i am in the middle of the first half of holiday season here but i am spending usual weekend. anyway, to compete with the stuff i recently listened, this is what i thought of. sounds like musculine yet feminne but overall energetic and bit cheesy. hahahahahaha!! that'll show you!!! the point is, that you have to avoid break parts without beats.....
this time, japanese tea cups. although they (except the middle one) are meant to be used for drinking tea, we use them when we drink sake (japanese rise wine), especially hot sake. those are not antiques but the middle one which is from 60's hand painted.
i went to buy a cup of noodle for lunch during the lunch break as i did not have much cash in my pocket today. so, i went to a supermarket near my company and bought one. i should have realized that but i went back to the office and realized that i did not have chopsticks..... no one had extra chopsticks, so what i did was... i put the noodle in my storage and skipped lunch. if i went to a convenience store, they would give me chopsticks but i preferred cheap price. and this is what i got. so i had to skip lunch. what a day.....
i drink coffee everyday. in fact, i start the day with a cup of coffee. but i barely drink straight black as i tend to drink too much and by the time i realize that i drink too much, it's too late and my stomack turns kinda upset. also, whenever i am hungry (like now), i drink coffee too.
i use coffee machine to make coffee but because it's kinda difficult to pour exact amount of water into the machine and put exact amount of ground coffee beans into it everytime i make coffee, coffee is different everytime i make. but this time, i made it right, and that's because i decided to write this entry. hahahaha, whatta simple guy i am. my wife drinks coffee too, and usually, she makes coffee.
anyway, since we both drink coffee, we have many kinds of coffee cups, and more than half of them are antiques (like 50s to 70s). we bought some of them at thrift stores while we lived in the states, while some of them were from ebay auction (u.s.), second-hand store in japan, and some of them were from our friends. we still have some more cups. so, i will probably post them next time.
i think i am an average man 'cause whatever i want would be on the mainstream which means so hard to get..... on the flip side, things that i want will be on the mainstream though. i am in love of posession which never fulfilled (as i barely get what i want). previously, i wrote that with limted budget, it is kinda difficult to get but another reason is that i dunno where to get them (oops!).
because of above mentioned reasons, i just look whatever i want on the magazines, websites, etc. and imagine what if i could have them..... so, it's like delusion. it's one of my favorite though.
there were sneakers that i wanted to get. i found them on the german site. i had been checking the site every day and confirmed that the sneakers i want were still on their list. but yesterday, i found out that my size were sold out..... i regreted not placing an order but they were kinda expensive for me (including shipping and handling cost for int'l shipping). it's been really getting tough to get stuff i want with limited budget.....
so, i haven't bought anything expensive but money in my bank has gone to someone's pockets, so mysterious. well, obviously, this is because i am spending money for something in daily basis but for what??
this is a souvenir from china i got from my friend. as you see, this is marlboro (the one i smoke) but the package design is far different from its original design!! it's so..... chinese!! i really like the design. those horses are drawn by famous chinese artist. as far as horse drawing is concerned, this artist (i forgot the name) is the number one in china, that's what i heard from chinese acquaintance.
this is another one i got. it's a sterling silver zippo. an acquaintance of mine recently quit smoking, and he collected zippos especially those sterling silver ones. as he quit smoking, he no longer needed zippos, so he decided to give those away, instead of selling them!! what a great gift!!
whenever we wanted see dvd, we did it with pc as we did not have the player connected to tv..... we have thought about getting one but for some reason (sorry, i lied. actually, no reason). one day, we talked about dvd players and told them that i did not have the player. one of acquaintances said that he would give it to me as he had three of them.
it was bit rainy but overall it went alright. but i must apologize for playing illest stuff in full volume (not my intention though) for the last several tracks as some people covered their ears (oops!). for those who like bit of noise, electronica, dub, downtempo (including abstract stuff), house, bit of jazz + rock + ska, live percussion, etc. (check out the list below), this is the place!! but the you have to figure out where the place is by the above picture.....
it is sunny day today (i missed the sun so much!). so i took a picture of flower in the garden. i don't know what kind of flower that is..... garden is sooooo messed up now. gotta do something.....
i went to have dinner and drinks with my boys last night. i barely go out for dinner except for the occasions such as welcome/farewell parties, so you could say this is rare case. recalling those parties including last night, i have been more and more like ending up having sweets and hot tea for the finish. anyway, thanks for the dinner!!
on the way back home, i stopped buy at a record store where i usually buy records at and had chat wih the owner who recently became pap for a while and bought some records (see picture above and list below).

i was pretty much drunk but i guess i picked up pretty well, no? it is raining (again) now..... it's like we are in the rainy season. i wonder what's up with the weather recently.
