What I don’t get
Tuesday, March 10, 2009You know what I don’t get? I don’t get how motorcycles have the guts to taunt you even if you’re driving a really big car. Yeah, you’re fast, but do you have shields?
Maybe the reason that there are a lot of motorcycle accidents is not because they’re more prone to it. I mean — motorcycles aren’t the problem. There’s actually a third variable — the motorcyclists! Silly them and their risky behavior.
And there’s one more thing that one of my friends made me realize — have you noticed? When someone walks by beside your car, you automatically check if your doors are locked and then lock it? My friend made me realize how wrong that is. It’s kinda rude for the people walking by — it’s kinda like you expect them to jump your car. Checking if your doors are locked is very VERY important, of course. But why do we only remember it when someone passes by :c
What is our world coming to?
Okay. Back to paper making.
Err. Passed by OVCAA today to submit my application form for the dorm and my flight info. I’m leaving the Philippines on March 27 and I’ll arrive in Nagoya by around 6pm that day.
You know how much my dorm costs? 40k yen a month — plus an additional 11k yen (estimate) for my electric bill. I’m screwed. Anyone have some extra cash?
Lazy Monday
Monday, March 9, 2009I woke up at 5:30 this morning. I love waking up early. I get to be so much more productive. But then that would mean that I have to be asleep at 9:30 — not such a great idea since everyone’s so active at night. Right? Lol.
Anyway, went back to Resources for the Blind for the supposed last visit. But then we learned that it was already their summer vacation so we just had our log sheets signed and then asked a few additional questions and left.
I passed by Gateway to check out cards for a friend’s birthday. Hallmark cards, whattanexpensive. 25something for a small sized card and 40something for slightly big (okay, these are by my standards, shoo).
And I totally forgot about my exam tomorrow ._. Whatta fail. Good thing I texted Joni.
Ugh. One more thing I’m stressing about are flight info. Nyawr. Why do they have to be so complicated! I need to be in Nagoya on April 1 but the earliest flight (which is a connecting flight at that) arrives at 3:40 in the afternoon. But then, I’ve totally missed the opening ceremonies and stuff that I need for my classes there. Uh oh.
Japanese Food Test Run
It’s actually pretty bothersome thinking up of title for posts. Better just leave it blank, no? Since I’ll be leaving for Japan in around three weeks time, I best made use of the time left to hang around with friends.
Hershey picked me up at around a little past 8 yesterday to prepare for lunch at Aaron’s house. We first passed by New Hatchin to buy this sushi boat thing and some sushi as well. New Hatchin is this small Japanese supermarket place where they sell Japanese food and groceries. Since they ran out of salmon, we dropped by Legaspi Market to check out the booths and to see if they’re selling any.
We’re in luck.
So then we went back to New Hatchin to have the sushi cut and then waited around for it.
I SAW HELLO KITTY PASTA! !@#!#%$! And so we left New Hatchin.
Okay. So then lunch. Take note that I did not participate in any of the food preparations — I leave that up to Hershey!
Inari with Salmon Gunkan and Parsley
Kani Salad
Sashimi Platter
Yakiniku (that we had to cook ourselves)
And lastly, coconut sherbet!
I was actually thinking of posting this up at ManilaFoodistas but then it got me thinking that if I post this there, I would have to go in depth regarding preparations and such. And since it’s OMG Kawaii Bento catering thing (although this one’s a test run), I decided against posting it there. Oh well! :> More for this blog!
My trip to the Japan Embassy
Monday, March 2, 2009 
Okay so I got my acceptance letter some time last month.
These days, I’ve been buried in school work that I haven’t been updating my blog much.
But here ya go!

I got my certificate of eligibility last week!
That’s a xerox of the real thing.
The real thing was taken by the visa people.
But then my dad wanted to have a copy, I don’t know why!
I went to the Japan embassy earlier today to apply for my student’s visa. I got there around 10 and I was out in less than 30 minutes. Lols. When I got to the waiting area, my number was already being called. So cool.
Btw, if you have a certificate of eligibility from a school in Japan, don’t forget to have these ready (in no particular order):
1. Certificate of Eligibility
2. Photocopy of number 1
3. Birth certificate from NSO issued within a year
4. Photocopy of your acceptance letter (this wasn’t in the site but they took the copy I provided anyway)
5. Passport
6. Filled out application form with 2×2 picture
7. A copy of the letter you got from your scholarship (if you have one; they asked me for mine — shrugs)
And the guards there were SO helpful and so very friendly!
I was told to go back on Wednesday for the releasing.
Here’s to hoping I get my visa!
Okay — so back I go to staring at my laptop and cramming for my exams!
Book Review: In Sunlight, in a Beautiful Garden
Monday, February 16, 2009
In Sunlight, in a Beautiful Garden is the story of a bittersweet romance set against the backdrop of the Johnstown, Pennsylvania, flod–a tragedy that cost some 2,200 lives when the South Fork Dam burst on Memorial Day weekend, 1889. The dam was the site of a gentlemen’s club that attracted some of the wealthiest industrialists of the day–Henry Clay Frick, Andrew Mellon, and Andrew Carnegie–and served as a summertime idyll for the families of the rich. In Sunlight, in a Beautiful Garden imagines the lives that were lived, lost, and irreparably changed by a tragedy that could have been averted.
Rating: 2/5
With books like this, I want to have a connection with the people in the book. I want to get to know them more. It didn’t really happen to me in this book. I didn’t feel like I know the characters after reading. It felt insufficient somehow.
Although, I gotta admit — I loved the Meditations by Marcus Aurelius quotes!
Just Spiffy
