omg, this is an amazing entry, she's so funny, cute and sweet :)

Thank you Misa-chan!
Hope this album will be good.
Ayu had a great time in London. : D

Thankyou Misa-chan! :)

Awesome entry. These blogs are reslly interesting for an Ayu fan, how they give little peeks into her life and all that.

BTW I loved the part with the shopkeeper wanting an autograph, and then Ayu buying everything after. Very smart, unlike the other guy lol.

Also, was it you guys who sang Curtain call?

great! I hope she'll continue to post more about her time in London.

Thanks for translation and for sharing dear Misa-chan ;)

I love seeing Ayu so happy walking down the streets of London with his bodyguard and best friend Stan-chan, she look so lovely!!

Curtain Call was sang by only 3 french fans from Ayusphere (Lily, Moko and Baptiste?),
when finished she thanked them and gave a hug to everyone :P

Thanks for translating Misa-chan! I loved reading it. :) The photo of her looking at the aurographed pictures in the stairs is somehow very poetic, she looks so humble in the middle of those huge pictures. :laugh My anticipation for the album grows every time she blogs about the recording~ :P

Thanks Misa-chan!!
she's still on jetlag mode :laugh
she's so funny!

thanks so much for the translation. love her hair ^^

Good job, Misa-chan, as always!!
I didn't feel it's long when I read ayu's post for the first time, but I realized it is this time. Otsukare-sama~

And of course, I liked this part:
ok, I'll PM you later though i don't think they are important points;)

Thanks Misa! This was an interesting post~ Still no album news though :(

Thanks for translation!! :)

Love the pictures of her with the different sunglasses on :laugh

this is such a great entry, she's still thinking about the whole London experiance :)

Ahhhh what a lovely Entry... Many photos taken and shared from Ayu... Very nice! thankyou for the translations...

If you want to take a look at the video the fans from France sang.. I recorded it and put it up on youtube :)
It suprised me but when i heard they started to sing i was like quick quick record! haha



For the people that was wondering or who hasn't watched it yet :)

Enjoy!

That is SO adorable. Good voices, guys. ;)

I love how Ayu was reacted on the bathroom of mirrors! XD
Lucky AHS members featured on the photos on this entry.

thanks for sharing^^

Weeeeeeeeeeeee ~~
Go back to Europe soon Ayu !!

Thanx for uploading^^
Wow, she's so cute and kind! And she reaaally liked your recording! haha congrats guys^^

What a great read, thanks for translating!

She has so many little, funny comments, lol

^I was thinking the same. It's hard to comment everything cuz she writes so much! Haha.

Thx for the translation! Loves to read it! ^^

interesting read! and it looks she's REALLY involved in the recording process.. I could swear she looked like she was composing SOMETHING in some of the photos... :laugh

thanks for the translation!

Thanks a lot for translating...

:)

love Ayu forever....

Ayu...Please COME AGAIN.

Thanks for translation, great work as always :)!
I'm happy that all London thing was a very memorable and touching experience to her.
She has a great taste in sunglasses xD Curtain call singing was soo sweet *.*

I think the red pen was from Hatix :D She used it to sign his CDL banner :)
I'm in one of the pictures :thud I knew she would write about "Curtain Call" :heart LOL, I think crea_spain and cronopl are almost in every picture on Team Ayu :laugh But they deserve it, they are great guys :heart

nice...it feels so warm when reading this entry

Thansk a lot for sharing, misa-chan!!
Ayu's soo cuteeeeee..
love her new hair color and style :)

thanx for the translation, Misa-chan!

so funny that she bought all the sunglasses when the shopkeeper asked for her autograph!
anybody know the shopkeeper? hahaha

and she brought some of the hair chemicals all the way from Japan just to do it in London! WOW!

Her hair looks great! I love the color.

Oh, almost forgot:
We, or at least I, didn't notice that her hair colour changed! She was wearing her hat and it was quite dark too... but still fail xD
Thank you, Misa-chan!

it's so lovely, I've been waiting for the new entry
good job to the London fans :p

I didn't even notice she did her hair!? :D

I can't believe it's only been a week since I've last seen her
this is such a nice entry and I can see myself in some of the pics too ^^
She'll have such great memories of her trip to London!

thanks so much for the translation Misa-chan!!

Thanks for the translation.
She`s so cute. XD And the photos are very nice. *happy*

lol funny entry! I'm glad ayu had fun in london
ah~ and fans singing curtain call, nice~~

Really funny and cute entry!
I was expecting something about the new album, but oh well :D

and

lol nice glasses Ayu

thanks for the translation misa-chan!

