Can I brag a little?

Hello everyone.
This is Amyon, secretary for the Division of Cell Biology at Tokushima University, Yoneken.

I was away yesterday for some personal business.
I look forward to working with you all again this week!

Well now, I actually have some hot and good news that I've been keeping under wraps since last Friday.
It's going to be a bit of a brag, but is that okay?
Can I let myself brag a little?

Sorry about this. But really.
The students at Yoneken. I don't know how it happens.
Is it because the guidance is so thorough?
Is it because the support from their capable secretary is so wonderful?
I don't know! ♡

They are just so talented!

Another one has achieved a great feat, so I'm going to brag about it.

Asano-san, who has been working diligently on experiments and research at StudentLab since her first year! This time!

She has been selected as a Research Fellow of the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science! (JSPS: DC1)

No, really.
She was working so hard it was actually worrying. With the JSPS deadline, her concert schedule as a flutist, and her daily assignments and exam preparations as a fourth-year medical student...
Asano-san is so serious, she tried to do everything properly.
I don't know how many times I heard her say, 'This time it's really bad,' but in the end, she managed to achieve everything, which is just amazing.

Well, there is still one more huge, 'must-not-lose' exam waiting for her as a fourth-year student,
but for now, she has secured a major source of funding for her life as a researcher from next year onwards.
So, all's well that ends well, right~~~~~!!!!

In the past, the older students who were at Yoneken,
have also been selected for the 'JSPS' fellowship, which is by no means easy.
When I had just become the second secretary at Yoneken, we received the happy news that Tentaku-ojou had been selected.
We said we were going to announce it grandly on the cafe board.
We even took a commemorative photo.

We were talking about taking a solo photo of Ten-chan,
but she said, 'I was only selected thanks to everyone's cooperation.' That's how the conversation went early on. Since she wanted to take it with everyone.

So, since Ten-chan likes EXILE, we decided to do the Choo Choo Train, and that's how the photo below turned out.

We said we had to take a photo of Asano-san too.
We were assuming we'd do the same Choo Choo Train, but...

'What pose will Asano-san take for the photo?' asked Yonemura-san.

The tone of his voice didn't sound like he was assuming it would be the same as Ten-chan's...

I... see...

There was that thing about Ten-chan liking EXILE...
Asano-san is...
Speaking of Asano-san...
He has absolutely no interest in such worldly things...

A pose unique to Asano-san, a pose unique to Asano-san...
After thinking about it, we took photos in two patterns.

Plan A: A trendy group photo for now

So, we used Atarashii Gakko! as a reference.

“Wait, what about our faces? What should we do with our faces?”
“Keep a straight face. Look at the original photo!”
“A straight face, got it. Okay.”

And everyone did it properly (lol)

Everyone was pretty busy afterward, so I gathered them saying this was the only time we could take the photo,
so we were shooting even though the plan wasn't fully solidified yet,
and Kurisu-san was a bit reluctant (lol),
saying he was photographed before he could get into character, but it was generally okay.

However... the level of recreation is quite high, but are they... happy? (lol)
Are they acting like, 'Yay, it got accepted!'?

It's super funny to me, though (lol)

So,
Plan B: Speaking of Asano-san, it has to be the flute.

Yonemura-san came up with the crazy idea of, 'How about we just have everyone hold a long stick and put it in their mouths?'

Let's gather every stick-like object we have and celebrate by playing the flute!

Seriously, what are these people doing lololol

Asano-san said, 'This isn't the photo I imagined lol' (lol)

It really is. It was supposed to turn out like this ↓, right? (lol)

Well, you know...
Despite how it looks, everyone is celebrating Asano-san (lol)

Also, while I was away, Tanaka-kun ended up looking quite something.

Trick or Treat!!!!!

Didn't you say something about how you might get in trouble if you dyed your hair for your cram school part-time job?!?!
Apparently, he didn't get in trouble (^^♪
That's right, we live in an age of diversity now. You shouldn't be getting all worked up over something like blonde hair!
