<p>The sequel to yesterday&#8217;s photo ゜+。(*&prime;&nabla;｀)。+゜</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>It actually was a soft ice shop. ♪</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t know why, but there were many Ojisan holding a soft ice. (^^)v</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>That&#8217;s why I took a photo with one of them as memory~</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>And not to forget the actual soft ice, it was delicious.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>It was hot and after the filming we immediately thought how great it would be to have some ice now&#8230;..</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Someone heard about that one shop with really delicious soft ice and lead us there.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>It was difficult to choose one from the menu, but I ended up with Japanese style soft ice. ♪ ♪</p>
<p>All the 12 people from the staff chose the same type w(&deg;O&deg;)w</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Seems like everyone&#8217;s feeling were in harmony.</p>
<p>And as reward we received a really delicious soft ice ♪ gochisousama desu ♪</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>And now!!!!</p>

<p>Some time ago</p>
<p>we did the press release and success prayer for the movie &quot;Keitai Kareshi&quot; (^&omega;^)</p>

<p>Thus the press event ended without problems and we moved to the Kanda Shrine to pray for the success of the movie. ♪</p>

<p>I out my whole heart into the prayer, so it should better come true (-&omega;-)</p>

<p>In a separate room I did interviews for ♪</p>

<p>I can&#8217;t really put it into words, but it gave me a feeling similar to &quot;being able to go on through thick and thin&quot;&#8230; (&acute;Д｀)</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I was once again really moved.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>We are in the middle of summer, yet there was almost nobody bathing in the sea, but that just increased the romantic feeling even more~ ♪</p>
<p>Kyaa~~ ♪ Isn&#8217;t that nice~~ ♪</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>It&#8217;s evening already and I&#8217;m still aroused like that&#8230;</p>

<p>Anyway, it was fun ♪</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll give you more infos about the magazine I took the photos for at another day.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>And guess what happened after the shooting!</p>
<p>We ate yakihamas ♪ ♪</p>

<p>Yeah (●&acute;&forall;｀●)/Happy ゜+。+゜</p>
<p>First time I grilled them myself, so I was really excited!</p>

<p>It was delicious p(^^)q gochisousama deshita.</p>

<p><strong><big>First Preview Screening of &quot;Keitai Kareshi&quot;<br />
</big></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.kawaii-joyuu.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/0803a.jpg"><img width="240" height="320" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2047" title="0803a" alt="0803a" src="http://www.kawaii-joyuu.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/0803a.jpg" /></a></p>
<p>Previously I had the chance to see the first preview screening of &quot;Keitai Kareshi&quot; (&acute;&omega;｀)</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Now it&#8217;s finally complete!&nbsp;!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I&#8217;m really relieved that we&#8217;ve finished the movie, because I have been really nervous up until its completion&#8230;</p>
<p>We might have finished the actual filming back in March, but somewhere in my mind I couldn&#8217;t stop being nervous about it. (_&acute;Д｀)ノ~~</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Now that I&#8217;ve finally seen the complete version, I&#8217;m a little bit more relieved&#8230;.. however, I doubt that my nervousness is going to end until the movie finally becomes open to the public. (￣～￣；) <em>*laughs*</em></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I was kinda surprised when I saw the final version!</p>
<p>It really turned out as a full-fledged movie despite the short time we had for the filming. (//&forall;//)</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Especially the development towards the end and its speed, it&#8217;s really keeping you at the edge of your seat ♪</p>
<p>It became a really interesting movie (&#8216;&forall;&#8217;●)</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>However, I still noticed some parts where I didn&#8217;t look that good, so I have to power-up my fighting spirit and work even harder!!!!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Buuuuuuuuut!&nbsp;*laughs*</p>
<p>Back then I put in everything I had, so I might reflect on some scenes, but I have no regrets.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll work hard from now on and improve myself. (^&omega;^)</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>It&#8217;s still not open to the public, so you guys probably don&#8217;t have any clue what I&#8217;m talking about in particular, right?&nbsp;(￣□￣;)!!</p>
<p>Excuse me.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t want to spoil anything, therefore it can&#8217;t be helped&#8230;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Please look forward to the movie &quot;Keitai Kareshi&quot; that opens on October 24 ♪</p>

