The Fabulous Uri Nakayama


She is Uri Nakayama, is a female singer-songwriter and hairdresser in Japan. Nakayama plays an accordion and trumpet not only vocal. She sings while playing the accordion with having sat down and sometimes plays the trumpet which she puts in the side. Her music is unplugged sound, she usually plays the music with 4 support members, guitar, bass, drum and percussion.
Nakayama's music is introduced as blended world accordion music, Gypsy Jazz, Musette, Tango and etc. and her voice is advertised as "miracle voice" by record label. She sings by low, warm, smooth and soft voice.
Nakayama's most song is with Japanese lyrics, a few song is instrumental and scat singing. She takes some nostalgic scenes, festival, harbor town, sunset and etc. as lyrics's motif, frequently. Because she sings some Japanese folk music cover version, her music is thought of as affected by those music. *Wikipedia*

Holiday III

Mom, dad, and my sister went to Cibodas for family reunion. Me and Rika, my friend, just stayed at home. We rented some movies, eat in a mall, watch tv, did some boring things, and I drove to a Church on Sunday morning. On Monday, my mom and my sister had come home.
My uncle and my aunt from Holland with their kids, my cousins came to my house.
Dennis, you look like a drinker. Are you drunk with that Sarsaparilla? haha! Kevin drank a bottle of Sarsaparilla. Great. I knew it had weird taste. Ahaha. I like old things, soo vintage. I think we should go somewhere to have fun some day. See you!

Holiday II


On my holiday I watch Penguins of Madagascar, Two and a Half Men, Friends, and Britain's Next Top Model almost everyday.
I also took my mom to the market.
I saw Spark in Gramedia-bookstore, interesting I think. I suddenly found a SpongeBob sandwich maker. Hehee..I think, I'll buy if I had some money.
I also enjoy cookiesandcream with caramel on the top of whipped cream.

HOLIDAY-eat

I make 'sprinkle ice' (es serut) with this machine. I pour red fanta and sweet milk on it. *that happens when I watch Chibi Maruko Chan with her sprinkle ice. yummy! water flows from my mouth..*

My sister made a pasta. She didn't use spaghetti but angel hair. She put meatball, frozen vegetables, cheese(cheese was my request), and chili sauce. Hmm.

We ate these at ToraBistro in Ambarukmo Plaza.
