Royal Wedding Keepsake Kit (Stamps)
May 19th 2011 (Thursday)
今日收到這個. 我在4月29日大婚當日在Canada Post直接訂購, 今日收到了, 用了 20日, Canada Post 真有效率.
上次查先生大婚當日, 我爸爸帶我去買新郵票和整首日封, 至今我仍然記得清楚啊, 所以今次也要買點郵品比我的孩子.
講番呢套郵品, 都ok嫁. 細細的folder內有兩張postcard和一張小全張郵票. 其中一張好多楓葉的Postcard係比人寫上祝福, 寄比Royal couple, 特別啊.
話說Canada Post本來不打算為這次皇室大婚出郵票的. 原因係一套加拿大郵票由概念、設計、生產至推出, 整個流程需要2年. 王子去年11月才公報今年4月結婚, 時間好趕. 後來因為民眾要求殷切, 趕呀趕才出得到這套郵票, 當中仲夠時間比王子和女皇審批啊! 勁呀!
Royal Wedding Keepsake Kit
PS. Canada Post 好可能May 24罷工, 郵遞服務將會更慢一點.

Grounded (芭蕾舞照片展)
May 15th 2011 (Sunday)
今日去National Ballet School看了一個相片展覽會. 相片中人係芭蕾舞學校的學生.
展覽會取名“Grounded”.
相片展示了舞者天使般的面龐和的辛酸的雙腳. 這些學生都只得十幾嵗, 雙腳卻似走了幾十年的路. 他們的雙腳反影了他們的努力和對舞蹈的付出.
看罷, 我真心佩服這些年輕舞者的付出, 希望他們能追到夢想, 在台上發熱發亮.
我小時也很想成為舞者. 當日我放棄習舞, 是迫不得已: 中學功課太忙加上無天資. 熱愛、亦努力過, 但我連續轉圈時會暈, 真的學不上去…很無奈.
想看更多“Grounded”的相片, 可到以下網頁:

Grounded
Wed May 4 – Sat May 28
NBS is partnering with local photographer Joël Bénard and participating in this year's Contact Photography Festival. NBS is hosting Bénard's exhibit, entitled Grounded,
in the Mona Campbell Square. Joël Bénard's exhibit features
photographs of the feet and faces of students of Canada's National
Ballet School. Bénard describes his work as 'creating juxtaposed
portraits that illustrate the hard work and determination of the
performers.'
Toronto's Contact Photography Festival is the largest photography event on a global scale. Over 1,000 artists, consisting of local, national and international individuals, meet to share their work and celebrate the art of photography. Gathering an audience of over 1.5 million, Contact's theme this year, Figure and Ground, is inspired by the writings of Marshall McLuhan.
Joël Bénard is a Toronto-based photographer who has photographed NBS students for many years.
About Grounded:
These diptychs play on the contrast between the seen and the unseen, the fresh and the worn, the ideal and the real. Grounded is literally about the part of the dancers’ bodies that grounds them to the earth, it’s also about the determination and passion that grounds them within themselves.
These images are a testament to the sacrifice that the students give for ballet. Poised and professional, the portraits of the students mimic the beauty of the dance while their feet are shown, as they are – strong but worn.
Paul Calderone, a ballet student who appears in Grounded, says, “There isn’t a single day when ballet feels easy. I never feel like I am the best I can be, so every day is an opportunity to get a little closer to that unattainable perfection.”
Another student who appears in Grounded, Abigail Sheppard, says, “As dancers, we make ballet look painless but it’s not, it’s athletic and hard on our bodies. It’s beautiful but also difficult. And our feet are really the only evidence that speaks to how hard we actually work.”

Kitty 浙江主題公園
Hello Kitty Theme Park!!! 希望有多D My Melody嘢.
井果雨的嗎? 我怕我又係聽唔明啦…Price Point 會點定? 如常的高? 相宜一點? 這麼接近上海, 大概不是大部份內地人也買得起吉蒂吧??!!
我一直想寫一篇我對Sanrio和Disney現今生意情况的看法. 希望這個五月可以寫完.
Anyways, Kitty開主題公園係值得高興的新聞.

