This is a picture on the instruction manual of BOSE headphones I showed you last night . . .
Do you think he has a bouzu(shaved) head? Is it a shaved head?
Because it's a BOSE product . . . !
=3 *chuckles*
Or, is it a short-cropped head? But looks round and not that thick at all . . .
So maybe he's got a bouzu head I guses?
I hope it's a bouzu head . . . I really hope so! (>w< )

Got new headphones after such a long time ! !
Tomita-san the arranger told me "Have you got that one? I'm wondering whether to get it or not, since I heard it's pretty good~," and that led me to get one the other day!
It's QuietComfort 3, by BOSE!
BOSE's earlier headphones with noise cancelation was huge and I didn't feel like using it, but this one is pretty small. It's lighter and smaller than the SONY one that I usually use in the studio.
It has a comfy fit too! Battery charging is a bother, though.
AND
It's got wicked fat bass~~~ (<3)
I can feel low deep booms~!
Those bass and kick sounds are really fat~! (<3)
I couldn't help listening to Beautiful World, Kiss & Cry and Fly Me To The Moon 2007 Mix with this one(lol)
I can sense every single sound~! Bass sounds great too~ (one more <3)
I felt like listening to songs with ultra-fat basses so tried "Drop It Like It's Hot" by Snoop Dogg, and it feels kinda as if my brain is dancing! The following song is "Gin And Juice," that makes me feel so nostalgic - - - ! It's the song in "Snoop Doggy Dogg" name era~.
But what made me surprised most with its awesome bass, was the song called "Tombstone" by Peaches! I thought I almost peed my pants!
Woot! Snoop's "Who Am I?(Whats My Name)" just came! This really bring back memories ! ! ! It's the song released when I was in the elementary. I can feel I'm grinning right now. I'm slipping back in time to the past-. I just can't resist ! ! ! (lol) I cannot help but sing along!
Well, I got off the point but anywayz I'm really into the new headphones by BOSE-chama.
Heheh (<3)

The sample version of my new single has just been made!
It's got lots of my photos taken in Yokohama early in the morning. I remember I had sunshine after a long time~.
I've been having my strange sleep pattern for years, and I'm beginning to wonder this could be partly because of my having too little sunlight(^ ^;)
By the way, I forgot to tell you but I did the taping of CDTV last Monday!
The set looked magical, using dry ice.
You know, speaking of dry ice I bet you have a cool, chilly image for it, right?
But this time, the studio was filled with dry ice over and over again(for sound check, camera rehearsal, run-through etc.), and it got so hot and muggy enough to make you confirm others if you were not in a TV station but a tropical rainforest!
I myself, who was singing under those lights, was hot, but I thought it must be tough for the shooting staff people to be there. Guys who were in charge of setting up the set, who were running around with camera cables, all those guys had to be in the studio and move around in there. They looked very hot~. Everybody was sweaty all over.
But if people watch the show on the air, they'd probably just have an impression that the set looks kinda cool and magical(lol)
Even just to take 4 or 5 minutes length video, it needs sweats of many people(and lots of money), you know
I'm not kidding, seriously. Every time I see the set in TV stations I think "Wooow this is great~! Guess it costs a lot to set this up . . . " I wonder what all those things will be after the taping is over. Would there be a lot of parts that can be reused?
Seems like they get loads of trash everyday~. Something that is uses as a part of a beautiful set, turns trash after it is used . . . Sounds kinda odd, huh.

It's kinda embarrassing to tell you about my dream 'cause you may do dream analysis or interpretation of it, but I myself is a type of person who doesn't believe in dream interpretation thing that much, so I just thought it's OK and that's why I wrote about it yesterday.
Basically I always remember my dreams clearly in detail, and 70 or 80 percent of them are scary ones!
I often wake up with "Whew~ I'm tired~" because of the content of my dream.
Sometimes I fight against an enemy, sometimes my buddies get killed, or I'm just running away from something. Sometimes I'm getting attacked a lot by dogs or cats, having nowhere to escape and just thinking "Oh it hurts, it hurts," and sometimes my family is killing each other with a knife or chopper, and whatnot - I cannot write further, 'cause this just gets more erotic, grotesque and nonsense
I receive some emails from time to time asking me "Hikki, when do you sleep??" as I write here quite randomly . . . I don't know from what time, but basically I always wake up after I sleep 2 hours or 2 and a half hours!
It's OK for me to wake up, but I always have a big trouble getting to sleep, and it takes at least 1 hour to fall asleep no matter how sleepy I am. This is so inefficient and this could be my problem.
So I fall asleep, then just after 2 hours or so I wake up, and kill time for 1 or 2 hours by reading books or playing with Kuma Chang until I calm myself down, as I become wide awake because of scary dreams.
Well it's true I'm keeping irregular hours, but please just take it like "Oh, so she wrote it 'cause she woke up?" when you find my message posted at an irregular time!
Today now I'm going to hit the sack, by the way
The image above is the one taken when I stayed at Park Hyatt Hotel in Shinjuku looooooooong time ago. Those little sunlights coming through the clouds are making concentrate attacks on a corner in the city! The buildings may get burned if you put a huge magnifying glass in between.
I just woke up shrieking, at the moment of being bitten in the face by this big black dog that attacked me and had a lot of struggle with me!
It was just a dream~ Thank goodness~ I was so scared~ (T_T)
I'm a type of person who always has such types of dream and I believe I'm used to it, but this time I woke up shrieking for the first time in years! Also being surprised by my own scream (lol)
On top of that, I saw the closeup of Kuma Chang's face the moment I opened my eyes, which made me embarrassed and scared as well . . . (You know, Kuma Chang's really got a big head . . . )
I turned the TV on as I was not able to sleep because of my heart's pounding, and found 24Hour Television was on. They are working for a long time, please take care~

