Maimi returns to Kamakura for a shoot and gets excited at the prospect of one of her lifelong dreams coming true in her July 22nd update “C, could it be…(((o(* ゜▽゜*)o)))“. Full translation below.

Good afternoon
It’s Maimi

It’s hot~(；´Д`A
It seems the end of the rainy season has finally arrived in the Kantou regionヽ(；▽；)ノ

I had a photoshoot for the recurring UTB article “℃-ute Yajima Maimi no Yajimap Sweets Sugyou no Tabi” yesterday(((o(*゜▽゜*)o)))

What, what
I went all the way to Kamakura＼(^o^)／

(1)

Kamakura is a place I’ve been to countless times both for work and in my private time

It’s a really, really nice place(^o^)

We also went to Yuigahama,
and since summer vacation started, it was really bustling(^o^)

(2.3)

Speaking of Yuigahama,
last year I went there for a fireworks festival with my close friend~

We sat on the beach and watched the fireworks(((o(*゜▽゜*)o)))

It was sprinkling rain though, so we watched while holding an umbrella…m(._.)m

There were fireworks that shot up from the surface of the water called “underwater fireworks”,

and it was moving

I was reminded of that when I went to Yuigahama this time, so I started feeling nostalgic( ´ ▽ ` )

And then,
this year’s Otodama LIVE will be held at Yuigahama(((o(*゜▽゜*)o)))

Up until last year it was held at Zushi beach,
but it will be held there from this year,

and ℃-ute’s concert will be on August 6th at 6:00PM

 

I got excited thinking “Ah＼(^o^)／ This year we’ll have a concert hereo(^_^)o”

I can’t wait

 

At any rate, yesterday was hot(・・;)

I could feel the sun scorching my skin~(;^_^A

Even the staff at the shoot had distinct tan lines from their tanktops!(◎o◎

 

I felt like all my energy was exhausted,
like when I was little and I played in the pool and came home from baseball after the sun had been beating down on me all day(＾ν＾)

I was fast asleep on the bus back

 

Kamakura has traditional shops that sell cheap sweets, bamboo dragonflies, windmills, beanbags, etc.,

so it fills me with warmth~

It was a rea~lly fun shoot

By the way, this month’s “UTB” goes on sale tomorrow

Please be absolutely sure to check it out(o^^o)

 

After the shoot,
my mom picked me up and we both went out to eat

I had fried yuba cheese… and it was delicious~

I hadn’t seen her in awhile since I stayed consecutive nights at a hotel,

and during that time, she met a cute Pomeranian at a pet shop☆*:.。. o(≧▽≦)o .。.:*☆

 

“She was completely round like a soccer ball…(((o(*゜▽゜*)o)))
Her face looked like a tanuki
I asked them if she was the child of a tanuki”

she said,
and she sent me a picture of the Pome-chan

I’ve loved dogs since I was little,
and I’ve always thought that I want to raise a Pomeranian or a Papillon, so I was really happy

Yesterday my mom said
“We won’t raise her We won’t raise her, but let’s go to the pet shop on the way back(o^^o)

I want Mai to see too

Ah But I wonder if someone got her during the holiday??(´・_・`)”…

 

While I was thinking to myself

“Eh…(((o(*゜▽゜*)o)))?
Doesn’t it seem like she really wants to raise her??☆*:.。. o(≧▽≦)o .。.:*☆”,

I hoped that this was finally my chance to raise a Pomeranian♪───Ｏ(≧∇≦)Ｏ────♪

However… When we arrived at the pet shop, it was already closed(´・Д・)

We asked the clerk,
and it seems Pome-chan is still there,

but we couldn’t meet her＿|￣|○

According to my mom, that Pome-chan’s actions and behaviors are cute,

and when she was biting around her lips while she was being held

 

It’s like our pet dog Aroma♪( ´θ｀)ノ

Ah, it’s difficult to say whether I’ll be able to raise her or not,

but for the time being, I want to meet her soon

ヽ(；▽；)ノ

Wait for me Pome-chan

Well then, well then,
let’s have a wonderful day today♪( ´θ｀)ノ

Until tomorrow~
