One of My Inspirational People, Mizushima Hiro^^
I love watching japanese dorama best :) .I watch it almost everyday, in my spare time at night and sometimes until the dawn, kekeke :D. When I feel down for no reason, have no passion and no books to read, watching japanese dorama can be the one of my solution to make me feel better. At least, when I haven't enough time to go out for refreshing, it still make me consoled.From those "unstoppable" hobby, I got to know him for the first time. First, when he acted as Nanba Minami [ Nanba Senpai ] in Hanazakari no Kimitachi e or Hana Kimi, then as well at Lovely Complex, Zettai Kareshi, Gokusen, Mei-chan no Shitsuji and also at Kanojo to no Tadashii Asobikata. I wish I could watch 100 Scene no Koi, Tokyo Dogs, Mr. Brain, BECK: Mongolian Chop Squad too, where he acted as the main role.
This is Mizushima Hiro :)
I love his gorgeous smile^_^

My first impressions of him was ordinary, nothing seemed special until I found more about his early life and career. For me, at first he was just a cute actor who fit funny character in both of his face expressions and his actions perfectly, but then I did thought of him that he had more talents than that, after I learned more about him.
His early life:*taken from wikipedia.org*
*Mizushima was born in Tokyo on 13 April 1984. He has one older sister. When he was six years old, his family moved from Japan to Switzerland due to his father's job. He lived in Zurich, Switzerland for six years, where he became fluent in English and developed an interest in soccer. His family returned to Japan when he was twelve years old.
Mizushima went to the junior high school and the high school of Toin Gakuen and belonged to the soccer club of the school. When he was in the twelfth grade, he worked as a regularmidfielder in The 81st All Japan High School Soccer Tournament. His team advanced to the semifinals, but, they were defeated by Kunimi High School that had Sota Hirayama who played in the U-20 FIFA Youth Championship.
In April, 2003, Mizushima entered the Faculty of Environmental Information, Keio University. (He graduated in March 2008.)
In 2004, Mizushima began to work as a fashion model to earn money to study abroad while at college. Then he worked modelling in the fashion show for a while. However, he was spotted and recruited as a potential actor by the acting agency Ken-On and transferred from the modeling agency Gig Management Japan to Ken-On.*
This were 6 reasons why I added him to my list of inspirational people:
- He graduated from the Faculty of Environmental Information, Keio University. Keio University was known as the oldest institute of higher education in Japan. In Keio or Keidai, Hiro was majoring Policy. No one could ever doubt his cleverness since he could make Keidai as his college. He also became fluent in English and Japanese as a result of his early life in Switzerland. Majoring Policy in Keidai, fluent in English and Japanese, those 2 reason was enough to make me proud of him, and someday, I wish I could be accepted in Keidai too, so we could became the same alumny, kekeke :D I'd love to meet him in such alumny event [ day dreaming :P ]
- He worked to earn money to study abroad while at college. From my college days in this past 5 years, there was a moment when I earned money for savings by worked in projects, maybe just 3 times :( and I was happy I had those experience, although, compared with my friends in the same major I was still lack of experience to earn money by worked in project. From those experience, I did thought that both worked in project and earned money wasn't as easy as it seemed ('_'), so that, I thought Hiro was great because of his effort. Worked to earn money to study abroad while at college? I was still couldn't make it!! T.T
- He get married and always support his wife, Ayaka who battles with graves disease. Get married with someone means we must share happy and sad each other. And Hiro proved it! He married Ayaka, despite the fact that he knew she had graves disease. He always there to support Ayaka when she has struggle with her disease. He once said to his fans that he did it in order that Ayaka fans will accept him to marry Ayaka and give their trust that he'll make her happy and have no regret for marry him. Because of this, once again, I feel touched by the gentle of Hiro :).
- He left his career as an actor to pursue a writing career
Kagerou, his very first book
Hiro take the decision to left his career as an actor in time when he is at the top of his career. The reason behind his decision was to pursue a writing career. He didn't have any experience in writing before, but he said, to be a writer is one of his dream. When he began his career as an actor, his parents declined his decision because they didn't have faith in him that he'll be a successful actor in the future. Then he proved it to his parents until he finally became one of the succesful actor in Japan. *Both Hana Kimi and Zettai Kareshi where he was took the main role were became the most popular dramas of Japan at the time of their airing*. But, not long after those achievement, he left his talent agency and begin to write his very first novel entitled "Kagerou" [ written under the pen name Saito Tomohiro, which is also his real name ]. Public didn't know Hiro debut as a writer until he won the 5th Poplar Publishing Grand Prize for Fiction which one more time also became his proof as a successful writer. The things I like from him except his stubborness in pursue his dreams and take the decision whatever that might happen later was his generous for declined the prize money and instead requested the organizers that it be used to promote literature in Japan.
Mizushima Hiro, you're just too good to be true.. :)
You make me learn the importance of keeping my dreams alive and the effort I must make to pursue my dreams..
