MOA KIKUCHI Self Biography before Sakura Gakuin:
-
Born at July 4th, 1999, my mom said I was small, and the sunset was so beautiful when I was born. For your information,
the little Moa in home videos often talks about when I was still in my mom's womb. I still vaguely remember how my mom's womb was like! Isn’t it amazing?
-
2 to 3 years old: Started to work for magazines.
-
1st grade: I saw “Kirarin Revolution” on “Chao” Magazine and decided to become an idol, the first CD I bought with my
allowance is “Chance!” of Kirarin Revolution!
-
2 to 3 grade: Was the class representative! Being put forward for it.
-
2nd grade: My friend asked me to try the Chao Girls audition, so attracted by a prize that I applied for it and passed,
had to take lessons in Osaka and Tokyo but kept going, it was fun!
-
3rd grade: Joined to the Basketball Club just for a year and it was fun. I’m going to have a basketball shooting test in
the next physical education class, I’m confident in it. Oh, also won a prize on a collage contest!
- 4th grade: My grades were at the best around the time! I liked all subjects, got straight double circles (A) except for 2 single circles (B), and met Yui this year.
- 5th grade: Joined Sakura Gakuin lessons, by the way Rau-chan looked after me first, I was with Nene-don (Sugisaki Nene) and Marina-chan at the Chao Girl audition so we already knew each other.
