Fake food is cool

Today was Vacation Day 2 and Amemura day. I never noticed it before, but there's a tacky fake Statue of Liberty there. There's such a crapload of restaurants in that area too, Osaka in general, but a few streets in Shinsaibashi/Namba are just all eateries. And nearly all of them have those sweet little artificial food displays.

Namaze? Namaze'd!

First day of vacation. Mission: to get from Namaze station to the riverbank. Status: Accomplished! What a productive day for us. We also went to the Osamu Tezuka Manga Museum in Takarazuka.

Oh, yeah. Holliest and jolliest.

Respecting convenience

Went to the Expoland amusement park in Osaka today. What can I say? (He's my best friend, haha, B10 y'all). Uh, yeah, so there was basically no one in the park but us three. We Wild Mouse'd, Top Spin'ed, Space Salamander'ed and even Carousel'ed away our troubles. Some of the rides were extremely cool (and some shamefully lame, like the big cold room!). They even sell meat in a cup. In a damn cup! It's gross yet wonderful.

Gettin' Woody with it

Yo! Skeezy E givin' a shout out for.... ah, whatever. I can't fake-gangster talk to save my life. ANYWAYS (can I not go off on some pop cuture tangent all the frickin' time?) this is mayyyyybe the best photo *evers*. These are some of my kinders from Woody Town, where I teach every Tuesday. From L to R it's Kouichirou, Hirotake, Yuu and Yuuji. And me in the back! It was Hirotake's last day, so we took a picture. Let's enjoy make a memory.

You say tomato, I say tomato

Saw this dude posing for photos in Sannomiya. Check out his killer bag! Now that's cool. I should've jumped him for it.

***In other news, it snowed tonight. Woo!

Training Day

Yeah, Bec and I had a day off together so we decided to take a train trip. Our sole purpose was to photograph as many train station signs as possible (hopefully with us in the pic as well). Why, you ask? BECAUSE! I think we got a fair number that day. We didn't make it to the Nose railway but we'll save that for another day. Wesley!!

Awwww, flip out!

Apparently, December 5th is the Annual Day of the Ninja. I completely missed it last year so I'll be sure to make some paper shuriken and poison a few Nova teachers (..... to death bro). So, to kick start this grand event, I will post a picture of the deadliest and sexiest female ninja ever (I hear she gets her power from a magical carbonated diet drink). KAGE BUNSHIN NO JUTSU!
