Hooray! I did it.

current mood: hot

However, it's already tomorrow......

Our recording has officially begun. Something is weird, I'm so excited.....what the heck?! (laugh)

Every time I start out with a frown so I have to wonder, is this me??

Anyway, all the members are unanimously going all out!! Surely we'll have to, in order to get down this road without everything at the end being full of mistakes. (laugh)

take 1, take 2, take 3, take4, take5, Oh Yeah!

I want to mention that today, ( the 27th ) Tokyo had it's first snow of the season come down!!!!

I know for sure because HPP guitar player Mar e-mailed me an amazing shot of it falling outside. ( laugh )

Wow~ it's beautiful to see~ ( heart )

Of course, having a white world outside while you're inside the studio is a fine thing. Cold outside, but hot inside.....Yeah. (laugh)

Well, the main vocal tracks will be recorded in April. And yet, it turns out that that will be when the tour really heats up. I'll be doing both at the same time. So, I'll have to watch my health and keep my mind focused or I'll be shedding tears before it's over!

For some time now, I've been in love with my Szechuan noodles, but should I start using some self control?.......since it's so spicy. ( laugh )

In regard to my throat and singing voice, maybe I should exclude it from my menu.

The news~

Tomorrow we'll finish working on our pre-professional recording. And, on the 28th, driven by my strong feelings, the recording starts!

As it begins.....I still fear that everyday life. (laugh)

As the recording pattern progresses, I want to post photo's throughout. From start to finish!

I want to show such things as the members being cute and how difficult it can be in the recording studio, right?! (laugh)

But, you'll have to wait!!

The tour is ahead and we're quickly trying to arrange it so that the new song will be ready when the schedule begins. To tell the truth, I'm wanting to do a live show very soon.....really.

After this, the live concerts will increase a lot.

Before long, it appears I have an announcement to publish. (laugh)

At any rate, let's get the HPP members fired up for the recording! Okay!

Bone chilling cold.

current mood: crunk

Last week, construction work started out in front of my house. All the noise they made as they started tearing things up contributed to my lack of sleep. I have to get my sleep and going out makes me nervous.

I think it's colder than usual for this time of year. It makes my head feel dazed and my body feel sluggish. I wonder if I'll burn up the rest of my reserve strength soon?.....

Next week we're scheduled to start recording. I have to submit for the second round, so the tension's likely to go up.........

I guess things will get heated up, if the past is any indication of what lies ahead.

Sometimes there's an unexpected fit of anger and you cry and shout. That's because there are so many things working against you when you're trying to record.

But, if I recall correctly, a person has to be ready because fine things also unexpectedly happen. Lately, I've toughened up. (laugh)

I think it kind of helps me to stay more positive. I don't want to be praising myself, so I'm sorry for the low tone this conversation has taken. I beg your pardon. (laugh)

The other day I went snowboarding.

There was fine weather in the white world and in my ignorance I slipped at breakneck speed in the dry conditions. Have you ever had an experience where you think you've hit the limit?.....

On such occasions does life come to an end?...... (?)

It's easy to be forgetful, but it's wonderful if you remember to smile daily. Tomorrow, I'll also try to do my best.

Everyone also, don't forget your smile, OK? (heart)

What have I been doing?

The weather has been cold. But, I was able to do something hot to be refreshed and restore my peace of mind.

Mu ha ha ha.......Do you know what it was? I got to go snowboarding which is my favorite pastime!

On top of that, the weather there was great. Warm and sunny. It was awesome! Oh yeah.

However, the next day my body was really sore. (laugh)

It couldn't come at a worse time, because next week I have to give in and start recording.

This time will there be some sort of miracle?.....

Personally, it's my true nature to dislike recording......you grow accustomed to it, but it's such an empty feeling.

Although, I do fight to win in the recording booth. (laugh)

Once that is finished, we're still not touring~~!!

I'm looking forward to eating delicious foods and going to the hot spring.

I feel when I take care of myself my spirit is lifted up. The tension rises!

It looks like Anza got my Valentine present. (laugh)

Happy Valentine!!!

It's chocolate Day. (heart)

Did everyone receive some chocolate? Or, did you give some to someone?

The HPP members get some every year without fail!! From me and our manager. (laugh)

By the way, I also received some chocolate from the members. (laugh) That made me happy.

I'm hoping some day to do a live Show on Valentine's Day so I can hand out some chocolate as a present. That would be nice, don't you think?

Anyway, we're recording a tune for a soon to be released record and I want to put my love into the singing. (double heart)

I'm doing my best~!!

The pic is the HPP mascot and a present of chocolate. (laugh)

Happy Valentine's (heart)

current mood: loved

Hey there, today is chocolate day. (laugh)

This is the one day of the year that chocolate sells extremely well. (laugh)

Every year my Dad and I give some to the HPP members and the staff.

Now days, it's the girl who attempts to exchange with her friend. Of course, the boy getting the chocolate is a happy person, right? (laugh)

Furthermore, a band member and the manager are both parents, that makes it an extra special day for them, right? (laugh)

I've yet to get some chocolate to share with everyone at a live show, I think it would be a nice thing to give to someone, but......at a live concert.......I may try it.

Well, right now I have some chocolate to eat. (laugh)

The pic is from Hitomi Aizawa's Blog. I'm sure it's the ski slope that Anza wants to go to to do some snowboarding. I think it's a good pic, so I'm posting it for Anza for Valentine's Day. Hopefully, she'll get to go there at least one more time before spring gets here.

Also, I knew the manager of HPP was a momma, but I didn't know one of the guys was a dad. Now I'm wondering which one it is. (laugh)

No go~

Here's the latest thing I've gotten into........Nothing. (laugh)

What do I need to break free from?!!! Me!!! (laugh)

I still want to go snowboarding among other things. Like a trip to Guam or Sunlight Edo Village. It seems my hopes are dashed everyday. Is it useless to wish?

You would think that going to the Gym would be easy, but the time slips away from me......I haven't been able to go for an aroma massage therapy either.

The only enjoyment I get is staying up late at night and that's it. (laugh)

When I finish work, I stick my feet into the foot warmer, watch the TV, eat a bunch of sweets, then go to bed. That's the pattern for now, but it's still pleasant, right?

When you're working on a tune, you try to get into it and make it worthy to be listened to, and at the same time, you turn into one dull person, don't you think? (laugh)

That's why my foot warmer has become my guilty pleasure!!

Say~ we'll start recording very soon.

We're headed down the home stretch!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I think Anza needs a hug!
