Hey everyone! I have loads of news to share with you! I graduated from Infini on Sunday, and before that, I took a trip to Kagoshima with my mom and bro. And since we were making our way down south of Kyushu, I decided that we should stop by Minamata on the way there. Partly… Read More Weekend Trip Part 1: Minamata
Today, I’ve validated my NaNo WIP and am officially a winner!! I’m not sure, but I think this is the earliest that I’ve validated the novel. I’ve normally validated only on the last day, so this is a pleasant feeling. This is the first year where I used an outline system, and I think that… Read More NaNoWriMo 2015 Winner!!
… they were still green. So basically on Sunday, my mom and my bro (who are visiting) and I decided to go to Kawachi Fuji Garden (the place I went to during Golden Week). The momiji looked really pretty in the brochure, this was a good season, and Sunday was pretty much the only day… Read More I tried to go see the momiji but…
Ok, I’m a little late this week, but that means I have exactly one week to go. And right now, my word count is at 43,280 which puts me at almost three days ahead of the whole thing!!

My mom and bro came yesterday, and since the Kyudaisai (Kyushu University Festival) is today and tomorrow, I brought them to the Kyudaisai today! And because I have always very conveniently found reasons to travel during the festival, this is also the first time that I’ve been there XD Sadly, I forgot to bring my… Read More 九大祭 (Kyudaisai)
If you have me on Google+, then you know that some time back, I got a piece of paper that says that I have gotten the third grade (三級) for the introductory level (初級レベル) of the 和食検定 (washoku kentei). The 和食検定 is basically a test of your theoretical knowledge of Japanese cuisine. Alas, it does not include… Read More The Story of Eustacia and the 和食検定
So today, I got a job-hunting booklet from the school and I realised that I haven’t given an update of how the job hunting has done since… the suit post, if I remember correctly. It’s not just a schedule/notebook. They have advice too. Anyway, I haven’t been doing much. I had an internship during the… Read More Job Hunting Update: 懇談会 and other stuff
My class ran 3.5 hours late yesterday, so I wasn’t able to blog, but I’m here today, ready to finish talking about the Saga International Balloon Fiesta (SIBF)! Today, I’m going to be talking about the events around and near the SIBF. Right next to the launch area itself were the official food stalls, then… Read More Saga International Balloon Fiesta Guide (Part 3)
And with my week 2 update, I can say that I’m back on track!! I’ve made it to 24076 words, which means that I’m slightly over the target for today! It’s been a tough week – I’ve managed to write a bit more than 1667 per day most of the time, but there were days… Read More NaNoWriMo 2015: Week 2
Ok, it’s time for the afternoon activities! Basically, the afternoon activities differ depending on the day and weather conditions. First, the non-balloon stuff. On two of the days, there was the Honda Bike Trials, which was way too cool. The show was held twice – once at 11 am and once a 2pm. The riders… Read More Saga International Balloon Fiesta Guide (Part 2)
