Nihon!

Busy looking  through old photos and boxes when I found some lovely memorabilia from my trip to japan in 2005 .... it seams like such a long time ago now.

I adored it, I am lucky enough to of been able to study Japanese at GCSE and so know a lot about the culture and language and its just amazing. I really do think highly of the japanese, in particular the scientists in nanotechnology and other areas.

The culture is very different from here and one must say that I do prefer it there. Whilst there I got to see some amazing things, both new and old, traditional parts of Japan including an Okiya where we saw traditional and very real Geisha's performing... they are so beautiful.

I do so miss all my friends over there, And thankfully I can say that I will be returning there very very soon ^^

Nihon ni ikimashou!

Here are some photos from when we were there... sadly I have lost weight since then (illness and stress mostly but I am putting weight back on, also I was 16 haha)

me in the nightmare t-shirt with my best friend at the time Chris

This is Minami and Yuko ^^

This is the Back of my Kimono, Yep I brought myself a real Traditional Japanese Kimono from a geisha market, with the obi of course. I also brought geta, a parasol and dancing fans

We went to bepu bay, and thus the hot springs named 'Bloody hell'

They have black swans ^^ taihen Kirei desu ne!

We saw so much more than I have named and met loads of people. I miss my EGL friends the most :( see you very soon lovelies!

Busy time

There is a lot going on at the moment and not much in the way of posts, for this I apologise. Allow me to remedy some of the inquisitiveness.

I am making products for my upcoming stall, this takes a lot of my time and effort couple that we my pets and well there you go really.... leaves very little room for much else. This is the price you pay for owning horses.

However on top of these things I also have my Burlesque, I'm performing regularly and creating new acts at the moment which - albeit very exciting - takes a lot of energy and thought. Furthermore my better half has just brought a house so I'm helping where I can to get things ready and stop him stressing so much. Quite a feat to be honest.

Congratulations to him for passing his driving test though... now we just have to get his mini roadworthy.

Much rushing around as you can see so please excuse the lack of posts it will be remedied as soon as everything reaches a proficient calm again.
