Geisha.


Going through the shelves of a local library here in kuwait I came across ' memoirs of a Geisha' by Arthur Golden. Developed a liking to read this book since i heard alot about the movie.
This Geisha character seems to be funny,Lets ask 'nickback' about it.


Geisha are professional female entertainers who perform tradition Japanese arts at banquets.
Girls who wish to become a geisha, have to go through a rigid apprenticeship during which they learn various traditional arts such as playing instruments singing, dancing, but also conversation and other social skills.Geisha are dressed in a kimono, and their faces are made up very pale.
Jeez, Its got to be boring being a Geisha, Having your face painted white,and having your virginity auctioned.Happy to be me. I havent seen the movie yet, Definetly need some reviews ,Since im not one of those 'sleepy reader's' and the book does seem to be very slow paced.But they do have a golden chance to learn instruments and singing.

Thankx so much for appreciating my blog page and my postings. Well I do try my best alot to cope it up. Well one thing I want to say over here Nida, if no one wants to appreciate or that much muslim as he/she should be, perhaps from the post, I can get the idea what people think of it. Now Please do me a favor, I'll be so much thankful if you leave some goods or bads on my guest book, this would be much worthy for me.

cheers :)
