メルマガが送られてきていたけど・・・まさかまさか!!
French Connectionが来春、日本から完全撤退しちゃうんだって!!
えぇ~!!!!!!!そんなー。
確かに今日本では、Fast Fashionと名前を付けてForever 21、H&M、ZARAがちやほやされているけど・・・。
かなり寂しいなぁー。私の持っているフォーマル洋服は(My categoryです!!きっとみんなにはカジュアルじゃん!って言われそう・・・)、9割がFrench Connection。またまた通販での買い物が増えそうですなぁ~。とほほ。

Beverly Hills, 90210

年末番組にありがちですが、Super! Drama TVチャンネルで"Beverly Hills, 90210"が全話放送されているんです。
何度も見ているから、ストーリーしっかり話せるくらい暗記しているんですが。。。新たなる発見がっ!!
なんとなんと、Season 1のEpisode 18 "April is the Cruelest Month"に"Friends"のChandler Bingが、あっ、ちがったそれは役名(笑)Matthew PerryがRoger役で出演していたんですよぉ~。なんとなんと、23才の時に高校生役。まっ、Beverly Hills のメンバーは、ほとんがover 20だったけどね。

Chandler見つけて、ちょっと興奮(爆)。だって、あまりにChandlerとRogerのイメージが違いすぎるんだもん。"Friends"の後は、結構あちらこちらの映画&TVに出演しているから、ビックリしないんだけどね。
ストーリーは・・・
Brandonは、West Beverly Highのスター・テニスプレイヤーRogerを取材することになった。Brandonが取材をしていくうちに、将来有望のはずのRogerに影があることを発見。
その頃、Brenda、Kelly達のもとにSATスコアが戻ってくる。Donnaは、SATスコアが低すぎたため自信を失ってしまう・・・(Donnaには学習障害があることが判明。)

Typical year's end TV programs, "Beverly Hills, 90210" has been gone every parts back to back on Super! Drama TV.
I know single stories because I saw too many times. However, I gained a new understanding of "Beverly Hills, 90210".
Matthew Perry who played Chadler Bing in "Friends" appeared in 1st season, episode 18 "April is the Cruelest Month". He played Roger Azarian. You know what he was 23, but he acted a high school student. ha, ha. I knew this story, but by today I didn't know that that man was Matthew Perry! WOW.
The story is...
As Brandon interviews Roger, the school's tennis star, he discovers that Roger's golden-boy appearance hides deeper demons. When the gang gets their SAT scores back, Donna becomes deflated by her low SAT score, which reveals her learning disability.
Check it out!

Ouch!
I've been looked up at the Gemini meteor swarm. Wooooow! I could see 3 tails!
Not so much, but it was easily visible to the naked eye.
However, I've tied the head backward to look up for while. I got stiff neck. I know, I know I don't need to look up the sky. There should be horizontal line. ha, ha.
I remembered how spectacular display form comet Hale-Bopp when I saw in Los Angeles and Las Vegas. That was huge. I enjoyed the sky show almost a week. That was clear to see even there are many apartment buildings. Luck me!
I've been out about 20 minutes, so my face was freezing.
I should drink a cup of tea.
20分外に出て眺めていたから、顔が寒いですっ。
ミルクティーでも飲んであったまろうかな♪

Chesley McLaren
きっと見たことありますよね。


Chesley McLarenのイラストです。
ほのぼのとしながらも気品があって、素敵なイラストですよね。
前にjean-phillippeも触れたけど、好きなんですよね~、こういうイラスト。

You may seen before Chesley McLaren's illustrations.
It has a warm feel to it, but also a dignified elegance. I like those kind things.
I mentioned before Jean-Phillippe. Chesley has same kind feeling. They are my favorite artists.
Chesleyは、デザイナーからイラストレーターへ転身したんですって。今では、広告でひっぱりだこ!!
Chanel, Prada, Dior, Gucciなどなど。
Chesley used to work at Seventh Avenue as a designer. Later she debuted as an illustrator. These days she becomes hot commodities. Her artworks has used for several advertising such as Chanel, Prada, Dior, Gucci, and so on.
このイラストは、Diorの。
This illustration is for Dior.

そして、これはCarlyle Hotelの広告に使われたイラスト。イラストなのに高貴な雰囲気が出るのって、スゴイッ!
This is for Carlyle Hotel. It's not only illustration. I wonder why this artwork has an exalted atmosphere. WOW!

サイトのclients、とっても粋ですよ。flashで沢山のclientsの名前が出てくるんですが、最後に
... and, perhaps, YOU?
って。憎いですよねぇ~。
頼んでみたぁ~い♪
If you see "clients" at her site, that is cool. You can see many well-known name, and at the last,
... and, perhaps, YOU?
Oh, my!! I wish I could work with her someday!?

favorite song-2
Ally McBeal知ってますよね?
その主題歌"Searchin' My Soul"を歌っていたのが、Vonda Shepard。
弁護士のドラマなのに、必ず歌が挿入されている、ちょっと変わったドラマでした。
Vondaなしではこのドラマは成立しないっ!って感じでしたね。
そして、この時期になるとChristmasの曲が必ずかかっていました~♪"Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas"良い曲ですねぇ~。
Favorite song
今、飽きるんじゃないかってくらいに、何度も何度も繰り返し聴いているのが、
Natasha Bedingfieldの"Unwritten"。
The Hillsの主題歌です。←これならピンとくるでしょ?
この曲は、2007年のThe Grammy Awardsで"Best Female Pop Vocal Performance"にNominatedされたけど、残念ながら賞は逃しちゃったみたいです。あぁ~、この年は、Christina Aguileraが"Ain't No Other Man"で受賞してますねー。
I repeat a piece again and again these days.
"Unwritten" by Natasha Bedingfield.
This song is The Hills. If you heard it, you may recognize!
This song was nominated "Best Female Pop Vocal Performance" of the Grammy Awards in 2007, but unfortunately it missed prize. Christina Aguilear won by "Ain't No Other Man". Ummm... That's understandable.

Natasha Bedingfield - Unwritten
I am unwritten,
Can't read my mind
I'm undefined
I'm just beginning
The pen's in my hand
Ending unplanned
Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words
That you could not find
Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten, yeah
Oh, oh
I break tradition
Sometimes my tries
Are outside the lines, oh yeah yeah
We've been conditioned
To not make mistakes
But I can't live that way oh, oh
Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words
That you could not find
Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
drench yourself in words unspoken
live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
the rest still unwritten
(Gospel)
Staring at the blank page before you

Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open *****
