Instant


My cute wee neighbor, always ready to hi-5
Living here, I've automatically started flipping peace whenever someone whips out a camera. Can't. seem. to. help. myself.
Dance festival on Sado island. Sugoi!
These ladies told me "I am strong woman. I am boss' and then burst out laughing. I think they have a lot of fun together.

My friend Mike tried on my denim jacket. Doesn't quite fit.
Occasionally it feels so good to talk English to other native speakers in Japan.
Hip hop night at a local club. Sometimes they'll stop the music and have a dance competition. I've witnessed some really cheesy synchronized moves. Amazing!


After toying with the idea for a while, I got a fuji film instant camera. It sure is nice to have a polaroid back in my life. I forgot the thrill of watching it develop before my eyes and the joy of being able to share it with people instantly. Thanks for all the lovely comments on the hyaku en post. I'll announce the winner tomorrow!

  3. Yes, please bring polaroid back! Have you heard about the impossible project? May be a good alternative in the interim.

    Ladybird, I definitely don't regret buying the fuji camera. So much fun!
