Sakura Festival 2012

my friends and i went to a cherry blossom festival in Zama base. it was too cold from the beginning.

we bought some pocket warmers. but we didn't know wheter they were hot or not.

70% of the cherry blossoms were in bloom. i though they weren't the best, cuz this area is cooler than Tokyo. all our photos we took there were sooo gloomy. this day was not very springy.

but we enjoyed eating some American food from street stalls, and could get a bunny shaped Easter chocolate.

we were supposed to stay until the fireworks time. but it was too cold to stand outside.

we went back to the station, suddenly heard the sounds of fireworks.

it was much earlier than schedule. we ended up seeing them from the station.

recently my schedule has changed due to the strange weather or temperature.

i miss summer time.

A Year Ago

"I told myself that the sound of my breathing was really the sound of all the animals
in the world breathing,even the humans, even the boy, even his dog,all toghether, all breathing, all on Eargh at night. "
The Boy from Lam Kien by Miranda July

this is my fave Mirand July's short story.
i always feel the sound of the Earth just like that.

so i was in my office and felt the strong quakes on March 11th, 2011.

i never knew what happened here because of blackout, 

and also my iphone was not working.

the strong anxiety has been here since the day. 

there are places that are off-limits around Fukushima nuclear power plant. 

our government sent militaly there and emphasized removal of radioactivity. 

although tons of people are exposed to radioactivity, 

it is still expanding all over Japan now.

but our prime minister said that the accident was over and it is safe. 

they told many lies and the media reports them.

thinking about the people in my company who are 90% of typical Japanese.

they are indifferent to all things. they don't care about radioactivity.

they are only just interested in rubbish gossip news and the 1m area around them.

if i start to talk about radioactivity in my company, 

they will stay away from me.

i don't know why people never debate this issue.

is it too big? you can't handle with it?

i always talking about it with my very good friends.

anyway i pray for the victims of 3.11.

this is the Yomiuri, Japanese newspaper on March 14th, 2011.

i sometimes read it.

"Japan's children of the tsunami " 3.11 by BBC

March

last night i hanged out with Naoko.

we visited BIG LOVE RECORDS Harajuku, TYO to see the small photo exhibition.

drinking a glass of beer, we saw a bunch of pictures of my fave bands.

we met a very cute Japanese photographer, she showed me the Wild Nothing and Hoop Dreams' picture. she said to me she took it 2 years ago.
Jack seems to be a bit young.

it never crossed my mind that i could see it. so needless to say i bought it.

i forgot to buy some stuff that i wanted to have, although she had a lot of pictures.

hope to see them and meet her again in the near future.

i had a very very good time!

Saturday was a bit warm, it was a best shopping day.

i got a pair of leopard happy socks at Opening Ceremony, which is pretty rad for me.

the coriander salad made me smile. yum!

the very recently i've been reading the latest RUSSH before sleep.

love frail and light design. 

this year is a leap year. i didn't expected it was a snowy day.

i felt winter was back.

anyway happy weekending.
