All the talk about NHK and Kohaku reminded me of the other year-end music programmes. Usually by this time, we would have an idea of where our boys will be performing but...

Is there none this year? Where is NTV's Best Artist? Why is only SMAP mentioned in FNS? Why cannot I get Arashi on YTV's Best Hits with Big Bang and Kanjani 8? Will Music Station Super Live still be happening too? 

Weird. 

Everything is so quiet this year. Well, at least I am getting Arashi with Sid for tomorrow's Music Station.

Today is the king's 37th birthday.

 

 

May my dear king stay young forever!

OTONOHA VOL.44

Hola

 

Soy yo

 

Hace poco tuve un día libre

 

Este sería el último día libre del año

 

Me pregunto que debería hacer…

 

Tuve que deliberar  cuidadosamente el día anterior

 

Debería ir de compras?

 

Ir al cine?

 

Qué debería hacer?...

 

Ha!!

Verdad!!!

Vamos a  Kyoto!

 

 

…… o quizas no

 

Me iré de casa al campo!

 

Así pensé!

 

No he podido visitar a mis abuelos todo este año.

 

Y talvez no pueda decirles hola ni saludarlos este año.

 

Lo pensé y decidí ir a verlos.

 

Al día siguiente los llamé.

 

Nieto: ok, voy a verlos.

 

Abuela: Ehh?

 

Nieto: Estoy saliendo a verlos ahora.

 

Abuela: Ehh?! Ten cuidado en el camino.

 

Así acabó la conversación, salí corriendo y me subí al carro.

 

Luego de unas horas llegué a la casa de mis abuelos.

 

Abuela: eh? Has venido solo.

 

Nieto: Si estoy solo

 

Ah, bien.

 

Esta es la primera vez que estoy yendo a visitar a mis abuelos solo.

 

Nos sentamos en la sala, tomamos algo de té, hablamos de cosas recientes, ya hacía buen tiempo que no hablaba con mis abuelos.

 

Pero era la primera vez en que estaba solo.

 

De alguna forma me sentía un poco extraño.

 

Mientras estaba allí un vendedor tocó la puerta.

 

Pude oir la conversación en el pasillo mientras esperaba en la sala.

 

Vendedor: Usted dijo que su nieto es un artista?

 

Abuela: Si.

 

Vendedor: Es un cantante?

 

Abuela: Si

 

Vendedor: drama? Mmm es baterista? Usted dijo que trabaja en dramas?

 

Abuela: Así es.

 

‘Hago todo tipo de dramas’

 

Quería decir esto desde la sala.

 

¿Cómo debo trasmitir esta información?

 

Aparte de esto, el tiempo que pasamos fue muy rápido.

 

En la tarde, mientras tomaba té hablaba con mis abuelos.

 

Por la noche cené con mis familiares, hacia tiempo también que no los veía, nos pusimos al día, fue realmente un momento muy agradable.

 

Esto fue para mi una ‘gran compra’ en mi día libre.

 

Por supuesto, no compré nada.

 

Fue un día rico y pleno.

my fellow YB addict.

MY GOSH

We must have been really good this past year, because two of our wishes came true in the past 2 days!

First was arashi-chan all in one dorama together!

And then now, a second OST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There's not a lot of new songs, meaning no extension of the drama, but hey at least I get my JGS's version of "Without a word"!!!

If only the third, an extension of YB, would come true...

Three-and-half came true though. YB's viewership ratings last night broke 11!! I hope it's not just because of the cliff-hanger that led up to ep 11. Otherwise, it might just fall again tonight...

Ok, I'm off to translating ep 11! Halfway done. Arghhhh shouldn't have let my mom dragged me out shopping this afternoon!

Sachiko~

Its a busy busy day, I was preparing Ichiro-niichan's favorite for dinner.  With Okachan gone now, I had to do more of the house work while doing part-time as a piano teacher.  It was hard being in a house full of men.  Okachan used to say I was a bit rowdy myself but then again minna was overprotective, especially Jiro-niichan.  I smiled at the memory of him always there for me and Saa-kun.  Jiro-niichan knew how to stop me from crying or why Saa-kun was sad or angry or frustrated.  He listened to us and we did the same.  Well...more like me listening since Saa-kun was always hyper about something interesting.  Okachan once said, he was someone I can depend on just like Saa-kun.  Mou~ when Okachan was diagnosed with ovarian cancer, he was strong in front of everyone when I was crying.  But when I was walking with him one day from the hospital, he pulled me and hugged me.  Niichan just cried like a child.  I didn't know what to do.  He was the one who made me smile like Saa-chan so...I was at a loss for words.  I just held him and patted his hair, humming the lullaby that Okachan sang to us as children.  That was the only time I saw niichan cry.  I didn't tell Saa-kun, I don't even know why since I told him everything.  Mou~ I'm happy that this family has accepted us completely as their own.  It was hard in the convent orphanage but when Okachan and Otouchan took us home. We were happy.  It was home. A real home.

I was letting the curry simmer as Saburo called us over to show something.  It was a letter that Okachan had left for us.  I was last to read.  It said to move on and do what we wanted.  Okachan will always be with us she said in the letter.  I know I'm such a crybaby but reading something like that was unbearable.  Okachan knew she was at the end of her time.  My love for her has always been so much.  I took care of her till her last breath with us.  Heaven knows that we were still at a loss since she was gone a few months ago.  I can't bring myself to think of even leaving the home we all had with her.  Otouchan is in Chiba, it was good for him.  To try and move on, he was hurt most...i think.. his wife, friend and lifetime partner was gone.  I understood his leaving.  But Ichiro-niichan is engaged to Nana-chan and wanted to start anew in a fishing village somewhere.  Shiro-kun and Goro-kun have dragged Jiro-niichan and they decided to move to Tokyo.  The family is moving on Okachan.... But I can't bring myself to do that.  YADA!!

I stood from the table and ran to where I always did, the bathroom and locked myself in.  Slumping to the floor, the endless streams of tears fell.  Okachan.  Why did you leave?  Why didn't you fight harder?  I knew I was wrong to ask, this was what she wanted.  A final rest.  But the pain was unbearable.  Silent tears.  I could hear Saa-chan trying to get in but when the door clicked open...It was my Jiro-niichan who knelt down and held me tight, patting my hair like he always did when we were young and something was wrong.  I could depend on him.  I... no... I must just be confused...  But I love him... He wiped the tears away and smiled.  It will be fine.  Saa-kun made a joke, it made me smile.  Then the others looked in and chided us.  I remembered dinner, I stood up and got the table ready.  Glancing up at Jiro-niichan.  He smiled and patted my hair.  I love him.

I was wondering if someone is going to take JLPT4 this december?
I can't go to classes, so my only way is to study at home...

Anyone knows where I can find JLPT4 exams with the answers? ^^;
I found some samples of exams, but I don't have the answers T.T
Or the transcript of the listening?
