Random Stuff

Last Friday the principal brought these to school and gave them to the teachers. They're called biwa (loquats in English). They were really good!


The seeds were pretty! :)


This is one of my favorite drinks... :) It's fizzy lemonade and it's cute! :)

On Saturday I went to the outlet stores in Gotemba with some friends. On the way there I played around with a fun setting on my camera.

At Gotemba I bought a shirt and some scented soaps, but the most exciting thing I bought was probably this ice cream! In the US I think Cold Stone is way too overpriced especially when I can buy ice cream at the grocery store that I like better. But here in Japan it was totally worth the money. This was the first mint chocolate ice cream I've had in Japan! :) Oh and the workers sang as they made the ice cream. It was really cute!


On the way back home I played with my camera some more...


Another wonderful purchase from Gotemba was this candy!!!! :) It was fun to eat while I studied that night.

Believe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The next morning I took some pictures of the rice paddies behind my apartment. They look pretty cool when they're flooded.


Oh, and here are a couple pictures of my apartment building. Isn't it so lovely? Haha... at least the inside looks a lot better than the outside!


Then I headed to go to the mall. When I got to Shuzenji I was a little hungry and wanted a snack before getting on the train. So I got a piece of blueberry mousse cake. Mmm! :)

Then I got onto the train. I stood up front, which I hadn't done before. I took a couple videos of the view.






When I arrived in Mishima I walked to a small shrine nearby. Here are some pictures I took along the way.


There was a little creek running by here with stepping stones across it. I'll have to do that sometime.


On the way to the mall I stopped to take pictures of pretty flowers. :)



Soon I arrived at the mall. The following picture was taken in Home Assist (like a cross between a Home Depot, a home store, an office supply store, a pet store, and a car store).

I really don't know... I have no idea what he was advertising... lol.

I took some pictures of the cute animals in the pet department but then was told not to take pictures. :(



Now here are a couple pictures I have taken around Toi the past couple days.
