With what? School works?

Me too... I miss hanging out with my friends around Akiba...
And I miss becoming a tutor for some girls in my old school.. (Oh.. Shi!?... I said it...)
 
Yeah school and some other stuff, recently bought myself some good books I've been spending my time with, and got a visitor staying for a while, who is now out somewhere with fam

Ah, Akiba
Used to go there quite a bit but Meguro & Nakameguro is where we chilled all day every day, Meguro sta. Atre side das whassup
 
So you'er alone now in the house?

Every body has their own way to chill out.. If I don't go tutoring I usually Chill out around Akiba searching for some games and costumes... Some times I also made some thing (Cake, sweets and other things...) with my friends... I miss them so much...
 
Yeah, alone right now, gonna go out soon

I'm missing friends and fam around the world right now, was just digging my memories album on the other hard drive, found this pic, a sight once you leave Fune-no-kagakukan station..
Personally I disliked being in Tokyo but it really depends on who you are, not where you are.
But man did I love Odaiba, favourite place in Tokyo

Don't want to make it too personal but if you want, I will (^v^)

Hmn.. Pictures.. huh.. I'll guess I'll search for some of my picture while I'm there...
Tough I left all my stuff that I bought in Japan in Japan (Laptop, Phone, clothes...) and now they are in Qatar... I guess I'll ask my uncle to send some if he can...

It was mostly a suggestion or thought.

I just like to see people's pictures or what they saw through their eyes.

You don't need to do it.

Aight, though maybe I'll drop some pics in the irl thread, the ones from my phone. Being the Indonesian I am and a touch of rising sun thinking I have plenty of food and flower pics (●^o^●)

Haha... culture is always great especially when pertaining to food. I love flowers as well~
 
I think I'll make a slideshow later, my assignments and grades are all in so here's more free time, but tonight I'll be out..

Currently digging through my hard drives where the pictures from my old phones are (>∀<)
But for now, this one is for you !! I don't actually remember the name but I'll ask dad when he comes back from work (●´∀`人´∀`●)
They're flowers that appear in the summer... Really really pretty

Thank you so much.

I guess it's nice to discuss serious issues while balancing them with some light-hearted topics.

Very clean and well-kept shop. ^^

Bored when walking to school pics

BTW...
These two aren't taken on the same day, I have pics like these all over the place ヾ(*´∀`*)ノ
Just thought these two are pretty reasonable as the other ones have friends in them

The water looks crystal clear... and the trees stand so strong and tall. (unlike my area) :x

We'll learn and enjoy whatever you post. Take your time. ^^

I guess some people like to 'debate' about things like economic issues... not too sure.

Haha I barely know anything about economics, all I know is that 95EUR makes 100 JPY, which is ridiculous ヽ(*´Д`)ノ
Back in the days, 1EUR made like 140JPY

Anyways, i have at least 500 different pictures of the Meguro river on my phone, place I passed every day, yet I feel like a tourist or countryside boy seeing the pretty place for the first time every day (。・`ω´・)

Bit blurry, and this one wasn't taken with my phone either I think.
Was taken at around May 2010

Havent poked this thread in a while xD Hmm so would that not talking about negative things be effecting that?
 
Indeed haha

I'm a bit tired to write anything new at the moment but of course still open to questions (●´・∀・`)
I've received a "personal" question about this via PM the other day so if anyone asks something they would rather not have others see hit me up with a PM or mail ( ゝω ・)

Just wanted to say if anyone from Euro (actually pretty much a lot of other places in the world), right now is a pretty spicy time to go to Japan - 1 EUR = +/- 95 JPY.

A few years ago I could get over 160JPY for a euro (゚´Д`)

so would that not talking about negative things be effecting that?

Sorry I'm not sure if I get that question completely m(_ _)m
 
Hmm that "dont display negative thoughts or feelings" that you were talking about. Would it be one of the reasons the japanese dont "stand up?"
 
I'm no expert on this
But change isn't really a big topic in Japan, you rarely hear any complaining "this should be like this" or "this should be like that".

But I suppose in this case with all the influence from the internet, social media (as said in the news report), people start to recognise the threat, and some things you just can't ignore, you know?
