In air reading

Starting the exodus back for chinese new year. Needed something light to read on the long flight. Thought I drop some spare change for some manga. At least I’ll still have some Japanese to read back in Malaysia. ^^. Do you read on long flights?

An Okinawan Sunrise

Okinawa Sunrise  043

The last day I was in Okinawa, I woke up extremely early to catch the sunrise. After all, it’s not everyday I get to see a sunrise over in Okinawa. ^^.

We got to the beach at about 5am and waited in the dark.

Sexy cup noodle lite

Tags:

Like this commercial. A pretty good mix of sexy and yummy. ^^. Much like what Aya Sugimoto did for PETA, sans the moral issues. Since everyone guessed the “out of focus” photo right, I thought I’ll just upsize the reward from “cookie” to videos of “women stripping for the promotion of cup noodles”. ^^. A breath of fresh air instead of the usual kimutaku commercials.

戸田恵梨香 (Toda Erika) is a Japanese actress. You might remember her as Misa Amane in the movie Death Note: The Last Name.

内田恭子 (Uchida Kyoko) is a freelance announcer and talent in Japan. She can strip while walking the treadmill. Can you?

My next cup noodle is going to be a lite. ^^.

Out of focus

Tokyo Tower

Can you tell what’s in this picture? Care to take a guess? No prizes. Just personal satisfaction and a cookie. ^^. Don’t think you need any clues, so I won’t give any. I suddenly had a thought today. Don’t remember what I was thinking about, but it probably had something to do with work, which has been piling up lately.

“Sometimes things need to be a little out of focus”

At times I tend to wander off, while the conscious me stares into space. Then, everything is out of focus.

Sushi – A Japanese tradition

Tags:

An instructive and insightful video about how to behave and what to expect at a traditional Japanese sushi restaurant. From my favourite comedy duo RAMENS. ^^. A great video to get acquainted with Japanese sushi traditions. Just take it with a grain of salt… or should I say wasabi and soy sauce. ^^
