WMK

Momo is a great jogger

Momo has been jogging around night tokyo.

quietly and constantly. i can only hear my breath with a certain rythm.

it's purpose was to be cuter and approach him again.but actually i just enjoy it.i realized that it is good for clear up your heart and mind.breathing, tapping, looking forward and concentrating. 

i think he is not gonna come back but i can still keep a room in my heart for him when he came back. I think he is not gonna come back but I think I can still keep jogging.

not for my beauty but for something else...

tonight was a clear sky.

Waka, my girl

She is sitting next to me working on her something. I donno what's going on her screen..I am being lazy sitting next to her. sometimes glance at her with the left side of my eyes. She told me I was cute today. I guess it means my hair dying thingy turned good. That's good. Because I want to be cute for hopefully getting back something important. I am hungry, i think i should start distracting her because i am hungry...

ciao ciao

You gave me hard time so many times...but still love you, Italy.

Hmmm...I have been in Italy exact for 3 month now.
How many times I wrote my blog..? 4 or 5 times I guess;p
This isn't that bad for me. 5 times..great job,momo.

Well...this 3 months was like a storm. I've never felt anything stable since I got here.
Seriously, I cries a lot while I was here for nothing. I guess it was for something but even I do not know.I feel I have been in a huge confusion,I am really ready to go back to Japan. This is sad but this is true. Too much things have been going on and I am confused. I need even a one thing that I can feel stable.
I started to think "who I am" since middle of March because I was not sure. Even I like Rome very much, talk to people, know some Italian people, my existence is very very temporary here. I really needed to know who I am. I felt that nobody is here and nobody knows me. I wanted to find something/someone who knows me and remember me that I,Momo had been here.
I would like to leave something here as the mark that I was here during spring 2009 as la studentessa, for coming back here in another time. I have been confused and everything but I still do like this country. I just like it.
I have hard time here because one is language, I guess. I really do not know Italian, so even if I want to communicate with people, it is very very limited. I really cannot communicate with them..the another thing is time(tempo) because it is only 3 months, so it is very hard to find somebody and become good friends. As I told you, everything is temporary here.
That's why I think I want to come back here another time as different way because this country is too nice to leave.
As I feel comfortable for using English, I want to be like that in Italian,too. I want to study more.
I also want to know how I should manage my feeling/emothing,etc because it is important to be not negative and to keep your self chill. I dont know how to explain but I need to learn it a lot. Because I just get messed up and depressed sometimes.
Italy, especially my home area Roma..I learned a lot about so many different things. I still have another month here, so I want to enjoy every moment as much as I can. You know I am in Roma, and this is fuckin' awesome stuff! I am in Roma in real..I still cannot believe it...;p

MOMO X ITALIAN MUSIC

Today I got a message from an italian singer in a band called "ANIME RIBELLI".
I met them on February 6th at the Art Cafe (the arte Cafe). The bar(live concert bar-ish place) was very crowded. Literary packed..
We went there because me and some of my friends were looking for one club around that area, and walking around.
When I got inside of the bar, there were only Italian people, non american, they were all happy and so excited. I wondered why and figured out that they were so excited at the band! Their music was awesome..I was getting closer and closer to the most excited place without noticing. It was very nice feeling because people were dancing, jumping, nodding...etc along their music.
They seem that they are big fans of the band, so they sang their songs together.
I really wanted to know the band's name and music, so I went over to the bartender and ask that by using this phrase and pointing at the band again and again...
"Tu come ti chiami?"(What is your name??)
As I told you before, my Italian is very very limited but I do not have time to check words by my electric dictionary and say something correctly(neerrddd!). The moment is the moment. I use full of gestures and gathered all italian words I know and put them together.That's it!
He was very kind and wrote it down for me on the paper for glasses(I forgot how it's called,ha). At that time I was really into their songs because I loved it!!! I took their photos,etc and really enjoyed the atomosphere with italian people! I randomly started to talk to people around me about the band, and I found a lady who can speak little English. She was very nice. She told me about them a lot. I wanted to buy their CD but she told me they do not sell any of them..:(
After their live concert, I was so contained by their awesome music..then I decided to talk to them.ha (btw, i was not drunk at all...;)) I came over to them and asked if I can take their photo. "Scuzi,Poso photo all together?"(Excuse me, can I photo all together?) They were very friendly, so they were posing for me. It was very great!
Then I had a chance to talk to them after that, and we introduced each other,etc..They told me that they would love to come to Japan and have concerts..
So I got a message from him today;) We exchanged our e-mail address each other, so I can help them when they come to Japan;) It is very nice and fun to meet Italian people out of school because I dont know just because.. I just love it!!
They told me that they have a concert on 25th, Feb, so I would love to go there and listen to their great songs again!yay

Why not?

I think there is no difference between fart and burp. Yea,definitely.
When you burped, you just say"excuse me;p". That's it. But when you fart...?
People start to stare you with how can I say, evil eyes? cold eyes?ha
Anyway, it's "not great". Why can't we just say"excuse me!" for this case?
Because of its smell? Yea, I guess. It is because maybe it is not ACCEPTABLE for people(because they have to endure until the stink goes away), so people stare at you.
But I would love to try this great phrase"excuse me! I just farted;p" someday soon.
Yea, this is very random momo thoughts for tonight. I told one of my roomies about this story, she is like "Yea, whatever makes you happy.."ha
Buona Notte!

