Lemonade Diet

Three years ago, at this time of the year, I embarked on a cleansing journey for the first time in my life. It did wonders for my spirit and body. It has been more than a year since the last time I have done the Master Cleanse without cheating. Since I will be participating in some videos in the near future and having felt like a whale for quite some time, my vanity has finally taken over. I will be doing the lemonade diet (notice I did not say cleanse) for weight purposes only. It's not about the cleanse this time...it's about losing weight to look good...FAST. I don't have much time and this is the cop out method. Mori is against this idea after doing 2 lemonade diets within the past 3 years. He has vowed to never do it again. I am not like him. I need results now...and 10 days is the best I can find.

On July 5th, I will be happy and pretty again. Can't wait.

my new gig

I've always visited the store in SOHO everytime after I visit Marni because it's 2 doors down. The store was so expensive that the only thing I've ever bought were these beautiful one-off buttons by the cashier. But, things are different now! I finally get to adorn some of their beautiful hand crafted clothing. I will be part of the 45rpm team starting July 1st. Very exciting and a little nervous at the same time because of how strict the company is. They are Japanese with no pr behind their brand. They sell $800 jeans because each on is hand dyed with lots of TLC and every piece of clothing has a reason behind it. The name represents the uniqueness of each piece of clothing. A 45 rpm was a record that usually was a hit song. And they have taken that Hit song to having hit pieces every time. =)

I feel honored to be their walking ad. I love.

my New love 何潤東

Dear Kaneshiro Takeshi,
I'm making space in my heart for him.

Taiwanese Drama

I am so hooked on this Taiwanese drama called Summer's Desire. It's so raw and tragic. The love is like poison and it suffocates all the characters until they almost die. I think after I watch the whole thing, I'm going to translate it into a novel...hehehehe. It's the first time I've felt so strongly about a drama. The main girl's character is so intense and complicated that you don't know whether she loves these men or uses these men. I think she's cold blooded. woooo, so good. That will be my next hobby/project. It'll probably take years, but I keep thinking about it. If I don't translate it, I want someone else to.
When I was younger, I yearned for this kind of unrealistic, self-torturing love. I wanted "I can't live without you love." I wanted "I would die for you love." After going through a somewhat "that kind of love," I want all of that above without the aches and pains. Now, I realize it's extremely unhealthy, but oh-so romantic, in a very masochist way. So...I am excited by the idea of reading about it, immersing myself in these people's scary love lives...full of passion, lust, revenge, danger, and LOVE.
