Ameblo Blog 2022 Translations

## Summary

Faylan opened her blog on February 2009, prior to her major debut. She posted daily until 2013, and nowadays it only gets an update for her birthday or when she participates in a live, or when something very impactful happens. This is not a professional translation and can have mistakes.

### **2022-01-05 -> Matsuko's Death Anniversary**

Today is January 6th.

It's Matsuko's death anniversary.

Looking back, Matsuko was a ferret I fell in love with and got at a department store's opening sale.

I don't quite remember why I named him Matsuko, but it just felt right, haha.

Even though he was a boy.

From then on, he gave me so much love, and I gave him a lot of love too.

We were so happy.

That fact will never, ever change, and I'll always remember Matsuko's warmth.

I used to carry him in the air every day without fail.

Maybe that's why the memories don't fade at all ❤️.

The hammock is still there too!

Now I have Taro and Hanako as well.

Lately, Taro hasn't been feeling well, so it's been a lot of trips to the vet...

I'll do my best to give him all the love I can.

Taro, Hanako, and Matsuko.

My precious family.

Matsuko.

Please continue to watch over Fay, the Ferret Family, and Fay's family ❤️.

I love you.

### **2022-01-13 ->「Music Connect」vol.2!!!!!**

I appeared as a guest in "Music Connect" Vol.2!

I performed

"mind as judgment"

and a cover & duet of "Sayonara no mukougawa"

It's been a while since I performed live, and my excitement has been high since the morning. I stretched my body to my heart's content in the dressing room. I must have gotten too excited.

Well, that's right, haha!

Of course, I was looking forward to it! I couldn't contain my excitement.

That aside, the collaboration with Raychell-san was so much fun, and I thought, "One song is not enough!!" But I'll keep that to myself. I wish we could have sung together much longer.

Her straight and truly sincere singing voice was wonderful. I love it!

When the day comes that we can go freely wherever we want, we promised to go drinking together!!

Until then, let's hang in there!

As for my outfit for today...

(Haha)

What's with this photo, lol!

The day flew by so quickly, and it was such a joyful and happy day! I was glad to meet the Fei Family after a long time!

I hope that even those who didn't know me before got to know me and enjoyed the performance. 😆

I'll cherish each and every song and hope to be invited again to "Music Connect."

Thank you so much for this wonderful day! ❤️

### **2022-05-15 -> Faylan's Birthday Party!**

Faylan Birthday Celebration - Let's Celebrate in 2022 too -

It's over!!

It's all finished, ohhh!

The setlist was:

BLUE BLAZE

Yasashisa no Tsubomi

Kimi to Ita Hibi

~Everything~ (Cover, originally by MISIA)

Aka to kuro to hohoemi no kanzen'naru shihai

Dead END

mind as judgment

Those were the seven songs!

We had a Q&A session, a gift corner, Wakana's impersonation corner, lol, and also video messages with celebration comments from everyone at S inc! (Really, thank you all so much!!)

We even had time for photo sessions at the end, so I had an incredibly happy day!!

It was so much fun, singing while looking at everyone's faces. It used to be an everyday thing a few years ago, but now, just seeing everyone's smiles makes me so happy and grateful...

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

You know, I'll keep singing, still.

I'll pour my daily feelings into my songs and deliver them.

If that can make even one more person feel a little bit better and brighter,

I'll do anything.

With that thought, I spent today with everyone.

It's not always just fun,

There are painful and tough times, and I think there are more moments of worry,

But even so, let's stay connected.

I want to be in that kind of place.

To be a singer who can keep entertaining everyone for years to come, I'll keep working hard and striving to improve every day,

So please continue to support me from now on 🥺

I love you all. Everyone.

Thank you!!

To the Fayfamily who gave me flowers too!!

Thank you!!

Unbelievable.

I'm so happy.

I can't wait to see everyone again...

### **2022-10-07 -> Lose Last Concert: Done!**

Lose Last Concert!!!

Maitetsu!!!!

Oh no! I don't want it to be the last concert! No, no, no!

And, I'm throwing a little tantrum.

However, I've been fortunate to participate in many events, be involved in wonderful projects, and perform with amazing artists. I'm filled with heartfelt gratitude.

But, I made a blunder by going on stage with my watch still on...

It's captured clearly in the photo.

So, I think you can see how much fun I had with Megu-chan in the dressing room until the very last minute, haha.

I have quite a few watches.

I need to be more careful...!

And there was also a collaboration!

I sang one chorus of "Forever With You" with Chihiro Yonekura-san (from Miyuki Hashimoto-san & Sasaki Sayaka-chan).

What's more, Miyuki-san sent me a selfie saying, "I watched it!"

What a kind senior!!!

I will always love you!

Miyuki-neesan ♡

In these challenging times when live events are difficult, I'm truly happy that we could safely reach the day of the concert.

To everyone who came despite the rain,

Thank you very much!
