    2 Years in Japan! :))

    OMG! Like, already! :) April 1 2014 when I arrived here with the intention of staying for long. And now, look at us! Already 2 years! And counting...MEH. Actually, it should be adjusted because I came home to the Philippines, right? So yeah there's that. Anyways, I hope we all go to more adventures together. 

    Sakura is pretty at this point of time. I remember it was just as beautiful when I arrived 2 years ago. It was like Japan is welcoming me back or something. Emotions, OMG. Anyways, Ciao!

    鳥忠さがみの亭 Chicken!

    鳥忠さがみの亭 Chicken!

    Lunch time. I was actually craving for this because you know, I remember liking their chicken before and so you know, must come back. 


    Went with my food buddy/gala buddy and devoured! No mercy.


    It was so Chinese! Like, I never really got into a Chinese restaurant that looks quite Chinese. Most of the places are subtle. This one is all out! Like there are some feng sui-ish stuff there and lotsa mirrors! 


    Basically ordered Chicken because that's what they are known for anyways. For take out at least. Or so I think. I don't really know. I guess they have sushi as specialty actually.  

    Chicken Combo

    Karaage and chicken skin. The skin was good! The chicken was so-so but you know, kinda good. I'll just give them that.

    Tebasaki Karaage 

    This one is the winner. Like, you have to consume the chicken right away though. Also, they don't have lunch set menus which is a thing here in Japan so instead they give you a 20% hook-up until 2pm. Great deal! Ciao!

    My New Bike

    November 20, 2015 0
    My New Bike

    I actually thought of buying a new bike ever since my lock got broken. But I was like, I can live with a broken lock. And then less than a month ago, I got a flat tire. I have two options by then. First, I get myself a new tire and still live with a broken lock. Second, I buy myself a new bike and I don't get to deal with a broken lock anymore. Who wouldn't choose the later, right? A new tire would cost probably like 1/3 the price of my previous bike anyways so yeah. No regrets! 


    Bry and I went to this place called Daiwa Cycle nearby and the plan was to actually go to Mega Don Quijote to buy this stuff because we both haven't been there yet but then Bry saw the cycle shop and so we stopped and basically bought the bike because you know, I'm not really picky with my bike. I was just like, this time I should have something that I like the color of. And they did have a wide variety of colors! I'm impressed. And it's relatively cheap! 


    This bike is classified red by the shop but Bry and I settled for "pink". Kind of. So anyways, when were about to load the bike, it doesn't fit! Early in the morning, way before going out to buy a bike, actually, even like weeks before buying, we were discussing about this already and we were really worried about it not fitting in and stuff and yeah so apparently it doesn't fit but yeah the guy staff was like helping Bry out and it comes to the point where he needed to go back to the shop, I guess? So I was like, okay, must go home in a bike. So yeah it's not very near, but not really far though, like, maybe 20 minutes away by bike. Really thankful that we didn't buy it in DonKi because we're dead. LOL. I think it's like twice the distance of that place and can I just say that I have to go to work that night? Crazy night that was. Also, it was raining. Darn. 


    I haven't said goodbye to my old bike yet. It's still in our parking space. Sorry neighbors. I just can't let it go of it yet but I agree with you if you would say I move it where it's not blocking anyone's way. Someday if I remember ;)

    FIRST for the first time.

    September 24, 2014 0
    FIRST for the first time.



    I hope it's for the iPhone 6. But Shiz is expensive. Kind of. Anyways. 
















    You see friends, I'm not always first. In fact, I'm rarely first at anything. But look oh look! When I was about to go home from work, I was first! Well no one was around so I assumed I was first but who knows? 










    This thing rarely happens. Like, on a normal day this station rarely gets that crowded per se but then it's like rare to have no one around so yay! I was actually really excited that this happened so I thought I'd share it with you. Also, I'm a shallow person. 












    Sunrise. It's just beautiful. It's been busy at work last few weeks and I actually don't see the sun rise at all so now that it's way less busy than we were, I at least get to celebrate this thing. Sunrise is my new sunset now. Like, it marks my day off. Either way I love them both turn of events. 










    Just a side note, it's really starting to get a little chilly over here. I don't see dramatic fall changes such as "falling leaves" nor pretty colors of the trees yet but I'm guessing I would be obsessing with them pretty soon. 












    Ain't this pretty? I really love the view from my place. Like, without the pulley thing, PERFECT!! Gorgeous blend of colors! 












    I love how dramatic the beams kind of made this seem like I used a filter but you know, I didn't. Anyways, I also actually tried to take pictures with the actual thing but then it just wouldn't happen. Like, it's either you see the sunrise or you see me. Not both. Na uh not happening. Hahaha I hope you all are having a fantastic time. That's all for this update. See yah!!
