This entry is in respond to Audrey Chow's latest post. 
I thought it would be fun so I thought of having my own version  of it.

I've been up to too many things lately. 
I missed out a lot lately....
And I would like to emphasize that the statement "entering a National Univ in Jpn is extremely difficult (agree only up till here), but graduating from it is easy" ...is not right at all!!

That applies only to Japanese people...

Some parts of my lab work can be seriously dead free.

At one point, I cycled home, ate some bread and brought my laptop to the lab.

Then typed my report until my battery died 3 hrs later…

And eventually I had a conversation with my groupmate …

For three days nights I've been stuck inside the lab doing my experiment ...

Well... not really night ... say... it begins at 1pm and worked all the way till 8pm....prof made us go home early probably because he didn't want us to suffer any longer maybe?

This is something you should see... its really cute. 




I know it is sometimes really inappropriate to embed videos in my blog. This video is basically about the current problem in Japan - Low rate of self-support aka too much imports... The issue i hear in almost all lectures, which is caused by favor of western food, which leads to health problems, and lack of farmers due to aging society etc etc.


I've heard this somewhere.... 
" In a bowl of udon, the only ingredient which originates from Japan is the water for the soup ... "

anyway, I'm working on a few reports and I don't have much time to update this blog at the moment... see ya !

It looks something like this.

YH means Youth Hostel, where we lived. We walked to Akihabara (2km) to save on transportation. Then took a train down to Tokyo station. There we walked around the station and finally made our way to the Imperial Palace. 

Then, (instead of spending on subway), we walked to Ginza (1.2km)
