Only in Japan...


Wow, what kinda hot dogs are those, you ask?  
Well on the top left, we have the plain hot dogs, and on the top right we have salsa hot dogs. 
But check out what's next: tuna cheese dog.... what the heck is a tuna cheese dog??
it sounds really gross.... and next to that is a bacon egg dog... (why not just make it a sandwich?)
and lastly, double cheese dog.
When I saw that tuna cheese dog, I was like, "EW! Who would get that?!?!" So I said to my mom, jokingly, "Mom, wanna try that one?"

sadly...she was like, "oOo, that looks good." 
She really is Japanese. I forget that sometimes....

What in the www?

I figured it has been a while since I did one of these, "what in the whole wide world" pics. 
So here we go. Today we have more train fails...
Here is the first guy, with hair bigger than his whole head. I can't figure out if he's trying the "ikemen" host look or a jigger look. The shoes and hair call for two different styles in Japan...


This one was really clear. We had the Japanese cholo crew on board. It was weird cause he kept looking at me so I finally just took a pic and pretended like I was asleep.


This was just funny cause no one wanted to sit next to him lol... Those two seats were empty but ppl would rather sit next to me, a foreigner. Maybe they were scared.


Oh my gosh... This is something that happens way too much. Girls wearing short skirts and not closing their legs when they sit. WTH?????? No wonder there are so many pervs here in Japan... Ugh!

Fall in Japan

I love living by a river in Japan. 
I've lived in a few areas in Tokyo, and two of those places have been near the river. 
What's great about it is that they have trees lined up around it that are so beautiful during all seasons. 
In spring, we have the cherry blossoms that cover the river in light pink petals. 
Fall (although the leaves have started falling off) sort of looks like this:




These pictures are old and the leaves already started falling off...
But the colors got deeper and it was SO beautiful. It was too cold to stop and stare for a long time though, so I usually just sneak a peak and walk home =P

Anyway... It's really feeling like winter here, I can't wait for summer!!!

Updates and previews...

This is what I feel like my past months have been...


I haven't had time for anything else really, just school work...school work... and work. lol.

Anyway, I have a few videos I've been working on and just need to finish up a few things.

I had a request on making a purikura video, that I feel so bad that it took me this long to do... and also some nail videos. 



and some of the nails I had done but not edited the videos for...




hope you guys stick around for those... probably in the next few days lol. 

Bwaaaah! Now back to my papers that are due this monday. (-_-)

Xmas...chicken?

We don't really eat turkey here in Japan. In fact, it's really hard to find it and would probably have to go to costco or something to get some. So for Christmas (not that they really celebrate it) they usually just have cake and go on dates with their girlfriend/boyfriend.

That being the case, I was really shocked to see KFC(..yeah I know...) advertising for Xmas meals! Usually even convenience stores like 711 and Lawson are advertising Xmas cakes that you can pre-order. But KFC had this one:

Now the thing that bothers me most is how that chicken is only $56!!! Lol, actually more than that when you add the exchange rate... What the heck Japan! I bet you it's extra small too...

Oh yeah, and also you can buy beer in KFC lol...
that's it on the top shelf...smh...

Finally, some Halloween Pics!




Haha, Ronald totally looks like he's perving at me in the last picture!


Anyway, so it's been a while. Busy with school work and trying to sort some schedule conflicts for next year. But anyway, for now I'm just glad that the semester ends soon (-_-)

Anyway, Halloween was ages ago, and because I was working I wasn't able to take much pictures, but here are some of them:

I was yuki onna, some snow spirit lady that well kill people lost out in the snow or something horrible like that, but when I put a full white face, it looked a lot more scary I think so I tried to tone it down.

Of course, I gotta hold my Rilakkuma. P.S. I didn't have a pure white kimono or yukata, so it looks a bit silly but oh well... It was a kids halloween party lol.






Us being silly, lol. Luv the aloha even though she's dead lol.

Costumes at Japanese Halloween Stores

So I haven't had time to do all I wanted with halloween this year.
I'm so busy with tests, papers, and presentations (not to mention work) that I barely have time for myself.
I really wanted to get my halloween look down but it's so rushed.. and the first halloween party I'm going to is tomorrow at work. I was going as a snow queen/yuki onna (a snow spirit in Japanese that killed people with her kiss/breath?) any who, I hope that I didn't over do it.
I am going in white face paint... and I hope the kids wont all scream and run away...
heck, it's halloween right? lol
anyway, here are some crazy pictures from the halloween section at stores in Japan. This is a wig...titled "Samurai wolf"....... Need I say more??



Now these are some "pants" or underwear... with a tap in the front... uuuuhh....

and this is a boob hat... 


ah, japan, you never cease to surprise me lol