I was waiting for this! Lots of great pics and comments from her, I love the pics of her trying on the glasses, and this pic she looks so gorgeous:

^I thought the exact same thing the second I saw that picture.

Thank you!!

ayu looks so good!!!!!

And bless the fans who sang Curtain call!! It was so nice of them!!

I love Curtain call <3

love Ayu :)

Awww, that was a sweet entry. It looks like she has a good time, and I think that she was really moved by her international fans. I wonder if she knows that she does have a large following outside of Japan.... But yeah, it was sweet for the fans to sing Curtain Call. I would've cried during that moment if I were her.

Ahhhhh, I LOVE this entry! Ayu looks so sweet and cute and kawaii and just wahhhhhh!!! <3333

I LOVE the outfits she is wearing here! They all look amazing!
And the pics in which she is buying sunglasses are so funny!

"However, I was even more surprised at the bathroom, which was totally covered with mirrors. When I tried to leave, I couldn't find the exit."

LoL

Seriously, how can you NOT love her? =D

Thanks for posting!

thanks for translation.
Ayu's so cute!!

Come one, announce the album already. Damn. Lol.

And I have to say that I absolutely hate her current hairstyle. It's like a young cut but it makes her look older and the bangs are gross. I want a sexy do. Lol.

Thanks for the translation! :D ayu is adorable :))

Sadly, this photo just makes me think "Woahhhhhhohhhohhhohohh caught in a bad romance" when I see it.

It's true that her hairstyle now is a very old-ladyish one. I wish she'd just do some sidebangs or something that at least tries to look youthful. The straight bangs are too severe for her look... (ALWAYS, even in 2007)

It takes someone without a heart imo to not love her when reading these entries, haha.

Aww, it's so cute how the fans sang Curtain Call!

The short hairstyle makes her look younger to me. I could tell the difference when comparing those older "You were..." lives before the haircut where it was really long, and then the newer ones where it was short.. it was like "wow, that just took off at least 5 years".

Perhaps. I guess I just really don't like the styling since it looks as though she's had the same hairstyle (kind of, with some tweaks every so often) practically all year.

I want... different bangs... haha. Though I suppose that anything's better than the styles she had for performing Sunrise. That giant beehive of hair was kind of scary.

I actually love her current hairstyle...it makes her look younger...unlike the best artist performance hairstyle...the weird uneven bangs and curls.

anyways...I'm waiting anxiously for news about the new album...maybe next week or the week after?

I think we should get something with the next avex press release, which should be out by February 9th. It came out on the 10th last year and said that she was releasing a March album... and then two days later, NEXT LEVEL popped up.

That sure is a lot - to make it her final words of her London trip...

I see what you mean. I just think her hairstyle now is cute, but different bangs would be nice too. I don't think any of her hairstyles have ever been as bad as they were in the S/S period. That was some scary/ugly stuff.

Maybe it's the vibe I get from the style....


Or because I know who that person is and it freaks me out that Ayu's hair looks similar, hahahahaha.

I actually think she might blog about the rest of her trip, since she hasn't yet touched the PV filming portion... but who knows. Her report should be much longer than this, spread out over 3-4 posts since she was too busy to blog about the usual things when she was in London.

Haha what an awesome entry. I loved how she "learnt her lesson from the previous day" with her clothes. And those funny sunglasses, she must have bought them. I think they'll come out in a PV or something for lol purposes!

When she mentioned about the fans singing Curtain Call to her... That was actually on Saturday night... A day before she left .... She left the Hotel around 5pm on Sunday and apparently she was in a rush to the airport, this was according to OyTony since he texted/sms me about it... She seems to have missed quite a bit from her blog while she was in London. But then again It's great to see her long entries with all the photos etc :).. Shows she has a lot to share with her fans and maybe more!

She always comes back at the Hotel around 10pm or later.. Well actually i think she came back to the hotel at 8:30pm once.. Only that one time i think she came back that early. (The day i missed out on taking a group photo with Walking.proud, her friend, cronopl and Ayu which she mentioned on her blog >.<) Having said that i guess the only reason she came back so early was because she didn't feel well. I mean the next day i remember walking.proud and a few fans mentioned her not coming out of the Hotel for the whole day because Ayu was ill. Was nice Stan and the staff members kept informing them though :)

Was good enough she stayed out at least 10-15 minutes every day and night to talk/sign/take photos with her fans though.

