GACKT Official Blog update. Translation below:

I’ve been working since morning but because of an iffy jet lag
my brain has been zoning out.
I’ve was suffering from jet lag in Vegas too
and now, furthermore, even when I’ve come back to Tokyo, I’m jet lagged again…

Honestly,
I’m feeling hatred from this feeling of my brain not working…

Before heading out for a shoot, I reorganised the data that has been accumulated but
it seems that it will take more time than I expected.
Using 4 screens, I arranged my data bit by bit but
I still can’t see the end of it.
I wonder how other people organise their data…

I went into the photography studio and got prepared.
There were staff around who were annoyed with me doing things at my own tempo but
I work at my own pace.
I can also foresee that this will definitely be completed by the time it’s supposed to end.

Maybe it’s because my hair has grown a little longer,
but the shoot proceeded with a slightly different atmosphere than a short while back.
I’ll let my hair grow for awhile.
I really think that short hair is better but I suppose this is a good opportunity anyway.

It concluded exactly at the scheduled time
and I headed towards the dinner location where Kirisho and the other juniors (kouhai) are waiting at.
Today, we decided to have dinner at a Chinese cuisine restaurant I fancy.

One senpai with a bunch of smiley-faced juniors.
It’s a blessed thing to be able to be surrounded by juniors like this and eat together.

We talked about a variety of things
and in the end, we were still at the restaurant even after all the other customers have left.
We’re a idiotic bunch who spent there in a lively manner until it was closing time.
As I spoke to the juniors like this,
and they listened to what this senpai said,
there were many learning points for them.
Without a doubt, it was a precious time.

It was also dancer TAC’s birthday
and we had a modest celebration together.
Because none of us eats sweet stuff,
this lonely cake that was left behind looked pitiful but,
TAC, who will be going back to a bar at night to work,
has no idea that the cake will be smashed on his face.

Dancer Madoka said this when we were leaving.

『Please leave it to me! I will carry out the job perfectly!!』

It’s the start of a wonderful stay in Japan.
Alright then,
I’ll go back and work.
