Yesterday I was at NHK for J-MELO and I met melody.!
The program was recorded entirely in English, so I thought it would've been a piece of cake for me... but it turns out that during the past few weeks or so, after returning to Japan, my English speaking level has completely deteriorated. And can you believe that I was actually nervous during the recording?? (Well, I could've just been nervous because melody. was too pretty... but... ^^;;) I hadn't used English in forever. It's weird. >.<
Anyways...
SoulJa was there too (for those of you who aren't sure who he is, he was the guy who did the original "Koko Ni Iru Yo", which featured Thelma Aoyama... and now Thelma Aoyama is one of the top-selling artists in the J-Pop industry. She just did a song called "Soba Ni Iru Ne", featuring SoulJa, a few months back, and it was a big hit. And I can see why. I LOVE this song. Definitely check it out when you get the chance ^_~). Unfortunately, our recording schedules were a bit far apart, so we didn't get to meet each other.

- My dressing room. ^_^

- melody. was sooo nice. And she's so pretty too! OMG <3 her. ^_^
A shout out to everybody at J-MELO! I had so much fun. Hope to come back again soon! ^_^ Thank you so much~
So KIZUNA was released today! We went to CD shops around the area to take a look...

- Yay! Big sighboard/billboard thing. (See what I mean about my English skills now?)

- Hey~ this looks kinda cool, too.

- It's actually kind of cool to be holding your own CD and posing for a picture.

- Whoa! Big.

- Have *you* already gotten KIZUNA yet? ^_~

- Wow that's cool... to receive a critique about me that says, "BoA meets Crystal Kay..." two of my favorite J-Pop singers!! And melody.'s CD is right next to mine! That's cool!
Alrighty. So... have YOU ordered/bought KIZUNA yet? ^_~
Here's the repetition thing again.
KIZUNA. Buy it. KIZUNA. Buy it. KIZUNA. Buy it. =P
