i belong n Japan. no one understands how i long for tokyo. even though i love you guys, my friends dont even know. you dont feel what i feel. evrytime i think a/b tokyo, kyoto, or mt. fuji, my heart breaks b/c it's so far out of my grasp. i dont think that this country is where i was meant to be. it's like my soul was once in japan. i am a believer in past lives and i think i was once in japan. maybe i was a geisha, but i kno at one point i lived in japan. i never get enough of the japanese culture, or lifestyle. i dont think that this is a "phase" im going through like my dad does. i think this is my future. i hate when people laugh @ me when i talk a/b japan and when they tell me my music sucks because they cant understand it. it pisses me off that no freakin store in the u.s. has anything remotly influenced by the harajuku styles. L.A.M.B. is not harajuku, neither is Harajuku Lovers. It's gwen's interpretation of a style that needs no change. i dont like it. yea i could shop online and i do, but the stuff @ metamorphose is so freakin expensive. i kno there are other places like vivcore and stuff, but it's pretty expensive too. i do not trust ebay, unless its an actual store. the veiws of japan in the u.s. are completely skewed. people think that the japanese are all sexist, kamikazing, short people. ok some of them are short yes, but the entire culture is cahnging. i would love to go to a japanese high school for a week. i would learn more in a week there, in a completely different language, than i would here in a month. in the u.s. where i am, the bible belt, if u are anything besides christian you worship satan and demons in your soul. well ********' good! buddism and shinto are probably the two coolest religions in the world besides rastafarian. i could see myself being buddist and shinto. no problem. but there are no buddists or shinto people around me. so if one day you see a banner that says "Sayonnara zankoku no Amerika-gasshukoku" that will be the day i go to japan & live in peace with the high rises, subways, and harajuku girls.
by the way, i do not care if u are christian. it's cool w/ me, just dont tell me ur religion is the only way to get to salvation. if u live ur life how u want to, u will get to paradise.
