I'm in Sapporo, Hokkaido now since yesterday (in a capsule hotel lol)
Got some work to wrap up tomorrow, will go back Tokyo on Sunday

Indeed.
For those working or studying in Tokyo, most are staying on the outskirts area of Chiba, communiting everyday to the metropolis.
Cheap rents there are the main factor.

Guys, help answer this question for me --> http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?act=ST&f=175&t=741213&st=

I'm just here for the lulz

.. my body still cramp.. another day at the office tomorrow.. urgh...

Work:
I'm in the designing field.
I'm no expert in finding jobs in Japan
Just the same normal procedure anywhere:
- send resume
- interview
- yes or no answer from the company
Its just luck
Top of the ice cream --> with good conversational Japanese language, the chances are higher

Advice on places in Tokyo:
Akihabara: Heaven of gadgets, games and toys
Shinjuku: Heaven of shopping
Shibuya: Heaven of fashion
Roppongi: Heaven of nightlife

You know me since back then bro, I'm in games design

There's one too many 100 Yen shops around my house

Same goes for convenient stores, too many of em

- Family Mart
- Lawson
- 7-Eleven
- Sunkus
- am pm
- etc.

As of 2005, there were 43,667 convenience stores in Japan. Among them, 7-Eleven leads the market with 11,310 stores, followed by Lawson and FamilyMart

I'm going up Mt. Fuji next month



Information: July & August are the best time to climb Fuji-yama
It is also known as the official months that the mountain is open for public to climb.
Though anyone can climb it at any season, it is not advisable except for these 2 safe months.

With my girlfriends

Get the new iPhone from Softbank

I haven't checked it myself, but according to my friend, its supposed to be cheap (if buy the phone itself).

I'm thinking of changing my current subscribe phone to that, and lucky me I'm on Softbank

I went to the World Character Convention at Odaiba

--> http://shrine.lowyat.net/2008/07/22/world-...onvention-2008/

Probably 1/2 hour.
- Takadanobaba is on Yamanote line.
- From Takadanobaba, take that Yamanote line to Shimbashi.
- Get down from Shimbashi and you can get on the Yurikamome station to go to the island

Odaiba is awesome, go there one day

Got Sega Joypolis Amusement Park, that Toyota museum, the Venusport shopping complex, Lego Shop, the Tokyo Big Sight (all anime events held there), etc etc.

I will (went there last December).

Reminder: This year's Comiket 74 will be held on August 15-17 2008, so mark it on your calendar
