New life alert!


Spot the difference. Both contain a "tsuya", one has an extra "ka" and "ma", while the other has a "ya". Otherwise it'S all fairly similar...
Thanks to Yuko and Eugene for giving me refuge while I kick start my future in Tokyo! Posted by Picasa

Bae-chan, Momotaro only looks angry because you've left us! Sure, sure, Tokyo may have "hairstyles" and "hot men" and "nightlife", but OK has... you know... like... peaches. And what about the muscat grapes, now a featured flavor in Yogurt-in A la Mode? You have to love famous grapes with skin so thick it can't be eaten lest it gives you a tummyache. Nothing says Okayama like grapejuice bleeding down your hands while you try to look suave in the shimmering inaka humidity, while simulataneously munching on a bland-yet-pretty momo that cost you more than your entire dinner. Hmm. Maybe Tokyo isn't sounding so bad... miss you! love Gretchen-Maria

Sugoi!

Hello Chris, I found your blog through the grapevine. I am learning Japanese right now looking forward to going back to visit Tokyo in a year. I look forward to reading more about your experience in Japan.

Hey Chris!

Apologies I didn't really say goodbye or attend any events which were of that nature for the gaijin, to be honest, not that great with 'em anyways.

Back in Boston right now and looking for a job and found one which could possible allow me to correspond with the Tokyo office but perhaps travel there every now and then. If you find any American engineering companies located in the Tokyo area, be sure to let me know, I'd like to hit these places up for a job.

Otherwise, you are staying in Tokyo and jobsearching there? What kind of job? Post more details, there are still crazy curious people out there.

Take care, and we shall meet in the future perhaps.

Hey Justin,

Thanks for your comment- do come to Japan! It's a wonderful country! Good luck with the language learning; it'll definitely be a help to you when you get here.

Neil!
I'm probably going to do some teaching and am looking for university admin work as well. As you know my Japanese isn't marvellous, so I'm a bit limited, but I'll get there. Good luck back in Boston!

Gretchen-Maria!
Don't try and replace me at JoyFull. No-one else will shout out inappropriate words when hot waiters are stood at the table...
