Jonbu the baker

i’m so slow

 

O Ye

I secured one of those MGS4 PS3 bundles. There’s so much excitement around the game.. it’s like the first “real” launch title for PS3. It’s gonna be awesome.

I’m re-releasing my room-cleaning video from 2004. Digitally Remastered in higher quailty.

Some notables in this video:
-Steve’s in it.
-Doraemon
-I moved a box.

Gotta go now. What a sunny weekend :)

Tokyo Tower

Tokyo Tower

The Tokyo Tower will serve as a good marking stick to the end of my photo stream from the October 2007 Tokyo stop-over.

My original idea was to process every photo before uploading them. It turns out that I made changes to maybe 3% of them. I think more of them would benefit from some tweaking, but the habit / hobby of playing with photos is a time consuming (and eye straining) one. Besides I’m happy with how the camera dealt with most of them. Maybe I’ll go back and play with some of them in the future.

Catch All

Infomation panel

More pictures still to come from my November trip. Just been sleeping a lot more lately. And in between I upgraded to OS X Leopard. This should go into another post but, currently DoubleCommand doesn’t work with Leopard. Neither does some of Logitech’s control software.

I’ve traveled to Taiwan and Japan enough times now that it’s not a “getaway” anymore. Now when I go there it feels like I’ve always been there. Things are familiar, just like everyday life. It’s very pleasant and casual. Just like when you’re in a dream, you don’t feel like you’re dreaming. It’s only when you wake up that you realize how different things were in the dream.

Ah-Chong Noodle

I don’t know the places well but the food in Taiwan is awesome. Just the environment you eat it in is usually not so great.

11/11

Lots of ads

I just got back yesterday (or so). Photos are gradually being uploaded onto my flickr.

Side notes:
Apple posts 3 new Get a Mac ads
These new ads are awful. Instead of making fun, they just make you go EEK.

New Ceramic White PS3s Just got released. Since it’s Asia only, I might just get one the next time I go.

Oh what, It’s the 12th already? I’m sticking with the 11/11 title.

Gotta write

Since I installed that blog-stats plug-in, I’ve been able to see what search terms lead people to my site. I thought it’d be a nice gesture to answer some of these searches, since, you came here looking for these things.

aluminum imac review

I’ve also seen Aluminium with an i, which I think is the right spelling, since the new iMac does look very European to me.
Aside from what I’ve already wrote, Here’re some more tidbits:
- One day my mac woke up for no apparant reason. Later on I found out it’s because of my neighbour cousin’s bluetooth device.
- The speakers sound better after breaking in (If you believe the “breaking-in” business), but I use seperate speakers.
- I really have no problems with the reflections at all. Some people say they get headaches.

japanese spelling for the name baker

funny teacher stories

My Japanese teacher drove like a maniac. She drove a Lexus.

keyaki tatami room

Japanese zelkova. Nice. Keyaki is also the name of the famouse ramen place in Hokkaido. Go try their Chashu Ramen.

Kudos for everyone that refuses to use the Shift key.
