The Autumn Song

I wore my blazer out today for the first time, signing that fall is finally approaching Tokyo after an incredibly hot summer.
東京ではやっと気温が下がり、私は今期初めて、ブレザーを下ろしました。ようやく秋が訪れそうですね。

It's almost October I know, but summer brought some great experiences and memories (an internship, hearing Yohji Yamamoto speak in person (!), meeting totally unexpected and incredible people...) so I'm a little sad that the seasons are really starting to change.
もう10月だけど、夏の終わりはやっぱり寂しい。特に今年の夏は充実していたからこそ、そう思うのかな。

A piece of my summer, girls preparing for the Yosakoi (a traditional Japanese Dance) Festival in Omotesando

I've been unable to post regularly for quite a while now and I'm afraid this will continue through the rest of the year. I was just looking at my favorite blogs and realized how much I miss blogging and how there's lots of things I want to post and share. But right now there is so much on plate, so many things I have to do before blogging. So this is a temporary farewell from blogging, until I get through what would probably be one roller coaster of a ride of the last three months of 2010. Hopefully I'll be able to look at your blogs every once in a while, but till then, see you guys in 2011!

最近はなかなか、ブログの記事を書く時間がなくて...時間は自分で作るもの、なんて本当に出来ればいいけど、夏休み以上に忙しくなりそうな今年の秋、いったんブログを離れようと思います。書きたいこと、載せたいことはいっぱいあるけど、きりがないのでここで一つ区切りをつけます。これからJFWも始まるので尚更残念だけど、次までには復帰したいな。

I will be sad to not see any posts from you for a while but do what you need to do! I'm sure all your readers (including myself) will be awaiting your return!

Missed you too, but it's true, sometimes it's difficult to combine blogging and 'real life'.

Winnie said...

I adore the photo of the sunset, absolutely gorgeous. Also, take your time with blogging, real life definitely gets in the way and so much more important to the blog!

re: Come to London one day, I'm sure you would love it!
