I made this doll over thirty years ago when I lived in Japan
I have no idea HOW any more . . .couldn't duplicate it if I tried
But she is still pretty
She has aged gracefully, as a Geisha should =)

I TOTALLY forgot about the Totally Informal Transglobal Thursday Challenge
OOPS!
So here and now I dedicate this to Jennifer and her style of using fotos with songs
"I could escape this feeling, with my China Girl
I feel a wreck without my, little China Girl
I hear her heart beating, loud as thunder
Saw they stars crashing
I'm a mess without my, little China Girl
Wake up mornings where's my, little China Girl
I hear her heart's beating, loud as thunder
Saw they stars crashing down
I feel a-tragic like I'm Marlon Brando
When I look at my China Girl
I could pretend that nothing really meant too much
When I look at my China Girl
I stumble into town just like a sacred cow
Visions of swastikas in my head
Plans for everyone
It's in the whites of my eyes
My little China Girl
You shouldn't mess with me
I'll ruin everything you are
I'll give you television
I'll give you eyes of blue
I'll give you a man who wants to rule the world
And when I get excited
My little China Girl says
Oh baby just you shut your mouth
She says ... sh-sh-shhh"
David Bowie's China Girl
