B'z - PRAY



For Lyrics and translation click here

Expressing all my words of regret for Japan, I feel that I have to do something for them, for that country I've always love and respect for the beauty of the cities and the wonderful people who live there.
I'm not one of those people who express sad feelings to others, but this time the feelings where too much strong to repress them inside of me. As I'm a sensitive girl, the images of a destroy country and suffering people made me cry and wanted to help someway. Of course I couldn't do anything of big, but in my little possibilities I wanted to support them.
So, I started to look for information, and, of course, to pray. Even if I said that I don't express feelings to others, I started to show to every people around me that I'm following, with all my soul, a cause. As a matter or fact I put on my Twitter avatar the twibbon "PRAY FOR JAPAN", I put on my school back-pack a piece of cloth with the same sentence and I created a bracelet with "JAPAN" written on it.




I know, all these things don't give them any material help but I wanted to show all my moral support because this is one of the only things I can do.
Second, I've found the number of SMS to donate via cellphone at the Italian Red Cross which is supposed to give all the money raised to Japan. I still have to send the SMS but I will surely do it.
Finally I want to dedicate this B'z song to all the Japanese people. I find it very beautiful in the meaning and the perfect part for this situation is:

"We're connected together over this one vast land
What kind of tears, what kind of joyful voices
If you prick up your ears, than maybe you could hear them
Even today, somewhere, someone is praying for someone else's sake"

I'm one of those people who is praying for you, Japan! Be strong!

Anzen Chitai - Mayonaka Sugi No Koi




Sasowarete unazuku made no ai da
Sono atode seiza no mieru e randa e
Hi no piasu nara hazureteru
Yoru ni tsurarete yuku nara ima

Odori nagara
Namida nanka
Konagona ni nare
Mayonaka sugi no koi dakara

Sayonara ga kikoete kitara naite ne
Tameiki wa kowareta mune no sasayaki
Donna doresu demo kamawanai
Yoru ni aorarete yuku nara ima

Koware nagara
Kinou yori mo
Utsukushikunare
Mayonaka sugi no koi dakara

Koi no sumi mo
Koi no wana mo
Kizukanai mama
Mayonaka sugi no koi dakara

Koware nagara
Kinou yori mo
Utsukushikunare
Mayonaka sugi no koi dakara

Koi no sumi mo
Koi no wana mo
Kizukanai mama
Mayonaka sugi no koi dakara


Yes, I came back to the 80s! I fell in love with this song some weeks ago (maybe a month ago) when a Youtube account that I follow uploaded the 2010 version of this song (HERE) I thought it was a modern song, but when they said that it's from 1984 I couldn't believe it! It's wonderful!
Now I use to listen to it about twice a day! I love the video too, it's typical of the 80s because of the pinball, which was one of the symbols of those years! I love it, I love it, I love it!

My Favourite Manga Characters

Ok! Let's talk about something different this time! I wanted to talk about my three favourite manga characters which are also related to something about me or about my life. So, let's start!
My favourite characters of all the time is Hanamichi Sakuragi from Slam Dunk:

Hanamichi Sakuragi was my first love! I remember I was about 7-8 years old when I first saw Slam Dunk: I fell in love with him at first sight! Well, I know he doesn't exist, but I hope I find a guy like him in the future! I'm still looking for a very tall guy  (1.88 metres tall)!

The second-favourite character is Nana from the homonymous manga:

Why I like her so much? Well, I feel a bit like her: I look like a girl with a strong pesonality, but inside I'm very sensitive and fragile. I'm also sweet and romantic... just like Nana!

The third-favourite character, but not for this reason it isn't as important as the others, is Takuto Iwai from Gakuen Heaven:

Why I like this sad guy? It's obvious: I like his sadness. Just look at his eyes and you will feel a strange love increasing inside of you. Then, I love the fact that he is a painter who is very humble about his skills as an artist. I feel a bit like him just for the same reasons that I feel like Nana plus that Takuto has those sad eyes and that pale complexion... just like me...

So... these were my three favourite manga characters!
See you soon!
