I just can't move on....for now!

I don't know why but I kinda feel down after this whole graduation ceremony was over, especially towards Gaki! And the fact that I wasn't around last night (online) during the graduation time where the whole MM wota netizens are going nuts about Gaki and Aika graduating just made my feelings worst! And to be perfectly honest, I feel heavier towards Gaki's departure compared to Ai-chan's. Maybe it's because I haven't truly appreciated Gaki back in those old days where I got into Morning Musume since she was being overshadowed by Ai-chan and Reina in their singles but that's my observation but during the 9th gens addition that was when I realized Gaki's importance in the group. As for Aika, I won't lie, I don't feel so much sadness or feelings of loss towards her and maybe the only thing that I feel for her is pity, let's face it, she wasn't given the spotlight she might have deserve after all those years she have served Morning Musume until she graduates, she even have to share the same graduation day as Gaki without any send offs like a PB, DVD or a solo/cover song. So this is why I don't really mind if she's still part of the 50th single of MM.

And this is what I call "The Moment" during graduations! It's so touching to see a flood of green lights glowing just for Gaki. Normally, when I see this kind of stuffs I would have sang "And atlast I see the light and it's like the fog has lifted...and atlast I see the light and it's like the sky is new.. and it's WARM AND REAL AND BRIGHT and the world has somehow shifted, all at once everything looks different"....now that Gaki has gradauted......this is such a tear-jerker moment, I could feel the heights of emotions just by looking at this! (T.T)

So I wish for Gaki's Happiness though Eripon wouldn't be so happy about that!

This was my favorite MM line-up despite the fact that the members that I only cared for during this time were Reina, Eri, Ai-chan and Koharu, maybe because this is how they were when I first got to know them. But what I like in this group was that their age gap isn't toooo much, I think this is the perfect age for Morning Musume members. This should have been the group that, in my opinion, Tsunku shouldn't have screwed!! I was still ambivalent towards Gaki at this time, I mean she was okay for me and that's it. As for Aika, Linlin and Junjun, I really didn't take much notice on them. And for Sayu, I was so sure back then she was my least favorite member, my first impression for her was annoying but I eventually got over it after Koharu, Eri, Junjun and linlin graduated.

And now, only 2 of my favorite line up is left. eventually Sayu and Reina will have to graduate too and all that is left in Morning Musume are the new faces with the future addition of the 11th gen. There's obviously a big gap between the seniors and their juniors.

I'm sure Sayu will do great as a leader. With Reina helping Sayu in leading the group I'm sure Morning Musume is in good hands. We got THE BOSS and THE EMPRESS to rule and prepare their juniors to make the best out of them.

Morning Musume is nearing their turning point for a New Age....I just hope it's "The Big Wave" for the new era of stardom!
