Description My other fav singer: MIYAVI
I write here several interesting fact about him
Original Japanese Name: Ishihara Takamasa
Original Koreanise Name: Lee Ki Ah
Birth date and place: Sep 14th 1981, Konohanaku, Osaka
Blood type: AB
Favcolor: Pink (This explain much about his personality )
He has claimed to be his own favorite artis.
He has issues shouting all the time, no matter where he is.
And he cannot go a day without hugging someone.
Height:183cm~185cm (about 6'0"~6'1")
Favorite Boxers/Briefs:Playboy
Favorite Fragrance:Yvessaintlaurent Baby Doll
Strong Point: Guitar
Favorite Brand:John Galliano / Dress Camp / Don Ed Hardy / LeSportsac / my inferior products / Room No.382 (382 is his name)

Piercings:
He has three piercings in his face (right eyebrow, left nostral, right bottom lip) six in his ear (whoa, I need 2 more ), and one "secret" piercing. The interesting thing about his lip piercing is, it actually goes through his lip as opposed to under/around it like most piercings do.

Tatoos:
miyavi commented on of his tattoos, Omitoufu: "It is the speech in the Buddha literature of Wisdom. I want to spend my life to find the answer of my heart".

Miyavi's back tattoo:
The Heart Sutra, in its Japanese form (the Hannya Shingyo), is often chanted by Zen groups before and/or after a meditation sitting. It's ideal for this purpose because its concise length (less than 300 syllables) makes it easy to memorize, while still capturing the essential elements of Buddhist teaching.

The Prajnaparamita Heart Sutra:
When the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara
was coursing in the deep Prajnaparamita,
he perceived that all five skandhas are empty,
thereby transcending all sufferings.
Sariputra, form is not other than emptiness
and emptiness not other than form.
Form is precisely emptiness and emptiness precisely form.
So also are sensation, perception, volition, and consciousness.
Sariputra, this voidness of all dharmas
is not born, not destroyed,
not impure, not pure, does not increase or decrease.
In voidness there is no form,
and no sensation, perception, volition or consciousness;
no eye, ear, nose, tongue, body, mind;
no sight, sound, smell, taste, touch, thought;
there is no realm of the eye
all the way up to no realm of mental cognition.
There is no ignorance and there is no ending of ignorance
through to no aging and death and no ending of aging and death.
There is no suffering, no cause of suffering,
no cessation of suffering, and no path.
There is no wisdom or any attainment.
With nothing to attain, Bodhisattvas relying on Prajnaparamita
have no obstructions in their minds.
Having no obstructions, there is no fear
and departing far from confusion and imaginings,
they reach Ultimate Nirvana.
All past, present and future Buddhas,
relying on Prajnaparamita, attain Anuttara-Samyak-Sambodhi.
Therefore, know that Prajnaparamita
is the great mantra of power,
the great mantra of wisdom, the supreme mantra,
the unequalled mantra,
which is able to remove all sufferings.
It is real and not false.
Therefore recite the mantra of Prajnaparamita:
Gate, Gate, Paragate, Parasamgate, Bodhi Svaha

In the last line of "The Heart Sutra", it says:
"Gate, Gate, Paragate, Parasamgate! Bodhi Svaha!", which means "Gone, gone, gone over, gone fully over, Awakened! So be it!

Mother: Japanese
Father: Zanichi Korean

mmm... Well, you should maybe ask about it. You could look for another job but if you really enjoy it, its probably worth keeping.

I don't have guts to ask a raise. Because our office is a new office.So it maybe needs more time to be a big one.

I want to hear what's interesting in that excursion XD

im sure theyre good. Sometimes its just hard to look at your own art from a different perspective. i do it too. i cant stop thinking about what i wanted it to look like, and just look at it. What are you thinking about applying for with it? anything in particular?

ImperialBlue In reply to tumortoad [2010-03-01 05:34:06 +0000 UTC]

hm, maybe I'll apply as a designer in Graphic House, I want to learn Adobe Illustrator more. I'm still not sure with my skill. But I'll apply any jobs, as long as they have better salaries and I think I'll learn more in difficult circumstances.

that sounds cool. what sort of stuff are you putting in your portfolio...as in, what are most of your pics of?
Do you do much web coding? i really want to learn.

