Akegata 明 方
toward the light

Ah ... what a wonderful sound to my ears. There is nothing better than the music at the end of the night to end a day off. I stretched, stretching their legs under the kotatsu. After hours of intense hurt me for keeping them bent for too long. The right I was sleeping well and I'm feeling. I hate to hear the "ants" to the foot! To reactivate the best movement I make an effort and I stand up to start walking lame.
Now that the console is off the room is plunged into a silence in which my ears are not more used, so that, while not having to not-listen, I get the impression that they have started to buzz.
When I finally got back full control of my legs I approach the doors of the playroom (believe it or not, I have devoted a room of my apartment only to the console) and I slid the glass on the rails of the window.

four o'clock in the morning. People are still sleeping, most at least. On the street there is no light and is not yet sufficient to turn off all the lights on towers and antennas in the distance.
Is there any point that pierces the flashing red and blue of the sky gives a little 'motion to the building and silent landscape of my neighborhood, still immersed in the quiet of dawn

I let go a bit' air fresh, warm room in the warmth typical of closed places, and shuddered as it is only September, strange but true, this year has already begun to make chilly. I lean against the wall and I smile to myself, are the four, I did not sleep and must not give a damn about anybody because I do not have work today. Ah, the days off, that divine gift! They are like half boiled egg in the bowl of ramen, what do you leave food for last because it's too good to take him out immediately, or when a game comes out you've been waiting a lifetime and when you watch video of introduction you realize that it is even cooler than I imagined!
Why I love the days off? If they asked me to interview some would say "Only in the days off I can devote myself to intense gaming sessions, while the rest of my days I have to play Nintedo DS in my pocket in my spare time." It would be a lie, though: sometimes I can play so well at work and others expose me immediately. How do you ask then, "You see, last month, while working at the PV of the new single all the time we spent in the dressing room to play the video game FIFA .** In short, my group is one of those who, despite the growing fame, he never stopped be crossed by a central vein of dementia. " I burst out laughing, thinking that others would give me the blame for giving me the set. Who? I?

A lazy cat walking on the roof of one of the houses opposite. Must be returned from a night of raids: it has a bloody ear and does not support well the right hind leg. I watch him and, without wasting its natural grace, and leaps up support among studied gutters and ledges to reach a balcony dalla portafinestra socchiusa. Invece di entrare subito in casa si siede per riprendersi dall'atterraggio, perfetto ma pur sempre faticoso avendo potuto usare bene solo tre su quattro delle proprie zampe.

Anche io mi siedo a terra, vicino alla finestra e lo osservo un po' prima di tornare ad osservare i colori del cielo: il blu cupo della notte mostra un trionfo di sfumature che occupano tutto lo spazio dalle montagne ad ovest all'orizzonte ad est dove, anche se non lo vedo, so che c'è l'oceano.
Seriamente, perchè amo i giorni liberi? Spesso li occupo con i videogiochi, verissimo, ma non solo da quelli. Secondo Sami io sono un opposto vivente: o mi chiudo in casa a giocare o prendo la macchina e vado a me endless walks outside, or do I look like a cuddly or the treacherous bastard unbearable (I want to clarify that I am not "bastard" are otherwise evil). My days off are always different and always on the opposite, but that's because I want to do what they usually can not devote myself because my life is always so full of them: sometimes play, sometimes I outings, sometimes I sleep all the time, sometimes I do all day around the shops with my mother.

The cat sniffs some plants on the balcony, bend your ears to the side listening to me sounds even remotely perceptible, then lift the buttocks off the floor of the balcony and entered the house one last time whipping the air with its tail, as if to put a nice exclamation point to the end of his great night.

"If there was a dark light you would be" Aiba chan said jokingly one day. I do not remember on what occasion, or how many years we had at the time.
I spend my days in various ways, but there is always one constant: never go to bed before dawn. This thing can happen in days, mind you, but those occasions are destroyed in every way and I have the opportunity to stop at that moment, at that sky, at dawn. My mind is already thinking (and should be) to the next job, to what will happen when the sun is fairly high in the sky to make people think that for me 4 hours of sleep are sufficient to recover from a service Photo lasted twice. I stressed out?
But not so, I'm like a cat: let me get high all night, but then at least let me sleep until 3 in the afternoon. In
free day is different, stay awake on their own will is another story, and above all go to sleep after having contemplated the color palette of the hotels of every morning is simply sublime. It induces sleep. I have a strange passion for this time of day, I do not know why.
Sho kun would support Sami saying that once again are on the opposite: I say that I so attached to money (and they are: they will not happiness, but heck if they help!) Then I'm awake on purpose all the time to enjoy these fifteen minutes will never buy any financial empire.

The light becomes more intense, the number of colors decreases by switching to lighter shades as the earth turns and the sun gets closer and closer to the line horizon. My fifteen minutes of dawn will end soon and the cat entered the house without looking back.
I thought, sleepless mornings, slip into the undisturbed air clarity.

