"Last Words of a SONE to SNSD"
The following is a blog/diary entry kwa a terminally ill SONE in July 2011,just weeks before SNSD's solo concerts.
To:Girls'Generation
wewe will probably never know who I am...
And wewe will probably never be able to read this..^^
But there's someone who always diligently reposts my words so perhaps there is a chance.
I first saw wewe ...September 2007...such a long time ago,right?
I bet wewe guys must also cringe at how wewe were back then...
Up until now,I had never been a shabiki of anything...
So how did I end up liking wewe so much?
I became addicted to cigarettes despite having been in ill-health and I came to like wewe guys so much that I began to regret this,
When the first SONE fanclub was open...I wondered what the point of going that far would be.
To this day,I regret not joining....and last mwaka I could not because I came down with a sudden illness...
I regret so much that I couldn't be zaidi active in supporting you.
I realised too late how amazing it is to hang out with people,SONE,who loved wewe and thought dearly of wewe as much as I did...
And 2008,when joy became horror...I had nobody to console au to be consoled by
But I stoically waited for you.And when it passed...and I saw the teaser for Gee
I cried silently.
Thank you.Thank wewe so much.Thank wewe for returning to our side..
But as wewe began your activities and I came to see wewe zaidi often...
I began to forget to take care of my own body...
This would have been the first time,and last,solo tamasha that I could have attented..
I'm sorry..sorry that I don't even have the strength to attend them now.
From the begining to the end...I upendo wewe all...I wanted to see you....
I have never said"Right now,it's Girls'Generation" to you....
And so from now on,as long as my eyes are open and I still breathe,I will keep regretting...
I am not sad that I may have to go to America...
wewe guys are really famous now...no matter where I go,I can still hear news about you.
To you....I am just one of the hundreds of thousands of SONE...
In a tamasha arena,I am just one of the hundreds of SONE chanting for you....
On your birthday,I am just one of the hundreds of SONE uandishi letters to you...
Despite all that,I still like it all...
Because I feel your love...
I feel myself thinking so dearly of you,loving you...
Have I ever been a shabiki of anything this much in my life?
In the precious little time I have left,will I stop being this much of a fan?
I don't think so.
wewe know,even if I'm just one of
Hundreds of thousands...hundreds...I don't mind.
SONE who say"I upendo wewe all forever"....
These really are the amazing people...
I don't know if anyone else will see me like this,too....
But however I appeared...but SNSD!You...all wewe need to know is this:
No matter where wewe are,no matter what wewe do...
We will be cheering wewe on.
Congratulations on your sekunde solo concert...and I hope that wewe will stay healthy this year,too.
From,
a SONE among hundreds of thousands
