24th April 2011

OMG

It is already Weekend. Sunday. Easter.
Seriously I need to finish my FMP very soon.
I still need to prepare for the portfolio, presentation, and tidy up my room and sort everything to bring some stuff to Japan.

But today I forgot everything about it and enjoyed the BBQ--- :)
Its such a nice day and its Easter holiday after all!
Today was such a nice day except for the annoying rail services.
I could eat too much meat, it was fun, it was yammyyy

Oh, and then 5 days left
Ooops

Sleepy...

Today's walk was early in the morning.
Explored to the area I've never been to, and it took already 1 and half hour when I realised.

My project went well too, but my hand is numb and doesn't move anymore
because I drew tooooo much....

exhausted...

rhythm

the talk
21st April 2011

Sooo hot today

This strong sunlight will burn me into black... need sun block...
I'm glad that I can wake up early these days. I finally got the good rhythm in a day.

But I will be free from the work at library until Tuesday.
I will be able to spend much more time on FMP tho.

It is becoming fun to do! good :))
And finally I can see the meaning of why I am doing this for the FMP,
after the long struggling period.
I think I'd better to use hand and work quick in short time to concentrate rather than thinking thinking and thinking.

So boiling today!
I shoulddefinitely wear T shirt from the morning tomorrow...

Time pass so quickly these days.
But at least I am using time effectively and productive.

Bakery

catlike
18th April 2011

Library's reception was changing a bit its layout.
Not all of the student hasnt been back to their home just because it is Easter break,
like me.
Need work rather than go back an being relaxed...

Today I went to the other path.
Dandelions' yellow were bright.







And today I found nice bakery! It has been almost 3 years since I started to live in Epsom by the way...
Not only these, they had quite a lot of different things, wanna try it again, it was soo nice :)

Forest of Nausicaa

deal
17th April 2011

Today was warm (almost hot) again.
But I was surprised when I found these white stuff were on the earth.
Seems like it is dandelion's seeds, but still looks like snow fallen on to the ground.
This reminded me the scene of the film Nausicaa.

choice
16th April 2011

I'm not on the right track yet.
I was thinking going London all day long but gave up and forced myself to generate ideas and work hard for FMP.
The time I finally got to London was around 5.

I recently found the nice magazine, and I went to the shop that has been featured in the magazine,
in covent garden.
They had a lot of really nice design of plastic-made accessaries,
and I never knew that these products by this brand can be found in Tokyo as well..

Had massive dinner of Korean food,
and went to Camden to see Friend's Friend's band.





And what I found in the toilet at waterloo....
Hatsune miku...LOL
And see the title..."Hatsune Miku and the synthetic pop phenomenon"
Finally European ppl can read about Hatsune Miku on magazine too...
Crazy Japanese culture...

Surgery and Invitation

Invitation
15th April 2011

Today I went to the design studio in Angel, because they offered us to show their studio around and
do a small surgery on our portfolio from the point of professional designer.
6persons each from 2nd and 3rd year.

This was the third time that I visit this studio.
After the short tour around the studio, we went to the gathering room and looked thorough
each third years' portfolio and got advices.

How to Layout, the ideal size and content of the picture to print out, and the description.
My turn was the last but she said my layout, description, and pictures are perfect and
no need to change anything :) yay

Today was such a good day, and kind of made me want to work much harder on FMP...?

And I got really really good news after I got back home!!!
Exciting!!!

portfolio

urge
14th April 2011

Today's library was flooded with tons of books which returned by
the second year who handed in essay today...
Thanks to that, I was working quite long time today.

By the way I manage to wake up today finally.

And made portfolio for tomorrow.
This one is not the version I printed out today but published on online.

Open publication - Free publishing - More art book

Not confident

miracle
13th April 2011

Went London after the work
Korean dinner, Sundubu Jigae, was soooo nice
Ticket was sold out so just wandered around Night London.
Thanks to that, I could buy Natto from Japanese food shop.

And then went to Cafe Concerto in Piccadilly Circus.
The inside was cute, and their tarts are so good too.
I felt we talked a lot.
I just realised today that I have so many anxieties for everything, not only FMP,
but also the future after I go back.
As I speak out my situation and feeling, I found out I'm so stressful about being third year and
feeling the pressure for doing FMP as well the way tutor expect me to do.
But I think I could tidy up my mind a bit after I speak, thank you



By the way, I am the only one working for the library atm because other two went back home for Easter Holiday already,
which means I can work everyday this week and next week.


And, just found a MV, wanna try these costume on and shoot in London...

Decision

namida
11th April 2011

Just started the challenge to live healthy today..
Trying to have healthy meal, some exercise everyday, and proper daily life without being lazy!

Today...after I had lunch, went to library to work, and went for a walk about an hour,
did a foodshoping, and going to work on the portfolio tonight to prepare for the tutorial tomorrow,
and...cleaning up the kitchen.

Ok... I will keep up on the good rhythm everyday and just enjoy every single day...
Because the worst time in here has gone... from now... the summer is coming :)

It was such a nice day, except the NG food.

10th April 2011

Today was a good day again, and enjoyed the sunshine in the Hyde park, London.
So many people were relaxed on the grass, looks comfortable.

The good weather made us feel cheerful too.
And I could call my friend again.
I really really wish that you can manage to come here..!!
Then it can be one of the exciting plan that I can wait for until the graduation.





Today, I was surprised because we were betrayed by our trustful shop, M&S.
Their food is usually very good but it was not today.
Add to that, I had such a strange Pub meal when we went for the drink evening.
I believe it was meant to be a caesar salad, but the thing served in front of me was just...
'Plateful grass with powder cheese and pieces of fried bread'.
I came across the un-tasty British food, it has been a while...

call

the g.c.d.
9th April 2011

Had an international call with Shuri.
How annoying the time difference between Japan! It would be much easier for both of us
to call if there much less time difference than 8-9 hours.



We went to the cafe and park.
British ppl usually go out immediately and play with ball when it is a nice day.
So we did it as well, having a beer and snacks -_-

It was nice but the temperature fell dramatically after the sun goes down! collllddd

Things to do

7th April 2011

Tutorial in the morning.
Today's one might be the last tutorial that I can have before the hand-in.
So I worked until morning to prepare the things to show and discuss,
because I didn't do it last night.

Thanks to that, I could talk a lot about my thought,
and kind of manage to what I should do,
at least got understanding much than before.


These days, I feel like I should present my illustration skills and book binding skills more to the public,
like I used to do before.
'It wouldn't help me to get the job straight away' or
'There's no meaning of doing it because I am going back'.
These can't be the reason why I am not doing it.
I think I realised it was not the point.

summer

cider
6th April 2011

This week I feel like I'm keep working in the library.
And started to wear high-heels again, which I used to wear quite often.
So I am trying to get the muscle back by exercising my legs with wearing them.

And went to Kingston for no reason, just travelled to there by bus.
These day it's already like the summer has come..!
We could stay long without coat or jacket even after the sun's gone.

Love these days...

poison

5th April 2011

Went to London, from afternoon.
And visit the travel bookshop in covent garden for my FMP research.
We went to the gig of my flatmate's friend, but because of the poison from
the chips in Burgrrkinggg, we were both sick lol

meeting

clean
4th April 2011

Probably today was the last day that all the classmate assembled in one room,
untill the end of the term.

Guess we need to work hard and manage by ourselves until we hand in our work.
Except getting advices from tutors...and I missed to sign-up for the tutorial with the one I wanted to talked to!
Everyone was so fast...

well, I can talk to other tutor though,

but I have no energy or motivation to work hard on my uni's work... :(
