Malmo , Sweden




















It takes only 15mins to get to Malmo by train from Lund.
There are shopping mall, restaurant in this town.

I joined an amazing program in the last evening after the class that all people have to cook in the real chef kitchen of the beautiful restaurant, we all wore funny huge chef hat and cooked each meals according to the recipe, Me and my french coworker were in charge of making meringue for 20 people. This is my first time to break so many eggs and whipping till become stiff, :D it was very fun!

I figured cooking is soo much fun!! I will start learning how to cook all kinds of meals in my free time.

I liked the nice town Malmo, it would be very fun to walk around more and find nice bars,clubs there. :)

Jet lag, back in Tokyo from Lund,Sweden










It's 2:38am in Tokyo right now, and I am having jet lag,can't sleeeep...ahhhh I hate it!
I arrived to Narita this morning, and as soon as I got home, just past out on the bed till 5pm in afternoon,and now I keep awaking in midnight :D It's really hard to struggle sleeping, and I already gave up.

I spent in Lund , Sweden for 2weeks, It was snowing a lot and -2 degrees when I left. The pic is the view from the window of the hotel!
I felt like I was in the freezer all the time.Welcome to snow white Sweden!!

I finished my training course in first week, It was absolutely wonderful experience.

My trainer asked each one of us at the last day of the course, what is your "diamond" you wish to bring back home from this course? just one diamond!

I had so many thing I would like to bring back home though, since I had to choose just one, I chose the great relationship which I got through academy course.


BTW, I used Austrian airlines, stopped by Vienna to Copenhagen to Lund,Sweden. It was very long long flight but still comfortable enough. I didn't get horrible experience like last time :D

Always good to be back home, but still missing one thing very important here in Tokyo.

HOOTERS Tokyo



The first HOOTERS in Japan was opened on 25th/Ocotober in Akasaka. I saw many people were at second floor of Tokyu Hotel lounge, when I passed by last time towards to Akasaka-Mitsuke station, but I didn't expect that we have to wait for 1 hour to get in... :D

The restaurant was so crowed, I liked the american junk food, loud music and cute hooters girls :))

I went with my coworkers from previous company, They seem to enjoy checking out all hooter girls in the restaurant. Thanks for guys for the wonderful Thursday night!!

Why there is no HOOTERS guys version, they can hire sexy buff guys to serve girls customers. :)

It was fun to check what HOOTERS Tokyo look like. Everyone have a great weekend.

Japanese discount site - PONPARE!

I found the online advertisement of PONPARE, when I opened up my webmail account, I thought it's nothing new and a bit obsolete, there were so many other website aim at running discount shop/coupon, etc.

But PONPARE has something make users excited and encourage to buy even a small thing.
Since the site is designed very simple,not too cool taste so that easy to check how much discount from the original price, and there is a time line for each sales, most of campaign is very short like for 2days.

I bought "Haagen-Dazs, 2small cups for 100yen" - it's 84% off from original price , 660yen :P
Nothing new, but just for fun, hope you like it.

Grooveshark for iphone


I've been waiting for so long Grooveshark on iphone is coming out, and was wondering why takes so long, it's just changing interface and stuff to adjust for the screen size etc ..and found this statement in Grooveshark official website.

"Unfortunately at this time, Apple is unwilling to work with Grooveshark to approve our application. This means that iPhones are unable to download Grooveshark for iPhone unless they are jailbroken. "

Again..apple silly behavior..hm :(

Long story short, you can download Grooveshark of iphone version from Cydia, it works very well on my iphone, 3G. I use oldest one so should be better quality on iphone 4? let's try and see. ;)

Just access to Cydia and search by "Grooveshark" and install it.

You might want to create an account on Grooveshark.com beforehand, so that you can just log in and access to your favorite list on iphone.

The application is very light and easiest way to listen bunch of music during commute by free.

Here is more info :
