Happy Thanksgiving!"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Hey guys!<\/p>\n<p>First off, I have to apologize for being so bad with posting as of late. I&#8217;ve been just swamped with school work, and I&#8217;m really trying hard to be the best student I can this semester, in addition to my job (and for a brief while I had two jobs, gah).<\/p>\n<p>Anyways, today in the US is the holiday of Thanksgiving! Now, I love idol holiday songs and thinking back on fandoms. However, there are some idol songs that stand out as somewhat fitting the day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mama Grazie! &#8211; Watarirouka Hashiritai 7<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5C8jqL8FD6I?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"300\" height=\"233\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Now, the lyrics to this song entitled &#8220;Mama, thanks!&#8221; (originally supposed to be released around Mother&#8217;s day as a single before the earthquake) aren&#8217;t exactly the most thanksgiving related; it&#8217;s about a girl thanking a mom for helping her go on a date and break curfew even though she has a strict father. However, the upbeat song with the sentiment of thanks fits the day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Thanks- GAM<\/strong><br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/QZJO2xKdOOs?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"300\" height=\"233\"><\/iframe><br \/>\nWhat list about giving thanks would be complete without a song called Thanks?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Egao ni Namida ~Thank you Dear my Friends~ &#8211; Matsuura Aya<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/VMssb0OCiqk?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"300\" height=\"182\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Ayaya sings &#8220;thank you&#8221; a lot; I almost put her single &#8220;Hyacinth&#8221; up on this list. But this is a heartfelt thank you song, so it&#8217;s something that really does fit the actual theme of the day.<\/p>\n<p>However, I&#8217;m sure many of you that celebrated just care about food. And in that case&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kurakura Dinner Time &#8211; v-u-den<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/DVZo_dGl7jY?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"300\" height=\"233\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>You know I love my v-u-den, and a song about a dinner involving &#8220;stuffing cheeks&#8221; fully fits how many people approach Thanksgiving.<\/p>\n<p>Some of you might be more excited about Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving that&#8217;s popular for shopping. Well you can go to&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>109 &#8211; AKB48<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Hq_yW5z8zMY?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"300\" height=\"182\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n109, a famous store that AKB48 sang about!<\/p>\n<p>Anyways, after that stretch of a list, here&#8217;s another list, my list of things about idols that I&#8217;m thankful for!<\/p>\n<p>1. Idol music is basically the background music of my life; when I&#8217;m walking around I&#8217;m probably listening to idol music.<\/p>\n<p>2. I&#8217;m so thankful for idol music for brightening my spirits. Even when life is tough, idol music has been there to make me forget for a little while.<\/p>\n<p>3. I&#8217;m so so thankful for idols, since I can write about them for homework.<\/p>\n<p>4. I&#8217;m thankful for idols being the inspiration for Happy Disco; I love writing my blog and I have so much fun doing so.<\/p>\n<p>finally~<\/p>\n<p>5. I&#8217;m SO thankful for idols because through idols I&#8217;ve been able to meet new friends. I&#8217;m so happy to know the staff of Intl Wota, Dani, Shioka and members on various sites. Even with ups and downs, the idol fanbase is a great one that I&#8217;m happy to be a part of.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you, also, to anyone who reads my blog! Every single one of you goes appreciated!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey guys! First off, I have to apologize for being so bad with posting as of late.
