When I was a Maiko...

I'm just kidding. I was looking for some old pics while I was cleaning my room today and I just found this picture that was taken 6 years ago in Kyoto.

I went to this studio and they dressed us like Maiko and took photographs in a professional studio. It was fun. I went there with 3 other friends.

I thought that dressing up and the make-up would take ages, but it was quite fast. It didn't take 30 mins for us to be ready for the photos. The problem was to take all the make-up off after the photos. Gosh, that white thing (shironuri) was really hard to get rid of. We used baby oil, to do that. 大変だった!

Unfortunately it was raining, otherwise, we could've gone for a walk in the old city of Kyoto.

I really like the red Kimono with the pink sakura flowers! :D
