It’s already almost end of August. Time passes quickly.
ほぼほぼ、八月も終わる。時の過ぎ去るのは早い。
I didn’t like school, so I hesitated to go to high school.
私は学校が嫌いだったので、高校へ進学するのもためらいました。
However, all the advanced art college teachers were lovely and I loved them.
でも、進んだ美術の短大の先生方は素敵な方ばかりで、大好きでした。
After graduating, I went to drink with them almost every week and continued the class.
卒業してからは、彼らとほぼ毎週飲みに行ったりして、授業の続きをやってました。
But basically, I like the time alone. Let the mind play alone.
しかし、基本、私は一人でいる時間が好きです。一人で、心を遊ばせるのです。
It’s good to listen to Koizumi in the house when you get bearish.
時々、弱気になると聴くと良いのが、Koizumi in the house です。
You can feel nasty. 意地悪な気持ちにもなれます。
I always want to be a kind person, but there are times when I can’t be kind, and at that time my heart freezes. My work, Icy Hearts, is my self-portrait when I am cold.
いつも、優しい人でいたいけど、優しくなれない時もあって、そんな時は、私の心は冷たく固まります。私の作品、アイシーハーツは、そんな、冷たい時の私の自画像です。
Great to be in good company and yet find some ‘me’ time, & I can see why you enjoy listening (and dancing?) to Kyon Kyon- with her 80’s vibe.
I so admire your hauntingly beautiful icy hearts as much as your bold firery, Xavier ones, as both reflect our capacity to find it in our heart to love -of all the passions it is the strongest and most enduring.

Dear Pamela,
Kyon Kyon is amazing.
She is not singing now but she is an actor. Also, she publishes her essays which I love to read.
One of her comments; if you love a person but you don’t necessarily give him everything. You can share what you have.