* 明 方 Akegata is "sunrise" in Japanese. The subtitle is given by a possible interpretation of the kanji that make up the word: 方 "direction" away "/ 明" bright "" purity "
** Refers to the work of" Step & Go " and during the quali avevano TV e consolle in camerino

*papparappappappappà*
Ah... what an incredibly wonderful sound for my hears. There's nothing better than the music of an ended level to conclude the night of my day off. I stretch out my legs under the kotatsu. After many hours of playing videogame I feel pain for being sitted too long: I can't even feel the right leg and I hate to have pins and neddles in my legs! To stimulate the blood circulation I make an effort and I stand up trying to walk a bit, even if hobbling along.
When I finally controll my steps, I reach my videogame-room's balcony (believe it or not, in my apartment I have a space dedicated only to my consolles) and I open the window by sliding the glass one the steel rails.

It's 4 o'clock in the morning. People are still sleeping, well the majoitry. Nobody is on the street and the light isn't enought to make antennas and towers stop glowing on and off. I can still see some red light points, here and there, coming out of the dark blue sky. They give some bustle to my quarter's sight, still plunged in the dawn stillness.

I leave some fresh air cool my hot room, that heat typical of closed spaces, and I shiver: it's just September and, strange but true, it started to be cool early this year. I lean on the wall and I smirk: it's 4.00 in the morning, I didn't sleep and nobody hasn't to give a damn about it because today I don't have to work. Ah, days off, a divine gift! They're like the half of the egg in a ramen bowl, the one you will eat only as last because it's just too yummi to mod up it immediatly. Or they're like the sensation you have after seen the introduction of a new videogame you thought it was cool, and now you realise it's even cooler!
Why do I love days off? If somebody would ask it to me during an interview I would say "I can play videogame intensively only during days off. All the other days I can only use the Nintendo DS, that I always have in my poket, during breaks". It would be a lie: sometimes I can play also during my work time and the others would expose me immediatly. How do you manage to do it? They would ask "You see... last month we were working on the PV for the new single, right? Well, we spent all the time playing with a Fifa videogame in the dressing room.** You know, my team, despite fame and success, still has a vein of idiocy". I start to laugh thinking the others would blame only me saying I'm ossessed with games. Who? Me?

A lazy cat is walking on a roof of one of the houses in front of mine. He probably comes back home after a night of joyrides: he has some bood on his hear and he can't use well the hind right leg. I look at him while he jumps between drainpipes and windowsills: without losing his natural charm he reaces a balcony with the window left ajar. He doesn't enter the apartment but he stops, sitting down to relax a bit after the effort made to jump using tree paws instead of four.

I sit down too, next to my window, and I watch him for some time before looking again at colours in the sky: the dark blue of the night shows a mass of shades from the west moutains to the horison. I can't see it but I know there's the ocean at east.
Seriously, why do I love days off? I often play videogames, it's true, but they're not my only occupation. In Sami's opinion I'm a living opposite: sometimes I stay at home playing all the time and sometimes I drive my car to go wander somewhere outdoor,. There are times when I look sweet and others when I act like a shaky brat (to be more precise, I'm not a "brat", I' just a "special needs prankster"). My days off can be extremely different, because I want to do what I usually can't to due to my full life: I play, I wander, I sleep all the day or I go shopping with my mom.

The cat on the balcony smells the plants, turns his hears listening to sounds I'll never be aware of, then he raises his cheeks from the floor and get into the house. His tail whips the air one last time drawing an exclamation mark to end his great night.

"If a lighting darkness exists then it would be you" said Aiba chan one that, joking with me. I can't remember where we were or our age at that time.
I have many differents ways of spending my days off, but there's always something I do: I never go to sleep before dawn. Off course it's something that can happen also during work days, but it's different. At that time I'm completely worn out and I don't have the strength to stop and look in the sky, at the dawn. My mind is already thinking about the new day: what will happen when the sun will be up? I know... people often think that 4 hours of sleeping are enought for me to recover from a photoservice that took me 8. Stressed, me?
It's not like that! I'm like cats: after having fun all the night I need to sleep until 3 o'clock in the afternoon.
But during days off is different. Stay awake during those days is another kettle of fish. Sleeping after I saw gods' colour palette of the morning is sublime. I have a strange passion for this moment of the day, dunno why.
Sho kun would agree with Sami saying that I express opposites again: I always say I love money (I DO: they won't make happiness but they help a lot!) but I stay awake on purpose to look at these wonderfull fifteen minutes that won't be bought by any financial empire.

The light now is brighter, the colours in the sky is fading to a lighter blue. Earth is turning and the sun gets closer to the horison every minute. My fifteen minutes of dawn will end soon and the cat went into the apartment without looking back.
Thoughts, during sleepless mornings, ease theirself undisturbed through air clearness.
