During our training and event planning, sometimes I wish I could just say "Sorry I didn't get my degree in that, that's not my expertise"...
I mean come on, how do you expect us all to look perfect all the time, without wearing the same cloths too often, become a model one day and an actress another day, then a dancer, then an athlete, or plan, coordinate, and promote an event for as many people as there are in Tokyo, involve with the local communities and charity activities, and be fluent in English (which I don't have to worry about.. wait, I speak English!?).
But we are expected to be able to do all those things above, and I would say it's not easy, but I'm not going to say I can't do it or I don't wanna do it because Ines is probably reading this blog and she'll fail me if I said that - Just kidding!! that's not the reason why I won't say those things - I'm just sooooo "challenged" that my competitiveness and pride will not let me quit on this. Oohhhhhhh I'm so pumped.
トレーニングやイベント企画の最中に、
「ごめんなさい、私大学でそれ専攻じゃなかったの。専門が違うから他当たってくれます?」
ってさらっと流せればどんなに楽だろうか、って思ったり思わなかったり。
だってだって、私達全員が常に完璧で(服装・メイク・ヘア・立ち振る舞い)、ある日はモデルとして、ある日は女優として、ある日はダンサー、アスリート、そしてイベントの企画・プロモーション・コーディナーターとして活動し、環境問題やチャリティーにも参加する、それでいて英語もペラペラ。
それって一見凄い要望。
でもこれがイネスワールド。そしてこの状況がまたもや、私の闘志に火をつけちゃったよあーあ。
試験前とか仕事のビジーシーズンの最中とかもいつも思うんだけど、少し「逆境中毒」になるのよね私。
「今に見てろよ。。。」的な。
この根性あってこそだと思いますが、何事も。

I used to always get this feeling before exams, or even during busy season. This, "ohhhh I'm gonna destroy these!" feeling... in a good way, in a "of course I'm going to perfectly complete my mission in a shortest amount of time humans ever considered possible" way, in a "you have no idea how badly I'm going to kick your -" way.
Haha, but seriously I believe this is what's kept me competitive in everything I've done and it'll be no different in this case of Miss Japan pageant.
