日本から持って帰ってきたこれがおいしい。
粉状になっているお茶が中に入っていて、水やらお湯やらミルクと混ぜて飲む。コーヒーばっかり飲んでるけど、たまにはこういうのもいい。
一保堂は京都のお茶屋さん。私は都内デパートの地下で買ったけど。

Love this green tea powder. You just mix this with water, hot water, or milk and voila! You have a cup of good green tea drink. Easy and tasty.
Shopped at Ippodo in Tokyo. This tea shop originally started in Kyoto almost 300 years ago.
Photos taken this summer.

Yebisu - the best beer in Japan.
日本、ヤバイ暑かったけど楽しかった。
東郷さんに会いに行って来た。
都心から１時間弱で行けるお手軽ハイキングの場、高尾山。
Mt. Takao - a 600m-high mountain less than 1 hour by train from the centre of Tokyo. Great for one-day hike.
のんびりしてきた。山の上はやっぱり涼しい。虫は苦手だけど、山は好きな矛盾している自分。
ムササビがいる事で有名なんだけど、彼らは夜行性なので昼間は見れず。

Azuki (red beans) Frappuccino. This is Japan-only Frappuccino and really good. I probably like it more than I like Green Tea Frappuccino.
携帯電話ないとなーと思って、去年の春に使っていた電話機をauショップに持って行って契約しようとしたら、「年割入れ」「６ヶ月以上使わないと違約金」とか言われてもうゲンナリ。客の囲い込みに必死？
さて、この夏使う携帯、ドコモは元々眼中にないし、ソフトバンクもイメージ悪い。ウィルコムも年割入らないとダメだし、残るはプリペイドだけ。そしてまともに使えるプリペイドはソフトバンクのだけ。
ソフトバンクなのは100歩譲るとして、プリペイドってネット使えないのよね。不便だなー。むしろ電話として機能しなくていいからネットだけは…。
さて、どうしよう。なくても困らないかな。
Ok, I thought I should write about this.
On May 9, 2007, there was a gang-rape incident in Osaka, Japan.
A woman went into a steak restaurant called Pepper Lunch in Shinsaibashi, Osaka, to have a late night meal and was served with a stun gun, sleeping pills, kidnapping and gang-rape. She was kept at a garage until somehow managed to escape next morning. A manager of the restaurant, Daisuke Kitayama, and an employee, Masanobu Miyake, were arrested while they were working at the restaurant like nothing ever happened.
There are so many things to argue about this awful incident.
First, from what I hear, there aren't enough media coverage on this incident. I have always had a great deal of distrust in Japanese media (journalism? whaaaaa?) but seriously, WTF!? Is there anything they have to hide about the incident, the company or those criminals? There wasn't an official news release of this crime until 17th of May. It happened on 9th!
Second, those criminals totally planned this. The garage they used to bring her into and keep her was rented before that day. It's possible they've done similar crimes before.
Third, a parent company that owns Pepper Lunch Shinsaibashi, Pepper Food Service, has the same restaurants all over Japan but they are all operating as usual. Well, I guess you could argue that those other stores do not have to close just because of an evil-doing of one store and the company did post an apology notice on the other stores. But I say this company just doesn't care, especially since it restarted its commercials on the media already.

いくつかのメロディー聞くと日本が恋しくなる。私鉄と東京メトロばっかり利用してるけどさ。
