Congrats!
Theme：RINA

There's definitely been a school entrance ceremony rush the past few days
Catching sight of many looking innocent in longish sleeves on the streets is wonderful
All those heading to new environments, congrats! May your days be enjoyable!

Becoming a second year high school student from a first year student,
The feeling actually completely changes.
Being a high school sophomore was the stormiest time for me
I moved from Osaka to Tokyo,
And HARUNA and I lived together. Then, we debuted in October.
That period was when my life greatly changed.
Back then, I listened to Chatmonchy every day. When I look back on those days, the background music in my head is 「Renai Spirits」, 「Tokyo Hachimitsu Orchestra」, or 「Hana no Yume」 even now

Memories and music are a setー,
I completely think so.
That's why I hope that several years from now, SCANDAL's 「」 will be played when you think back on todayー.
That'd be great if that could happen,,
Listen to a lot of music, okay

There are people who are shy and their hearts are still pounding,
But I don't think shyness needs to be fixed.
I want those who aren't like that to call out to them.
Because spring is a season where you can try out a new you, it'd be great to try to venture into lots of things. So that good days continue on

Congrats!

※Bonus

We had another TV taping todayー!
It looks like we can announce a lot of them soon

I hope indeed there will be a lot of TV shows soon! Nice blog, poetic as usual by RINA.

And yes I agree memories are often strongly linked to music .uhuh. Sometimes when I hear an old song it brings me back in the past and I remember some events of that period.

As for SCANDAL music I think a lot of people are making tons of memories listening to their music Nice one

I'm only a one year old fan so I'm not there yet but I'm sure many "old" fans remember when they released their first singles! Well actually my first memory from SCANDAL is old too but I wasn't a fan yet, just listened to Shoujo S as the Bleach Opening.

Also, I'm surprised to see that RINA lived with HARU back then? I know they all lived together in an apartment at some point but it seems RINA implies she lived only with HARU somewhere during that time?

I did not know that they lived together before their debut. ._. Anyways, I am surprised Happy

I listened to the three songs, and I can't stop now. :> HAHAHA
I like it when they name songs of other bands, i get introduced to new songs.

As far as I can remember the 4 lived together at the beginning then Mami & Tomo moved out to have their own apartments later.

Actually I thought it was that they had an apartment but Mami and Tomomi went and stayed on the weekends. Haru and Rina lived there all the time. At least that's what I remember.

Yes, what Af8! said is true.

HARU said on Thank You Music the other week that she and RINA lived together when they first moved to Tokyo, and TOMO and MAMI visited them and stayed during the weekends (they lived with their own parents on weekdays).

I love that line with visions of all those schoolgirls with the jumpers that only leave their fingertips showing !
I always enjoy Rina's blogs and moving from Osaka to Tokyo must have been a HUGE difference, I know people from Osaka who say their accents get laughed at in Tokyo.
Several people have said Rina could get into AKB48 with her looks but then we would be losing a great drummer.

Ah ok, so the company rent an apartment for RINAxHARU and TOMOxMAMI only stayed their during weekend. Didn't understood it like that at first thanks for the explanation. Did that period last a long time?

And yeah must have been difficult for RINA, especially because she was the youngest too. But I think we can say she did ok and everything is all well now Nice one