^true! 23/01, on saturday, she came at 8,30 ^^ while on friday she came at 11pm ^^

It has been so funnny to read, I saw the pictures this morning in TA but even though I had fun recognizing some faces in ayu's pics I was waiting for translation!!

I thnk she will post moooore pics and tell something more... she says sth like this: Moving on, let me begin out of nowhere. About my many days in London!

so it's like: mmm let's see all pics... ok! let's talk about this day!!

what it's sad is that they did a lot of pics on saturday morning... but they won't post them because she was wearing a photoshoot costume -___________- or maybe if we only see her face? XDD

This woman is too funny. I really love her personality. She is so down-to-earth and goofy.

Thanks again Misa-chan for translation!

They'll likely stick pictures like that in the TeamAyu magazine since whatever the photoshoot was for would be out by then.

It's a little weird if she "wasn't allowed" to post images that had an outfit for a photoshoot when she did that quite a few times when she was shooting the 2010 calendar and Sunrise/Sunset...

Hopefully she'll continue blogging about that experience; the woman is so sweet and adorable. :luv2

And she may share the haircut with Wintour, but trust me, they have nothing to do with each other: Anna is a W(b)itch :tired

thanx.i just kept smiling while reading this, soo sweet and funny

yes all the pics are really georgous :yes and that pic is like almost without make up :luv2

lol i like this new haircut but yeah maybe side bang would be nice too :P and S/S haircut was really catastrophic :dead2

OMG~ what a very long entry.. tsk tsk tsk.. thanks misa-chan~ :D

and I love her new hair color. oh~ i hope this album will be as revolutionary as "I am..." >.<
and are there any AHS member in the Pics that were posted by ayu?
:)

Oh I love this entry!! Great to see them singing to Ayu!!
Hope Ayu post more abt in London!! =D

Oh god so we'll still have lots of diary about London~

Many of my youtube videos was basically the AHS members xD.. There were many AHS members in that photo... The photo's she shared was friday night and saturday night... Crea_spain, me, Hatix, cronopl, Blasterion, YUIAyuNamieUtada, Tordek, Lord B, Zonian, Mcken200, Oytony... There were a loooot xD... Actually we all said that Friday had the most fans there waiting for Ayu! appareantly there were like 28 of us =]

This picture was Friday night one... We never got to take a group photo on Saturday night :no

http://i190.photobucket.com/albums/z...IMG_0557sh.jpg

Well atleast ayu's staff took a somewhat group photo on Saturday night ahha.. you could see there weren't many of us either.. only like mm 12? >.< @ 1:20am (LoL)

http://i190.photobucket.com/albums/z...twelvenine.jpg

you guys deserve all of the recognition you get from Ayu! i'm so glad that all of you were able to show her that she has many more international fans than she thinks. :D i hope she blogs about her trip to London more.

as i said in another thread, her meeting all of those wonderful people who came to see her in London makes me feel closer to Ayu somehow. like, meeting her is not impossible at all. :yes

She seriously looks like Ueno Juri! I think she looks cute but yeah she do need a new hairstyle. I think I wouldn't mind seeing her with long black hair~

Aww she's so sweet! I'm sad I didn't get to go see her. Her hotel was like 5 minutes away from my University =/

I'm really laughing seeing this entry xDD~
thanks misa!!! LOVE IT!!!

(this really made my day, i never laughs like this since last weeks)

Ianieee posted most of the members I know in his post (see below). I'm the one with the purple hat, blue/green scarf and black coat in the pictures of Friday night :)

And a lot of people who were there and weren't AHS members yet, joined us now :D The story about the book helped convincing them :laugh

Isn't she adorable & sweet ? :heart Ayuuu, you're so lovely~ :3

aw, i really like this entry, hAHa. sanks for sharing~. dag, i want ayu to just go around walking around where i work.. and the i could run out of my store and go "can i get your autograph!" HAhAHa. sounds like good times.

maybe she watched nodame :D Anyways, I really like her hair color...hope she'll keep it a little longer...I don't want blonde hair for awhile.

Great translation Misa-Chan! Keep up the good work! Arigato / Thank You / Kiitos ;)

Haha, how cute she is! I didn't know they sang Curtain Call, and I was making sure to follow everything people at AHS here did :shakehead

Er, what happened to the pictures? I can not see them here; only some of them.