Well, let's see, let me take a look at your real face
*peels off*
*pop*
Awwww---- ! ! I damaged the left-below part of Kuma san's mouth when I removed the lid ! !
Some cream stuck to the lid, off from his mouth . . . !
Weeeeep I'm sorry I'm sorry! My apologies Kuma san!
*sobs* . . . What a painful look . . .
Hm
*munch*
*mumble mumble*
*munch*
*mumble mumble*
*munch munch*
*mumble mumble*
Hm. It tastes normal.

WWWWwhh What's the meaning of this !?
You mean I gotta eat this !?
Mmm m . . . . gahhhhhh

Gahhh~, I'm tired~ TV works wear me out~ 
I wonder why, 'cause it's not that pressing work(I commute to the studio everyday and work for many more hours when I do loads of recordings, you know). It's a fun work for me, though.
After the taping of Music Fighter was done I found the hair makeup staff-san had some pretty ke-tai strap, so I asked her "What's that?" and she replied me she just got it from my staff.
It was a promotion item for "Beautiful World/Kiss & Cry" single release! It got kinda small crystal-like sphere, with two pictures inside. From one side it looked like a globe, and from the other side it looked like something black & white . . . I couldn't see it well. Trees? What was that.
Now let me tell you.
After that I went home some time later,
And I didn't get that goods
W-H-Y- ! ( T O T )
WHY nobody gave it to me - ! ( T O T )
Well I don't care. I don't need it 'cause I've already got this lovely globe item.
For your information - this is a well-known piece, and you can find it in the places like stationery stores or some general stores in the States. It comes in a couple of sizes and this one would be the middle size one I guess.
I've been keeping this same thing ever since I was a little child. I bought it somewhere, and I bought it again when I moved or lost it.
I got the first one probably at the stationery store that had a lot of import goods, located at the intersection that had a bank and red telephone booth nearby in Hiroo, if I remember it right. After that I got it again in NY when I was an elementary school girl, 'cause I felt kinda nostalgic at that time! Then I think I got another one around when I came back to Tokyo. 'Cause it'd been on my table around when I debuted.
So that means this should be the fourth one, right?

I think The Blue Nile sounds best in the nighttime~. What a fabulous music.
Yesterday (the day before yesterday, already) on the taping of Utaban, I was playing The Blue Nile's album "Hats" in the dressing room for the first time in ages while getting my makeup done, and it was simply superb.
I suddenly started laughing in a halfway manner like "Ghh Nfheheheheh" when my fave guitar riff part came on, which made the makeup staff-san worried like "Wh, what happened, Hikaru-chan?"
By the way, The Blue Nile is the band that does some low-keyed, subdued, professionals' fave type of music, so I guess people would just love it or hate it. I should say I can't recommend them to everybody, but I love them very much.
I ran across Ōta-san of Bakusho Mondai when I was waiting for the elevator at the place right next to TBS underground parking! It's been quite a long time(since I last met him once at a radio show taping about 9 years ago), so we didn't notice each other for a while.
We had some chitchats in the elevator, then suddenly Ōta-san asked me "Why did you split up?"
Geez!! What's the point of his asking that question!?(lol) - I thought, but replied him kinda like "Well, for many reasons(lol)" turning a deaf ear on my staff bursting into laughing, then in the meantime we arrived on the destination floor, so we parted giving "See ya~!" to each other.
It was such a short time~. Wish I could've talked him longer, as I was happy to see him after a long while~ 
The song part taping of Utaban had no audiences this time, which made me feel a little short on fun, but the set was quite gorgeous as always!
And I met (or rather, ran across) aiko-san in the corridor for the first time in quite some time.
You can see a lot of artists and talents in TV stations, seems like. (Who doesn't know it?)
I've got another TV taping tomorrow! Today I did nothing, being just lazy and relax all day long, so I'm now full of energy for tomorrow's Music Fighter taping~.
