［僕の一日｜日本］ ［（割とマトモな日バージョン）］

朝食を楽しみにしていた日々が思い出されます

過去形

Now, I remember the good old days when I used to look forward to breakfast

卵にソーセージ ベーコンにオムレツ

with things like eggs, sausages, bacon, omelets;

四ヶ月前 健康的な朝食に 切り替えることにしました

About four months ago, I decided to switch to a healthy breakfast.

一年かけて体重を減らしていく 途方も無い計画の一つです

It was part of my incredible plan to gradually lose weight throughout the year

だから朝食はオートミールと ブラックコーヒーとバナナ

so my breakfast routine has been comprised of oatmeal, black coffee and a banana.

でも問題は全く体重が減らないこと この朝食習慣は全く実を結んでない

Only problem is, I still haven't lost any weight; this breakfast routine has failed to bear any fruit.

今思えば この健康的 栄養的な オートミールを用意した後に

In hindsight it might be because, after preparing the healthy, nutritious oatmeal,

メープルシロップを1L以上かけて 食えるようにしてるせいかな

I have to drench it with at least one liter of maple syrup to make it edible.

いろんな日の中で今日一日を 動画に収めようと思ったのは ただ

Only reason I decided to do a vlog today of all days,

今日がいつもよりちょっとマトモな一日に なるかもしれないから

is because I suspect today could be slightly above average day.

その理由はすぐ話します　東京に行って日本のテレビに 出ることが 関係してるかも とは言っておこう

I'll get onto it in a minute, why that might be. Suffice to say, it might involve going to Tokyo and being on Japanese TV.

かもっていうのは 僕自身わかってないから

*Might* be, because I don't - even I don't know to be honest.

「僕の一日」みたいな動画を出してこなかったのは その「一日」っていつなの？って話で

A day in my life vlog, until now - is - y'know, what day should you do a day in your life vlog?

人生っていつ何が起こるか わからないでしょ　どんな日もね

You never know what life might throw at you in any - in any given day.

その日のうちに新品のオーブン用手袋を 買うなんて思わなかった

I never thought, by the end of the day I would have bought a brand new oven glove

特にこんなモロモロで趣味の悪い奴をね

especially as one as flimsy and as tacky as this.

でもこの真の価値は手袋の裏側にあります 感動的で哲学的な文言に

But its true value lies here on the back of the oven glove with this powerful philosophical statement, which

僕の心は共感した訳　読んでみます　えっと

resonated with me on an emotional level. I'll read it out, it says:

「これが僕なんだ 君を何か違うものにしようとする世界の 中において 自分らしくいることが 最大の成果だ」

This is me. To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.

これを読んだ時 「そうだ　僕のことだな 僕の成果の定義も同じさ」って思った

And I read that and I thought, "Yes, that is me. That is how I define accomplishment."

でも一つその際立つ文言を台無しにしてるのが 下にある質問で こう書いてある

Only thing that compromises that bold statement here is the question underneath, and it's a question that reads:

これが手袋に必要だと思ったのかは知りません

that was a necessary addition to the glove

残念な付け足しの質問だと思います これを除けば なかなかの文言になるのに

seems like a pretty poor follow-up question to an otherwise reasonable statement.

こんな感じじゃない： ターミネーターで サラ・コナーが息子のジョンに

You know, it'd be a bit like Sarah Connor in the Terminator turning to her son John and saying,

「ジョン 運命なんかないわ 自分の力で作り上げるのよ　あっところで

"John, there is no fate, but what we make for ourselves. Oh, and by the way,

シャワーを浴びて朝食べて手袋を観察する他に

It's outside of having a shower, eating breakfast, and examining oven gloves;

あと一つ僕の習慣 もう一つの朝の習慣は

The only other habit I have, the only other morning routine I do is

日本語の教科書から一章分書き写すこと　今は「Intermediate Japanese Grammar Guide」から

I write out one chapter from a Japanese textbook. In this case, the Intermediate Japanese Grammar Guide.

日本語の勉強ってことに関しては前より時間がなくて

I don't have as much time as I used to when it comes to learning Japanese.

今はほぼこれしか 毎日やってることはありません

This is the one thing I pretty much do now, every day.

日本語の勉強は本当に楽しい　僕の手書きはひどいけど これをやるのは本当に楽しいんです

Like I really enjoy studying Japanese and even though my handwriting is atrocious, I really enjoy doing it.

これをやると 今日一ついいことをした感じになる 一日の残りがクソでも

I know when I've done this, I've done one good thing today, you know. Even if the rest of the day goes to shit,

一つ気分が良くなることをしたってね

I've done something that I could be happy about.

Now that is what I call a Christmas tree.

Yeah, look at those lights. Look at that.

クリスマスまで準備OK　12月まで準備OKです

All ready to go for Christmas, all ready to go for December.

東京に向かうための荷物詰めをします　その間

So, about to pack the bags, go to Tokyo, and while I'm doing it

そもそもなぜ行くのかお話しします

I'll fill you in on why we're going in the first place.

日本では 毎年大きな年間表彰が

その年の30のキーワードに対してある

その年起こったことをまとめた30のキーワードね

for the 30 keywords of the year. 30 keywords that summarize the year's annual events.

