Song Story ds106
Back in 2002.
I was in 4th grade.
It is 2011.
I am 19.
My greatest and darkest history.
Back then, my friends and I were really into this girls group.
called モーニング娘。 (morning musume, morning girls)
((Thinking about it now,
they were like AKB.
But a little bit different.))
I really liked them.
I don't know why.
But we were little kids.
We envied these shiny girls.
Back then, we were always talking about them.
My mother knew how much I liked them.
One day, she brings me this letter
that says that I passed the paper screening of the audition
for kids group (called Hello Project) of MorningMusume.
One of my friends who sent her paper also passed.
So.
I went to the audition.
On the letter, it said that
there is going to be singing and dancing test.
And to wear something that is easy to move.
I knew what I wanted to sing.
It was one of the newest songs they released
and I liked it very much.
However, I didn't know what to wear.
My mother told me to wear something good-looking and cute.
BUT
it said "wear something that is easy to move".
For me,
good-looking (formal) + cute (skirt) = school uniform
My mother rejected my idea.
So, I decided to wear "something easy to move"
which was
my basketball uniform.
My mother rejected again.
But I was like "No no no!"
since I heard from my grandmother that audition = battle.
And there I was.
Among all other girls who are wearing
stage costumes of MorningMusume shrunken to their size,
really frilly skirts,
cool looking pants, ...
I was there,
with my basketball uniform that says
"Jaguars 7" on front and "Kino 7" on the back.
My friends were like ".....haha"
This was the song I sang for the singing test.
I think this is a great song.
I think this song cheers you up.
However, when I listen to this song.
I remember the loneliness at the really crowded place.
I remember the cold smile on my friend's face.
But I do not regret!
It was such a great experience.
I will never forget that day.
