Morningーーーー！！
Yesterday was Riho's graduation announcement.
My classmates will go down to 3 total people.
It's kinda strange isn't it... lol
I knew that sometime one of my classmates would be leaving.
This is the 9th gen's 5th year!
I thought about how that much time has already passed.
Riho was the first out of the 9th gen to find out her dreams!!
It sure is difficult when your dream is to be in Morning Musume. to decide what to do next.
I think it's a really great thing that she's been able to find out what her next dream is!!
Though I'll probably be sad at the graduation, I want to send out a smile to her!!
The last tour that all 4 of us in 9th gen can do is beginning...
I hope we can make memories as the 9th gen over the next 2 months lol
Since I've never been thinking about graduation since I joined, I can only be frantic about what's going on in front of me now.
Learning about my classmate's graduation has just gotten me to think about graduation!
Eri also will reflect upon each concert we have, and I want to work hard for these next two months!
