NC needs some culture like that.

9/4/2007 1:39:19 AM

^^ Have you been to Yoshino in the spring? I'm wondering if it's worth the trek.

9/7/2007 2:41:41 AM

^^^ Wow, I always thought you were a boy.

Yeah, it's a pretty good gig here. I'm giving it one more year before I call it quits and come back to the States.

1/16/2008 6:53:24 PM

It's Al Gore lol.

2/19/2008 8:15:38 PM

I'm looking at eligibility requirements. it looks like i need a degree in teaching. this makes me sad as im in CSC ohh well I guess i'll just find job in my field instead...

2/20/2008 7:02:49 AM

^ No, you just need a degree.

We got about 3 feet of snow here and decided to make a snowman for outside of the shop we live over



3 ball snowmen destroy japanese people, they're used to 2 ball snowmen.



that's the third of a total of 5 days of snow.

2/20/2008 7:42:41 AM

I love snow! i just don't like it when its cold without snow.... mainly because you look like a fool bundled up if theres nos now.
another question I obviously speak English but I know know about eight words of Japanese do they teach me Japanese or do they need me to teach myself somehow before i arrive?

2/20/2008 12:09:33 PM

Wait, why is there a sculpture of Al Gore?

2/20/2008 2:31:04 PM

my brother never sends me any pics.... but he sends me DS games

2/20/2008 4:15:19 PM

^^^ Japanese isn't a requirement but you will starve to death if you don't teach yourself a little before coming over. Nobody in the service industry speaks English really.

^^ The theme of the Sapporo Snow Festival was "Global Warming" this year. I think it would have been better if they built Al Gore with manbearpig myself.

^ The selection of DS games is soooooooooooo much better over here. I was surprised when I went back to Raleigh for Christmas at how small the selection was. I wonder why they don't bring over more DS games

2/20/2008 7:13:12 PM

bwcause this is america and in america if it aint gonna make 6 trillion ina month we aint getting it...

2/29/2008 9:25:28 PM

I went to the snow festival in Sapporo! Good times..... You go to that underground mall?

2/29/2008 11:17:45 PM

^ Yeah it was pretty cool . I want to try to go back up there in the summer. We'll see if I manage to have enough time.

3/2/2008 9:29:12 PM

pics like these make me wanna study abroad.

wish I could

3/2/2008 9:30:28 PM

If you can't, just work abroad. That's what I did. Studying abroad was too expensive and would have screwed up my classes. So now I'm having someone pay me to live abroad instead

3/2/2008 9:38:45 PM

^i wanna head up to Mount Haruna sometime. anyone who watches/reads/plays Inital D will recognize it by the name Mount Akina. Oddly its the only mountain name they changed for the series

3/5/2008 7:17:08 AM

Went skiing in Nagano






This bartender was jamming to his techno whenever people weren't buying beer lol.

Cherry blossoms are out

4/10/2008 4:50:55 AM

Cherry blossoms have been out in most of the country for a while. Hanami FTW.

4/10/2008 7:14:28 AM

the cherry blossoms in Japan are just so much more beautiful than whatever it is they have on campus even though they both look nice.

4/10/2008 8:51:26 AM

I always enjoy seeing your pictures. My fiancee and I may consider going to Japan on our honeymoon. She's been before, but I never have. (I'd love to walk into a shop to buy Macross toys and not have to order them online. LOL. )

4/10/2008 9:46:17 AM

^ Yeah, you definitely won't have a problem finding those in Japan, especially Tokyo

4/10/2008 10:11:12 AM

damn...i used to go to the hirosaki cherry blossom festival every year. good times.

4/10/2008 6:41:59 PM

Obama, Japan.

4/29/2008 4:46:06 AM

^Scary as hell. Looks like my neighbor's front yard.

4/29/2008 7:00:22 AM

hahaha but at least that's in a country where people can actually vote for him.

6/16/2008 1:59:40 AM

^Was the dildo used to mix the drink?

6/16/2008 2:24:42 AM

Yeah, it was at this emergency room themed bar. The drink was called something like, "Missing limb drink" and was served with a dildo

6/16/2008 2:33:43 AM
