Motive. Miyazawa's.The election...Because of everyone's support, I became ranked 9th!!!!Everyone, for your support, thank you all very much!!!!! m(__)mThis year was the 2nd election(>_<)Frankly, when I heard that there would be one this year too, I thought "Again...(;_;)"From last year, regardless of what rank I get,I decided I would fully accept the result.Even if there's another election in the future, I think this feeling will surely be the same.But, as one would expect, I was really happy at today's election.(;_;)I mean, compared to last year, I went up 5 places(;m;)There's no way I wouldn't be happy(;_;)By no means I am fully satisfied with the ranking I received today(>_<)But, today I was rea~lly happy The 9th place that Sae received in this election, is a ranking that enables me to aim higher and higher.The rankings above 9th are the various mountains or walls that now stand in Sae's way.Until I can overcome them, I may stop or go backwards a little...But, I will surely overcome those mountains or walls!!!!I don't know when that day will come, but I may need to continue borrowing everyone's strength(>_<)When that happens, please lend me your strength. (:_;)In today's speech, I was unable to fully convey my gratitude to everyone.As I thought, whenever I ascend to the stage, I can't fully convey what I want to say...But, now I can!!This time, the 9th place that Sae received is, not seized by Sae alone, but seized together with everyone who supported Sae!!! And so, I want to share my current feelings with everyone! If it were possible, I want to express my gratitude to each and every person who voted for me!!But...there's no way it's that easy.The only thing Sae can do is to be energetic and have a smile on my face everyday(><)...From such a Sae, for the sake of helping everyone, I'll continue to put out my best effort from now on!!Over 『thank you』, is there a higher level phrase to express my gratitude in this world??I can't fully express myself with just 『thank you』...But of course...Thank you for voting for me in the election.Thank you for worrying together up until today.Thank you for your kind words at the autograph or handshake events.On the contrary, thank you for paying attention to me.Thank you for thinking 『let's do our best together』.Thank you for thinking 『I don't want make you feel regret』.Thank you for believing in Sae.(;_;)And lastly...Thank you very much for supporting Sae. (;_;)I don't have anything specific to work towards since I've received 9th place.But, I plan on facing each and every thing more steadily than ever before!!Since I have everyone here...From now on, I plan on continuing moving forward my own way!! Though this is how I am, somehow, everyone, please continue to support me!!I will never forget the feeling of gratitude I felt today.AKB48 17th single senbatsu election.Thank you all very much for all the support!!!!Everyone,I lo~~~~~~~~~ve you all!!!
