...Only in the states...

some of the stuff you can only "see" in the States.
Gotta love it.



*something can still be out on the racks at ROSS...even if it comes down to discount price of
.49 cents....wow.


*Finding huuuge jugs and gallons of milk
in the Dairy cases....yup.
.

*The oh-so-great BULK Bins...being able to purchase
even certain pastas and grains by the pounds.
Gotta love this.



*Well, this one is just for your viewing pleasure...
the gorgeous beach breeze....aaa.
LOVE IT.

what the hell is this weather...!?

having a hard time adjusting back to the super huge difference in the weather.
Coming from California's prolly one of the nicest seasons, pseudo-summer time, then coming into the sticky humid rainy hot summer weather of japan simply really takes it outta you.

i havent been able to sleep for about 4 days now, and its almost gonna be about 5 days since ive been back. so do
the math....im sorta zombie-ing around. its too musty to go jogging so i try to go for walks yet it can get hot and i feel dizzy just from the warm breeze. it seriously feels like im walking inside an sauna everywhere i am.
i think rite now, at least for this week, is gonna be my recooperation week.

Got done with Becky's bridal shower invites! YAY!!! love it. =)


some items ive found the day or 2 after i arrived to Japan:
epitome of the miniature world & what goes inside the crazy vending machines.


a lil baby seal shaped sesame-salt shaker
(with the drawing of a hand on the package to show its like a 'miniature seal in your hand') ;
Only in Japan will you ever see green colored SHISO-leaf flavored Pepsi. I dont drink soda so
cant try it but hey, something new.
