Wish upon a star: Episode 2

Can't believe plain bagle is gone like a UFO!
Can't believe cinnamon raisin bagle is served without cream cheese (nor butter)!!

Now all I can do is to wish upon a twinle little star, and
buy no bagle but a cup of coffee at Starbucks in Tokyo every single morning as always.

By the way, this list reminded me of "Dekalog", a polish film series in 1989, inspired by the Ten Commandments.

Chi City (and Mr. West)

Purchased Kanye West's new album "Graduation" last weekend.
Also got Common's "Finding Forever" last month.

Now all I need is Chicago's Deep dish pizza!!

西遊記 (Go West!)

Delhi, India in March 2007

"A Dream" by Common feat. Will.I.Am

2 bad that:
1. The movie "Freedom Writers" wasn't showed in the theaters in Japan.
(have to wait until November for the DVD release)
2. The song is not available at Sony's Mora Store*
(only I can do for now is crossing my fingers)

Note:
"A Dream" is a soundtrack song of the movie, by the way.
(I posted video links on the right for now)

*Sony's Mora is an online music store like iTunes Store
