Abot me

 Well, I'm going to write about me today, the writer of this blog.

I was a kid who loved to draw, read and exercise.

I didn't like to be around other people, and I always chose to spend time alone.

I was a somewhat mature child and conversed with adults on an equal footing.

I spent my youth with a sense of emptiness in my heart.

Then one day, I encountered Kabuki in a music class, and I was so shocked that a bolt of lightning went through my body.

From that point on, I researched and researched kabuki like a fish out of water, and I was hooked.

Through correspondence, I met friends who loved kabuki, and through fan letters I received replies from artists of picture books based on kabuki.

Then, when I became a high school student, I came across another Japanese cultural phenomenon, the visual-kei band.

One of the Kabuki actors was a big fan of visual bands, and when I listened to the music of the band he recommended, it was so good that I was hooked.

From Kabuki came the birth of the band chase!

It was not unusual for us to watch Kabuki at lunchtime and then have a live performance in the evening.

It was not unusual for me to watch Kabuki at noon and live performances at night. I was so interested in the "wig" (wig) in Kabuki because it was so beautiful.

I wanted to be a wig maker.

Then, lo and behold! That dream has come true.

I have been working in this field for 10 years.

After I finished that job, I got another job making school bags, which is a kind of culture unique to Japan.

In the midst of a dizzying amount of work, I was constantly stepping on three sewing machines to make school bags of various colors.

It was an exciting time, but at the same time I was very tired.

After that, I made use of my hobby of training and worked at a fitness gym, but I didn't get any luck and left soon after.

I have experienced so many different things.

Japan is a country that places a lot of importance on harmony among people.

I often find it a bit difficult to stick to my personal opinions and to present them.

Especially for women.

In reality, it is difficult for a person like me, who has a clear opinion and a unique personality, to live in an organization.

I believe that we can see deeper things when we clash our opinions with each other, but it seems that this is a minority.

I have a dream that I have had for several years.

I have been dreaming for a few years now that I would like to do a demonstration overseas to show people the beauty of wigs and how they can be worn in various hairstyles.

I love Italy, so with the help of my Italian friends, I tried to get such an opportunity and got my passport.

However, things are not that easy.

The coronavirus had just broken out, and all plans were scrapped.

I dream that one day, when I don't have to be afraid of the coronavirus anymore, my hopes will come true.

My life will be bumpy and uneven, but I hope to make the most of it by properly enjoying the beautiful scenery and people everywhere I go.

See you soon!
