And when there's stuff like this coming out in interviews, Nocchi's practically a tragic figure...

>N: Well, I’ve got an absolute conviction about that, I’ve got any reason for it, though. LOL! So, when we finished the tour with a great sense of accomplishment, I thought about various stuffs. I believe I’ve had so many paths of my life. And I chose the life to be Perfume and now I turned 27-year-old. But when I look back my memory, I used to dream to be a young mother and attend the parents’ day of my own child.

>- Your dream as a woman, right?

>N: That’s right. Even if I work hard on marriage hunting from now on, I won’t be a “young mother” when I attend on the parents’ day, LOL! I no longer have that choice for my life. When I thought about that, I felt so lonely. However, now I think that as I lost that choice of my life, I’ve got so many more choices now.

>- I see.

>N: I feel my age… (in a quiet tone)

>- You said it with feeling.

>N: I think I’m about the age to think like that, you know? The age you can’t help expecting your own possibilities, like “There should be something I can do better!” Around my age, you start to think about getting a new qualification and things like that, you know? LOL!

>- Yeah, with correspondence study and so on. LOL!

>N: I think I can understand how it feels like very well, LOL! I don’t think about getting a qualification and switching my job, though.

>- Of course not! LOL!

>N: However, I could think like “I’d like to try myself! What else can I do?” Being able to think like that made me feel both happy and lonely. And that loneliness also gave me the strength, I felt.
