FUROSHIKI!

Have realised that this blogs become a bit negative lately so thought I'd tell you all about today which wasn't anything special, but one of the most relaxing days I've had here.

Went for a walk to the other side of the tracks (I love walking around Tokyo backstreets) and got myself two very cool Furoshiki (silk Japanese napkins that are folded to carry things). Have been fasinated with furoshiki since I read the latest issue of Kategayo (the best magazine about modern and old Japanese culture!) and have decided to use furoshiki for as much as I can!

Made myself a nice late with the new espresso machine (come on over and try it if you'r e ever in Ochiai Minami Nagasaki!) and watched the latest ep of the xxxHolic anime series which really rocks. Can't wait for the second season of Tsubasa Chronicle to start airing next week.

About to do some Japanese practice and maybe do something for dinner tonight?

Perfect weather, nice people out today and am enjoying life.

Oh, and the garden on the balcony is blossoming nicely (got the only balcony in the whole building qith plants on it).

Sorry if you're reading this and havn't heard from me in a while. I'll be going through a pile of emails tonight and doing some texting.

Stay in touch! (funny from me I know).