Momo Saw The Moment!

As famous as Italian pizza, Italian dudes are very famous about their creepiness.
On the way back to home, some american girls from Rome program got/joined on the train. Right after that all of Italian guys sitting in front of me(3 dudes) made an action. First, they turned their body toward the girls "naturally" and stared.lol
I do not know why but Italian people like to STARE. Even if they are driving/ riding on a motercycle, they don't care. Just stare others. I highly recommend them to look their forward at least when they are driving.
(Actually I've seen many car accidents so far since I got here, just a month)
Oh well, but the dudes action made me laugh so hard on the train(actually only in my mind), but I guess it is a part of their characteristics.
..I guess.
Anyway, today I was working on my project at my tiny studio after school. Today's material was stak and concrete. I've never experienced them but actually they are so much fun;) I almost started to think that I can work as under construction worker during summer. I am still on progress and try combinations with different materials.
If you have any suggestion for mixture material, please tell me/write on my comment area.

p.s. one of the pictures are from some cool artist's instaration. I left my stuff(memo for going to a museum) instead of taking his item. This was very cool.

Ooops..Art Is Dangerous, I guess

ciao!
Today I did some experiments for one of my studio classes.
It is still untitled but okay, it is hmm.."Take Me With You;)". Yea. There are 3 yean balls on a little stage and the end of each balls are attached to the stage, so when all balls are taken by somebody, I can get the view that all colorful strings are all over the building starting from the little stage.I did this because I wanted to try this in public because I am very interested in interactive design/art.
So I set up the stage and everything was totally ready. I was just waiting for somebody will take it.
So I was observing, and finally some art students started to play with it. I was like "YES!"
After a while, they carried one of the balls to the upstairs, and the happening was shortly done.
BUT right after that, one of professors came over and she tripped..!
She hit her head on the corner of wall and hit her back to the stairs behind her..
I was,of course, under observation, so i was like "..shit.OMG...".Then student office lady came over to me and she said"No more, remove this right now!". Yea, definitely..I was so scared actually.
But I did this experiment because I talked to Dean about this and of course its dangers before and got an official permission.
So I call today's painful happening,"Accident". That's it. I feel SO bad to the prof. but I couldnt do anything for it unless I didnt do the experiment.
Yea,, Art is sometimes dangerous. So you guys, whenever you see art pieces, just WATCH OUT.
Plz cross your fingers for me;p
ciao!

Lazy Momo is Over. This is the Kick-Off.

I know this is kinda too late to start my blog because almost one month has passed since I had the best pizza ever in my life.
Yea, I was "busy". Actually in Roma(I prefer this way more than "Rome"), there are literary tons of things which I want to see/ experience. I feel I haven't completed even 7%.
I do not know if this is because this is the first time for me to study abroad but I am amazed everything, everyday for everything.
When I left my home country, Japan, my Italian skill was literary "zero". The only word I knew was "ciao". But I did not worry about it at all because I knew if I was in a situation that I have to use the language, my language skill is gonna be way better by just being there.
I think language is very very important because it is the tool for you to help/know something new, to communicate with new people. I learned about it since I entered TUJ. For me, the difference of race or nationality is nothing but very fun to know/understand.
Now I can express my detailed feeling/emotion,etc in English as well as Japanese. It took me to be like this actually 9 years(3 years are from TUJ). It was very long way and also very hard but I am very very happy and thank that I have enough English skill now.
I guess that's why I do not have any hesitation for using my poor Italian.
I am in Roma and this is a great opportunity. As I wrote before, I would love to meet new people, try new things and do everything as time allows me. So why do I have to kill my unknown opportunities by that little hesitation. If you are brave enough to say"ciao!" to people, the wonderful opportunity is yours! Open doors to new world by yourself.

People are basically very sweet but of course it is not always like that.
I sometimes become so sad but today is today, and tomorrow is tomorrow.
What made me very stressful and depressed was double punches that I can I use only English and Italian here. Here is basically no Japanese language situation. Really. If I wanted to use Japanese too much and suddenly yelled on the middle of street, I would be arrested and I would not have any friends to hang out, I guess. But I really missed Japanese.
I was very nervous about the both language for the first/second week since I got Roma, so one day I started to cry shaking my entire body in class. My body was too stressed and this situation was too much for me. Now English is more comfortable to use as well as Italian and I really enjoy it and this situation. But I realized how Japanese background affects me and my thought,etc.

This is another great thing I've realized so far that I started to think about my nationality. I can respect Japanese culture,etc now comparing to American and Italian cultures day by day.
To study abroad in Italy makes me think a lot and change a lot. This is real communication with people in foreign country, not "international atmosphere" in TUJ, so everything does not go on like I expect or want. But this is very great unexpectations. I would love to take them!
I would like to absorb everything. I would like to study everything.
I thank very much to everybody especially my family who helped me to come to Italy and give this great opportunities.
I thank my friends from Japan because their existence taught me how I love and miss Japan.
I thank my best friends from the U.S because what they have taught me about their culture,etc help me a lot to communicate to other students from America.
I thank my new friends here because they are a part of my great memory in Roma, and I can say because of you guys I can have fun time and I can think I am happy here.
I am pretty sure that I am one of the very happiest person ever in Japan.
Thanks guys!

Ok, now I try not to be too lazy about this blog;p
