MASSU - MONDAY

When I go out, like to meet a friend, I go out wearing my favourite clothes without thinking too much. Lately I've been wearing a big pair of denim, I like to wear a pretty tight down vest. If I go out with the friends who I meet more often I try to not wear always the same things. If somebody thinks about me that I'm fashionable I feel good (lol). I don't want people to think I'm shabby. If I'm going to meet people related to fashion I try to look like one who just went out with friends but who cares about his look. Like wearing an high-class shirt but saying "Oh, I just found it casually" (lol). When I know that I may get dirty I wear all things that I can wash. I can't wear a shirt, like a wool coat, that I can't wash at home if I go to eat Yakitori.


Usually I go to shopping alone, I always try to not wear the things as I saw them in the shop. I don't want a coordination that looks like the one of the brand. Wearing something that people can tell "He bought that there!" it's embarrassing (lol).
Recently I bought a short-sleeved shirt. It's dark red and it's kinda childish. It reminds me of a student uniform but when I tried it I thought it was fine. Sometimes I feel too old for some clothes too.
Lately I took down some cream sneakers I bought times ago. I left them in a box and I was neglecting them, when I realized it I wanted to wear them soon. I like aged items too.

The theme is about days of the week, my favourites are Tuesdays and Wednesdays. The reason...Well, I chose them because they ring nice (lol). Mondays come after the holidays so you just want to slack around, you get aware of yourself only on Tuesdays or Wednesdays. When I was a kid of course I liked Saturdays.

Last Monday...
I was working. I had rehearsals with Tegomass. When I sing I feel hot so I was wearing a T-shirt
On holiday...
I sleep in a fashionable pajama! In reality it's a normal clothes that I don't use anymore and now use as pajama (lol).


RYO - TUESDAY

I don't like Tuesdays at all (lol). Basically I don't care about days but I like Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays and not so much the other 4. I like those days because it's easier to meet my friends who work in companies on the week-end. Thursday is a plain day but the tension is high thinking: "If I overcome tomorrow (Friday) it's holiday!" and everybody hung out until late. I usually feel lonely so I always want to eat with somebody. Expecially Fridays and Saturdays are really funny! The reason why I hate Sundays is that I get angsty driving because of all the people on the street (lol). Recently on the first day of the three-day weekend I went to do snowboard, the traffic jam was awful! (èé)


Well, if I must find a good point in Tuesdays is that the beach is empty. But well, the beach is always empty on work days (lol). I can go to do surf since the morning, go to work in the afternoon and go to meet friends in the evening, this would be the perfect Tuesday.
When I go to surf I go with the car, on the beach I change into my wetsuit so I usually wear simple things. A sweatsuit, a t-shirt, a parka. Also when I go to do snowboard there's no need to be complicated. A remedy against the cold is to wear leggings under the sweatsuit. It's so nice to take them off once back home. It feels good to feel free again.

Basically I always try to be appropriate with clothes. Today I wear corduroy pants, a T-shirt, a parka and a denim jacket, a hat and sunglasses. I'm like that also when I go out with friends. I don't buy too many clothes because I don't wear too many things and my tastes don't change easily. I wear this jacket since I was 17 years old, it's the same for my beloved leather riders' jackets. I don't even use bags. I always stuff everything in my pockets. I went like that in Korea and in Hawaii I just brought a paper bag (lol). I have no interest in clothes or bags!



Last Tuesday...
It was my day-off so I went to play golf, I ate spaghetti and in the evening I went to eat out with P!
On holiday...
I go to do snowboard, surfing or gold, I go to eat with friends...Just like this. Sometimes when I have more than 2-3 days-off I organize a quick trip abroad with friends.


TEGOSHI - WEDNESDAY

Doing this work I'm not aware of week's days, it's difficult that I have Saturdays as day-off so I don't have favourite days. If I really have to say one, it'd be the days from Monday to Thrusday. In the plain days the city is not crownded, if I'm free or if I'm done with work early I feel like going to shopping. I purposely never go to shopping on Saturday, there are too many people. Lately I went to buy a wallet chain for a friend's birthday but I liked it and I ended up to buy a matching one for me too. Basically I'm not interested in fashion, I'm not picky. To me fashion must be confortable. When I go to the shootings for the drama I just change my pajama to a sweatsuit and a jacket (lol). Once there I immediately have to wear my costume and once finished I can put back on my sweatsuit, at home I can also go to sleep in it, no problems at all (lol). Today too my personal clothes are a tracksuit. I couldn't come in pajama so I put on a tracksuit (lol). Since I'm like this in my days-off I can wear a sweatsuit all day long.



The most fashionable members in NEWS are Kei-chan and Ryo-kun. Keii-chan's got a good style so anything he wears looks good on him, he's the type who can wear whatever he wants. Ryo-kun is more casual but for example on Xmas he wore sneakers with red and green on them, he was fashionable in a casual manner. Ah! I do have an obsession! I search for skull pattern dog clothes for Skull. I have no rules about myself but I've got one for him (lol).

I'm still doing my best for the drama "Dekawanko". We're doing it nicely but the concentrarion power of the staff and the actors is amazing, we always go out of time with our schedule. There's a really good atmosphere there. The drama is funny, even though I already saw that I always watch it on air too. I still don't know how it's going to end so I enjoy it just like the audience (lol).

Last Wednesday...
I woke up late and I went to the spa. After chiropractic I went to play soccer. It was a day-off from the shootings so I spent it in an active way.
On holiday...
When I'm off I do lot of sport. Then I go to the movies or out for dinner with friends. I'm not the type to stay home. In those cases I properly change my clothes so basically the days in which you can see my normal figure are holidays (lol).


