So I wanna apologize for being slow and not very active in my journal. (Neither this one or airah4 , which is a bit of rarity for me!!! ><) But it's exam week at my school here in Japan, and in addition, I have just started taking online classes back at my home university, so things sure are tough! But I promise I'm "ganbarimasu-ing"! ^_<

Anyway, I think some of you might remember, but last semester, Alex and I happened upon two young fashion designers in the Shinagawa Ito Yokado, who asked us to model for them and their clothes line!! (WHICH BY THE WAY....THEY JUST GOT BOUGHT BY ISETAN!!! THIS IS GREAT NEWS FOR THEM!!!! ^0^/ Congrats, Gondo-san and Saiki-san!!!!)

So this week they invited us to the International Fashion Show (the JFW-IFF) being held at the Tokyo Big Sight, and though it was a three-day event, we only just went today! It turns out that had we gone on Wednesday, when the event was being held, we would have been present the same time as Koji Seto, who was also attending the event for his new movie, Runway Beat! But we were sure we ran into a few celebs there anyway...the clothes were ridiculously gorgeous, and I don't think any of the people present were aware that Alex and I are really just small-town girls with not nearly enough money to pay for their awesome stuff.....We were very grateful (and lucky) to be there, but it felt nice to be treated like a celebrity, hahaha! Because we were two of the only gaijin there (especially twin gaijin) and had dressed especially nice for the event, we got a lot of pleasant encounters, and another kind designer has asked us to keep in touch, as he would like to ask us to model his line as well. His name's Takumi, so we've decided to call him Takumi-kun, hahaha. His style seems quite bohemian, and astounding, really original and fresh, and he's studied in Europe too, so we really commend him!

What a great day!

Here's the Tokyo Big Sight....alarming, right?




And we are also planning to attend Nishijima Takahiro's talk show in a few days if we can manage it!!! EXCITING!!! Glad to have something to look forward to after all this schoolwork is finally done!

And now before I go off to do the piles of schoolwork I have (T___T), I'll leave you with a Japanese gameshow that pawns life. (And made me LMAO in real life while I was having a tough day!! Enjoy!)

The best acts are 16:00 into the video, and then 17:00 in the video. I love those guys (and girls). XD
