*Take This Waltz by Sarah Polley

*Drive by Nicolas Winding Refn

there were not so many films i wanted to see this year. 

but the above 5 movies are so impressive.

Happy Holiday

i justa made this Violet Star Garland based on Anabela's instruction for holiday season. it's not perfect, but i think it's OK. 

i'm not a critic. but every season i wonder why Japanese people are willing to celebrate Christmas, even though most ppl are nonbeliever. That's why i always use "Happy Holiday!" not "Happy Christmas". anyway please enjoy this wonderful winter season!

Falling

felling like floating and falling in fall.

 

Save The Date

This laid back image makes me cry.

i really wanna see Save The Date.

Joy Division : Saville raconte la pochette de "Unknown Pleasures"

A Pulsar - great images!!

my pics are so boring, they seems to be the same.
sorry.
 

my friend Yumi has Fieldguided Dream tote which Yumiko and i gave as her bd gift.

she put on a bow, so nice ;)

Here Comes Everybody

this is my fave record. recently i got the Wake box set.

i never listened to it in 80's cuz i was a child at that time.

when i was in probably middle school, i knew them.

i was obsessed w/ My Bloody Valentine, Jesus & Mary Chain, Slowdive and more such kind of UK indie.

i can listen to their music by CD.

but i've been thinking really wanted to buy the VINYL.

fortunately the awesome record label Captured Tracks reissued Here Comes Everybody + Singles (82-87) for RSD this year.

i suddenly noticed i used to buy many records. i don't know when i quit that.

the booklet is so beautiful, i'm gonna read it before sleep.

my fave artist Wild Nothing covered Gruesome Castle.

one of my fave songs.

Cicoute Cafe

my fave Cicoute Cafe in Shimokitazawa will be closed in July.

my friends and i visited there last Sunday before closed.

the menu is very simple, muffin and salad set or muffin and ratatouille, and some cakes.

my salad set is absolutely good.

i love the place and hope to eat out here again.

May

i didn't go out so much during the spring holiday.

but i enjoyed my days with cozy feeling.

i finally bought a pair of Porselli ballerinas at A.P.C.

Tora is always adorable.

my friend Naoko and I visited A.P.C in Aoyama for Aesop & A.P.C event.
there were a lot of coolest people.
these were the gift. the smell good :)
thank you so much A.P.C. crew. 

i'm so happy to feel the rainy day of May.
my fave season.

Another Space

a solar eclipse will occur on May 21th, 2012 in Japan.

people are suddenly excited here. 

i've been interested in Astronomy regardless of this event.

my sister took this Super Moon pic on May 6th. it was not so bigger than we expected. but i like this pale pink color.

every scene is so blue on Another Earth.

 

Melancholia did not make me feel depressed. it was interesting that the depression of the main role caused the end of the world.

R.I.P. Adam Yauch

here's my first Grand Royal record. circa 1995.

thank you for the coolest beats.

you'll be missed.

25th Anniversary

i was thinking A.P.C was my ideal outfit, when i was 14.

i wanted to be an adult quickly at that time.

25 years!

thank you so much for the awesome simple clothes.

Total Pink

Sakura Petals

strawberry is best.

 
pls be gentle, girls.

Spring Break

my spring holiday has just started from the end of April.

my sister and i went to the spring festival at the Naval Air Facility in Atsugi yesterday.

there was an aircraft display. we saw a bunch of airplanes.
i was so excited cuz i'm such an airplane geek.

we used to live in the city dominated by NAVY basement. i felt it was so nostalgic.

i saw a lot of Americans living in the basement from the window of my junior high.

everytime i saw them, i was thinking Japan was defeated in the war.

we might have a different opinion of America or the Base than other city people.
