Blogging!
So difficult when you're working 10 hours a day....
Wanna blog cause theres loads to blog about, but no physical energy to even open up the laptop and start typing...

タカコおばちゃん、ブログ読んでてくれてありがとう。これからはもっと一週間に一回くらいブログするようにします!

i decided tonight that I would blog and post some pics while John shaves his head!

John has been living in Japan for a year now, and we will be living together for a little longer here probably, still thinking of where to go to next... My personal life is GREAT.... Its my working life, thats is a constant source of stress and slight misery.
Its not so much the job though as opposed to the realisation that the job is perhaps not what Im cut out for, and the motivation is gone.... The fact that I dont have enough time to travel to Singapore to see friends that I am beginning to feel further away from definitely is a deal breaker for me. BUT lets put that aside, because perhaps I am just typing away cause Im having one of my moods!

John and I went to Kyoto recently. It was beautiful as it was a weekday, and there were less people than usual, and the autumn leaves were a sight! It was cold but no matter. Sitting in an empty Ryo-anji staring at the stone landscape was very spiritual.



John and infront of our Shinkansen.

Update.... at last.

Hello hello! I am so terribly sorry to those who have emailed me or wrote to me regarding the absence of updates! I have been so incredibly busy with anything and everything, and I know its such a bad old excuse, but believe me, its true! Also, my laptop that I bought in feb, well, its bloody down again, so I have been unable to update really.... using Johns comp now though, which actually works fine, but anyway.... im going on.

appreciate it, though it makes me miss u ladies more! Nic, I must tell you, all those times we did have coffee with ur parents, I thought they were great! So dont worry so muchBig news is that niccole came to Tokyo, and I had an absolute blast with her! We got to see each other a lot more than we had expected so that was fantastic! Thanks to you Nic for taking time off to see me, and also to everyone who gave her so much goodies to pass on to me! Reallly about everything next time! hehe. I loved hanging out with them! And John thinks ur dad and mum look uber cool. haha.
These are pics of us in Inokashira Park, about 15 mins by bicycle from our house. The second is of Nic and I at the Station! Nice angle John! And the third pic is of us in Harajuku!


What else has happened since my last update? Loads really. But right now, im a bit panicky cause i think i might have lost a lot of pics cause of my shitty laptop! That has been stressing me out for a while now!

John and I went to Yokohama Chinatown recently, which was very nice! Good weather, excellent food at Yukis grandmas place!

Anyway, enjoy the pics. Johns comp is about to die so I wanna upload this before it does! take care homies! hehe. I miss u and love u all!

GOTEMBA OUTLET!

Last month, John and I went to the Gotemba outlet! It was really good fun, and even though it was my only day off last month (because Im juggling two jobs at the mo), and it also would have been nice to relax, we went there and it was fantastico. Being the shopaholic that I am, I thought I would end up buying more but I ended up buying..................... one green ring. Whereas John ended up getting shoes, pants, jacket and even a watch! Hehe, anyway it was nice cause we got to see Fuji too!





John with all his shopping bags
Me with nada
Self-explanatory


Gotemba looks like this...Large shopping area with shops better than in department stores!
Next stop.... DISNEYSEA for my birthday!

Still more pics to come, but for now, my new green purchases!



My new green Vaio laptop, and green ipod nano! Yes, my obsession is getting a tad carried away. But hey, its cute, and its functional! Anyway, i love it because it means I can post on my blog once again!


I am still working 7 days a week, (juggling the two jobs), but soon that will come to an end, and I will dedicate my time to D______! I really enjoy working there, with my friends, and the people from the Italian HQ. I even met Renzo Rosso, which was definitely the highlight of this year...... well, that and John coming to Japan of course!
And here, are some pics of sakura near our house that John took
