How to fly without fear?


I'll answer this question when I am back from day trip after more than 5 hours in the air...

Not inside a submarine


Metro again

This is not work?!


Yes it is. This is a benchmarrk award party. We didn't win. As expected;-)

Different look, same city



In the metro


Strange colors

Beutiful leaves


Autumn, fall, koyo... Nature gets a red dress!

KamiSama paints today!


Everyday is art. Today I managed to get a picture to show you that beauty is everywhere, even homebound (From my mobile)

My work place, right side


Wonderful sky this morning...

Momiji, the "shin" generation

Of course, I could not take "karakara" for an answer. And still, I hope it will make it.

When the gardener came back, I asked him for 3 new cuttings. I also met our executive neighbor who happens to be a successful gardener. He mentioned "growth hormone" for cuttings. An excellent article from Le Monde, which I read by chance, also led me to trying one more time.

This time, it looks more like it has a "good health", don't you think?

Momiji, the "karakara" Japanese mapple

The smooth mapple tree from Japan! Remember my beautiful tree post? Well, the gardener subcontracted by the company offered me to "take cuttings" after I asked questions about the handsome tree.
The photo is my first attempt to turn the cutting into a little tree.
Now, it's all karakara (dried out). Yet my wishes are still alive : never let go until you're sure it's over.
I hope to write a post about this endeavour in a couple weeks from now and show how it revives. Wish E.T. was around! Do you remember the flower scene from 1982? This movie and Star Wars fuelled a generation's dreams and many more.

This is the place I worked the whole week


... Until 3:30 PM today. Then I'll have a long train trip plus tube then weekend will begin when I start walking in the streets to go back home.

One week ago in Paris


With direct access to this blog, I'll post more... So I decided to dig in my archives and publish some of my favorite pictures.
This guitar player (you can meet him in the streets of Paris) is a Fender fan (you can tell!). So am I. Couple months ago, I found a blog of a very talented young woman who is very knowledgeable about guitars : I found out Prince does not use one brand but several...
Someday, I'll buy a USB guitar and plug it in my MacBook. As PN would say "Phil No Manga" (You're dreaming your life like in a Manga). I'll get back to work now!

Prince concert in london


Wish I could go there! I don't own my life for I couldn't attend because of work!

And a special new surprise from chef


Ureshii!

Itadakimasu 'guten appetit' style


I really enjoy japanese food especially abroad after one full week of work. The japanese culture and people are like a second home to me...

New template and new start


New opportunities ahead with more to see!

No Star Wars set


Just a view from the company stairs

Ghost home?


Close to ghost train picture

Kami Sama is the Artist!



Sometimes life seems like a manga strip


While listening to Massive Attack... How could I ever forget 'Unfinished Sympathy' in Paris' Chinatown on Edgard's TV. MTV had it. As well as Prince. Still remember the day I rushed out to buy videotapes to record the 'Prince day' clips. Who will ever remember this in the future? Hope my soul is a suitcase for memories...

Ghost train


This movie was great with an unforgetable billboard!

Destroy to rebuild


Difficult to turn a bad sleep night and a business trip into a profitable day but sometimes it may work.

Where?


City

Red toilet


Strange temporary residence

Yatta! I found Alexa de Paris


Long time before I could find music from Prince on CD too... Listen to this andyour life will change. The Artist signed the soundtrack of my life : honto arigato!
