Happy New Year everyone! I hope your 2017 is full of happiness and laughter. Nothing much to report on my end – I’ve been working on my graduation thesis, which seems to hate working more than me because it has crashed my excel and word a number of times. But I have to finish it… Read More Happy New Year!
Much like last year, we had our inzemi (although it seems like I didn’t blog about it). Last year, the Industrie 4.0 team didn’t take part, but this year, the Pokemon Go team did (although the fourth years didn’t have to present). The Pokemon Go team made a lot of good progress and I’m very proud… Read More Inzemi 2016
Merry Christmas everyone! I hope you all had a great day yesterday (and are having a good boxing day today). I went to Church and had a baking class yesterday, so I had a good Christmas! The cake I baked: I’m planning to work on my graduation essay over the new year break. What about… Read More Merry Christmas
I finally managed to go to Yanagawa (with my family)!! Unfortunately, it rained the whole time, so you can expect some rather dreary (but hopefully still pretty) pictures. For our trip, we decided to get the Nishitetsu tokumori ticket that includes the train tickets, the boat ticket, and a lunch set at one of the… Read More Yanagawa
Ok, I’m back with the second part about my trip to Itoshima. In the previous post, I stopped after our visit to the salt factory. So after we had our fill of the ocean view and salt pudding, we decided to head towards Meoto Iwa (夫婦岩). Finding this on Google Map’s was a little bit… Read More Exploring Itoshima (Part 2)
One weekend, my mom decided to rent a car and explore Itoshima, a place that she’s wanted to go ever since she heard about the oyster huts. As the navigator, I found a really good blogpost by Fukuoka Now that we (somewhat) followed. And in an even greater stroke of coincidence, the car rental company… Read More Exploring Itoshima! (Part 1)
Here’s a food-filled post (because I’ve been strangely unmotivated to blog lately). Last week, I went for my second wagashi class! This is what we made: The flowers are 水仙 (suisen), and the white thing is 花びら餅 (hanabira mochi). Both are new year sweets, or so I was told. My flowers aren’t very good though… Read More Wagashi Class + Line Cafe
Because my mom and brother are here, I’ve been going out a little bit more than normal. So one day, we managed to go to Yusentei – a garden located somewhere in Fukuoka. We knew about it because the tourism portal kept recommending it, but getting there was pretty difficult. There are no close trains… Read More Yusentei Garden (友泉亭)
One year and one week ago, I published The Nutcracker King, which marked the start of my self-publishing journey! To be honest, I had intended to write this on the exact date, but I forgot when I started self-publishing. I definitely haven’t “made it” (whatever “made it” means), but I do want to write a… Read More One Year Publishing Anniversary
I’m back! This week somehow is my presentation week (luckily I’m not actually speaking, just part of the team), so I’ve been rather busy with our analysis and helping brainstorm how the presentations should go. And asking the other teams lots of questions :p Anyway, let me just finish the Sasebo recap. After our cruise,… Read More Sasebo Part 2 – Kujukushima Aquarium+Food
