Here we go. The tickets are finally bought. I’ll be in Japan from April the 6th to April the 26th. This life-long held dream will become a reality. I’ve always been a Japan-devoted, for so many reasons… Fascination is an accurate word to describe this strange relationship, that I’ve cultivated since I was 7 years old. Happiness!
Tokyo’s calling
Wise word of the day
When I was 5 years old, my mom always told me
that happiness was the key to life.
Went I went to school, they asked me
what I wanted to be when I grew up.
I wrote down “happy”.
They told me I didn’t understand the assignment
and I told them
they didn’t understand life.
Yes. Thank you Kim from desiretoinspire.
One year
Yesterday was the one year anniversary of Ilovegraphics. I can remember the painful nights spent learning Wordpress, correcting glitches, trying to understand the basics of Html, and most of all, spending time trying to imagine what the future of this blog would be.
Truth is, I didn’t post as much as I hoped to — I guess that’s part of the doomed blogger’s life. Real life has catched me back, and forced me into many time consuming activities such as reading books, watching the sky, and talking to cats. One year ago, I was wondering if I had to quit my job as a junior art director, and try to find a new activity. One year ago, I wondered what I could do with my life, as it seemed to me that things weren’t that good. One year ago seems like a pretty long time ago. During this year, I’ve made new things, met new people and new friends, learn quite a few tricks, and most of all, bought a wonderful little house with my significant other. Seems like things have finally gotten better.
What now? I’ve got a whole brand new year ahead of me, coz I renewed the domain name for Ilovegraphics. And now that I’m settled down, I’ll sure try to post more. Until life gets me back again.
Happy birthday, blog, you really helped me a lot
