THE AQUARIUM
and other junk

Word of the Post:

WAKAME - This is the type of seaweed that is used in Miso soup, not nori as I had always believed.  I’ve been using nori in my miso for a while because it’s pretty cheap, but my soup always turned out way saltier than it should be. That’s because nori is salted and dried to add more flavor and make it more edible by itself.  So now you know, if you wanna make a nice bowl of miso, grab the wakame.

It’s been around two weeks since the last time I posted up on this blog……………….

Already?!

Oh well, even if it’s not being read, I wanna write it for my memories in the future, so here I go.

Meeting with friends in Ueno

Maybe I should just say I'm gonna update every week or so.  I don't seem to do enough to update daily.


As I go, I'm going to try my best to make this blog much more organized, that way it's more fun for everyone.

JAPANESE WORDS OF THE WEEK

Ikumen - Apparently something that is becoming more usual for Japan is the idea of men being able to take care of kids on their own.  It's always been a normal concept to think of women as being the person to raise the children, not the men.  Now though, this word has come out.  Perhaps it's a wave of the future??

Ogottekureru - Slang for treating someone.  The formal version would be "Gochisoushite," but when talking about friends treating you out for food, it's more normal to use ogottekureru.

A run down of My Weekend

Beware for all words and no pictures.  This is also a rather boring post, as it's just a rundown of things.

Another Week, another Blog

Alrighty.  Time for some updating huh....  Well today is Monday in Japan, it's about 5:30 PM here.  Classes officially get out at 6PM but I don't have a fifth period class today, so here I am.

Beware, it's another mass of words.  I would say that this one is for my own memory.
