after a year of admiring mt fuji from afar, i finally climbed up the mountain a couple of days ago. it was a 12-hour climb/descent from morning to evening, so i didnt get to watch sunrise from the peak.

here's the view from the foot of mt fuji:

view from halfway up (~2500m):

and the crater at the peak. remember that fuji is still a sleeping volcano

funny story. we had a place to stay at 7th station but we wanted to go to the top, so we started climbing at 9pm. but by the last 8th station rest house, my friend had horrible altitude sickness, she was vommiting. so we stopped. she rested there while we rested outside in the cold! no way im gonna pay another 5k yen per person for the night tongue.gif
you guys started from 5th station fujinomiya? i guess altitude sickness affects ppl in different ways. for me i always loose my appetite at high altitudes. same thing happened at mt kinabalu

Japanese Onsen must be taken naked, no towel, no swim trunks, although this is common and accepted in Japan,
how do you overcome this oddness initially?  tongue.gif
yeah, at first its awkward, but you wont be the only one who will be naked there. all got the same 'equipment' mah, no need to shy wan...(unless you're going to mixed onsen, then that's another matter)

My friend told me, she just woke up because of a heavy earthquake about 15 minutes ago.
Anyone felt it? biggrin.gif

yep, i felt it alright. woke me up from my sleep at 5am. it was the longest and most 'goncang' tremor i felt since coming to japan.

How do you tell if an mp3 was legally (e.g. you own the CD) or illegally ripped? I believe you can't.

I'm sure all of us keep sensitive info on our laptops.

My biggest fear used to be someone stealing my laptop and then booting/ghosting the HD to obtain all my personal data (e.g. financial data/logins etc).
This is quite easily done.

That's why I use (my company mandates these):
1) Encryption software like TrueCrypt which not only uses AES (or better) to encrypt data but also hides the drive if you so choose. Nobody will know that the partition is there. I always hear about Malaysian cops carting away computers for forensics - if perps use encryption, there's no way the mata will be able to crack
2) I also schedule a freespace wipe (I'm paranoid) with a 7-way DOD algorithm with a program like Eraser or Disk ReDactor.
3) My smartphone's also encrypted and I can request a remote "poison pill" be sent that nukes the phone.