おそらく去年は 日本の首相「安倍晋三」とか

I think last year the keywords were "Shinzo Abe" (the Prime Minister of Japan)

あるいは「ドナルド・トランプ」とか  「フェイクニュース」とか

とにかく 30あって その言葉を象徴する人が

but there's 30 of them, and somebody who represents that keyword will

ステージに上がって 大量の報道陣の前で賞を受け取る

come on stage and get the award in front of loads of cameras and stuff

本当大きな 日本中のニュースになるイベントって感じ

and it's a really big, kind of event throughout Japan on the news, and this year one of the top ten keywords is "J-Alert".

それで今年トップ10に入ったのが「Jアラート」

Now J-Alert is the system which notifies you in an emergency.

で「Jアラート」とは緊急時に通知がくるシステム

For example, like an earthquake or a tsunami, your phone will ring and go off and vibrate to kind of notify you

たとえば 地震や津波でケータイが鳴り響いて ブルブルして 通知するんです

And J-Alert also happens when there's a North Korean missile.

それで Jアラートは北朝鮮のミサイルの時も出される

They apparently - they saw my video where I got woken up by the North Korean missile

どうやら彼らは僕の動画を見たらしい 僕が北朝鮮ミサイルのせいで

by J-Alert, right, they saw that and thought I would be

Jアラートで起こされたやつ　それを見て僕が

a good representative for the word J-Alert.

Jアラートって言葉の良い象徴になると思ったみたい

So I've got go to Tokyo and accept this kind of award for the keyword in front loads of cameras and stuff

それで 東京に行ってこのキーワードの賞ってのを 受けなきゃいけない　大量の報道陣の前でね

and it's really weird, and I don't know much about it other than that, but I'm a little bit nervous.

結構変な話で それ以上のことは 何も知らないんだけど

I don't really know what to expect, it might be good, it might not be good, but we are gonna find out.

待ち受けてるものは全くわかりません

Ryotaro - my friend Ryotaro is gonna be joining me down there to kind of help me out.

良いことかそうじゃないか どうなるかは見てみましょう

I told a good friend of mine about this award yesterday, and he said to me that it sounded like a "Sick award, mate!"

幸運にも 一緒に来てくれる人がいて

Yeah, it's "sick", and I thought, why do people use the word "sick" in that context?

亮太郎 僕の友人の亮太郎が一緒に来て まあ手助けしてくれます

昨日この賞について親友に話をして言われたのは なんか「ゲロやばな賞」じゃんって

When did that become a popular word? If somebody says to me, "Yeah, that was sick mate!"

ゲロやばってね　で思ったのは なんでそこでゲロって言葉使うんだ？

I literally just picture a puddle of sick in my mind. I don't want to, you know,

I don't want to, but it's just there - a puddle, a puddle of sick

なんでそんな普通の言葉になったんだ？ 誰かが「ゲロやばだな」っていうと

文字通りゲロが溜まってるところを思い浮かべちゃう　考えたくもないのに

So we've got to ride the Shinkansen bullet train to Tokyo today, but I'm feeling a little bit anxious.

嫌なのに 浮かんで来る　ゲロが溜まってるのをね

There was an event last week that shook Japan to its core:

東京まで新幹線に乗らないといけないんですが 少し不安です

先週日本を震撼させた出来事があって

They were supposed to leave the station at 9:44:40

電車が ある電車が駅を出たのが

What happened next was a global media storm, and even though the train company apologized, the damage -

the damage was done, so I'm keen to get there 20 seconds early today

9時44分20秒に出てしまったんだ

especially as we've got to do at least one swanky time-lapse of Sendai before we go, so let's get a move on.

次に起きたのは世界中での報道の嵐 鉄道会社は謝ったのに もう

Just did the time-lapse, it came out pretty well.

手遅れだった　だから今日は20秒早く行きます

I would say - I would go so far to say it was *sick*.

特に仙台のおしゃれなタイムラプス 一つは 出る前に撮っとかなきゃいけないので 出かけましょう

But as I came out the building while I was doing it, I noticed there was loads of people standing around

［平凡な旅動画にあるタイムラプス］

I peeked at someone's phone, and they're all playing Pokemon Go. I thought that died out ages ago.

タイムラプスやりました　思いの外良かったね

I didn't realize that was still a thing. I know I never got into it.

思い切って言ってみると ゲロやば

Thought it was a waste of time - time better spent doing time lapses, and actually there's people here:

で 途中ビルの外に出てみたら 大量の人が立ち尽くしてて

They're playing Pokemon Go as well. Didn't even notice.

ケータイ覗いてみたら みんなポケモン GOやってた ずっと前に廃れたと思ってたから

まだやってる人がいたのは気付かなかった  僕はあんまりやらなかったな

時間のムダだと思ってさ タイムラプス撮る方がイイ時間の使い方

So, we're on the train. Didn't leave 20 seconds early this time.

My little bento to see me through the trip:

ポケモンGOやってますね　全然気付かなかった

I think it's chicken or pork or something. Should be there in 90 minutes.

So I'm gonna get some work done and have some lunch.

Looks alright, it's not gonna win any prizes for looking too nice, though.

電車乗りました　今回は20秒早く出なかった
