there is no impossibility in LaChapell's dream land.
In his world, every dream comes true.
I like the overdose of color, material, make-up, 
sexuality and humanity in his photos.
everything is too much in here in comfortable way.
No one can pull that off like he does.
( I can easily guess that all art directors cry for budget though..)

----------------------
I am trying to learn at least one thing in a day,
I wanna be wiser, because it's cooler.

whenever summer leaves, 

it makes me feel like I am left behind.
 
Oh Summer, why don't you stay a bit longer 

so I can ride my bike with my cut off shorts?

so I can go to beach one more last time and lay down on the sand?
 
I already miss my instantly blue dyed tongue with shaved ice. 


夏の去り際は、なぜか置いてかれたような気持ちになる。

いつも、もうちょっとだけ長く居てくれたらいいのにと思う。

そしたら、ショートパンツで自転車に乗って、

最後にもう一度だけ海に行って砂浜に寝転ぶのに。

もうすでに、道ばたで買うかき氷で染まった真っ青な舌が懐かしい。

また来年ね。

see me in the bay


Today was present breezy day.
Running around neighborhood to purchase woods 
to craft new shelf this morning. 
I am lucky enough to be surrounded Chinese professional stores..
I can buy cooking goods and hardware as warehouse prices.
(I would say prices are half of Home Depot)




GANT by Michael Bastian SS2011 presentation.






my boss took me to Gant's 2011SS presentation. 
Really good collection, very true to classics and basics.
So many cute boys were there. I didn't know where to look at.
It's sad that I have to assume most of those boys are gay...
Bastian himself was present, he was so handsome dandy guy.




I am not big fun of fashion event 
since I don't have good socialize skills.. 
addition to that, I don't drink. 
But I like this job because I can see many new collections 
that are not exposed to the public yet.
2011SS will be fun season for sure..

I wish that it would rain


today was another unlucky day for me...
another lost of essential belonging 
(gash.. it makes me want someone to slap my face).
How can't I never learn from the experiences? 
I might be dumber than monkey.


on the way home of the long day, 
back and forth all the way around manhattan,
I really had to go home in rush so tried to grab the cab.
Then, rain started..... I had no luck to catch cabs, 
every cab in the city was occupied or 
going home with "OFF DUTY" sign on the top.
I could think like "this is not my day", however,
the rain was somehow beautiful in that moment.
It was like time gets slow, 
and I am in unknown place that I've never been. 
It washed all dust and smoke out of the city.
 

Took 20 minutes to score the luck (seriously) 
cab driver looked like a Saint to me.

I don't watch love story. 
When I'm in the movie mood, I mostly watch violence film. 
Because most of the case, 
I don't care about other man's and woman's this or that.



This movie can be a beautiful love story, 
but there are a lot more than that.
I guess this film is more about family blood. Liked it.


-------------------------------------------------

My mom was visiting from Japan for a week.
It was super fun week. I enjoyed any moment of it.
She went through a lot in her life,
 but after all, she is a happy person and I am happy around her. 

--------------------------------------------------

bye bye summer, your dead heat, sticky skin, mango popsicle, non-stop Ohio Player playlist.
this summer was lovely. and struggling. 
It's all good.

Let me post this real quick.
 Alber Elbaz has been my favorite designer always and will be.
I love his romantic drape and subtle approach to the fabrics.

Really... REALLY?

There has been rumor about this, but I didn't think it's gonna happen, 
so when this news became official, I was little surprised. 

I am not real fun of H&M designer collaboration so I never scored any single pieces.
We will see.. It will hit the store November 20!

Ride beyond the limit




Eri-chan and I went to ride from downtown Manhattan to Flushing, Queens yesterday. 
My body is now tortured by muscle ache, but it was so much fun..
We stopped by the big thrift on Steinway, chill in Brazilian cafe backyard, 
and had good Korean food! 
I was surprised we had energy left after back to the city. 
Maybe it's runner's high kind of thing?
we're gonna make report of this short bike trip later on. 
 Don't know why never get tired of riding bike even my butt hurts so bad right now.. 
I love bike, because it's the most free vehicle I believe.

Day before that, my boss took me to sailing. With her and her husband's beautiful boat, we were floating middle of nowhere and fully enjoyed end of summer. Mechanism of sailing is very complicated for me, but I can easily imagine people have been mesmerized by the adventure. Ocean certainly has mythical power. 



Suddenly, I wanted to dip my body into water, but I didn't have bathing suits with me. So I borrowed vest and shorts, and she tied me with the boat, here is the result;


 
It was so much fun.... but honestly, 
I got really scared because boat sailed really fast than it looked, I drunk a lot of salty water. 


Someone (I forgot) said living is equal as awaking.
I understand what it means now. 
In spiritual meaning, you are not sleeping until your death comes and take you away. 
so don't sleep over!
