今はあじさいの季節ですね〜これは家の近くで見つけたあじさいです（笑） Apparently, Ajisai aka Hydrangea season is just over. I’m not too sure, but by the time I noticed that “hey, there are’s a Ajisai festival”, the places that I wanted to go were closed (they ended on June 30th, which just goes to show how slow I am haha). But, I did take some… Read More Ajisai Photos・あじさいの写真
This post is for +Magdalena Dyguś, who requested I write about the clubs I’m in. Hey everyone! Today, I’ll be writing about the golf club in Kyushu University. Technically, I’m in three different clubs, but Golf is the one I’ve been in the longest (also, it doesn’t really count if you just join the club’s line… Read More Kyushu University Golf Club
… realising that your student’s mother stamps totoro stamps onto your pay envelopes. d’awww, now I can’t throw them away! This semester is the first semester where I’m actually working (more than once a week). It’s pretty interesting having to juggle work, school and leisure time.
Time is definitely flying past me. And one way time slapped me in the face to let me know that this is my third year in Japan (so fast? I still feel like I just came!) was by having my visa come close to expiring. If you’ve been following this blog (hello! Thank you!), you… Read More How To Renew Your Student Visa

Sometime back, I blogged about 船乗り込み (funanorikomi) and mentioned that I was excited to watch my first Kabuki show. Well, yesterday was the day! Thanks to KUFSA (Kyushu University Foreign Students Association), I got to watch 劇団やまもも (gekidan yamamomo – Yamamomo acting troupe) for free at 那珂川 (Nakagawa). Before the show. Once we arrived, we we brought to… Read More My First Kabuki Show!
It’s officially World Cup season! While I don’t really keep up with football or sports, World Cup is one of the few sporting events that I actually watch (the other event is World Cup). Thankfully, NHK streams the matches live, so I can watch them from the comfort of my home. Assuming, that is, I… Read More MacDonald’s Japan World Cup Menu (Part 1?)
Because my life has been settling down lately, I don’t have anything interesting to share (I haven’t gone anywhere interesting). I’ll be writing about my clubs soon, like Magdalena suggested (I’m still deciding on which club to write about, since I barely go to any of them. Whoops). So since I went to watch the… Read More Movie Review: Dimensional Sniper (Detective Conan Movie #18)
Hello readers. We’re taking a break from the regularly scheduled posts about my life in Japan to look at (focus on a few random things anyway) life as a student in Kyushu University. This is really for my juniors like +Inas Wafiya Haryanto (poor Inas, I always tag you because I talk to you the most) who… Read More Kyushu University Year 2
My book review of A Geek in Japan reminded me that I wrote a review of Ghibli Musueum. Once, a long time ago (so about two years?) for another site. Unfortunately, I can’t find that site (if you do know what site it is, please let me know!), but I did save a copy of… Read More Mitaka Ghibli Museum Review
