Holy crap! I’m SOO CUT! The festival was awesome! Some of the nurses that we met last week came and hung out with us for a bit. Also, Sanyo has these festivals every year (apparently) and every year they hire brazillian dancers. I’ve heard of the term G-string before, but never “T-back.” They’re similar. And… Continue reading Just got back from Sanyo Solar Ark Festival….

Lying on my bed typing, putting off a decent sleep yet again….
It’s a mystery to myself why I choose to do this. I even have a report tomorrow. *sigh* Well, I don’t think this entry will be too long. The weekend. Mainly I want to catch up on the weekend. Let’s start with Friday. One of Ben’s co-workers (Yamada-san) is scheduled to move to Osaka and… Continue reading Lying on my bed typing, putting off a decent sleep yet again….
I need an iron and ironing board! :(
Yesterday was cool. Very cool. But I’ll get back to that. Gotta maintain the chronological-ness of everything, you see. Mostly, last week at work was reading. Lots of reading. So, it wasn’t exactly very fun, but there wasn’t any pressure, either, so that was nice. I got many things over the last week. Tuesday, we… Continue reading I need an iron and ironing board! 🙁

Yes, I’m sitting naked on the floor right now. I don’t mean to paint such a graphic picture, but it is SO HOT HERE!! Today… er.. okay, yesterday, was “fureaidei.” Apparently, it means “contact” in Japanese. Every Friday, (or payday – but not both in one week) is called fureaidei, and this is the only… Continue reading Listening to Sublime, sitting naked on the floor, waiting for laundry
Just got back from my 3rd day of work
I’m sitting on my bed eating “ebisen,” this super tasty, super artificial shrimp cracker/chip thing. Yum. Let me see… work. I’ve never actually worked in a “western office” environment, but I know this: the Japanese office environment is WAY different. I get there at 8:40am, 5 minutes before I’m suppose to be there. Other people… Continue reading Just got back from my 3rd day of work
Lying on my bed typing….
Japan Time: 9:00am, June 27 Vancouver Time: 5:00pm, June 26 I finally made it. The trip itself, turned out to be a little more adventurous than I had planned, however. When the plane landed in Tokyo, I had an hour and fifteen minutes before I was suppose to board the next plane (to Nagoya). However,… Continue reading Lying on my bed typing….
On a Boeing 747 somewhere over the Pacific Ocean
We’ve encountered some turbulence and the captain has told us not to panic. The oxygen masks have leaped out from hiding in anticipation. … Just kidding. =) While there is minor turbulence at the moment, but it’s nothing to get worried about. I say this, of course, being an expert on the matter. ^_^ So,… Continue reading On a Boeing 747 somewhere over the Pacific Ocean
