Late as usual. Looks like I come on here more often to ramble during school. And now that I'm on holidays, I've nothing to say :D Haven't been checking my f-list either o.O Been pretty busy recently, started driving lessons this week. Only one and half weeks left till the new semester. This is probably the shortest holiday yet.

小健, 生日快乐!



Miyake Ken turns 30th today!! Happy Birthday Ken XD

Let's take the opportunity to talk about him. What can I say, he'll always be my favourite member in V6. There's a certain sense of openness about him, like the way Go described him on SCP, he lives very freely. I'm not sure how to express it in English without sounding awkard. 一种坦荡荡的生活方式。开朗，不被拘束，自由自在的。最喜欢他笑的时候，他那阳光般的笑容，好像温和的下午，不知不觉，你也被感染了。由其他害羞时就会低下头微笑，你的心在那一瞬间也会被牵动到。似纯真的性格，却明显有几份成熟的味道。常常在那明亮的眼睛后，查觉到种种的忧郁。

His smile is very bright, although people tend to say he is like a kid, but ever so often behind those eyes that seem to sparkle with mischief, there is a sort of heaviness or melancholy. I've never heard anyone in the English fandom say this, but Chinese fans always mention this about Ken. And is something I've always sensed, but especially when he is being thoughtful, or during times when he spaces out. 总之，一种说不出的忧郁感。 Actually, all V6 members tend to space out at least a few times in any interview. haha. Which I kinda like, because they look cute when they space out ;D



「 きょうを一生懸命過ごさなきゃ、前進なんて、できっこない。　
きょうがあることが幸せと思えたら、それが前進できた時。
KEN 」

『 今天若不努力認真的過，是沒辦法前進的...
如果說到今天有什麼幸福的事...那就是能往前邁進的時候。』

(If we do not live to our best ability today, there is no way one can move forward...
If you talk about a happy event that has occured today... it was the time when one had the opportunity to advance forward. -- Ken)

I think his positive outlook to life has also garnered him a lot of fans. And the one thing he is most famous for is his care for the environment. Apparently he wakes up early on weekends and joins clean up teams to pick waste. He avoids taking the car and either cycles or sits public transport. He also has this big thing about recycling :) Anyway, I personally never really understood why I prefer certain artists over others. Its the same with Ken. I wish him all the best as he enters into his 30th year of life. AND he should get married :D
