Tie 269 and 270

 These ties were also bought at the flea market. However, i think the one with the light blue dots were bought for 100 yen. I took  my time and walked around to find some cheaper ties than the ones that I usually get which are 2 for 1000 yen. I really liked the ones I choose this year.

Tie 268

This picture was taken by my student. I really the pictures students take of me rather than the ones I take of myself. Flea market tie.

Tie 267

This tie and the following three were bought at the Makuhari Messe Flea Market this past May. I really like this one.

Tie 264, 265, and 266

These are the last of the ties. I'm trying to clean up my office before summer vacation. I can't wait!



Tie 263

Another tie from my aunt/uncle. I guess you were wondering why my aunt had those ties. Well my uncle died some time ago and his suits and ties were left in the closet. I don't know why, maybe because of her son who still lives with her. I don't know. This tie I was wearing while studying with one of my favorite students. She's so smart and clever. I'll miss her when she graduates.

Tie 262

The following five ties were chosen and then given to me. This spring vacation, I went to see my grandmother's sister. She lives in Alabama. In the room that I was staying in there was a closet full of neck ties. I sorted through them and chose these five. I then asked my aunt if it was okay to take them. Well first I asked if I could take some times, then sorted, then asked if the ones I chose were okay. I think she was going to give me the whole lot and I just didn't want all those ties since I didn't have a lot of space in my luggage. However, next time I'll try and grab some more.

Tie 261

This tie was given to me by my lovely student Mone. She went to Vietnam on a study tour in February of this year and brought this back for me. She is just so lovely and wonderful.





Tie 260

This tie was given to me last summer from my dear friend Rich. It was a really awesome summer. My boyfriend and I took a rode trip up to Niagara Falls from NYC and I got to see my family and friends. It was pretty awesome.

Tie 259

This tie was given to me by my boyfriend I assume. This post is pretty late. It's from March 2018.
