Opening talk.
Sayumi loves Halloween, mostly because Ai-chan influenced her. Last year she had a Halloween party with Ai and Eri. This year its with Ai, Eri and Ai’s friends and Eri’s sister and their mothers. Unfortunately Ai’s sister couldn’t join them. The mothers made various dishes while Sayu and Eri went to buy cake. They bought two cakes, one for the party and one for Ai’s birthday since they didn’t get to give her a cake yet. Ai also brought ice cream cake, and they also bought loads of tidbits. And had loads of fun.
Sayu no Kobeya
- Listener played a quiz game in an arcade, one of the questions is to guess a person out of 4 given hints (person being Sayumi). First hint = is a 6gen member Sayumi, Eri or Reina. The listener got too excited and clicked on Sayumi immediately so he/she didn’t get to see the next 3 hints.] Apparently Sayu wants to have a chance to play this game too.
- [Elder Club graduation.] Sayumi was shocked about their graduation as she felt that the elder club HAS to be there so it’s weird to know that they won’t be able to meet as much anymore. Especially Ishikawa Rika whom she will have talks with once in a while about their progress and so on. It’s refreshing for Sayumi so she feels quite sad about it but wished they all do their best at the same time.
- [Resonant Live at Nagoya] was a very hot concert and the audience, both in arena and family seats, at a very close distance. Sayumi sweated a lot because of the heat so she bunned her hair instead of her usual hairstyle.
- [Yurumaki Sayumin] In a picture comment that Sayumi made, she wrote “Yurumaki Sayumin” which is what Sayumi names her hair style. It means to have made her hair lightly curled/wavy.

I don’t feel that way but when others see us together, they frequently ask me if its bothersome to be with her. Koharu is also childish like Eri but for Eri’s case she takes her surroundings to consideration before she acts childishly so its no problem at all. She’s really fun to be with too like during the Halloween party. They all came over to my house, I have a mop at house and Eri just used that mop and just started running around the hallway mopping away doing things that no one will understand. Sometimes I do wonder why she starts doing these kind of things all of a sudden but I’ve never thought that she’s a bother before.

Ending mail.
Morning Musume Calendar. Sayumi and Koharu were in charge of Autumn so the photographer told them that there is no need to move around too much. But Koharu just keeps hugging Sayumi and sticking very close to Sayumi. When the photographer is takeing shots Koharu will tell Sayumi to do Kyaranari (to pretend to be of another character) and Sayumi would often remind her that now is not the time. Koharu brings her face extremely close to Sayumi’s and says that she has make up on now so she shouldn’t be so close. Even though it was quite troublesome for Sayumi, she still had fun.
