RINA gets nostalgic about the beginning of the Japanese school year. For a young woman, RINA seems to get nostalgic A LOT. :p

Spoiler:

On a blank page
Theme: RINA



As usual,
Opening my notebook, a pen in my right hand.








My lyrics notebook,
Constantly inside my bag.
Sometimes I have the music score look after the room.*
When I was a student,
I wrote so many song lyrics in my math notebook.
I miss that.




The other day when I was rearranging my closet,
a real school uniform set turned up.
But,
The uniform, bag
Even though they can't be used anymore, I can't throw them away.**




The new semester begins,
I think they are many people whose hearts are wavering with hopes and fears and
in the classroom, smiles and tears of those returning
I want to let these really permeate the new uniforms.***
Today's worries will surely become sweet memories after
when you become an adult.




Dinner was home made rice with hashed meat.









It was delicious, a great meal.


Nice.


RINA


Notes:-
* 五線譜はときどき部屋に留守番させる。 - not very clear. - corrected.
** 使わんくなってもポイ出来ひん。 - tricky line. - corrected
*** 真っ新な制服にしっかり染み込ませて欲しいな。- -saseru and -te hoshii together in the same sentence!! I think this is what she means but I can't be 100% on this. Very tricky JLPT lvl 3 stuff (I haven't even sat for JLPT 5 yet...) - apparently correct

All corrections courtesy of Ms thoseguiltyeyes. Thank you!

As per usual, any advice will be gratefully considered. Thank you!

Thanks for the translation, mac! I'll help you out a bit:

五線譜はときどき部屋に留守番させる。 = Sometimes I have the music score look after the room.

使わんくなってもポイ出来ひん。 = Even though it can't be used anymore, I can't throw it away.

And I think the third sentence is okay

Song lyrics in her Maths book...tut tut !
Scandal have always had that punk touch, they are quite different in character
to Stereopony and FLiP, I guess that is why we love them so much.
Just think how much we would pay to own Rina's old school uniform !

Thanks! Editing now.

I find her being nostalgic something really amazing. I mean, it's like she had beautiful memories but still she's not regretting her past/don't want to go back. she might have beautiful school memories for always thing about it (or at least I wish she have)
thanks for the translation

thx for the for the translation. RINA is so cute!

Rina ur really are something .love.

Nostalgic is not that bad, maybe she really misses her school life

-Thanks for the translation macdyne-san

I wrote so many song lyrics in my math notebook.

Ah, it's not well that Rina! xD
Indeed we have here a "nostalgic entry", and I think it's normal for her to feel that because she hasn't spent her "full student life" because after she joined SCANDAL.
She stopped her studies at 18 or 19 years old, right?

Thanks for the translation!

She graduate from an unnamed Tokyo high school in 2010. (age 18 or 19) (see here and also watch Scandal Summit Vol. 1) (around 58th minute) If "full student life" means university too, then none of them have it.
