this should help to see who, if anyone, checks this anymore



just in case you haven't caught on yet
that's jo's hand.

Guinness anyone??

off again

so we said goodbye to Japan.
and relaxed with several summer movies in KL
London brought more relaxing, some frisbee
some video games, and some pubs. Next up comes
Dublin. Jo's family, Guinness and Irish things.

more super exciting earth shattering news ...
coming soon!

almost out

SO the last saturday has come and gone,
my farewell party was a great time
had some yakiniku and maybe some beer!
afterwards, the diehards headed out to
karaoke... until 5am. ah yes, good times

the last week was hectic and flew by, as
i figured it would, I didn't really eat
that well, slept way too little and as a
result, I think i have a cold, but i've
been lazily relaxing / cleaning all day
knocking back the old Oj and vitamin C
drinks.

time to head for a quick bite to eat and
back to cleaning. see you soon.

natto

natto is fermented soy beans
it's gooey, smells like, well
rotten soy beans, and the taste
texture... I'll just say it's one
of two Japanese food stuffs that
I do not like. Yes Sarah I've had
natto. It's nasty.

the other thing i can't do is
tororo i think, its a rice dish
with grated mountain potato or
something and it's also nasty.

and if you look at that video clip
sarah left in the last comment. that
guy is huge here, comics, tv, everything
you can rent his costume at some karaoke
places. Japan loves the crazy daytime
variety shows. later

shakes

neither of us were anywhere near the earthquake, still plan to leave
in about 2 weeks. that's all.

winding down

that's right, cleaning...
it's not so much fun.
anyway...
last night was the big typhoon
students asked me if i had water
and acted like it would be a full
blown hurricane. well, it got a little windy
and there was rain, yep and that's about it.
big let down on the storm front, good that
it wasnt really big enough to hurt anything
so...
this post is basically i'm in the middle of
doing laundry. yeah. anyone up for doing
anything when i get back should leave a
comment.

go for a drink, I guess there's a new
japanese place in Aswaubenon. hang out.
play the wii, I'll probably be getting
an xbox 360, so kill some monsters etc.
even go for some taco bell. it'll
probably be a little shocking getting
back to the west. anyway... see you
soon... ish

comin home

it's true, and for those of you who don't know.

Aug 1 to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
Aug 6ish to London, England
Aug 9ish to Dublin, Ireland
Aug 14 to the US

see you soon, I'm also semi planning to be in the GB area for maybe a couple years, that's right. funny how things work eh?

Also, I'll hopefully be throwing a little I'm home party catered by myself with all of the Japanese goodies I've learned how to make ( don't worry if you are scared of sushi, I've gotten quite good at westernizing Japanese cuisine).

see you soon.
