Shall We Dance?
Posted on February 26, 2008 - Filed Under Things I love | 4 Comments
More than 8 hours of facing computer at work, then another 3-5 hours after work - the usual lifestyle of someone who’s into I.T. (or should I say, internet addicts?). For someone who lives away from home, I’ve jumped into a monotonous lifestyle. So predictable. On rare occasions, boring.
Then an invitation to get […]
Takoyaki Challenge
Posted on February 25, 2008 - Filed Under Food, Friends | 5 Comments
Days ago, Akane-san and I we went to a takoyaki (literally fried or baked octopus) restaurant here in Osaka. I love takoyaki but cooking it is entirely a different story. In that restaurant, a stuff just pour the ingredients onto those takoyaki pans. The rest is up to the diners. Forming […]

Customers First
Posted on February 22, 2008 - Filed Under Experiences in Japan | 5 Comments
The quality of customer service here in Japan never fails to amaze me. The shop attendants are really polite, they (almost) never lie nor shower the customers with half-meant praises just to make the customers buy something.
There’s this stall of cheap bags and wallets at the station and there’s a wallet in there that […]
Happy Birthday, Aiza
Posted on February 21, 2008 - Filed Under Family | 4 Comments
I just translated this…
Me: Happy Birthday, Ai. Are you in the city already?
Aiza: Thank you, Ate. Not yet. As usual, Mama’s not yet ready.
It’s my sister’s birthday today. And the birthday treat she asked: just a lunch date with my family at the country’s famous fastfood restaurant: Jollibee. She’s […]

I am an avid follower of HappySlip’s blog. Recently, she posted this vlog where she shared some “happy tips” and threw these questions:
What makes you happy?
What do you do to make others happy?
I wanted to make a vlog in response to HappySlip’s vlog, but I chickened out. So I’ll just list down my answers:

Bisayang - The root word for this is “Bisaya”

I was really surprised, but was of course, delighted when I heard Mayen was coming to Osaka. She arrived last month but I’m really busy nowadays that I only got to meet her yesterday! We went to Osaka’s electronic gadgets haven in Den Den Town. As always, I almost drooled over those […]

exposé

Exposing more of me by a tag from Elaine:
Are you in a complicated love situation?
Yes, I think so. But maybe I’m the only one who’s making it complicated? mmmm…
Do you hate more than 3 people?
Yes. The number of corrupt government officials definitely exceeds that. But then hate is a strong word. I prefer “irritated”.
The last […]

I was just sitting while doing nothing at our small (sari-sari) store in my hometown when 3 people, obviously a family, approached the store. The family consisted of middle-aged parents and a teenage boy and was obviously sun-baked. They approached the people chilling out infront of our store and I was very […]

Miraculously, there was a heavy snow fall here in Osaka this morning until late in the afternoon. Look at the wide grin I’m wearing. Like almost every person who grew up in a tropical country, I’ve wished of seeing snow and it came true today! I actually recorded two short […]
