Spring,2007

Guys,I have news!It is my great pleasure to announce that,I got proposed!!Since my fiance and I were both in the MC, I wanted my aiesec friends to know.The wedding and reception are taking place next spring.

NANA

NANA is a 25million copy selling comic series in Japan. This summer the movie "NANA" was made and it's going to be shown in other asian countries:HONG KONG, Taiwan,Indonesia,Malaysia and Singapor!! Recently Asian Press Conference was held in HK, and that happened to be the first international press conference ever held for a Japanese film. I'm happy that many asian people support our culture and I really recommend NANA especially to girls, it inholds what any girl would dream of.

The ONE Campaign

The impact of TV and TVstars are huge among Japanese.Almost any book that's introduced in a TV show would sell a million just because it was on TV! I hate how Japanese never quest the quality of information and tend not to give a good thought of what they do. Only sometimes it works for the good, and one might be a great concern towards the One Campaign. Although this owes greatly to the famous singers and athletes,and only very few really understand the what's really a problem here...it's same in the US and everywhere else,afterall.So let's just think and appreciate how many people have joined and what change -tough it might be small- it has made to this world.

WAFA

WAFA is having it's 8th World Flower Show in Japan this year.It's one of the most prestigious competition for flower designers, known as the Olympics of flower design.
I went to see the show since my mom won the honor to exhibit her work of art in the NFD(national) branch exhibition.
The show classes were divided into 21 divisions and the size of arrangements varied from large ones what might be seen in 5 star hotel grand lobby to very detailed ones you needed a pair of tweezers to arrange.The Honorary International Exhibition part was like Global Village with all the different countries expressing themselves by using unique flowers and colors of their culture.

AI visit

Too bad the photo isn't so clear but Liv was here on AI visit.I had a chance to have dinner with her just before she left for Malaysia.She mentioned many names I die to see again I wonder how they are, especially non AP people.


Liv and Aki on her last night in Tokyo 
Next time you've got to come on personal visit so that we can show you around, Liv

Reminiscence

Look what I found in modern day Tokyo...If I had a little more courage I might have hopped on to get a photo in it. I wonder who actually owns this thing.


Back to the future? 

Welcome visitor!

Emperor's Palace 

The good thing about aiesec is that so many people are bonded under the name of this organization and we are open to meet new people.I met Sandeep through one of my aiesec friends and you can see what fun we'd had.