Hello Kitty落戶浙江 主題公園60公頃 2014年開幕
【明報專訊】吸引萬千少女的Hello Kitty即將落戶浙江省安吉縣。安吉的Hello Kitty主題公園佔地900畝（60公頃，大過3個維園），總投資額達2億美元 ，今年下半年正式破土動工，預計在2014年建成並對外開放，是繼上海廸士尼後，長三角地區又一個國際綜合旅遊度假區。業內人士指，長三角「米奇老鼠 」與「Kitty貓」的合作，可能對香港廸士尼構成威脅。《第一財經日報》報道，左耳上紮一個蝴蝶結的Hello Kitty自1974年「誕生」以來，令全球成千上萬人著迷，創造了驚人的財富。
有望下半年開工
即將落戶浙江安吉的Hello Kitty家園，是包含酒店、餐飲、娛樂等多項設施的一個主題公園，將是Hello Kitty未來最大的家園。安吉的Hello Kitty家園計劃於今年下半年破土動工，預計建設時間為3年，有望在2014年建成並對外開放。
當地旅社：將成搖錢樹
日本的Hello Kitty主題公園每年接待上百萬女性Hello Kitty迷，有小女孩，也有時尚女人。Hello Kitty品牌擁有者三麗鷗株式會社總裁佐藤誠表示，Kitty貓不像迪士尼的米奇老鼠那樣有故事、有電影，但她始終能緊貼時尚潮流，對時尚脈搏的感悟及把握是Kitty貓成功的關鍵因素。
「Hello Kitty家園將憑藉品牌效應，為安吉至浙江帶來全球各個角落的『粉絲』，它將成為一棵搖錢樹。」浙江省一家旅行社負責人表示，「自從開放日本遊以來，不少旅客就是衝著Hello Kitty去的，有不少旅客甚至在Hello Kitty專賣店一擲萬金，買下其肖像的微波爐、電話機和衣物等商品。」
料與滬迪士尼聯手吸客
業內人士指出，未來相當看好米奇老鼠與Kitty貓兩者的「聯手效應」。「Hello Kitty是有史以來最賺錢的卡通人物之一。 Kitty貓滿足了人們對童真的熱望，完全依靠自身的感召力，成為一個長盛不衰的文化符號。」屆時，距離上海僅兩小時車程的Hello Kitty家園將與迪士尼呼應，長江三角洲這一「雙城聯動」的國際旅遊度假區，屆時勢必對香港迪士尼造成衝擊。

Vintage Hello Kitty items
Vintage Hello Kitty items
這些中古品的相片, 我年前已上載, 但一直未有寫網誌.
約2006年的時候, 我迷上日本的Yahoo拍賣網. 既揾agent bid, 自己又bid, 買了很多寶物. 日本拍賣場的貨品種類多,賣家好nice,真係好好玩. 後來發覺有人從日本網低價買, 然後在feebay超高價賣, 我不會幫襯佢地.
買了中古品一排, 覺得價錢貴質素參差, 所以近年買新出品為主.
這些是我的Vintage Hello Kitty寶物.
迷你杯碟 (un-dated)
Hello Kitty 膠紙
1976年Kitty信封
另一款Kitty信封
1988年Kitty士的水筆. 這枝筆是我的兒時玩具, 不是近年買的.

My IVDSO Melody!!!
My IVDSO Melody!!!!
(IVDSO = In very desperate search of )
這個Melody 公仔, 很難找啊!!! 這張相是幾年前在Sanrio 官網見到的. 本來是Thumbnail圖片, 如今放大來看, 所以很矇. 這公仔是布造的, 手和腳的關節位可以轉動.
這公仔是Melody簽名會特別公仔, 簽名會在Puroland舉行. 公仔上有Melody設計師的手繒Melody和簽名. 大約簽了幾十隻. 其實這公仔不算特別漂亮, 只是設計特別和有紀念性.
我在簽名會舉行前兩天才知道有這個簽名會. 那時我立即揾機票想要飛去日本. 可惜因為加拿大本身就慢過日本半日(時差), 所以即飛都趕唔切.
一直找尋, 但從不見過有人放售. 這一隻算是我儲Melody的小遺憾.
