Day 1

Leaving NY

Hi, my name is Aki Goto, leaving ny today for about three months. For Idaho! My boyfriend will be working there so decided to go with him. I don’t even know what is in there but believe so beautiful and so different than ny.

I am an artist and doing some different kinds of things all the time as I am talking at my bio page, so very excited what I will be doing for my art over there as well. We will see! My boyfriend, I, and a cutie (you will see her soon) will be headed for there by car. We don’t even know how long it will take us but this moving would be a part of the specials! Yes, because this is a journey to joy.

So I am leaving now. With my cute little black dress, and my loves. Just to find joy, and send you something. I chose Songs for Kids as my fundraiser for December thinking of you, me, and my journey. i’ll have so much fun, so hope you will be able to enjoy my month with me. Nice to meet you all, and hope to see you all tomorrow. Many kisses, Aki.

I’ve been following UP since the beginning now, and am excited for a new month! Just wanted to let you knows about Jumo (http://www.jumo.com/). I recently came across it in the NYTimes (http://www.nytimes.com/2010/11/30/technology/30jumo.html?src=me&ref=homepage). It’s a social networking site like Facebook but specifically for charities. Thought it might be a good way to get your word out.

Shoulder pads!!??!! Awesome!!!!! I can’t help noticing that you have a very beutiful face from the side. Also, the message on your pilot profile was very touching. Plus your dress is very original. I can’t wait to see how you’ll do, especially since you have huge shoes to fill after Angie’s month!

Loving the double button effect. We just moved to Boise from Chicago two weeks ago and are loving the gorgeous scenery. I’m a writer and there is a lot to be inspired by here! Can’t wait to follow your journey.

Love the double buttons and the two different shapes the dress creates. Can’t wait to see it turned around. We just moved to Boise a couple of weeks ago and love Idaho. As a writer, the spectacular scenery inspires me! (Lots of great thrift shopping as well!)

Where in Idaho are you moving?! As a native Idahoan…Welcome to the Gem State! lol There are some pretty great people up north 🙂 I promise it isn’t all just potatoes. Idaho needs style so get ready to bring it! Love the dress! Especially the buttons. Safe travels.

I adore this design —- I think this is my favorite of all the LBD’s I’ve seen thus far. I love wrap dresses, and this is a lovely spin on the concept. I hope this dress ends up in the Up Project store soon 🙂
