boy have we got a day ahead of us today and like an hour and a half I've

過去簡單式

gotta go meet a TV crewman yep it's the whole thing I have a little

bit of a morning routine but I've got a small problem it's a two-part problem so

I think we can kill two birds with one stone today part a I've been feeling a

little bit claustrophobic in the vlog because I'm always right here

Part B my workout room is the disaster lately I've cleared it out somewhat so

that I can actually show it to you guys but before I can even leave today I'm

not gonna be able to feel good unless I get some of it cleaned up it's it's it's

right over here you see this room here doubles as my workout room and my

shamisen practice room half problem half confession you see I haven't done a

proper cleaning of this room in like two months

so before we can go anywhere today I've got a clean

that's the easy part the hard part is pulling up all the tiles and cleaning

under them you see this floor has seen months of workouts since the last time

that I uprooted it and properly cleaned it I don't even want to show you guys

how it looks under there not as bad as I thought

still gross stuff still gross so here we go

also I feel like this has potential to get really messy so let's do this

that's what happens when you don't put the weights down properly who so the

floor is done the tiles are cleaned and now it's time to get changed out of this

dude I already got changed let's just lay these tiles and go we're gonna be

late all right so some good news and some bad news good news room is done bad

news in the process I knocked over the camera and snap to my microphone in half

it might be able to fix it but I'm gonna need some epoxy and anyways we gotta get

going and did I mention that today's a (Tsugaru) Shamisen day

so it is 9:00 10:00 in the morning now I'm off to meet the TV crew and then we

are going to be meeting one of the Yoshida brothers after doing that for

those of you struggling video a lot of people asked well how do you actually

get the energy to get up and get things started in the day and it's exactly what

I did this morning I like to start every single day with some form of

accomplishment whether it be minor or major find that the days where I just

start my day by sitting on the sofa scrolling through my phone don't

typically go as well as the days where I start by taking some form of action in

the morning and seeing if today's a pretty big day I wanted to get it

thank you alright guys so the TV crew has

requested that I don't post any spoilers in case we do end up moving forward with

this it's fair enough so while I do this let me take a few

seconds to show you guys what I did yesterday I'm out here in Asakusa at

Sensoji for just a moment to check out this Hozuki or ground cherry

festival vendors from over a hundred Stalls selling their own ground cherries

in the hopes of giving people a thousand days of blessings this festival takes

place here in Asakusa every single year for two days listen to the sound sounds

so beautiful also the views check out the views

it's quite the fair and a sight to be seen but we have a day to get to so

let's get to that for now I'll share a little bit of what I can which is we

were preparing for something called Mitama Matsuri one of my favorite

festivals here in Japan and we were shooting for that today I want to keep

talking to you guys about it I want to tell you all about it the week we got to

get going for the next meeting I have to do is related to that concert gig that I

landed that I'll be recording I've got to go check out that space today this

job involves not only one but several major artists here in Japan also it's

worth mentioning you see that case right there

that's a famous case that's the case of the shamisen one of the Yoshida

brothers this this is the older Yoshida brother right here, Ryoichiro

come out to this place right now to kind of scout out the location so I can

figure out where I'm gonna put my cameras for the shoot the shoot is for

Ryoichiro's other band called wasabi it's a four member group

Shamisen, shakuhachi, taiko, and koto and in case you don't already know wasabi

they're amazing one of the coolest things though is that each one of the

individual members of wasabi is top-level professional in their

respective fields which is what makes it such a great band you know what I could

go on about it forever but it's gonna be linked below so so we're gonna add some

For any of you wondering how I got those rooftop shots of Shibuya it's all on the

level in fact there's a little area out here and the music is a little loud so

give me a second to relocate on top of 109 men's right here in Shibuya they've

opened up this like rooftop space and you can come up and get those iconic

Shibuya Crossing pictures and videos at the moment it looks like it's free so

yay and they've got this whole system that'll let you get pictures of yourself

and now that we have a spare minute I want to share a little bit with you guys

about this Mitama Matsuri that I'm getting to play by playing on

Saturday and I think 2:30 and 3:30 p.m. so if you're in Tokyo and you want to

come check it out I will be there the festival itself takes place in Tokyo's

Yasukuni shrine and the opportunity to play there is a rare one a very rare one

and quite the honor I'm I'm very very excited about this I've been attending

this festival almost every single year for the better part of about 10 years

now it's I'd say in my top three favorite festivals in all of Tokyo and

it's one that I do my best to never ever miss but I think you guys get the point

not to mention the fact that I get to record that concert next week which is

exciting all in its own but with all of that said and done and out of the way

tonight I'm doing something that I never do just going out for some nice relaxed

drinks with a Friday and honestly I think that's just as important as the

rest of it reminding myself every now and then just to take time to connect

with the people around me and actually enjoy in my life it's an important thing

it is incredibly easy to get wrapped up in my work and just like days and weeks

pass we've all heard the super cliche phrase variety is the spice of life but

I think variety is also the spice of time it helps you feel the passage of

time much more if you're just doing the same thing every single day all the

day's can bleed into feeling like it's just one day and you can lose the

ability to feel that passage of time and then BOOM before you know it life is

over I'd say that's definitely a fear of life

so the other day in the vlog everybody thought that shoulder man that I was

hanging out with was Chris it wasn't Chris okay no if it was I would

definitely definitely let you know yeah who would hang out with that dude anyway
