[LiSA Blog 09/04/12] Indonesia

Hi.

Before I left Japan, I felt like we had a bunch of hot humid days, but my first day back, I felt like I caught the faint scent of autumn.
And now, the extra Indonesia edition. This is going to be a long one!!
At the welcome party the day I got there, I got bitten by so many mosquitoes

Behind the stage, I had a secret meeting with Saber and Archer.

I begged for a photo from Rider who was playing cards at Vanguard-san’s booth.

I ate nasi goring every night.

And even though I ate so much before I went to bed, when I woke up, my greedy tummy was growling with hunger.

(Beg)
Despite the early hour, I was so excited by the loooong counter at the buffet.

Any topping you want.

Take as many as you want.

On the last day, after watching me eat plate after plate every morning, blsee4-sama asked “Are you a big eater?”
(Apparently it wasn’t an easy question to ask. (LOL))

Shy girl that I am, I narrowed my eyes and managed, “Yes I am! I love to eat!”

(My best impression!)
In the beginning the tables were all separated, but on the last day they were all pushed together and we all ate our fish together.

Right before I left, we all learned that you can eat melted ice cream if you freeze it again.

I left with all of the presents and love letters you all gave me at the date (LiVE).

Team LiSA and the raMEN (band members) swam in the pool every single day and got super tan.
I couldn’t find the time to go to the pool><
I’ll definitely go in Singapore!!
It’s kind of unfair

how cool

the raMEN always

look on stage.

Despite the many fantasy dates (LiVEs) we do, we often make sudden changes after we get to the actual venue and get a feel for it,
like “Maybe we should use this transition!” or “We should do that song!”
I want to do the best I can at that moment, so I often discuss things with the raMEN the day before or the day of the show.
I do even more of that when I’m playing in another country.
Sometimes I get a really strong feeling from the country and need to change things.
I suddenly make selfish demands like,

Boooo...
I wanna change the set list.
Booo...
(What a pain)
It’s such a help to have the raMEN, because they always immediately say, “Sure, that’s fine.”
I’m sorry it’s always so out of the blue.

(This is plan 2, even though it’s already be changed)
The raMEN are the best, because they always give exactly the performance I’d imagined for each show.
The trust I have before I got on stage for everyone who’s out in the audience – that there’s no way we can have anything but an amazing time- the trust I have for the raMEN - that everything will be alright as long as I’ve got them – is a treasure that the time we’ve spent together has given me.
I know I’ve got a long way to go but, thank you for everything.

And to Nagayama-san, my teacher who taught me so much Indonesian in Indonesia this time, thank you so much.

Indonesia, DERA ADIGATO!!

I’ll be back.

Be Happy.
Today’s another great day!

BYE-CHIっ!
