I want to have a happy family. Children, I love them very much. When it's summer time, my cousin's little gang will turn up a my place and make it rowdy. *laughs* We will take the train together, and they're usually very, very noisy inside the train. Sometimes I have one or two thoughts that they are really annoying... But they are also adorable~! To be honest, regarding getting a girlfriend or marriage, I don't think about it at all. But one day, I sincerely want to have kids.
