Someone Stole my Bike in Japan

Image
I know this is news to everyone but yes. Even a safe place like Japan has its flaws. This kind of stuff doesn’t happen everyday though so I guess luck isn’t on my side when this thing happened to me. Anyways, let me tell you my story. Not my bike but this is where I parked it. They should be reliable for my bike! ... Kalma.  I usually ride my bike on my way to the station/work. One night (night shift), I left my bike at this bike parking service (like I always do) and went to work (like I always do). When I return in the morning, it’s gone!! I’ve heard stories where the culprit actually return the bike the other day to its rightful owner or just returning it where they got it but man, I’ve waited months and still nothing. I don’t know what to think anymore. Sometimes they say that the culprit probably missed the last train and can’t go home so they find an unlocked bike, use it, and return it the day after. Or maybe someone’s too drunk to walk or something. I don’t effin know. So y...

Hotel Hopping!

Salad for starters. Bread! Nothing stood out though. The kare pan was nice! The scrambled egg was delicious.  Probably my favorite. I had like 3 of this roasted stuff. Or 4. I can’t remember.  Selfie!  This is what delicious looks like.  Yas! I went with two of my titas from work. This is what my barkada looks like here in Japan.  Cakes! I was so full at this point but you know, I have two extra stomach for one, dessert, two, Kare rice! I didn’t see any Kare Rice in there but anyways. Salty. But. Good. Risotto goodness. Also, art. Why is there art?  My barkada.  We went to Prince Pepe in Shin Yokohama.  We then went to the hotel in front to kind of relax. We also had cakes! Fancy cakes.  Mine I had coffee which was okay.  Tita Linda shared some hilarious stories from when she was younger. Oh my. She reminds me a little bit of my lola who is now in heaven. Mostly because of their age but yeah.  Second Hotel I had fun! I didn’t think ...

Nihonjins!

My Japanese friends! Besides the money that my part-time job gave me, it gave me friends. Solid 5 friends that I won’t forget forever! Side dishes! Oh why are they so good? Baba club! We’re old. It’s nice to just casually eat with these two. Work as you know is always a lot of work but when we’re out, we have fun! Meat all day everyday!  Korean pancake! :)  I was so full I can’t even! Always like this when we eat out!  Yummy! I can’t wait to be out with these girls again! They’re crazy but they’ve been my wall for quite a while now. Will post about this soon again!

Friendship Day! 2018

Image
Yasss I went. Alone. Why? I don’t know too. Friendship day and I wasn’t even feeling friendly. But I went anyways.  They have this dog training show. I actually wasn’t able to see much of it. But okay!  It’s kinda cool.  It’s just good to know that when it comes to it, most of it, we have each other’s back. Feeling a little more friendly there. LOL. So...I went to Yokota Air Base in Fussa. Kind of very late in the afternoon coz I was just after the fireworks. I should have went earlier though coz I kind of missed the bands.  Cool! Can I just say that back in the day, it’s dad’s wish for me to join the military/police force. I wonder how my life would have turned out if I really did.  I was actually supposed to work inside the base instead in Harajuku but I guess they had a problem with the final inspection so yeah. All good. Got a call from my manager in Harajuku literally after my interview here in Fussa. Told you guys about that already, I know.  They par...

Morning at Miurakaigan

Image
Sweaty. So when I was in Yokosuka, on a fine summer day, I decided this would be the last beach I’d go for the season.  But first, breakfast. I don’t usually eat apple pie but that day is an apple pie kind of day. Also, it's a long walk from the station. Actually.  It was very calm when I went. I think I was there before 7 so not a lot of people still. There were people though, few people there.  beauty I like the sound of the waves. Calms me down. But you know that already. I actually didn't do much in here. Walked. Walked a lot in fact.  A little tiring. Carried my sandals for a while and walked barefoot. Coz who goes to these places in high heels, right? ME.  MiuraKaigan Glittery I’ve actually planned on going to this beach before. But last year I went to Zushi Beach instead of here which is kind of stupid because this Miura beach is number 1 on the list. Also, probably not a place for me to tan because just by looking at the size of it, it’s probably very po...
