Ahhhh~~ I can’t breathe…. I’m SO drowning in work!! Just looking at the task list and… sian jit bua already, don’t even feel like working, and it’s a Friday~~~~! Just when I thought I can finally clear my tasks by the end of today, another 8 tasks just came in *DIES* Can’t wait for next week when we’re back at full force! 2 of us can’t handle this avalanche :( It’s the busiest period ever since we joined the company!!!

Sigh.. Pls ignore my rant, I just needed to vent it somewhere!

Okay, where’s my Takki spirit!!! GANBARIMASSSUUUUU~~~!!!!! *back to work*

おはよございます〜 Just realised that this is the 47th post I’m making this month, which comes up to about 1.5 posts a day *faints* Must be those 24hrTV downloads. It’s kinda good that it’s a bit of a drought now, so both T&T and their fans have some time to rest!!!

Just wondering if anyone hasn’t watched “Kokoro no Tobira” (心の扉) yet? It’s the 24hrTV Drama SP (21st ann.), in 1998 I think. Takki has acted in three 24hrTV Drama SPs to date, but in all of them, he ISN’T the one who’s sick/ill. In “Kokoro no Tobira” (心の扉), it was his best friend, in “Chichi no Umi, Boku no Sora” (父の海、僕の空), it was his dad, and in “Kimi ga Kureta Natsu” (君がくれた夏), it was his son. Just thought this was interesting~~

Oh no, I just saw an AVALANCHE of tasks coming in! *faints*
o.k. I shall work my head off now. 頑張ります！

お疲れちゃん。

Last night I watched the chinese-subbed「君がくれた夏」and cried again~ lol~ like Takki, my tear glands are weak lately :) When 直也くん asked his パパ, for what reason was he brought into this world? 病気のために…? あぁ〜*BAWLS* Everyone can see just how much this boy wants to live. And yet there are people who throw away their lives. And now I realised the significance of the butterfly (okay, and I learnt what is Pieris Rapae ^^).

Monday blues.

But I made it a point to say to myself 「今日も頑張ります！」when T&T greeted me at my desk this morning ^^ Just now I let my mind wander off for a while, and was thinking, REALLY, how lucky I am to be a T&T fan ^^ The T&T booth at the Johnny’s shop might still be as deserted as before 24hrTV, but what’s most important is how the boys have earned the respect of more people after the show.

I read some really nice things that the NTV staff said about them – that they are the same, whether in front of the cameras or backstage. They are polite, sincere, do not put on airs, and even when they’re not in front of the cameras, when they see donators, they’ll shake hands with them. While watching the VTRs, other hosts will sit down occasionally, but T&T remained standing. They kept their smiling faces. Because they are a 2-person unit, they do not have time to take shifts to rest. And the late night comedy show was delayed, so T&T did not have time to rest as originally planned. So… basically, the entire time, they did not sleep, did not rest, and even after all these, they maintained a good working attitude.

Hence the staff and crew were full of praise for Takitsuba. They are exceptionally pleased with the high ratings this time. For the record, the average rating for this yr’s 24hr TV is 18.6%. It’s 2nd best in the entire history of the show (since 1978), only second to the 19% rating of 2005. おめでとう！

翼くんの松竹座公演は終りました。お疲れさまでした！

As I mentioned in my previous post, Takki attended Tsubasa’s show at Shochikuza yesterday. He promised to write a letter to Tsubasa on J-web. Bonnie has the details of the MC translated here. After the show, both updated their diaries!

To Tsubasa:
Thank you for the letter during 24hr TV During these 10 years or so, … GUFFU (i.e. Tsubasa Tears)
From before we debut as Tackey & Tsubasa to today, we have been through a lot of things and emotions together ne After we debutted, we have also went through a lot. Of course, there are not only good things! The two of us had times where we regretted, as well as times when we were deeply moved. Tackey & Tsubasa are not a unit who moves at an earth-shattering speed. We move step by step with assurance, grasping our smiles with certainty! Within our smiles, there is courage, deep emotions, our fans and our staff. Let’s move at our own pace, and grasp (as much as we can) our smiles

Today I went to see Tsubasa’s Osaka performance At the climax of our conversation, I promised to write a letter to Tsubasa, so today I wrote it Tsubasa, although it is hard on your physical strength, ganbatte~

His letter was written with so much more emotions than what I’ve translated. It’s so hard to translate ne~ I got slightly emotional, especially while reading Takki’s letter.
