Old Photos...
12-28-08
For 2008, we only have 3 days left... Time goes fast as usual.. and when I look back, I ask myself if I achieved any of my goals... I had 5 goals this year, like cook often, read more, study about web design more, stop being lazy and keep cleanness in my rooms. Hmmm... I think I did all of them! I definitely cooked a lot. Thanks to Aya chan. Read more - yes, Study more -Mmm.. kinda yes, stop being lazy... - sometimes yes and no, and keep cleanness... I tried! Anyway, I was cleaning my house today, and look what I found. Old Photos!! Those glamour shots.. All the photography portfolio pieces.. I tried to organize and throw most of them away but I had to keep some of them. They mean a lot to me and I just can't make them as a garbage...
I still have a lot more stuff to organize but I only have a day to do this before 2008 is over! Can I make it? Can I not...??
またまた年末がやって参りました!早いな〜〜。30越えると本当に時間が経つのが早くなる!なんで??年末が来ると反省という意味で1年間を振り返るけど今年はちゃんと5つの目標を決めていてなるべく達成させようとがんばりました!掃除、勉強、読書、料理と多分全部制覇できたかな?(料理はあやちゃんに感謝!)ということで、今日その目標の一つ「掃除」をしようと思い、クローゼットの中を整理してたら、大学生の頃撮った写真がごろりごろりとた〜〜くさん出て来ました。ぎゃ〜、グラマーショット第2弾見つけちゃったし! (でも今回のは前回のよりもましだと思うが、、、)当時ポトフォリオに入れていた写真とかも含めて色々でてきて多分4年の間何百本と撮ったのにやっぱりネガティブを見るとその時どういう状態で撮ったのかとか場所はどこだったとか鮮明に思い出されて懐かしかった。ほとんど捨てる勢いで掃除を始めたのに、これを見てしまうとやっぱり捨てられない!!もう本当にだめなやつは今日捨てたり、Good Will(前の旦那の写真が立派な額に入ってやつも含めて...。どこにたどり着くんだろう、私のアートは、、、ふふふ、、、悪いことしちゃったかな、、、)に寄付したのもあります。しかし、思い出がたくさんありすぎる物に対して弱いよな、私って、、、。
It was 1996 when I went to Oahu, Hawaii for the first time with my friend.
1996年に初めてハワイに行った時。結構この頃から太ってるわね、私、、。
My beautiful German friend, Birgit.
Self portrait shot. I was smoking then...
セルフポートレイトに乞っていた時。
この頃たばこ吸ってたんだな〜。
Around this time, I was experimenting with Polaroid in many ways.I still like this photo because it looks kind a painting even though my professor thought this was a crap.
この頃、ポラロイドを使って色んなことを実験してた。
この手法, 絵画のように出てくるから結構気に入って色々やってたんだけど、この頃の私の教授は認めてくれなかったなー。
I forgot her name.... but I met this French girl in 3D art class. I really thought she was intelligent and cool to hang out with so I decided to shoot her. I didn't use this photo for my portfolio piece though...
3Dアートのクラスで一緒になった建築家になりたい!と言っていたフレンチの友達。名前忘れちゃった。今頃は建築家になってるのだろうか...。
None of those photos made it to my portfolio by the way... I will put those good ones later. ;P
ちなみにここに上げた写真全部、ポトフォリオに入ってないよ。良い写真はまた今度。

Beginning of Summer/初夏
5-15-08
Finally the weather is getting warmer... I prefer being in coldness though
it's already mid-May and until yesterday it was still cool! WTF!! Every morning, I always take a
time and think what to wear, and worry if it's gonna be cold when I'm done working
and go home. Now I don't have to. :) I heard the heat wave is coming in this weekend.
One of my great friends is having a birthday picnic at Griffth Park on this Sat., and
I am kinda worried if we are not going to thirst and dying on the grass...
After working out at Curves, I usually take around 15- 20min to go home by walking.
It was such a lovely evening. I had to take some photos.
It's hitting by the sunset and looks so pretty.
I think they are prime rose? Not sure...
The purple one you see next to the rose is called
"Jacaranda". I just learned this name today from
my another great friend "Junee"'s blog "Neko-Chan City".
今日はやーーっと5月らしくなってきたというか仕事が終わってビルからでた途端、とても暖かく、気持ちよかったー。昨晩も出かけたせいで、今朝から疲れが取れずに超眠かったし、仕事の後もずーっと歩きながらジムに行く、行かないと自分との戦いでやっと悪魔に勝った私はジムで30分汗を流した後、こんなきれいなごほうびをもらいました。
It was around 7PM already but still had some traffic jam on Franklin Ave.
もうすでに夜の7時を回っていたのに、まだこんなに明るかった。サンセットの日差しがとてもきれいだったので、思わずぱちり。
I stopped by at Junee's house on the way going home since she lives so close from my house.
I just had to see her cats (Mr. Myaogi, and Cleo) how much they have grown. With Elephant cap, Mr. Myaogi doesn't complain much but he seems to think... "WTF is this?? I am not your entertainer!!" That's why he gets to be a bad boy! He is sooooo cute with it though.
ぷらぷら歩いて家へ帰る途中、友人のじゅんちゃんの家がすぐそこにあるので、ちょろっと立ち寄ってみました。みすたーみゃおぎとクレオの2匹も出迎えて(?)くれましたが、すぐにクレオはカウチの下に潜り込んで隠れちゃった。。。みゃおぎの方はこの象のかぶりもので、私の胸をきゅーーんとさせてくれます。
This is Cleo's hand... She didn't want to come out after all...
これ、くれおちゃんの手。手だけ出てるちゅーことは!?これでも、もてなしてくれてるつもり?かわいーから許しちゃおうか!
This is the last shot of the day. Before I went to Petco,
and Target to get some stuffs, I had to take this last moment of sunset. Someone told me this is "Magic" moment.
夜、ペットコとターゲットへ買い出しに行く前、アパートから出たらこんな夜景になる寸前のショットをゲットできました。あるカメラマンが教えてくれたのがこの「夜になる寸前」は「マジックモーメント」ということ。ブルー、オレンジ、イエロー、黒、、、色んな色が生えてみえてくる。
