Messages

I know you are all familiar with translations of Nanase's messages appearing in the latest updates. However, I will be trying something new.
If you look to your right, you will see a column named "Nanase's Messages."
This is the feed to the new blog - Nanase Message - that I will now be posting all of her messages (and English translations of them). You will always now be able to find the latest 5 posts from Nanase in the sidebar. If you want to few later posts, you can click on the name "Nanase's Messages" (also known as the header) where it will take you to the blog itself and you can view a full-out blog containing all of Nanase's Messages.
Hope this is easier, enjoy it!

ACOUSTIC LIVE "MOON DANCE 2007" Information

Nanase will again hold the yearly MOON DANCE. Every year for the past few years, Nanase holds a sort of mini-concert at a chosen place to perform special acoustic versions of some of her songs. This year it will be held at Gloria Chapel and will be on December 21st, 2007 in Japan. These concerts are really special, if you will be in Japan at that time it would be a nice suggestion to attend!

Message: "Studio"

This message was translated from Japanese. Some things may be modified to suit better understanding.

"I started going to the studio last week. After all, being possible to speak even for a moment to get me prepared is good*.
I don't like to think it 'would be great if I were to stuff all of the directionality of the arrangements all into the rest of this year'. I'm happy that 100 stocks or more are being made the best use of now.. what a selection..
It's already MOON DANCE early next month - that's something that's definitely going to help me prepare*."

*Nanase actually used the word 'Rehabilitaion,' but I believe she used this as 'prepare,' as to rehabilitate singing and releasing work.

Message: "Anniversary since debut"

This message was translated from Japanese. Some things may be modified to suit better understanding.

"I was able to face this day again. It's been a whole 12 years... and I'm now walking the road to 13 years. 12 years is such a long time, from when I was a Junior High School student to now just having a visit from the stork. I get deeply emotional when I think that Aikawa Nanase was just born*, and already such a long time has passed.
I'll be returning to the studio tomorrow. I will gradually advance in recording."

*Basically mentioning her debut, in other words the birth of Aikawa Nanase in which case she used.
