Well, what can I say?
A thousand words?
Just one photo?
This photo was taken on our prom night in '95. I'm wearing a gown that my host grandma had sewn a couple of centuries ago. She used to work as a costumier at the Universal Studios...
I still remember us hunting for that perfect dress in Los Angeles, California. We went in to like a thousand stores and boutiques and came back Canoga Park empty-handed. We just could not find anything that would fit me, or something that I liked. And then we had a look at grandma's closet and I found t h e dress.
Yeah, I do know that my dress stands out in the crowd. But all the other girls got their dresses at the stores that I didn't... I still have that gown in my closet at my parents'. And it fits me, and (don't tell anyone) I try it on every once in a while just to make me feel pretty.
Say "hi" to Yanina, Saori, Narisa, Akiko and all the others!
That's me on the right - hello there! |
