Recognition-Sayu is getting more recognition now
-Sayu used to go unrecognized even at times when she didn't hide her appearance
-There were times when she'd just go out alone, not wearing a hat or mask or anything, yet people still didn't recognize her
-She'd also get hit on (but not because they knew her)
-it's only been the last 6 months or so that instead of getting hit on, people would properly asking her if she's Michishige Sayumi.
-When it comes to being with the other members...ie Sayu walking around with Eri, Eri would be the one people would discover
-it was pretty sad
-she'd understand if it were a senior that got recognized since they've been around longer but Sayu and Eri had been in the group for the same amount of time
-people would ask Eri for a handshake and Sayu would think they would shake her hand next.
-In anticipation of this Sayu would lightly wipe her hands on her clothes, in case they were sweaty, but there have been times where the fan was gone after shaking Eri's hand, leaving Sayu to think
eeeeehhhh?-she's now very thankful and happy when anyone recognizes her
Christmas Present-The members had their annual Christmas present exchange
-3000 yen set limit for the presents
-out of the 8 of them there's a problem child aka Kamei Eri chan
-They all decided on having the present exchange on the 24th
-on that day, Eri forgot and Ai chan forgot too so they decided to have it on the 25th since Christmas wasn't until the next day
-Of course, Eri forgot the next day too
-When they were all called to gather, Eri had this mask in her hand and gave it to Sayu
-Sayu asked Eri, "What's with the mask?"
-Eri told her since she forgot her present, the mask was a voucher for her gift
-Sayu got her gift from Eri on the 26th
-she got warming socks. They've been selling in a bunch of places and are probably pretty popular these days
-Sayu has a bunch of fluffy socks and wears them to sleep but she finds Eri's socks feel optimal for sleeping in because of the non slip factor
-she was also given hand cream. A gift with the perfect wintery feel to it
-along with 2 to 3 cookies tossed in
-they are Eri recommended cookies but because of the small amount, Sayu can't help but think Eri's a natural airhead after all
Aika's 17th bday-on January 12th, the day of Aika's birthday, the members had work together for a photo shoot
-after the shoot, they all sang happy birthday and had cake
-in regards to a present, Mitsui falls under the "don't know what to get them" type
-same goes for Reina. They are both hard to shop for
-Sayu so didn't know what to get Mitsui and kept thinking what should she do while shopping
-in February it's Junjun's birthday. For Junjun, she found a present for her right away.
-Sayu thought about mailing Aika and asking her what she would like but thought better of it in the end
-she stressed over it a lot but decided to go for useful things
-she bought this incredibly cute box(?) with a set of 5 forks inside and cute heart earphones that match her own (hers is ribbons)
-Sayu thought Mitsui might not be into overly cute stuff since she seems the type that would probably like rockish looking things better
-but since the two of them don't have any matching items, Sayu figures Aika would be happy
-plus she reasons they need earphones in their line of work
-when Mitsui saw the earphones she said she's been without earphones lately so she's really grateful for the gift
-Sayu figures it turned out being a very good present
