My confidence and happiness can compete with the weather's unpredictability, sometimes. A fine perfect day can easily turnaround, and I try and try to grasp that former feeling of joy or even apathy just so not to go anywhere near its opposite end. Some things kept on having a hold on you, noh? I hate it, and I always pray and pray that I become consistent independent and whole. Anyway, wearing almost all from-Japan pieces (except shoes) yesterday for 2 events. Even my plastic umbrella is a souvenir from the kind hostel owner in Kyoto, handed to us when Ate and I left the good old lady's place on a rainy Sunday. It's nice to have tangible and meaningful souvenirs from places you've been to, noh? Not necessarily bought or expensive. I remember also owning a 10 dollar classic black umbrella from New York, because it was raining when we got there. Maybe I should start an umbrella collection kaya? Haha.