<p><strong><big>Rain</big></strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Unfortunately it rained today (&omicron;дО;)</p>
<p>My hair became all ruffled due to the high humidity.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Really. *cries*</p>
<p>I have frizzy hair and when it&#8217;s like that, it looks even worse&#8230;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Further~more~</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Today had to be the only day I forgot my umbrella (T_T) I&#8217;m already all drenched.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&quot;Mh?&nbsp;I wonder whether I prospered a bit&#8230;&#8230;. &phi;(.. ；)&quot;</p>
<p>That&#8217;s how wet I got!!!!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Today I also went out to Shibuya~</p>
<p>I was able to be all chattily with a friend and had a lot of fun (^&omega;^)</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Afterwards I had a live recording for &quot;9nine nandesu&quot; ☆</p>
<p>As always it was packed with many great topics!</p>
<p>Those recordings are really a looooot of fun, but once in a while they are like hell.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Therefore I always have to gain a lot of courage when entering the studio.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Speaking about today&#8217;s recording~ ♪</p>
<p>It was fun and all, but&#8230;&#8230; well&#8230;&#8230;.</p>
<p>I also got a bit sad!?&nbsp;And was kinda like really shocked!?</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><em>*laughs*</em></p>

<p>How is it? ♪ Now you going to look forward to when it will be on-air&nbsp;゜+。(*&prime;&nabla;｀)。+゜</p>

<p>This month I also got the be on the cover of the image magazine &quot;Cameraman&quot; ＼(^O^)／ Weee&nbsp;&uarr; &uarr; &uarr;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Happy!&nbsp;I was really surprised when I came across the magazine in the bookstore.</p>
<p>There are a lot more photos on the pages inside, so definitely check it out, please (=・&omega;・)/ I&#8217;m counting on you&nbsp;♪</p>

<p>Guess what started yesterday!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>It was the beginning of a serial story about me in a magazine ヾ(=^▽^=)ノ</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Yaay ♪ It&#8217;s my first ♪</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>It&#8217;s in &quot;TVstation&quot;,</p>
<p>it comes out twice a month!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Moreover ☆ It&#8217;s going to be different from the articles I had so far about me and I&#8217;m actually going to write it kinda like a diary ゜+。(*&prime;&nabla;｀)。+゜</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I wrote it even more neatly than usual&#8230; <em>*laughs*</em></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>And the name of that page for the serial story is!!!!</p>
<p>&quot;UMIKAstation&quot;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Yes. I named it.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>It&#8217;s me au naturel, you definitely should check it out p(^^)q</p>

<p><strong><big>Looking</big></strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I&#8217;m using a PC after a long time again (&acute;&omega;｀)</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>And of course~ ♪</p>
<p>The first thing I did was checking out all of your blog comments! ! !</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>All your warm words</p>
<p>make me soo~(Т&omega;ヽ) happy.</p>
<p>Thanks for always. I become really happy and foppish when reading them (*/&omega;＼*)</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Hm, am I a wee bit of an oddball!? Well, I assume that&#8217;s a good thing ＊</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>And then ♪ continuing from there ♪</p>
<p>I&#8217;m watching the Maybelline WEBCM right now ☆</p>
<p>Yeah. Everyone are like cute adults~</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I&#8230;</p>
<p>Why am I so tiny&#8230;??</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>But I don&#8217;t mind. Right. (=・&omega;・)/<em>*laughs*</em></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>There&#8217;s another happy thing!!!!!!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The amount of playbacks of the &quot;9nine x Maybelline New York (Kawashima Umika ver.)&quot;!!!!!!!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>It exceeded the 60,000 (;_;)</p>
<p>I was so surprised, I had to make sure a 2nd time&#8230; <em>*sweat drop*</em></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;let&#8217;s see&#8230; there&#8217;s no mistake&#8230;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Whee~ I&#8217;m happy (^3^)/</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Everyone who watched it! Thank you! It lifted up my spirit a lot &uarr; &uarr; &uarr; &uarr; &uarr; &uarr;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>In the end I watched it about 2 times myself&#8230; (^^ゞ</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&#8230;and with that, a Kawashima that realized the greatness of all of you says bye~ ♪</p>
