I was at the supermarket last week when I remembered that Oreo has released a line of sweets. It’s supposed to be only available this summer, so I decided to look for it and I found that Hershey’s released a line of sweets as well! And because my willpower for sweets is practically non-existent, I… Read More Oreo & Hershey’s Sweets Taste Test
Today happens to be the anniversary of the Church that I’m attending in Sasebo and 平和聖日 (Holy Day of Peace) for the 日本基督教団 (United Church of Christ in Japan – for convenience, I use ‘the Church’ and ‘United Church of Christ in Japan’ pretty much interchangeably in this post, but I am not talking about… Read More (Part Of) Japanese Church History
(This post probably does not have a point) So a while back, I did an AMA on living in Japan on my Dayre. This was one of the questions: Have you been able to make good friends with Japanese? I’ve heard they are notoriously difficult to befriend and can be very fake and insincere. And… Read More Random Ramblings on Stereotypes & Making Friends
Yesterday, my friends and I went to pick blueberries! Originally, we wanted to go on this blueberry + onsen + gelato tour but they couldn’t get enough people so they canceled. Luckily for us, we found a farm we could go to and decided to just go there ourselves. The place was really very ulu though. It’s… Read More Blueberry Picking + Gelato!!!
Last week, I traveled all the way back to Fukuoka for the Lupicia Tea Marche!

So Huis ten Bosch is having a hydrangea festival right now, and one of my friends and I decided to go and take a look at the flowers and try the hydrangea parfait after work. And of course, I brought along my camera and took too many photos. Kinda like this. Amsterdam Square I finished… Read More Hydrangea Picture Spam! (+ Hydrangea Parfait)
Earlier this month, I made my way back to Fukuoka because I was going to surprise my granddad for his birthday. And since it’s pretty much impossible for me to catch the flight if I leave from Sasebo, I arrived in Fukuoka the night before. My main concern was finding a place to eat, since… Read More Why did I not eat here earlier???
On Sunday, I heard that you could see fireflies in Sasebo. Well, I guess they are probably in Fukuoka too, but I didn’t have a car or a license when I was in Fukuoka. So I googled and found out that the last day of his firefly viewing event at Yunoki was on Sunday and… Read More I Saw Fireflies For the First Time!
You know, I could have sworn that I blogged about this already but apparently not. I really apologise for my lack of updates (and I know I say this a lot but I do mean it every single time) but I find that I’m really tired nowadays and my life isn’t that interesting. I wonder… Read More Rose Festival Pictures
Ok, so two days ago (or maybe three days), Huis ten Bosch released its first smartphone game! It’s a role-playing game that was co-developed with GoodLuck3 and it’s called Aerial Legends!! If you take a look at the world of the game, it looks extremely similar to Huis ten Bosch! The most obvious one in… Read More Aerial Legends – Game Based on Huis ten Bosch!
