Last weekend I celebrated Halloween. Well, sort of. In the past few weeks I've picked up some Halloween stuff from 100 yen stores, including the stuff in the picture above which came from Daiso.

Matsuri! A Small Festival in Iwata
On October 12th Jonathan and I were invited to a small neighborhood festival in Iwata. Some neighborhoods in Iwata had their festivals the weekend before (the same weekend I went to the Backstreet Boys concert) and I had wondered what they were about.
It was a nice day, so Jonathan and I biked from his apartment to the festival. It took about an hour and a half.

Backstreet Boys in Hamamatsu!
This past weekend I went to a Backstreet Boys concert in Hamamatsu! I bought the tickets back in early July and knew about it for a while before then so I had been looking forward to it for a long time!
Earlier this year one of my roommates from college posted about going to a Backstreet Boys concert in her city in the US. I knew that when BSB toured they usually went to Japan so I checked online for tour dates. I got really excited when I saw one in Nagoya, a city less than two hours away from Iwata (an hour with shinkansen). It was on a weeknight, but it would work out. I figured that had to be the closest one but then I scrolled down and saw one in Shizuoka. Only about an hour away! Then I saw the details of that concert and saw that it was actually in Hamamatsu! It was Shizuoka prefecture, not Shizuoka city! I looked up where the concert would be held and saw that it was really close to my boyfriend's apartment! It just kept getting better and better! :)

Leopalace Apartment Video
I took a video of my apartment back in August (between climbing Mt. Fuji and going on my Osaka/Hiroshima trip) but hadn't gotten around to uploading it to YouTube. I finally did that today so here's the video:
Overall I really like my apartment. I would like to have a bigger kitchen but I still prefer this kitchen to the one I had in Toi. That one had stained walls and was just really old. Oh yeah, and cockroaches every once in a while. I haven't seen one yet here... I hope it continues that way!
