Hello! It's certainly been a while ~

I've been working on the 10,000 word interview that Noel did with Myojo-san, which is the first in their series for the members of Travis Japan! Please enjoy~

~

I didn’t have that “shining future” within my sights. Despite that, I trusted in my dream, and kept on dancing.


10,000-word long-form interview: Travis Japan Edition

Issue 1, Kawashima Noel: “When I was a Junior”


Travis Japan’s first original song, “Yume no Hollywood”. That song was the final ray of hope that they grasped onto right as they were on the brink of disbandment. Prepared to throw away everything else, they went on to train in America. Their journey has been an incredibly long one. But, despite everything, they wouldn’t have walked any other path. Trusting that the path ahead of the 7 of them would lead to becoming ‘classic’ idols, they’ll continue to run forward from now on.

Noemaru 14 March regular update, 6pm JST


Today, 14 March, is White Day~!🤍


It’s “White” Day, just like the colour I’d chosen to represent myself, so I find myself fairly emotionally attached to this day (*´꒳`*)


Out of all the shades of white in this world, of which it’s said that as many as 200 exist, I’m glad you chose this shade of white, being my member colour in Travis Japan!

Hello!! Sorry I ended up taking such a long hiatus from Noemaru translations ;o; I was facing a bit of translation fatigue, and so to combat that, I've decided that for future Noemaru translations I'll be cutting out the Q&A and only translating the main portions! Hope that's okay ;o;

For this month, Yvon [livejournal.com profile] pigscanflyy_tj had already translated a short excerpt from the entry about concert uchiwas, and she's graciously let me use her translation inside my translation of this month's issue! She did a great job + got it done way faster than me (haha) so please send her lots of love too ;o;

And with that, please enjoy the first Noemaru of 2023~

Heya! ☀️


I don’t know how many times you’ve heard someone say this already, but…


Happy new year! 🌅


It’s still “the start of the new year”, after all!


Also, according to tradition, the New Years’ festivities (matsu-no-uchi) can last up till the 7th or the 15th day of the new year, you know! Haha!

I'm back (late) with Noel's latest Noemaru! Our precious boy says this entry is shorter than his usual but uhhh it most definitely is one of the longest, if not the longest, Noemaru I've translated so far, clocking in at over 5,000 words in English LOL

Noel shares his thoughts on AGT this month, which is a nice read for anyone who might still be feeling discouraged about TJ's result!! He's also hinted the format of the blog will change starting next month, so that's pretty exciting ^^

Noemaru monthly update – 14 September 2022, 6pm JST


The time has come around this September~! It’s the regular monthly update~! ☺️


I’m busy with my new game 🦑 today so this will be short! ( It did not, in fact, become short🤭) (Well, it’s shorter than usual though!)


Well! I’m happy! To be able to enjoy something “new”!


It’s important to take a proper break when you’re able to slow down your pace and relax a little, you know!


I’ll game a lot! It’s so fun ☺️


I’ll properly set aside time for it! I’m getting a proper sleep, so don’t worry! (lol)

Hi, long time no see! I've been recovering from a hand injury that left me unable to type excessively, so I had to hold back on Noel's looooong monthly essay until it got better ;o; I hope it's worth the wait! This month he answers some questions (as usual) and gives us some behind the scenes on the prep work for WOD ^^

Noemaru monthly update - 14 August 2022, 6pm JST


Here’s the monthly update for August~! ☺️


Yahoo!✌️


Recently it hasn’t been raining much, and so LA’s been really dry, but in consideration of that I’ve been drinking a lot of liquids and doing my best with this well-hydrated body (*´꒳`*)

Happy Noemaru update week! This month, Noel answers a bunch of Q&A, and talks about how to be active in chasing your dreams ^^

Noemaru monthly update - 14 July 2022, 6pm JST


Close to half of July has gone by, andI’m getting up around this time, thinking to myself that summer has truly begun 🌺


LA has days where the weather gets close to 40°C, and if it rains once in a month that’s considered pretty frequent! So it’s pretty dry ☀️


It’s the kind of weather where you’d definitely get heatstroke if you don’t take any precautions, so I’m making sure to diligently hydrate myself!
