A Super Funny Japanese Commercial!
I haven't seen this commercial on TV yet, but someone posted about it on Facebook today. I've seen a lot of crazy commercials here, but this is definitely one of my favorites. It's so awesome that it deserves a blog post of it's own. Enjoy! :)

Random Food in Japan
Here are a bunch of pictures of food I've eaten in Japan. They're not in any particular order and there's not much to say in general, so I'll just write captions for each picture.
The sakura marshmallows were too cute to pass up!

Golden Week!
May 3rd through the 6th was a four-day weekend because it was Golden Week, which is when several holidays are around the same time. On Friday, my boyfriend and I went to a store called Pick Up with a bunch of used stuff and I got a bicycle! I keep it at my boyfriend's apartment so that we can ride bikes around there and I can ride it to the station.
That evening we drove towards the mountains just because we wanted to. We didn't drive up the mountains because it was getting dark, but we will do that someday. After that we went to Ichino Mall in Hamamatsu.

Tokyo! Sky Tree and Shinjuku Gyoen
Last weekend I went to Tokyo. We had a three day weekend, but we only spent one night in Tokyo to not spend too much money. On Saturday morning before we left I ate some green tea flakes for breakfast. They were ok but not something I'll buy again. I didn't have much milk so I just had a small bowl and was still hungry. I had some ponzu chips that I had bought the night before so I tried them. Ponzu is a Japanese citrus flavored sauce. The chips were good! They smelled like salt and vinegar chips but didn't taste like them. They tasted pretty normal but had a bit of a citrus taste.

Kawaii!!! Cute Stuff I've Bought in Japan
I like shopping and in Japan it's even more fun. There's so much cute stuff everywhere! And the clothing fits me better here! The picture above is the result of a morning shopping in Hamamatsu. The shirt in the bottom left corner is just a boring work shirt (at least it is pink though!), but the other is a super cute top from Cecil McBee. I couldn't resist! The magazine came with a really cute Liz Lisa case (I thought I had taken a picture, but I can't find it). Many magazines here come with "free" things like that. The bowl, fork (Rilakkuma design!), and cup (Little Twin Stars!) all came from Kiddyland. The book is the first volume of the Yotsubato manga. I found a study guide for it online so I can use it to study Japanese. I would have bought a newer one that's not available in the US yet, but I think I'll start with the first one so I can use a study guide.

Hamamatsu Flower Park
Yesterday, my boyfriend and I went to Hamamatsu Flower Park. Before heading out, we ate lunch at McDonald's. I had Chicken McNuggets with Ume Sauce, which is plum sauce. It was nice and tangy! I still prefer barbeque, but it was a good change.
