Hey, it's me again. The meeting in Chateaubriant was very nice. We were invited by an association of artists (painters, photographers, sculptors) living in a 13 000 inhabitants town and willing to share their experience with Japanese artists.
Did I tell you about the klezmer live I went last week-end with some friends ? Five musicians (clarinet, violin, trombone, drums, keyboard) played for us joyful tunes in the basement of a café. The room was narrow but we danced, inviting cute girls, lining all together, singing. I was all sweat and beer, shouting "Spiel Klezmorim, Spiel !" and even tried to steal the mike to sing a hassidic song. They weren't very happy with that but we all had a great time. There was an old guy who just looked like Tevye the Milkman from "Fiddler on the roof". Very groovy.
I'm back on the train, with Mr. Kiyono, a funny gentleman. He says that Bretagne's plains remind him of Hokkaidô. I was writing yesterday about my two ambitions this year :
- One is to prepare my PhD abroad at Kyôto University.
- One is to stop wasting time.
I'm not smart, neither athletic, but I believe i can achieve anything I want with efforts. It's time to be serious, guys. I mean, you too ! Fun is important, but it has to be serious fun. I mean, watching some sick reality-show on TV when you're supposed to study will make you feel better. It's just bullshit. If you wanna have fun, prepare some friends and booze for a happy barbecue or invite a sexy woman to dance. Stop bullshiting, that's the word baby ! You can always pretend you're working when you pile, sort, arrange or, let's say, buy stuff on the web ("I need this book for my research !"). One good thing about blogging is that you cannot bullshit too much. It's easier to play games. Sometimes you're maybe too kind with yourself in your posts, but that's okay ! Who else will cheer you, believe in you ? J
I'm done, fellas, enjoy your time !
