concerts; listening to your music, makes me smile. Not only are you beautiful, but so strong and awesome~ You really are amazing. 
When I read the translations of your songs I know you're singing with your heart, singing for yourself and for your fans. And for that I want to thank you a thousand times.
You saved me, a thousand times and more. When I walk through the park, when I'm laying on my bed, when I'm going through challenges, you and your music are always with me. Your talent has given me the strength and courage.
When people ask me my favorite song that you sing, I become so troubled because I fall in love with every single one of them. I might have to split my love for each of your songs but they are still overflowing~ 
My friend gave me "I Loved Yesterday" as a Christmas present, and I would also like to thank her along with this message. I hope she gets it.
I watched your interview for going on hiatus. I know you will accomplish all you set out to do.   I hope I can, along with your fans, give you the strength when you need it. Ganbare YUI~ 
Enjoy yourself to the fullest~ We will be here, patiently waiting for your return. Please take care. ^^

With love, 
Emily. 


P.S. I hope I can meet you in person one day~ It would be pretty awesome.  ^^

Spring's Flowers' Serenade


The wind invites me to dance,
So I joyfully gather my friends too;
This might be our last chance
We might forget the sky’s color blue.
A pretty girl in a summer’s pastel dress
Will want to make us hers
And that’ll happen unless
The rainfall occurs.

two-thousand-thirteen

Walking home from the diner, I told myself I have to blog about my first sleepover. Strange enough, I started this post but I haven't got much to say? Nevertheless, it was fun. ^^
I got to see fireworks during New Year's~ it was pretty and not as loud as I remember it to be.

The earliest mornings have no sun

Drinking hot chocolate at 2:05 AM. I wonder if there is someone, at this moment, drinking hot chocolate too. Maybe it is 2:05 PM where they are. Or rather, 2:06. Or, somewhere where time is no restraint, they are drinking it right now?Are they listening to Tonari no Kaibutsu-Kun OST?  I wonder how they look like. What kind of lives have they lead, or will lead? Are they struggling with their vacation homework too? Have the days gotten uncomfortably lonely for them too? I want to meet them. Right now. I want them to share their stories with me, while we both sip hot chocolate.

Wind-blown

As I said the usual words of parting during the holidays, I found myself doing it very briefly. Walking away, my bangs fell over my glasses and disrupted my pace. Our separated goodbyes were so sloppy, like we all knew with certainty we would definitely be able to see each other again when school resumes. Have we taken each other's presence for granted? On purpose or unconsciously? During this occasion or all the time? The thought of it made me uneasy. 
This winter, I am actually having a lot more fun than expected. I've been able to have such interesting conversations and hear funny remarks.  I received my first manga and it is One Piece from the goodest Nancy~ The prankster Eric got me deodorant very nicely wrapped. I only wrote holiday cards for Rachel and Gloria (because they're so cool) and was not expecting to get a card and cute earrings from Rachel. Getting to know these people more and more makes me very excited for college. Not only are they genuine, but so full of such positive human traits, the traits I wouldn't mind acquiring. 
My expectations for the next few days are high. Expectations and I have never shared a mutual relationship. Even so, its not my responsibility to make it work. So, expectations, do your stuff~

I mean, it is kind of a big deal. It won't happen again until...a long time from now.
