aching

i want to escape from everything that's bothering me, and lie on the grass under the sun.

i am looking forward to watching this new movie called "Tanner Hall", a story about four teenage girls.

I love films about teenage girls, especially with school uniforms. (So as Virgin Suicides! )

Oh wait, "An Education" used uniforms too.. They were very classic, just like this one :)

Rooney Mara, who is playing the main role for this film, is also acting the main character 

for the new movie called "the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo". She transformed into a goth girl with 

nose pierces. Such a huge change, but i liked it! lol I'm very excited to watch both of

the films, because Rooney is the girl who got marked from David Fincher as a new big star!!

These pictures really remind me of Virgin Suicides. Quiet, cold, sad, but soft. 

ahh, i need chocolate! lol

yes, we are super.

wait,

I want macarons, not diamonds.

it's all happening

Today, I just realized that there are only two months left for this year :O

2011 was the fastest year in my entire life. Probably that's because

I've been busy all the time with my school events, but I just can't believe that 

7 months have already passed after the trip to Paris! Time flies so fast and it scares me.

Oh and I forgot to mention this in here, I turned into seventeen last Saturday!

It was the best birthday, and everyone gave me wonderful messages that

were so touching... I love birthdays..I mean,who doesn't like them?lol

Talking about the subject, I watched "Almost Famous" a few days ago.

It was the third time to watch it, but I enjoyed it anyways! I always think that the best

 movies are the ones that you still love regardless how many times you've watched.

AND, this movie is exactly that kind of one.

The scene where Penny-Lane wipes her tears... is unforgettable.

"We are not Groupies. Groupies sleep with rockstars because they want to be near someone famous. 

We are here because of the music, we inspire the music. We are Band Aids." -Penny Lane

Kate Hudson was perfect for Penny-Lane. Strong, crazy, lovable, but sensitive.

Not just Penny, but Sapphire is one of my favorite characters too.

"They don't even know what it is to be a fan. Y'know? To truly love some 

silly little piece of music, or some band, so much that it hurts." -Sapphire

Ah, I love every single word of this film.

When they sing along to Elton John's "Tiny Dancer"in the bus, I felt there is nothing

better than gather up with your friends, chill out, and do nothing.

"Almost Famous" is a movie about music, rock and roll, love, family, etc.

but I think the most important theme they wanted to tell was "friendship".

When people find their soul mate, they will find home.

" I always tell the girls, never take it seriously, if ya never take it seriosuly, ya never get hurt, 

ya never get hurt, ya always have fun, and if you ever get lonely, just go to the record store and visit your friends. "

-PennyLane

1.2.3.

"Countdown", the new music video from Miss. B was simple, yet impeccable

and it gave me goose bumps! The bright colors and the 60s retro fashion matched

 with the song wonderfully, and it's unbelievable that her dance moves are 

great as usual even though she's pregnant! <3 I especially liked

this particular comment on youtube : "It's not Jay-Z's child, it's Destiny's child."

so true :) lol

there's a land once I dreamed of

Sometimes, I wish we all lived in a fairytale. 

At the S/S 2012 collection, Marc Jacobs used flowers, laces, feathers, 

anything fragile to create a magical wonderland for his Louis Vuitton show. 

All of the clothes looked as if they were floating in water.. Airy, light, and sensitive 

may be the best words to describe. Also, I really loved the idea of using a huge 

carousel for the set, and the music matched perfectly too. It reminded me the days at

 Disneyland with my family when I was small. The carousel was glowing in the 

dark night, and it looked gorgeous than anything else.

I realized that a carousel can be beautiful in pure-white too. It looks more mystic :)

    

Marc Jacobs lead us to the world we used to believe in childhood.

I think he's some kind of a wizard in real life..lol

almost famous

hi there! again, long time no see but i'm alive so don't worry.lol

I've been dreadfully busy for the past few weeks, and had vast amounts of works to do,

but it's finally almost ending. It's sad when I think the things I couldn't able

to do, but I decided to look the other side; things that I accomplished. :)

After this busy week ends, I am planning to go watch the glee movie
(probably 2 or 3 times to fulfill my satisfaction), go shopping at Osaka,
and eat bunch of Laduree macarons at Isetan! I have a reason for the last one,
because a few days ago, I met the lovely Voguette blogger Kurara-san at the Laduree cafe,
and the macaron ice-cream that we ordered tasted SUPER delicious.

 I didn't have much time to spend for shopping, so my closet looks completely summer.
I need more knits and furs and...something that looks warm!
Then, I found this picture in my computer, that utterly attracted my attention.
Erin Wasson's style always makes me feel jealous. There's no one who can bring a big
fur poncho with tie dye wide pants and look so damn cool. sigh*

I want a little more wildness for this season! Can't wait to go out shopping!

Before that, I need to do my best on my dance & band performance :)
