Ughhh I want that Harori photocard >_<

Ahahah the cake shop PR guy praised Sayu's sense in producing the cake design and told her she can be a patissiere there right now if she wanted
Sayu : "I have no intention to quit Morning Musume so maybe as a side business. I want to open my own cake shop one day too!"

She said her mom's birthday is coming up so she wants to give this cake to her as a birthday present and she hoped the other members and Tsunku can give the cake a taste soon too.

I want some Harori Cake >:! I need to scroll back and see when it's available/if it's available and the specs since I'll be in Japan soon... ... >_>

Man, the more I hear from Sayu about her ambitions with Morning Musume, the more my hope that she'll be on for a bit longer than most expect gets stronger and stronger. I would be really surprised to hear her graduating during the spring tour, honestly. I don't think she'd feel comfortable graduating until the current Morning Musume equals Morning Musume in the general public's mind, and I don't think Tsunku and UF want her graduating until then as well, if only because right now she's the bridge for the general public, as the only one anyone recognizes.

And after she graduates it's my secret dream that Tsunku will take her on as a Producer Apprentice... dammit D<

^It's available until the end of this month... I think?
edit----yep, until the 29th from amped's post above

After their Nagoya Harocon on August 10-11, Hello Project members will hold an aftershow talk session outside the concert hall.
The schedule is :
・ 8月10日（土）　15:00の部（Sorezore！）　Makoto, Aika, Sayu, S/mileage
・ 8月10日（土）　18:30の部（Mazekoze！）　Makoto, Aika, Sayu, Berryz Koubou
・ 8月11日（日）　14:30の部（Mazekoze！）　Makoto, Aika, Morning Musume。
・ 8月11日（日）　18:00の部（Sorezore！）　Makoto, Aika, Sayu, ℃-ute

This kind of event looks new, very curious on how it'll go and what they'll talk about. Should've put Tsunku there so we'll get an impromptu Tsunclub or something lol, that'll be much better without it being awkwardly placed in between concert MCs too.
