YES !! I found the geiko in my icon!!!

Category: Art and Photography

she is fukuhiro-san (ふく紘) of shigemori okiya (しげ森) in miyagawachō !!!  - in case you didn't know, she's playing the famous female samurai tomoe gozen, which is the jidai matsuri's most coveted role! it's usually awarded to one of the most prominent and skilled geiko of the participating districts (two of kyōto's five geimaiko districts participate- the districts rotate yearly), or, in miyagawachō'... » Continue Reading

integrating two experiences to form a whole

Category: Romance and Relationships

two of my most important takeaways from what I've learned today in the self-development realm is ' accepting, holistically, that you have needs ' & ' trying to access both sides of your experience of the world '. I apologise in advance if my expla » Continue Reading

there's good music everywhere for those with ears to hear it

Category: Goals, Plans, Hopes

in a literal sense, I'm referring to  this  mashup of azealia banks' '1991' with the vocals of 'roman's revenge' by nicki minaj. it sounds so goooood !!!! I'm trying to let myself enjoy the things that I really love, after all the stress I've been through within the past month. I found out about the non-azealia vocal version through You guessed it: a tiktok s » Continue Reading

maiko-san's skincare

Category: Fashion, Style, Shopping

hello again! I've been thinking lately about how geimaiko-san look after their skin, & wish to apply that curiosity to help myself & others take better care of their skin, too. I've struggled with acne for a long time & am looking for a way to treat it that is soothing to both my skin & my soul. it's always my priority to be true to myself, which includes being selective about what I engage with, ... » Continue Reading

another lucky dream! 🧧

Category: Dreams and the Supernatural

this time I was on the japan trip again, extremely bored & fed up because for the past 3 or so days we'd hardly done anything. this was because the teachers were having to look after sick kids, or were sick themselves, or apparently just going haywire. I got so sick of being in the hotel room that I snuck out (& I KNEW the teachers would be furious with me) to see my mum, who was also in japan? ju... » Continue Reading

poem(?) | the bird's embodiment of freedom will liberate us all

Category: Writing and Poetry

newly tasting the hot and cold of breakfast, welcoming in the satisfaction- there's a magpie outside the kitchen window, aerating the neighbour's front garden with its beak in the search of bugs. it stops to itch itself on the neck. then goes back to plodding along. pecking. this bird seems to know something I don't. it brings light upon the world just by doing what it was brought here for, stayin... » Continue Reading

poem | thoughts of an edo-era courtesan

Category: Writing and Poetry

I of all people know the pain of love. I have kneeled on so many floors that my knees have become numb, does it really matter if it's from the scrubbing, or the entertaining? the pleasuring? either way I am sore. what do you have to tell me that I haven't already heard under this wide white moon? do you have anything to offer me that is not of my own expense? the beautiful silk you paid » Continue Reading

初夢:japan's new-year dream superstitions

Category: Dreams and the Supernatural

よいお年を! (wishing you a good coming year!) you all know by now that I'm a total dreams enthusiast. I believe that we're shown things in our dreams for a purpose, & I love trying to figure out what that purpose is. I also try to influence my dreams through my headspace & environment before sleep (though have never gone so far as to attempt shifting or lucid dreaming). it turns out that the japanese a... » Continue Reading

canberra's nara peace park: a deepened love for kasuga-taisha, & new year's offerings

Category: Travel and Places

welcome back to another episode of "spacehey user kitkatanddog fails to beat the kasuga-taisha obsessed allegations". sometimes I feel bad for posting about it almost exclusively- but I swear I'm trying to write other blog posts too! maybe this post will offer some background, alongside the foreshadowing of my first wisteria blog post. I'm really missing japan tonight, & the feeling of walking aro... » Continue Reading
