SOFTWARE, JAPAN, SELF-ACTUALIZATION AND

So Friday’s photo had my lunch from Thursday, and in it were 3 items. Octopus fried with cabbage - very tasty, and a sushi roll that is my favorite rolls from any convenience store selection.
When I purchased the sushi roll at the 7/11 the employee there went through the normal routine of […]

Two quick photos…. here is one thing I am really missing:

and here was my lunch on Thursday… funny story with this too - will divulge its details on Monday:

Short post today, I’m tired. This morning I spent a couple hours going to the immigration office in Tokyo and preparing for my trip back to the US. Now that I’ve got a visa to stay here I actually have to ask permission to leave and come back haha… at least the form […]

The weekend flew by as I prepared for my upcoming trip back to the USA. It’s amazing to think that I have to buy things to ensure my proper survival in the place I lived for over 26 years of my life.
Sunday I played basketball like every past weekend since May. […]

Its Friday again, and time for a peek into my life here in Japan through photos.

Funny advertisement on one of the trains. Suppanda = suppai panda = “sour” panda. Cute.

Empty area of a train station […]

One thing Ive started thinking about is the fact that Im learning new habits. When I first came to Japan so many things were new that I felt overwhelmed. I could write about new things 2 or 3 times a day and still have more to say. However, now that it feels […]

In Japan most people are enjoying a leave from work this week. Ayako only had to work on Monday, and since has been enjoying a nice long week of relaxation. To enjoy her days off she traveled to Maebashi to visit her parents, and left me here alone to work the week away.
I […]

Lunch today was great! On several levels.
First, I tagged along with a group of my coworkers to their destination of choice. When we arrived, I was surprised that it was a restaurant - it was one of those snug places down a rarely traveled street in the bustling cityscape. It […]
