Day 30

go all the way

hey friends! how is your year so far? and how is your day so far? how was yesterday? yesterday i was good, having fun, confused, happy, feeling sad, and full after dinner very comfortable. loved my dog. hated the world at some moment. loved my meals. and loved my people. i go all the way. like this road. please go your way too, you don’t have to be good at it, nor a good person, nor perfect at all. just make sure, if you really want to go that way, then go. be confident about you who made the decision. be proud of yourself. and love yourself. if it seems hard for you to do it, you don’t have to. when you are sad, cry. don’t smile. then you can smile later from your heart. there is nothing you have to do. if you follow your heart, it’s simply more fun than not following. sounds complicated? to me too. but i also think it is the simplest of all. i sometimes notice that you deserve to be loved by you. please know that i am not telling you. mostly just writing a note down for myself. because i am very grateful that i got to get the chance to join the U.P. let’s donate for Songs For Kids today! it will bring you something too. <3 happy december 30 to all xa

picture no. 5 is like a filmstill and try to imagine how the music would be.
A new silhouette every day and so playful – a whole great month.

This has been the most disappoint month of all. This young lady is obviously trying to impress some modelling agency. Hardly a smile in place. Pose after pose after pose. And all that script !! I’m glad she raised the money she did for her charity but I hope the next month is much better as my interest in waining fast.

Aki you are a breath of fresh air! I have loved the uniform project this month more than any other and I’m sure you have inspired many to look at their wardrobes differently, you certainly have for me. congrats on a great month- and happy new year to you.

I have been following the UP from practically the beginning, and I don’t like to take favorites, but now I must. This month has been a delight, from your written posts, to your pictures, to your clothes, it felt fresh and professional at the same time. Arigatou Aki

Great Job! This whole month has been full of thoughtful and creative outfits with very lovely photographs. All the UPs have inspired me to reuse my old clothing and to buy less clothing. Thank you!

Today’s outfit is as interesting as the rest have been. But I must really thank you for your words today as they were exactly what I needed to hear and I’ll be coming back to re-read them often. You’re a gift, Aki.
