Like I mentioned in my previous post, one of the things I want to blog about this summer would be to review the different language sites and apps that I’m using. Not all of them will be Japanese-focused, but more of a language-based thing in general. Of course, if there are Japanese versions, I will… Read More Language Apps/Websites Review: Lang-8
A while back, one piece of news that went viral was about this cafe in Japan that placed stuff toys next to single diners. Well, I’m pretty sure that the cafe in question is the Moomin Cafe, and that you don’t have to eat alone to get the stuff toy (as seen by my nihonjijyou… Read More Moomin Cafe Review
On the flight from Fukuoka to Singapore, I was really, really looking forward to watching Maleficient. Unfortunately, they haven’t gotten it yet, so I ended up watching a couple of movies that I didn’t even know about. One of them was 白雪姫殺人事件 (Shirayuki hime satsujin jiken – Snow White Murder Case). Screenshot from the official site… Read More Movie Review: 白雪姫殺人事件 (Snow White Murder Case)

So last Sunday, I was invited to wear Yukata and eat Kakikoori (Japanese shaved ice) by the Kimono shop. Since I don’t have a chance to wear my Yukatas very often (and I’m pretty terrible at putting them on myself), I jumped at the chance. “Dark” photo This time, I chose to wear the Yukata… Read More Yukata Time!
I was going to post about the Yukata thing today, but then I was looking through my photos and realised that I never blogged about the Rilakkuma chocolate! I bought (and made them) a while back, while they were on sale. Let me show you the box, which was way adorable. *high pitched squealing* While… Read More Rilakkuma Chocolate Making Set (Review. Sorta)
