Friendship

Hello dearies♡

I am supposed to be a blogger as well as an Instagrammer and I haven't blogged in ages...

I wanted my account to be safe and secure so I kept on changing the login password then I totally forgot what it ended up being and I couldn't log in my account... for a very long time :(

Finally!

Anyways, today I met up with friends I haven't seen for years!

Sweet autumn Omotesando♡

It has been really cold in Tokyo!

It's not yet hitting one digit degrees Celcius but it's... like... really cold.

There is a wedding happening at this cafe every time I come around♡

They have a long line of people waiting to get in the cafe every weekend...

Hoping to get in there someday ;)

Bacon and egg pancakes♡♡

Best combination to have on pancakes!

My friend is Japanese though she seemed to be experiencing a huge cultural difference in Japan!

At least she was happy to finally have a pasta in Japan! ^ ^

And we can never get enough of yummy food... :)

This place is in Ura-Aoyama ( hidden corner in Aoyama area ), I always knew they have an awesome affogato and they do, really.

As I say so many times, affogato is my SECOND favorite food in this world♡

We had heaps of fun, it was absolutely awesome to catch up with old friends and spend time like no time has gone by.

She was totally going emotional and saying to us how she's enjoying her time so much like she hasn't in a long time. How sweet of her!

Night in Omotesando was interesting.

I found this ESCADA with a man watching the display, Very Very interesting.

There were new stores I haven't seen opened on the main avenue.

Saint Laurent and other famous stores. Busy Tokyo. Changing all the time.

I am a person who adores black and white.

Not only for photography, but to be in also.

I feel the timeless beauty in black and white.

World has been changing, but black shadow and white light, can not be changed.

I love it.

Aww I wonder if they had a celebration♡

Love seeing happy people.

I was quite sick since a few days ago but today has totally brought me back to a life.

I have to write about this...

I have started a blog on Wordpress only writing about my art and photography journal (this blog being my lifestyle blog).

http://annakirishima.wordpress.com

I have been painting pointillism since 12 and I have never thought once it will be appreciated by anybody.

Because it's to me just a bunch of dots forming an image, and I didn't think it would mean anything to them.

But recently, I have been told by a number of people that it is crazy and they would like to have it.

Like not just saying, they were meaning it.

I was in doubt at first but then I felt their honesty.

It has shocked me a lot, as I said, I have never thought it would hit anybody's heart in the first place.

Art is never accurate.

My dots can never be placed accurately.

There is no definition of accuracy in my art.

I paint with dots because I can't even draw a straight line if I try to.

But then, it requires a whole lot of patience.

And I had it.

That's the whole story.

It would tickle me if (hypothetically) someone said to me I was pretty.

It would make me feel shy if they said I was smart.

But if they appreciate what I make, they would mean the world to me.

It always has.

Now people are giving me the heaven and all I want to is keep creating.

It's just a whole bunch of thank you that I would like to deliver and I want to keep creating until the moment I am gone.

And my biggest wish is to have my creations living longer than I do.

I never really believe it when people say to me

"Oh you are an artist you are different, it's fiiiiine!"

I don't think I am any different to anybody, in fact, everybody is so different from each other that you can't define the standard of "being", right?

I am so right in my own way and I am being true to myself, and I am sure everybody is.

But it is the best, most blessing thing to have people accepting me for whatever hell or heaven that I am, and giving me the slighest respect.

It is just so touching that I had to write so much about this ahaha I need to keep this blog sheerly for my lifestyle diary hehe.

Anyway, it is a big part of me being an "Artist" and it is what defines what I am.

And I would like to stay connected with the beautiful welcoming world.

Thank you again and finally,

I shall be updating this blog regularly as well!

Many thanks,

Anna Kirishima

Aoyama Flower Market Tea House

Dear lovers♡

Terrible of me that I haven't updated my blog for centuries

My work got busy and I had to do some designs at work and...
didn't really get to use computer for personal use...

Finally got it back now♡

As I wrote on Instagram...

I am writing about this incredibly beautiful cafe in Aoyama Tokyo

Aoyama flower market -  Tea house

Flower shop... is the entrance

of the tea specialized cafe.

I have posted so many photos of this amazing cafe on my instagram and

many people liked the photos, like I do.

I will write a blog about this cafe♡

There is always a queue waiting to get in the cafe

( 60 minutes queue usually, like in Disney land! )

So I gave up on going in there though...

Last time when my friend and I dropped by

luckily we walked in without waiting for a minute!

Never look so different but

every time I go there the flowers and arrangements are different

small differences but keeps on entertaining us.

Beautiful arrangement

There are flowers everywhere in the cafe.

On the tables on the wall, on the blocks...

I've told you a couple times,

my dream is to run a flower and coffee cafe.

Visiting this place is really inspiring and

expanding my dream ideas...♡

Most photogenic cafe that I know in Tokyo.

For sure.

( So far. )

These tiny tiny roses definitely brightened our table♡

They are alive! not fake flowers.

Cutest roses I've seen.

Photographers... never stop their hands when their food arrives...♡

We spend a few hours before starting to eat our food....

Well not a few hours but we do...

Ahaha

We keep on arranging the table and taking photos

rearrange it and photograph again

again and again

until the food is cold

#Relatable

Beautiful cafe

The food was marvellous.

We were deciding between ice cream and chicken sandwich ( not sure why )

And we both somewhat chose chicken sandwich ( not sure why... )

And it was the best chicken sandwich I've had in ...

