First day back at work after christmas is always tough, but even tougher when you realise that your first day back is the same day that back Tokyo hardcore has a sale! First hour 50% off and then 20% off for the rest of the day. Unfortunately I couldn’t go but Tamara and Jaana were able to make it in and they picked up the AP stamp sealing ring that I had been eyeing off ! I even got drop off service afterwards, thanks girls!
While they were over they reminded me that Arietty, the new Ghibli movie was screening the next evening at the moonlight cinema, so we got our rufflebutts into gear and quickly organised a small meet up for the night.
On the day Tamara and Jaana came over early and we cooked up some sausage rolls, sandwiches and packed up a picnic. We are very lucky that the weather had cooled down outside, we have been having 39 degree weather recently but the temperature dropped down considerably on the night so much that Carrie, who had rugged up in her gorgeous AP Milky-chan coat was the warmest and most prepared of the group!! Underneath she was wearing her new Angelic Pretty Sugar hearts OP. Tamara was wearing Angelic Pretty Miracle Candy triple frill JSK and I was wearing Alice and the Pirates Beardsley Rose.The rest of us raided the car and rugged up in blankets as the night went on! We snacked and chatted until the sun went down and then they pumped up the blow up screen and the movie began!
The movie was excellent, they had all the hallmark Ghibli style and detail. I was a little dissapointed with the general story line and dialogue though there may have been a little of that list in translation. The ending left you wondering what was going to happen next, but I wont say too much more as I dont want to spoil it for anyone who hasnt watched it yet. Overall worth watching but not my favourtie Ghibli.
