My Soundtrack

Movies have soundtracks, right? Characters have music that accompanies them, tells the people around them what the mood of the scene is, gives us some hint of their personality and their feelings. But why should characters in movies have all the fun? When I go running I like to have my own soundtrack – mostly things borrowed from action movies, because if there is a time when you should feel like a superhero, it’s running for miles before most people are even awake. But I also like having my own soundtrack while I’m just walking around the city, or going about some mundane task like writing. Give it a try, find your theme music.

I really have to stop this.

Almost every day, I had to stop by the snack store.

And I am not talking about just 1, but at least a few.

Recently, even though the Japanese snack seems SOOOOO healthy and delicious compare to the US sugar junk,

I am starting to あきる 。。。

And with the 8% sales tax now, really have to rethink my “lunch overspending” habit.

So poor …

The snow was not all bad for me.

Snowing is romantic, but only when if you can mostly stay indoor or VERY CLOSE to home.

The TV was broadcasting crazily about the heavy snow and all,

but compare to the -70 degree celsius that I had when I was in Minnesota,

the amount Tokyo had was like a child’s play.

But cute.

Yes, this photo is from March.

This year, during March, Tokyo has been snowing …

A couple days the snow was SOOOO full that it completely covers all streets.

Sometimes it gets really tall.

But after a few days, when it melts, only the hardest “snow” left.

That meant “ice”.

残り生きるのは、いつも the toughest モノだよね、と感じる。

This photo is actually from last month.

As you can see, it is about Valentine Day.

I almost did not notice it because it was soooo unnoticeable …

… on a very hidden wall.

The message is cute, extra food for couples …

But how sad it would be for ppl who just had their heart broken and see this …