Japan.

( No, no exeggeration. Really. )

I shall drop by there when there are less people again

to have their rose ice cream♡

What a fantastical place really...

This cafe and their flowers-

never let us down♡

Love you!

As I wrote on Instagram

last sunday I went to this beautiful museum in Roppongi.

With my bestie♡

Totally my #weekendgoals♡

It was genuinely an inspiring place.

I have been doing nothing but work for quite a while so..

I haven't really been interacting with artworks at all.

It was a big wake up call for me.

So white and so simple, technologies everywhere.

There are a lot of museums in Roppongi but this place now is my favorite♡

This train thing was really romantic. Was like a part of a movie.

It really engages you.

You can have heaps of fun there.

It's a small museum so I don't know if you can spend a whole day in there but

you sure would love it♡

White, my favorite world♡

This cafe was next to the museum

we popped in because it looked cute but

they had beautiful food and coffee.

And smoothie.

I need to have the smoothie next time♡

Whenever we meet we usually meet at 11 or 12 at noon and

go home at 5 or 6 ish to go home and work..

Just that 5 hours is so neccessary to us. So relaxing..

Next weekend I will be doing something else but I can see her in July again~♡

Exciting♡

Cafe de la ville

Hello!

It's been a while since the last update...

It's been crazy busy at work last week and

As I wrote on Instagram

( I think I did.... not sure, I did right )

I have been kind of promoted at work and it's been really...

I don't know I have been well anyway busy with everything!

I will need to go through a job interview process all over again and I need a lot of luck!

This is my favorite cafe- Cafe de la ville.

There are two shops, one is this take away stand for French toast.

One is a cafe- a panini cafe.

Oh by the way this photo was regramed by this amazing instagrammer - @mas_fotokopi

And received a lot of likes♡

It's really flattering and I love it when someone likes my photos.

Please tag me when regramming my photos but I am absolutely happy for you to!

Anyway...

Cafe de la ville is a beautiful cafe with a lot of white round tables and straw chairs.

Black and grey sofas and the interior is just gorgeous.

I am learning a natural and office appropriate make up these days ahaha

My office is funky and they don't mind whatever I am wearing- but...

Yea I will have to have a job interview so ( again. )

And of course I went to the french toast store too♡

Strawberry french toast and a cappuccino.

It feels great, not really a place to chill for an hour but it was tasty♡

( As you can obviously see. )

I like both, if I want to eat a lot, definitely a panini store.

They have a different panini everyday so... fun too♡

Yummy!

By the way, I want to say

thank you so much to all the 700 followers.

It's been 2 months since I started instagramming and

there are people who watch my instagram to check out Japan and...

I am really flattered to be known as a Japanese Instagrammer.

( or the instagrammer in Japan )

I like to find beautiful things in Japan and I want to keep conveying so...

Hope I could be a good tour guide to you over instagram!

Providing Japan info for the time you visit Japan~♡

And make up, fashion, inspiration... lifestyle...

everything we need in our lives.

Well have a wonderful week we sure will enjoy it.

♡

Garage Lounge and Exhibit.

Hello good day!

Like...

Okay it's a personal thing but I have a crush on a guy.

And whenever I talk about him to my girl friends they are like

"Aren't you guys going out? You sound like a couple."

But I am sure we aren't.

Well it's just my crush though.

And the thing is...

I don't know if I am becoming a friend to him or he is still interested in me!

( #Girlproblems! )

He texted me today ( our workplaces are really close. )

and asked me out for lunch but I was like "Umm... I am at home."

and he was like Oh right today's Sunday, can I ask you out again?

I am like UGAWWW.

Can I be your girlfriend. ( Please? )

Anyways.. ( I am sorry about this raging. )

I am writing about this beautiful cafe in Kiyosumishirakawa.

Apparently they opened fairly recently.

It was raining though, I like wet roads.

The light reflections are beautiful!

This cafe seems to be run by a designer. ( Interior designer )

I like the exterior of it, yellow and kind of greyish. Very photogenic.

We are apple pie lovers. ( Unofficial. )

And writing this blog article is now resulting in me running out of the house, go on an apple pie seeking journey straight after publishing this article.

a

I live to eat. I eat to live. ( Kudos! )

That's what I am talking about. ( See! )

Now you don't even need to finish writing a blog article, you are only reading it,

you can go running out of the house go grab the best apple pie and come back then

continue reading my blog with the fabulous apple pie you have got right next to you.

*Drools uncontrollably*

I had a curry with a lot of beautiful decorations ( Mushroom and stuff ) on it.

Mushrooms are my favorite food.

Oh that reminded me that my crush and I had a debate before.

Me "Hey what vegetable do you like best?"

Him "Umm... I don't know, never really thought about it."

Me "I like mushrooms."

Him "Oh my god, how dare you call mushrooms "vegetables" they are mushrooms, not categorized as vegetables. If mushrooms were included then of course mushrooms are for the win."

I was like wow okay beautiful enthusiasm.

Anyways.

That cafe really turned out to be my favorite so I am visiting there when I am seeing my bestie ( the girl in a white knit sweater. )

Ahh it's Sunday and why have I no plan to go to a cafe...

I guess because this morning I saw a huge earthquake warning and got freaked out and started packing towels in my backpack and got tired. ( Silly me! teehee. )

I will, tomorrow.

Or day after at least.

Please look forward to more articles coming! I got so much to write about!
