New Ruri Figure

Picked this up at Mandarake in Namba today. I was surprised they actually got a new Ruri figure in.

Mandarake is a second hand anime / manga / action figure / games / consoles / collectibles store. With everything from little toy cars to life size statues.

While we were in Namba I also picked up the newest volume of the Yotsuba& manga (in english anyway, vol. 6), and some Japanese flashcards. I’ll learn some Japanese eventually… heh.

New Chat Setup

Recently got a stand for my psp. For now I’ve got it setup vertically holding my contact list and chat windows. Frees up desktop space nicely, which is an issue since my widescreen is back home in Australia ^^.

Excuse the quality, camera phone and all. What do you think?

Japan 2009 – Update #5

Well, it’s been another 2 months since I last updated so I decided to write another note today. Adam and I have been in Japan for just over 9 months now!! This means that we’ll be home in less than 3 months… o.O I’m so excited but a little bit scared at the same time… things will be very different when we get back…

So what have we been up to since my last note? Well, we saw summer “end” (it’s still pretty warm even though it’s October now)!! I can’t wait until the weather starts to finally cool down though… I’m really looking forward to that! Meanwhile, when we get home, it will be summer again… *sigh*
