Hey guys. So many of you may be wondering what is up...well.......sigh.....in a hurry so...vamoose!

for the time being, to force myself to work on other projects, I have moved to a new service.  Said service is Squarespace and it's pretty nifty.  The reasons why can all be seen there, so why not go visit it and find out for yourself!  I'll even link ( Read more... )

Two Occurrences of Ocular Curiosity*

Morning folks. Today I bring you not one, but two tales that all occurred within the last 3 hours( as of the morning of April 16th).

The first is an uplifting tale of a boy (me) and a bus (not me. but a bus).  It is guaranteed to move you to....something.
The second is a ridiculous tale of a boy (me) and 50 Cent ( ( Read more... )

Hi there! Welcome Back.

You didn’t think I would do it on time, you? You probably thought I was going to put it off…or forget about it entirely! In fact, it’s almost like I wrote one mega entry and split it into tw…..

Have you noticed it?

There’s a new C-Bomb floating around.

And it’s not the C-Bomb you are thinking of. It’s not even all that new..in fact I wager usage of this word is at least 90 years old. Chances are you hear it everyday…and in fact use it yourself. I know I have.

However, enough is enough. It is time to end this. And I shall…with today’s ( Read more... )

 So I finally got those tickets.

Yep…the tickets.

What tickets? Tickets to the Hall and Oates 2009 Tour: Milk and ‘Stache Dynasty?

“Prologue-inns”
I am rather strange and insane.

But if you know me (Nick by the way…hi!), then this is not news to you. How many sane people do you know who grill their pants? I rest my case.

Over the years, I have actually gotten less insane. Now many of you may debate this, but it is true. I have become a more sane individual. A lot of it I ( Read more... )

Techno-Lust

So the awesome thing about having a big old cell phone, is the fact that…..well...it's big.

It’s heavy. It’s a behemoth.  If you get mugged on the street, the pickpocketer will laugh at you, the pickpocketee, and shove it back into yon pocket.  Then, she will pat you on the head and run off laughing.  The pickpocketer is a 17 year ( Read more... )

“Nick…are you tired today?”
I raised my right eyebrow 2 cm which conveyed the “I am perplexed” emotion.  I was actually feeling quite spry.  I let the look linger for long enough for Ms. Shirakawa to understand that I was perplexed. She took note and responded by saying.

“You look tired this morning.”
This time I raised both my eyebrows, which ( Read more... )

This is How is Starts

“Good morning”

“え？”

“Good morning.”

“あ～”

“Ah?”

“あ～”

“….Good…morning.”

“あああああああ”

“…Good….morning.”

“あ”

I wish I could say that this was a transcript for:

1. 
   A conversation with a student who is currently getting dental work done.
   
2. 
   A conversation with several different students.
   

But no. I cannot say that. For this was a conversation with a ( Read more... )

Random Thought.............

Phrase Nick hates in 3......2.....1....

People change.

It's obvious....one of those things that need not to be said. But the fact remains that it is true. People do change.

For me....living in Japan...it's odd to see people change when they live thousands of miles away. Surreal doesn't really even begin to ( Read more... )
