i heart elly

Meet Elly, my roomate of 2 years. Elly and I met on really random circumstances that I must explain because this story proves that fate does happen. うんめい in japanese. When I first moved to Japan, I met a DJ name John who was a friend of my friend Yoshito (who I met 7 years early in LA, and ran into randomly in front of familymart in shibuya--anotherうんめい) Anyhow, John used to tell me about his sister who was living in Shanghai and was modeling for Can Can. He was so proud of her. But at that time, I really didnt pay attention because I never thought I would ever meet her.

A few weeks later, my friends from LA were traveling thru asia and decided to drop into tokyo from Shanghai. My friend Steve introduced me to Elly. We partied all night and that morning, we went our separate ways..I went to meet John and Elly went back with my friends. When I met John that morning I was mentioning to him that I met this really cute and sweet girl that I wanted to bring to his party. He asked to look at her photo...

Fate brought elly and I together and she is the best roomate that anyone can ever have!

Unfortunately we will be going our separate ways at the end of next month. She will pursue her acting career in Taiwan and I will have to move to a new place..on my own?! oh noooooooo!! anyhow..

Elly is in LA with me now..to spend my birthday with me. LOVE HER!

ほよよ〜
