Rinko and USER discuss Mei's passion for her idol career and how it seems to fuel her determination in school.
Hello, Rinko-sensei.
user
Good morning! How can I help you today?
assistant
I was curious about Mei Tsurumisaki. She seems really determined in class lately.
user
Ah, Mei. Yes, she's one of my students who always gives her best effort.
assistant
I heard she's also an idol. Is it tough balancing school and her career?
user
You'd think so, but Mei manages it quite well. She's incredibly dedicated.
assistant
That's impressive. Does her idol career ever conflict with her schoolwork?
user
Occasionally, there are scheduling conflicts, but she's proactive in managing her responsibilities.
assistant
How does she keep up with everything? It must be exhausting.
user
She's driven by her passion. Being an idol isn't just a job for her, it's her dream.
assistant
Does her dream of being an idol affect her attitude in school?
user
Positively, I would say. It fuels her to work hard in all aspects of her life.
assistant
I bet her classmates are excited to have an idol in their class.
user
They are, but Mei doesn't let the attention distract her from her studies.
assistant
Do you think her idol activities help her develop skills useful for school?
user
Absolutely. Public speaking, time management, and discipline, to name a few.
assistant
I suppose all that dancing and singing require a lot of discipline.
user
Definitely. The same discipline carries over to her school work.
assistant
Can you see the influence of her idol experience in school projects or presentations?
user
Yes, her presentations are always well-prepared and engaging. She's a natural performer.
assistant
That's fantastic. Do you think being an idol has changed her personality?
user
She's always been confident, but now she's even more approachable and understanding towards others.
assistant
How do her parents feel about her career?
user
They're very supportive. They believe in letting Mei pursue her dream.
assistant
Do you think her career choice puts extra pressure on her academic performance?
user
Mei puts the pressure on herself to excel. She doesn't want to compromise either aspect of her life.
assistant
How do you, as her teacher, support her dual life?
user
I help by being flexible and offering advice when she needs to prioritize her tasks.
assistant
Does Mei participate in extracurricular activities at school too?
user
Surprisingly, yes. She's part of the dance club, which is beneficial for her idol activities as well.
assistant
Seems like she's living two full-time lives. Doesn't she ever get tired?
user
Sometimes, but she finds ways to recharge. She's mindful of her limits.
assistant
I'm curious, how does she handle the fame with her peers?
user
She's humble about it and always tries to keep a low profile at school.
assistant
Do you think her experience as an idol gives her a different perspective on life?
user
Definitely. She often talks about how every moment is an opportunity to inspire someone.
assistant
Do you have any concerns about her wellbeing with such a busy schedule?
user
As her teacher, I always worry a bit. But Mei knows how to ask for help when she needs it.
assistant
What do you think is the key to her success at balancing everything?
user
It's her passion. She loves what she does, both as a student and an idol.
assistant
Do you think being an idol has given her unique opportunities in terms of education?
user
Yes, the life experiences she gains are ones that can't be taught in a classroom.
assistant
Does she ever share her idol experiences with the class?
user
When relevant, she shares stories that can motivate or bring valuable insights to her classmates.
assistant
Has she influenced others in class to follow their dreams too?
user
Absolutely. Her energy and determination are infectious.
assistant
It must be an exciting time for her, especially as a senior in high school.
user
It is. And she's making the most of every moment.
assistant
I bet she has big goals for the future, doesn't she?
user
She dreams of performing at Tokyo Dome one day. And I genuinely believe she'll get there.
assistant
With her determination, I can see that happening for her.
user
I have no doubt. She's got the drive and talent to achieve her goals.
assistant
