Zen Poem about Autumn – 10.000

Ten thousand flowers in spring,
the moon in autumn,
a cool breeze in summer,
snow in winter.

If your mind isn’t clouded
by unnecessary things,
this is the best season of your life.

This poem was written by Wu-men, a Chinese priest also known as Hui-k’ai (1183-1260).

When I saw this collectors card of Yurina I immediately remembered one ot the world’s most famous painting from 16th century. It was of course Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa a.k.a. La Gioconda. There is something in common with those face expressions. Something very enigmatical. But that face does not help the older Mona bacause Yurina beats Lisa 6 – 0. ;)

Ever changing Chisato

It came for me like some kind of surprise that Chisato, this tomboy from C-ute, is one of the most favorite characters amongst H!P fan artists. Chisato inspires fans a lot as you can see when watching these pictures I’ve collected from various sources.

One quite thrilling remark is that some of these fan artists have drawn Chisato with guns. There is also many animal related drawings. One of the most recent pictures is that one where she is with umbrella. Inspiration for that has come of course from this fall’s Tokyo Collection Fashion Show where C-ute girls were doing some catwalking.

My most precious Buono!

I must say that I’m still in a state of euphoria. Kind of. Six hours ago I got Buono!’s Gachinko de Ikou! promotional poster. That’s not itself a cause of my ecstasy but on this poster Miya, Momo and Airi have done their autographs with black drawing pens.

What kind of thoughts swell now in my mind? Let’s see. Miya has touched this poster. That’s the first one. Then comes: I actually own now a very little bit of Miya. And I’m sure there is Miya’s, Momo’s and Airi’s fingerprints on this piece of paper. And: Momo has been bended over this poster when making her autograph. And so on.

This is already on my wall.

Miya’s different kind of “M” looks like a serpentine and “I”s dot is changed to heart. Her pen stroke is strongest of Buono! girls. Does that mean that she is a strong and easy person?

It’s that big eyed eccentric round head again with Momo’s autograph.

Airi’s autograph is very artistic. There is a combination of treble clef and smiling face.

Diving with dolphins

Again we have a nice and fresh treat from BK. It’s Berryz Kobo DVD Magazine Vol. 12. This summer girls went to check out what kind of diversiform life there is under sea’s water surface. They were visiting at Enoshima Aquarium and I can tell they had great time there.

Visually this might be one of the best Hello! Project DVD Magazines ever because you can’t go wrong with those breath taking deep blue aquarium scenes and girls diving with two dolphins. I’ve never been visiting that kind of huge aquarium complex and now when I saw how amazing experience it could be I don’t miss anymore a chance to go to aquarium world if I got any. Maybe next time when going to Japan.

In “Meeting dolphins” section girls got divided in two groups. Here I’ve taken captures from group A’s diving. After Maasa, Miyabi, Risako and Yurina had squeezed themselves in their diving suits they are led one at a time to the bottom of dolphins pool. You can see how excited all four were when they watched dolphins playing and swimming by them. They had mics in their helmets so you can hear how they talked and screamed down there. It’s pity that only Miya’s mic didn’t work so they have done also another version of this section with Miya commenting that diving afterwards.
