Rememberance Day

Today is Rememberance Day in the Netherlands.
It is a really important day for us or atleast I regard it as one. 
At first this day was started to remember all the Dutch victims of the second world war.
In 1961 it was decided we would remember all the victims that died during and after World War II due to war, militairy conflict or peace operations. 
It is important we have this day, because it remembers us how lucky we should be to be free, not hunted down or killed.
Many, many innocent people died during and after World War II. They died for nothing or even fighting for peace and freedom
I think it is really important we remember them and explain the youngest generations why we have this day. Because it is not only important for the people who knew victims or have been victims, it is also important to remember this may never happen again. 

Tomorrow we will have Liberation Day.
It is the day the Netherlands was freed from the Nazi's: 5th of May 1945.
We will again remember the importance of freedom and peace, but in a more festive way.

Remembering will help us see the value of peace everytime. 
Never forget, Peace is not normal, it should be, but it is not.
If you live in peace, remember who brought that peace and what sacrafices had to be made.
Peace should never be taken for granted. Never.

Tsugunaga Momoko: Leaving with her pinky up

Afbeelding
Tsugunaga Momoko will be graduating from Country Girls and Hello!Project tomorrow. Momochii has been in Hello!Project for over 15 years and will now become a kindergarten teacher! Ahhhh, The last of Hello!Pro kids is going to graduate and her graduation is already tomorrow. I can not believe how fast this day has come. Graduations are hard. It is weird to see a girl grow and do all these amazing things in Hello!Project and then one day they graduate and you never see them anymore. And Momochii, well she is the idols of idols. She is in the same range as Michishige Sayumi if you ask me. Momo has been active for 15 years, she has been in many succesful groups and hse has even had her own solo songs and now even an album! Momoko is not only an amazing idol, but she has also shown us these last few years what an awsome mentor she has been to Country Girls. It must have been really hard on her to be the only one of her group not wanting to graduate and transfer to another...

Welcome 12th generation!

And here they are! Morning Musume's 12th generation members! Yesterday the announcement was (finally) made that these 4 girls got into Morning Musume! I wanna talk about them a little more! But first of all: I'm so happy that there are 4 new members. They look so cute and pure! I can't wait to see them in action! Ogata Haruna (15) My first reaction to this girl was the same as all the current Momusu members: She is called Haruna ? Two Haruna's?! But then again we once had two Ai's, so why not. Her official nickname is Daisaku if I'm right. I don't reallt know why she got this nickname and I don't know if it fits her. I think I would like to nickname her Ogaharu or Haruchii. But anyway she has been figureskate for 9 years and her birthday is the 15th of febuary 1999. I think she is very cute, she makes me think of a very young Aika with a bit of Uemura in her. I have high hopes for her vocals and dancing (she should be so elegant!!). No...
