Sunglasses Is A Must

Although I just bought a new pair of Initium sunglasses, I am already DYING for these "Prototypes" by Yohji Yamamoto for Linda Farrow Gallery. My birthday is in 2 months and 18 days. I'm just sayin.

KAWS

I love this dude. I got this magazine when I was in Japan.

Sayonara

I've started to say goodbye to all of the amazing people I've been blessed to know in Japan. Yesterday I went to my Japanese family's house for the last time to have dinner and play with the young kids, MoJo. This was the cake they got to celebrate my farewell:
"Keito" is how you say my name in Japanese, and since my friend's sister doesn't know English she didn't know how to spell my name correctly. She got bitched at a little by my friend, Kuniko, but I like this MUCH better than regular old "Kate". And the part in Japanese says "Gambattene!" which means "Do your best" and is often used in situations that may be difficult for the person. Joy and sadness ensues.

It's A New Day

I've been overjoyed for the past two weeks because of one nation supporting one man. "Stop to cherish this moment. Stop to cherish this time."

It's A New Day - will.i.am

Yes We Can

I'm so proud to be an American right now, and I look forward to returning to the States to witness the change promised to that great nation by the new President-elect, Barack Obama!

I guess I've seen this video twenty times but I can't help but tear up laughing every time.
