Lost in Translation
Just shot with a super hip Japanese guy that played techno music and had lots of Betty boop and lady gaga stuff! We went up on the roof and it was beautiful outside. I introduced him to some latex websites...he really liked it. His English wasn't that great, so I helped him with some mail forms. His girlfriend likes Betsy Johnson and she had lots of bags and shoes around. I shot in my pair that I brought with me! His directions sounded just like the guy from Last in Translation. Hes going back to Japan in January, so hopefully Ill have a contact if I ever end up going there. I remember my ballet teacher from Tokyo used to tell us to go model in japan if we wanted to make some money...they love American girls! She was such a label junkie...everything was Gucci and Prada. Once she even asked me about dancing for money...I would have helped her but she was married and didn't think her husband would approve. It was because of her I think that I got my college scholarship. She wrote me a letter of recommendation that said I could do anything I set my mind to! I loved her, but she never gave me the lead parts in her ballets. Maybe because I was so stubborn about doing things her way. I was still faithful with the teachings of my original Russian teacher from Estonia, who's parents we both killed during the revolution. I was under full scholarship in both places, but in the former I was teaching little girls in the first level. That was a lot of fun but I'm not sure how good I was at it!
