SAPURI
Sapuri ( I seriously don’t understand this title still)
This drama was about a young lady and a guy who happen to meet each other when the lady finds the guy’s cellphone inside the train. By coincidence, the guy ends up working part time at the lady’s company. They both work at an advertising agency and fall in love. The guy is alot younger than the lady, yet he and she both...
holy crap!

Yamada Taro Monogatari
I finished another drama! This time it was a comedy called Yamada Taro Monogatari (The Story of Taro Yamada). It’s based on a manga and stars Ninomiya Kazunari and Sakurai Sho from Arashi.
This drama was basically a comedy about Yamada Taro, who was played by Ninomiya Kazunari. Taro lives in a very poor situation, yet attends a presitgious private school where it seems like only rich...
Mascots
As much as I really like the mascots from the Olympics, I don’t see any point in having them. They only make money but other than that, what other reason is there to have them? Do they pop on the TV screen and serve as guides for what’s happening during the olympics? No. What’s the point?
I've made my decision!
I’m gonna go for one year. It’ll be sad not seeing my friends and being away from Seattle for one whole year, but I’ve decided that I’m not gonna let this chance go to waste and take it. Thanks for all the advice people! Means alot to me.
Just gotta get the application and documents in on time, and hope everything goes according to my plan.

のだめカンタービレ
So while I was in Japan, I saw a movie called Nodame Cantabile ~the Final Movement~ It’s a continuation of the drama series that really made classical music a huge thing in Japan. More and more kids and adults are starting to like classical music because of this drama series that first started out as a manga series. From what I heard, more and more kids play musical instruments instead of...
tough decisions
*sigh* I’ve been stuck over something so simple that will affect my life for the next year. I’ve been getting ready to turn in my application for study abroad next year at Sophia University (Jochi Daigaku) in Tokyo, Japan. For a long time, I’ve been wanting to study abroad my sophomore year because I want to be here at SU when I finally start taking classes for my major. My...
my j-dramas
I’ve always liked watching Japanese dramas online for a long time. It’s one of my favorite things to do and it’s one of the things that relieve stress and make me happy. So starting 2010, I thought that I shouldn’t just let the excitement go to waste so to preserve it, I’m gonna blog it.
-My first j-drama of 2010 wasn’t a series but a New Years special that...
what i'm saving for...
SPRING BREAK IN HAWAII! though it’s not 100% final, this is what I’m hoping to do for spring break. another idea i had would be to go skiing with my parents in vancouver or something, but that would be really expensive for them, but surprisingly my dad (long time ago) said he’d consider it. whichever one will be fine but I know I gotta start saving either way.
another thing...
