Ken's day in the life

Cold

Wed, 19 Nov 2008 22:16:27 +0900

Ive got a cold and also its cold today!!

Today is one of the coldest for this year~ I am happy (cuz snow season is just around the corner) but its not good for me right now because of my cold...

I predict its gonna be the best year for snowboarding this season!
cant wait to go snow.
And its much better if our highway system will be changed to flat rate system.
That would be fantastic. If this raw accept, then I can go to Hokkaido for 1000yen.
how nice is that!

Golf

Mon, 10 Nov 2008 22:00:02 +0900

This is our new hobby, I have been thought Golfing is for the old farts.
But once I tried it, oh-yah it is fun.
Specially when I get a clean hit, it feels great!

Change - YES WE CAN!

Mon, 10 Nov 2008 21:55:23 +0900

After Obama won the election, I thought the US dollar got back a bit.
But there was not so much change at the moment.

And I am a bit worried about the world recession.

As long as our company pays me my salary, it is OK.
But if they became a tightass, its a bad sign,isnt it!

I hope world economy gets back soon.
YES WE CAN!

Oh yahhh- I just got a ipod Nano 8G green.
It is COOL!

Our company had a BBQ party and I was an organizer. I had a budget for the game.
I decided to buy a ipod, Wii + Wii fit, electric toothbrush(real good one USD180), home bakery and so on. I spend USD1,800 for the prize.

Anyway we did a BINGO game after BBQ. I won a ipod and Sophie won a electric toothbrush. I think we did a pretty good job!

Now Im playing with my new ipod, I cant believe this mini device can do so many things.
I downloaded some snowboarding videos and new video podcast! awesome!
This will be my best travel mate to going to the states from tomorrow.

Today is my Last 20's

Tue, 23 Sep 2008 18:25:29 +0900

Think about my life, it has been pretty good.
But my last day of 20's is about to finish...I will be 30's from tomorrow! ouch

When I was a kid, I thought if I will be 30y/o, it will be something different!
Some of you guys are over 30s and I guess you think same as me now.

Our brain is still early 20's but our body became uncontrollable... Body fat is hard to remove, specially side belly,,,damn it!

Anyway, cant think to write more now.

This wkd, we will go indoorsnowboaring, I am dying for snowboading now.
I wish there will be heaps of snow this winter!

Fishing

Tue, 23 Sep 2008 18:17:57 +0900

Today we were planning to go fishing to north Kyoto bay.
I set the alarm at 4:30, but I couldnt wake up somehow....maybe too sleepy and then felt I dont wanna go fishing today...
So we slept in until 8:30! bummer...

When we woke up, we are still a bit low energy today. So we went to our relatives home to give our honeymoon gift. and saw our ancestors.
After we had done all the must things, we went to go fishing to the lake close by.
I got a couple black Bass fish, but Sophie could not get any even she used the new fishing gear.

Now back in home and wait for the dinner which will be YAKINIKU( japanese BBQ) farrrrk yar! LOL

Honeymoon in Hawaii, blast and nice

Tue, 16 Sep 2008 23:26:56 +0900

Heaps of fun at Hawaii.
Sophie and I had a blast there. Good honeymoon for us.

First 6days we spent time in Maui, we went to snorkeling and driving and having fun at beaches. Good food, Hawaiian dancing etc...not many japanese around there.

And then we headed to Oahu, waikiki where all the japanese tourist go.
I was totally shocked when I see the Waikiki, 60% of population seems like japanese tourists... and lots of shopping things...
So I prefered to Maui or somewhere a bit quite. But Sophie was happy to do some shopping there as you know all the girls loves shopping.

anyway we caught up with our friend, Tanaka san there. We cruised around Oahu island.
Actually northshore was pretty nice and cozy. specailly in this season, there are not many ppl. I really wanted to see the huge waves but in summer waves are not big at all.

OK now please check out some pics below!
