Shintaro Morimoto - Potato 2011
Requested by jumploud
Every year, I exchange gifts with my friends and we have an uproar
It's already December but I'm not really excited thinking, "It's Christmas soon" but on the day itself my excitement would go up for sure. We also have a party every year. Gathering at a friend's house, exchanging gifts, eating delicious food, staying there for the night like that and going out to ski all together and being riotous ... it's very hard (laughs). We're always easily excited. When exchanging gifts, there was a time when I got this game console I wanted years back. I was happy because I was lost whether I should buy it or not.
On Christmas this year, me and my friends are planning this thing called, "Let's go venture ourselves to go to the theme park filled with couples as us boys only!" It's rampaging on the lovey-dovey mood there. (laughs) I like spending it with a lot of people like that so for me, I still can't think of having a date on Christmas. If I were dared to pick my ideal date course, I would surely want us to go to the amusement park together and have fun. I might be happy if a bright and cheery girl who would go out with me who is like that and (join in with) my mood became my girlfriend.
I went to snowboarding classes until I was Grade 4 and when it would be December, all of us in that class would go glide on the slopes. I enjoyed that the most. I had my own board at that time. But a few years later, when I was about to take it out from the storage room at my house, it broke ... . At that time, my heart broke too (laughs). If I become a bit more of an adult, I would buy a new board.
I was able to be challenged in different genres of activities like the movie "Snow Prince" and "Ocha no mizu hakase" and such in 2010 and even privately, I was able to play around a lot and so it was a year (spent in) fullness. What I want to try in 2011 is full marathon! I want all of us Juniors to run noisily. And oh yeah, how about me reporting about that in Potato? (laughs)
