February 21st - ONE IN A MILLION

Today, Martika and I stood up at 6 o'clock. Too early, really, but we just had to be sure. We took the Odakyu line to Shinjuku. I felt really bad, but I couldn't go with her to the airport. It would cost me too much, one way is already expensive, let alone a round trip! So I said goodbye to Martika and the bus drove away.. I'm alone again, but I have to make it work.. Again!

So, I went home and made myself ready for tea practice at Yukiko-san's house. I didn't do tea for almost a week now, and I missed it! I was happy to be back again, really, it was great! I am doing pretty well and I hope I am able to perform in Asakusa at the end of March.. But, I need a lot of practice!

After tea, I went home to clean up my room. It was such a mess, living alone is difficult in a small space like this, but living together is just too much for this room. But now everything is neat and clean again, so no worries!

In the evening, I had a dinnerparty at Mitsui-san's house. Yukiko-san and I took the subway to her house, but we had to kill some time because we were too early. Mitsui-san's appartment was dropdead gorgeous. I mean, the space itself was OK, but the view was just breathtaking. I would simply love to live like that. I will, in fact, someday =).

After a while, the other guest arrived. A very important BVLGRI-person from Switzerland. He has been living heer a while now, and he loves it. He was so friendly but I had a quite agressive discussion with him. Which is great, because I miss that sometimes. He told me I was 'One in a million', and that made me feel very proud and special. I had a great evening, I simply loved it! Tomorrow, I will go to the gym. In the evening, I will have another fancy dinner party, but this time with more people.
