I finally fixed my computer over the Xmas/New Year break! Hopefully I can keep posting more regularly in 2012 than I have in the past.
GOOD NEWS EVERYONE!

WTF JAPAN?!?!?!
Sorry I’ve been too busy, lazy, hot to do real updates but this makes up for it hahaha
A friend of a friend took this pic on the Yamanote line in Tokyo
CHIMP x POO
I almost forgot I had this video. Here are some chimps we saw at Nagoya Zoo in Golden Week.
One of them grabbed our attention by making fart noises with his mouth, then another one started eating poop behind him.
Enjoy!
B-DAY CAMPING @ LAKE SHIBIREKO
Here’s another time lapse video I made of our BBQ/Camping weekend at Lake Shibireko to celebrate Yoshio and Serina’s birthdays
GOPRO x GOCHISOYA
I recently picked up a GoPro camera and thought I’d test it out by trying a time lapse video while drinking at a local izakaya (Japanese style pub).
This pub is particularly awesome as it’s all you can drink for 2hrs for like 1000yen ($10-15 depending on the exchange rate).
I’m actually headed back there on the weekend so I might make another one.
Unless my computer goes to shit again I should hopefully have plenty of stuff to post in the near future.
BEST OF GODZILLA!
If you love the music from the Godzilla movies then this is for you!
TOUCH IT!
I was in Tokyo yesterday showing some friends from Australia around. We stopped by Akihabara to check out the electronics stores and the maids and freaks etc.
Anyway in the station they had this touch screen vending machine, I just had to try it!
I’m told that they have cameras built into the machine that detects the age and gender of the customer and recommends drinks for them, which is cool on one hand but who wants a vending machine telling them what to drink?
I saw a little girl use it before me and it had an animation of the drink she chose falling through a cloud into the box where the drink lands, but when i ordered my drink nothing happened.
LOZZZIMO!
I fell asleep at a friend’s house and when I woke up they’d put this Asimo blanket on me and were about to take a photo hahaha
NEW JEANS
A while back I stumbled across some sites online with people raving about selvedged “dry” denim.
For those that don’t know it’s basically woven a different way and the colour isn’t washed out or treated.
So when you buy them they’re a dark blue but with continuous wear the jeans will develop wear/creases/marks etc unique to YOU. I saw some selvedged jeans in Uniqlo recently so I grabbed a pair. After a few weeks there are no signs of wear, but I’ll try to remember to post an update in 6 months or so.
CREEPY MUCH?
Do you ever feel like you’re being watched?
Now I get that feeling every time I come home or when I step out the front door. My neighbours put this on their balcony across from my front door and I can’t help it catching my eye every time.
