Complete Randomness

Here are a bunch of random things that haven't really fit into any of the other posts I've done. The picture above is of a temple I walk by on my way to the station or Family Mart.

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.
