Tokyo Game official site is opened. I have a ticket but I won't go, because it's crazy crowded.
I heard about a handmade Zori often recently, it would be a trend of Lohas life. I found a site to tell how to make, It would be comfortable to make them from towels (and I could polish the floor too).
Jojo's ipod ad. Oh Cool.
Great! Do you use a nose pore clear patch? I have this black one, but I am not sutisfied with its job. He felt the same and he use a super glue. ha ha ha but it woked very fine. I won't use it though.
I found the site that collects foreigners’ comments about "what did you change after living in Japan".
I sleep on the floor.
In the bar, I order "beer". In the UK I ordered the beer brand.
I drink cold green tea.
I go to the convenience store about 8 times a day, to pay bills, to get toilet paper, to buy movie tickets, to buy food, etc.
I use a shoulder bag. I didn't think I would use it at any rate but I need it because my pocket is so full.
I use tissue more because I can get free tissue around the station.
I eat rice more.
I lost my sense of humor, and can sleep in the train and stop smoking.
I read more books because I use trains.
I care about fashion more.
I got to love very hot baths.
Ha ha, interesting.
.
Remember those, self-confidence can be yours. Take it!

Hi there --- after Japan, I can no longer wear shoes in my house. Also, I love dried squid, Happy Turn crackers, and Java brand curry mix from Japan, ---and I drink sencha all day, every day. Luckily, there's a store here where I can buy these things...

Thanks for the zori instructions. I noticed many different books with the instructions in various bookstores in Japan this summer, but they all cost 800-1500 yen. Hooray for free!

That's the same brand of pore cleaning patch I use, except they only sell white ones in the US.

Hi I update some dead link.
The rope is regular packing vinel rope. I think any rope is okay, if it's strong. :-)

Thanks for the JoJo iPod ad. I love JoJo's.
The nosejob is also very amusing.
ありがとうまりさん。 ^_^

Any chance of getting the homemade zori instructions in English? I know it looks pretty self-explanatory, but what kind of rope are they using for the base?

Mari,
The link to your "black one" [nose pore cleaner] doesn't work :-(
Thanks for a great blog!!

Hey, can you get us the link for the website you mentioned, the one with the comments made by foreigners about how Japan changed them? Probably I'll find people with similar opinions there... Japan really changes people.