SHIGE - THURSDAY

I always plan to be proper about fashion in my own way. Since the beginning I don't own unfashionable clothes (lol). I decide what to wear according to the place where I must go and who I'll meet. If I'm going out I must wear warm clothes, if I'm with smocker friends I wear clothes of a raw material easy to wash. If I'm going to dinner with somebody I met earlier I also try to change my clothes. When I go to fish I wear many warm inners and a waterproof outer. Anyway the person with whom I always go had to go back to Monsterland for a while so lately I'm not going to fish at all. It seems that lately they're trying to get girls be interested in fishing so a lot of fashionable fishing wears are coming out. I think that's good! I want something cool to be produced for men too. Anyway I already have a cool outer, it's a camouflage one, even if I use it to go to the sea. In the end it makes me stands out more.


When I go to see movies alone I usually wear denim with a t-shirt with a cardigan on. After that I put on a coat. It's all decided. Since I can't know the temperature of the cinema I wear a cordination easy to take off. I also wear boots because they have no strings and I can take them out easily. I don't want to disturb anybody if in the middle of the movie I take out my shoes, I want to watch the movie with the most relax possible.


Lately I bought a new coat and a rucksack. I bought them when I went in Korea some time ago. Last year I bought a bicycle so the rucksack is useful. The coat is black and long. Since in this season I wear a lot of long cardigans I wanted a long coat too. Buying those two things I'm enough satisfied for now.

My favourite day...now it's Wednesday! Because there are movies that costs only 1000 yen. Since a lot of time there's the Ladies reduction but recently some cinemas decided to give reduction to both sexes. Doing this work I don't care too much about days of the week and I can go to the cinema whenever I want but if I can go on Wednesday I feel lucky (lol). On the contrary I'm not good with holidays, the cinemas are too crowdy.

Last Wednesday...
The previous day I went to drink with friends so I went to the gym all worn-out (lol). After that I watched a DVD and then I went to a friend's birthday party.
On holiday...
I have many things to do! I do the chores and the washing watching a DVD. I also do jogging. I guess doing jogging is the most cool thing I do. I wear a camouflage running wear. At home I wear a t-shirt with a sweater. When I feel cold I also put on a parka.



YAMAPI - FRIDAY

I'm always appropriate with clothes. (*Doing a pose full of enthusiasm*) I don't like to choose them thinking "Oh well~!". I prefer to do like: "This with this and this...oh it can go!". Anyway I wear only the things I personally like. For the bottom I use quite only denim, they are confortable and they match with anything. In my private life basically I never wear tight pretty pants. Above I always wear T-shirts and if it's cold I put on a leather jacket. That's all so easy (lol). When I go out with friends I don't want to think to much on my style (lol). Just when I go to nice restaurants I put on a jacket. When I go to the sea in Summer since I use the car I go directly with the swimsuit pants. I bring a pair of denim in the car for later. I wear denim and T-shirt also to go to work. It's not that I hate being fashionable but I have a lots of denim. Even if they're similar they all differ in the color. Inside my mind I have my own criterion for matching them with the jackets. Only vaguely. When my criterions don't work I just change one of the pieces. Like, if the leather jacket isn't nice on some pair of jeans I just put on the coat. Ah right, this winter I also used some knitwear. The cashmere is so nice on the skin! The design is important but the material is too.

Lately I bought a riders' jacket. The design is kinda futuristic but it's really practical. So warm. I have many of them already but they are all single. This new one is double. Another thing about fashion...talking about colors, I like blue. Dark and light one. It's the same with red, I like definite colors.

My favourite day? I like Fridays. Because everybody enjoy them, since the next day is holiday everybody go "Yeeeeeeeeeeyy!!". Days like those are pretty dangerous though. Girls, go back home early! (lol). Right, the first day of "Ashita no Joe" was Friday too.



Last Friday...
After the meeting to present the movie I went to see the title match of Ioka Kazuto. I was moved as ever because now I know how hard it is!On holiday...
At home I wear T-shirt and short pants! Then I like to spend time watching movies on DVD. Recently I'm into human dramas. Other than that I watch comedies. My favourite is Jack Black's "School of rock". It's so funny!


KOYAMA - SATURDAY / SUNDAY

My favourite day is of course Wednesday, the day of "News every." (lol). Before it I spent my days without even noticing what day it was, now I'm aware of them. One day of the week became my axis and my movements on its vicinity are all scheduled, it's very good for my life. Sometimes I have to start preparing myself from the Tuesday because I think that the next day I want to say things properly, so on Wednesday I put my training in practice. Tuesday and Wednesday are my concentration days. In my days-off the first thing I do are the washings. After I put the clothes to dry I go to the bookstore, I wander inside the store for quite 1 hour and when I bought something I move to a bar to read. Once back home I watch TV and I go to sleep at a moderate time. Using free time in a slow way is luxury to me. There are also days in which I feel active and go to the gym. I think that gym fits me more but when I'm busy with work I prefer to just read. Sometimes slow days are necessary. My style in days-off compared to other days is more loose. If I don't go out I can stay all day in my sweaters pajamas. Fashion is one of my tools to change my mood so it's pretty important to me. With clothes you can change your mood, get excited and gain some self-confidence. That's why when I have to work or going out I choose clothes very carefully but in free time I don't care about it too much. When I work I never have rough appearances but during the butai it was an exception. Home > Butai location > The personal clothes lost their meaning because it was a home-like life so I wore a sweatsuit of a single color (lol). My tension got high the day when I bought a fashionable sweatsuit.

Lately I'm doing nothing but going on locations. Some days ago I went to a chinese street to film the celebrations of the lunar New Year held in Spring. I was surprised to see how much the zone changed. I ate a lot of good things and I've known many things about Chinese culture, it was funny.
