I went on a little trip in the back country, thing I’ve been wanting to do since I settled myself in France, so I was very excited and happy to finally do it.
I went to a region full of old castles : small, big, huge… all kind of castles are there, from every period. Of [...]

A little change of pace
Posted in Talking, tagged green, layout, summer on August 19, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I thought the original layout (Thirteen) was a bit gloomy for summer… and since summer isn’t really summer here in Paris, I felt like having at least, a summer-like page, with bright colours and light ^__^ So here’s “Greenery” for a time
There, I’m happy~ It really doesn’t take much sometimes ;D
And you? are you having [...]

Did it again… haven’t posted a thing in ages, not that I didn’t intend to, I just didn’t sit in front of my eeepc and type whatever came to mind…
I’ve been using youtube a lot lately, and ended up listening to celebrities talking about their lives or their movies and in particular to Keira Knightley, [...]
Haven’t written a word in so long…

Or at least, that’s how it feels like!
Family coming over, busy life, and the hypnotizing power of Facebook’s applications made the days pass in a heartbeat! And every night the same routine rolling in my head : “it’s too late for tonight, I’ll do it another day”, and I never got near to drop by [...]
Victoria Frances’ art
Posted in Talking, Writing, photos on May 17, 2008 | 1 Comment »
I love taking pictures and buying pictures books…i don’t always buy them (they’re expensive! ^^) but I like strolling in bookshops and looking at some. Lately I’ve been looking at Victoria Frances’ books, and I thought a lot of her girls and atmosphere were matching the one I have in mine for my heroine, or [...]
Fallen for Her…

It never occurred to me before to share French lyrics and translations before…. usually, I only do this for japanese songs, but i really want to blog this particular French variety song.
Not many French compositions are to my liking but, there is one singer that I quite like : Pascal Obispo. His songs are composed [...]
お花見 au Parc de Sceaux

At last!
Spring has come and I’ve gone to the Park of the Sceaux Castle for my first hanami! I’ve been invited each year to do so, and never was free but this year, I set my mind to go see these famous cherry trees.
I wasn’t disappointed : they were numerous, a whole “bosquet” to [...]

The coffee brand “Carte Noire” released a month ago its new line of coffee called “Splendide“, and the advertisement going with it decorates the walls of the Parisian subway now, making heads turn around.
Splendid Amaïta, by Carte Noire
“Refined and Sensual“
The brand has been using the slogan “a coffee named desire” for some years now, [...]

Une fois encore, la saison des fleuraisons arrive
Renouvelant le cercle des rencontres et séparations
Cette année encore, le Printemps viendra….

また桜の季節が来る
出会いと別れの繰り返し
今年も又、春が来る

The cherry blossom’s season is coming back.
The circle of meetings and separations along.
This year too, Spring will come…

This is one of my favourite quotes from マリア様がみてる (the Virgin Mary is watching us). For better or for [...]
Tainaka Sachi
Posted in Talking, tagged lyrics, music, PV on April 21, 2008 | 4 Comments »
I was writing about Tainaka Sachi’s song previously, “saikou no kataomoi“. I just watched a live version on youtube and I must say I’m quite impressed! Her singing is even better, and with only her piano and the accompanying guitar, we can appreciate her voice even more. I felt she sang it even stronger and [...]