ImperialBlue In reply to tumortoad [2010-03-04 02:03:52 +0000 UTC]

I make only brochure and poster. Sometimes I make just mock up of web design, but I don't do the coding. I want to learn too, but I always end up with confused head @_@
Do you have already learned HTML? Maybe this page can help you. [link]
I found it,and try to learn it, but it's pretty hard for me >_<

yer welcome ^^
yeah pretty complicated, just learn it little by little, or you'll get confused like me

No, it's hard to make a compilation, when all my stuff are not so good. And I hate to write the details like date, purpose, what kind of program that I used in that artwork
I'm pretty lazy T_T

yay school has been so hectic at the moment, i didn't really expect it to be so stressful this year, but it is. Ive got so much homework, it's killing me ill get it done, im just such a procrastinator, and so unmotivated at the moment...
I've been feeling rather uninspired within the artistic feild at the moment, its rather depressind. It's a serious artistic block, and i just cant do anything good. Itll pass soon...i hope.

ImperialBlue In reply to tumortoad [2010-03-30 04:10:14 +0000 UTC]

Howdy
Sorry for being hiatus for so long.
Normally I'll see many artworks in DA or watch animes, sometimes it will help me to pull me out from that artblock condition. Or maybe we should start from anatoy first? I always have a trouble to make a daily sketch.


I have many problems too, so I was not in the mood to play in DA><.
I have quarelled with my lil sister and parents lately. Because I always can't sleep on time. My sis always working in our bedroom, doing animation stuff, plus she hears music and lights on all the lamps in our bedroom. As a result, I'm always sleepy and can't get up on time to help my mom doing daily activity such as cooking and washing cloth. And my mom shout at me in order to wake me up everyday, and it's really horrible!! Cause I always wake up in a shock and this kind of shock happens every morning even my mom never shout on Sunday. And the worst thing is, neither my mom or my dad will fix this kind of condition.

Sorry to tell u this disgrace situation in my fam. But I'm so stressed to live in this family. Wanna go far away, so that I don't have to meet them for so long ><

tumortoad In reply to ImperialBlue [2010-03-31 01:30:45 +0000 UTC]

why don't you find your own place and see how that works out? Maybe you could rent somewhere with a friend or to so it wont be as expensive.
Ive also been very tired lately, but not because i dont get enough sleep, just cause im doing so much every day. I'll move away from my family when im finished school. They also shout a lot, but luckily not at me, only at eachother. I love them lots but i think i will be happy living somewhere else.
Do you like the area that you are living in?

ImperialBlue In reply to tumortoad [2010-04-08 07:22:34 +0000 UTC]

Yeah. I'm saving my money now. But nobody wants to rent a room. Our salary is not big enough I guess.

Actually I like capital, but in Jakarta, the traffic is always jam. We waste much of our time just stuck in the traffic jam.

tumortoad In reply to ImperialBlue [2010-04-08 09:43:29 +0000 UTC]

tumortoad In reply to ImperialBlue [2010-04-08 23:38:28 +0000 UTC]

you should get your liscence. Its not too bad learning to drive...although im lucky cuse lismore isnt too crowded...so its easier.

ImperialBlue In reply to tumortoad [2010-04-09 15:21:10 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, but I don't have a private car. I mean that car belongs to my parents.And they never lend me to try it, or to practice with it =_= They'r scared that it may be damaged, and then we'll have no more transportation. Sigh. It's not fair. My big bro can use it. And they permitt him to use it

tumortoad In reply to ImperialBlue [2010-04-09 23:30:07 +0000 UTC]

that sucks... maybe you could get a couple of driving lessons and then they might let you use the car.

ImperialBlue In reply to tumortoad [2010-05-06 02:37:39 +0000 UTC]

I took the driving lesson before, but I'm still not good enough to drive a car in a traffic without a instructor. And what's more, the traffic in my country is sooo chaotic. You'll understand if u someday come to my country. Many bicyclis drive counterflow.

ImperialBlue In reply to tumortoad [2010-05-24 02:00:14 +0000 UTC]

So try to practice everyday, do you have car in your fam, if yes, you can lend it and try to drive when the traffic is not so dense. My friend always practice driving at 5.00am, when most of people still sleeping.

I think I almost finish my portfolio. I just can't find a good photograph of me, since I'm not cute or cool enough. And it's always hard to start writing a good and simple biography since my english is so bad, and I don't know for sure what I have to write. Do u want to see it now maybe?D: Coz I guess I'll need more time to fulfill those two conditions.

Thanx u, but I often open dictionary, because I can't remember many words;__; maybe because I never use them, so they never attach in my mind.

I'm so happy to know that u can pretty good understand what I wrote. Most people have much missunderstanding when the have conversation with me=/

Thanx u for cheering me up. I hope I'll get a suitable job soon. I like to make illustrations, like I normally do in DA, but it seems that I don't have enough passion to master it. My dream maybe to be a great illustrator.

How about u? what kind of specific job would u like to get?
