What im about to write will come as a shock to most of you [those whom I personally know] and the reason for me putting it out here in cyberland for the world to see is not for recognition by any means, but because, mentally im soo tired and I think im loosing my voice over this. Hiro and I have decided to get a divorce. I really hate saying that word because it has such a bad connotation, and this has been anything but negative. Both Hiro and I have been able to put all negative things aside and focus on what's more important, our friendship. For those who have known me for some time and are really close to me, this does not come as a surprise, but others im sure it is. There is so many people that I would want to tell this to in person but im sure by the time I got to them or you, it will have already been heard. So im putting this out there, so you get it straight from me. Im aware that it is extremely tacky to put something like this up on my blog, but after 3 hours of talking on the phone to my dad, brother, and sister im truly exhausted, and don't want to keep doing it over and over again. So I apologize for those whom I might offend by not telling you personally, it is nothing against you. Anyone is more than welcome to ask questions or whatnot. I am just really glad and lucky to say that Hiro and I will remain good friends through this, and will truly continue our friendship afterwards. He is a great person and I can't imagine not being his friend! So the picture that ive posted is the view from our apartment window, I love this view, and our huge windows to look through at it. But im looking forward to my new view, which will be after Christmas. My older sister and I will be getting an apartment together, hopefully somewhat close to school..... So that is all I have to say... if any of you have any good positive advice, it is greatly welcome! xo *roxy*

i can't wait to see where life takes you in the coming months and years. you are an amazing, creative soul.
Thanks Tricia,
that means a lot!
this is very sad news. i had one of the worst divorces in history so if you need stella and i for anything (talking, moving, taking a break) just let us know...please go forward slowly and carefully. i hope you will come through stronger on the other side.
oh my goodness, roxy!!
matthew just told me to come read your blog...
i'm shocked to hear this but i hope you're okay - and stay strong!!
i'm emailing you soon - if you need a place to go to, talk to someone, like matthew said, anything,
please call me - i know you're tired of talking about it now, but whenever. :)
hi roxy,
i wish you well. it's a great thing to know which friendships in life are worth keeping.
i recently did an interview on loveyoudeer.com and said nice things about you! :)

Hey matthew & Stella! Thankyou for your support! :) Ill email you guys back tomorrow...
And the same to you Brenda! It is funny how we are deciding to keep our relationship, and then I think about others, like my parents for example who divorced 8 years ago and how it could have easily been a mutual friendly parting if they wanted to, Both of us knew it could go either way and we just opted for the more positive. :)
Hi Roxy, Just sending you my kindest regards and letting you know that I am here if you ever needed to grab a coffee and chat or anything at all! Take care. XOXO Amy
oh roxy, my heart goes out to you, im thinking of you, please, if you ever need someone to listen, or anything...
you are amazing, a ray of sunlight and you have so much to share, so here's to new beginnings and the best of luck to it!
(ps im glad you're still here with us)
xoxoxo
oh roxy, good luck sweet lady.
i don't really have anything to say except that i just know, like everyone else has typed, that you're going to do amazing things.
hi roxy,
i know we don't know each other very well...but I love you! you are such an awesome person, if you need to get away for awhile you should come stay w/me in hawaii :)
oh roxy! i am sorry to hear of the news, but i'm so happy to hear that you are doing this in a friendly way and doing this in order to maintain your friendship. i will never forget the morning you and hiro cooked me and quentin delicious pancakes, we think of you both often and we send our warmest, toughest thoughts to the both of you in this odd, rough time.
lots of love.xoxoxoxo.
Hi ladies! ~ thankyou so much for your kind words! It is funny, but I just know things will be okay, perhaps knowing this has to do with how well Hiro has treated me through this whole ordeal, because believe me it usually does not end like this, but we are trying not to focus on it ending with us, but more like wrapping it up and then giving what we as individuals have to offer to somebody else as a gift.
I 100% know that so much of style and design aesthetic has been greatly shaped through the help of Hiro, I owe so much to him in that area! Before we met I feel like I had so many "great" ideas and that they were just flowing all over the place onto other ideas, and with the help of Hiro's perspective on design I feel ive really been able to as he says Keep It Simple Silly [K.I.S.S] <- he has had to tell me that sooo many times!!! and also his famous quote, "that is very snake legs" [japanese saying meaning: you draw a snake and it looks good, then you decide to add some legs to it, and now it looks awkward, so take the legs away] Sooo yes this snake legs problem periodically creeps into my designs now and again..... anyways, I hope just from that tid bit you can see why we have to remain close friends! :)
